00:04:00ROMAN
00:04:06PIGS
00:04:07Faster, you Roman pigs!
00:04:09Faster!
00:04:12Move!
00:04:38You, faster!
00:04:40Be careful. If one dies, you'll take his place.
00:04:56And you, faster, or I'll break your bones.
00:05:07Get back! Get back there!
00:05:09Move back there!
00:05:10Dragstone, quickly!
00:05:11You, come here and help me get him out!
00:05:38Easy now.
00:05:40The work!
00:05:41Hold it!
00:05:42Hurry up!
00:05:45What happened?
00:05:46His arm is crushed.
00:05:47He will bleed to death.
00:05:49Stop wasting time.
00:05:50He's better off dead.
00:05:53I'll finish him.
00:05:58Make one move and I'll kill him.
00:06:02You, continue.
00:06:07Take him away.
00:06:32Even with one arm,
00:06:35He might be of some use.
00:06:37My thanks.
00:06:39He is one of my soldiers.
00:06:41On the battlefield, you wouldn't have had the courage to face him.
00:06:49Now you may take out your spite on me.
00:06:52Take him!
00:06:55Come on.
00:06:56Now play the hero if you can.
00:07:00Foreign spy!
00:07:02For what you have done, I will make you suffer.
00:07:04Take him out to the cross.
00:07:05I'll show you.
00:07:07Up in the sun.
00:07:09And such a thirst that you'll ask us for death.
00:07:13But you'll pay more.
00:07:15Pay until you never forget.
00:07:17Put him up now.
00:07:19Come on.
00:07:27Water!
00:07:32Water!
00:07:34Water!
00:07:39Water!

00:10:40THE END
00:10:42Oh
00:11:12He was the Roman council yes, my queen why was he punished like that it tried to overpower the guard and start a revolt
00:11:34Unchain him and bring him here
00:11:42Pardon royal queen, but Roman dogs aren't worth your compassion
00:11:46For you to show such clemency to him
00:11:50I did not ask for advice simantio, what's more wait before you talk of mercy and compassion
00:11:56Hurry up there
00:12:06Oh
00:12:08The symbol of Imperial Rome now a breath would blow him over
00:12:22Now have you learned not to be rebellious
00:12:26It's no surprise the torture is best it was inflicted by your order
00:12:31Zenobia we know you this to her majesty Zenobia a rebel
00:12:36And a betrayer
00:12:38This will punish your insolence
00:12:40I hope it will
00:12:41I'm awaiting your order for my death
00:12:43It's useless to try to provoke me
00:12:49I will not grant that favor for nothing
00:12:52You must live
00:12:54Council Valerius
00:12:55Your sentence
00:12:56You will assist in the fall of Rome
00:12:59You will see your pride destroyed
00:13:01A superb empire broken to bits
00:13:04I give you my thanks
00:13:06That means a long life
00:13:09For none of us will assist in the fall of Rome
00:13:12You're mistaken council
00:13:14The Roman eagle has finished his flight
00:13:18A lie I will not believe as I live
00:13:22But before the end there will be bloodshed
00:13:27Yet Rome will live
00:13:29Take him back to the cross
00:13:34Take him back to the cross
00:13:36Good
00:14:00THE END
00:14:30Metsheba!
00:14:46Julianas!
00:14:49Oh, darling, you've come back. I've given up all of you.
00:14:52The gods have protected me.
00:15:00I'm so happy.
00:15:08You must be out of your mind.
00:15:12The queen has promised a reward for any Roman found in the city.
00:15:14I couldn't resist. I wanted to see you.
00:15:17I'd give my life for you.
00:15:19Have no fear for me.
00:15:21I can defend myself.
00:15:24Tell me, have you news of the Council Valerius?
00:15:28They haven't killed him yet, have they, Bathsheba?
00:15:30Worse. He's a slave in the mines.
00:15:32We have to get him out.
00:15:43I have five men with me.
00:15:45But if you're caught, the queen will have no pity.
00:15:48Do you know of any guard that we can trust?
00:15:54There is one.
00:15:55There's a new man called Laetor.
00:15:58He doesn't look like it, but he believes in Christianity, so...
00:16:02Maybe he will help.
00:16:05But how will he know me?
00:16:09Here.
00:16:10Put it on.
00:16:12But warn him that you got it from me.
00:16:17Hmm.
00:16:18Hey, you.
00:16:39Are you sleeping while you guard these dogs?
00:16:42Is it your watch already?
00:16:43Yes.
00:16:44But I'm not like you.
00:16:46I keep my eyes open.
00:16:47Go on.
00:16:48Go on.
00:18:18Hurry!
00:18:23Get out of here!
00:18:26Move, all of you!
00:18:27Move!
00:18:28Hurry!
00:18:29Hurry, you move!
00:18:47This way!
00:18:51This way!
00:19:03Water!
00:19:04Bring water!
00:19:05Drop the horses!
00:19:15Don't let me go!
00:19:16Valerius!
00:19:30Valerius, finally!
00:19:44You have saved me, my friends!
00:19:46We must go!
00:19:47Hurry!
00:19:47Now we can get on with our plans!
00:19:49Thanks, Slator!
00:19:49What's that again?
00:19:59I will return to Palmyra.
00:20:01And have her put you in the mine?
00:20:05No, not again.
00:20:06I must do it now.
00:20:07But why?
00:20:09It didn't work before.
00:20:11This time it will.
00:20:13Because she'll believe me.
00:20:16We'll turn our defeat into a great victory.
00:20:19The escape of the Roman consul is unpardonable.
00:20:30And you allowed him to get away.
00:20:34This is treason.
00:20:35It's pure treason.
00:20:36Why have you come here?
00:20:38Are you so proud of yourself?
00:20:40Haven't you done enough?
00:20:42Why didn't you stop him?
00:20:44I ordered him put to death.
00:20:46But you've refused to let me.
00:20:48You would do just as Rome would like.
00:20:51Oh, yes.
00:20:51He wanted quick death.
00:20:53Let this Marcus Valerius, renowned enemy, be caught before the week is out.
00:20:59Do not worry.
00:21:00The liberty of Marcus Valerius shall have a brief duration.
00:21:10And remember, I want him alive.
00:21:21You have lost her favor, as she said?
00:21:24Yes.
00:21:25And my purse.
00:21:26You see how much I worry.
00:21:28You'll be able to capture him.
00:21:32A messenger from King Sapor arrived from Persia.
00:21:35Where is he?
00:21:36Up in my room.
00:21:58Don't be afraid.
00:22:06I won't harm you.
00:22:08You.
00:22:09Here.
00:22:10It's the only weapon I have.
00:22:16How did you get in?
00:22:17That doesn't matter.
00:22:19I ask only that you listen to me.
00:22:20You're mad, Roman.
00:22:25You'll never leave here alive.
00:22:27It's foolish for Zinovia to fear me.
00:22:29What do you want?
00:22:31To be your ally.
00:22:35You?
00:22:36Why not?
00:22:37To be a defeated hero is horrible.
00:22:39And the Romans will only shame me and make me a gladiator again.
00:22:44So amusing.
00:22:46Between a gladiator's death and a chance to rebuild my life, the choice is not difficult.
00:22:50I place my sword at your service.
00:22:52You are a traitor.
00:22:54I fought hard for Rome and the Empire all my life.
00:22:58And look.
00:22:59All that I had is gone.
00:23:01I'll be forgotten.
00:23:02No more glory.
00:23:02I've nothing left.
00:23:04Do you think I'm so foolish as to believe you?
00:23:06Don't you see, Zinovia?
00:23:08I can help you realize your dreams of greatness.
00:23:11Me believe you?
00:23:12When you're a dangerous enemy?
00:23:14Listen to me, Zinovia.
00:23:17Yes.
00:23:17A marvel of rarity.
00:23:18A gift worthy of a powerful sovereign.
00:23:26Give your magnificent sovereign my thanks, and confirm what we have agreed upon.
00:23:31King Sapor in person will ride at the head of his legions.
00:23:35And the victory is ours.
00:23:37He awaits only your signal to attack Palmyra.
00:23:40No.
00:23:41We must be cautious, or Rome may attack us after Zinovia is defeated.
00:23:46Invade us, and force our regiments out of Palmyra.
00:23:53But, you tell King Sapor that I say to him,
00:23:58Someday we will make of Persia the fairest of the Orient.
00:24:05You will become the most powerful man in his court and in the world.
00:24:09So may it be.
00:24:12Promise.
00:24:13Promise I'll always be with you.
00:24:16Hmm.
00:24:18Can you doubt it, Erica?
00:24:20I'm not sure if you've told me the truth.
00:24:44What great help will you be?
00:24:46I know the art of warfare.
00:24:48And believe me, that is important.
00:24:50For my people, there's no need.
00:24:51Their enthusiasm is sufficient.
00:24:53Enthusiasm?
00:24:54You can't win a war with enthusiasm.
00:24:57So let me transform your army with my advice and counsel, and you'll be invincible.
00:25:01Then you'll be able to conquer the world.
00:25:03No, no more.
00:25:05Roman battalions have learned how to make war.
00:25:07And your own soldiers are untried completely.
00:25:10Even your officers.
00:25:12How can you hope to fight off the Roman legions when defeat has given them a thirst for revenge?
00:25:17How long will it take them to crumble your cities and kill off all your forces?
00:25:21And what will the end be for your people but death?
00:25:25How can I believe you?
00:25:27What proof of loyalty can you give me?
00:25:29Proof?
00:25:31Which one of them?
00:25:33The Oasis.
00:25:35The Oasis of Jatabu.
00:25:37Who are you?
00:25:45A Roman soldier who is tired of combat.
00:25:49Who is in the Oasis?
00:25:51Fifteen men.
00:25:52The only ones left in my command.
00:25:54Are you armed?
00:25:55No.
00:25:56And you men knew that we'd come to the rescue?
00:25:59It just happened that way.
00:26:01We heard that the Queen had sent troops to the desert to pick up the beaten Roman legions.
00:26:06What else are we but an example?
00:26:09We're tired.
00:26:10We've had enough.
00:26:11We're worn out.
00:26:12We can't resist any longer.
00:26:14We want to surrender.
00:26:16If you have lied, you will be beheaded.
00:26:19All right, forward.
00:26:36By now, Ego should have returned.
00:26:51If you have lied, the tigers at the temple will have a rich repast.
00:26:57Your tigers will have to wait in vain.
00:27:01Oh, that displeases you.
00:27:08At last.
00:27:09Now we shall know.
00:27:21Well?
00:27:23My queen.
00:27:23What news do you bring?
00:27:25Many men were there.
00:27:26I ordered the Romans taken to prison and they will arrive there within the hour.
00:27:30But I came here to announce it to you.
00:27:32It was really them?
00:27:33Yes, Majesty.
00:27:35Have you killed many?
00:27:36No.
00:27:37The thing was very simple.
00:27:39They all had sense and no one would resist.
00:27:43My lady, I hope the proof I have given is sufficient to convince you of my loyalty.
00:27:47I'd like the queen to see proof that is even more convincing.
00:27:55What?
00:27:57You kill the prisoners.
00:28:04Is that your order?
00:28:05Betray my men and murder them?
00:28:08Yes, Zenobia would ask that.
00:28:11You ask me to turn assassin and I will obey, but...
00:28:14Zenobia, I want to hear it from your own mouth.
00:28:19My minister decides the fate of the prisoners.
00:28:35Understand?
00:28:37That's for me to decide.
00:28:40Here.
00:28:43Use it.
00:28:44And finish off your work.
00:28:50Go.
00:28:50I don't want you.
00:28:51Go.
00:28:51I don't want you.
00:29:14I don't want you.
00:29:32Go.
00:29:33Water.
00:29:35Water.
00:29:35Water.
00:29:37Quiet, you jolts.
00:29:38There, that must be them.
00:29:58Sebastian, what happened?
00:30:00The rebels.
00:30:02We were attacked.
00:30:04We were defeated.
00:30:06And they escaped.
00:30:08Don't stand there.
00:30:16What happened?
00:30:17Speak to me, you idiot.
00:30:19We were a mile from Palmyra, just crossing the wastes of Tamarisi when we were assaulted.
00:30:24It happened so suddenly we had no chance to defend ourselves.
00:30:28Most of my men were lost.
00:30:30The victors took our prisoners and fled with them.
00:30:33Who were they?
00:30:34Desert men.
00:30:35We searched.
00:30:36Don't give me justifications.
00:30:38I want to find their commander.
00:30:40It was Lator, the head guard of the slaves.
00:30:44You, attend to this villain.
00:30:46No!
00:30:47No!
00:30:48No!
00:30:49Do you know what this proves?
00:31:02It proves there are traitors among you.
00:31:06I suspected it.
00:31:07Now it's confirmed.
00:31:08Zumanzio, on these weapons, I'm something of an expert, you know.
00:31:15It came from Persia.
00:31:17A very familiar pattern to me.
00:31:19Yes, Persia.
00:31:21What about it?
00:31:22Oh, nothing.
00:31:24My parents were Persian.
00:31:26What do you insinuate?
00:31:27Insinuate?
00:31:28Insinuate, not me.
00:31:29Since we have to collaborate in the glorious reign of Palmyra, then we have to trust one another.
00:31:36Let the high priest speak!
00:31:47Kill the virgin!
00:31:49Let justice be done!
00:31:51The flame that burns forever in the temple was in the care of the virgin Bathsheba, custodian of the spirit that guides our destiny.
00:32:18Yes, where is she?
00:32:21The virgin has fled.
00:32:24But the fire will burn anew in honor of Son the Immortal.
00:32:29Glory to Son the Immortal!
00:32:31The great sacrifice is necessary.
00:32:34The blood of the virgin must be spilled to placate the dark spirit.
00:32:45Nothing suspicious?
00:32:46Nothing.
00:32:47Where is Simon?
00:32:47Over there, pasturing the goats.
00:32:49He makes a fine God.
00:32:50A brave man, not many like him.
00:32:52In the words of the master, a man that follows.
00:32:55How is Bathsheba?
00:32:55She's fine.
00:32:56She has much need of your comfort.
00:33:02Bathsheba!
00:33:03Villanus!
00:33:10Only when you're with me do I feel safe.
00:33:12What now, Julianus?
00:33:21What now?
00:33:22Now we're together.
00:33:24The two of us, Bathsheba.
00:33:26So much killing.
00:33:28Will there be more of it?
00:33:29Don't think about it, my child.
00:33:30Don't think about it, my child.
00:33:31You shouldn't.
00:33:32It's much better.
00:33:36Your heart is pure, Bathsheba.
00:33:38That will protect you.
00:33:40Drink, Julianus.
00:33:42Ah, thank you, Sarah.
00:33:43The sand of the desert dries our throats.
00:33:48That was good.
00:33:49Give me more.
00:33:49Julianus, I have just seen a formation of soldiers.
00:34:08There are many Romans to the west.
00:34:10Finally.
00:34:11Julianus, let fortune guide you.
00:34:17You are my fortune.
00:34:19Watch over her, Lator.
00:34:27Watch over her, Lator.
00:34:27All right.
00:34:52Stop.
00:34:53Who are you?
00:34:54A Roman soldier who would speak with the Council Marcellus.
00:34:58Advance.
00:35:17A little more.
00:35:18A little more.
00:35:21All right, that's it.
00:35:24Are you Captain Julianus?
00:35:47I have fought at your side often, Council Marcellus.
00:35:50The situation?
00:35:52All's well at Palmyra.
00:35:54What of the Queen?
00:35:57The Queen's minister was...
00:35:59was carefully convinced that Rome is panic-stricken.
00:36:02So she acts accordingly.
00:36:03It's bad, though, I'm afraid.
00:36:05You don't know how preoccupied I am by the situation.
00:36:08In the next few days, Rome will send me two legions.
00:36:10Two?
00:36:11It's all Rome can let me have at the moment.
00:36:13They have all of Zenobia's army to put to flight.
00:36:16The catapult.
00:36:16They have nothing like that.
00:36:20The catapult.
00:36:21We have a few surprises in store for Queen's Zenobia.
00:36:24But what news of Marcus Valerius?
00:36:26His plan went well?
00:36:28There must be some way to arrange a meeting.
00:36:31I'll find a way to tell him.
00:36:32What is this clamor outside my palace?
00:36:58Speak up.
00:36:59The flight of Bathsheba.
00:37:04The sacred flames spent on a poor harvest.
00:37:06The people fear famine.
00:37:08And panic has made them assault the carts of provisions.
00:37:12I thought our reserves sufficient.
00:37:13But our reserves are nothing in view of a counterattack from Rome.
00:37:19And you have refused to establish the necessary contacts with Persia.
00:37:23Political ties with Persia are as bad as those with Rome.
00:37:26I have made my choice.
00:37:31Rome is the one I must fight.
00:37:33She is the more perilous enemy.
00:37:35I'm counting on you, Valerius.
00:37:37At your disposal.
00:37:40They talked before his escape.
00:37:42Used to tell of a certain Jesus who multiplied by some miracle bread and fish.
00:37:48Tell me, Roman.
00:37:50Can you accomplish a fine thing like that?
00:37:53Bread?
00:37:53Well, that's beyond me.
00:37:56I just rely on fighting well, not on miracles.
00:37:59That's enough.
00:38:00My people are suffering.
00:38:17If only I could help them.
00:38:20But despite the harvest, I must provide for war.
00:38:23A reward for the one who arrests the Virgin of the Temple.
00:38:41Her sacrifice will soothe my people.
00:38:43This should give you some idea.
00:39:13I love the splendor of my court.
00:39:15You are always generous, Your Majesty.
00:39:17My slaves are efficient.
00:39:19My cooks can make anything I ask.
00:39:22They seem to do magic.
00:39:25And do you really think that their magic may make for us
00:39:28an ally from a Roman?
00:39:31I love the splendor of my children.
00:39:33I love the splendor of my children.
00:39:34I love the splendor of my children.
00:39:35I love the splendor of my children.

00:39:40I love the splendor of my children.
00:39:41I love the splendor of my children.
00:39:42I love the splendor of my children.
00:39:43I love the splendor of my children.
00:39:44I love the splendor of my children.
00:39:45I love the splendor of my children.
00:39:46I love the splendor of my children.
00:39:47I love the splendor of my children.
00:39:48I love the splendor of my children.

00:42:49which Roman has any virtue don't you worry he hasn't long to live what are
00:43:14you waiting for for him to gain the heart of the Queen and her power can't you see she's lost her head
00:43:20over him yes that will prove unfortunate soon one day when they awaken she and the consul Valerius
00:43:27they'll be in the hands of Persia
00:43:29I'll be right back
00:43:59follow the road by the river up to the rocks
00:44:29here is the plan the Queen has assembled an army to confront the Romans there will be a battle in
00:44:43the desert Palmyra will be victorious but weakened her forces unable to support another attack and
00:44:50that is the moment to attack Palmyra with the help of King support legions have you understood all of
00:44:56this and if the Romans are not defeated we will be confronted by two armies that's not possible
00:45:01with my plan they'll be attacked at once from every side there's no escape I see in the entire zone we
00:45:09have covered all the wells with dirt in order that they do not die of thirst the legions of the Romans
00:45:16will be forced to march on
00:45:18they will be exhausted
00:45:22we will be waiting for them
00:45:26you will have a victory that will be memorable in the history of Palmyra
00:45:33what's your opinion of this plan Marcus Valerius
00:45:37look you want a battle on the plain in the open with no possibility of maneuvering even exhausted
00:45:46the Romans will have the advantage you're right your plan has too much risk Somancio in fact
00:45:51it's only the appearance you see that's what I count on Zenobia the hope that the Romans will think like Valerius and attack us with the certainty of victory
00:46:02the forces that await them are only part of our army the others are hidden here behind the gorge of Jaffa
00:46:15while the Romans are occupied at the front we will attack with the cavalry from the rear it will be a slaughter
00:46:27and this time we'll spare not a single one
00:46:33do you still think my plan naive consul Valerius
00:46:40you are wise to remember the imperial army
00:46:43only a miracle can deprive you of a victory now
00:46:48no more said
00:46:50because now you've command of the guard
00:46:52we'll fight side by side my Roman
00:46:55yes
00:47:05no more said
00:47:06the Civil War
00:47:07woman
00:47:07and
00:47:09the
00:47:10me
00:47:10I'm
00:47:11my
00:47:11it
00:47:13and
00:47:13I'm
00:47:15The priestess who put out the altar flame.
00:47:45No, no, let me go.
00:48:15What are you looking at?
00:48:26The sand dunes in the sunset.
00:48:30Now time is nothing.
00:48:33The ruins of the ancient cities of the past.
00:48:37Let's walk.
00:48:38Whose tombs are these?
00:48:44Ancient kings of Palmyra.
00:48:46They too once lusted.
00:48:48And now, all their passions are sealed in these tombs.
00:48:52If they had thought of death more often, they would have enjoyed life more.
00:48:56Perhaps if they loved life too much, they would not have left us these vestiges.
00:49:02Now Palmyra aspires to a mighty destiny.
00:49:06You yourself have said that everything falls to dust.
00:49:12The power of a king and his pride.
00:49:15That's true, Valerius.
00:49:20Palmyra will turn to dust even if the Romans win.
00:49:24Am I a fool then?
00:49:25Would it make any woman happy to be remembered for that?
00:49:29When her heart is lonely.
00:49:33What's that?
00:49:36The nightingale of the desert.
00:49:39A good omen, that somehow.
00:49:41Why?
00:49:42What is the omen?
00:49:44Love for a warrior.
00:49:45Oh, look.
00:50:07Oh, look.
00:50:07Even in the desert, there is beauty.
00:50:17They say that in each lotus is the spirit of a woman loved.
00:50:21And is there a queen among them?
00:50:24Perhaps.
00:50:26Isn't that one then?
00:50:30I'll try.
00:50:37Here.
00:51:02A flower for the queen?
00:51:04No.
00:51:06It is for the woman.
00:51:34It's all right.
00:51:37That arrow wasn't sent to you, but to me.
00:51:42A Roman arrow.
00:51:44Shall we keep it for a souvenir?
00:51:46Let us go.
00:51:47It's not safe here.
00:51:47Here.
00:52:04Hail, Lator.
00:52:22Hail, Marcus Valerius.
00:52:23Consul Valerius.
00:52:25Hail, Julianos.
00:52:26You found a curious way to let me know Marcellus arrived.
00:52:29He's there.
00:52:30I salute you, Valerius.
00:52:38Hail, Marcellus.
00:52:41I'll tell Rome I saw you in Palmyra in clothes.
00:52:44It'll amuse them all.
00:52:47Hmm.
00:52:49The perfume is oriental.
00:52:51How are you coming along with the queen?
00:52:54Has she submitted yet?
00:52:56You make a joke of it.
00:52:58Why don't you get to the point?
00:52:59Even though I'm dressed like a fool, I'm still a Roman.
00:53:03I know that, Valerius.
00:53:04And I'm ready to give you command of the two legions they have sent from Rome.
00:53:09I'm honored.
00:53:12Two legions.
00:53:13But Palmyra disposes of double the troops.
00:53:16I know it.
00:53:18But don't forget the valor and discipline of the Roman.
00:53:21You should see them.
00:53:22They're splendid.
00:53:23And prepare to make sacrifices for you, too.
00:53:25Can they go without water?
00:53:27Yes.
00:53:27We're forced to cut our supplies, and we find the roads obstructed and almost impassable.
00:53:33But even that will not stop us.
00:53:36Or keep us from the river.
00:53:37And at the river, you'll find the enemy waiting.
00:53:40Ah, the sight will just improve our legionnaires.
00:53:43Put them there, and they'll fight through to the death.
00:53:45That's what the Palmyraans are counting on.
00:53:48When they have you busy, they attack.
00:53:50From the rear, from the gorge of Jaffa.
00:53:53There's no hope.
00:53:54Are you sure?
00:53:55Can I depend on that information?
00:53:56I'm positive.
00:53:57They're already camped at the edge of the river.
00:53:59It's what I've dreamed about.
00:54:00To see them in a trap with no way out.
00:54:02And I'll owe the victory all to you for that bit of information.
00:54:07I'm very flattered.
00:54:10But I have my conscience to contend with.
00:54:15Valerius, what does that mean?
00:54:17Don't you know this information was received in confidence from the woman I love?
00:54:24Yes, Marcellus.
00:54:26I love Zenobia.
00:54:28Oh, why did I outlive my defeat?
00:54:33Wait, Valerius.
00:54:35You're forgetting something that's vital.
00:54:38We're soldiers, and nothing belongs to us.
00:54:40Not life, not even love.
00:54:42Oh, can't we have a victory without this orgy we've set up?
00:54:46What are you trying to say, Marcellus?
00:54:50You see, I'm certainly able to convince Zenobia to renounce all her absurd efforts.
00:54:58She may have an impulsive heart.
00:55:00You may be right, but I know I can persuade her to come and listen.
00:55:03She'll waste my time.
00:55:05A few hours, maybe, but my men must use those few hours.
00:55:09You must understand that.
00:55:11Tomorrow we start.
00:55:13Yes, Marcellus.
00:55:15Tomorrow.
00:55:16What a victory for you, Valerius.
00:55:19And what a price you will pay.
00:55:22I'm a soldier.
00:55:25Goodbye.
00:55:25Goodbye.
00:55:26Goodbye.
00:55:42What's the matter with you?
00:55:43Nothing.
00:55:46Perhaps it's the suffocating heat tonight that makes me feel impatient.
00:55:52You must tell me what's wrong.
00:55:54I'm preoccupied.
00:55:56The imminence of the battle.
00:55:58With that plan of Somanzio's, which isn't as...
00:56:01What are you saying?
00:56:01Oh, have no fear.
00:56:02Oh, have no fear.
00:56:05We have to win.
00:56:07Shadows are haunting me.
00:56:10But smile at me and send them away.
00:56:19Stay with me.
00:56:21Dawn is still far away.
00:56:24Even the Queen cannot distract this general from his work on the eve of battle.
00:56:29The Queen loves you.
00:56:38And I love you, too.
00:56:43You're so beautiful.
00:56:44Something is wrong.
00:56:59I can see it in your eyes.
00:57:00No.
00:57:01Don't look away.
00:57:03Look at me.
00:57:03What's troubling you?
00:57:07Shadows.
00:57:08I told you.
00:57:13I'm going for a walk.
00:57:15To see if everything's all right.
00:57:20Now rest well.
00:57:21Hear that?
00:57:46They're changing the guard.
00:57:48I'd better be there.
00:57:51I'll just help you.
00:58:01I'll just be careful.
00:58:03I'll just help you.
00:58:20I'll just be careful.
00:58:21Let's go.
00:58:51I know that Palmyra will give help.
00:59:18They'll do whatever I want them to.
00:59:21Give me whatever I need.
00:59:25Or maybe we'll use other methods.
00:59:28Whatever you want will be quick in a moment.
00:59:31You'll wait here for me.
00:59:33And the Roman?
00:59:34That's true.
00:59:36It's your job.
00:59:37A job that certainly pleases me.
00:59:39Valerius is the only obstacle that stands in the way of my plan.
00:59:44When we have gotten rid of him, then regardless of the outcome of the battle, Persia will have the advantage.
00:59:53King Sapor is strong.
00:59:55And his army is ready.
00:59:57When I give the signal, they will occupy Palmyra.
01:00:01To have such wealth and power, how comforting that will be.
01:00:06Remember then your most faithful servant.
01:00:09Accomplish the mission you have taken.
01:00:12And you will see my generosity.
01:00:14Have no fear.
01:00:15The Roman will be dead by tomorrow.
01:00:18Go now.
01:00:19It's as if you say a word.
01:00:39Let me go, please.
01:00:45Let me go.
01:00:46I know nothing.
01:00:47Go on, walk.
01:00:47Walk.
01:00:48Please, let me go.
01:00:49No.
01:00:50What is the meaning of this?
01:00:52I bring you the servant of a traitor.
01:00:55Speak up.
01:00:56Tell the queen what Somancio is planning to do.
01:00:59Pity.
01:01:00Pity me.
01:01:01Talk.
01:01:03I only obey the law.
01:01:05A slave's obedience.
01:01:06Speak up.
01:01:06Go on.
01:01:07King Sapor is all prepared.
01:01:09With his legions located at the foot of the Oro.
01:01:12More every day.
01:01:13At the orders of Somancio.
01:01:15With those legions he shall win if we have war.
01:01:21Somancio?
01:01:23A traitor?
01:01:26Yes, that is true.
01:01:28And so is the rest.
01:01:30Who killed King Odonato?
01:01:32The arrow was Roman, but the murderous hand was yours.
01:01:36And Somancio gave the order.
01:01:37No.
01:01:37No.
01:01:39Pity.
01:01:40Pity.
01:01:41I only obeyed orders.
01:01:43Pity, my queen.
01:01:44Swine, why don't you kill him?
01:01:46Guard.
01:01:48Take out this carrion.
01:01:50No.
01:01:51No.
01:01:51And see that he's dead before God.
01:01:53No.
01:01:54No.
01:01:54No.
01:01:54My friend King Sapor II of Persia has many messages of sympathy and has said once again,
01:02:11he'd like comradeship between us all.
01:02:14But Zenobia's temper breeds temper.
01:02:18King Sapor was never trusted by the Romans.
01:02:21And now his anger is formidable.
01:02:22Only he and all his soldiers, if they will come, can save our city.
01:02:30But we can't do that.
01:02:32You must decide quickly.
01:02:40What is the news?
01:02:42The consul Marcus Valerius has abandoned the camp.
01:02:48Summon all the men.
01:02:50Strike down my tent.
01:02:52We've only a few hours.
01:02:54I'm going to surprise the Roman army at the gorge of Jaffa before they advance on my territory.
01:03:00Go fast.
01:03:00Go fast.
01:03:24Go fast.

01:14:08With someone else the blow would have been mortal
01:14:14Only a man like that could have survived it
01:14:17But he suffers more
01:14:18Well, he has a fever, the crisis has passed
01:14:21Should he be taken with us?
01:14:23Well, I think he could travel
01:14:25Forgive me, Zenobia, I'm forced to disturb you, excuse me
01:14:41Forgive me, Zenobia, I'm forced to disturb you, excuse me
01:14:53Why do you apologize?
01:14:55You have the power now
01:14:56And I'm only a prisoner
01:14:58What privileges have I now?
01:15:01Certainly the respect to a woman
01:15:02Certainly the respect to a woman
01:15:04Only the gravest of motives would force me to intrude on your privacy
01:15:08I am ordered to take you back
01:15:11Back to Rome, I mean
01:15:13Must the Queen suffer humiliation as part of your triumph?
01:15:17I know you find it cruel, Zenobia
01:15:18I know you find it cruel, Zenobia
01:15:20But you know the conditions of peace
01:15:22Well, you shall see me relinquish that triumph
01:15:25Even more than that
01:15:26With the man I've shared everything with
01:15:28Counsel Marcus Valerius
01:15:30Are your people such fools they will honor traitors?
01:15:43It pains me to hear Betraeus spoken of a man as brave as Marcus Valerius
01:15:47You will see
01:15:48Marcus tried to persuade you to plead for peace with me
01:15:52But you do not remember this
01:15:54For you he exposed the traitor Somancio
01:15:57And although he abandoned you, it was not to fight
01:15:59To be sure you survived
01:16:01For you he wanted to show his respect
01:16:03To save an adored lady
01:16:06The horrors of defeat that might prove to be fatal
01:16:09For you he acts
01:16:11And we pleaded that he change his generous plans
01:16:29The wheezing halfway
01:16:35Oh, no.
01:16:36Oh, no.
01:16:36Thealin
01:16:38This was a war we never wanted.
01:17:02Under the able guidance of King Odonato,
01:17:04Palmyra knew many years of peace and prosperity.
01:17:08It was only after the tragic death of our friend
01:17:10that Palmyra was wracked by strife and misery.
01:17:14But Rome never forgets her old allies
01:17:17and has faith in Bathsheba
01:17:19and trusts she will continue the excellent rule of her dead brother.
01:17:26Go.
01:17:34By the gods who hear me, I plead with you, Aurelianus,
01:17:37and with the Senate of Rome
01:17:38in favor of Zenobia.
01:17:41The court will hear, Marcus Valerius.
01:17:44Zenobia rebelled against Rome
01:17:45solely because there was a traitor beside her.
01:17:49Knowing that war with Rome would weaken Palmyra
01:17:51and make her an easy prey to Persia,
01:17:53this man offered his plan to Zenobia.
01:17:57When you judge, I ask you to consider
01:17:59the request of a consul of Rome.
01:18:01I ask you to pardon Zenobia.
01:18:06I ask the senators of Rome,
01:18:08shall we decree slavery or freedom?
01:18:11How do you vote?
01:18:12I say
01:18:13to free her.
01:18:17Free her!
01:18:19Free her!
01:18:20Free her!
01:18:21Free her!
01:18:21Free her!
01:18:22Come on!
01:18:52THE END
