Short filmTranscript
00:00:21Poor child! The fire isn't out yet! Stop!
00:00:25Madam, if I'm too slow, the other starving people will snatch them. My mother and I need this to survive
00:00:32the bitter winter.
00:00:38Madam, I wove these napkins. I embroidered the holly patterns myself. The priest said holly represents endless hope and life.
00:00:45Do you know where I can sell these?
00:00:52I'll take them all. May the merciful God bless you.
00:01:03Those napkins are barely worth a few coppers. Why did you give her three silver goins?
00:01:08Her father drowned, and her mother caught a deadly consumption. An orphan girl, weaving with burned hands just to buy
00:01:15her mother medicine. We should help however we can.
00:01:38Ten silver coins, at most.
00:01:42So, I'm dying. Ten silver coins only buys me a month of medicine. Please, look at the work, it's flawless.
00:01:53Fine. I misjudged it. Thirty silver coins.
00:01:58That's enough. Enough time to settle my shereel.
00:02:05Today is Christmas. My mother sold grandmother's heirloom for me. Yet this is all I can afford to give her.
00:02:14You ditched royalty to run off with a peasant. And look at you now, pathetic.
00:02:27Father, I don't have much time left. Please have mercy and take shereel in.
00:02:33That brat is a stain. Leave her, come home, and I'll get you the best care. You're still royalty.
00:02:41If high birth compels me to cast aside my child, I choose to live as a commoner.
00:02:47Father, shereel is my life. I will never abandon her.
00:02:53You're my only child, the last of our royal blood. Your illness has already brought you to death. Are you
00:03:00willing to risk your life over some base-born bastard?
00:03:05Without shereel, the palace is nothing more than an ornate tomb. I would rather die than abandon my daughter.
00:03:12Then die in this icebox. I, Robert, never had you as a daughter.
00:03:20It's all my fault. I'm the one who made Mother suffer.
00:03:32Mum, it's Christmas today. I didn't save enough for a turkey, but I made pea soup.
00:03:38Good girl. Mum is so proud of you.
00:03:41Mum, this is my Christmas gift to you. Hope you will like it.
00:03:46It's beautiful. I love it.
00:03:48I'm sorry my weak body made you suffer in this cruel world.
00:03:52No, it's my fault I couldn't make you better.
00:03:57I heard licorice helps with coughing, so I added some to the soup. Hurry and try it.
00:04:03This pea soup is the best thing I've ever tasted. No delicacy can compare.
00:04:14This is my only precious belonging left. We'll each keep half.
00:04:21Mum will never abandon you.
00:04:25We will never be apart.
00:04:28Mother, my departure is the only way for you to live.
00:04:32You have to carry on, please.
00:04:51Your Majesty!
00:04:54Please save my mom!
00:04:59As long as you save my mother, I am willing to leave her forever.
00:05:04And never take the royal bloodline.
00:05:17This is Datria, one sip, and your past is gone forever.
00:05:22I'm sending you to a remote border town.
00:05:28Never set foot in the capital again.
00:05:32Hmm.
00:05:53Mum, you have to live on.
00:06:03Liana.
00:06:07Father.
00:06:08What are you doing here?
00:06:19My child!
00:06:21Shereel!
00:06:22Where are you?
00:06:31Mom, please forgive me for leaving like this.
00:06:34I wanted to stay with you forever.
00:06:37But I couldn't just watch you die.
00:06:40Grandfather promised me to save you.
00:06:42But only if I left.
00:06:44This dress is my final gift.
00:06:47Like the holly on it.
00:06:48I wish you endless life and hope.
00:06:51I will always love you.
00:07:00I will always love you.
00:07:04Shereel!
00:07:06Shereel!
00:07:10Shereel!
00:07:12Shereel, where are you?
00:07:18My child.
00:07:21Shereel.
00:07:22My child.
00:07:22Where are you?
00:07:25Take Princess Leina back to the palace and let the physicians treat her.
00:07:56I've rebuilt this nation and silenced the drums of war. Our land is thriving and secure. Yet, one void remains
00:08:03in my heart. I must find my lost daughter!
00:08:10I swear on the crown, whoever brings me one clue to my daughter's location. A duxtish with cities and lands
00:08:18is yours!
00:08:19A duxtish just for a clue! Whoever brings her home safely, you shall be named Hand of the King with
00:08:26absolute power, second only to me.
00:08:53Eric, I've perfected this holly design and the silk quality. Take it to the royal officer. If the Queen likes
00:08:59it, your family will become a royal supplier and you'll finally... get your barony.
00:09:05It's exquisite. Shiril, you're amazing. The Queen will definitely love it.
00:09:10I'm just an amnesiac orphan. If you hadn't taken me home, I probably would have died long ago. I'm just
00:09:16happy to help you.
00:09:17Don't worry. Once the Queen grants me the title of Baron, I'll marry you immediately and give you a truly
00:09:22warm home. By the way, according to our tradition, getting married requires a dowry of 100 silver coins. How much
00:09:29have you saved up so far?
00:09:31Already over 80 coins. Give me more time. I'll weave all night and sell piece sumps all day. I'll have
00:09:37the 100 soon.
00:09:39Shiril, you think I care about cold hard cash? I'm doing this for us. My parents are old fashioned. They
00:09:47only care about status.
00:09:48Give me the 80 coins. I'll use them to shut them up and prove your worth to-
00:09:52But-
00:09:53Shh. Once they agree, at the sacred moment I am named Baron.
00:10:00I will announce to the world that you are my future bride.
00:10:08Erik, I'll go get the coin purse for you right now and then set up my stall.
00:10:14Idiot. Once I am a Baron, we'll be from two different worlds. A factory girl trying to crawl into nobility?
00:10:20Keep dreaming.
00:10:40A factory girl trying to crawl into nobility.
00:10:41Any news from the States? Still no trace of Shereel?
00:10:45Forgive me, your majesty. Not yet. The purchasing has just arrived with premium silk tributes for your review.
00:10:59This firebreak.
00:11:19There's no mistake.
00:11:21This holly pattern, this unique stitching.
00:11:23Only my daughter could embroider this.
00:11:26Sarah!
00:11:27Where was this fabric sent from?
00:11:29Your Majesty.
00:11:30It's from Black Rock City.
00:11:32It was sent by a local merchant, Eric Gray.
00:11:39It's her.
00:11:41It must be her!
00:11:42Sarah, prepare a carriage immediately.
00:11:47Royal Guard!
00:11:48We're going to Black Rock City right now!
00:11:51At once, Your Majesty!
00:11:57Your Majesty, we will reach Black Rock City before the midday bell.
00:12:03The Greys own the workshop.
00:12:04They've long craved royal status.
00:12:07As for the holly silk, it was woven by Eric Gray's fiancée.
00:12:13What is her name?
00:12:14What is her name?
00:12:17Her name is...
00:12:21Shereel.
00:12:23It is her!
00:12:24Your Majesty, the kingdom is vast, and many girls share that name.
00:12:29To be certain, I'll send someone for her hair or nails for a bloodline deputation.
00:12:35You are right.
00:12:37Bloodline or not, such exquisite craftsmanship deserves recognition.
00:12:41Send my orders.
00:12:43Appoint Eric Gray as a royal merchant,
00:12:44and let the local church proceed with his knighting as a baron.
00:12:49Yes, Your Majesty.
00:12:51Shereel, could it be you?
00:12:53I really miss the pea soup you made for me.
00:12:58Your Majesty, are you hungry?
00:13:03Look at the side of the road.
00:13:24Madam, would you like some hot pea soup?
00:13:27I cooked it myself.
00:13:28The taste won't disappoint you.
00:13:30It's so cold outside.
00:13:32Why don't you go back and rest to keep warm?
00:13:36I'm about to marry my Mr. Right.
00:13:38I need to sell a few more bowls on my lunch break.
00:13:41Gotta save up for a decent dowry.
00:13:45Counting the time.
00:13:47My daughter should be right at that age.
00:13:50I'll take a bowl.
00:13:52May the gods bless your marriage, good child.
00:14:19This bracelet, why does it look so familiar?
00:14:40Madam, you gave me too much!
00:14:46So many silver coins.
00:14:48If I ever meet this generous lady again,
00:14:51I must return every single one to her.
00:14:54Shereek!
00:14:55Good news!
00:14:56The royal charter arrived.
00:14:58Master Eric was bestowed the title of baron.
00:15:02Really?
00:15:03Oh my god, that's amazing!
00:15:05The bishop already took Eric to the Grand Cathedral.
00:15:08The nightling's happening right now.
00:15:10His dream finally came true!
00:15:12He told me he'd announce our engagement at the ceremony.
00:15:20Hurry, let's go to the Grand Cathedral!
00:15:32I heard licorice helps with coughing,
00:15:34so I added some to the soup.
00:15:35Hurry and try it!
00:15:47Licorice!
00:15:48Your Majesty, why would there be licorice in pea soup?
00:15:50It's Shereel!
00:15:51That's my Shereel!
00:15:53There's no mistake.
00:15:54Only my daughter would add licorice to this soup.
00:15:57Turn around!
00:15:58Go back to that stall!
00:16:14Sheree!
00:16:15Sheree, where are you?
00:16:17My child!
00:16:20Your Majesty,
00:16:21please don't panic.
00:16:27That girl,
00:16:29she works at the workshop.
00:16:30The bells are ringing,
00:16:32she must have rushed to the cathedral
00:16:33for Eric's ceremony.
00:16:40Go!
00:16:41To the Grand Cathedral!
00:16:45This time, I will definitely find her!
00:16:52Oh my God, incredible!
00:16:54Heard the Queen have signed your baron order.
00:16:56Lord Eric, you're noble now.
00:16:58Don't forget us little guys.
00:16:59Honor comes from God and the Queen.
00:17:01I'll stay grounded, of course.
00:17:07My son was born with elegant taste, so chosen by Majesty.
00:17:11He was destined to enter high society.
00:17:14Exactly.
00:17:15Baron is just the beginning.
00:17:17With my son's talent,
00:17:18Vitnot,
00:17:19Count,
00:17:19it's only a matter of time!
00:17:27Your Majesty,
00:17:28that's Eric Gray in the center.
00:17:31Where's the girl who wove the holly silk?
00:17:33Where's my daughter?
00:17:37Today, everyone will know I am his fiance.
00:17:39I'm finally going to have a real home.
00:17:42Your Majesty, it's her.
00:17:43She's right there!
00:17:50Your Highness,
00:17:51wait for the shaman's divination results
00:17:53before we go to claim her.
00:18:07By the mandate of the Queen
00:18:09and the grace of the gods,
00:18:10we gather here
00:18:11to bestow the title of Baron.
00:18:13Eric Gray swears to shield the weak
00:18:15and pledge eternal fairity to the crown.
00:18:17From this day forward,
00:18:19you are a Baron of the Kingdom!
00:18:22Lordy Eric!
00:18:26Everyone,
00:18:28I owe this moment of supreme glory
00:18:30to the woman who has always stood by me in silence.
00:18:34She helped me win the Queen's favor.
00:18:37She is my soulmate.
00:18:38At this sacred moment,
00:18:40I wish to announce my future bride to everyone!
00:18:44It has to be Cheryl.
00:18:46She's the one who spent years on those fabrics.
00:18:48She even ran a soup stall to afford her dowry.
00:18:50That poor girl gave him everything.
00:18:52Marrying a woman like Shirk,
00:18:53that's a real blessing for the Grey family.
00:18:55I will spend my whole life loving her!

00:27:29Who is she?
00:27:30How does she dare attack the Baron?
00:27:32Does she have a death wish?
00:27:34Who is she?
00:27:36You almost killed me!
00:27:38Who are you?
00:27:41What? What do you want?
00:27:43What are you afraid of?
00:27:44We are nobles.
00:27:45Does she really dare kill us?
00:27:49Are you okay?
00:27:50Ma'am, it's you.
00:27:53Why are you here?
00:27:55I arrived too late and let you suffer.
00:28:00So you wanted to stand up for this commoner?
00:28:06Stay beside me and watch.
00:28:08I won't let any of them off.
00:28:10I came today to stand up for her.
00:28:12The rest of you deserve to die.
00:28:19Golden armor.
00:28:20Could they be the royal guard?
00:28:21Who exactly is this woman?
00:28:22Could she be the queen?
00:28:24Don't panic.
00:28:25The royal guard are the queen's personal soldiers.
00:28:27My father is Count Grove.
00:28:28If the queen came here, how could he not know?
00:28:30This woman is a fraud.
00:28:32Those aren't real royal guards.
00:28:33She hired actors to scare us with a cheap trick.
00:28:36Exactly.
00:28:37The queen must be in the capital.
00:28:38Why would she be here?
00:28:39You criminal!
00:28:41Importionating the queen!
00:28:42Go.
00:28:42Fetch my father, Count Grove.
00:28:44Tell him I've caught a fake queen.
00:28:45If my father deals with someone offending the queen,
00:28:48Her Majesty will surely reward him.
00:28:51Fine.
00:28:51I'd like to see how Count Grove handles me when he sees me.
00:29:09My lord, urgent news from the cathedral.
00:29:12A lunatic is leading privateers, faking the queen's identity to attack Lady Bella and the Baron.
00:29:21Preposterous!
00:29:22In the heart of Black Rock City, someone dares to mock the queen and bully my daughter?
00:29:29Guards!
00:29:30Move out!
00:29:31I'll hang this impostory myself.
00:29:35You're insane!
00:29:37Faking the queen's name is a death sentence!
00:29:41You think these golden costumes can save you?
00:29:44The queen remains in the capital.
00:29:46She wouldn't waste a second on a nobody like you!
00:29:50Despokable?
00:29:51That's you, Eric.
00:29:52You stole Shireel's work to buy this title.
00:29:55You climbed to the top on her blood and sweat and now you dare try to crush her?
00:29:59You've spit on every sacred promise.
00:30:02You're a pathetic excuse for a man.
00:30:04That's right.
00:30:05Shireel was so devoted to Eric.
00:30:07How could he break his vow?
00:30:08Shireel wove day and night for Eric and sold soup whenever she had time.
00:30:12We all saw her sacrifices.
00:30:17Shut up!
00:30:18The workshop is my property.
00:30:20She's just a lowly worker.
00:30:22Everything I have is what I deserve.
00:30:29Madam, thank you for standing up for me, but please, you must leave now.
00:30:34Count Grove is a monster and his men are merciless.
00:30:38Don't die for me.
00:30:39It's not worth your life.
00:30:41Don't be scared, dear.
00:30:43I won't let anyone touch you.
00:30:45Since the gods won't act, I'll punish these disgusting villains myself.
00:30:49They will pay for what they did to me.
00:30:51No one has ever protected me unconditionally.
00:30:55She's just like...
00:30:57She's just like a mother.
00:30:59Eric!
00:31:00This old fraud is insane!
00:31:02She's helping Shireel spread lies about our family!
00:31:05Kill them!
00:31:06Don't let either of these bitches escape!
00:31:13You're dead meat.
00:31:15The Count's guards will beat you both to death.
00:31:18I'll make sure your heads hang from the city walls until the crows pick them clean.
00:31:22Just wait and see!
00:31:31What big talk?
00:31:33You break vows, kill the weak, and treat lives like dirt.
00:31:37You've crossed the line of no return.
00:31:40Aren't you afraid of the Queen's fury?
00:31:42One word from the throne and you'll lose your title, your wealth, and your head.
00:31:49Ridiculous!
00:31:50You think you can travel a thousand miles just to beg the Queen for a judgment?
00:31:55You really believe she'd listen to a couple of noblies?
00:31:58That's the most pathetic thing I've ever heard.
00:32:00Submit a petition?
00:32:02This is the funniest joke I've ever heard!
00:32:05You?
00:32:05See, the Queen wouldn't get within a mile of the palace alive.
00:32:11Eric!
00:32:11The gods are watching from above!
00:32:13The kingdom's laws won't be blinded forever by despicable people like you!
00:32:18Laws?
00:32:18Here, my father is the only law that matters.
00:32:21You think a scrap of paper and some lies will save you?
00:32:24You're living in a dream world.
00:32:26You think you can leave today?
00:32:28Keep dreaming!
00:32:29You won't even take one step out of this cathedral's doors!
00:32:32Block the doors tight!
00:32:34Don't let a single fly out!
00:32:35I will watch these two peasants bleed their last drop right here!
00:32:51Enough, Lord Baron!
00:32:53You can't just flip the truth and use violence to get your way!
00:32:57Miss Shearal is a kind and innocent person.
00:33:01We are witnesses.
00:33:02Night after night she bled for that holly silk while you did nothing.
00:33:07You can't deny this truth!
00:33:09Stealing is a sin!
00:33:10You used her blood and sweat to climb the social clallor and now you want to kill her?
00:33:14You're no gentleman, you're a monster!
00:33:19Shut up, you filthy peasants!
00:33:21You reek of manure and livestock!
00:33:23How dare you jump out and lecture nobility!
00:33:33Are you crazy?
00:33:35They only spoke the truth and you dare strike them!
00:33:37Truth?
00:33:38Here?
00:33:39Here I am the truth.
00:33:40Opposing me is a crime punishable by death.
00:33:43You rats from the sewers were born to be trash under our feet.
00:33:46Now and forever, trampled underfoot, you parasites.
00:33:53You take everything from this kingdom and give back only cruelty.
00:33:56You trample the weak like dirt and spit on the laws of justice.
00:34:00Filthy heartless cowards, you don't deserve to be nobles.
00:34:03You deserve nothing!
00:34:05You mad woman!
00:34:07Death is upon you, yet you still dare spout such nonsense!
00:34:11Today, by the will of the heavens, I shall make you pay in blood for your arrogance and cruelty!
00:34:24You dare hit me!
00:34:32You dare hit me!
00:34:34You peasant, you dare hit me!
00:34:42You're dead!
00:34:43My father will rot you in the pits!
00:34:46He'll have you flayed alive until there's nothing left but screams!
00:34:50Where is my father?
00:34:53Someone find Count Grove now!
00:35:03Daring to offend the Grove family on my territory!
00:35:07The gallows will be your final resting place today!
00:35:11Full speed ahead!
00:35:13Fire!
00:35:22You lawless madwoman.
00:35:24Before the gods and nobles, you dare publicly harm a Count's daughter.
00:35:29Don't show them mercy, Eric!
00:35:31Butcher this witch!
00:35:32Toss their carcasses to the wolves and let them rot!
00:35:35How dare these peasants insult my title!
00:35:38Eric!
00:35:39Draw your sword!
00:35:41Teach these dogs the meaning of fear!
00:35:45That's right, Eric.
00:35:46Avenge me for this.
00:35:47And in the future, my father's power and connections are yours to command.
00:35:52I'll end you right here!
00:35:54Enough!
00:35:54Your blood will serve as a lesson to these rats!
00:35:57Offending a noble is a death sentence!
00:35:59Now perish!
00:36:10You want to kill me?
00:36:13In your dreams?
00:36:16You dare point weapons at me!
00:36:24Enough is enough.
00:36:26We give our blood and sweat to this land, yet you treat us like dirt!
00:36:30Listen to me, everyone.
00:36:31We aren't animals.
00:36:32We won't be trampled anymore!
00:36:35That's right!
00:36:36Strip this hypocrite of his title!
00:36:38Give Sheryl's hard work back to her!
00:36:47What are you peasants trying to do?
00:36:48Are you trying to overthrow the Order?
00:36:50You're reckless rioters!
00:36:51Wait until the Count's guards arrive.
00:36:52They'll send all you cheap bones to the gallows!
00:36:55A crown is a burden of responsibility, not a shield for your crimes.
00:37:00It exists to safeguard the weak and honour the truth.
00:37:04Those who use it to trample others deserve nothing but the gallows!
00:37:08Stand right!
00:37:09And you, enjoy the Crown's protection, only to turn your blades on its people.
00:37:14Listen to these roars!
00:37:16The people have spoken and the gods have judged!
00:37:19Eric Gray, you are no baron, you are a criminal!
00:37:22Fella, your soul is too rotten to ever be called noble.
00:37:26Shut up!
00:37:28Shut up, you madwoman!
00:37:30Shut up!
00:37:37Who dares to impersonate the Queen here and offend the Magi of the Groves?
00:37:42Get out here and face death!
00:37:53Who dares to impersonate the Queen here and offend the Majesty of the Groves?
00:37:57Get out here and face death!
00:38:05Father!
00:38:06You finally came!
00:38:08If you had been a moment later, your daughter would have been eaten alive by these lowly rioters!
00:38:14Who dares?
00:38:15Who dares harm the Grove family in my city?
00:38:21My lord, this crazy woman ruined everything.
00:38:23She even brought thugs to impersonate the Royal Guard.
00:38:26Look at them.
00:38:28What a pathetic joke.
00:38:33That's right!
00:38:34My lord, she dared to fake the Royal Majesty!
00:38:37This is the worst deceration of the Kingdom's laws!
00:38:40We must kill her!
00:38:41Send her to the gallows!
00:38:43Burn this heretic!
00:38:44She dares to desperate the gods!
00:38:46Burn her alive!
00:38:50Burn her alive!
00:38:50Count Grove!
00:38:51How dare she!
00:38:52I'll let my cavalry trample her until she's unrecognizable!
00:38:55I'll flay her alive!
00:38:56Inch by inch and let the whole city hear her finalizing cries!
00:38:59No one mocks the Grove name and lives!
00:39:01Where is that bold, lowly peasant leading the riot?
00:39:04Roll out and die!
00:39:08Father, it's that bitch right there!
00:39:14Ma'am, I will take all the blame shortly.
00:39:17You absolutely must not get involved.
00:39:20We don't know each other, yet you have done enough for me.
00:39:22I cannot put you in danger because of me.
00:39:24Good girl.
00:39:26How can you say we don't know each other?
00:39:29We are the closest family.
00:39:32What do you mean?
00:39:34You two peasants, turn around!
00:39:40Count Grove, what an impressive display of authority.
00:39:56This woman's error.
00:39:59It's overwhelming.
00:40:01Who exactly is she?
00:40:03You dare bully my daughter in my place!
00:40:06And you dare impersonate the Queen!
00:40:10Father, she's a fake!
00:40:12She's playing Queen to save that bitch!
00:40:15Arrest her!
00:40:17Make her cruel for what she's done!
00:40:23Grove, you certainly have a good daughter.
00:40:27Disregarding the Empire's laws to wantonly beat and kill my kingdom's subjects.
00:40:33That voice sounds so familiar, like I've heard it somewhere before.
00:40:40My father knows the Queen personally!
00:40:42Your little game is over!
00:40:45Father, speak up!
00:40:46Tell these fools!
00:40:47Is this madwoman really the Queen?
00:40:50When I had an audience with the Queen, there were layers of guards and soldiers.
00:40:54I didn't even dare lift my head.
00:40:56I only heard her voice.
00:40:59That proves it!
00:41:00She's a fake!
00:41:01The Queen's life is too precious!
00:41:03She would never travel without notifying the castles!
00:41:06She wouldn't be here with just a few thugs!
00:41:08Father, why are you waiting?
00:41:10Kill her!
00:41:11Exactly!
00:41:12You lowly commoners remain unrepentant!
00:41:15Guards!
00:41:16Arrest them!
00:41:18Arrest me!
00:41:19Let this lady go!
00:41:25Shereel, stand safely behind me.
00:41:28I will never let you suffer any wrongs, nor will I let these evil people succeed.

01:02:51and
01:02:51and
01:02:51and
01:02:51and
01:02:51and
01:02:53I apologize, your highness. You were frightened. I am Aris. When you didn't appear at the banquet, I grew concerned.
01:03:01I overstepped, but I heard sounds of a struggle from the hallway, so I broke the door down. Thank god
01:03:07you're safe.
01:03:09Thank you, Aris.
01:03:11An assassin! Protect her highness! Move!
01:03:24The assassin has fled. Her highness is in no condition to receive visitors. Stand down.
01:03:33Your highness. I wounded the assassin's right arm. He carries that scar. I'll give the guards this lead. We will
01:03:42catch him.
01:03:44I'm scared he'll come back.
01:03:46Starting tomorrow. The finest royal knights guard your door around the clock. No one without the password gets near this
01:03:54floor.
01:03:59Then will you be here too?
01:04:02As long as your highness needs me, I will be here.
01:04:09I-I mean, it's always better to have another skilled warrior nearby. I didn't mean anything else by it.
01:04:24Shereel!
01:04:25Thank god you're safe. Sarah told me a thug broke in. My heart nearly stopped.
01:04:31Mother. I'm fine. Duke Aris broke the door down just in time.
01:04:39That damned throg! Shereel! Did you see who it was?
01:04:46The room was too dark. He stayed in the shadows the whole time. I... couldn't see his face.
01:04:53But I pierced his arm. Even without a face, the wound will identify him.
01:05:01Lockdown! Seal every exit!
01:05:03The assassin has a sword wound on his right arm.
01:05:06Turn this palace upside down. Drag him out!
01:05:09Dare to touch my daughter, and I will make sure he dies screaming!
01:05:16Duke Aris, you saved my daughter's life.
01:05:20I shudder to think what would have happened without you.
01:05:24Protecting her highness is my duty. No thanks required.
01:05:29No, Lord Duke. I want to thank you properly.
01:05:32If you hadn't come, I would have been trapped, Shadow, for the rest of my life.
01:05:38I will never let you live in darkness.
01:05:41It seems guards alone aren't enough.
01:05:44Shereel, even as a princess in this complex palace, you need to know how to protect yourself.
01:05:53Since Duke Aris is so skilled, perhaps he should personally teach you defensive sword manstripping.
01:06:01I was so close.
01:06:03If that man hadn't burst in...
01:06:10Shereel, next time I get my hands on you, you will beg for mercy.
01:06:13And everything that's mine, I'll take it all back.
01:06:16Did you hear?
01:06:17An assassin broke in.
01:06:18The Queen has sealed all exits, not a fly escapes.
01:06:22Duke Aris himself said the assassin has a right arm wound.
01:06:24The Royal Guard is checking everyone now.
01:06:26Anyone found with an injured arm is killed on the spot.
01:06:28They'll be here any minute.
01:06:39Royal Guard investigation.
01:06:41All men on the roster.
01:06:42Line up now.
01:06:43Expose your arms.
01:06:44Anyone who resists is treated as an accomplice.
01:06:46Executed on the spot.
01:06:53Why is there a man missing?
01:06:54Sir, it's Eric.
01:06:56He said his stomach hurt and went to the latrine.
01:06:59Behind the stables.
01:07:22I swear it was the most absurd scene I've ever witnessed in my life.
01:07:26The guy literally face-planted into a barrel full of mucer.
01:07:31And the best part, when the captain went to check his other arm,
01:07:34the idiot was flailing around like a headless chicken,
01:07:37panicked by the captain, and fell right into his arms.
01:07:39Got kicked away like a sack of potatoes.
01:07:42Looking at the captain's face afterward,
01:07:44I think he wanted to burn his whole uniform.
01:07:47Let's move.
01:07:49More places to search.
01:08:04Hold it tight, your highness.
01:08:10The sword is an extension of your arm.
01:08:14Feel its center of gravity,
01:08:15instead of trying to drag it with brute force.
01:08:17He...
01:08:19Why is he standing so close?
01:08:21That heat...
01:08:23Why is my heart beating as loud as war drums?
01:08:26Stop beating, Shereel.
01:08:27He'll hear you.
01:08:34Focus on the battlefield.
01:08:36An enemy's blade doesn't stop because your mind wandered.
01:08:41I understand, Duke Eris.
01:08:45Please continue.
01:09:00Now, let your instincts guide it.
01:09:21Don't rush, your highness.
01:09:24Take everything step by step.
01:09:27I'm sorry.
01:09:28I'm so clumsy at this.
01:09:32You're doing incredibly well.
01:09:35Since swordmanship doesn't come naturally,
01:09:37let's shift to basic combat.
01:09:40How to protect yourself.
01:09:41Using your center of gravity.
01:09:44No weapon needed.
01:09:47I'm sorry.
01:09:48Oh, my God.
01:10:20My Lord!
01:10:27Report to the Duke. Every person in the palace has been inspected. No assassin with a wounded right arm found.
01:10:35New command. Search every corner. No unidentified person hides inside these walls. Yes, my Lord.
01:10:42Duke Eris. Is he really still here? I keep feeling eyes on me.
01:10:48Cold eyes. Watching from somewhere dark.
01:10:53Your Highness, I will find him. And I will personally end him.
01:10:58I trust you, Eris.
01:11:00Then let's keep training. Total strength. Unshakeable confidence. That's how you survive.
01:11:15If I wasn't being hunted by those dogs, why would I end up rolling in that disgusting manure barrel?
01:11:23This stench. It won't come off.
01:11:26Shereel. In that damned night. I will make you both pay for my humiliation.
01:11:42Your Highness, why did you summon me at this hour?
01:11:46Instead of letting this assassin lurk like a snake in the dark, wait to strike whenever he chooses,
01:11:52we should dig his grave ourselves and lure him in.
01:11:56Your Highness, what are you proposing?
01:12:03I want to take the initiative.
01:12:05What exactly?
01:12:06Spread the word that the assassin was caught.
01:12:08Then two nights from now I'll go to the prayer room alone to pray.
01:12:11No guards. Only two personal maids.
01:12:13So he doesn't get suspicious. No ambush troops.
01:12:16Only you. Hidden in the dark.
01:12:18Absolutely not. That is gambling with your life.
01:12:21Eris.
01:12:23Living in endless fear is no life at all.
01:12:26Better to let him walk right into the trap we set for him.
01:12:33One thing goes wrong, you could be in real danger.
01:12:36I've learned a lot from you these past few days.
01:12:39Nothing will happen.
01:12:41Trust me.
01:12:46All right.
01:12:49I'm listening to you.
01:12:58Did you hear?
01:12:59They actually caught the assassin.
01:13:04I heard that too.
01:13:05To thank the gods, the princess is going to the prayer room tomorrow night.
01:13:08She's not even taking guards.
01:13:10Just one maid.
01:13:10She said she doesn't want to disturb the gods.
01:13:13Praying alone, my chance has come.
01:13:24That man we found, the sword wound on his arm, it's from a blade, right?
01:13:28Who cares what kind of wound it is?
01:13:30He passed out on a deserted road.
01:13:31If we hadn't found him, he'd be dead when he were getting paid for this.
01:13:34Where is he?
01:13:35At the physician's.
01:13:37I will catch him and hand him to me myself.
01:13:39Why is the Duke in such a hurry?
01:13:41Probably concerned about one of his men.
01:13:43I heard that the injured man is part of the Royal Guard.
01:13:50Who are you?
01:13:51I've never seen you before.
01:13:52I was just transferred from the Outer Court by Her Majesty.
01:13:55She was worried the prayer room was too cold.
01:13:57She ordered me to bring this tribute incense, so Her Highness stays alert before the gods.
01:14:03Since Her Majesty requested it, go in.
01:14:15Mary, didn't I say not to disturb me while I'm confessing?
01:14:18Your Highness, Her Majesty is concerned about your health.
01:14:21This incense will help you draw closer to the gods.
01:14:26Incense?
01:14:26Just leave it there.
01:14:33Long time no see, my princess.
01:14:36I've missed you.
01:14:37It is him.
01:14:47Looks like my knockout powder worked.
01:14:50The maid has already fallen asleep.
01:14:54What happened?
01:14:56Why didn't Aerys come in?
01:15:05Where is the man with the sword wound on his arm?
01:15:13Is he from the guard?
01:15:15Yes, he got that sword wound over ten days ago.
01:15:19You told him to wrestle, but he collapsed on the road and was brought here.
01:15:23Oh no.
01:15:28Struggle, my princess.
01:15:30Here, in this holy prayer room, I will personally crush your arrogant pride.
01:15:43Did you think you can fight back against me?
01:15:53Let me see who you really are.
01:16:03It's you.
01:16:05Eric.
01:16:07Shiryant.
01:16:08You were supposed to wail beneath my body and become my gold ticket.
01:16:12Shut up!
01:16:13Give him thirty lashes, throw him in the dungeon, and report to Her Majesty that the assassin has been caught.
01:16:20Forgive me, Your Grace.
01:16:21I let a decoy distract me and left you defenseless against that maniac.
01:16:26If you had been hurt, my life wouldn't have been enough to pay for my failure.
01:16:29I've failed you.
01:16:31Aerys, look at me.
01:16:33It was your technique.
01:16:35Your strength is in me.
01:16:37You gave me the power to fight.
01:16:39But I should protect you, not made you do it yourself.
01:16:42I cannot forgive myself.
01:16:45If that's the case, then I will give you a punishment.
01:16:52If that's the case, then I will give you a punishment.
01:16:56Guard my side every moment for the rest of your life.
01:16:59Never look away.
01:17:01Be my sole protector for a lifetime.
01:17:05Your Highness.
01:17:07Do you mean it to me?
01:17:09This isn't a punishment, but a reward.
01:17:11Will you accept it, my Duke Heiress?
01:17:13I swear to protect you for eternity.
01:17:28By royal decree, Eric Gray, a mere commoner, has attempted to assassinate the princess.
01:17:36Eric Gray is hereby stripped of all civil rights.
01:17:44In three days, he shall hang by the neck until dead.
01:17:50Now is not the time to cry.
01:17:52We have one last option.
01:17:56What else can we do?
01:17:58We can't even touch the palace walls now.
01:18:02Since we stay here waiting for death, we might as well risk it all.
01:18:05What do you mean?
01:18:07An unwed princess, caught in a commoner's room.
01:18:12The rumors alone would ruin you forever.
01:18:15Yes!
01:18:15We can use her reputation against her, and force her to spare our son!
01:18:20The royal family values reputation above all else.
01:18:23Maybe the Queen will even marry Cheryl to Eric.
01:18:25Then our good times will be back!
01:18:27Let's do it.
01:18:28We only have a few years left in this broken shed anyway.
01:18:30We either save our son and live a good life, or we drag that little bitch to hell with us.
01:18:42God bless you, kind princess.
01:18:44I've never seen royalty this approachable.
01:18:46Not a trace of noble arrogance in her eyes.
01:18:51Cheryl isn't arrogant, because not long ago, she was just a grubby weaver dealing in coarse linen all day!
01:18:58You folks probably don't know this, but this noble princess used to live with our family.
01:19:03No name of her own back then.
01:19:04And her only ambition was to cling to my son, Eric.
01:19:07Poor thing!
01:19:08To keep her claws in Eric, she would use bringing dinner as an excuse to sneak into a man's bedroom
01:19:13late at night.
01:19:15She'd stay for hours.
01:19:16And the noises behind that door...
01:19:19Holy mother, it was unbearable!
01:19:21Could it be her highness has already been with a man?
01:19:24If she really fooled about with a commoner man in his bedroom night,
01:19:28that is the greatest stain on the royal family's reputation.
01:19:43It's been so long. You must be doing well.
01:19:45Make the queen stop the execution. Now!
01:19:48And announce you'll marry him.
01:19:49Or I'll leak every filthy tale of your intimate nights.
01:19:52The crown won't hesitate to disown a disgraced heir.
01:19:55Shut your mouth, you liar.
01:19:57My relationship with Eric was clean. We never crossed a single line.
01:20:01Go ahead. Try to smear my name with your trash. See who survives.
01:20:05Back in the Black Rock City workshop, who was sneaking into my son's room on cold nights?
01:20:10Who spent those secret afternoons glued to my poor Eric?
01:20:14Why won't you just admit it?
01:20:16Does that mean the princess did forbidden things with a man?
01:20:19What a disgrace to the royal name.
01:20:21That never happened. You are lying.
01:20:24The Lares is here.
01:20:29Lord Duke, perfect timing.
01:20:31She and my son were lovers doing shameful things in that humble bedroom.
01:20:36Do not marry her.
01:20:46No, no, that's not true.
01:20:49It absolutely is.
01:20:51Shereel and Eric's affair is known to all of Black Rock City.
01:20:55She has been my son's woman for years.
01:20:58You cannot marry her.
01:20:59Lord Duke is valiant and noble.
01:21:02He shouldn't marry a woman like that.
01:21:06No. Is he going to doubt me too?
01:21:12Enough! Put away your sickening, clumsy acting.
01:21:16Iris, do you trust me?
01:21:20Of course I trust you.
01:21:21You are my fiancé, my future wife, the mother of my future children, the person I want to spend my
01:21:27life with.
01:21:27I would even entrust my life to you.
01:21:29How could I not trust you?
01:21:33Her Highness would never do such a thing.
01:21:35I stake my name on it.
