00:00The Dressmaker

00:07Once upon a time, in Zephoria, color wasn't just worn, it was owned.

00:14The aristocracy hoarded chromatic fabric rights, turning it into the ultimate status symbol.

00:21The more powerful you were, the more colorful the wearer.

00:28Did you see Lady Vos's ensemble at the Lunar Gala? Her silks barely shifted to Cerulean. Clearly her family's influence is waning.

00:38Perhaps she should consider a marriage alliance before her garments fade to Lower Zephorian Grey.

00:47In Lower Zephoria, color was forbidden to wear. A yellow scarf could mean imprisonment.

00:56What's this?

00:58Please, it's for my daughter's doll!

01:00Call her contraband. That'll be two weeks wages or five weeks in the jail.

01:14Shame you can't stitch half of those sketches.

01:18No limits. Just ink and rebellion.

01:22Just a moment.

01:30I got it!

01:31Chromatic silk? How did you-

01:33Don't ask. Upper Zephoria isn't as careful with their disposal.

01:36I can finally test my theory.

01:44Aaron! One stray thread of color and they'll shut this place down!

01:48We'd better stitch them quickly.

01:54Keep your head down, girls!

01:56Why are they so afraid of us wearing colors?

02:00It's not fear, child. It's control.

02:03What happened?

02:04The powerful claimed only those with refined sensibilities were worthy of wearing color.

02:11Oh, simple minds wouldn't be able to process the emotional complexity of wearing colors.

02:16Careful with that tongue.

02:18Have you told him?

02:21How?

02:22I've been studying the scraps from the factory.

02:24The living silks don't just respond to refined sensibilities.

02:29I think they respond to any human emotion.

02:32Thomas, color is everyone's birthright.

02:35For three weeks, she barely slept.

02:38The fabric defied everything she knew about textiles.

02:42It wasn't programmed.

02:43It was alive somehow.

02:45Not alive like plants or animals.

02:48But alive like... feelings.

02:52You don't just show color, do you?

02:55Interesting.

03:00You missed curfew announcements again.

03:03People are talking.

03:05Look at this.

03:06It doesn't just respond to emotions.

03:08It responds to everything.

03:10Heat, sound, touch.

03:14How?

03:15It's...

03:16It's like a conduit.

03:17Between the fabric and whoever wears it.

03:22What do you feel?

03:24It's warm, like...

03:25When someone hugs you.

03:27It's showing your feelings.

03:32What is that?

03:33Something I want you to try.

03:35Are you insane?

03:36If I'm caught wearing anything with color...

03:39Please, Lyra.

03:41Trust me.

03:42We call it...

03:43Empathic Silk.

03:47I can feel it.

03:48What's it like?

03:49Like...

03:50It really knows me.

03:52I've spent my whole life being told that color wasn't meant for people like us.

03:56Erin, what exactly does this fabric do?

03:59I think...

04:01It amplifies emotions.

04:03For the first time in my life, I feel seen.

04:06And if what someone truly feels is arrogance or hatred...

04:10Then we have to be very careful who wears it.

04:13We need to show others.

04:15A revolution, one garment at a time.

04:18Revolution often begins not with grand gestures, but with secrets small enough to hide against the skin.

04:26For the first time in generations, the people of Lower Zephoria carried color with them.

04:34Not as a badge of status, but as a reflection of what had always lived inside them.

04:38The colors were subtle, just enough to give them hope.

04:43You don't understand what it's doing.

04:47One boy who's never spoken in class.

04:50I gave him a bookmark with your fabric.

04:52Yesterday, he raised his hand for the first time.

04:56People linger like butterflies.

04:58Attractive to the scent of flowers at my stall.

05:01People are wanting to know where these things came from.

05:04Not yet. If the upper city discovers what we're doing...

05:09But this isn't enough.

05:12Lyra, the aristocracy won't simply let us have this.

05:16We need to be smarter.

05:18That means more risk.

05:20I know, but isn't it worth it?

05:22Prince Darius was unlike other aristocrats.

05:26San, you missed the council meeting. Again.

05:29Another discussion about punitive measures for Lower Zephoria.

05:34There are reports of color contraband appearing in the Lower Zephoria.

05:38Garments that respond to emotion, like living silks.

05:42That's impossible.

05:44Apparently not.

05:46Lady Isolde wants to implement random color scans.

05:50For what? To punish people for feelings now?

05:53Your Highness, if the Lower City gained access to the fabric,

05:59it could destabilize the entire social order.

06:03Ha! The social order.

06:06Perhaps it could use some destabilization.

06:09Careful, son.

06:11How long before they question why we deserve color and they don't?

06:15They accept what they must, as do we all.

06:18Perhaps it's time to see these emotional fabrics or myself.

06:34Zephoria thrives on order.

06:37Order thrives on tradition.

06:39And as your Royal Fashion Minister, I'm here to announce the Spring Gala event.

06:43A moment of pure, silent, electrifying rebellion.

06:50Then, fear gripped at Zephoria.

06:54As I was saying earlier, Zephoria.

06:58Order must be maintained.

07:02Find them.

07:03Lady Isolde's crackdown began.

07:04Lady Isolde's crackdown began.

07:17Lady Isolde's crackdown began.

07:21Where did you get this?

07:27No! Please! It wasn't me!

07:33We have a name minister. A tailor.

07:39Erin.

07:41Excellent. Bring her here.

07:45When she holds our baby, her scarf shows the most beautiful shade of purple.

07:51And how long before the Upper Shitty notices?

07:55Before they take even this small joy from us?

07:58We have to stop. It's not just fabric anymore.

08:05It's war.

08:06They raided the Tanner's district.

08:08I saw it.

08:10Just when it seemed like the rebellion had outgrown her.

08:15She's done nothing wrong.

08:19Nothing wrong, you say?

08:22No.

08:28No.

08:29No.

08:30No.

08:34Watch where you're...

08:37You saw nothing.

08:39That fabric.

08:41Wait.

08:43How did you make that?

08:44There she is. The color trader.

08:45What do we have here? A sympathizer?

08:47No.

08:48No.

08:50No.

08:51No.

08:52No.

08:53No.

08:54No.

08:55No.

08:56No.

08:57No.

08:58No.

08:59No.

09:00No.

09:01No.

09:02No.

09:03No.

09:04No.

09:05No.

09:06No.

09:07No.

09:08No.

09:09No.

09:10No.

09:11No.

09:12No.

09:13A sympathizer.

09:15Get off me.

09:17Oh, Lady Easold will want to see this.

09:22Didn't expect a tailor as my cellmate.

09:25Didn't expect a criminal prince.

09:27What makes you think I'm a prince?

09:30That little pause before you denied it. Aristocrats are terrible liars.

09:34So, what's your crime? Improper hemlines?

09:38Yours? Crimes of fashion?

09:39crimes of fashion.

09:42Why risk everything for something as simple as color?

09:47Why sneak into Lower Zephoria just to see it?

09:53It's not just fabric, it's choice.

09:56They make us dress like ghosts, so we'll forget we're alive.

10:00What if you could change that?

10:02Truly.

10:03I expected some filthy Zephorian street rat.

10:20Instead, I find an artist.

10:23I will make this super simple for you, girl.

10:28Create for us the nobility for the upcoming Spring Gala.

10:33Use your gift to elevate our status, or watch your designs burn, your friends get hurt,

10:39and you rot in prison while Zephoria forgets you ever existed.

10:44I accept the tribute, please don't hurt them.

10:52Your talent deserves to be here, so long as it serves the right hands.

10:57You'll have access to the finest materials in Zephoria.

11:02Arryn, you should feel honored.

11:04The entire court will be watching.

11:07I expect perfection.

11:09I understand the importance, my lady.

11:17Whenever she saw all the colors she was never allowed to touch, wear or weave.

11:24Her silent rage would fuel her rebellion.

11:29At night, Arryn wore a gown, entirely made of empathetic silk.

11:34Her secret plan was to expose the nobility, who thrived on falsehood and pretense.

11:40But, she needed help.

11:44Taylor, you've been summoned.

11:49It's you.

11:51Sorry our conversation in the prison cell was cut short.

11:55So what now?

11:56You tell me that the laws are there for a reason?

11:58No, you're right.

12:00It's unfair.

12:02The color laws are built on control, not tradition.

12:06Then help me end them.

12:11Follow me.

12:14It's made of pure, empathic silk.

12:17I have heard of your work.

12:18It's remarkable.

12:20Are you going to report me?

12:21No, Arryn.

12:23You can trust me.

12:24An alliance was formed.

12:26Psst, Arryn, all of Lower Zephoria is planning a protest during the gala.

12:35What?

12:36For you?

12:37No, Lyra, the guards will massacre them.

12:40We have to stop it.

12:42I have a plan.

12:49The night of the gala, Arryn got the white gown delivered to Princess Lara, Prince Darius's

12:55sister, who was unaware of the gown's true nature.

12:59Your Highness, your gown for the evening has arrived.

13:02It's unlike anything I've ever seen.

13:06The nobles paraded past in stunning gowns Arryn made.

13:13Presenting Her Royal Highness, Princess Lara of Zephoria.

13:25The moment Princess Lara stepped under the chandelier light, her gown was no longer royal white.

13:33It shifted into hues of soft blues and golds, of kindness, then to deeper violets of empathy.

13:42What is that?

13:44All my life I've hidden who I truly am.

13:49I have never truly agreed with the chromatic laws.

13:52Neither has my brother Darius.

13:53Guards, arrest the tailor.

13:57She has bewitched the princess.

13:59This is me.

14:01These are my true colors.

14:04No one touches her.

14:06Darius, stand down.

14:08No.

14:12I'm so fed up of this facade.

14:14Can't you all see how hollow we have become?

14:17This is a trick.

14:21This fabric.

14:22This witchcraft is nothing but dangerous mind control.

14:28Mind control or truth?

14:31You would let a dressmaker unravel centuries of order.

14:35Order or control?

14:37You spend your lives pretending your titles make you more.

14:41But this fabric doesn't change you.

14:46It only reveals who you already are.

14:49If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear.

14:52Then prove it.

14:53Ridiculous.

14:53The fabric remained gray.

15:03Lifeless.

15:06Why isn't it changing?

15:08It seems your so-called magic is failing, Taylor.

15:13No, it isn't failing.

15:16There's just nothing to show.

15:19Enough of this.

15:21But it was too late.

15:23She was exposed.

15:24Stop.

15:37Zephorians.

15:38For years you were told color belonged to the privileged.

15:42But tonight...

15:43I end the laws.

15:49Color belongs to you, Zephoria.

15:52Zephoria.

15:54Uphold the tradition, princess.

15:59Tradition is not worth upholding if it suffocates those beneath it.

16:05I think we just won.

16:10Purple suits you.

16:13I'm 65 years old.

16:16Never thought I'd live to wear color.

16:19Ready?

16:21Lead the way, professor.

16:24Unreal.

16:25A royal academy where anyone with talent can study.

16:34The woman who showed us our true colors should do the honors.

16:43Color was never around to represent rank, but individual choice.

16:48All of Zephoria stood transformed, not by revolution, but revelation.

16:54And they all lived happily ever after.

16:57Lord of Zephoria is a grou懇ed war формal.

17:04Lord of Zephoria is a girl in this room.

17:04They might be in

17:19lawiki's name are sealed with ease of relief.

17:21It was written because the shooters גםfeld yeah, they'd like to expire.
