00:00:08A mortal dares stand in the way of the Black Marsh.
00:00:15In the name of Olympus, face divine wrath!
00:00:21That thunder, Zeus, you were reborn as a mortal?
00:00:26Kneel before the power of Olympus.
00:00:31You can't save them!
00:00:33The Wendog has already smelled royal blood. Tonight the curse will devour Orion's soul. The royal court will belong to
00:00:42him.
00:00:45That fight drained too much power. I can't force the thunder again anytime soon.
00:00:50Lord Ethan, your former master left this marriage block for you. Lady Seraphina of the Silver Deer Clan can help
00:00:57you reach the heart of Northern Power.
00:00:59I just came back alive from the Black Marsh and now you bring me a marriage pact? Get to the
00:01:03point. What is the Wendigo?
00:01:05The Wendigo devours souls, corrupts the royal bloodline and uses a royal body to return.
00:01:20The royal court gave you ten years. Herbs, offerings, gold, hunting grounds. I gave you everything you asked for.
00:01:28And after all this time, you still don't even know what's wrong with my father.
00:01:32Princess Alara, please show mercy! King Orion's condition is unlike anything we've ever seen. There is nothing we can do!
00:01:38Failing to cure him is not the crime. Lying to this court is.
00:01:43Orin, send the royal blood oath decree to the forest, the lake clans, the wastelands and the western tribes.
00:01:49As you command.
00:01:51Whoever saves my father will be bound to me by a royal marriage pact.
00:01:55The royal court's granaries, the northern hunting grounds, the salt mines and three fur trade routes will all be his.
00:02:00Princess Alara, once that decree goes out, every clan will come for it.
00:02:04Then let them come. If my father wakes, I will stake the entire royal court on it.
00:02:10The black marsh spirit is dead, but the curse remains. Someone here brought the Wendigo in.
00:02:16Orin, whatever it takes, find someone who can save my father.
00:02:20Princess Lyra, the blood oath decree has already gone out.
00:02:25Hold on.
00:02:27Stranger, who are you?
00:02:29Ethan, a forest healer.
00:02:32The royal court needs someone who can save the king, not a wandering healer selling tricks at the gate.
00:02:37Ten years ago, your father collapsed once, at the black marsh border.
00:02:44Since then, every new moon and full moon, he falls into a coma.
00:02:47Tonight, once the moon rises, the Wendog curse will eat through his life force.
00:02:51How do you know that?
00:02:53Because this is not an illness. It is the Wendog's curse.
00:02:58One step too late, and the man you're trying to save won't be a king. He'll be a corpse.
00:03:06You're saying my father is cursed?
00:03:09The black marsh Wendigo feeds on souls. The king has no wound on his body, but his soul is being
00:03:16eaten piece by piece.
00:03:17For ten years, the royal court has called healers from every land, and none of them dared make that claim.
00:03:23Why should we believe a stranger with a bag of herbs?
00:03:26Because I just came back from the black marsh.
00:03:29These coins are enough to get you out of the borderlands. If you're just trying to survive, go now, and
00:03:34I'll pretend we never met.
00:03:38You're kind, but kindness won't save you.
00:03:41What is that supposed to mean?
00:03:42Every month, the pain comes back. Around the full moon, it burns so badly you can barely breathe.
00:03:48Princess?
00:03:49You and your father carry the same black marsh curse. You're young, so you can still endure it.
00:03:53King Oron won't last past her moonrise.
00:03:55Can you really save him?
00:03:56Yes.
00:03:59Fine. I'll take you in. If you remember this, you lie to me and my sister will make sure you
00:04:03die inside the royal court.
00:04:06Lead the way.
00:04:11Father, when you led the northern clans into the black marsh, everyone lowered their heads at the sound of Ash's
00:04:17war horn.
00:04:18Now every enemy is watching the royal court. If you don't wake up, I'll have no choice but to offer
00:04:23myself through the royal blood oath decree.
00:04:26I'm not afraid of marrying a stranger. I'm afraid you'll never wake up.
00:04:37Princess Alara, we can cure King Orion.
00:04:45Princess Alara, don't lose hope. I can save King Orion.
00:04:51I am Selona, High Healer of Bonecraft. At your service, Princess Alara.
00:04:56This is Mira, a master of sacred runes, and Rowan, a spirit curse healer.
00:05:02Welcome, healers.
00:05:04We came in responses to the royal blood oath decree.
00:05:08Princess Alara, if we wake King Orion, will we truly receive the granaries, the northern hunting grounds, the salt mines,
00:05:14and the fur trade routes?
00:05:15I do not break my word.
00:05:18Then you have nothing to fear, Princess.
00:05:20With me here, the King will wake.
00:05:23Then I place my father's life in your hands.
00:05:26I've heard Mira never needs more than three runes.
00:05:29Let's see if that legend holds.
00:05:31The more runes I can bear, the stronger the healing I can channel.
00:05:35An ordinary patient needs one. A gravely wounded royal needs three at most.
00:05:39The runes show the King's body is unharmed.
00:05:45But his life force is almost gone.
00:05:48I have practiced healing for decades. I've never seen a condition like this.
00:05:53Mira, I gave you the first chance, and you wasted it.
00:05:57Step aside.
00:05:59Three breaths. That is all I need to wake the King.
00:06:01Then please begin. My father's life depends on you.
00:06:09His breathing is steady, but the life inside him is nearly gone.
00:06:15Even my bone healing arts cannot wake him.
00:06:20Forgive me, Princess Alara.
00:06:22Even the high healer of bone craft can do nothing?
00:06:24Princess Alara, don't lose hope yet.
00:06:27They may not see the answer.
00:06:30I still can.
00:06:37I can bring the King back from the edge of death.
00:06:40This is my clan's strongest curse pearl.
00:06:44If King Orion has even one breath left, I can pull him back.
00:06:53Stop it.
00:06:59You dare interrupt the King's healer? Do you have any idea where you are?
00:07:03Sister, his name is Ethan.
00:07:06He said he can cure father.
00:07:08So I brought him in to try.
00:07:10This is not a village market.
00:07:11A wandering healer has no place near the King's bed.
00:07:15A forest healer in a ragged cloak thinks he can decide King Orion's fate?
00:07:19Sister, I didn't believe him at first either.
00:07:21But the moment he saw me, he knew about the pain I've been hiding.
00:07:24He isn't an ordinary healer.
00:07:26He understands healing arts and he can see curse energy.
00:07:29Father won't survive until nightfall.
00:07:31I can't just stand here and wait for the ancestors to take him.
00:07:34Princess Alara, three healers from the sacred altar are standing right here.
00:07:38Bringing in an outsider is not seeking help.
00:07:41It is an insult.
00:07:42He doesn't even carry a complete sacred mark.
00:07:45A man like that can't summon sacred light.
00:07:47You checked his breathing.
00:07:50But you missed the real curse.
00:07:51Your light can heal flesh.
00:07:53It can't reach a soul that has already been hollowed out.
00:07:59The royal court would rather trust a stranger from the forest.
00:08:02Then we have no reason to accept this royal blood oak decree.
00:08:05Rowan, please stay!
00:08:07Your name has reached the West Bank and even the North.
00:08:10I believe you can wake my father.
00:08:12As for him...
00:08:15Remove this man from the king's chamber.
00:08:18Guards! Take him out of the royal court!
00:08:23Sister!
00:08:24They can't hurt me.
00:08:26If Princess Alara refuses to listen, I'll leave.
00:08:29But after I'm gone, King Orion will not survive tonight's moonrise.
00:08:34When that happens, not even the gods above will be able to pull his soul back!
00:08:39Trying to scare us with old ancestor tales now?
00:08:42I doubt you can even say what illness King Orion has.
00:08:46Of course I can't. Because King Orion is not sick at all.
00:08:53King Orion has been unconscious on that bed, and you claim he isn't sick?
00:08:57Lying in front of a king takes nerve.
00:08:59You're just a wandering healer trying to make your name through the royal decree.
00:09:04Ethan!
00:09:06If you can save father, prove it now.
00:09:09If my sister's oath is not enough, I am willing to join the same marriage pact with you.
00:09:15So that's it.
00:09:17You came for the marriage pact and the royal court's lands.
00:09:20With the three of us here today, we'll expose him for what he is.
00:09:24And show the royal court that healing arts are not something anyone can fake.
00:09:28I thought you simply couldn't break the curse.
00:09:30I didn't realize you couldn't even see it.
00:09:32He is under the ancient Wendigo curse.
00:09:35The Wendo curse? What is that?
00:09:36An ancient evil spirit from the depths of the Black Marsh.
00:09:39It feeds on souls, fear, greed, and the blood of kings.
00:09:45At first, the cursed person sleeps, fears the cold, and dreams of black antlers.
00:09:50Then the soul is eaten away piece by piece.
00:09:53Once the soul is gone, he may never truly wake again.
00:09:56The Wendaw will wear the king's body and sit on his throne.
00:09:59Then the border royal court will fall into chaos.
00:10:02Every clan will turn on the others.
00:10:04Impossible.
00:10:04You expect the Ash Court to believe that story just because you said it?
00:10:09Princess Alara, remove him at once.
00:10:11The royal decreed and the honor of the Ash Court cannot be dragged down by some wandering fraud.
00:10:17But...
00:10:17Father's symptoms match everything he said.
00:10:23Ethan, please save my father!
00:10:25Don't touch him yet.
00:10:27According to the old altar scrolls,
00:10:29the Wendig curse is forbidden magic from the deepest part of the Black Marsh.
00:10:34But that curse was sealed inside the Black Marsh 50 years ago by the northern clans.
00:10:38It should not exist anymore.
00:10:40How would a forest healer know about it?
00:10:42Princess Alara, I suspect he was sent by the Black Marsh.
00:10:45He may be the one who brought this curse into the royal court.
00:10:48A fraud like him should be hanged!
00:10:50Ethan, who are you really?
00:10:52Princess Alara, trust me and I will save the king.
00:10:55Refuse me and I walk out of the royal court.
00:10:58Sister, if he were with the Black Marsh, he would not have stopped Rowan's curse pearl.
00:11:02The three healers have no answer.
00:11:04Right now, he is our only chance.
00:11:06If Princess Alara trusts a fraud, the royal court may pay the price for it.
00:11:11But, in ten years, no one has ever named my father's symptoms this clearly.
00:11:17Ethan, I'll give you one chance.
00:11:21For Princess Lyra's trust, I will save King Orion.
00:11:27This room is not safe for removing the curse.
00:11:29If you want him saved, Princess Alara must come with me to the royal bedroom.
00:11:36I knew it! You were never here to save the king.
00:11:39You had your eyes on the princess from the start.
00:11:41I have trained at the sacred altar for years.
00:11:44I have never heard of a cure that must be performed away from everyone else.
00:11:47Princess Alara, he's using the king's illness as an excuse to get close to you.
00:11:51To draw the Wendigo out, I need someone from his bloodline.
00:11:53When royal blood is near, the curse will leave King Orion.
00:11:56If anyone interferes, the curse will panic and panic, finish consuming what's left of the king's soul.
00:12:02Absurd!
00:12:05You lying fraud!
00:12:07I'll expose you right now!
00:12:11Not bad for curse work.
00:12:13Too bad you're not strong enough.
00:12:15Ethan, I'm father's daughter too.
00:12:17Can my bloodline draw the curse out?
00:12:19Yes.
00:12:20Sister, let me go.
00:12:22As long as father wakes, I'll accept any punishment, even if I'm dragged through the streets in chains.
00:12:27You're not going.
00:12:28Sister!
00:12:29I am your older sister and I am the one holding this court together.
00:12:33It should be me.
00:12:34Oren, take six ironclad knights and guard the door.
00:12:37If anything happens to me, seize Ethan immediately.
00:12:40As you command.
00:12:41If I don't come out, you take control of Ash Royal Court.
00:12:44Put your hands where they don't belong and I'll kill you before I go to my father.
00:12:47I only save lives.
00:12:49Take the king to the royal bedroom.
00:12:51We begin before moonrise.
00:12:52Until the ritual is over, no one enters.
00:12:57If that door opens, the curse will be startled. King Orion will die.
00:13:02What do I do?
00:13:05Take off your robe.
00:13:06What?
00:13:08Say that again.
00:13:10Remove the outer robe.
00:13:12Unfasten the silver bone belt.
00:13:16Ethan, I gave you a chance to save the king, not a chance to insult my family.
00:13:23The Wendigo follows royal blood.
00:13:25That is how we draw it out.
00:13:28The more you are covered, the harder it is for the curse to sense your bloodline.
00:13:32It won't come out.
00:13:33Every word you say had better be true.
00:13:48See that?
00:13:52Is that enough?
00:13:54Not yet.
00:13:55Move closer to the fire.
00:14:01It senses you.
00:14:04Then let it come out.
00:14:06My body still can't withstand the thunder.
00:14:09But divine light shall be enough.
00:14:11If it hurts, make a sound.
00:14:15Save the advice.
00:14:17Blood of the crown, draw it out.
00:14:21Soul flame, hold it here.
00:14:24It's looking at me.
00:14:26Don't let it reach your eyes.
00:14:29Leave her!
00:14:32Ethan, hurry.
00:14:35Come out!
00:14:45Princess Lyra.
00:14:46Princess Alara is locked inside the royal bedroom with an outsider.
00:14:50Are you truly not worried?
00:14:53My sister gave her order.
00:14:55Until the ritual ends, no one enters.
00:14:57Princess Alara is the current ruler of the royal court.
00:15:00If anything happens to her, Ash royal court will fall apart.
00:15:03Princess Lyra.
00:15:04Aren't you afraid he'll take advantage of your sister?
00:15:08My sister trusts him.
00:15:10So do I.
00:15:14Sister!
00:15:15Princess Lyra, did you hear that?
00:15:17That outsider may be hurting Princess Alara.
00:15:20The royal family can still save its honor.
00:15:22Stop him now before it is too late.
00:15:24If you keep waiting, the entire Ash royal court will regret it.
00:15:29Until the ritual is over, no one enters.
00:15:32My sister said no one enters before the ritual ends.
00:15:35I trust my sister.
00:15:36No one can force her into anything.
00:15:40Sister?
00:15:41You heard that.
00:15:42That does not sound like healing.
00:15:45The High Princess's bedchamber is no place for a filthy peasant to satisfy his sick desires.
00:15:51If you don't go in now, it will be too late.
00:15:56Don't let it reach your eyes!
00:15:59Eyes?
00:16:00Princess Lyra, Princess Alara may already be in danger.
00:16:03Without Princess Alarsa's order, the door stays closed.
00:16:08If I don't come out, you take control of Ash royal court.
00:16:13Auryn.
00:16:14Princess Lyra.
00:16:15Open the door.
00:16:16But Princess Alara said...
00:16:18I am in command of the Ash court now.
00:16:22Open it.
00:16:26Stand back!
00:16:28Stand back!
00:16:41Sister!
00:16:43Careful!
00:16:44Come out!
00:16:47Sorry.
00:16:48Look at me.
00:16:49Don't look at it.
00:16:57Now!
00:17:01Sister!
00:17:02Ethan!
00:17:03Let go of the Princess.
00:17:04Now!
00:17:09Take your hands off me!
00:17:12The ancient Wendigo curse has truly returned.
00:17:16The Black Marsh seal could not have broken on its own.
00:17:18Someone inside the royal court released the Wendigo.
00:17:23Sister, are you hurt?
00:17:26Who told you to come in?
00:17:27I hurt.
00:17:28Princess Alara, we all saw what happened.
00:17:31That outsider removed your robe and put his hands on you.
00:17:34Sister, did he really save you?
00:17:36The curse was going from my eyes.
00:17:38He saved me.
00:17:41The curse is gone.
00:17:42Why has my father not woken up?
00:17:44His soul needs time to return.
00:17:46When the Cedar Fire dies down for the third time, he'll wake.
00:17:49Easy to say.
00:17:50And if he doesn't wake?
00:17:52If he doesn't wake, the Wendrig will rip this entire court apart and destroy all of us.
00:17:59This matter is finished.
00:18:01Finished?
00:18:01I still have an old marriage pact to settle.
00:18:04Marriage contract?
00:18:05You crossed a line with Princess Alara, and now you think you can leave?
00:18:09Until the King wakes, you are not taking one step out of here.
00:18:13Before King Arian wakes, you'd better stay.
00:18:15Otherwise, I can't promise you'll leave this room alive.
00:18:18If I want to leave, no one here can stop me.
00:18:22Stop.
00:18:24Stop.
00:18:26Father!
00:18:27Father is awake!
00:18:30Who is this?
00:18:32You weren't sick.
00:18:33You were under a Wendigo curse.
00:18:36A Wendog curse?
00:18:39Ethan removed the curse and saved your life.
00:18:43You're young, but your healing is extraordinary.
00:18:47Bring it in.
00:18:49This seal grants rights to the salt mines, and this is the border court's blackstone token.
00:18:54With this token, you will be treated as an honored guest of the crown.
00:18:58Thank you, your majesty.
00:19:00You saved my life, Ethan.
00:19:02Please accept this small token of gratitude.
00:19:06You are too kind, your majesty.
00:19:08I don't save people because of rank.
00:19:10I save them because I choose to.
00:19:12Since you have saved my father, I will honor my promise.
00:19:16I will honor the royal marriage pact with you.
00:19:20Princess Alara, I appreciate your kindness, but I am already bound by an ancient marriage pact with Lady Seraphina of
00:19:25the Silver Stag Clan.
00:19:26The appointed time is almost here. I should leave.
00:19:32It seems you and Ethan were not meant for each other.
00:19:35If that is so, I will not force him to stay.
00:19:38Ethan, from now on, whenever you need anything, the border court will stand with you.
00:19:44There is one thing I need your help with.
00:19:46The border court has power and reach.
00:19:48Help me find the one who released the Wendo curse.
00:19:51Help me put an end to that person and bring peace back to the northern clans.
00:19:54I will. I swear I will find whoever did this.
00:19:58I'll take my leave.
00:20:01Your Majesty, since you are safe now, we will leave you to rest.
00:20:05The three healers have done their part. Prepare a generous gift for each of them.
00:20:12Father, the curse has only just been lifted. You should rest. I can investigate where the Wendog curse came from.
00:20:18Alara, in the North, there has only ever been one enemy.
00:20:22The Black Raven Clan.
00:20:24In the North, only the Black Raven Clan stands as an equal to our court.
00:20:27But I never thought they would dare curse me under my own roof.
00:20:31Then it is time we settle the score.
00:20:34Wait!
00:20:35What is it?
00:20:36Ethan said he has an ancient marriage pact with Lady Serafina of the Silvestad Clan.
00:20:40But tonight, the Silvestad Clan's marriage pact is with Cassian, heir of the Black Raven Clan.
00:20:46Don't panic. The Black Raven Clan may have brought trouble on itself this time.
00:20:51Father, why do you say that?
00:20:52A hundred years ago, the Black Marsh curse was burned away by the thunder of the old gods.
00:20:58Few people now even know of the Wendigo curse, let alone how to break it.
00:21:02But Ethan, young as he is, saw the curse and pulled my soul back from the Black Marsh.
00:21:08He carries ancient thunder power.
00:21:10Ancient thunder? He really isn't an ordinary forest healer.
00:21:13Behind him there may be a god.
00:21:16If the Silvestad Clan truly holds his old marriage pact, then they have a blessing they may never deserve.
00:21:22The Silvestad Clan has grown weak over the years.
00:21:25All they know is how to bow to stronger clans.
00:21:28The Black Raven Clan controls the northern trade roads and iron mines.
00:21:31They have grown so arrogant they have forgotten the Ash Court.
00:21:34The Silvestad Clan will reject Ethan when he arrives.
00:21:38I'll go help him.
00:21:47The Silvestad Clan finally bet the nay.
00:21:49Marrying into the Black Raven Clan is Seraphina's good fortune.
00:21:51I heard she already had an old marriage pact.
00:21:53A pact from years ago. That won't stop the Black Raven Clan.
00:22:14The Silver Deer Chieftains are here.
00:22:20I heard Seraphina made an old marriage pact years ago.
00:22:23Then why is she entering a marriage alliance with the Black Raven clan tonight?
00:22:28The Black Raven clan controls the northern iron mines and trade roads.
00:22:31Who would dare refuse them?
00:22:32For a small clan, tying themselves to Black Raven is an opportunity others would kill for.
00:22:40My daughter Serafina was indeed saved by an outsider years ago.
00:22:44And the old chief of the Overstair clan did arrange an old marriage pact for her.
00:22:47But the man who swore that oath is long dead.
00:22:49As chief of the Silverstair clan, I will not allow anyone to use an old pact to trade on our
00:22:53name.
00:22:54The Silverstair clan is using Black Raven to survive while abandoning an old oath.
00:22:58Everyone should look carefully at whose banner hangs here before speaking.
00:23:02The Silverstair clan cannot afford Black Raven's wrath, and neither can any of you.
00:23:06If that forest haemur does not show up, the old oath can still keep what little dignity it has left.
00:23:12If he dares come, Black Raven will crush him into the mud.
00:23:17Who said they would crush me into the mud?
00:23:23Who are you?
00:23:24My name is Ethan.
00:23:25I have come to fulfill my marriage pact with Serafina.
00:23:31I didn't think you would actually dare come.
00:23:33A wandering healer from the Black Marsh border really thinks he can enter a marriage pact with Serafina?
00:23:37Even a mud-soaked nobody thinks he can look up at a silver gare now.
00:23:43Beetham, since you came, I'll make this clear.
00:23:46Your old marriage pact with Serafina is void.
00:23:48I, Aldric, declare it.
00:23:50Do you know the old Silverstair chief begged for this pact before the ancestral altar?
00:23:54The Silverstair clan is no longer what it was 16 years ago.
00:23:59Today, the Silverstair clan has tied itself to Black Raven.
00:24:02What are you, a wandering healer, compared to that?
00:24:04Our Serafina is going to marry Cassian, heir of the Black Raven clan.
00:24:08And you, some border healer with a medicine bag, think you can cling to her with an old pact?
00:24:12Look at yourself.
00:24:14Mud, blood, and poverty all over you.
00:24:19So the stray dog found a bigger kennel.
00:24:22No wonder it barks so loudly.
00:24:26Ethan, I'm warning you.
00:24:28Don't push this too far.
00:24:30You are just holding an old pact someone handed you, trying to force your way into the Silverstock clan.
00:24:37The Silverstock clan does not want to humiliate you completely.
00:24:41Take these coins and crawl back to the Black Marsh border.
00:24:45Ethan, someone shoved that old plot into your hands.
00:24:48That does not mean Serafina must marry you.
00:24:50The old chief who made that oath is dead.
00:24:53The Silverstock clan now answers to Aldric.
00:24:55You clearly don't understand.
00:24:57This pact carries a blood oath sworn before the ancestors and the old gods.
00:25:01Break it, and Thunder will answer.
00:25:03The Silverstock clan will pay in blood.
00:25:07Thunder will answer? Really?
00:25:10Ridiculous.
00:25:10Stop hiding behind old gods and dead men.
00:25:13Tonight this pact dies.
00:25:15And we can afford the price.
00:25:17Does Lady Serafina think the same?
00:25:30Yes.
00:25:36Ethan, you should not have come today.
00:25:40Lady Serafina, you also think I came here to use the Silverstag name?
00:25:45What else would it be?
00:25:49The Silverstag clan is returning to power.
00:25:51Now we are forming a marriage alliance with the Black Raven clan.
00:25:55You came dragging out an old pact from years ago because you want to use our name to force your
00:26:00way into northern robility.
00:26:01This old marriage pact exists, yes, but it was an old oath left by the former chief.
00:26:05The man who swore it is dead.
00:26:07Now my father rules the Silverstag clan, and I have already agreed to marry Cassian, heir of the Black Raven
00:26:12clan.
00:26:13He can bring the Silverstag clan back into northern power.
00:26:15You are nothing.
00:26:16You cannot give the Silverthag clan a future.
00:26:18I will be the Lady of Black Raven holt.
00:26:20And you are just a wandering healer from the Black Marsh border.
00:26:23The entire north stands between us.
00:26:25I have never seen someone make betrayal sound so dignified.
00:26:30Ethan, who do you think you are?
00:26:31You have no right to lecture the Silverstag clan.
00:26:34I would rather marry a dog from the stables than marry a man like you.
00:26:40You're just a border healer from the Black Marsh, and you really think the gods chose you?
00:26:45And you dream of marrying my daughter?
00:26:47Wake up!
00:26:48This pact was sworn by the Silverstag ancestors themselves.
00:26:52I did not come today to beg for your approval.
00:26:54I came to end this pact.
00:26:56Today, I withdraw from this pact.
00:26:58Once I severed it, the Silverstag clan will bear the consequences.
00:27:02Your banner will fall, and your bloodline will suffer.
00:27:04Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
00:27:05At my daughter's wedding feast, a border healer dares curse the Silverthag clan?
00:27:10Guards!
00:27:10Drag him out!
00:27:14Your disaster is already here, and you are still laughing.
00:27:19Ethan, enough!
00:27:20He brought this on himself.
00:27:32Someone is causing trouble inside Black Raven Keep?
00:27:38Let's see how a border healer plans to bring disaster on the Silverstag bloodline.
00:27:45On this land, there are nobles, vassals, and gutter-borne trash.
00:27:49The Black Raven clan stands at the top.
00:27:52The Silverthag clan is noble.
00:27:54And you, a border healer from the Black Marsh, think you can step into a noble wedding feast?
00:28:00Do you even deserve it?
00:28:02Who are you?
00:28:05Cassian of the Black Raven clan!
00:28:08Never heard of you.
00:28:10Do you have a death wish?
00:28:12Be smart.
00:28:13Cancel the contract and get out of Black Raven Heal.
00:28:15Otherwise, I'll skin you, and hang you on the Black Raven Gate.
00:28:23A pact witnessed by Ancient Thunder is not yours to touch.
00:28:28The Divine Thunder Healer's old oath, and a border healer like you thinks you can claim it?
00:28:32Cassian, who is the Divine Thunder Healer?
00:28:38The Divine Thunder Healer is the source of ancient healing arts.
00:28:41Legend says that power came from Zeus, king of Olympus.
00:28:45They say he hides in the ruins of Olympus.
00:28:47He can bring souls back and decide life or death.
00:28:50He can also summon thunder and cleanse Black Marsh curses.
00:28:56In the North, that name is forbidden.
00:29:03Sadly, that kind of power would never fall on a border healer from the Black Marsh.
00:29:11The Divine Thunder Healer?
00:29:15Does that power really exist?
00:29:21Then this contract...
00:29:23Anyone who falsely invokes the Divine Thunder Healer and offends the old gods of Olympus will suffer divine backlash.
00:29:28Even a royal bloodline can wither.
00:29:30Their banner will fall.
00:29:33If you steal Thunder's name, True Thunder will come to judge you.
00:29:36You're making it sound more dramatic than it is.
00:29:39But my healing is a little stronger than an ordinary healer's.
00:29:44I was talking about the Divine Thunder Healer.
00:29:47What does that have to do with you?
00:29:48Ethan, if you don't leave now, I really won't be able to protect you.
00:29:53Serafina, the former Silverstag chief, begged for this pack at the old god's altar.
00:29:58He knelt for seven days to secure it.
00:30:00It was a lifeline for the Silverstag clan.
00:30:02And this is how you treat it?
00:30:03Today, I, Serafina, turn my back on this old oath.
00:30:11What can you do about it?
00:30:15I will be the one to break this pact.
00:30:22We're destroying this worthless pact today.
00:30:26What are you going to do about it?
00:30:29The pact is broken.
00:30:32Zeus' punishment begins now.
00:30:37You really believe your own act, don't you?
00:30:42You think you're Zeus, Riorne?
00:30:46Zeus' punishment?
00:30:47The Silverstag clan is rising with Black Raven.
00:30:49You are the one waving around a torn old pact and scamming people.
00:30:52If anyone deserves punishment, it's you.
00:30:54Please.
00:30:55You spent too much time at the Black Marsh border,
00:30:57and now you think you can call down divine punishment?
00:31:04Ethan, open your eyes and watch closely.
00:31:06From this day on, I stand under the Black Raven banner.
00:31:09No one in the north can touch me.
00:31:11Even if Zeus' punishment exists, what can it do to the Silverstag clan?
00:31:15Zeus' punishment has already begun.
00:31:19Every member of the Silverstag clan carries the curse.
00:31:23You're hopeless.
00:31:24The Silverstag hunting grounds will fall.
00:31:26Your clan treasury will be empty.
00:31:29The salt mines, mountain roads, and fur trade routes will all be lost.
00:31:37The Silverstag clan is not some easy target.
00:31:40Who are you?
00:31:41A border healer to threaten me with loss.
00:31:43The Silverstag clan could crush you without effort.
00:31:47Ethan, this is all about money, isn't it?
00:31:50There's a full bag of gold coins in here.
00:31:52Enough for you to live on for the rest of your life.
00:31:58Take the money and leave.
00:31:59Don't delay my wedding with Lady Serafina.
00:32:04Stop it.
00:32:06You've seen one corner of the world and think you own the sky.
00:32:10Black Raven clan rules the north.
00:32:12If I want you dead, no one here will dare keep you alive.
00:32:16You're already at death's door, and you're still talking.
00:32:40Princess Alara!
00:32:42Speak.
00:32:43News from Black Raven Keep.
00:32:45Cassian publicly humiliated Ethan at the wedding feast.
00:32:48Cassian?
00:32:49The Silverstag clan also tore up the old marriage bat in public and tried to drive Ethan out of the
00:32:54keep.
00:32:54They dared insult Ethan?
00:32:56They must have a death wish.
00:32:58To Black Raven Holt.
00:32:59Now.
00:33:02Even with death staring you in the face, you still act tough.
00:33:06Today, I'll teach you how the north works.
00:33:16Zeus's punishment has begun.
00:33:20Zeus's punishment really happened.
00:33:22Could he really be Zeus reborn?
00:33:25The Silverstag clan offended Zeus reborn.
00:33:27They're finished, aren't they?
00:33:29Impossible!
00:33:30Zeus is the king of Olympus.
00:33:33Even Black Raven only knows his name from legend.
00:33:34How could this man possibly be Zeus?
00:33:38In front of me, the Black Raven clan is nothing but small men pretending to be kings.
00:33:44Ethan!
00:33:44What did you do to us?
00:33:47This is Zeus's punishment.
00:33:49You'd better start making peace with your gods.
00:33:53You're not leaving!
00:33:54I'll cut you down myself!
00:33:55The healer Phelan has arrived.
00:34:07Ethan.
00:34:08Phelan is one of the north's sacred healers.
00:34:11He serves the Black Raven clan.
00:34:12He has saved more lives than you've ever touched.
00:34:15With him here, your cheap tricks mean nothing.
00:34:18Master Healer Phelan is here.
00:34:20We're saved!
00:34:27I came with a gift.
00:34:28To celebrate the wedding of Cassian, heir of the Black Raven clan.
00:34:32Celebrate what?
00:34:33My bride's whole family was nearly killed by this Border Healer.
00:34:36Look at them!
00:34:38Now!
00:34:38Someone dares harm Lord Cassier's bride and her family at his own wedding feast.
00:34:42Bold!
00:34:42I'll warn you once, stay out of this.
00:34:44You can't save them, and you don't want to get dragged in.
00:34:47You look like you've studied healing for a few years.
00:34:50Too bad your heart has rotten.
00:34:51You dare curse people at Lord Cassian's wedding feast.
00:34:54Ethan, your cheap little tricks are nothing before Master Healer Phelan.
00:34:58Some people only learn when death is at their door.
00:35:01First Holy Seal.
00:35:03Open the body.
00:35:05Sacred Light.
00:35:06Drive out the curse!
00:35:08Second Holy Seal.
00:35:09Steady the soul.
00:35:10Life, return to the body.
00:35:14Third Holy Seal.
00:35:15Lock the darkness.
00:35:17Turn back death.
00:35:18Find the soul.
00:35:26Lord Cassian, the Holy Seals are complete.
00:35:29They're safe now.
00:35:31I really feel fine.
00:35:33I don't feel any pain at all.
00:35:35Master Healer, Phelan, your power is extraordinary.
00:35:38Ethan, this is real healing.
00:35:40A border healer like you can't compare.
00:35:42After coughing up that black blood, I feel so much lighter.
00:35:45The pain is gone too.
00:35:47Thank you, Master Healer Phelan.
00:35:49Your healing is unmatched.
00:35:52Lady Myra, your family were merely under a dark curse.
00:35:56I've suppressed it with Holy Seals.
00:35:58You're all fine now.
00:36:00Thank you, Master Healer Phelan.
00:36:02Ethan, you despicable border fraud.
00:36:05You dared put a dark curse on us?
00:36:07Kneel and apologize.
00:36:09Now!
00:36:10Master Healer Phelan has already exposed your little curse trick.
00:36:14Now it's time we settle our score.
00:36:16Exactly.
00:36:17You people truly are shameless.
00:36:19So now that you've been exposed, you're lashing out?
00:36:21I am Zeus Reborn.
00:36:23I don't rely on cheap curses.
00:36:26He only delayed Zeus' punishment for one minute.
00:36:32Stop trying to scare us.
00:36:34Give up now.
00:36:36Otherwise, I'll make sure there's nothing left of you.
00:36:39Your Holy Seals have some use.
00:36:42But Zeus' punishment cannot be undone.
00:36:45Young man, I admit your curse work is not bad.
00:36:48Too bad you chose the wrong path.
00:36:50All you know is how to scare people with cheap curses.
00:36:55Zeus may be the legendary king of gods, and his punishment may be feared.
00:37:00But no one alive has truly seen it.
00:37:03Every curse can be contained.
00:37:05Today, I'll show you.
00:37:06You'd better come over here and apologize.
00:37:09Otherwise, I'll teach you how to crawl like a dog.
00:37:15You're not worth my time.
00:37:19I'll talk.
00:37:20Lord Cassian, don't dirty your hands with this arrogant fool.
00:37:23Let me handle him.
00:37:24Leave him alive.
00:37:25I'm not done playing yet.
00:37:28Zeus' punishment begins in 30 seconds.
00:37:30Still playing God?
00:37:32I've practiced healing for over 30 years.
00:37:36I've seen every kind of trick.
00:37:38I'll seal your body and leave you crippled.
00:37:40Let's see how long you keep talking.
00:37:43Looks like Master Healing is serious now.
00:37:45That Border Healer is finished.
00:37:47What a shame.
00:37:48He's still young.
00:37:49He chose the wrong road.
00:37:50He brought this on himself.
00:37:52Ten seconds.
00:37:54At least you can count down to your own death.
00:37:59Three.
00:38:00First Holy Seal.
00:38:02Lock his legs.
00:38:16Second Holy Seal.
00:38:17Lock your throat.
00:38:19Let's see you keep playing God now.
00:38:22Third Holy Seal.
00:38:23Seal your whole body.
00:38:25Punish your arrogance.
00:38:27Kneel!
00:38:28One.
00:38:39This is impossible.
00:38:41You border heather.
00:38:43What did you do to me?
00:38:44Zeus' punishment cannot be reversed.
00:38:46Know your place.
00:38:52Is this Zeus' punishment?
00:38:55You really are Zeus' reward?
00:39:04What happened to Master Healer Felon was too strange.
00:39:06Was that really Zeus' punishment?
00:39:09Legend says Zeus commands thunder and rules life and death.
00:39:13Master Healer Felon dared stand against Zeus.
00:39:15No wonder this happened to him.
00:39:18Zeus?
00:39:19Him?
00:39:20Everyone, you've been fooled by his Black Marsh sorcery.
00:39:23Zeus' punishment?
00:39:23It's a scare tactic.
00:39:25That was clearly a forbidden Black Marsh spell.
00:39:26A lost curse technique.
00:39:27He is not Zeus.
00:39:28He is a Black Marsh heretic.
00:39:31That's right.
00:39:31My grandfather once spoke of the Black Marsh calamities.
00:39:34Those dark arts are known for disguising themselves as divine punishment.
00:39:38He used Black Marsh sorcery to impersonate Zeus.
00:39:40The Black Marks on the ground are proof.
00:39:42A man like this must be driven out of the North.
00:39:46Master Healer Felon served Blackrovan for years and saved countless noble bloodlines.
00:39:52And today, he was harmed by a Black Marsh heretic.
00:39:56If we allow a heretic like this to run free, today Master Healer Felon falls.
00:40:01Tomorrow it could be all of you.
00:40:03And your clans.
00:40:07Your parents, your wives, your children.
00:40:10He'll come for all of them.
00:40:13Are you done?
00:40:19Zeus' punishment owes you no explanation.
00:40:24Cast out the Black Marsh heretic!
00:40:26Protect the North!
00:40:28Cast out the Black Marsh heretic!
00:40:30Protect the North!
00:40:32Cast out the Marsh heretic!
00:40:33Protect the North!
00:40:39I'm curious.
00:40:40If this Black Marsh forbidden spell has been lost for years, how did you recognize it at a glance?
00:40:45Have you seen it before?
00:40:48Lord Cassian was right.
00:40:49This Black Marsh heretic is panicking.
00:40:52So now he's trying to pull others down with him.
00:40:54He's trying to pull the Black Raven clan into this.
00:40:58Everyone stay alert.
00:41:00Seize this Black Marsh heretic.
00:41:10Insolent Black Marsh heretic.
00:41:12You harmed my disciple.
00:41:17Surrender at once.
00:41:20Ethan.
00:41:22Your death has come.
00:41:30Another one coming to die.
00:41:42It's Master Healer, Aurarius.
00:41:44Felon's master.
00:41:45Avarius is nearly a hundred years old, and his healing is beyond anything we know.
00:41:49I heard that when he was young, he even received guidance from Zeus' legacy.
00:41:53That Black Marsh heretic is dead.
00:41:55Ethan, Aurarius is unmatched in healing.
00:41:57The North calls him a living saint.
00:41:59Now that he's here, you can wait to die.
00:42:02Compared with Zeus, I am only a mortal.
00:42:04The gap is beyond measure.
00:42:06Guided by Zeus' oracle, and still blind.
00:42:09Meeting you here must be fate.
00:42:10Young man, you may be gifted to master forbidden Black Marsh arts at your age.
00:42:14But you chose the wrong path.
00:42:15You harmed my disciple, impersonated Zeus, abused Black Marsh's source, and brought disaster to the North.
00:42:19For that you deserve death.
00:42:20You've lived all these years, and you still can't see who is standing in front of you.
00:42:23Insolent Black Marsh heretic!
00:42:25You've lived this long.
00:42:26How is your mouth still so reckless?
00:42:28Face me in three trials.
00:42:30If you win, I'll guarantee your safe exit from Black Raven Keep today.
00:42:34Use whatever tricks you have.
00:42:35No one has ever survived even one move from Aurarius.
00:42:39You're dead today.
00:42:42Good.
00:42:44Blood Mist takes shape.
00:42:46Bones of hatred rise.
00:42:48Nine shadows gather.
00:42:49Poisoned souls strike.
00:42:51Cheap tricks?
00:42:52And you dare show them to me?
00:43:01Holy seal, form the bones.
00:43:03Sacred light become chains.
00:43:05Triple lock.
00:43:06By the sacred altar, bind him.
00:43:08Boy, these are my sacred light chains.
00:43:11You're finished.
00:43:12Is that all you've got?
00:43:14Ancient wood, hear me.
00:43:16What?
00:43:16Sacred vines awaken.
00:43:17Life returns to the root.
00:43:18Earth, bind his body.
00:43:20Green vines, hold him fast.
00:43:21Go!
00:43:28This is my ancient wood spell.
00:43:31Once the sacred vines bind the body, not even a beast can break free.
00:43:36Let's see how you escape this time.
00:43:49Sacred light or ancient wood, before me it all turns to dust.
00:43:58That Black Marsh heretic is brutal.
00:44:00He broke Master Healers Aurelius' ancient wood spell.
00:44:02Are you done?
00:44:04Are you done?
00:44:05From this day on, I formally end my marriage pact with the Silverstag clan.
00:44:09From this moment on, we have nothing to do with each other.
00:44:13I am Zeus reborn.
00:44:15If you don't believe me, go ask King Orion.
00:44:18Ethan, cursing people and pretending to be Zeus was bad enough.
00:44:21Now you dare use King Orion's name too?
00:44:23I didn't expect a border healer like you to know so much.
00:44:25Yes, King Orion did wake up today.
00:44:28But the man who saved King Orion could never be a Black Marsh heretic like you.
00:44:32Even Averius may not be able to break King Orion's Wendiglo curse.
00:44:35You?
00:44:35How could you possibly have saved King Orion?
00:44:37We should seize this Black Marsh heretic before he spreads more lies and causes more trouble inside Black Ravenhole.
00:44:44Guards!
00:44:45Take this Black Marsh heretic down.
00:44:53Let's see who dares.
00:44:57Anyone who disrespects Lord Ethan.
00:45:05Isn't that Princess Alara, eldest daughter of the Royal Court?
00:45:07I heard Ash Royal Court and the Black Raven clan have been at odds for years.
00:45:11Why would she come here?
00:45:12Princess Alara just called him Lord.
00:45:15Was he really the one who woke King Orion?
00:45:17Princess Alara, the Silverstag clan should have welcomed you properly.
00:45:20Please forgive us.
00:45:21Princess Alara, today we caught a Black Marsh heretic pretending to be Zeus reborn.
00:45:25He even claimed he saved King Orion.
00:45:27Since you're here, we'll leave him to you.
00:45:29Princess Alara, it has been a long time.
00:45:31I heard King Orion woke today.
00:45:33I haven't had time to visit and congratulate you.
00:45:35How about this?
00:45:35I'll hand this fake Black Marsh heretic over to you as a congratulatory gift.
00:45:38You say he is a Black Marsh heretic pretending to be Zeus reborn?
00:45:42Exactly.
00:45:43This Black Marsh heretic used dark sorcery and killed Felon, the Black Raven clan's personal healer.
00:45:47He also badly injured Master Healer Aurarius, Felon's master.
00:45:50Everyone here witnessed it.
00:45:51I, Cassian, swear I'm telling the truth.
00:45:53Princess Alara, this man is a Black Marsh heretic.
00:45:56Please decide what should be done with him.
00:45:57Are you finished?
00:46:02King Orion woke because Lord Ethan saved him.
00:46:08You called the man who saved the king a Black Marsh heretic?
00:46:15Anyone who dares touch him again becomes an enemy of Ash royal court.
00:46:25Open your eyes and look carefully.
00:46:28This is Lord Ethan, the man who saved my father.
00:46:31He really is the one who woke King Orion.
00:46:33Princess Alara herself confirmed it.
00:46:34We wrongly accused that Black Marsh heretic.
00:46:36No, we wrongly accused Lord Ethan.
00:46:39How is that possible?
00:46:40Princess Alara, could you be mistaken?
00:46:42He's just a border healer from the Black Marsh.
00:46:45How could he have saved King Orion?
00:46:47This man knows Black Marsh sorcery.
00:46:49He knows how to deceive people.
00:46:50He is no true healer.
00:46:53What?
00:46:54Should Lord Ethan have invited all of you to stand there and watch while he saved my father?
00:46:57I call you princess out of respect for Ash royal court.
00:47:01Today you came to my wedding feast and humiliated my bride to be in public.
00:47:04Tomorrow, will you bring soldiers into Black Raven held and trample our banner?
00:47:08Today, no matter who comes, this border healer stays here.
00:47:12You truly don't know when to stop.
00:47:16Ash royal court is nothing...
00:47:17I have never feared the Black Raven clan.
00:47:24Listen carefully.
00:47:25Lord Ethan saved my father today.
00:47:27He is the benefactor of Ash royal court.
00:47:30Disrespect him, and you disrespect Ash royal court.
00:47:33Lord Ethan, let's go.
00:47:36Wait!
00:47:39Wait.
00:47:42Even if Ethan saved King Orion, he still cursed my bride's family and injured the Black Raven clan's personal healers.
00:47:48That is also a fact.
00:47:50Allara, you may leave.
00:47:51I won't stop you.
00:47:53But Ethan stays here.
00:47:54You reminded me.
00:47:55I still have unfinished business with the Silver Stair clan.
00:47:58You still dare talk big!
00:48:00The Silver Stair clan has not survived all these years by being scared.
00:48:02You're only hiding behind Princess Allura.
00:48:04Have you forgotten you're just a border healer?
00:48:06Isn't hiding behind power what the Silver Stair clan does best?
00:48:09Ethan, don't push your luck.
00:48:11Don't think Princess Allura's presence means you can walk out that door.
00:48:14A nest of fools walking into death.
00:48:16Zeus's punishment.
00:48:25You still dare attack?
00:48:27They broke the ancient marriage pact with their own hands.
00:48:30This is the punishment they earned.
00:48:35Do you still think this is Black Marsh sorcery?
00:48:47Lord Morvaena, the Black Raven clan wants Ash Royal Court's salt mines and forests.
00:48:52But they refuse every offer we make.
00:48:55Please plant a curse in that old king.
00:48:57Let me take Ash Royal Court for myself and fulfill my ambition.
00:49:05Darion, do you have a death wish?
00:49:07How dare you tell me what to do?
00:49:10I wouldn't dare.
00:49:12Everything will be as you command.
00:49:13Have your son bring Lady Seraphina of the Silver Stair clan back here.
00:49:17Once I use her Frost Bloodland to forge the final curse seed, you'll get your reward.
00:49:20Cassian is at the wedding with the Silver Stair clan right now.
00:49:23In less than an hour, Seraphina will be brought deep into Black Raven hope.
00:49:26After that, she is yours.
00:49:30Divine punishment, so that's what happened.
00:49:33Zeus reborn helped King Orion pull out my curse.
00:49:38Wait.
00:49:40If you rush to your son's wedding feast now, you may still bring him back in one piece.
00:49:45Otherwise, not even a god can save him.
00:49:47Remember this.
00:49:48Do not provoke the young man with the medicine gulp.
00:49:51You cannot up to cross him.
00:49:52Thank you for the warning, my lord.
00:50:00Father, mother, what's wrong, mother?
00:50:04Don't scare me.
00:50:07Seraphina, are you alright?
00:50:09Ethan, you vile coward.
00:50:11You did this to my family.
00:50:13You...
00:50:14Serafina, don't talk.
00:50:16Breathe.
00:50:18Cassian, my chest hurts.
00:50:21I can't hold on.
00:50:24If I die, I'll be in the hospital.
00:50:27Seraphina!
00:50:28This is what happens when you break an ancient marriage trap.
00:50:32What?
00:50:33You want to try too?
00:50:34If I don't kill you today, my name isn't Cassio.
00:50:40Stop!
00:50:44Ethan, my father is here.
00:50:46You're dead.
00:50:49Do you know who my father is, men in the north?
00:50:51Darion, chief of the Black Raven clan.
00:50:54One of the most ruthless men in the north.
00:50:56Under him, the Black Raven clan has taken plenty of salt mines and forests.
00:50:59Now they dare stand against Ash Royal Court.
00:51:01Darion is ruthless.
00:51:02People who offend him tend to disappear without explanation.
00:51:05Be careful.
00:51:06So what?
00:51:07What happened here?
00:51:10Father, you have to stand up for me.
00:51:12My wedding feast with Seraphina was going perfectly.
00:51:15Then this border healer named Ethan ruined everything.
00:51:18He used Blackmar sorcery to hurt people.
00:51:20He left the Silverstag family half dead and badly injured Master Healer Felon and Master Healer Aurarius.
00:51:25I wanted to hold him accountable, but Alara keeps protecting this Blackmarsh heretic.
00:51:29Father, now that you're here, you have to make this right!
00:51:33Is that true?
00:51:34Every word!
00:51:35If I lied, may thunder strike me down!
00:51:39Chief Darion, the Silverstag clan broke an ancient marriage pact and insulted Lord Ethan.
00:51:44Zeus' punishment fell on them.
00:51:45They brought this on themselves.
00:51:48Or are you only listening to your son's side?
00:51:51No, father.
00:51:52You know me.
00:51:53I never start trouble outside.
00:51:55It was this Blackmarsh heretic who attacked innocent people.
00:51:58He hurt your future in-laws.
00:51:59If I let this insult stand, everyone will think the Black Raven clan has no strength left.
00:52:06Are you here to avenge the Silverstag clan and defend your son too?
00:52:11If you rush to your son's wedding feast now, you may still bring him back in one piece.
00:52:15Otherwise, not even a god can save him.
00:52:18Remember this.
00:52:19Do not provoke the young man with the medicine gourd.
00:52:21You cannot have to cross him.
00:52:23Thank you for the warning, my lord.
00:52:26Father, you have to stand up for me!
00:52:28You Blackmarsh heretic!
00:52:30You die today!
00:52:40Father, what are you doing?
00:52:42He hurt our people!
00:52:44You hit me instead of him?
00:52:46How many times have I told you, keep your head down outside.
00:52:49There is always someone more powerful.
00:52:52If Lord Ethan hadn't shown you mercy today, you would already be dead, with nothing left to bury.
00:52:57Father, you're out of your mind!
00:52:59This Blackmarsh heretic hurt our people first!
00:53:01He started this!
00:53:02That slap was for being too blind to recognize divine power.
00:53:07Father, have you lost your mind?
00:53:11That slap was for causing trouble and never learning your lesson.
00:53:14Father, what are you doing?
00:53:16He...
00:53:17And that slap was for your arrogance.
00:53:19You almost destroyed the entire Black Raven clan.
00:53:34What?
00:53:34Darion chief of the Black Raven clan is kneeling before a border healer?
00:53:38My father has never bowed to anyone.
00:53:40Father, people kneel before the Black Raven clan.
00:53:43How can you kneel for him?
00:53:45Shut up!
00:53:46Do you know who he is?
00:53:50Lord Ethan, this is the seal to the Black Raven treasury.
00:53:54There are 100,000 gold coins inside.
00:53:56Consider it my son's apology gift.
00:53:58And the matter of the Silver Stag Clan?
00:54:00The Silver Stag Clan broke an ancient marriage pact and mocked a power they didn't understand.
00:54:04They sealed their own fate.
00:54:07What happened today will never leave this room.
00:54:10The Black Raven clan will make sure this never affect Lord Ethan.
00:54:13Lord Ethan, please accept the treasury seal.
00:54:17You think this is enough to buy your son's life?
00:54:23The Black Raven clan also has ancient relics, mine deeds, warhorses, and jewels.
00:54:28Please accept them all, Lord Ethan.
00:54:30I only ask you to spare my son today.
00:54:34Father, are you insane?
00:54:35You're kneeling and apologizing to our enemy?
00:54:39Guards, lock him up.
00:54:42Father!
00:54:44Lord Ethan, does this arrangement satisfy you?
00:54:48You have more sense than he does.
00:54:49Fine.
00:54:50I came today only to end the Silver Stag Marriage Pact.
00:54:52The rest of our debts can wait.
00:54:55Thank you for sparing us, Lord Ethan.
00:55:06If anyone leaks a single word of what happened today,
00:55:09if anyone leaks a single word of what happened today,
00:55:12you'll kill them.
00:55:16Princess Alara,
00:55:18did you come to Black Raven Hope because King Orion's curse returned?
00:55:22Father is well.
00:55:24Thank you for asking, Lord Ethan.
00:55:26After you left the royal court,
00:55:27Father learned that Seraphina's marriage partner tonight was Cassian.
00:55:30The Black Raven clan is a top power in the north.
00:55:32They are not as strong as Ash Royal House,
00:55:34but they cannot be underestimated.
00:55:36After the Silflog clan tied themselves to Black Raven,
00:55:39they became even more argant.
00:55:41Father was worried you would be humiliated here,
00:55:43so he sent me to help you.
00:55:45These two families are blind.
00:55:47They failed to recognize your true identity and nearly harmed you.
00:55:50It's nothing.
00:55:51What can a few Black Ravens and Silver Stalks do to me?
00:55:55Princess Alara,
00:55:56you came here for another reason.
00:55:58Father sent me to investigate the one who released the curse.
00:56:01We have a lead.
00:56:02Lord Ethan,
00:56:03please return to the royal court with me.
00:56:05Ash Royal Court truly rules the north.
00:56:07You found a lead this quickly.
00:56:10Lord Ethan,
00:56:11please.
00:56:15How many times did I tell you to keep your head down?
00:56:18But you never listen.
00:56:19Now look at this.
00:56:20The wedding feast is ruined.
00:56:22The Silver Stag clan is half dead.
00:56:24How do you plan to clean this up?
00:56:31She's just one girl from Silver Stag.
00:56:33Is she really that important?
00:56:35There are plenty of clans in the north
00:56:36dying to marry into Black Raven.
00:56:38Are you telling me it has to be Seraphina?
00:56:40What do you know?
00:56:41Seraphina has a rare frost bloodline.
00:56:44Lord Morvain specifically wanted her.
00:56:47Bringing her into the Black Raven clan
00:56:49was the most important part.
00:56:50Your arrogance and blindness ruined something that mattered.
00:56:53Is it really that mystical?
00:56:55I don't believe the Black Raven clan
00:56:57falls apart without Seraphina.
00:57:00And today was already enough.
00:57:02Zeus reborn.
00:57:03Divine punishment.
00:57:04Now some Black Marsh curse lord shows up too.
00:57:06Does this ever end?
00:57:08Lord Morvain,
00:57:09my son is reckless
00:57:10and speaks without thinking.
00:57:12Please forgive him.
00:57:12I will find another way
00:57:13to bring Seraphina back.
00:57:15Father,
00:57:16you're the chief of the Black Raven clan.
00:57:18Even King Aron fears you.
00:57:20Why are you kneeling to this masked man?
00:57:27What did you do to me?
00:57:31Teaching you to keep your mouth shut.
00:57:35Please spare my son.
00:57:37Darian,
00:57:38have you forgotten
00:57:39who raised the Black Raven clan
00:57:41to where it is today?
00:57:42I would never forget.
00:57:44Without your help,
00:57:44the Black Raven clan would be nothing.
00:57:46Please spare my son.
00:57:47As chief of the Black Raven clan,
00:57:48you couldn't even bring me Seraphina.
00:57:50Perhaps the Black Raven clan
00:57:51no longer deserves my support.
00:57:52Father,
00:57:53help me.
00:57:53Mercy, my lord.
00:57:54I've served you faithfully for years.
00:57:56Please give me one more chance.
00:57:57You have one more chance.
00:57:59Fail again
00:58:00and you die.
00:58:01Command me, my lord.
00:58:02I will do whatever it takes.
00:58:05King Orion's second daughter,
00:58:07Princess Lyra.
00:58:09She carries royal blood,
00:58:10soul flame,
00:58:11and Black Marsh curse energy.
00:58:12She is an even better vessel
00:58:14for a new curse seed
00:58:15than Seraphina.
00:58:15Princess Lyra
00:58:16is inside Ash Royal Court.
00:58:18The guards there are tight.
00:58:19She is not in the royal court.
00:58:23She is in the east tower
00:58:24of your Black Raven clan
00:58:26right now.
00:58:28In 15 minutes,
00:58:29I want her standing before me.
00:58:31Otherwise,
00:58:32you know what happens.
00:58:33I understand.
00:58:34I understand.
00:58:39Lord Ethan,
00:58:40you're here.
00:58:41Please sit.
00:58:42No need for formalities.
00:58:44Treat this as your own home.
00:58:45King Orion,
00:58:46didn't I tell you to rest?
00:58:48Why are you pushing yourself?
00:58:50Thanks to you,
00:58:50Lord Ethan,
00:58:51I'm already much better.
00:58:54When you treated me,
00:58:56you said the illness
00:58:57came from the Wendigo curse.
00:58:59You asked me to investigate
00:59:00who planted it
00:59:01and tell you once
00:59:02I found a lead.
00:59:03I came as soon
00:59:04as I found something.
00:59:05King Orion,
00:59:06speak plainly.
00:59:08Ten years ago,
00:59:09when my mother passed away,
00:59:11Ash Royal Court
00:59:12had just begun rising.
00:59:14We were blocked
00:59:15at every turn.
00:59:15On my way back
00:59:16to the Royal Court,
00:59:17I met an old man
00:59:18in a black robe.
00:59:18He said we were faded
00:59:20and gave me a jar
00:59:20of Black Marsh herbs
00:59:21for free.
00:59:22He told me the herbs
00:59:23must not be boiled
00:59:24or drank.
00:59:25If the herbs
00:59:26weren't for drinking,
00:59:27what were they for?
00:59:28To place at the bedside
00:59:29and ward off evil.
00:59:31And then?
00:59:32Then,
00:59:33everything began
00:59:33going smoothly
00:59:34for Ash Royal Court.
00:59:37After that,
00:59:38it became one of
00:59:38the strongest courts
00:59:39in the North.
00:59:40Lord Ethan,
00:59:40you truly see
00:59:41through everything.
00:59:42From that day on,
00:59:43I would lose consciousness
00:59:44from time to time
00:59:45until I met you,
00:59:46Lord Ethan.
00:59:47Those were not
00:59:47soul-calming herbs.
00:59:48They carried
00:59:49the window curse.
00:59:50The price of Ash Royal Court's
00:59:51rise was the royal bloodline
00:59:53being drained
00:59:53while the court
00:59:54was destroyed from within.
00:59:59Lord Ethan,
01:00:00you saved my family's lives.
01:00:03After I woke up,
01:00:04that jar of Black Marsh
01:00:05herbs disappeared.
01:00:07I searched my memory
01:00:08and found a clue
01:00:09to that person.
01:00:11We learned
01:00:11that the last place
01:00:12he appeared
01:00:13was the Black Marsh border.
01:00:15The Black Marsh border?
01:00:17Isn't that where
01:00:18the Wendigo is sealed?
01:00:19I remember now.
01:00:20When that old man
01:00:21in the black robe
01:00:22gave me the Black Marsh herbs,
01:00:23he asked me
01:00:24if I wanted revenge.
01:00:29Revenge?
01:00:30What was that about?
01:00:31Back then,
01:00:31the herbs and gold coins
01:00:33meant to save
01:00:34my mother's life
01:00:35were stolen
01:00:35by bandits on the road.
01:00:37Her treatment
01:00:38was delayed.
01:00:39In the end,
01:00:40she still passed away.
01:00:45So that was when
01:00:46you met the old man
01:00:47in the black robe?
01:00:48I was in despair
01:00:48when I met him.
01:00:50The first thing he asked
01:00:51was whether I wanted revenge.
01:00:53Did you ever see him
01:00:54again after that?
01:00:56Never.
01:00:57So he knew
01:00:58what you wanted most.
01:01:01I remember something else.
01:01:02Father,
01:01:03please tell us
01:01:03everything at once.
01:01:04That old man
01:01:05wore a black robe
01:01:06with a black cloak
01:01:07over it.
01:01:08On the cloak,
01:01:09there was a very clear
01:01:10Black Sun emblem.
01:01:14There's a curse in the tea.
01:01:15Don't drink it!
01:01:21Lord Ethan,
01:01:22how is Alara?
01:01:24Princess Alana
01:01:24was hit by the curse
01:01:25in the tea.
01:01:26She'll be safe for now.
01:01:29But the curse
01:01:30inside Princess Alana
01:01:31is a soul-linked curse.
01:01:33It is different
01:01:34from the Wendico curse
01:01:35that was inside you.
01:01:36If the soul stays
01:01:37in the body,
01:01:37the person lives.
01:01:38If not,
01:01:39the body can be taken over.
01:01:40The source of this curse
01:01:41is not inside Princess Alara.
01:01:43What?
01:01:43Alara drank the herbal tea.
01:01:45How can the source
01:01:45not be inside her?
01:01:46Lord Ethan,
01:01:46please tell me!
01:01:47The curse seed
01:01:47is inside Princess Lyra.
01:01:52Lord Morvain,
01:01:53as you requested,
01:01:55I brought her here.
01:01:58Who are you?
01:01:59What do you want?
01:02:00Don't be afraid,
01:02:01Princess Lyra.
01:02:02I simply wanted
01:02:03to invite you for tea
01:02:04and a little talk.
01:02:05Catch up?
01:02:06I don't even know you!
01:02:07And who dies?
01:02:08You may not know me,
01:02:10but your father,
01:02:11King Arion,
01:02:12and I are old friends.
01:02:14Without my Black Marsh medicine,
01:02:16Ash Royal Court
01:02:16would never have become
01:02:17the strongest court
01:02:18in the North.
01:02:19In other words,
01:02:20in the North,
01:02:21I decide who live.
01:02:23My father may have
01:02:24taken your medicine,
01:02:25but Ash Royal Court
01:02:26rose because of him.
01:02:27What does that
01:02:28have to do with you?
01:02:29I helped, didn't I?
01:02:30I'm only collecting
01:02:31what King Arion owes me.
01:02:35Give Princess Lyra
01:02:37that tea.
01:02:42What are you doing?
01:02:43I...
01:02:43Drink it.
01:02:44No more talking.
01:02:52One soul,
01:02:53two lives.
01:02:54Bind their pain.
01:02:56Link them across distance.
01:02:57Life and death
01:02:58as one.
01:03:01What?
01:03:02What did you do to me?
01:03:04Nothing much.
01:03:05Just a soul-linked curse.
01:03:07This curse connects
01:03:08your life with Alara's.
01:03:09If her curse is removed,
01:03:11you die.
01:03:11But if it isn't removed,
01:03:13your sister dies in one hour.
01:03:16Now, I want to see
01:03:17which daughter
01:03:18King Arion chooses to save.
01:03:20Princess Alara
01:03:20or you?
01:03:24You're disgusting.
01:03:26Don't worry.
01:03:27I'm only playing
01:03:28with your royal court.
01:03:29If I wanted you dead,
01:03:31you wouldn't survive today.
01:03:33Send Princess Lyra back.
01:03:37May I speak
01:03:37with Princess Lyra
01:03:38alone?
01:03:40I need to settle
01:03:41a small score
01:03:41from today.
01:03:42Do as you like.
01:03:43Thank you,
01:03:44Lord Morvain.
01:03:47Princess Lyra,
01:03:48let's go.
01:03:49I'll send you home.
01:03:54The curse seed
01:03:55is inside Princess Lyra.
01:03:56If I remove
01:03:57Princess Alara's curse,
01:03:58Princess Lyra
01:03:58will suffer the entire time
01:03:59and may even die.
01:04:00But if I don't remove it,
01:04:01in one hour,
01:04:02Princess Alara
01:04:02will itch all over,
01:04:03bleed from her eyes
01:04:04and mouth and die.
01:04:05King Aran,
01:04:05Morvain is forcing you
01:04:06to choose.
01:04:07Save Princess Alara
01:04:08or save Princess Lyra.
01:04:09Unforgivable.
01:04:10Cursing me wasn't enough
01:04:11and now he's coming
01:04:12after my daughters.
01:04:13But Lord Ethan,
01:04:14if we're saving them,
01:04:15we have to find Lyra
01:04:15within the hour.
01:04:16No need.
01:04:17Princess Lyra
01:04:18is already here.
01:04:19What?
01:04:20Here?
01:04:21She just went to
01:04:22the Black Raven Clan's
01:04:23East Tower Trading House.
01:04:24She can't be here.
01:04:25Your Majesty,
01:04:26something happened.
01:04:27Princess Lyra was badly wounded
01:04:28and dumped outside
01:04:28the royal court gate.
01:04:30Put her down.
01:04:31Send people to watch
01:04:32the Black Raven Clan.
01:04:38Already done.
01:04:39Father.
01:04:41Lyra, what happened?
01:04:42Yesterday,
01:04:43I was reviewing
01:04:43an old contract
01:04:44at the Black Raven Clan's
01:04:46East Tower Trading House.
01:04:47Darion interrupted the meeting
01:04:48and had his men
01:04:49take me to a secret room
01:04:51inside Black Raven Keep.
01:04:56Darion, Cassian
01:04:57and a masked man
01:04:58tortured me.
01:05:00That masked man
01:05:01placed a curse inside me.
01:05:03Lord Ethan,
01:05:04please save my sister.
01:05:07Princess Lyra,
01:05:08don't be afraid.
01:05:09I'm here.
01:05:12Darion must have
01:05:13a death wish.
01:05:14He dared lay hands
01:05:15on my daughter.
01:05:17Lyra,
01:05:18you said Darion
01:05:18and his son
01:05:19worked with a masked man
01:05:20to curse you.
01:05:21Yes.
01:05:22His name was Morvain.
01:05:26Morvain.
01:05:27Just as I thought.
01:05:28Darion wanted to curse me
01:05:29and kill me.
01:05:30I'll make him pay for this.
01:05:32King Orion,
01:05:32the priority is saving
01:05:33both princesses.
01:05:34Revenge can wait
01:05:35until they're safe.
01:05:35But because of the
01:05:36soul link curse,
01:05:37only one of them
01:05:37can be saved.
01:05:38Do you have a way?
01:05:39Me to the bedroom.
01:05:40I have a plan.
01:05:42Morvain is the one
01:05:43Morvian cursed
01:05:43and controlled.
01:05:45Lyra is clean.
01:05:47Morvian must be
01:05:48using Orin to watch us.
01:05:53No.
01:05:55We need to draw Morvian.
01:05:56King Orion,
01:05:57no matter what happens
01:05:58in this room later,
01:05:59don't let anyone come in.
01:06:00And please,
01:06:01prepare some fresh mint leaves
01:06:02for me.
01:06:03Orin,
01:06:04follow Lord Ethan's
01:06:05instructions.
01:06:07Your Majesty,
01:06:08fresh mint
01:06:09doesn't grow this season.
01:06:11I'll handle it right away.
01:06:13I'll leave this to you,
01:06:14Lord Ethan.
01:06:19I don't know how much
01:06:20longer my body can hold out.
01:06:25Lord Ethan,
01:06:27the man who cursed us
01:06:28said only one of us
01:06:29can live.
01:06:29Is that true?
01:06:30Yes.
01:06:32And save my sister.
01:06:33She's stronger than I am,
01:06:35just like Father.
01:06:36I believe she can take
01:06:37Ash Royal Halt further
01:06:38than I ever could.
01:06:39Princess Lyra,
01:06:40don't worry.
01:06:41Normally the Soul Link curse
01:06:42allows only one person to live.
01:06:43But I don't follow normal rules.
01:06:45Both of you will be fine.
01:06:46Lord Ethan,
01:06:47you can save both of us?
01:06:48Yes.
01:06:50But the curse is easy to break.
01:06:52The evil inside people
01:06:53is much harder.
01:06:55What do you mean?
01:06:56I'll break the curse first.
01:06:57After Princess Alara wakes,
01:06:59we'll talk.
01:06:59Lie down,
01:07:00close your eyes,
01:07:01and remove your outer robe.
01:07:10Thunderlight of Zeus,
01:07:11separate their souls.
01:07:14Darkness,
01:07:15withdraw.
01:07:16Life,
01:07:16return.
01:07:17Souls,
01:07:18return to your bodies.
01:07:19Soul Link curse,
01:07:20break apart!
01:07:23Watch out!
01:07:27Watch out!
01:07:32Ethan,
01:07:33you're more capable
01:07:34than I expected.
01:07:35You broke the Soul Link curse.
01:07:36In this world,
01:07:37only you could do that.
01:07:38No wonder you're Zeus reborn.
01:07:42He has also been cursed
01:07:44by Morvan.
01:07:45Morvane!
01:07:46Let Orin go!
01:07:49Hand over the curse seed
01:07:51inside King Orion.
01:07:53Try leaving here alive.
01:07:55Your curse seed
01:07:56is right here.
01:07:58Ethan!
01:07:59What a waste!
01:08:02You wasted something
01:08:03that precious
01:08:04just to break a curse.
01:08:07You're beyond saving.
01:08:09Unforgivable!
01:08:10Ethan!
01:08:12Lord Ethan,
01:08:13please save Orin.
01:08:15Orin,
01:08:15hold on.
01:08:17Break free
01:08:17from Morvena's control.
01:08:19Princess Lyra,
01:08:20my mind is clearer
01:08:21than ever.
01:08:22You never should have
01:08:23brought this man back.
01:08:25He ruined everything.
01:08:27I'm sorry.
01:08:28I can't save him.
01:08:30What?
01:08:31Even you can't save him?
01:08:33If even you can't,
01:08:35who can?
01:08:38A curse can be broken,
01:08:39a rotten heart cannot.
01:08:42Only he can save himself.
01:08:44Even a god
01:08:45couldn't do it for him.
01:08:47What do you mean?
01:08:50Orin was never cursed.
01:08:52He was sent here
01:08:53to kill both of you.
01:08:58Orin has served
01:08:59father for years.
01:09:01He watched us grow up.
01:09:03Why would he want
01:09:03to kill us?
01:09:05Do you remember
01:09:06what I said
01:09:06before breaking the curse?
01:09:08I remember.
01:09:10You said curses
01:09:11are easy to break
01:09:11but the human heart
01:09:12cannot be healed.
01:09:14Lord Ethan,
01:09:14what is going on
01:09:15with Orin?
01:09:16The problem begins
01:09:17with your father.
01:09:18King Orion
01:09:19is at the center of this.
01:09:21If I'm right,
01:09:22King Ion sent him
01:09:22to kill you.
01:09:24No.
01:09:25That's impossible.
01:09:26I must still be dreaming.
01:09:29Sister,
01:09:29pinch me.
01:09:30Wake me up.
01:09:32Lord Ethan,
01:09:33this is not something
01:09:33you joke about.
01:09:34Ask Orin,
01:09:35then you'll know.
01:09:39The black flame mark
01:09:40behind his ear
01:09:40was put there by himself
01:09:41so I would notice it
01:09:42while he led the way.
01:09:43At first,
01:09:44I thought he had been cursed
01:09:45when he met Princess Lyra
01:09:46at the gate.
01:09:46I thought Morvan
01:09:47was using him
01:09:48to watch us.
01:09:49But other than
01:09:50the Soul Link curse,
01:09:51I found no sign
01:09:51of any other curse
01:09:52on Princess Lyra.
01:09:54And Morvan is confident
01:09:55enough now
01:09:55that if he wanted
01:09:56to kill us,
01:09:57he wouldn't need
01:09:57such a complicated setup.
01:09:58So the problem
01:09:59lies with your father.
01:10:00Princess Lyra,
01:10:01your father did not
01:10:02tell us the truth.
01:10:03Lord Ethan is more
01:10:03than a divine healer.
01:10:05He can see the whole board.
01:10:06Princess Lyra,
01:10:07your biggest mistake
01:10:08was bringing him back
01:10:09to cure the king.
01:10:09His majesty was about
01:10:10to become a god.
01:10:11And your love
01:10:12for your father
01:10:12ruined his plan.
01:10:16What did you say?
01:10:17This was all father's plan?
01:10:18His coma was staged?
01:10:19That can't be true.
01:10:20We brought so many
01:10:21sacred healers to father
01:10:22and none of them
01:10:23could break his curse.
01:10:23Your father's curse
01:10:24was real.
01:10:25Those so-called
01:10:25sacred healers
01:10:26truly couldn't see
01:10:27what was wrong with him.
01:10:28But your father
01:10:28and Morvan
01:10:29have a deep connection.
01:10:31When I woke your father,
01:10:32I disrupted their plan.
01:10:33Since you're all
01:10:34about to die,
01:10:34I might as well
01:10:35tell you the truth.
01:10:36His majesty sought out
01:10:37Morvayne himself
01:10:37for immortality
01:10:38and swallowed
01:10:38the Black Marsh
01:10:39curse seed willingly.
01:10:40The day the curse seed
01:10:41breaks out of his body
01:10:42is the day his majesty
01:10:42leaves his mortal body
01:10:43behind and becomes
01:10:44immortal.
01:10:45And Ethan ruined it.
01:10:47No.
01:10:48No.
01:10:49Father would never do that.
01:10:50Nothing is impossible,
01:10:52Princess Lyra.
01:10:53You are too kind
01:10:54and far too easy
01:10:55to fool.
01:10:56In your next life,
01:10:57fix that weakness.
01:11:02It's done.
01:11:09Morvayne,
01:11:10I handled Ethan for you.
01:11:12When do I get
01:11:13the Black Marsh
01:11:13curse seed
01:11:14you promised me?
01:11:15You are as ruthless
01:11:16as ever.
01:11:17For immortality,
01:11:18you sacrificed your wife.
01:11:19Now you are willing
01:11:20to sacrifice your daughters.
01:11:21Wolves do not preach mercy.
01:11:23Great things require sacrifice.
01:11:24I want to see
01:11:25how much use
01:11:26the body of Zeus Reborn
01:11:27still has
01:11:28and what kind
01:11:28of cursed seed
01:11:29it can reform.
01:11:54Where is my curse seed?
01:11:59Lord Morvayne,
01:12:00that boy said he turned
01:12:01your soul link curse
01:12:02into medicine.
01:12:03Damn boy,
01:12:04you even dared
01:12:05turn my curse seed
01:12:06into medicine.
01:12:11Zeus's thunder light.
01:12:12So he really isn't
01:12:14an ordinary border healer.
01:12:16Morvayne,
01:12:17I delivered the man
01:12:17you wanted.
01:12:18Now according to our deal,
01:12:19give me the real
01:12:20Black Marsh curse seed.
01:12:21What deal?
01:12:23You're betraying me?
01:12:24I gave you Ethan
01:12:25and both of my daughters.
01:12:26You promised me
01:12:27the real Black Marsh curse seed.
01:12:29You promised to help
01:12:30me become immortal.
01:12:32Orion,
01:12:33have you forgotten
01:12:34who put you
01:12:35on that throne?
01:12:36I took you
01:12:37from a fallen Roarline
01:12:38and made you
01:12:38king of the north.
01:12:40And now you bring me
01:12:41a few corpses
01:12:42and think you can bargain?
01:12:44You promised me
01:12:46once I gave you Ethan
01:12:47you would help me
01:12:48become immortal.
01:12:48Their lives are worthless.
01:12:50If I want them dead,
01:12:51they die.
01:12:52You're the one
01:12:52who betrayed blood and oath.
01:12:53You sacrificed your wife,
01:12:55then your daughters
01:12:56and now you still
01:12:56want immortality?
01:12:57You're too greedy.
01:12:58I can give you
01:12:59all of Ash Royal Court.
01:13:01Salt mines,
01:13:03hunting grounds,
01:13:04take whatever you want.
01:13:05And what makes you
01:13:06think I care
01:13:07about any of that?
01:13:08Right now,
01:13:09he is worth more
01:13:10than you.
01:13:12Zeus's reborn body
01:13:13and the remains
01:13:14of the curse seed
01:13:15he refined
01:13:16are far more useful
01:13:17than your old bones.
01:13:19What do you want?
01:13:21Don't ask what I want.
01:13:24Ask what you still have.
01:13:29What if I offer
01:13:30every resource
01:13:31Ash Royal Court has?
01:13:33Ash Royal Court
01:13:34is now the strongest
01:13:34court in the north.
01:13:35Wasn't I the one
01:13:36who put you
01:13:37on that throne?
01:13:38I can make you king
01:13:39and I can make
01:13:39someone else king.
01:13:41You know exactly
01:13:43why I chose you
01:13:43back then.
01:13:44Because my queen
01:13:45had a rare frost bloodline.
01:13:47You wanted to use her
01:13:48as a sacrifice
01:13:49for your soul link,
01:13:50Kurt.
01:13:51You wanted my queen's life
01:13:52and I gave it to you.
01:13:54I gave you my daughters too.
01:13:56What else do you want?
01:13:57Without your blood relatives,
01:13:59you're nothing to me.
01:14:02You.
01:14:04I forgot.
01:14:06You still have one loyal dog.
01:14:14If you want to touch the king,
01:14:16you go through me first.
01:14:17You want to fight me?
01:14:18You don't even know
01:14:20how weak you are.
01:14:23Say it.
01:14:24What do you want?
01:14:25Orion, so many royal families
01:14:26begged me back then.
01:14:27Why did I choose
01:14:28a fallen prince like you?
01:14:29Because you wanted
01:14:30my queen's bloodline.
01:14:31That was only part of it.
01:14:32I chose you
01:14:33because you were ruthless.
01:14:34You dared to give things up.
01:14:36You dared to gamble.
01:14:37Just like now.
01:14:38All I have now
01:14:39is Ash Royal Court
01:14:40and every resource
01:14:41in the north.
01:14:43If you want them,
01:14:45take them.
01:14:46Think harder.
01:14:48What else do you still have?
01:14:50I have nothing left now.
01:14:54You want my life.
01:14:56So you finally understand,
01:14:57yes,
01:14:58I want your life.
01:15:01Your Majesty,
01:15:02run!
01:15:09Such loyalty.
01:15:11Such a worthless death.
01:15:18Hello, Mourvain.
01:15:20Or should I call you
01:15:22brother?
01:15:26Nothing is impossible,
01:15:27Princess Lyra.
01:15:29You're too kind
01:15:30and far too trusting.
01:15:32In your next life,
01:15:33fix that weakness.
01:15:36You think you can
01:15:37take my life?
01:15:38This can't be real.
01:15:40This can't be real.
01:15:40I don't believe it.
01:15:41Lyra, wake up.
01:15:42This is real.
01:15:43Since our father
01:15:44wants us dead,
01:15:45we need to decide
01:15:46what we do next.
01:15:48I just used
01:15:48truth thunder.
01:15:49Orin can only
01:15:50tell the truth now.
01:15:51Ask him anything you want.
01:15:53Orin,
01:15:54was everything you said
01:15:55just now true?
01:15:56Every word.
01:15:57Did you know
01:15:58Princess Lyra
01:15:59was tortured
01:15:59by the Black
01:16:00Raven Clan
01:16:01and Mourvain?
01:16:02His Majesty
01:16:03deliberately
01:16:03sent Princess Lyra
01:16:04to the Black
01:16:05Raven Clan's
01:16:05East Tower
01:16:06trading house
01:16:07to investigate
01:16:07an old contract.
01:16:08Princesses,
01:16:09we are already
01:16:10inside the trap.
01:16:11Let's hear how many
01:16:12more secrets
01:16:12King Aran
01:16:13and Mourvain
01:16:13are hiding.
01:16:14We'll follow
01:16:14your lead,
01:16:15Lord Ethan.
01:16:18Princesses,
01:16:19forgive me.
01:16:45Brother.
01:16:46Brother.
01:16:46Those little tricks
01:16:47of yours
01:16:48won't kill me.
01:16:49Mourvain,
01:16:50I've already
01:16:50sealed this room
01:16:51with a thunder barrier.
01:16:52Don't waste your strength.
01:16:53Your Black Mar
01:16:53curses won't work here.
01:16:55Surrender.
01:16:55No wonder
01:16:56you are Zeus reborn.
01:16:57So the power
01:16:58of the old gods
01:16:58really did fall to you.
01:17:00But crushing you
01:17:00would take no effort.
01:17:01I'm not done playing yet,
01:17:02so I'll let you live today.
01:17:04Goodbye.
01:17:04Goodbye.
01:17:17King Aran,
01:17:18what happened today
01:17:19is a matter for Ashcord.
01:17:21I won't interfere,
01:17:22but there are things
01:17:23you need to tell
01:17:23the truth about.
01:17:24You all heard it.
01:17:27We heard.
01:17:28Father,
01:17:29you were willing
01:17:29to trade all our lives
01:17:30for your immortality
01:17:31and your throne.
01:17:32Do you even deserve
01:17:33to be our father?
01:17:34King Aran,
01:17:35that curse
01:17:36cannot make you immortal.
01:17:37It cannot make you a god.
01:17:39It will only keep
01:17:40feeding on your soul
01:17:41and your family's souls
01:17:42until your house is destroyed.
01:17:43If immortality
01:17:44were truly that easy,
01:17:45why would Morvan
01:17:46give it to a mortal
01:17:47with no divine power
01:17:48instead of keeping it
01:17:49for himself?
01:17:50So,
01:17:51I was never
01:17:52Morvan's chosen one.
01:17:54I was his experiment.
01:17:57When I had just taken over
01:17:59Ash Royal Court,
01:17:59I signed a major
01:18:00saltmine contract.
01:18:01Halfway through,
01:18:02our allied clan
01:18:03suddenly withdrew.
01:18:04It nearly destroyed us.
01:18:05I had knights to feed.
01:18:07My mother needed
01:18:07life-saving medicine.
01:18:09Alira and Lyra
01:18:09were still young.
01:18:11Every corner of the court
01:18:12needed gold.
01:18:12I went to them
01:18:13again and again,
01:18:14begging them not to pull out.
01:18:15Every time,
01:18:16they refused.
01:18:17Just like that,
01:18:17the saltmine contract collapsed.
01:18:19The royal court
01:18:19was on the edge.
01:18:20My mother died
01:18:20on her sickbed.
01:18:21After I left her sick room,
01:18:23I went to the altar
01:18:23of the old gods
01:18:24to ask for guidance.
01:18:25When I came out,
01:18:26I met Morvan.
01:18:27He asked if I wanted revenge.
01:18:29I was blinded by hate.
01:18:30I thought the old gods
01:18:32had answered me,
01:18:32so I made a deal with him.
01:18:35With all our lives
01:18:36as the price for your greed?
01:18:37He promised that
01:18:38within 15 years,
01:18:39I would rule the North
01:18:40and become immortal.
01:18:41I was young and arrogant.
01:18:43I agreed before
01:18:44he even finished speaking.
01:18:45And the price
01:18:46was your entire family's lives?
01:18:47No!
01:18:48The price was a lifetime
01:18:49of being alone.
01:18:51Then congratulations.
01:18:52You got exactly
01:18:53what you wanted.
01:18:54From now on,
01:18:55you will be alone
01:18:55for the rest of your life.
01:18:57Princess Alara,
01:18:57not yet.
01:18:58Let King Orion finish.
01:18:59He gave me the price
01:19:01before I understood it.
01:19:02When he said the cost
01:19:03was a lifetime alone,
01:19:04I felt nothing.
01:19:05What's the difference?
01:19:07A lifetime of being alone
01:19:08doesn't only mean
01:19:09losing your family.
01:19:11It means from that day on,
01:19:13there was no one
01:19:14beside me I could trust.
01:19:15Then congratulations.
01:19:17You got exactly
01:19:18what you wanted.
01:19:19From now on,
01:19:19you will be alone
01:19:20for the rest of your life.
01:19:21Princess Alara,
01:19:22not yet.
01:19:23Let King Orion finish.
01:19:24He gave me the price
01:19:25before I understood it.
01:19:27When he said the cost
01:19:28was a lifetime alone,
01:19:29I felt nothing.
01:19:30He gave me a jar
01:19:31of black marsh herbs.
01:19:33He told me not to boil them
01:19:34or drink them,
01:19:35only to place them
01:19:35by the bed.
01:19:36Because of where
01:19:37I placed them.
01:19:38That very night,
01:19:39I had a terrible fight
01:19:40with the Queen.
01:19:41Looking back now,
01:19:42that was when
01:19:42the price began.
01:19:45The Queen saw that thing
01:19:46and couldn't sleep.
01:19:47That night,
01:19:48she slept on the fur bench
01:19:50in the outer hall.
01:19:51When I woke up,
01:19:52the herbs were still there,
01:19:53but the curse seed
01:19:54inside them was gone.
01:19:56If I'm right,
01:19:56that curse seed
01:19:57was never meant for you.
01:19:58It was meant for your Queen,
01:20:00because she carried
01:20:01the rare frost bloodline.
01:20:02At first,
01:20:02there were no signs at all.
01:20:03Then,
01:20:04after Lyra turned 18,
01:20:06the Queen suddenly
01:20:07coughed blood
01:20:07in the royal court
01:20:08inner chamber and died.
01:20:09When I prepared her body,
01:20:11I regretted making that deal.
01:20:13I found him
01:20:14and told him
01:20:14the deal was off.
01:20:16I said I wanted out.
01:20:17You only saw
01:20:18what you gained.
01:20:19You never understood
01:20:20what you lost.
01:20:21What did I gain?
01:20:23What did I gain?
01:20:24The royal court.
01:20:26A court that belonged to me.
01:20:28The greatest royal court
01:20:30in the North.
01:20:31And after that?
01:20:32Ash royal court
01:20:33grew stronger by the day.
01:20:35It did not even take 15 years.
01:20:37It became
01:20:38the strongest royal court
01:20:40in the North.
01:20:40Princess Lyla's illness,
01:20:42in a way,
01:20:43also came from you.
01:20:44Yes.
01:20:46It came from me.
01:20:48But I had no way back.
01:20:49All I could do
01:20:50was keep moving forward.
01:20:52Give them the best
01:20:53of everything.
01:20:54Material things.
01:20:55To make up
01:20:56for what I owed them.
01:20:58I would rather
01:20:59have lived poor
01:20:59than watch our family
01:21:01fall apart,
01:21:02be torn to pieces.
01:21:04Illness can be healed.
01:21:05Desire is harder
01:21:06to remove.
01:21:07That's because
01:21:08you've never been desperate.
01:21:09Every person has desires.
01:21:11I did what I had to do.
01:21:12Then what about your mother,
01:21:13who built everything
01:21:14with you from nothing?
01:21:15Sometimes,
01:21:15for the future of a kingdom,
01:21:17one person's sacrifice
01:21:18means nothing.
01:21:19You're beyond saving.
01:21:21You're not the father I knew.
01:21:24At this point,
01:21:25I only want to step down
01:21:26and leave Ashcourt behind.
01:21:29The Blackstone Royal Token.
01:21:31Whoever holds it
01:21:32speaks with the king's authority.
01:21:35From this day on,
01:21:36Ash Royal Court
01:21:38is yours to command.
01:21:45This filthy thing.
01:21:47Let it rot.
01:21:51Ten Ash Royal Courts
01:21:54could never buy back
01:21:55Mother's life.
01:21:56Ilara,
01:21:56you are exactly like I was
01:21:58when I first took over
01:21:58the Royal Court.
01:21:59Fearless.
01:22:00But one day,
01:22:01you'll understand.
01:22:02Reality will crush you
01:22:03until you can't breathe.
01:22:05And this token
01:22:06is the weapon
01:22:06that lets you survive it.
01:22:08Lyra, come here.
01:22:09Let your father
01:22:10hold you one last time.
01:22:11If only your mother
01:22:12were here now.
01:22:20Father,
01:22:21Father,
01:22:22Father.
01:22:26Princesses,
01:22:27the dead cannot return.
01:22:28King Orion
01:22:29had already taken poison.
01:22:30We were here the whole time.
01:22:32When did he take it?
01:22:33He knew he had
01:22:33too many enemies in the north.
01:22:35If he ever fell
01:22:36into their hands.
01:22:36It was his last shred
01:22:37of dignity.
01:22:38Lord Ethan,
01:22:39you can save people.
01:22:40Please,
01:22:40you have to save him.
01:22:41There's still time.
01:22:44Father.
01:22:45He knew he had
01:22:46too many enemies
01:22:47in the north.
01:22:48If he ever fell
01:22:49into their hands,
01:22:50he hid it in his tooth.
01:22:51It was his final foulback.
01:22:53Princess Lyra,
01:22:54King Orion's belief
01:22:55in immortality
01:22:56has shattered.
01:22:56He caused the Queen's death
01:22:58and nearly killed
01:22:58both of you.
01:22:59Even if I brought him back,
01:23:00I'm afraid.
01:23:01This is not the time
01:23:02to cry.
01:23:03Handle Father's funeral
01:23:04in the court's affairs.
01:23:05Lord Ethan and I
01:23:06will settle the score
01:23:07with Morvan.
01:23:07Princess Alara,
01:23:08you truly are
01:23:09King Orion's daughter.
01:23:10Calm under pressure.
01:23:11Born to rule.
01:23:12Princess Alara,
01:23:13not yet.
01:23:16Morvane's Black Marsh
01:23:17curses are strange.
01:23:18If we go now
01:23:19without preparation,
01:23:20we're just walking
01:23:21to our deaths.
01:23:22I have something for you.
01:23:24What is this?
01:23:25Toad Blyle Powder.
01:23:26Once applied,
01:23:27it's colorless and odorless,
01:23:28but deadly
01:23:29to Black Marsh curse bugs.
01:23:30Think of it as armor
01:23:31for your body.
01:23:35I thought it over.
01:23:37Better to end a threat
01:23:38before it spreads.
01:23:40If I leave you alone,
01:23:42sooner or later,
01:23:42you'll ruin everything.
01:23:45So,
01:23:46Ethan,
01:23:47die.
01:23:48Perfect.
01:23:49Saves me the trouble
01:23:50of finding you.
01:23:51Give me back
01:23:52my mother's life!
01:23:54Give me back
01:23:55my curse seed.
01:23:57Bloodline.
01:23:58Soul.
01:24:01Immortality.
01:24:02Come to me!
01:24:13What's happening?
01:24:15How can he still
01:24:15cast curses?
01:24:16Didn't he set up
01:24:17a thunder barrier here?
01:24:18To me,
01:24:19it makes no difference.
01:24:21You think this boy
01:24:22is powerful enough
01:24:23to break down
01:24:23my curse?
01:24:25Ridiculous.
01:24:26If you want it so badly,
01:24:28I'll give it back.
01:24:29By my thunder light,
01:24:30open the path back.
01:24:34My curse bugs,
01:24:35why are they gone?
01:24:36How do you know
01:24:37the Black Marsh curse tongue?
01:24:38I am Zeus Reborn.
01:24:40No dark art
01:24:41stays hidden from me.
01:24:42I've seen through
01:24:42your curse work,
01:24:43Morvain.
01:24:44You miscalculated.
01:24:45Then I'll take
01:24:46the souls you protect
01:24:47and repair my broken one.
01:24:50These are motion-hunting
01:24:52curse bugs.
01:24:53They attack anything
01:24:54alive that moves.
01:24:56Once they stick to you
01:24:57for 30 seconds,
01:24:58you'll be nothing but bones.
01:25:00They leave the flesh untouched.
01:25:02They only eat the bones.
01:25:04After you die,
01:25:05I'll make cloaks
01:25:06from your skin.
01:25:11Ethan,
01:25:12do you know why
01:25:13you became
01:25:14Zeus Reborn?
01:25:17Morvain,
01:25:18you use curse bugs
01:25:19to devour
01:25:19other people's lives
01:25:20and repair
01:25:21your own broken soul.
01:25:23So what?
01:25:23The strong survive
01:25:25by devouring the weak.
01:25:26You're right.
01:25:27So today,
01:25:28it's your turn
01:25:29to be devoured.
01:25:36Don't you dare!
01:25:37Black Marsh,
01:25:38open!
01:25:39Curse Blood,
01:25:40awaken!
01:25:40Take his soul
01:25:41and make his power
01:25:43mine!
01:25:44Thunder,
01:25:44shatter the darkness!
01:25:48My curse bugs!
01:25:50How did they disappear?
01:25:52Sister!
01:25:53Let's see if you're
01:25:54willing to kill her
01:25:55just to destroy me.
01:25:56Ethan,
01:25:57what are you waiting for?
01:25:58Do it!
01:25:59If my life
01:26:00can take this monster down,
01:26:01it's worth it.
01:26:02Brother,
01:26:03join me.
01:26:04You command divine healing.
01:26:06I command Black Marsh curses.
01:26:09Together,
01:26:09this whole world
01:26:10could be ours.
01:26:11Everyone chooses
01:26:11their own path.
01:26:12I won't steal another life
01:26:13to change mine.
01:26:15In all my life,
01:26:16you're the only one
01:26:17who has ever dared
01:26:17refuse me, Ethan.
01:26:19Then die with her!
01:26:22Impossible!
01:26:23How do you know
01:26:24the strongest Black Marsh curse?
01:26:26You're wrong.
01:26:27To you,
01:26:28this is the strongest
01:26:28Black Marsh cursed.
01:26:30To me,
01:26:31it's nothing.
01:26:32Spend the rest of your life
01:26:34inside my inner prison.
01:26:35No!
01:26:36No!
01:26:37No!
01:26:45You're awake.
01:26:47Are you alright?
01:26:48Are you hurt?
01:26:49Where is Morvayne?
01:26:51I'm fine.
01:26:52I trapped him
01:26:52inside my inner prison.
01:26:55He will spend
01:26:56the rest of his life there.
