Short filmTranscript
00:00So you're Queen Victoria.
00:01I thought he was a mute.
00:02He can talk.
00:04How is he speaking?
00:05He was never mute.
00:06This is impossible!
00:10Insolence!
00:10This is Her Majesty!
00:12On your knees!
00:19Stand down.
00:20Your Majesty, please forgive Aldrich's ear.
00:22Your Majesty, that outcast is not a member of House Malvern.
00:25Reject!
00:26Children often speak without thinking.
00:28It's fine.
00:29Rise.
00:30Your Majesty!
00:31I heard several High Mages came for a ten-year-old boy.
00:34Naturally, I wanted to see him myself.
00:36Indeed, Your Majesty, I am here solely for Aldrich.
00:38Oh.
00:39What makes this child so exceptional?
00:41Aldrich knows more magic than most seasoned maces.
00:48He's a prodigy.
00:50A ten-year-old prodigy?
00:52Emery, you've finally gone crazy.
00:54He's only ten.
00:55He's not even an apprentice.
00:56Go run back to your mummy.
00:57Oh, that's right.
00:59His mummy's gone.
01:01You asked for this.
01:08Enough!
01:09Forget his age.
01:11He's the strongest mage alive.
01:16The strongest mage?
01:18Seriously?
01:26Gavin, is Emery telling the truth about your exceptionally powerful grandson?
01:30Your Majesty, I...
01:31Your Majesty, my cousin is all show.
01:34Emery must have fallen for some cheap trick.
01:36You know nothing!
01:37If you had a tenth of his power, Alan Mulrond would already be the greatest in Theros.
01:41A tenth?
01:42Has she gone completely mad?
01:44Absurd.
01:45How can a spellless freak compare to my son?
01:47He's a real prodigy.
01:50Words are cheap, boy.
01:52If Emery thinks so highly of you, represent House Malvern in tomorrow's royal trial and prove yourselves.
01:58House Malvern doesn't deserve me.
01:59No!
02:01I don't accept this!
02:02He's a useless mute!
02:03I'm the future of House Malvern!
02:05I've trained for years!
02:07How can he take my place?
02:08Silence, Kaelin!
02:10No!
02:10I was meant to be the one!
02:26A high mage has spoken!
02:28Your power isn't even a tenth of his!
02:30Grandpa...
02:31You will understand after tonight.
02:37Everyone, let us proceed to the banquet.
02:45Please, be seated.
02:47Your majesty!
02:55I saw the mark you left in the courtyard.
02:58Child, your manner is unlike anything ordinary.
03:06House Malvern has wronged you and your mother.
03:09We need you, Aldrich.
03:10House Malvern's been looked down on for years.
03:13Help us prove them wrong tomorrow.
03:15I'm not a Malvern.
03:17Why should I fight for strangers?
03:22Blood is law.
03:23You are Aldrich Malvern.
03:25Your name is your legacy.
03:28From now on, there is no Aldrich Malvern.
03:31Call me Mar-Logas.
03:37Sir, the registration scroll for tomorrow's trial.
03:40Please sign here.
03:54Grandpa is begging you.
03:56One condition.
03:57Name it.
03:58I shall grant whatever you say.
04:00After my mother and I were cast out, we suffered more than you could ever know.
04:04I survived, yet my mother was swallowed by disease and died.
04:09I'm not here to rejoin this family.
04:11I'm here to get justice for my mother.
04:13If I win tomorrow, you'll all kneel at my mother's grave and admit you were wrong about us.
04:21You bastard!
04:23How dare you say that!
04:27You bastard!
04:28How dare you say that!
04:31Who do you think you are?
04:33Who do you think you are?
04:33You think you can defeat everyone in the trial?
04:37Silence!
04:44Fine.
04:45Win tomorrow, and I'll take everyone to your mother's grave.
04:48She'll admit we were wrong about you.
04:59I never belonged in this time, but from my first breath, you were my only mother.
05:05Tomorrow, I'll beat them all.
05:06Then, I'll make them kneel at your grave and regret it forever.
05:13Who is that?
05:14What an entrant!
05:14Careful!
05:15That's Prince William, the Queen's only child.
05:16A High Magee of Twelve.
05:17I hear he's signing up for the trial.
05:27So, you are Aldrich.
05:31So, you are Aldrich.
05:36Insolence!
05:37He dares ignore the Prince!
05:38Apologies, Your Highness.
05:39Yes.
05:40This is Aldrich.
05:43Come forward, William.
05:46Mother.
05:47Rise, William.
05:48Weren't you supposed to be training with the First Magister?
05:51Why are you back early?
05:53Emery mentioned a peculiar child.
05:55I wish to see him myself.
06:05Prince William, your reputation speaks for itself.
06:09At your age, no mage in Theros comes close.
06:12No mage in Theros.
06:12No mage in Theros.
06:18So, you're the exiled mute who can't even do magic?
06:22Why are you even in tomorrow's trial?
06:23Not only will I stand there tomorrow, I will win.
06:29How dare you speak to the Prince like that!
06:33A speaking mute?
06:35A speaking mute?
06:36Fascinating.
06:36Since Emery vouches for your magic, prove it.
06:40Your Highness, he's a complete nobody.
06:43Give me a chance to prove myself.
06:47Name your test.
06:57The legendary Chronergate.
06:59It can open a portal to anywhere.
07:01Only a prodigy like Prince William could master such grand magic.
07:09The Frost Rose Beetle in the frozen wastes grants eternal youth.
07:13I require one for my mother.
07:18You won't refuse me, will you?
07:20Frost Rose Beetle?
07:21It only thrives in the frozen wastes.
07:24The price to capture it is measured in lives.
07:28Your Highness, Aldric is but a child.
07:31Let me go.
07:32Hold your tongue!
07:36Hold your tongue!
07:37Cowards don't belong in the trial.
07:39Withdraw now, or be buried in the snow.
07:43A mere gust of snow.
07:46Aldric, no!
08:00Amusing.
08:05Your Highness, I beg you, open the Chronergate.
08:07My son will freeze to death in there.
08:09Didn't Lady Emeril call him the greatest?
08:11Surely he can survive a little breeze.
08:13Prince William is simply testing him.
08:15Your Highness, please, show some mercy.
08:19Bow and beg for my mercy, Aldric.
08:21And I shall open the gate.
08:23No need.
08:24Then let the cold be your grave.
08:30No, Aldric!
08:32My child!
08:34Oops.
08:35A slight miscalculation.
08:37How... unfortunate.
08:38Perfect. That nuisance is finally gone.
08:41Tomorrow I will represent the Malverns and show everyone my true power.
08:44I have witnessed his power.
08:47He would never die like this.
08:55I have witnessed his power.
09:00He would never die like this.
09:02Father, is there any way to bring him back?
09:04The frozen mountain is a two-day journey.
09:06Unless he wields the forbidden Cronomansus, there is no coming back.
09:10That's forbidden.
09:11Only the ancient Malagas could dare to master it.
09:14Why would you do this?
09:16Aldric never crossed you!
09:18I didn't force him.
09:19His own foolish pride killed him.
09:21Did I?
09:34Impossible!
09:47Impossible!
09:48That's a frost rose beetle!
09:49No one brings a live beetle back from the ice!
09:54Aldric!
09:55Thank goodness you're safe.
09:56Your master, Emera, must have cast a spell to bring you back.
09:59Believe what you will.
10:00I knew it.
10:01There is no way he could wield the legendary forbidden magic.
10:05Here's your frost rose beetle.
10:10Oh, really?
10:11Are you sure this isn't a fake meant to deceive me?
10:17A century rare frost rose beetle, yet Prince William discards it like trash?
10:22Weird.
10:22Frost rose beetles are gentle.
10:24They possess no offensive magic.
10:26My apologies.
10:28I forgot to say.
10:29I placed an eye spell on it for preservation.
10:32How dare you!
10:34Lunatic!
10:35How dare you mock the prince!
10:37If your incompetence drags the Malvern name into the mud, I will break you myself!
10:40Get down on your knees and beg for mercy now!
10:42That's just my weakest magic.
10:44I had no idea the prince was so fragile.
10:46What? His weakest trick wounded the prince, a high mage?
10:49The gap between their powers, it's beyond comprehension!
10:57Enough, William.
11:00Mother, he's manged my hand!
11:03The queen must be mad, we're dead!
11:05Your majesty, please do not blame us!
11:07He did it alone!
11:08Punish him!
11:09Your majesty!
11:10I apologize for my son's insurent!
11:12The queen was really furious this time.
11:14No one survives the wrath of the queen.
11:15He is finished.
11:16It was merely a children's squabble.
11:18Let it pass.
11:19Mother, you can't!
11:20This lowborn scum wounded me!
11:21He must-
11:22Silence!
11:22You were the one who set the trap.
11:24The banquet is at an end.
11:26You may all take your leave.
11:39You felt it too, didn't you?
11:40The moment he walked from that magic array.
11:49It felt less like facing a boy, but rather a mountain.
11:53It was suffocating.
11:55Is it truly forbidden for the magic it?
11:56I can conceive of no other explanation.
11:58That knight, that power, it could have swallowed an entire city.
12:06Could he truly be that mysterious archmage?
12:09I fear our eyes have deceived us.
12:10He is but a child of ten.
12:14Master Merlin, where are you going?
12:15I must summon my mentor, Virgil.
12:18Virgil?
12:18The first madral of the evil conclion.
12:20He is coming here himself?
12:21He was a disciple of Supreme Grand Master Malovus.
12:24His vision far succeeds mine.
12:25Only he can fathom the depths of such power.
12:27What if, what if Aldric really is the one?
12:31Then surrender your crown, my queen.
12:34What?
12:40No one dares humiliate me like this.
12:44Pray your luck holds, Aldric.
12:59May I be of service, your highness?
13:01An insolent bastard mocked me.
13:03I want his head.
13:04Naturally.
13:05Hunting rats is what I do.
13:06You will be paid handsomely.
13:08You're the finest mage killer in all of Theros.
13:10You won't fail me, will you?
13:13Consider it done, your highness.
13:18A top mage for a ten-year-old brat.
13:25How terribly wasted.
13:33I'll make all of House Malay kneel at your grave.
13:38Don't try too hard on tomorrow's trial, Aldric.
13:41It's alright.
13:43Look out!
13:56Run!
13:57He is the third strongest archmage in Theros.
14:01Run!
14:03Still breathing, little mute?
14:04Guess I underestimated you.
14:10Try surviving this.
14:16This cannot be.
14:24You... you're Malagas!
14:27Supreme Grand Master!
14:29I... I was not aware.
14:30Please forgive me.
14:31I meant no offense, truly.
14:39What on earth is this?
14:41No!
14:42Malagas, please!
14:45Malagas?
14:46The Supreme Grand Master?
14:48I thought he was dead long ago.
14:50I am Malagas.
14:55Not funny, Aldric.
15:00Wait.
15:01Malagas is alive?
15:03That perilous dark mage just saved us?
15:06I must tell father about this.
15:09Dammit!
15:10How dare Edgar run off with my gold!
15:15Your Highness, still no trace on Edgar.
15:18What did you say?
15:21We... we found Aldric's weakness.
15:26His dead mother, the one he holds most dear.
15:28Excellent.
15:30Then I shall prepare him a gift.
15:36Souls of the void!
15:38Heed my call!
15:40Aldric.
15:42Soon enough you'll be at my feet.
15:44Begging.
15:49Remember today.
15:51My presence shall make Paus Malvern the greatest name in Theros.
15:56Aldric, what are you talking about?
15:58Break your word, and House Malvern won't survive the day.
16:02Insolence!
16:03Who do you think you are?
16:04You are seeking your own death, Aldric!
16:07My promise stands.
16:09But beware, the danger is real.
16:11I expect nothing less than the brilliance you showed last night.
16:15I am beyond their reach.
16:19Pure madness!
16:21Intriguing.
16:21I'd like to see how a ten-year-old manages all of this.
16:25Grandpa!
16:26If he can truly shake Theros, I'll kneel at his mother's grave.
16:29And beg forgiveness.
16:31No problem.
16:31Father, you've lost it!
16:33You are the patriarch of Malwills!
16:34You cannot grovel a junior!
16:36This is outrageous, Grandpa!
16:38To restore the glory of House Maulville, no price is too high.
16:56Look, it's Prince William.
16:58What an entrance!
16:59Nobody makes an entrance like a student of Master Virgil!
17:08He's here.
17:25Who is that?
17:26He's actually outshining Prince William.
17:28That's Aldric.
17:29The one who humiliated Prince William.
17:31Rumor has it he's even more gifted than the Prince.
17:34Stop jesking.
17:36Prince William is a renowned prodigy.
17:38That mute is nothing but a Malvin outcast.
17:41The royal trial is the ultimate stage for Theros' young mages.
17:46Today, these three Hymerae shall serve as your judges.
17:51The winner will receive the Medal of Honor from my own hand
17:55and be named Theros' greatest young prodigy.
17:58And their lineage shall be raised to the glory of a crown house.
18:02The crown house take first place and House Malvin is back on top!
18:07Save it, Grandpa.
18:08That wretch doesn't stand a chance against the Prince.
18:11Kaelin would give us some real hope.
18:13Father, this is the most disastrous mistake you've ever made.
18:17Serafina, do not disappoint me.
18:22Victory is driven!
18:26Selina, announce the rules for the first round.
18:34Capture a flying beast with your magic
18:36before the hourglass runs out.
18:39More catches, higher scores.
18:42Only the top rank shall advance.
18:52Good lord! First round and it's already a nightmare!
18:55Hostile creatures, blinding speed and an emptying glass!
18:58Catching them is nearly impossible!
19:01Aldric, I hope you enjoy my little gift.
19:03Let the first round commence!
19:05Commence!
19:27Incredible. The other house's heirs possess such magical prowess.
19:32I told you to send me instead.
19:34That wretch cannot handle a stage this grand.
19:37That wretch cannot handle a stage this grand.
19:45Divine grace! A gift from the heavens!
19:48Victory belongs to Prince William!
19:53Where's Aldric?
19:54Where's Aldric?
19:54Why hasn't he made a move yet?
20:00What?!
20:08What is he doing?
20:10What a disgrace.
20:11He can't catch a beast so he plays in the dirt.
20:15Perfect!
20:16He's digging his own grave!
20:20This is your chosen one, Grandpa?
20:23At least I wouldn't be digging in the dirt in front of the Queen.
20:27Aldric, cast your magic!
20:28Stop this senseless digging!
20:30Stop this senseless digging!
20:42Phenomenal! First place is already his!
20:44Prince William's victory is absolute.
20:47Has that boy given up already?
20:49He never belonged here in the first place.
20:51A complete waste of our time.
20:53Low-born Brit.
20:54You will never be worthy to face me.
