Transcript
00:00Mama, help! Mama! Mama, help! Mama!
00:06Leoannis!
00:12Children of Arya, you have offended the sea god Poseidon.
00:18As penitents, you must be sacrificed.
00:21Lycius, where are you? Please save our children.
00:25You could have had a rich husband, and you threw it all away.
00:30For a fisherman! Arya, no one is coming to save you!
00:38Begin the sacrifice!
00:41Help, Mama!
00:49No!
01:03As the son of Poseidon, my father sent me to the mortal world. Let me see if it's worthy of
01:09me.
01:15Arya, do you have any idea what father handed you? Lord Thorn, a life most girls would kill for. And
01:21you ran? On your wedding day?
01:29Lord Thorn made his offer clear. Marry him, and the family gets three armed merchant ships.
01:34So spare me your tears.
01:36You will marry him for the family.
01:39For the family?
01:40For the family? You drugged me. You'd trade my life for ships and call it honor? Father, Lord Thorn is
01:4680. He can't even walk. Four of his wives are already dead. If I marry him, I die.
01:52And this is how you repay him? By whining like a spoiled little brat?
01:56Oh, come on, sister. Lord Thorn practically owns the docks. Marry him, and you'll be drowning in money.
02:03Then take him yourself! But no! You get the handsome high priest! Now you want to dress me up and
02:09sell me to some old monster? I'm your daughter! Not a sacrifice!
02:19In the name of Poseidon himself, I'll die before I marry that man.
02:25Hiding among humans all these years, I've never seen a woman like her. Interesting.
02:29Enough! You are in no position to negotiate!
02:39Fine! You won't take lore give you to that filthy dock rat standing right there!
02:56Ugh! Look at him! Carrying that filthy harpoon! He's making the whole room reek!
03:00Fools. I am the Crown Prince of the Seas. And these mortals dare call me a fisherman.
03:10You're coming home with me.
03:13Now!
03:14No!
03:29I'll marry him.
03:31Crazy! The eldest daughter of a noble house marrying a fisherman?
03:35Can you blame her? After her mother died, the Count remarried almost immediately. She never had a chance.
03:40Still better than him.
03:42Still better than him.
03:42You idiot!
03:43You marry this man and you'll be sleeping in the streets.
03:46Dear Arya, you're an Andras, and you'd throw it all away for a fisherman? How embarrassing!
03:51I'll give you one more chance, Arya. Come, marry Lord Thorn.
03:58I'm done with noble blood. I'll marry him. Will you take me?
04:09Yes.
04:09You!
04:11You!
04:12You dare!
04:18Are you sure about this?
04:20Yes.
04:21I'm sure.
04:30Lysius.
04:31I'm so hot. I can hardly breathe.
04:35I can't breathe.
04:36I can't breathe.
05:03Aria. Tonight, you belong to me. Only me.
05:25Lysias. Olympus needs you. Come home. Now.
05:31Olympus is in turmoil. I have to go. Something's wrong at home. I have to go. Wait for me, Aria.
05:42Lysias never came back. And when I got pregnant, my family cast me out.
05:53Five years, Lysias. Where did you go?
06:27My son, you ended the war.
06:31Atlantis stands because of you. From this day on, you are its god now.
06:37Yes, father.
06:51Father, if I may. I would like to return to the mortal world.
06:56Why?
06:58Someone is waiting for me. Someone dear to me. My wife.
07:06Now that's what I wanted to hear. You're my only heir, Lysias.
07:10But if this mortal woman gives you a child, then she secured the future of Atlantis.
07:15Open the vaults. Bring out our finest treasures.
07:18If my son has chosen her, Atlantis will honor her like a queen.
07:23I've been away too long. She's probably cursing my name by now.
07:27I should go make it up to her.
07:28My boy. Time moves differently here.
07:33She's been waiting for you for five years.
07:37Gods, no! Aria!
07:47Your eminency, High Priest.
07:49It is of the highest honor to have you here to bless our maiden voyage.
07:54Naturally, High Priest Rake is very voice of the sea god in the mortal realm.
08:05A gift from the High Priest. For your house.
08:10And heavens above, what a treasure! Praise the High Priest! Praise the sea god!
08:15My lord, Camilla is blessed to have you. A match like this, it's more than we could have hoped for.
08:22Let us go inside. The maiden voyage ceremony is about to begin.
08:27Look at her. House Andra's precious firstborn. Now begging for scraps with a fisherman's name.
08:34And two kids on her hip with no father in sight. No wonder the whole city laughs when she passes.
08:41Move it! The ship launches today. If I see one speck of dust, I'll skin you alive.
08:46Don't you dare blame us! You've been sitting around all day while my children and I do your work.
08:52They're only four years old.
08:55You watch your mouth. Talk back to me one more time and you can forget about getting paid.
09:07Lyceos, our children have never met their father. Please, come back to us.
09:16Sis, the more we help, the easier it is on Mama, okay?
09:21Leo's right. I'm not tired. Not even a little.
09:25Mama does everything for us, so I'm gonna help her too.
09:37My dress!
09:40Wait, we're sorry!
09:43You little fatherless bastards! Look what you've done!
09:46Ah!
09:51Do not touch them!
09:53It was an accident!
09:55Well, well.
09:56My poor sister.
09:59Your husband ran off right after the wedding.
10:02Now you're here with your two little bastards, scrubbing floors like a servant.
10:08God, she smells so awful!
10:15Lysios didn't run off! He will return! I know it!
10:19Still clinging to that little fantasy? God, you're pathetic.
10:25Get off my mommy!
10:28Enough, Camilla! Forget that bitch and her brats. The maiden voyage banquet is starting.
10:34Everyone's waiting to offer their prayers to the sea gods trident.
10:37Why don't we have my dear sister come and pay her respects too?
10:41Maybe if you pray hard enough, your deadbeat husband will wash up on deck.
10:46Shhh!
10:57That statue feels kind of familiar.
11:02Yeah. Anne feels it too.
11:05Shhh!
11:10By the gods, do you feel that? The air to the sea god is near.
11:16Reiko, supreme sea god!
11:18Your people offer tribute to you!
11:20Bless our voyage and protect our ship!
11:27Arya, don't just stand there. You're insulting the sea god.
11:30Are you trying to drag this whole family down with you? Get moving!
11:35Are they insane? That trident is just ceremonial.
11:39It'll shatter the second the sea god's blood kneels to it.
12:03My air is near. I can feel it.
12:27The trident has shattered! The sea god's rage is on us!
12:34Great and mighty sea god!
12:36We beg your forgiveness!
12:44Now, who among us dared to anger the great sea god?
12:51It was them! Those filthy little bastards cursed the launch!
12:55No! We did nothing! Leave us!
12:58Gods, if the sea god curses us, we're ruined!
13:05You've plagued this house!
13:10You should have married Thorne.
13:12You ran off with some dock rat.
13:15Now his little brax angered the gods and cursed our business!
13:19You'll pay for this!
13:20Rake, let the sea have them.
13:22Maybe then the sea god will remember who his loyal servants are.
13:38No! Stay away from them!
13:51No!
14:01No!
14:02No!
14:04No!
14:04No!
14:05No!
14:27Leave them alone!
14:29Help!
14:30Quit your whining.
14:32To die for the sea god is the greatest honor you'll ever get.
14:37Let them go!
14:38They're just children!
14:39Take me instead, please!
14:51Lycios, where are you?
14:53Please save our children.
14:55Will you take me?
14:57Yes.
14:57Are you sure about this?
14:59Yes.
15:01I'm sure.
15:02Something's wrong at home.
15:04I have to go.
15:05Wait for me, Arya.
15:07You could have had a rich husband, and you threw it all away for a fisherman.
15:13Arya, no one is coming to save you.
15:20Begin the sacrifice!
15:29No!
15:54How dare you!
16:11The wrath of the sea god is upon us!
16:13Mercy!
16:14Mercy!
16:15Mercy!
16:18Leo!
16:19I will not allow these people to question my divine authority.
16:32The sea god does not protect heretics!
16:34For the sacrifice to be rejected, these half-breeds must be even more vile than we thought.
16:41It's her!
16:42It's her!
16:43It's because of Arya!
16:47Look at her!
16:49She brought those filthy little bastards into this world.
16:52She's the stain!
16:53She's the curse!
16:54And as long as she's breathing, the sea god will keep punishing us.
16:57So don't stop with the children!
16:59Throw her in with them!
17:01Let the sea take all three!
17:02Yes!
17:03She dies too!
17:04Calm the gods!
17:08No!
17:09Get your hands off them!
17:11You lowborn disgrace!
17:12I should kill you where you stand!
17:22Enough!
17:30Who are you?
17:31How dare you interrupt!
17:36Lyxias!
17:38Arya...
17:39I'm sorry.
17:41Where are our children?
17:43Here.
17:43They're...
17:44They're here.
17:45They were so scared.
17:46They just...
17:47paused out.
17:49Our children?
17:50Wait!
17:50You?
17:51You're...
17:51You're the fisherman from five years ago?
17:53You reek of the docks!
17:55No name.
17:56No rank.
17:57No invitation.
17:59And you still dare set foot here?
18:00You really think the sea god won't punish filth like you?
18:04Arya, you tell me right now!
18:05Who is this man?
18:07He is Lyseos, my husband, and the father of our children.
18:11You stupid, ungrateful girl.
18:13If you anger the sea god and ruin our trade, I'll make every one of you pay!
18:19Divine law forbids the gods from interfering too much in the mortal world.
18:23Otherwise, I would kill every last one of them.
18:27Do...
18:27Do you have any idea who I am?
18:30I am the wife of the High Priest?
18:32How dare you look at me like that!
18:34One more step, and I'll condemn you in the sea god's name.
18:39You?
18:40A liar wrapped in holy robes?
18:43Don't make me laugh.
18:48Since when does the sea god speak through frauds?
18:51Ha ha ha.
19:15He just attacked the high priest
19:25Lysias...
19:26Don't worry, I've got this
19:34Who dares?
19:48What are you idiots waiting for?
19:50Take him now!
20:02Your Eminency!
20:03The Supreme High Priest has summoned everyone to the Lord Mayor's estate
20:06Now, he says it can't wait
20:13How fortunate
20:21Enjoy your luck while it lasts, Doc Rat
20:24Cross the temple again
20:27And you won't walk away
20:30Let's go
20:43I'm so sorry, Arya
20:46This is all my fault
20:47I knew you would come back
20:49I always did
20:49That's all I needed
20:51Because I know that you love me
20:53I never meant to be gone so long
20:54Shh
20:56It doesn't matter now
20:58You're here
21:11Who are you?
21:13Big brother
21:14I feel like I know him
21:16He feels... safe
21:21I'm your father
21:34Come with me, Arya
21:36No more begging
21:37No more fear
21:38No more them
21:39You and the kids are mine to protect now
21:42And I promise you
21:44No one gets near you again
21:48Where are we going?
21:57Atlantis?
22:04Atlantis?
22:04The kingdom of the sea god?
22:06I thought that was just a legend
22:09That's right
22:11That is where I'm from
22:13Wait
22:15Then you...
22:22Looks like I'll need to prove it.
22:27Wow.
22:28He really is a god.
22:45Do you believe me now?
22:52Yes.
23:20You think you're walking away?
23:22Not after putting your hands on me.
23:24When we get to that estate, I'll make sure everyone sees what happens to a rat who strikes a priest.
23:30No!
23:34What is this? Why can't I move?
23:37Keep the money. Keep the house. Keep all of it. I want nothing from this family.
23:45But I'm taking my mother's necklace. The sapphire one. I'm not leaving without it.
23:52Your mother's necklace? What makes you think we'll give it to you?
23:56That necklace is mine. It always has been.
23:59Oh, you can have it. Just pay what you owe.
24:02House Andres doesn't store precious jewels for free, you know.
24:0510,000 gold coins. Call it a holding fee.
24:07And if your broke little fisherman can't pay up, then none of you are leaving.
24:13That necklace belonged to my mother. I have every right to take it back. What holding fee could you possibly
24:18charge?
24:19Oh, please. The day you ran off with that fisherman, father was done with you.
24:23You're not Andros anymore, Arya. You're nobody. Just another woman from the docks, begging at our door.
24:29You want the necklace? Pay for it. No coin, no sapphire.
24:33So either open your purse, or take those little braps of yours and crawl back to the docks.
24:42What's wrong? Don't tell me your fisherman husband can't even find a coin in his pocket.
24:48No, of course he can't. He could gugg fish for the rest of his life and still not afford the
24:54floor he's standing on.
24:5510,000? That's what all this fuss is about? I could buy this house, your name, and every fool still
25:03clinging to it. And I wouldn't even notice the loss.
25:06Oh, please. Everyone, did you hear that? The fisherman thinks he's...
25:35Yes, yes, impressive, I know. I had it brought in for Camilla.
25:38Only the best for my bride.
25:42Of course! The high priest is the only one in the country who could emag such impressive treasures.
25:49And you, you filthy little fisherman? You would honestly try to steal credit for Rake's gift? Disgusting! Do you even
25:56hear yourselves?
25:58You liar! My daddy wouldn't make stuff up!
26:02You're certain this belongs to you?
26:05There is no way a fisherman could possess treasures like this.
26:08Of course! Who else's would it be? I am the high priest! My word is sacred!
26:15Rake is the voice of the great sea guard himself.
26:19Guards!
26:22Remove this lying fisherman. He has insulted the high priest.
26:38Who dares lay a hand on my daughter-in-law?
26:45You! How dare you enter the Andrus Manion unconcited! And who are these miscrements you've brought with you?
26:53I am Lyceos' father. I have come to bring my daughter-in-law and my grandchildren home.
27:00So you're the penniless fisherman's father? Huh! Sure, you can take her, once you cough up 10,000 gold coins.
27:07Otherwise, no one steps out that door!
27:16Dear gods, what am I even looking at? This is... This is impossible!
27:23The Lord Mayor's vault wouldn't even fill a corner of this. This isn't wealth. It's a kingdom!
27:29Impossible! How could a few stinking fishermen possibly possess all this wealth? It has to be fake!
27:39I am Poseidon. Know your place.
27:44Rake, you said this was your gift. Go on. Say it again.
27:50No, no, no. He's going to expose me.
27:54Rake, do something!
27:55Enough!
27:58These people are liars. Blasphemers. They've insulted the gods and mocked the priestship. Seize them! All of them!
28:21Rake, it's time you face the truth. I am the new sea god of Atlantis.
28:29Lord sea god, forgive us! We were blind! Sparehouse Andras, I beg you!
28:36Mercy! Your grace! Mercy! We didn't know! We didn't know!
28:43The fisherman I looked down on. Was the god above us all?
28:49He's a fraud! Kill him, and I'll reward you beyond your dreams!
28:58Enough! You ignorant, blaspheming fool!
29:10Great lord of the seas, please forgive me.
29:16Most holy father! There must be a mistake! He's just a lowly fisherman!
29:22Shut your mouth! That trident carries the sea god's own power. No trick can fake that!
29:27You stupid, faithless fool! You're standing before the sea god himself, and you dare run your mouth?
29:36Rake, you're done. No title. No robes. No holy name to hide behind. And Camilla goes down with you. From
29:47this moment on, every door that opened for you will close. No power. No protection. No mercy. Just the truth
29:54of what you are. Criminals. And the world will know it.
30:00Sister, please! Don't let him do this! I beg of you! I was wrong! I was wrong!
30:07You tried to murder my children, Camilla. You're no sister of mine.
30:12And House Andreas. You abused my wife, then tried to offer my children as sacrifice. Then the sea will shelter
30:21you no more.
30:22Oh! Not my money! Not my ships! Everything I built is gone!
30:27No! I can't be poor! I won't live like that!
30:31No!
