00:00I'm looking for the oracle of Gaia.
00:05I'm the oracle.
00:07My mother died before she could explain the riddle of my life.
00:11Your father is the king of Athens.
00:14You carry the sacred lexicon inside of you.
00:17The lexicon is a riddle indeed.
00:20But you will eventually unravel its mysteries.
00:22When you do, our enemies will be swept away.
00:24What does it do?
00:25It leads to the doors of Animbus.
00:30Why was he within range of enemy fire?
00:34We have averted an assassination attempt on the king.
00:37But who will command the king's armies now?
00:39His son, Lycos.
00:41Submit, son of Aegeus, or your friend dies.
00:44No!
01:00A serpent with a line of yellow diamonds running down its spine.
01:24The serpent is coiled around the waist of a maiden.
01:32With long, plaited hair, they are dancing in a circle.
01:38A blind prophet watches the dance.
01:42He wears a crown of white flowers.
01:45In one hand he holds a sign.
01:47In the other, an olive branch.
01:50A ring?
01:51They dance to the speed of time.
02:01The ring of the magi.
02:08Where is the ring?
02:10I don't see a ring.
02:12The five maidens are your five fingers,
02:14and the serpent is the sacred ring.
02:16You know where it is.
02:17No.
02:18No.
02:18No.
02:47A beast. A beast.
02:56What sort of beast?
02:58Son of Aegeus, what sort of beast?
03:00I don't know.
03:10Then we will have to probe deeper.
03:14Wait!
03:17Let me take his seed.
03:20Why would you help us?
03:22To save him from your clumsy method.
03:26I'll have a better chance than you if you let me do it my way.
03:42If you fail, I'll kill you.
03:44Your needle might kill him.
03:46My mouth will only leave him spent.
03:48My mouth will only leave him spent.
03:51I'll tell you, sir.
03:54I'll be right back.
03:56I'm at the end.
03:57And I'll do it my way and put my belongings.
03:59I'll do it your hand and put on yourŠ½Š¾Ń.
04:02I'll do it yourannen face.
04:04So serve your allegiance.
04:05Oh, my God.
04:35Are you strong enough to fight?
04:42No.
04:43What do you mean, no? You have to fight.
04:58Wake up, mercenary, or we will die here.
05:03Stop!
05:05Wake up!
05:15Wake up!
05:29No!
05:59Don't hurt her!
06:15No!
06:29For my brother.
06:59You're preparing another of your plays, Lycos.
07:09Don't I look like the real thing to you, Mother?
07:12Take it off.
07:13Would you have me lead the King's armies in a tunic?
07:16Don't be ridiculous.
07:17I didn't put you in charge so you could lead.
07:19I feel ready, and I'm full of ideas.
07:22It's very funny.
07:24Now listen carefully.
07:25You will attend each and every strategy meeting.
07:29But if you so much as open your mouth,
07:31I'll send you to Priest Xerxes for another of his purges.
07:34I'll lose the respect of my generals.
07:36You can't lose something you don't have.
07:40Your job is to watch and listen and report back to me.
07:48Come here.
07:51Remember, we're a team, you and I.
07:54We rely on each other.
07:56And when we solve the riddle of the lexicon, your day will come.
08:02I promise.
08:07We must move the Abyssinian archers to bolster the West Wall.
08:10Don't that leave the East Wall too exposed?
08:13The East Wall is taller.
08:14But if King Minos' foot soldiers surprise us with another night attack,
08:18moving across no man's land like silent snakes
08:21that'll have time to climb before they're seen.
08:23We'll need to take that risk.
08:24Our King's impetuous tactics have left the West Wall vulnerable,
08:27and him on a sickbed.
08:28It's time to change our course.
08:30Please, General Proteus, show a little sensitivity.
08:35This is war, Lord Pallas.
08:37I have no time for milk teeth and mealy-mouthed mandarins.
08:40My men are dying in droves.
08:43What is your view, Prince Lycus?
08:45As Commander-in-Chief, this is technically your decision?
08:48You're not seriously suggesting that we listen to a boy?
08:51Like us?
08:57We're wasting time.
08:58General Priam, move the Abyssinian archers to the West Wall before nightfall.
09:02No.
09:07I mean, yes.
09:11The Prince has his father's tactical flair.
09:13What I meant was, move them as you suggest.
09:16In broad daylight so that the enemy scouts see.
09:20But then quietly replace them with the regiment from Thebes.
09:23What a nonsense.
09:24The regiment from Thebes is in no condition to face the enemy.
09:26But they'll be quite safe.
09:28The enemy won't attack the West Wall,
09:30seeing it guarded by Abyssinian archers.
09:32But the men of Thebes look nothing like Abyssinians.
09:35Have them swap armor.
09:38Subterfuge.
09:40From a distance, they will look the same.
09:41But we will offend Apollo, god of light and truth.
09:44And earn the respect of Ares, god of war.
09:50When the enemy climbs the East Wall at night, believing it's unguarded,
09:56the real Abyssinian archers will be waiting for them.
09:58Enough! This is war, not theater.
10:00It worked in the Elysian campaign.
10:03Therese camouflaged its men.
10:05And won.
10:06That's ancient history.
10:07But it might just work.
10:09Are you suggesting-
10:10Yes.
10:12As you said, General,
10:14it's time to change course.
10:15Of course.
10:33Out of my way!
10:34I am your king!
10:36How dare you!
10:38I am perfectly all right.
10:41Can you tell these idiots to leave me alone?
10:43It's wonderful to see you out of bed, dearest.
10:47But you shouldn't push yourself too hard.
10:49I am the king of Athens.
10:52I walk in step with the gods.
10:56I don't know a man alive, as strong, as powerful as you, dear heart.
10:57I still catch my breath at the sight of you standing tall.
10:58Most men would curl up and die from your wound.
10:59But you shrug it off as if it were a scratch.
11:00Call my generals together.
11:01I don't know a man alive, as strong, as powerful as you, dear heart.
11:05I still catch my breath at the sight of you standing tall.
11:06Most men would curl up and die from your wound.
11:08But you shrug it off as if it were a scratch.
11:10Call my generals together.
11:11I have fresh plans for a bold counterattack.
11:12How exciting.
11:13What sort of plans?
11:14Tomorrow.
11:15We throw open the gates of Athens and charge the enemy.
11:23How exciting.
11:24How exciting.
11:25What sort of plans?
11:26Tomorrow.
11:27Call my generals together.
11:30I have fresh plans for a bold counterattack.
11:35How exciting.
11:37What sort of plans?
11:38Tomorrow, we throw open the gates of Athens
11:42and charge the enemy.
11:45I see.
11:48But aren't Minas' troops well entrenched?
11:52If we die, we die like Athenians, with fire in our hearts.
12:01And what becomes of your family, dearest?
12:05No more cowering behind the walls of Athens.
12:09Every lost man fights to the death.
12:13What's this?
12:15A tonic.
12:22If we hurry, we might reach the foothills of Breva by nightfall.
12:40And then?
12:41North.
12:42To Athens, of course.
12:44In that case, I'll say goodbye.
12:46I'm heading south, back to the Forest of Trozen.
12:48Why?
12:49It's my home.
12:52And when do you plan to seek out your father, the king?
12:55What makes you think I have any interest in meeting the king of Athens?
12:59Because he's your father.
13:01And what about the lexicon?
13:04What makes you think I have any interest in the lexicon?
13:07Wait, wait.
13:08Are you serious?
13:09Perhaps you don't fully understand.
13:12Inside you, if you can only figure it out, lies the power to open the doors to Olympus.
13:18And anyone who enters Olympus, home of the gods, becomes a god.
13:22So, in short, you, mercenary, have the power to turn mortal men into immortal gods.
13:31Really?
13:33What do you mean, really?
13:35I'm happy as I am.
13:36So, you think you can just go back to your simple life in the Forest of Trozen and no one will bother you?
13:41Yes.
13:42And the priests of Gaia, their allies, acolytes and associates, will just leave you alone to hunt and fish and sleep in the sun.
13:48I'll take my chances.
13:49Your mother brought you up in hiding because she knew you'd inherited the lexicon.
13:52You need my mother out of this.
13:53And now you're out in the open, you will be hunted down, tortured, bled, starved, and generally kept on the very edge of death until you give up the lexicon.
14:01And why do you care?
14:05Do you want to be a god?
14:07No.
14:08No.
14:09I want to stop the war and save Athens.
14:11War?
14:12Don't tell me you didn't know that King Minos armies have Athens surrounded.
14:17King Minos?
14:19Oh, mercenary, you really have led a sheltered life.
14:23So, let me get this straight.
14:26Even though Athens is in the grip of a bloody war, you want me to march into the King's palace and say,
14:33Hello, King. You don't know me, but I'm your son.
14:35Yes.
14:38Well, you're making this very awkward, mercenary.
14:43Goodbye, Oracle.
14:44I'm not leaving you.
14:45You won't like the Forest of Trozen.
14:47No, we are not going to the Forest of Trozen.
14:50Help me!
15:01His son.
15:05Are you sure?
15:06The visions were very clear.
15:08You bled him?
15:10Just to see if he was genuine.
15:12Once I'd established that, I intended to bring him to you, of course.
15:16Of course.
15:18But instead, you let him go.
15:22And the ring.
15:34He appeared not to know about the ring.
15:37But you could tell he was lying.
15:39Yes.
15:41I'm reasonably sure he knew where it was.
15:45Reasonably?
15:47Perhaps that's your problem, Priest Cyrus.
15:50You're too reasonable.
15:52Grown fat on the sweet juice of my benevolence.
15:56Yes, ma'am.
15:57You need sharpening up.
15:59And maybe a little help from the...
16:01Please, ma'am.
16:02There really is no need to involve the warrior priests.
16:03I'm more than capable of finding the mercenary myself.
16:04Athena's trail of blood and roses will light your path.
16:05In fact, I'm reasonably sure he's headed south.
16:06Back to the Forest of Trozen.
16:07Thankfully, you don't have to be reasonable.
16:08You just need to keep step with the cloven hooves of the east wind.
16:11Oh.
16:12Oh.
16:13Oh.
16:14Oh.
16:15Oh.

17:03Oh.
17:04Oh.
17:05Oh.
17:06Oh.
17:07The fields are burning.
17:19What?
17:21An older son, Aegeus.
17:24Water.
17:25I need to drink.
17:26Was she fair or dark, hmm?
17:40And why didn't you take her as your queen?
17:43I am in no mood for riddles, Medea.
17:49You knew my son didn't have the lexicon inside him
17:52because you'd already given it up.
17:56Why?
17:59The lexicon is not just a riddle.
18:02It is a curse.
18:05An angry, dangerous beast.
18:11Coward.
18:12I didn't know you then.
18:14If I had, I would have trusted you to guide me.
18:19But instead, you lied to me.
18:24What else could I do?
18:26My people look up to me because they believe I was chosen by the gods.
18:30What was her name?
18:34I don't know.
18:35She was a chance encounter.
18:38You disgust me.
18:39How long have I been to sleep?
18:59Not long enough.
19:02What does that mean?
19:03Here's the troubling times.
19:08I need room to maneuver.
19:11You.
19:17There.
19:1817,000 times.
19:28You're twice the proportionate speed of the avid seagull.
19:33There's a seagull.
19:35There's a seagull.
19:36Are you hurt?
19:39What's that got to do with it?
19:41You were flying.
19:42You genius.
19:43Who are you?
19:44Oh, wait.
19:45Don't tell me.
19:45You must be the offspring of Hermes, god of quicksilver.
19:49Let me help you off with that.
19:51Touch it and I'll set loose the marauding hordes of Proteus.
19:54It's an old man.
19:55Get you.
19:57What are you?
19:58A harpy?
19:59No.
20:00I'm a woman.
20:02In that case, out of my way.
20:04Harpy.
20:05I'm not in your way.
20:08You made these winks.
20:10More dazzling brilliance.
20:12Indeed I did, son of Hermes.
20:18I'm not well enough.
20:23Hold this.
20:28Apollo, god of light and sun, truth and prophecy, healing and music, poetry, plague, archery, colonization,
20:36thoughts and words, floods, and intellectual inquiry.
20:43Take me, Daedalus.
20:45Daedalus?
20:45Daedalus!
20:46Take me.
20:49You humble servant.
20:53There's penance for my son.
21:03What?
21:06What do you think you're doing?
21:08Let go.
21:10Pull him off.
21:11It's Daedalus, the inventor.
21:13He's a genius.
21:15We should move undercover.
21:26Minus' men.
21:27Quick, get me out of this.
21:29Minus' men, really?
21:30Are you sure?
21:31What did they see?
21:47Oh.
21:48How are our generals?
21:57Argumentative, as always.
22:00Anything I should know?
22:02No.
22:05I did as you asked.
22:08Watched and listened.
22:09We missed our session today.
22:12Yes.
22:14I'm working on something else.
22:16Go to sleep.
22:17Go to sleep.
22:17Go to sleep.
22:18What the hell is this?
22:20I don't know.
22:21I can't hear you.
22:22I don't know.
22:23I want to know what the hell is.
22:24I know.
22:25You should never get out of here.
22:30I don't know.
22:31I know.
22:32I know.
22:38I know.
22:39I know.
22:44It is over.
22:45My dear prince, it appears that your strategy worked.
23:09The timing, location, even the number of men. All exactly as you predicted.
23:16General Proteus is both embarrassed and delighted.
23:19In fact, he's so delighted that he's taken most of the credit.
23:22What? From now on, he's sure to hang on your every word.
23:26In case he can come up with more brilliant ideas.
23:39Perhaps we should stop and rest.
23:54Holy Mother, have you brought me together with the son of Aegeus so that he can lead me to the king's door?
24:01If that is your wish, why does he fight me so?
24:11Please, Holy Mother, help me persuade him to go to Athens.
24:18But most of all, give me the strength and the courage to avert your sacred vision and kill his father, the king.
24:48Son.
24:59Son.
25:05Ingaus.
25:06No.
25:07No.
25:09No.
25:11you must pay tribute to the gods

32:59the impossible challenge involved stringing a thread through a conch shell
33:11the conch as I'm certain you're well aware
33:14is a veritable labyrinth of tiny twisted passageways
33:18completely impregnable
33:20I hear you say
33:20think again
33:22I smeared a little honey
33:24around one hole of the shell
33:26and then tied the thread to a carpenter hand
33:28and sent it through the other
33:28it is only a matter of time

34:48Come to me.

34:55Come to me.
34:58Come.
35:01Come to me.
35:04Come to me.
35:11Come where?
35:12Come.
35:17Come.
35:19Come.
35:21Come to me.
35:30Come.
35:36Come to me.
35:37Come.
35:41Don't look at her.
35:44Kill me.
35:46She's a stone with us.
35:47She is demon nymphs.
35:48You lead me to Hades.
35:50Fuck.
35:52Let me go.
35:54Don't look at her.
35:56She wants to help me.
35:57Can't fix this.
35:58She's not human.
36:02Come to me.
36:04The eyes.
36:05Try.
36:07Don't look at her.
36:08Don't look at her.
36:16Ah!
36:22Medea.
36:23I need a company of men.
36:24Our very best troops.
36:26Spies, too.
36:27For a special mission.
36:28How many men?
36:2920.
36:3030.
36:31Trackers, too.
36:32They might need to split up and search different parts of the forest to the south.
36:35Search for what?
36:37No one can know about this, Lord Pallas, you understand?
36:41I'm afraid you're talking to the wrong man.
36:44Your son, Prince Lycos, is our commander-in-chief now.
36:47No one can do anything without his consent.
36:50He's made that very clear.
36:51Now that we know just how gullible the enemy is, we can experiment-
36:58Lycos, a word, please.
36:59I wouldn't be surprised if they felt-
37:00Lycos!
37:01What is it, Mother?
37:02A moment of your time, please.
37:04Of course.
37:05I'll come and find you as soon as I finish setting the day's agenda.
37:08Now.
37:10As you can see, I'm very busy.
37:11But Kyman will make sure to remind me to come and look for you.
37:16And I don't see why we shouldn't plan some stealth attacks of our own.
37:18Something bold.
37:19Something daring.
37:20Something daring.
37:34This is a very dangerous crossing.
37:37Genius!
37:38Let me go home on my own.
37:43And I'll return once I've found the ring.
37:47I've saved your life twice, mercenary.
37:50Don't you think that now, finally, you should just accept that you're safer with me?
37:54Frankly, I don't trust you to find the ring on your own.
38:08I need help.
38:10You're right.
38:11You're right.
38:15Don't I need help.
38:16This is your hope.
38:17Oh!
38:18Ah!
38:19Oh!
38:21Oh!
38:26Oh, oh.
38:28Oh, oh.
38:29Oh!
38:30Oh, oh!
38:31Oh!
38:32Oh!
38:33Oh!
38:34Oh!
38:35Oh, oh!
38:36Oh, my God.
38:39Oh, my God.
38:40Rescue me!
39:06You dare look for me?
39:24I will color your soul and make you mine.
39:36Are you all right, Mercury?
39:54Drax!
40:00What happened?
40:02Well, you didn't see it.
40:04See what?
40:06It seems the gods don't want me to find their ring.
40:09Gods!
40:34Mother.
40:42Abyssinian archers ambushing the enemy at night, like us?
40:46It worked, Mother.
40:50That's not the point.
40:52Morale is returning. Our generals feel confident again.
40:54And where does that leave your father?
40:56If we make progress, win important victories and hand him back the army in better shape than he left it, won't he thank us?
41:02It's not him I'm worried about. It's his court.
41:07If they get the idea they can do better without him, we'll all be in terrible danger.
41:12I will protect us, Mother.
41:14No one will hurt me. I carry the sacred lexicon.
41:16I doubt that even the promise of the lexicon will help you.
41:19You might win a few battles against King Minos.
41:23But believe me, your court, its priests, noblemen and generals, aren't as easy.
41:29On to Zizi.
41:47Is everything all right, Majesty?
41:51For the first time in my life, I have my mother's respect.
41:59How do we get down?
42:20Climb.
42:24Is there no other way?
42:29We'd be in my head.
42:30We're not big enough.
42:34What if we see the best traitors?
42:39We have a master of discovery.
42:40I beat the Davidson.
42:41Cansize.
42:42Trainingmen.
42:43The Wangos Meade.
42:44In the first time.
42:45We have the perfect proxyweapon.
42:46All the details.
42:47The Wangos Meade.
42:49Do my necessary video.
42:50Keep your husband honest.
42:51And we don't remember me.
42:52A machine.
42:53I'm Prepare.
42:54The Wangos Meade.
42:55The Wangos Meade.
42:56The Wangos Meade.
