DiversiónTranscripción
00:00:01Cecilia and I were chosen by our clan to become tribute brides to the dragons.
00:00:06Among the dragon clans there were no females, so every 50 years, young women from the human clans were selected
00:00:12and offered to them.
00:00:14No one knew what happened to those girls after they were taken away, all anyone knew was that none of
00:00:18them ever returned.
00:00:20As for which dragon each of us would belong to, that was decided by the drawing of lots.
00:00:29Cecilia drew the silver-scaled dragon while I was given to the black dragon.
00:00:35When the silver-scaled dragon took on human form he was breathtakingly handsome, with long silver hair and a pair
00:00:40of silver-slit pupalled eyes.
00:00:43Cecilia fell for him at first sight and willingly accepted her fate as his bride.
00:00:48The black dragon however, never bothered to take on human form in front of us, as if humans were not
00:00:53even worthy of seeing his face.
00:00:57Cecilia believed the silver-scaled dragon would be easier to please, so she followed the arrangement without fear, and became
00:01:03his tribute bride.
00:01:06But after we were taken back to the dragon sanctum, the silver-scaled dragon's true nature was revealed.
00:01:12He had never cared for Cecilia at all, he tormented her day after day for his own amusement,
00:01:17and even planned to hand her over to other dragons once he grew tired of her.
00:01:23Cecilia was tortured to the brink of death.
00:01:27As for the black dragon, he turned out to be the black dragon king himself.
00:01:31After I slowly earned his trust and heart, he cherished me above all others,
00:01:35and after I carried his eggs he crowned me as his dragon queen.
00:01:38Cecilia was driven mad by jealousy.
00:01:42With the last of her strength, she stabbed me to death.
00:01:56When I opened my eyes again, I had returned to the day of the offering.
00:02:08Elara, Cecilia, if either of you can form a soul bond with your assigned dragon within year,
00:02:15one year, you will be granted a new life,
00:02:17and the human clans will receive the protection of the dragons spared from the demon-born hordes.
00:02:22This time, Cecilia had bribed the servants and switched our lots,
00:02:28she believed would please the black dragon.
00:02:31She stood before him with quiet triumph.
00:02:35I almost laughed, since she was so eager to become nothing more than a breeding vessel,
00:02:40then as her younger sister, I would naturally help her get exactly what she wanted.
00:02:45Elara, as your elder sister, I have to protect you.
00:02:49Lord Silas is clearly gentler and more approachable.
00:02:54As long as you win his favor, our people will still have hope.
00:03:00The black dragon is obviously dangerous and difficult to please,
00:03:04and I cannot let my younger sister face that kind of danger.
00:03:11Let me become the black dragon's bride instead.
00:03:16Her expression was sincere.
00:03:18Every inch the very image of a devoted elder sister.
00:03:21I had not expected that even after being given another life,
00:03:24Cecilia would still try to send me to my death.
00:03:26In my previous life, Cecilia had been given to Silas, the silver-scaled dragon.
00:03:31She had gone willingly because his dragon form was magnificent
00:03:34and his human form was beautiful and gentle.
00:03:37Those silver-slit poopelt eyes were especially good at deceiving people,
00:03:40and his tender appearance made Cecilia forget that he was still a dragon,
00:03:44a vile and depraved silver-scaled dragon.
00:03:47As for me, I had already lost all hope,
00:03:50since I was going to be offered to a dragon no matter what,
00:03:53it hardly mattered which one it was.
00:03:55No bride had ever returned to the human clans,
00:03:58and from the moment I was chosen, I had already considered myself dead.
00:04:02Even then, Cecilia had not forgotten to mock me.
00:04:17Yet that very night, I heard what had happened after she was taken back to the dragon sanctum.
00:04:22Silas had forced himself on her so violently, that she nearly died.
00:04:26Once he grew tired of her, he intended to give her away to his companions.
00:04:32As for me, after I was taken to the dragon clans,
00:04:34Zarek cast me into a cavern and disappeared.
00:04:37When he finally returned, he was gravely injured,
00:04:39and in order to survive I had no choice but to please him,
00:04:42tend to him, and care for him while he healed.
00:04:44Zarek was cold, reserved, and dangerously temperamental.
00:04:47Every day, I tried every possible way to get close to him,
00:04:51and slowly win him over.
00:04:52At last, after his injuries healed, I earned his trust.
00:04:57He told me he was willing to form a soul bond with me,
00:05:01and protect the human clans behind me.
00:05:03But only if I truly loved him, and bore his offspring.
00:05:10After that, Zaker and I came to care for each other sincerely.
00:05:14I was even willing to carry his dragon eggs.
00:05:17He declared to the dragon clans and to my own people that I was his mate.
00:05:21And he even brought me back to the human clans,
00:05:24allowing me to enjoy a status I had never known before.
00:05:26I knew exactly what Cecilia was thinking now.
00:05:29She envied the love and honor I had received in my previous life.
00:05:33She not only wanted to take Zarek from me,
00:05:35but also wanted me to suffer everything she had once endured.
00:05:42Cecilia, you are so good to me.
00:05:50You truly are my dear sister.
00:05:53Cecilia nodded with a look of practiced sorrow,
00:05:56then turned and walked towards Zarek.
00:05:58Zarek had not taken on human form.
00:06:00His massive black body was coiled beside the offering altar,
00:06:03and his dark gold, slit poo-piled eyes swept over Cecilia once without a word,
00:06:07which was enough to be taken as silent consent.
00:06:09On the other side of the altar,
00:06:11Silas had already taken on human form.
00:06:13With silver hair, silver eyes,
00:06:15and a handsome face softened by a gentle smile,
00:06:17he reached his hand toward me.
00:06:19Come here, my bride.
00:06:23I did not move.
00:06:24I knew what was hidden behind that hand.
00:06:27It was torture,
00:06:29humiliation,
00:06:30and the fate of being discarded once he grew tired of me.
00:06:33But the lots had been switched,
00:06:35and my fate had already been decided.
00:06:37I was supposed to become Silas's tribute bride.
00:06:40Just as I was about to hurl myself off the cliff and end everything,
00:06:44the sky suddenly darkened.
00:06:46I looked up and saw an enormous gray-white shadow diving down from the clouds.
00:06:50It crashed into the center of the altar,
00:06:52shaking the ground so violently that cracks spread beneath its claws.
00:06:56Stones flew in every direction,
00:06:58and Silas was forced to retreat several steps,
00:07:00the smile vanishing from his face.
00:07:02It was a dragon I had never seen before.
00:07:04His entire body was covered in gray-white stone scales,
00:07:07and he was much larger than Silas.
00:07:09His dark gold, slit-poopy old eyes swept coldly over everyone present.
00:07:13There were no ornate decorations on him,
00:07:15and his scales were covered in scars from battle,
00:07:18making him look like a piece of ancient rock weathered by wind, frost, and time.
00:07:22High Priest Alden collapsed to the ground in terror.
00:07:36He lowered his head,
00:07:37and his dark gold, slit-poop old eyes settled on me.
00:07:40His gaze was cold and domineering,
00:07:43as if he were already looking at something that belonged to him.
00:07:49This bride belongs to me.
00:07:52Silas's expression changed.
00:07:54Corbyn, this bride was offered to me by the human clans.
00:07:59The Drawing of Lots has already decided it.
00:08:02You have no right to stow to steal her.
00:08:11The Drawing of Lots.
00:08:14My legs trembled as I walked toward him.
00:08:22My name is Corbyn.
00:08:24Tell me, do you want to choose that vile, silver-scale dragon, or me?
00:08:28At that moment, hope rose inside me for the first time.
00:08:31Perhaps, in the hands of this unfamiliar dragon, I might still have a chance to live.
00:08:36Lord Corbyn, I choose you.
00:08:38The moment I spoke, everyone was stunned,
00:08:40while Silas stared at me with a gaze cold enough to kill.
00:08:43Corbyn whistled sharply toward Silas, then spread his dragon wings,
00:08:47pulled me into his arms and rose into the air.
00:08:53From the ground below, I heard Silas roar in fury.
00:09:01Corbyn, just wait!
00:09:03I will kill you!
00:09:07Corbyn lingered in the air for a moment,
00:09:09then answered him with complete seriousness.
00:09:16I will be waiting in my cavern.
00:09:19You had better actually come.
00:09:24The wind roared past us as Corbyn carried me through the sky,
00:09:28his arms steady around me while I looked up at the sharp, emotionless line of his profile,
00:09:32still struggling to understand what had just happened.
00:09:39Why did you take me?
00:09:46I finally asked.
00:09:47He didn't look at me, his gaze fixed ahead as he answered flatly.
00:09:54Because that bastard Silas doesn't deserve someone like you.
00:09:58That's it?
00:10:01I frowned, studying him with suspicion.
00:10:04In my previous life, when Cecilia had been chosen as Silas's bride,
00:10:08no dragon had ever come to take her away, not a single one.
00:10:11For a moment, he didn't respond,
00:10:13and I thought I heard the faintest hint of a sigh carried away by the wind.
00:10:18That's it.
00:10:21I didn't believe him, not even a little, but I had no intention of pushing further.
00:10:25As long as I hadn't become Silas's bride, then no matter the reason, I still had a chance to survive.
00:10:31He flew for a long time before finally descending near a secluded cavern tucked deep within the mountains.
00:10:37When we landed, he set me down and gestured toward the entrance.
00:10:41Go in.
00:10:42I didn't move.
00:10:44Instead, I looked up at him and asked quietly.
00:10:46Corbyn, are you going to kill me?
00:10:51His brows drew together immediately, irritation flashing across his dark gold, slit-poopled eyes.
00:10:58Don't compare me to those creatures who amuse themselves by tormenting human girls!
00:11:03He said sharply, clearly offended.
00:11:06I followed him inside.
00:11:13The moment we stepped into the cavern, he began pulling out everything he had stored.
00:11:17Piles of gold coins, clusters of glittering gemstones, anything that caught the light,
00:11:22and laid them out in front of me as if presenting something important.
00:11:25I stared at him, confused, unable to understand what he was doing.
00:11:29As my bribed.
00:11:32He said, completely serious.
00:11:38It's only natural that I share the things I value most with you.
00:11:45What?
00:11:47He straightened slightly, his expression turning stern as he added,
00:12:06His pupils sharpened, his voice dropping into a low threat.
00:12:10I'll burn you to ashes.
00:12:12But if you behave and stay as my bride, everything here belongs to you.
00:12:18I can bring you food from anywhere, anything you want to eat.
00:12:22And I can take you flying wherever you wish.
00:12:27He was smiling as he said it, smiling, and somehow that made it even more unreal.
00:12:32His bluntness left me momentarily dazed because nothing about this resembled what I remembered from my previous life.
00:12:38When I had become Zarek's bride, he had despised my presence.
00:12:41He was clearly irritated that a human female had been forced into his territory.
00:12:46Neither of us had been given a choice.
00:12:48He could not refuse the dragon god's will.
00:12:50And I could not refuse my clans.
00:12:52Whenever he was in a foul mood, he would knock over the food I had carefully prepared.
00:12:58Or tear apart anything I had tried to arrange in his cavern, leaving chaos behind him.
00:13:03He left without a second thought while I lived like someone beneath even a servant.
00:13:07Doing everything I could just to avoid being cast aside.
00:13:10Corbin, on the other hand, had already prepared food.
00:13:13This feeling of being cared for felt so foreign to me.
00:13:16After we ate, the sky outside had long since darkened.
00:13:19And the cold of night began creeping into the cavern.
00:13:23I hesitated as I looked toward where he usually slept.
00:13:27Realizing immediately that it wasn't a place meant for a human at all.
00:13:30He simply lay across his hoard of gold and gemstones as if they were ordinary ground.
00:13:35Was I supposed to sleep like that too?
00:13:37That would be unbearably uncomfortable.
00:13:41While I was still debating where I should go, Corbin suddenly disappeared deeper into his hoard.
00:13:46Returning moments later, dragging out a thick blanket.
00:13:51He carefully spread it across a cleared patch of ground.
00:13:54You are my bride, so we should sleep together.
00:13:57People need something to warm their hearts, don't they?
00:13:59Yes.
00:14:03This kindness, unknown in my past life, made my head spin.
00:14:07In his own way, he provided the safest sanctuary.
00:14:09Perhaps the turning point of fate lies within this warm night.
00:14:13Sleep together, just like that?
00:14:14Everything was moving far too fast.
00:14:16I wasn't ready for this.
00:14:18Corbin, are you serious about this?
00:14:19The cave is cold and night.
00:14:21We should share the warmth.
00:14:22Before I could process it, he had already slipped under the blanket.
00:14:26It's warm now.
00:14:27Come in, Ella.
00:14:28He was clearly intending to warm it for me first.
00:14:31Thank you.
00:14:32I'll just stay on this side.
00:14:33But to my surprise, exhaustion crept in almost immediately.
00:14:37The warmth pulled me toward sleep before I could resist.
00:14:40You're so small.
00:14:41And so fragile.
00:14:42I felt the blanket shift as Corbin tugged it more securely around me.
00:14:46His arms came around me instinctively.
00:14:49It was so warm.
00:14:50A warmth I had forgotten existed.
00:14:52You're my bride now.
00:14:53I have to take good care of you.
00:14:54I can't let you get cold.
00:14:56You're far too weak.
00:14:57Dragon caverns were never warm, especially at night.
00:15:00In my previous life, there were nights when I was so cold.
00:15:03Zarek never cared if I could endure the freezing dark.
00:15:06Zarek, please, it's so cold.
00:15:08May I-
00:15:08Don't touch me.
00:15:09You're just a weak, useless human.
00:15:11I tried to move closer to him for warmth, only to be pushed away.
00:15:14The only time he allowed me near was when he needed me.
00:15:17But now, this warmth feels so real.
00:15:19Corbin is different.
00:15:20He doesn't look at me with disgust.
00:15:22Are you really this kind, or is this just another dream?
00:15:25For the first time in two lives, I felt safe.
00:15:28The treasures in this cave are cold, but the heart of its owner is not.
00:15:32Sleep well, little bride.
00:15:34I'm here.
00:15:35The defense I built over a lifetime was crumbling.
00:15:37Maybe choosing the silent stone dragon was the best decision I ever made.
00:15:41You're awake already?
00:15:43Drink this.
00:15:43It will help your body stay warm.
00:15:45His touch no longer felt like a threat.
00:15:47Thank you, Corbin, for everything.
00:15:49A new day began, and with it, a new life I never dared to imagine.
00:15:53I had never thought a cold dragon's cave could be this warm.
00:15:57I slept so peacefully.
00:15:58In Corbin's clumsy but sincere care my broken heart seems to be healing.
00:16:02But this peace was soon shattered by a familiar voice from outside.
00:16:06Zarek, I'm your bride.
00:16:08Don't worry, I'll take good care of you.
00:16:10Cecilia, she is walking down that path after all.
00:16:13This feeling of being cherished.
00:16:15I never dared to dream of it before.
00:16:17I had to see for myself how the wheel of fate would turn this time.
00:16:20Zarek, the man of my nightmares, was standing there.
00:16:23Get out, you call yourself a bride?
00:16:25Are you trying to die?
00:16:26Pain is only the first gift he gives you.
00:16:28How can you say that?
00:16:29I am your bride.
00:16:30If you didn't want one, why did you appear at the altar?
00:16:33This scene is exactly like my previous life.
00:16:35I know you don't like me, but I truly want to take care of you.
00:16:39Just think of me as a human servant, alright?
00:16:42To survive, she's imitating my past humbleness.
00:16:45A servant?
00:16:46Interesting.
00:16:46Then act like one.
00:16:47Never let me hear the word bride again.
00:16:49She succeeded, but she has fallen into the abyss.
00:16:51Or I will tear your throat out myself.
00:16:54Zarek never changes.
00:16:55I am the one who changed.
00:16:57In this life, I am no longer that lowly servant.
00:16:59Corbin, that silent stone dragon is my salvation.
00:17:03If my sister wants that glory, let her enjoy it.
00:17:06I will wait here for my dragon to return.
00:17:11Corbin, you're back.
00:17:12Did I wake you?
00:17:14I?
00:17:14I picked some fruit.
00:17:15No, I just woke up.
00:17:17Thank you, Corbin.
00:17:17The armor is cold, but my heart is warm.
00:17:19I'm glad you like them.
00:17:21They're very sweet.
00:17:22This simple conversation is a miracle to me.
00:17:24The storm continues outside, but for now I am safe.
00:17:28Zarek, Cecilia, we will settle our scores later.
00:17:30This time, I will be the one to decide my fate.
00:17:33He didn't even look back.
00:17:35To Zarek, we are nothing but tools.
00:17:37I can hear his heavy footsteps fading into the darkness, leaving her in the dust.
00:17:42In my past life, I was the one kneeling there.
00:17:44Now it's her turn.
00:17:45Alara, you... you're still alive?
00:17:47If you're still alive, Cecilia, why wouldn't I be?
00:17:50Don't flatter yourself.
00:17:52Zarek won't take long before he accepts me.
00:17:54She thinks she knows him.
00:17:55She thinks she can tame the beast.
00:17:57As for you, you were supposed to belong to Silas.
00:18:00Now you've been tainted by a mere stone dragon.
00:18:03A mere stone dragon has given me more respect than Zarek ever gave you.
00:18:07Respect?
00:18:07You're sleeping in a cave of rocks.
00:18:10You're a disgrace.
00:18:11You'll be dead soon enough.
00:18:12Silas doesn't let go of what he thinks is his.
00:18:14She's so certain.
00:18:16Because in the timeline she remembers, Zarek eventually loved me.
00:18:19But that wasn't love.
00:18:20It was an obsession that ended in blood.
00:18:23I will be the queen of the black dragon and you will be a corpse in the mud.
00:18:26Then I wish you luck, sister.
00:18:28You'll need every bit of it to survive his love.
00:18:30How dare you look at me with pity.
00:18:32The ground is shaking.
00:18:34Someone powerful is coming.
00:18:36Silas wouldn't dare lay a hand on my bride.
00:18:38Did I hear someone threatening what belongs to me?
00:18:40You, the stone dragon.
00:18:42For a moment the coldness in his eyes completely vanished.
00:18:45I don't care who Silas is.
00:18:47If he comes, he'll find only a grave.
00:18:50He's always so quiet, but when he speaks, the world listens.
00:18:53You think he can protect you forever?
00:18:55You're a traitor to your bloodline.
00:18:57My bloodline sold me to a monster.
00:18:59I owe you nothing.
00:19:00Leave.
00:19:01Now, before I lose my patience.
00:19:03This isn't over, Alara.
00:19:05Don't you dare forget your mission.
00:19:06Mission?
00:19:07What are you talking about?
00:19:08Are you alright?
00:19:09Did she hurt you?
00:19:10I'm fine, Corbin.
00:19:11She's just lost in her own delusions.
00:19:14I won't let anyone take you back.
00:19:15Not Silas.
00:19:16Not Zarek.
00:19:17For the first time, I believe someone might actually fight for me.
00:19:21Cecilia is playing a dangerous game, and I need to be ready for the fallout.
00:19:25The storm is coming, Alara.
00:19:27But my mountain will stand.
00:19:29Whatever mission they planned, I am no one's pawn.
00:19:31I didn't look back.
00:19:33In this life, I choose my own path.
00:19:35Ayla, you are abandoning your mission, our family's honor.
00:19:38Mission?
00:19:38You don't even believe in that yourself, Cecilia.
00:19:41How dare you?
00:19:42It's the destiny of our bloodline.
00:19:44The only thing I care about is whether I get to stay alive.
00:19:47She seemed desperate.
00:19:48What mission was she talking about?
00:19:50It's a long story, Corbin.
00:19:51A story built on blood and lies.
00:19:53I wondered if a dragon could truly understand human suffering.
00:19:57Let's walk.
00:19:57I'll tell you about the protection we buy with our lives.
00:20:03Every 50 years, humans offer tribute brides to the dragon clans.
00:20:07Tribute brides?
00:20:08For what purpose?
00:20:09In exchange for protection from the demon-born horde.
00:20:12The demon-born?
00:20:14They are a plague to all living things.
00:20:17But in reality, that so-called protection is nothing more than a lie.
00:20:20A lie?
00:20:21The Asian packs are sacred to my kind.
00:20:24Sacred to you, perhaps.
00:20:25But to us, it's a death sentence.
00:20:27When the demon-born attack, the dragons are always late.
00:20:30I never knew humans felt this way about our protection.
00:20:33They come at all.
00:20:34Most of the time, humans are left alone.
00:20:36Left to defend themselves with sticks and stones.
00:20:39Yet, they still convince themselves they're being protected.
00:20:41It's almost laughable, isn't it?
00:20:43Isla, I'm sorry.
00:20:45I didn't know.
00:20:46I forgot.
00:20:47You're a dragon.
00:20:48I shouldn't have said that.
00:20:49Please, don't be angry.
00:20:51You're not wrong.
00:20:52Most dragons are exactly like that.
00:20:54They hide in their caves, hoarding gold while the world burns.
00:20:57I'm not.
00:20:58I will not be one of them.
00:21:01His words?
00:21:01They were like a warm breeze in a frozen world.
00:21:04Drink this.
00:21:05It will help you sleep.
00:21:07Corbin, I don't care whether you are or not.
00:21:09I know.
00:21:10You've been through so much.
00:21:11I just want to stay alive.
00:21:13That's my only mission now.
00:21:14Then let that be our mission.
00:21:16Together.
00:21:17For the first time, I felt something other than fear.
00:21:19Maybe, just maybe, I can survive this world after all.
00:21:22He didn't argue, nor did he try to convince me.
00:21:25Instead, he simply pulled me into his arms.
00:21:27My bride, I won't let anything happen to you.
00:21:30I promise.
00:21:31It was a promise made without needing to be believed.
00:21:33But at that moment, I wanted to believe it.
00:21:36The world outside is cruel.
00:21:37But here, you are safe.
00:21:39His hold was firm yet careful like a silent anchor.
00:21:42We stayed like that for a long time in our own world.
00:21:45This was the last piece before the storm.
00:21:47A few days later, the air changed.
00:21:49The scent of blood drifted through the mountain air.
00:21:52It was sharp and unmistakable, reaching even our cavern.
00:21:55Zarek had been injured, heavily.
00:21:57I knew that place too well.
00:21:58It was a den of nightmares.
00:21:59But this time, I was just a witness to their destruction.
00:22:02Cecilia had been staying by his side the entire time.
00:22:05You look so perfect when you are quiet, my king.
00:22:08While he lay unconscious, she would sneak close to him.
00:22:11Soon your blood will belong to me, and so will your power.
00:22:14She was trying to provoke his heat, forcing an intimacy.
00:22:17Wake up, Zarek.
00:22:18See who is truly here for you.
00:22:19Yes, feel me, Zarek.
00:22:21I am your only bride.
00:22:22What a pathetic struggle for a crown of thorns.
00:22:25How dare you touch me.
00:22:27Zarek, please.
00:22:28I was only...
00:22:30When he woke, he reacted exactly as I remembered.
00:22:33You disgusting leech.
00:22:35Get out of my sight.
00:22:35No, I am the only one who stayed.
00:22:37I love you.
00:22:38Your love is a curse.
00:22:39You are nothing to me.
00:22:40He struck her, and rejected her without hesitation.
00:22:43If I could stand, I would kill you myself.
00:22:45Why?
00:22:46Why do you hate me so much?
00:22:47His injuries left him unable to drive her away,
00:22:50trapping them in a tense struggle that neither could escape.
00:22:53I chose a different path, and I will never look back.
00:22:56Because my hope is right here, beside me.
00:22:58I thought escaping him would end the nightmare,
00:23:00but the echoes of his cruelty still reach me.
00:23:05Zarek was a wounded beast, and a wounded beast is the most dangerous.
00:23:09Zarek, please.
00:23:10The herbs will help the internal bleeding.
00:23:12Get this filth away from me.
00:23:15Every day repeated itself, a cycle of rejection and obsession.
00:23:19Do you think a few weeds can heal a dragon's pride?
00:23:22Aye.
00:23:22I will go back to the mountains.
00:23:24I will gather more.
00:23:25She would return to the peaks, even when her own wounds hadn't closed.
00:23:29You are thinking about them again.
00:23:30I can feel the darkness spreading, Corbin.
00:23:32It's like a poison.
00:23:36She thought devotion could buy his heart.
00:23:38You need to eat to regain your strength, my lord.
00:23:40I told you to stay out of my sight.
00:23:43Then I will cook again, until you accept it.
00:23:45Why are you so persistent?
00:23:46You're nothing but a parasite.
00:23:48Because I am the only one who stayed.
00:23:49She called it love.
00:23:51I called it a death sentence.
00:23:55The heat is burning from within.
00:23:57And then came the moment where pride died completely.
00:24:00I can help you, Zarek.
00:24:01I can ease the pain.
00:24:03You?
00:24:03You are shameless.
00:24:04Call me whatever you want.
00:24:05Just let me be the one.
00:24:07You disgust me more than the wound itself.
00:24:09Even a disgusted dragon needs a way to vent his fire.
00:24:11The black dragon's aura is unstable.
00:24:14He is losing control.
00:24:15She's throwing herself into the abyss, thinking she can fly.
00:24:18Do you really want this to be a mere tool for a beast?
00:24:21If it means I am yours, yes.
00:24:25In my past life, I was the one in that darkness.
00:24:28Now I watch her choose it.
00:24:29You are safe here, Ayala.
00:24:31His shadow cannot reach you.
00:24:33I know, but the storm is coming for everyone.
00:24:38There is no hope in a heart built on plunder and violence.
00:24:41Let them destroy each other.
00:24:43We have a miracle to protect.
00:24:44The real hope is yet to be born.
00:24:46Just as I expected, Zarek finally accepted her.
00:24:49By the time his injuries were nearly healed, he no longer rejected her presence.
00:24:53Zarek, I've brought the medicine.
00:24:55Please, let me tend to you.
00:25:00You, you're letting me stay?
00:25:02You've proven your persistence, Cecilia.
00:25:04Don't make me regret it.
00:25:05He allowed her to remain by his side, as though she already belonged there.
00:25:09Not long after, he took her.
00:25:10She was so exhausted that she couldn't even get out of bed for three days.
00:25:14It was worth it.
00:25:15Everything I suffered.
00:25:16It was finally worth it.
00:25:18When she finally recovered, she insisted on coming to see me.
00:25:21Zarek supported her as if he were gentle and attentive,
00:25:24as though none of his earlier cruelty had ever existed.
00:25:29Alara, look at me.
00:25:30Do you see the difference now?
00:25:32Zarek has accepted me.
00:25:33It won't be long before I'm carrying his child.
00:25:36I'll become the pride of the human clans,
00:25:38the mother of the next black dragon,
00:25:40and you.
00:25:41You're nothing more than a woman taken by a savage dragon.
00:25:44No one will ever want you.
00:25:46You are a disgrace to our bloodline.
00:25:47If that is what you need to believe to sleep at night, then so be it.
00:25:51You're just jealous.
00:25:52You're rotting here in the dust while I rise.
00:25:54Calm yourself, Cecilia.
00:25:56We shouldn't expect her to understand greatness.
00:25:58I looked at Zarek.
00:25:59The expression on his face.
00:26:01The controlled calm.
00:26:02It was all exactly the same as before.
00:26:04Zarek didn't change.
00:26:06He calculated every move, every touch.
00:26:08He was playing a game.
00:26:09If he had accepted Cecilia, then he had made a deal.
00:26:12We will be leaving now.
00:26:13Try not to be too lonely, Alara.
00:26:15Goodbye, little sister.
00:26:16Try not to get buried in the rocks.
00:26:18Her words had no weight for me.
00:26:20They were just noise.
00:26:21Are you alright?
00:26:22Their presence always brings a storm.
00:26:24I've never been better, Corbin.
00:26:26I'm finally seeing the truth clearly.
00:26:28I had already decided I would never return to the human clans.
00:26:31And knowing him, that deal could only be about one thing.
00:26:34Power.
00:26:35Let them have their throne of lies.
00:26:37I have found something real here.
00:26:39Truth that Zarek will never understand.
00:26:41The game of survival has only just begun.
00:26:43And this time, I won't be the one to burn.
00:26:45If I wasn't mistaken, the condition was simple.
00:26:48He needed an heir, a female hatchling.
00:26:51Cecilia would only give him male offspring.
00:26:53Again and again.
00:26:54Enough.
00:26:55This place reeks.
00:26:56We're leaving.
00:26:57I met his gaze briefly and saw it clearly.
00:26:59Not affection, not warmth, only irritation and calculation.
00:27:02Alright, let's go before my dear sister stares at you long enough to fall in love.
00:27:07I might get jealous.
00:27:08Cecilia either couldn't see it or chose not to.
00:27:11Zarek, you're too good to me.
00:27:12Even Alara won't be able to resist you.
00:27:15I have no interest in her.
00:27:16Don't look so miserable, sister.
00:27:18It's unsightly.
00:27:19She has no idea she's just a pawn in his game.
00:27:21Which meant she was already walking toward her own end.
00:27:24The silence that followed was heavy with the stench of betrayal.
00:27:27I turned back to the shadows, the only place I felt safe.
00:27:31The fire was small, but it was real.
00:27:32Not like Zarek's hollow promises.
00:27:35I had to be ready for the storm that was coming.
00:27:37Corbin's arrival was like a breath of fresh air after a suffocating fog.
00:27:40What did they want?
00:27:42Zarek isn't the type to show up without a reason.
00:27:45They came to show off.
00:27:46Show off?
00:27:47Yes.
00:27:47Cecilia wanted me to know that Zarek has accepted her.
00:27:50And that she'll soon be carrying his child.
00:27:52I could see the weight of my words settling on his shoulders.
00:27:55A child of the black dragon?
00:27:57This changes everything.
00:27:59It changes nothing for us, Corbin.
00:28:01We already knew Zarek's greed knows no bounds.
00:28:04But the air?
00:28:05Zarek will be more dangerous than ever.
00:28:07A female air is what he wants, but he will never get it.
00:28:10Cecilia is walking into a trap of her own making.
00:28:13I trust your insight, Ellara.
00:28:14Whatever happens, I will protect you from the storm.
00:28:17For the first time, I wasn't facing the future alone.
00:28:20In this quiet territory, I thought I knew Corbin.
00:28:22But some questions change everything.
00:28:26He looked awkward.
00:28:27A faint flush crept across his face.
00:28:30Do you want one too?
00:28:31What?
00:28:31A child.
00:28:32Like what Cecilia expects.
00:28:34No, I don't want to have children.
00:28:35It hurts.
00:28:36I don't want that pain again.
00:28:38I see.
00:28:39I didn't mean to.
00:28:40He didn't push.
00:28:41He just committed my answer to memory.
00:28:44Over the next few days, Corbin changed.
00:28:47You're leaving early again?
00:28:48Rest, Ella.
00:28:50I'll be back after dark.
00:28:51He never explained where he went or what he was doing.
00:28:53There was a quiet sense of purpose in his movements that I couldn't quite place.
00:28:57But it wasn't just Corbin.
00:28:59Someone else was missing.
00:29:00Cecilia, someone like her thrives on showing off even the smallest advantage.
00:29:04Yet, I hadn't seen her at all.
00:29:06It was strange.
00:29:07She would never miss a chance to mock me unless...
00:29:10Unless she simply couldn't come.
00:29:12Zarek must have been keeping her constantly occupied.
00:29:14To the point where she couldn't even walk properly.
00:29:17That is the price of your favor, sister.
00:29:22Thank you, Eja.
00:29:23He's hiding something.
00:29:24Something big.
00:29:25Corbin, what is happening out there?
00:29:27Tell me the truth.
00:29:28The balance of the Dragon Realm is shifting, Ella.
00:29:31I am making sure that when the storm hits, you are safe.
00:29:35Even if I don't give you an air?
00:29:37Especially because I only want you.
00:29:41In the darkness of the Dragon World, he is the only light I trust.
00:29:47She will bear my mark.
00:29:48No one escapes the shadow.
00:29:50The game has just begun.
00:29:51I will protect my destiny.
00:29:55Corbin has been disappearing into the shadows for several nights now.
00:29:58I tried to find answers in the silence, but instead I found an unwelcome guest.
00:30:02The sound of silk dragging against stone, a sound I knew too well.
00:30:07Cecilia, she had crossed the desolate paths just to find me.
00:30:10Half a month later, she finally appeared.
00:30:12The moment I saw her, I understood everything.
00:30:15Lara, you look so miserable in this damp hole.
00:30:18I see you've brought Zarek's curse with you.
00:30:20Curse?
00:30:21No, this is my triumph.
00:30:22It won't be long before I give birth to Zarek's child.
00:30:24You have no idea what kind of monster you are carrying.
00:30:27Zarek told me that once the baby is born, he'll ask the Dragon God for greater protection.
00:30:32He will grant our people the ultimate blessing through this child.
00:30:35Zarek only uses people.
00:30:37He doesn't know the meaning of protection.
00:30:39You're just jealous because you're stuck with a silent rock.
00:30:42And after that, he's going to return to the human world with me.
00:30:46We'll live there together, away from this desolate wasteland.
00:30:49I will be the queen of the Golden Castle once again.
00:30:51Everyone who looked down on us will kneel at my feet.
00:30:54You are living in a dream, Cecilia, a dream built on blood.
00:30:57You're just bitter.
00:30:58You have nothing, while I have everything.
00:31:00I have my freedom.
00:31:02You have a parasite that will consume you.
00:31:04How dare you?
00:31:05This child is a blessing from the Dragon God.
00:31:07The Dragon God?
00:31:08Zarek doesn't even believe in the gods.
00:31:11He loves me.
00:31:11He will do anything for our future.
00:31:14Then why are you here, Cecilia?
00:31:15Why do you need my validation?
00:31:16She was speechless, her eyes darting around like a trapped animal.
00:31:20I came to show you what you lost.
00:31:22Stay here and rot with your stone dragon.
00:31:24She left as quickly as she came, leaving only the stench of desperation behind.
00:31:28She is walking straight into her own destruction.
00:31:30But Zarek's move is faster than I expected.
00:31:33The shadow is already here.
00:31:35The fire flickered, sensing the darkness that Zarek's bloodline brought into this room.
00:31:39Corbin, where are you?
00:31:40I need to know what you found.
00:31:42I won't let the tragedy of my past life repeat itself.
00:31:45The real battle for survival has just begun.
00:31:47The storm is coming and this time I will be the one standing when it clears.
00:31:51I watched her draped in gold and lies, unaware that her so-called blessing was a death sentence.
00:31:56Look at this.
00:31:58Zarek has given me more gold than our father ever saw in his entire life.
00:32:01Is that so?
00:32:02Cecilia, I truly envy you.
00:32:04Once the child is born, Zarek will take me back to the human world as his queen.
00:32:08I knew better.
00:32:09Zarek never intended to fulfill that promise.
00:32:11You will be stuck here with your silent stone dragon while I rule the world again.
00:32:16Then why wait?
00:32:16If he loves you so much, why hasn't he taken you back to see our family already?
00:32:20Because the dragon god must grant permission.
00:32:23Only Zarek is powerful enough to ask.
00:32:25The idea that Zarek would willingly settle in a human village was absurd.
00:32:32Then why wait until after the child is born?
00:32:35Corbin, what are you doing in Zarek's territory?
00:32:38Lara, if you want to go back, I can take you to the human world right now.
00:32:42That is a lie.
00:32:43Zarek said only he has the privilege.
00:32:44If you miss your family that much, why hasn't Zarek taken you back to see them?
00:32:49He, he said it is for my protection.
00:32:51The dragon god is strict.
00:32:53The dragon god allows any dragon with a human bride to move freely between the world.
00:32:58Her pride cracked, replaced by something dangerously close to panic.
00:33:02You are lying.
00:33:03You are just jealous of my black dragon child.
00:33:06I have no reason to lie.
00:33:07Zarek simply has no desire to set foot in a human village.
00:33:11He finds us disgusting, Cecilia. Even the one carrying his seed is nothing but a tool.
00:33:15No, he loves me. These treasures prove it. They must.
00:33:19These are just cold stones to him. A small price to keep your mouth shut.
00:33:23We are leaving. This place reeks of rot and deceit.
00:33:26Wait, Corbin. Tell me you are lying. Tell me I am special.
00:33:30Ask your master yourself. If you dare to face the truth.
00:33:33I wondered what expression she would wear when her entire world finally collapsed.
00:33:37The world I remembered was waiting, but it was never meant for her.
00:33:41It can't be. It can't be true. Zarek loves me.
00:33:44Goodbye, sister. Enjoy your golden cage.
00:33:47Do you truly wish to return to the humans, Elara?
00:33:51Not yet. I want to see the world you promised me first.
00:33:54Then hold on tight. We have much to do before the storm arrives.
00:33:58For the first time, I felt the wind of freedom leaving the dragon's lies behind.
00:34:02I could see the cracks forming. Not just in the ground, but in the lies Cecilia clung to.
00:34:07What are you implying? You are just a brute who stole a bride at the ceremony.
00:34:11Don't try to drive a wedge between me and Zarek.
00:34:14Words are the shield of the weak.
00:34:16How dare you look at me like that? Zarek will have your head for this.
00:34:20We are leaving.
00:34:21Where are we going, Corbin?
00:34:22To the boundary. To see what lies beyond the lies.
00:34:25He didn't wait for her next insult. He chose a world where her voice didn't matter.
00:34:29Hold on tight, Ella. The wind will be fierce.
00:34:33The wind? It is so strong.
00:34:34Lean to me, Ella. I have got you.
00:34:37He was so careful. Every tilt of his wings, every shift in speed. It was all for me.
00:34:42You are doing this on purpose, aren't you? Making it smooth for me?
00:34:46A dragon protects his heart.
00:34:47Zarek never flew like this with Cecilia. He treated her like cargo.
00:34:51Because to him, she is.
00:34:53It is beautiful yet terrifying. The end of one world and the start of another. Thank you. I... I didn't
00:34:59feel sick at all.
00:35:00Good. You will need your strength for what is coming.
00:35:03He is here.
00:35:04Stay behind me.
00:35:05You fly fast for a stone dragon, Corbin.
00:35:07You fly recklessly for a king, Zarek.
00:35:10In my past life, I was the one retching under the weight of a black dragon's cruelty.
00:35:15Cecilia, are you alright? You look pale.
00:35:17I am... I am fine. Just the altitude.
00:35:19But I saw it. The flicker of pure disgust in his eyes. He was annoyed by her weakness.
00:35:25Don't look at me like that, Ella. I told you. I am fine.
00:35:28You are trembling, Cecilia. Your body is rejecting something.
00:35:31The baby is a black dragon. It is stronger than anything you can imagine.
00:35:35Strength should not cost the mother her life.
00:35:37What you have is a death sentence, Cecilia. You just haven't read the verdict yet.
00:35:41The lines were drawn. On one side, a dying lie. On the other, a terrifying truth.
00:35:46The wind here is cold, but the chains of my past life were colder.
00:35:50Zarek is taking me back as well. He was only waiting because flying would have been too hard on me.
00:35:55I said nothing. There was no need to argue with the ghost of my former self.
00:35:59He wants me to have the best life possible in the dragon's sanctum. Can your stone dragon give you that?
00:36:05She would understand that the cost of realization is far greater than any words.
00:36:09Do you want to go back?
00:36:10I froze. In my previous life, Zarek never gave me the choice. Yes, more than anything.
00:36:15Then, we shall go.
00:36:21I didn't look back. Her world was ending, but mine was just beginning. Take me home, Corbin.
00:36:28The roar of the wind was the most beautiful music I had ever heard.
00:36:32Are you alright up there?
00:36:33I've never been better, thank you, Corbin.
00:36:35Hold on tight. We are crossing the border.
00:36:38He let me ride on his back, trusting me to hold on, trusting me not to fall.
00:36:42For the first time, I am the master of my own destiny. You are different from them, aren't you?
00:36:47There it is. The world I thought I would never see again.
00:36:53We are almost there, Ella. Welcome back.
00:36:55I am coming back to take what is mine. And this time, I have a true ally by my side.
00:37:00Returning to Valehaven wasn't the homecoming I expected.
00:37:03To them, I was just a stain on their honor. In their eyes, I wasn't a survivor. I was the
00:37:08bride stolen from the sacred ceremony.
00:37:10You dare show your face here after shaming our entire clan, Ella?
00:37:14She is my mate. Watch your tongue, old man, or I might forget we are in your village.
00:37:20A thief and a disgrace. Get out of my sight. Go to the ruins at the edge of the woods.
00:37:24Let it be, Corbin. Their ignorance isn't worth your strength. We have what we came for.
00:37:29Don't expect a single drop of water from us. You are dead to this clan.
00:37:33Keep your water, Marlo. Soon you'll be begging for mercy instead.
00:37:37While I was cast out, Cecilia lived like a queen in the heart of the village.
00:37:41More wine. And make sure it's chilled this time, you useless girl.
00:37:45Of course, Holy One. Anything for the mother of the Black Dragon's heir.
00:37:49Zarek smelling of death and sulfur, carrying a gift that cost him dearly.
00:37:53Cecilia, I have brought you a gift from the edge of the world, the dragon blood fruit.
00:37:56You truly are the only one who understands my worth, Zarek. This child will be a god.
00:38:01Eat. It will make our child strong enough to tear through anything, including you.
00:38:06Do you see this? I am the future of this world. Bow lower, you worms.
00:38:10You are the vessel for my legacy. Nothing less than the best for you, my dear.
00:38:14Our new home was a pile of stones and broken dreams, far from the warmth of the fire.
00:38:18I will make this place safe for you, Ella. I promise. No one will hurt you here.
00:38:23They think they've won, Corbin. They have no idea that the blessing they celebrate is a death sentence.
00:38:29Does it hurt? Seeing them treat her like a goddess while you are cast out?
00:38:33No. I feel pity. Cecilia is dancing on the edge of a volcano, and she's enjoying the view.
00:38:39As long as I'm here, no dragon or man will touch you. I am your shield.
00:38:45I know. That's why I chose you over the tyrant. You are the only truth in this village of lies.
00:38:50Look at me. I am the future of this clan. Every woman in Valehaven envies me.
00:38:55Please, my lady. The dress is too tight for the ceremony. I didn't mean to.
00:38:59Then make it fit. Do I look like I care about your pathetic excuses?
00:39:03Power hasn't changed you, Cecilia. It only made you louder and more desperate.
00:39:07The beggar returns. Come to ask for scraps from my table. Or maybe you want a real roof.
00:39:13I came to see if you're still breathing. That dragon blood fruit has a heavy price, sister.
00:39:17Jealousy is such an ugly look on you, Ella. Zarek adores me. He risks his life for me.
00:39:23Cecilia, once the child is out, what's left of you? Just a hollow shell.
00:39:26Shut up. You're lying, guards. Throw this trash out of my palace.
00:39:30Look in the mirror, Cecilia. Your skin is turning as gray as the abyss. The end is coming.
00:39:35The countdown to her destruction has already begun. And I will be there to see it fall.
00:39:40In Verhaven, power is a lethal illusion, and my home is drowning in it.
00:39:44Cecilia has lost her mind, believing she is a goddess just because she carries a dragon's seed.
00:39:49Inside these walls, the air is thick with her arrogance and the scent of rotting fruit.
00:39:54Zarek brings me the finest treasures, yet you serve me this?
00:39:57It's sour. Are you trying to poison me and my child?
00:40:00Who allowed you to bring me something this awful? Answer me.
00:40:03I am the woman Zarek loves, and I am carrying the future of the black dragon.
00:40:06If anything happens to me, your worthless life won't even be enough to pay for it.
00:40:11Get out of my sight before I change my mind about letting you live.
00:40:14She thinks she is untouchable, but she is merely a gilded cage for Zarek's prize.
00:40:19I deserve better. I deserve everything.
00:40:21I watch from the shadows recording every sin. The storm is coming.
00:40:25Zarek is here. I can feel the coldness of the abyss following him.
00:40:29The black dragon lord doesn't care for justice, only for his vessel's comfort.
00:40:33Zarek, look, he tried to poison me with that foul fruit.
00:40:36If she says you are guilty, then you are. No explanations needed. Your life is forfeited.
00:40:41That's what happens when you cross me.
00:40:43Are you satisfied now, Cecilia?
00:40:45Yes, my lord. But I want more. I want the whole world to bow.
00:40:48He feeds her greed with gold and blood, ensuring the container remains happy.
00:40:52Look at all this. It's all mine.
00:40:57Will you bring me more, Zarek? More than what Ayla ever had?
00:41:01As long as you remain obedient, all of this is yours. Everything in Verhaven is your toy. Do not disappoint
00:41:06me.
00:41:08She is enjoying the feast before the slaughter.
00:41:11Poor Cecilia. The fruit is ripening and soon the harvest will begin.
00:41:15Cecilia didn't just want to show off. She wanted to crush me with her happiness.
00:41:19Careful with those. They are more valuable than this entire house.
00:41:23I looked at her and all I saw was a puppet dancing on Zarek's strings.
00:41:26Zarek loves me too much. He is so afraid I will get bored.
00:41:29He keeps finding these interesting things for me from different places.
00:41:33My room is already too full to hold them all, so I thought I would give you some.
00:41:37She thought these trinkets would make me jealous.
00:41:40Elara, if not for me, you probably would never see treasures like these.
00:41:44Consider it a sister's charity. You need it more than I do.
00:41:47Lifetime? I have seen better piles of gold in Corbin's trash corner.
00:41:51Corbin's cavern was overflowing with ancient artifacts.
00:41:54Corbin, we need to clear this out. It's taking up too much space.
00:41:58If you don't like them, throw them away. They are just stones.
00:42:02Corbin liked gold coins more. They were more practical anyway.
00:42:05Maybe I could take these to town and exchange them for gold coins.
00:42:08At least they didn't take up as much room.
00:42:10Don't touch them.
00:42:13Before I could react, a wave of intense heat swept past me.
00:42:19What are you doing? You monster. Those were Zarek's gifts.
00:42:25He didn't just burn them. He erased them.
00:42:28Corbin, why did you burn them? We could have used that gold.
00:42:31They carry the scent of a cursed dragon.
00:42:33A cursed dragon?
00:42:34Zarek covered those treasures with a cursed dragon's blight.
00:42:37Anyone who accepts them will be slowly poisoned.
00:42:40A gift?
00:42:41No, it was a death sentence wrapped in silk.
00:42:44No, Zarek wouldn't.
00:42:46He loves me.
00:42:47He said I was his queen.
00:42:48He loves his offspring.
00:42:50You are just disposable containers to him.
00:42:52He wasn't just trying to kill me, Cecilia.
00:42:54He was marking your territory with death.
00:42:56Shut up.
00:42:57You're just jealous.
00:42:58You're lying because you have nothing.
00:43:00We are leaving.
00:43:01This place reeks of rock.
00:43:02Tell your...
00:43:03Lord Zarek.
00:43:05His cheap tricks won't work here.
00:43:07Corbin hadn't been here, I would have brought that curse into our sanctuary.
00:43:11She is living in a golden cage built of poison, and she calls it grace.
00:43:14The treasures of the black dragon are nothing but ash.
00:43:18Thank you, Corbin, for seeing what I couldn't.
00:43:20But this time, I am not the one who will burn.
00:43:23The truth Corbin revealed that night was more terrifying than any nightmare.
00:43:27Then Cecilia, what will happen to her?
00:43:29Her body is already failing.
00:43:30Why do you think her temper has been getting worse?
00:43:35A cursed dragon's blight eats away at the mind.
00:43:38It shortens the life of whoever carries it.
00:43:40She won't live long if this continues.
00:43:42I said nothing.
00:43:43The weight of the secret felt like lead.
00:43:47It's just Zarek's twisted amusement.
00:43:49I told you before, he isn't a good dragon.
00:43:52And you're not allowed to compare me to him.
00:43:53I wasn't, truly.
00:43:55In that cold cave, his hand was the only warmth I had.
00:43:58Corbin, thank you.
00:43:59Thank you for saving me.
00:44:00We spent half a month in the human lands.
00:44:02A brief moment of peace.
00:44:06But we both knew this tranquility wouldn't last.
00:44:12Then Zarek came.
00:44:14He came to reclaim his prize.
00:44:16Cecilia's belly had grown visibly heavy, a burden of blood.
00:44:19It is time to lay the eggs in the dragon's sanctum.
00:44:21I will be the mother of the greatest dragon.
00:44:23He used the sanctum as an excuse to trap her forever.
00:44:26The entire clan fell into a state of blind anticipation.
00:44:29When the child is born, the balance of power will shift.
00:44:32Everyone was waiting for the child she carried.
00:44:35You should be our next clan leader, my lady.
00:44:37They acted as if the outcome had already been decided.
00:44:40Enjoy your glory while it lasts, my little container.
00:44:44As for Corbin and me, we were ghosts in their feast.
00:44:47No one cared when we left and no one cared when we returned.
00:44:50We are the only ones who see the coming storm.
00:44:53Let them drown in their own greed.
00:44:54We have our own path.
00:44:56The blood of the black dragon is already reaching for them.
00:45:01The bloody sacrifice is about to begin.
00:45:04A storm is gathering over Haven and no one will be spared.
00:45:07We had already been excluded from his world.
00:45:09That very night, Cecilia went into labor.
00:45:14Zarek didn't wait.
00:45:16He shifted into his true form immediately.
00:45:18His massive body coiled protectively and but not for her.
00:45:24He was dominating everything, like a king guarding his loot.
00:45:28Corbin and I stood outside, neither of us stepping in.
00:45:31It sounds... agonizing.
00:45:33Should we do something?
00:45:34Oh, we wait, we wait for the inevitable.
00:45:36Cecilia's screams echoed through the cavern, sharp and desperate.
00:45:40Listening to them I couldn't help but remember.
00:45:42In my previous life it was exactly the same.
00:45:45Zarek didn't even consider finding help.
00:45:47He didn't understand that human births required assistance.
00:45:50To him my pain had never mattered.
00:45:52The night dragged on.
00:45:53Only near midnight did the screams finally begin to fade.
00:45:56It sounded as though she had nothing left.
00:45:58As expected, Cecilia laid three eggs.
00:46:01Zarek would now take over the incubation himself.
00:46:03What he wanted had never changed.
00:46:05He needed a female hatchling.
00:46:07He needed power.
00:46:08You don't understand.
00:46:08I thought she'd die from the strain.
00:46:10Instead, she gave him three eggs.
00:46:13And he's guarding them.
00:46:14Don't tell me Zarek actually fell for her.
00:46:18Love?
00:46:19You think that's love?
00:46:20No.
00:46:20Zarek would never love Cecilia.
00:46:22The only thing he has ever cared about is the power granted by the dragon god.
00:46:26But the eggs, they are hers too.
00:46:31Doesn't that count?
00:46:32To him she was just the soil.
00:46:34Now that the seeds are sown, the soil is useless.
00:46:36You speak as if you've seen this ending before.
00:46:38I have.
00:46:39And it's much bloodier than you imagine.
00:46:41Corbin was confused, unable to follow my words.
00:46:44But he would understand soon enough.
00:46:46Everyone will understand soon enough.
00:46:48The end is already written in blood.
00:46:49When Cecilia regained consciousness, she found herself in Zarek's ruin.
00:46:54She learned she had laid three eggs, the price of her ambition.
00:46:57Despite her weakened state, she forced herself out of bed.
00:47:00I must show her.
00:47:01I must show Alara my victory.
00:47:03She came all the way to my cavern just to show off.
00:47:06She dragged her dying body through the barren cliffs,
00:47:09driven by a vanity more toxic than any dragon's breath.
00:47:12You will see Alara.
00:47:13You will finally see who is the superior one.
00:47:15I was waiting for her.
00:47:17I knew this moment would come.
00:47:21She looked like a ghost, haunting her own past.
00:47:24Alara, look at me.
00:47:26I've given Zarek three eggs.
00:47:27Three future kings.
00:47:29Once they hatch, he'll take me back to the human clans.
00:47:31I'll become the clan leader.
00:47:33I'll have power beyond your imagination.
00:47:35And you?
00:47:36You're nothing but a woman taken by another dragon.
00:47:38We shouldn't even be called sisters anymore.
00:47:41The next time you see me, you should bow.
00:47:43I didn't bother arguing.
00:47:44There was no point.
00:47:45Why waste time on someone standing at the edge of death?
00:47:48Wait until the day you actually become clan leader.
00:47:51Wait until then before you say things like that.
00:47:53Besides, I'm no longer the person I used to be.
00:47:56The moment I was pushed as an offering, that version of me died.
00:47:59You're the only one still clinging to the idea of going back.
00:48:04And tell me, are you really certain you'll be able to return?
00:48:07Do you truly believe Zarek will take you back?
00:48:10I saw the doubt flicker in her eyes, though she fought it.
00:48:13Wake up, Cecilia.
00:48:14Don't say I didn't warn you.
00:48:15Shut up.
00:48:16You know nothing.
00:48:17You're just jealous.
00:48:18He loves me.
00:48:19I am his queen.
00:48:20I will rule.
00:48:20Her anger was a mask for her growing terror.
00:48:23She was drowning in her own delusions.
00:48:25You will rot in this cave while I sit on the throne.
00:48:28Then go.
00:48:28Go back to your master.
00:48:29Go and see what fate awaits the mother of his eggs.
00:48:32She ran away from the truth, back into the abyss.
00:48:35The crown she worshipped was already broken.
00:48:37The final act of her tragedy has just begun.
00:48:39Being taken by that stone dragon must be miserable, isn't it?
00:48:44No one welcomes you back home.
00:48:46And even here, no one respects you.
00:48:54But don't worry.
00:48:55Once I become clan leader, I'll remember that we were sisters.
00:49:00I'll have Zarek speak to Silas for you.
00:49:04Maybe he'll take you back and put everything where it belongs.
00:49:07So that was it.
00:49:08Even now she still wanted to send me back.
00:49:11Back to Silas.
00:49:12Back to that life worse than death.
00:49:17Thank you for your concern.
00:49:20That night I thought I could finally escape the shadows.
00:49:23Corbin's warmth was the only thing pulling me under into a peaceful sleep.
00:49:27For a moment the world was quiet.
00:49:29But peace is a fragile thing in Verhaven.
00:49:33She spent those days intoxicated by a lie.
00:49:35I will soon stand above everyone else.
00:49:38This clan will finally have a leader they deserve.
00:49:40And my child will inherit everything.
00:49:42Zarek loves me.
00:49:43He needs me.
00:49:44Look at me, Aayla.
00:49:45Soon everyone will kneel before me.
00:49:47I am the mother of the future clan leader.
00:49:49You are just a shadow.
00:49:51You're chasing a ghost, Cecilia.
00:49:52It will consume you.
00:49:53You're just jealous of my glory.
00:49:55She failed to notice how Zarek's eyes had changed.
00:49:58For half a month he was obsessed with one thing.
00:50:02Almost.
00:50:03My legacy's almost here.
00:50:04Zarek, let me in.
00:50:06We should celebrate together.
00:50:07You have done your part, Cecilia.
00:50:09Now stay out.
00:50:09She repeated her triumph until even she believed it.
00:50:12He's just tired.
00:50:13He'll come back to me.
00:50:14I am the chosen one.
00:50:15No, Zarek, what are you doing?
00:50:17Let me go.
00:50:18The eggs need the strength of the mother to break the shell.
00:50:20No, I am your queen.
00:50:22You can't do this to me.
00:50:23You were a vessel.
00:50:24Nothing more.
00:50:28Aayla, help me.
00:50:29I warned her.
00:50:30I tried to save her in another life.
00:50:32But she chose the path of blood.
00:50:33He's not just hatching eggs.
00:50:35He's consuming her.
00:50:36We cannot wait any longer.
00:50:38We must end this.
00:50:40I know.
00:50:40The nightmare ends tonight.
00:50:42Then, let us face the darkness together.
00:50:45Aayla.
00:50:45Zarek thinks he's winning.
00:50:47But he's forgotten one thing.
00:50:48I've seen this ending before.
00:50:50And this time, I'm the one holding the blade.
00:50:52The air in the cave was thick with the scent of sulfur and death.
00:50:55Zarek remained in his true form.
00:50:57A silent mountain of shadow.
00:51:01Aayla, watch carefully.
00:51:03Witness the beginning of my true future.
00:51:05She insisted I be here.
00:51:06She wanted me to witness her triumph.
00:51:08My children are about to be born.
00:51:10Zarek will take me back.
00:51:11You will still be that pitiful woman dragged away during the ceremony.
00:51:14While I will be the one standing above everyone.
00:51:17Everyone.
00:51:18I didn't respond.
00:51:19There was no need to interrupt her dying illusion.
00:51:23The obsidian shells began to shake.
00:51:25Leaking a strange golden light.
00:51:28Zarek, look.
00:51:28They are coming.
00:51:29Our legacy is here.
00:51:30He didn't even look at her.
00:51:32To him, she was already a ghost.
00:51:33His presence was overwhelming.
00:51:35A predator waiting for its prize.
00:51:37Zarek, tell her.
00:51:38Tell Alara how powerful our children will be.
00:51:43I simply watched the cracks spread like a curse.
00:51:45We were ready.
00:51:47The moment of reckoning was finally here.
00:51:50Yes, break free, my princes.
00:51:52Rule this world with your father.
00:51:54Thin lines of light seeped through like something forcing its way out.
00:51:57This wasn't a birth.
00:51:59It was an extraction.
00:52:00Roar.
00:52:01Zarek, what is it?
00:52:02Why are you so angry?
00:52:03They are your sons.
00:52:05He isn't angry, Cecilia.
00:52:06He's hungry and he's focused.
00:52:08What did you say?
00:52:09You're lying.
00:52:10You're just jealous of my glory.
00:52:13A small, wet hatchling tumbled out, struggling to breathe.
00:52:16Its body was covered in dark scales, a shadow of its father.
00:52:23My son, look at him, Alara.
00:52:25He is a king.
00:52:28Zarek, what are you doing?
00:52:29Be gentle with him.
00:52:31She still thought this was a beginning.
00:52:32She was wrong.
00:52:33The air didn't smell like life anymore.
00:52:36It smelled like a slaughterhouse.
00:52:37The clock is ticking, Cecilia, but not for your coronation.
00:52:40The blood dead of two lifetimes was about to be collected.
00:52:44She was the first one on his list.
00:52:45I stood in the shadows, watching the end begin.
00:52:48The air was thick with the scent of impending death.
00:52:55The first shell cracked.
00:52:57Cecilia thought it was the start of her glory.
00:52:59She was wrong.
00:53:00Finally, my glory is born.
00:53:02Look at the light, Zarek.
00:53:04A male, devoid of any trace of emotion.
00:53:06That's fine.
00:53:07A son is strong, just like you, Zarek.
00:53:09He will be a king.
00:53:10Another male.
00:53:11Another disappointment, hidden behind Zarek's frozen mask.
00:53:14Look, two sons.
00:53:16Our lineage will be unstoppable in the human lands.
00:53:21She couldn't hear the warning in his silence.
00:53:24She only saw her own greed.
00:53:26The final hope.
00:53:27Or the final nail in her coffin.
00:53:29The air grew heavy.
00:53:33Three warriors.
00:53:34Zarek, I have given you an army.
00:53:36We will return.
00:53:37They will all kneel before us.
00:53:39No one can stop the black dragon's blood.
00:53:41But Zarek didn't want warriors.
00:53:43He wanted a sacrifice for the dragon god.
00:53:45I knew what would happen next.
00:53:46I had seen this nightmare once before.
00:53:51Claim them, my lord.
00:53:52Show them their father's power and love.
00:53:54He moved.
00:53:55Not with love, but with cold, calculated cruelty.
00:53:57Zarek, what are you doing?
00:53:59Why are you raising your hand?
00:54:02No, my son, why?
00:54:04Why are you doing this?
00:54:05Useless trash.
00:54:06I have no need for more rivals in my kingdom.
00:54:08To a monster, even his own blood is just fuel for the fire.
00:54:12This wasn't the future you promised.
00:54:13You said we would be kings.
00:54:15The dragon god demands a daughter.
00:54:17You gave me nothing but garbage.
00:54:19The bargain failed, and Cecilia's dream is now a bloody grave.
00:54:22It's time, Ira.
00:54:24The gap in his power is finally open.
00:54:26Yes, let the darkness consume itself.
00:54:28We strike now.
00:54:29It wasn't supposed to be like this.
00:54:31Please, no.
00:54:32Goodbye, sister.
00:54:33You chose the dragon.
00:54:34Now die with him.
00:54:35Our miracle is waiting in the stone lands.
00:54:38Don't look back.
00:54:39I will not be a sacrifice.
00:54:40I will be the end of this curse.
00:54:42Two lives, one chance to burn it all down and start again.
00:54:45Burn.
00:54:45Let everything that was rotten turn to ash.
00:54:48I stood in the shadows, a silent witness to the end of a nightmare I once called my life.
00:54:52Every drop of blood spilled today was a debt being repaid by the universe.
00:54:57I didn't come for revenge.
00:54:58I came to watch them destroy themselves.
00:55:03For a heartbeat, Cecilia didn't react.
00:55:05Then, the silence was shattered.
00:55:08Zarek, what are you doing?
00:55:13Each strike was precise, efficient, and final.
00:55:16Their lives were extinguished in an instant.
00:55:19Flames rose from his claws, devouring them completely.
00:55:22Not even ash remained.
00:55:23No, stop it.
00:55:24Zarek, stop.
00:55:30Zarek, have you lost your mind?
00:55:32Those were our children.
00:55:33Our flesh and blood.
00:55:36Children?
00:55:37You call those failures children?
00:55:38What I needed was a female hatchling, and you gave me males.
00:55:42But they were strong.
00:55:43They were dragons.
00:55:44The dragon clans have no shortage of males.
00:55:46What use are they to me?
00:55:47They cannot carry the bloodline sacrifice.
00:55:49They are trash.
00:55:50If you cannot give me what I need, then what use are you?
00:55:52What, what are you saying?
00:55:54I'm saying you're worthless.
00:55:56As my tribute bride, your only purpose was to give me a female heir.
00:55:59And you failed utterly and miserably.
00:56:03The dream she built on my suffering was finally crumbling into dust.
00:56:07And Zarek, in his arrogance, was exposing his only weakness.
00:56:10Just, kill me then.
00:56:12Killing you is too easy.
00:56:13You will witness your own worthlessness.
00:56:15This is it.
00:56:16The moment I've been waiting for.
00:56:17While he is blinded by his own rage, I will strike.
00:56:20The end of the black dragon begins now.
00:56:22I stood in the shadows, watching the end of her reign.
00:56:25The blood on the floor was the price of her ambition.
00:56:28Cecilia was no longer the proud lady I once knew.
00:56:31Zarek looked down at her, his eyes filled with nothing but disgust.
00:56:35So you might as well join them.
00:56:36Only then did she understand.
00:56:38This was the end.
00:56:39No.
00:56:39No, please, Zarek.
00:56:41I can still give birth.
00:56:42Next time, it will be a female.
00:56:44I swear.
00:56:45Next time?
00:56:45You produce three males in your first clutch.
00:56:48Zara, help me, please.
00:56:49We're sisters.
00:56:50You have to help me.
00:56:51Sisters?
00:56:52When you switched the lots, did you remember we were sisters?
00:56:56You pushed me towards Silas just to save yourself.
00:56:58Did being sisters matter to you then?
00:57:00When you mocked me for being taken by Corbin.
00:57:03When you called me worthless, did you remember we were sisters?
00:57:06And now that you're about to die, you suddenly remember that we share the same blood?
00:57:10Her lips trembled, but no words came out.
00:57:12It's too late.
00:57:13Something inside her broke completely.
00:57:15Lara, you bitch.
00:57:16I'll kill you.
00:57:17I'll come back again.
00:57:18And when I do, I'll kill you before anything else happens.
00:57:21I stepped back without answering her.
00:57:23Zarek had no patience left for her madness.
00:57:26The past was finally burning to ashes.
00:57:28She had chosen her path long ago.
00:57:29I didn't need to see the end to know it was over.
00:57:32The gold she craved would be her only witness.
00:57:34My journey continues, but hers ends here.
00:57:37Justice is a cold blade, and it has finally struck.
00:57:40Goodbye, Cecilia.
00:57:41In this life, and the next.
00:57:43In my previous life, she envied me and killed me.
00:57:46In this life, she thought she could take everything for herself.
00:57:50You really think you will get another chance?
00:57:52What do you mean?
00:57:53Answer me, Alara.
00:57:54There is nothing left to explain.
00:57:56Zarek didn't care about her, please.
00:57:58To him, she was just a failed tool.
00:58:00The bloodline backlash had made him a monster without mercy.
00:58:03No, Zarek, please.
00:58:05I can still give you...
00:58:06He glanced at me once, saying nothing.
00:58:08Then, the judgment fell.
00:58:10No.
00:58:11A scream tore through the cavern.
00:58:13Then silence.
00:58:15Then there was only silence.
00:58:16Don't look, Alara.
00:58:18I didn't resist.
00:58:19For the first time, I felt safe.
00:58:21Corbin, I am not afraid.
00:58:22It's over now.
00:58:23I am happy.
00:58:24Truly happy.
00:58:25I know.
00:58:26I needed to see the end of my nightmare with my own eyes.
00:58:28She fell harder than she ever imagined.
00:58:30It was nothing more than the ending she had chosen for herself.
00:58:34Cecilia was dead.
00:58:35This time, it's final.
00:58:36Alara, why are you looking at me like that?
00:58:38Nothing.
00:58:39Just thinking how lucky I am.
00:58:41But the danger wasn't gone.
00:58:43Zarek was becoming more unstable.
00:58:45We cannot stay here.
00:58:46Zarek has lost his mind.
00:58:47He just lost his wife.
00:58:48I won't let him set his eyes on mine.
00:58:51Your wife?
00:58:52We are going back to the stone dragon territory.
00:58:55Now.
00:58:55He wanted to take me home.
00:58:57Away from this death trap.
00:58:58No more rebirth.
00:58:59No more second chances for her.
00:59:01While I am still alive and finally free.
00:59:03The stone clan will protect you.
00:59:05I will protect you.
00:59:06I believe you Corbin.
00:59:07A new chapter was beginning.
00:59:09Toward a future that Cecilia could never steal from me.
00:59:12The real miracle is just beginning.
00:59:14Leaving the black dragon's lair felt like waking from a long bloody nightmare.
00:59:18Revenge was done.
00:59:19Cecilia was gone and for the first time I could breathe.
00:59:23Corbin was right there my silent guardian ready to start a new life with me.
00:59:26We're almost at the border Corbin.
00:59:28We're finally free.
00:59:30Yes.
00:59:30Elara.
00:59:31We are.
00:59:39Corbin.
00:59:39What's happening?
00:59:40Corbin.
00:59:41Is it your stomach?
00:59:42Are you poisoned?
00:59:43Speak to me.
00:59:44I'm.
00:59:44I'm alright.
00:59:46Elara.
00:59:47Don't worry.
00:59:48You're vomiting like this.
00:59:49We need to find a healer immediately.
00:59:51It's not poison.
00:59:52I'm just.
00:59:53Pregnant.
00:59:54What did you just say?
00:59:55You're.
00:59:56What?
00:59:56I am carrying our children.
00:59:58Elara.
00:59:59But you're male.
01:00:00This is impossible.
01:00:01I must be dreaming.
01:00:03I truly thought I had heard him wrong.
01:00:04A male dragon?
01:00:06Pregnant?
01:00:07Sit down, Elara.
01:00:08Let me explain everything to you.
01:00:09In the dragon world, males are capable of carrying dragon eggs themselves.
01:00:13But it requires an enormous amount of strength and life energy.
01:00:17That's why almost no dragon is willing to take on that burden.
01:00:20They prefer human women to suffer for them, don't they?
01:00:23Yes.
01:00:24They use you, then they handle the incubation afterward.
01:00:27Elara.
01:00:27I've been waiting for the right time to tell you this.
01:00:30I couldn't bear to let you suffer through pregnancy again.
01:00:33You did this because of my fear?
01:00:35I know you're afraid of dragon eggs.
01:00:37So I decided I would do it.
01:00:39He took the hell that belonged to me and carried it himself.
01:00:42Whether they are male or female, they will be our children.
01:00:45And I will love them all the same.
01:00:47Elara.
01:00:47Thank you, Corbin.
01:00:48For everything.
01:00:49So when the time comes, you'll have to take very good care of me.
01:00:52I promise I will be by your side every single second.
01:00:55I thought I was saved by a dragon, but I was saved by love.
01:00:59Finally, we are home.
01:01:00Rest now, Corbin.
01:01:02In this life, I don't have to be a sacrifice anymore.
01:01:05I have a protector, a partner, and a future.
01:01:07This is our story.
01:01:09A story of dragon sacrifice and a new hope.
01:01:11We finally returned to the Stone Dragon Clan's territory, a place that felt like a true sanctuary.
01:01:17Corbin, I promise I will take good care of you.
01:01:20I trust you, Ella.
01:01:21More than anyone else.
01:01:23I meant every word.
01:01:24I won't let anything hurt you again.
01:01:26Being with you is all the protection I need.
01:01:28At that moment, I felt a heavy responsibility, but also a strange sense of peace.
01:01:33The journey was long, but home was finally within reach.
01:01:36Corbin introduced me to his people.
01:01:38I was prepared for judgment, but I found none.
01:01:40This is Ella.
01:01:41She is the one I have chosen to protect with my life.
01:01:44None of them looked at me with contempt.
01:01:46They only saw Corbin's choice as something worthy of respect.
01:01:50Welcome home, child.
01:01:51We honor the sacrifice our leader has made for you.
01:01:55Thank you, Elder.
01:01:56I will do my best to support him.
01:01:58It was so different here.
01:01:59They treated his pregnancy not as a weakness, but as a rare and difficult strength.
01:02:04See?
01:02:04You are one of us now.
01:02:06In human form, his pregnancy was almost impossible to notice.
01:02:09But I knew the truth.
01:02:10Drink this, Corbin.
01:02:11It will help you regain your strength.
01:02:13You've been working too hard for me, Ella.
01:02:16You should rest too.
01:02:17I can't rest while you're carrying this burden alone.
01:02:19Let me do this.
01:02:21Only when he shifted into his true form could I faintly see the change.
01:02:24His belly had become slightly rounder.
01:02:26It was a miracle and a weight all at once.
01:02:29Does it hurt today?
01:02:30He always tried to calm me down, even when he was the one in pain.
01:02:34I wanted everything to be perfect for him, every blanket, every pillow.
01:02:38As the day of his delivery drew closer, I became more and more nervous.
01:02:42Ella, Reef, we are safe here.
01:02:45Everything will be fine.
01:02:47How can you be so calm?
01:02:48You're the one going through this.
01:02:50Because I've waited a long time for this moment.
01:02:52For us?
01:02:53A thought I had buried for a long time suddenly rose again.
01:02:56Corbin, the more I think about it, the stranger it feels.
01:02:59You knew me long before the offering ceremony, didn't you?
01:03:02In my previous life, Corbin had never appeared at the ceremony.
01:03:05I was left to a fate of darkness and pain.
01:03:08No one came to save me.
01:03:09But this time, everything changed.
01:03:11You descended from the sky.
01:03:13You took me away in front of everyone.
01:03:15You gave me hope when I had none.
01:03:17Some things are meant to be different this time.
01:03:19Ella.
01:03:20Why?
01:03:20Why did you come for me this time?
01:03:22What do you know that I don't?
01:03:23I have always known you, Ella.
01:03:26In every life.
01:03:27In every dream.
01:03:29In every life?
01:03:30What does that mean?
01:03:30It means that this time, I won't let the tragedy repeat itself.
01:03:35The mystery of our connection was deepening.
01:03:37But for the first time, I wasn't afraid of the truth.
01:03:40The silence in the cave was heavy, broken only by the crackling of the flames and Corbin's
01:03:45labored breathing.
01:03:46He had been watching me for a long time, his dark gold eyes filled with a question I couldn't
01:03:51yet understand.
01:03:52Finally, he spoke, his voice so soft it was barely a whisper.
01:03:55Ilara, if I hadn't appeared and taken you away from that altar, what would you have done?
01:04:01I didn't need to think.
01:04:02The memory of that despair was still etched into my soul.
01:04:05I would have jumped from the cliff.
01:04:07Then you did trust me, didn't you?
01:04:09Even when you didn't know why.
01:04:11His warmth flowed into me and suddenly his pupils flashed with a faint golden light.
01:04:15Through his gaze, a door in my mind swung open, revealing a memory I had long forgotten.
01:04:21It started with a fall, a mistake made by a curious child.
01:04:24I was falling into the abyss, certain that my life was over before it had truly begun.
01:04:28But the impact never came.
01:04:31Instead, I felt the strength of ancient stone.
01:04:33It was him.
01:04:34Corbin in his true, magnificent form.
01:04:36He had saved me.
01:04:38He carried me back through the woods, his presence a silent shield against the shadows.
01:04:42Careful, little one.
01:04:44The forest is no place for a child alone.
01:04:47You're a dragon, a real dragon.
01:04:49And you are a very brave human.
01:04:51Go home now.
01:04:52I'll come back tomorrow.
01:04:53I'll bring you the best food from our village to thank you.
01:04:56I promised him.
01:04:57I swore I would return.
01:04:59But fate had other plans.
01:05:00That very night, the darkness claimed more than just the day.
01:05:03A high fever took hold of me.
01:05:05For three days and three nights, I hovered between life and death.
01:05:08Everyone thought I wouldn't make it.
01:05:10The village whispered of a curse.
01:05:12When the fever finally broke, the girl who woke up was not the same.
01:05:16I had forgotten everything.
01:05:17The fall, the cliff, and the dragon who had saved me.
01:05:20Why does my heart feel so heavy, like I've lost something important?
01:05:23The promise was broken.
01:05:25I never went back to the forest.
01:05:27I left him waiting in the shadows for years.
01:05:29I lived a life of ignorance, never knowing that a dragon was watching over me from afar.
01:05:34But he never forgot.
01:05:36He waited through the centuries, through the cycles of life and death.
01:05:40The realization hit me like a physical blow.
01:05:42My voice trembled as I spoke.
01:05:44So I was right.
01:05:46Cecilia and I were able to be reborn because of you.
01:05:48I couldn't let you fall again, Ilara.
01:05:51Not after I found you.
01:05:52You were the one who gave us another chance, wasn't it?
01:05:55You traded your own safety for my life.
01:05:58I only wanted you to be free.
01:05:59I didn't expect the price to be so high.
01:06:02He had appeared at the ceremony to save me from my fate.
01:06:05He hadn't wanted me to suffer again.
01:06:06He had manipulated time itself, a forbidden ritual to bring back the soul he had lost.
01:06:12But the ritual was imperfect.
01:06:14It brought back Cecilia too and with her a new set of thorns.
01:06:18He simply hadn't expected Cecilia to willingly steal the miserable life that had once belonged
01:06:22to me.
01:06:23Two lives, woven together by a single promise made by a child and kept by a dragon.
01:06:28He had given everything to rewrite my story.
01:06:31Now it was my turn to protect his.
01:06:33Rest now my dragon, I will be the shield you were for me.
01:06:36The truth was a blade to my heart.
01:06:38I made a wish to the dragon god.
01:06:40The prize was that.
01:06:41I would never be able to fly again.
01:06:43A dragon who could no longer fly.
01:06:45Was that still a dragon?
01:06:46For me, you gave up the sky?
01:06:48For you, the sky is nothing compared to a lifetime.
01:06:52All these years, you were waiting for me to remember.
01:06:54To fulfill the promise we made as children.
01:06:57Hey, Lara.
01:06:58Corbin, what's wrong?
01:06:59I think the hatchlings are coming.
01:07:02The moment of destiny had arrived.
01:07:04Corbin, what can I do?
01:07:05Tell me what to do.
01:07:06I had never seen a dragon lay eggs.
01:07:11I'm here.
01:07:12I'm not leaving you.
01:07:13Just stay with me.
01:07:14I will.
01:07:15I'll hold you through it all.
01:07:16Every low groan felt like a crack in my own soul.
01:07:19Breathe, Corbin.
01:07:20Just breathe.
01:07:23And then, the miracle happened.
01:07:25Three white eggs, plain yet divine.
01:07:28They're...
01:07:28They're beautiful.
01:07:29So different from the darkness Cecilia brought forth.
01:07:32Corbin, Corbin, look at me.
01:07:34Are they...
01:07:35Safe?
01:07:36Yes, they are perfect.
01:07:37You did it.
01:07:38Are you alright?
01:07:39Please tell me you're okay.
01:07:40I am tired.
01:07:42So tired.
01:07:43He gave up the sky to give us a home.
01:07:45Now it is my turn to be the shield.
01:07:47You will grow up in a world of love, not blood.
01:07:49I will protect this peace with everything I have.
01:07:52Our new chapter begins here.
01:07:54No more running.
01:07:55No more fear.
01:07:56I am Alara, the guardian of the stone dragon's legacy.
01:07:59The morning light felt heavy as I watched Corbin struggle for every breath.
01:08:03My heart ached for the sacrifice he made.
01:08:05Alara, don't look at me with such sadness.
01:08:08How can I not?
01:08:09You gave up the sky for me.
01:08:10I'm fine.
01:08:11It's only that I won't be able to take you flying through the sky anymore.
01:08:14Our eggs will also need the others to help incubate them.
01:08:17I am too weak now.
01:08:19It doesn't matter.
01:08:20Corbin, as long as you're alive and well, that's enough for me.
01:08:22We entrusted the three eggs to your siblings.
01:08:25They will be safe, I promise.
01:08:27Everything went smoothly during those quiet days of waiting.
01:08:30He suffered so much for our future.
01:08:32I will never let that sacrifice be in vain.
01:08:35Today is the day.
01:08:36The day our destiny finally changes.
01:08:39Stay back.
01:08:39Give them space to breathe.
01:08:41Will they be healthy?
01:08:42Will they survive?
01:08:42Corbin insisted on being here.
01:08:45He wanted to see his children enter the world.
01:08:47You made it, brother.
01:08:48Just in time.
01:08:49Then, the first shell cracked.
01:08:52A sound that echoed through my very soul.
01:08:54Female hatchling.
01:08:55Gods, it's a female dragon.
01:08:57Before we could catch our breath, when the third egg broke, it was still female.
01:09:02Three dragon eggs.
01:09:03Three female hatchlings.
01:09:05Another female.
01:09:06This is impossible.
01:09:07It was something the dragon clans had never dared to imagine.
01:09:10A miracle born from love.
01:09:13We did it, Ellara.
01:09:15We really did it.
01:09:16Yes, my love.
01:09:17Our children will grow up in a world of freedom.
01:09:19Just then, dark clouds gathered across the sky.
01:09:22A tremendous presence descended.
01:09:29Corbin, Ellara, you have brought hope and revelation to the dragon clans.
01:09:34True female hatchlings are born from the willingness of male dragons to carry them.
01:09:41Receive my blessing.
01:09:42Your sacrifice shall be rewarded.
01:09:45Corbin shall fly again, and Ellara shall share his life and fate.
01:09:49From this day forward, you shall live and die together.
01:09:54I watched in awe as his wings unfurled once more, stronger than ever before.
01:09:58Come with me, Ellara.
01:10:00Let's reclaim the sky.
01:10:02To the ends of the world, Corbin.
01:10:03I am yours.
01:10:04He swept me into his arms and rose into the sky, carrying me above everything.
01:10:09We were no longer bound by chains, but by the life we chose for ourselves.
01:10:13We are the heart of the stone dragon clan.
01:10:15We are hope.
01:10:16Our story is just beginning.
01:10:17Together forever.
