[Ashitaka arrives at Iron Town's main gate, carrying an unconscious San. A gate guard holds out his hand to stop him.]

Sir, I can't let you pass. The gate's been ordered shut. It can't be opened.

[Ashitaka walks past him. Two guards with rifles move to bar his path.]

Turn back, please.

We're grateful to you for bringing those men back to us. We don't want to hurt you.

Please!

I walked in through this gate this morning. Now I'm going to leave the same way.

[Ashitaka begins to try and open the gate]

Don't be a fool. It takes ten men to open this gate.
[Slowly, but surely, Ashitaka pushes the gate open with his cursed arm]
