00:09To be continued...
00:33You switch your locker, and I eat the turrets!
00:53This is the Alicant. You find it Cholosniendana. May you offend them from Horowitcha.
01:00You fool! Are you so heavy with drink that you fail to recognize the spawn of Ortigen?
01:15Prince Pison, forgive Alduin's impertinence.
01:22And he will be punished.
01:26What will from your father?
01:29My father is dead.
01:34What do you want?
01:37My father is dead, and I am his heir. High King of the Britons.
01:46And yet you ride here. Unannounced. No honor guard. No warband.
01:55I did not know I needed a warband at my back to meet with an ally.
01:59You do if you're going to watch him shit.
02:04The sons of Constance have murdered my father. And now they claim his crown.
02:11And you want me to help you take it back.
02:16They will not be content until they have all of Britain in their grasp.
02:20All of Britain.
02:22Even now, they turn their eyes east to the Saxon coast.
02:34Let us march against these usurpers before they march against you.
02:44Why do I need you?
02:48You swore to uphold my family's claim and my father let you settle these lands.
02:55Let.
02:57Our pact was sealed in blood.
03:02You will be held to it.
03:17The son of Ortegen is right.
03:21A pact sealed in blood is to be honored.
03:26None to death.
03:34None.
03:35None.
03:35None.
03:40None.
03:45None.
03:46None.
03:47We're the new one had returned.
03:49Foster.
03:50Yee barte wee ye dada.
03:53Come over that run-wada.
03:55Foster yee gree barte wee.
03:57From the munda.
04:11Hail the Fisher King.
04:16Merlin.
04:21Merlin!
04:54And that's when I saw him, sat on the rock.
04:58By the riverbed, alone, shining as bright as the dawn.
05:06And we are most grateful to you, Peleus.
05:09Even as our hopes waned, you did not give up these many years.
05:15My lady.
05:19And you, my holy friend.
05:21How did you come to be my grandson's company after all this time?
05:25Providence, great king.
05:28The divine hand.
05:31Merlin found me prisoner of High King Vortigon.
05:35Prisoner?
05:38A king who holds hostage, a servant of the Most High, gambles with his life.
05:44Gamble Vortigon lost.
05:48King Abelak, I have been remiss.
05:50May I present to you, Uther, second son of Constance and his older brother, Aurelius.
05:57Sons of Constance.
05:58I see.
06:00Forgive me.
06:01My brother and I were loath to interrupt your happy reunion.
06:04Aurelius has defeated the usurper Vortigon.
06:07He is by right of lineage and victory, High King of Enos Pridin.
06:13If I do not fall to the acts of Saxon first.
06:15All the ambitions of a petty king.
06:22My brother surely meant no disrespect.
06:24King Abelak.
06:28And yet he speaks truly.
06:31This land is in a welter of confusion.
06:35There are more kings than sheep.
06:37More princes than crows on a battlefield.
06:42All seeking to snatch what they can, when they can, without a care for who suffers.
06:49Until this island is ruled by one, who wields both justice and mercy, there will be no peace.
06:58Aurelius' life is in danger, until the kings of Britain recognize his claim.
07:04It is my hope he could find sanctuary here, while I ride to rally what friends we have left.
07:10While we ride to rally your friends.
07:13Uther.
07:13To ensure Merlin is not remiss, pushing a claim in other courts.
07:21Right, Merlin?
07:22Very well, Uther.
07:24If you prefer knights in the saddle, to the comfort of Abelak's palace.
07:28You will not be staying then.
07:32I'm sorry, Mother.
07:34My people have seen enough of war and death.
07:39The High King of Britain will be safe within these walls.
07:44To a future of peace.
07:47Peace.
07:47Peace.
08:00Peace.
08:05Peace.
08:06Peace.
08:21Tom, remember what they did to me, my love.
08:33You fuss over me like a child.
08:36Well, other men call me immortal.
09:00Fisher King's sword.
09:03Your sword.
09:08I thought it must.
09:12Yet it has been here, waiting for you.
09:18The sword of a high king.
09:23Aurelius has a sword.
09:25A sword of Britain.
09:26I do not offer it to Aurelius.
09:41Jane.
09:44Oh!
09:59I'm sorry, Mother.
10:01I cannot accept it.
10:03Whatever the future may hold, I cannot take up that sword again.
10:19Then I will pray you have the strength to keep your vow.
10:29I wish you were not leaving so soon.
10:34Besides, the fish are always on their best behavior when you are here.
10:41What was it like, Merlin?
10:43To be insane.
10:45To be alone with God.
10:49Is that who you think I was alone with?
10:52Who else?
10:55I would dearly love to spend but a moment in my Lord's presence.
11:00You are fortunate among men, Merlin.
11:06Go.
11:07I have been greedy with your time.
11:10We will discuss these things again when you return.
11:16You fear for your sins, Grandfather.
11:20For surely your sins are no greater than any other man's.
11:26I had forgotten how much you see with those golden eyes, Hork.
11:33Yet in truth, my sins are too numerous to count.
11:39And they gave life to Morgian.
11:51I have seen her.
11:54Morgian.
11:57In the fire.
11:59In the stars.
12:04I do not know if God was with me in California all these many years, Grandfather.
12:09I know Morgan was.
12:14Trust in Jesu, Hork.
12:17He is the only hope for men like us.
12:23If hope we have.
13:24Sir, tell me about this place, Maradenum.
13:29Built by the Romans in the heart of a plentiful valley, not far from the sea.
13:34Your steward has a nasty habit of speaking on your behalf, Maradenum.
13:40If you were mine, I would have him float for impertinence.
13:45Pellaeus speaks as he serves, of his own free will.
13:49So you would have him believe?
13:52Are you suggesting the Emerus has me spellbound?
13:56Your words, boy. Not mine.
13:59You surprise me, Uther.
14:02I didn't take you for one who believed in magic.
14:05A man who catches the gaze of a beautiful woman?
14:08Is that not a form of magic?
14:11Or when a king, through cunning and deceit, rests fealty from his people?
14:17Is that not a sorcery of a kind?
14:20I know.
14:21I think I've never seen this.
14:23I know.
14:25I know.
14:25I know.
14:25I know.
14:26I know.
14:27I know.
14:29I know.
14:39I see you.
14:41I see you.
14:42Now that I'm here, come find me.
14:44What's it?
14:46It's me.
14:47It's me.
14:47It's me.
14:47Why do I don't?
14:49You only need the word of power.
14:51Why do you hesitate?
14:52You know what you must do.
14:55Master?
14:58What is it?
15:01What is it?
15:22We're going to keep it covered.
15:57Delightful place.
16:12What is your business here?
16:14I've come to seek a home I once knew.
16:18What home is that?
16:20The last time I was here, Pendara and the Red Sword was king.
16:28Nothing.
16:32Let them in at once.
16:34See to their horses.
16:47The same raid that took Melus took the town.
16:52Tifak, my father, tried to say what he could, but there wasn't much left.
16:56But it was at the beginning of our troubles.
16:59The same story is told throughout these lands.
17:03I fear greater threats has come.
17:05Yes, it's a different world since.
17:06Since, well, since you've been away.
17:11Will you sit at our table, my lord?
17:16Most kind.
17:21Why does she offer him the king's suit?
17:24Because Merlin is the rightful king of Maradon.
17:31Allow me to fill your cup, my lord.
17:54Read me my cup.
17:56This beast led me deep into the hills.
18:00But I could not give up the chase.
18:03These days it's rare when I get occasion to knock an arrow.
18:08A fine prize, Merig at Taldry.
18:11Son, meet our guests.
18:15Uther, Peleus, and Mers and Emrys.
18:28I must say, the brewer's art has reached new heights since I last held a cup such as this.
18:33This draught is worthy of any king.
18:35You shall have a better fit to take with you.
18:38Yes, when you've concluded your business here.
18:44What is your business?
18:46Perhaps our business is best discussed in the light of day.
18:49We are here to garner support for my brother.
18:54Aurelius, the High King of Britain.
18:57High King?
18:58Vortigern has already claimed that title.
19:02Vortigern?
19:03No longer has need of it.
19:10Well, I congratulate you on your victory.
19:15Over an old man already exhausted and sore beset.
19:20The greater challenge lies ahead.
19:23The Saxons.
19:25And a host of lesser kings who think themselves eminently qualified to bear the crown.
19:32And they'll have no choice but to fall in line.
19:40Won't they?
19:43Hear me, Taldrick.
19:46The Saxon Hengist has assembled the greatest war host ever seen in the Island of the Mighty.
19:51And before the summer is through, he means to take the throne.
19:55And he will have it.
19:57If we are too busy squabbling amongst ourselves to take up arms against him.
20:03We have arms.
20:04We have horses.
20:06And men who can use them.
20:07May you reek.
20:09Am I not the commander of our army?
20:11Yes, an honor you insist on squandering at every turn.
20:14The choice to have a new orbit tied by...
20:15Stop it!
20:22The day grows long.
20:24And I am not a young man.
20:29If we may presume upon your hospitality a while longer.
20:33Yes, I shall prepare some rooms for you and your men.
20:36Perhaps the emirist would prefer to stay in his old quarters.
20:40The king's quarters?
20:44Yes, should he wish, Tim.
20:47We insist.
20:48Thank you, my lady.
21:19Martha, win me a kingdom.
21:37Who's that?
21:41Do you take me for a fool?
21:45I do not.
21:46Then perhaps you should stop treating me as one.
21:49I have promised to raise an army for your brother, Uther.
21:53How I conduct my own affairs is not your concern.
21:55You may have swayed my brother.
21:58Your powers of persuasion will not work with me.
22:01Of that, I have no doubt.
22:52I have no doubt.
22:52Hurry in.
22:59There you are, my darling.
23:01You must hurry along to your studies with Callius.
23:04I don't want to study.
23:05You must, if you are to advance in your learning.
23:10Remember, Urian.
23:12Your mother knows what's best for you.
23:18Off with you.
23:28No one sees our plans for our aid.
23:32All because we live on these destined, godforsaken shores.
23:36The greater part of Britain could burn, and we'd been on the wiser.
23:39Let it burn.
23:40What difference does it make?
23:42We are alone and undefended, father.
23:44Should we not seek alliances for the welfare of our kingdom, if we were to appeal to Vortigern?
23:49Vortigern is dead.
23:54His tower fell to the sons of Constance, not two weeks ago.
23:58How do you know this?
24:00No doubt Aurelius will claim the throne for himself.
24:03The soil of these lands is soaked in the blood of would-be kings.
24:07Perhaps we should consider pledging our support to Aurelius.
24:15My dear Lord, have you forgotten the deal we made with the Saxon chief?
24:22How could I forget, mother?
24:24When I so strongly opposed our alliance with those savages.
24:28Is Hengist a savage?
24:32He fights for the interests of his kind, just as Aurelius does.
24:36But we are Britons.
24:38We should support our people.
24:40Are they?
24:41Our people.
24:43Only a moment ago you were bemoaning the fact that we were all but forgotten by them.
24:49But what do I know of these things?
24:51I'm merely a wife.
24:53And a mother.
24:57Still, I cannot help but wonder if there is not a greater strategic advantage for you in the current arrangement.
25:07You could be a most valuable ally to Hengist.
25:11The Saxon.
25:13The future is Saxon.
25:23I trust you still had to wear with her.
25:28Soldier always sleeps with one eye open.
25:30That sounds inconvenient.
25:31Not as inconvenient as a knife in the back.
25:34Come, we're all friends here.
25:36Not many in any way there came in the guise of a friend, man.
25:38Ah, my Lord Merthin.
25:41I wonder if I might have a word with you.
25:46In private.
25:48Of course.
25:51Do keep Uther out of trouble.
26:02Shall we seek out a morsel to eat?
26:10Watch it.
26:26Cheers.
26:28Cheers.
26:29Cheers.
26:31Cheers.
26:39A cup of your famous mead, friend.
26:41We have no mead here, only wine.
26:44Then a cup of your famous wine.
26:50They water it down, the Roman way.
26:56But in good measure, it serves its purpose.
27:10This is a warband of meridunums spent all its days drinking, rather than training.
27:16But you see, we are training, right here in the darkness of this hovel.
27:21With nothing to slake our thirst, but this sorry excuse for wine, eh?
27:28To your safe return, after such a long absence.
27:39Forgive me if I know not how to receive you.
27:43This is your realm, and rightly so, but I have been king here these many years.
27:47And your father and his father before you?
27:49Yes.
27:50And your son is next in line to the throne.
27:55Merrick is more interested in hunting and drinking than in the affairs of our kingdom.
27:59And yet he is your battle, chief.
28:02It is a wonder how he has time for leisure, given the frequency of the raids.
28:11Yours is a fruitful land, Taldrigg.
28:14Yet your fields are stripped, your walls are broken.
28:17Provisions are strained even at the king's table.
28:21At whose hand do you suffer this injustice?
28:24Not the Saxon, surely.
28:27For you would not have lived to tell the tale.
28:34Mocant's of the Belgae.
28:35He's been bleeding the neighboring lands of grain and cattle for the better part of a year.
28:39Like a ravenous bear, Tenton.
28:42Slumbering through the long winter.
28:44But why?
28:46He knows war with the Saxon is coming.
28:50And he intends to wait it out with ample provisions to spare.
28:55And you allow him to take from you?
28:57His men outnumber us two to one.
28:59So you let your people starve?
29:01I am not willing to lead my people to destruction.
29:04It is because you are not willing to lead them that the destruction is at hand.
29:08We cannot fight him.
29:10But fight him we would!
29:12Hey!
29:12We would rather suffer the sword, opposing that snake, than let him take what's rightful, Yaris!
29:17No!
29:19You've told your father as much?
29:22My father's too proud to heed our counsel.
29:26I'm ashamed, Mothin.
29:28I admit it.
29:31I saw no other way.
29:37I often question whether I'm worthy to wear the talk.
29:43If I am a king, I'm not a very good one.
29:51Well, your father must have good reason to let this insult go unanswered.
29:56No king would suffer such humiliation, my dear.
29:59Well, whatever his reason, it would not matter for long.
30:03My family has ruled this kingdom for the last three generations.
30:08Now, Mothin returns to claim his throne, and we can hardly stand in his way.
30:13He is but one man.
30:16He is but one man.
30:18What?
30:22Do you not know?
30:37Painted by a fairy woman, many years ago.
30:41Or so the story is told.
30:44They say Mothin slew seventy men with his own hands within these very gates.
30:50At Guthay...
30:52At Guthay, he slew five hundred.
30:57No man is capable of such a thing.
31:00No mortal man.
31:01They say when the Arwen falls upon him, he is given strength from heaven.
31:06The world stops.
31:09None can stand before him.
31:12I can assure you, friends, that the only thing that matters in battle is brute strength.
31:21Magic is for druids and poor women.
31:27Perhaps.
31:29But he is legend in these lands.
31:33He is more than a king.
31:36He is nearly an otherworldly being.
31:41He will take the talk from my father and declare himself high king before he is through.
31:48And neither you nor the Saxons nor all the armies of Britain and Amorica can hinder him.
31:56Unless we stop him here and now.
32:19You must listen to me, Luthor.
32:21Out of my way.
32:23Stuart.
32:27I bested you once before.
32:30Don't make me do it again.
32:32You had a little bit of a surprise before.
32:35Not this time.
32:36You thought that was my only surprise?
32:56You were attacking an armed man.
33:28You were attacking an armed man.
33:28You were attacking an armed man.
33:37Stop this, Uther.
33:38You risk ruining the Emirates' work.
33:41That's exactly what I did to do.
33:59Uther!
34:11Stand up, King Tawdry.
34:20You are right that you've failed your people.
34:24You've let fear rule your heart and govern your actions.
34:27And I do indeed have every right to reclaim my kingship and take back what is lawfully mine.
34:35But I deem it best to let my claim lapse.
34:40Too many years have passed for me to take back my throne.
34:45Merthen will not be king again in Maradunum.
34:49Provided you pledge your support to Aurelius.
34:57You have my word.
35:08Are you quite well, Uther?
35:10Just short of wrath, it's all.
35:17My warband will not fight for Aurelius while Morkant threatens our homes.
35:22Well, then it's a good thing we have the Battle Chief of Britain to bring the Belgae to heel.
35:28I'm...
35:29Afraid I must decline.
35:32Uther?
35:33I will join a fight against the Morkant.
35:38However...
35:38Only as a simple soldier.
35:41A cunning strategy, Uther.
35:44If we survive it.
35:46There's nothing like a brisk ride to revive a man.
35:58It's not it.
36:07It's...
36:08It's a thing.
36:12It's free.
36:14It's free.
36:15It's free.
36:19Aesu, receive your own with mercy.
36:24Who are they?
36:28Britons.
36:30From the villages along our eastern border.
36:36The Saxon move south and west.
36:40Killing and plundering.
36:42They rarely leave survivors.
36:44But when they do, we do what we can to lend aid.
36:47Care for the dying.
36:51You could prevent the death.
36:53You did what you could.
36:55No.
36:57No, no, you could have fought.
36:59What strength you think we have is an illusion.
37:03Each year, our numbers decline.
37:07Not a child has been born to us since.
37:13Our people are not long for this world.
37:17You have weapons like none have seen.
37:20Armored to stop the fiercest Saxon blade.
37:23As king, my duty is to my people.
37:29I cannot fight your war for you, Aurelius.
37:32No matter how just the cause.
37:36We are too few.
37:48Where are the Saxon now?
37:51Where are the Saxon now?
38:05And the fine king will make my son.
38:10But, who are we, if not people of our word?
38:17I say, Angus makes his men fight to the death for his amusement.
38:24You must not believe everything you hear.
38:27Aurelius, on your hand, is of noble blood.
38:31A diplomat.
38:33The Lord has a point.
38:35Is Aurelius not more fit to lead?
38:40Who knows who ruled all these lands when all is said and done.
38:47But if it is your desire to break faith with the Saxons, then he'll might oppose you.
38:54But I admit, I do worry how he will receive you, if word comes to him of your dealings with
39:01Hengist.
39:02Yes.
39:03Yes, we must not have him taking you for a traitor.
39:06A traitor?
39:08I had not thought of that.
39:10Surely anyone suspected of conspiring with the Saxons would be shown no mercy.
39:17I'm sure you'll make the right decision.
39:33Pray to God, Merlin.
39:37It isn't much of a plan.
39:39My God hears the prayers of all who call on his name.
39:47Something happened to your eye?
40:13You would ride to the village's aid alone.
40:17I'll try.
40:20You are a good man, son of Constance.
40:23But foolish.
40:25What would you have me do?
40:27What kind of king would I be if I let my people be slaughtered?
40:29A king who knows his limitations.
40:32There will be other battles, Aurelius.
40:35You are one man.
40:38You don't even know the country.
40:43I'm not above asking you to point me in the right direction.
40:51I have only one thing to offer my people.
40:55Everything.
41:03Our soldiers cannot ride with you to Rianfer.
41:08But perhaps they will escort their princess on a ride through our easternmost holdings.
41:13My lady...
41:13But we cannot leave our territory, Aurelius.
41:16If you choose to engage the Saxon, you do it to Lone.
41:20Lone is...
41:39You're one man.
41:43You're one man.
41:45You're one man.
42:03Stop there!
42:14What is your business here?
42:15You Belgae grow fat from the grain plundered from the fields of Maradonum!
42:22And?
42:23And we're taking it back.
42:32No one need die today.
42:34Tell your king Merthen-Emrys demands an audience.
42:38My king is not so easily summoned.
42:40I do not intend to make it easy.
42:47Make the hand of this man!
42:49What's that?
43:47If I do not return,
43:50tell my brother I died a noble death.
44:20We're going to recover from you.
44:40We're going to recover from you.
45:16We're going to recover from you.
45:23We're going to recover from you.
45:41We're going to recover from you.
46:05We're going to recover from you.
46:38We're going to recover from you.
46:56We're going to recover from you.
47:26We're going to recover from you.
48:10Thank you, milady.
48:12Don't thank me yet.
48:14By the time this night is through,
48:17we may both be banished from the Summerlands.
48:41Whoever you are, you've chosen a rather inopportune time to visit.
48:46I'm enjoying my dinner, you know very well who I am.
48:53I know who I am.
48:55I know who I am.
49:00I know who you claim to be.
49:29My son is a little bit.
49:33I know who you are.
49:35I know who you are.
49:39I know who you are.
49:43and I know who you are.
49:43You are my brother.
49:46Who are my people?
49:49I am king of the Belgae
49:51No one else is my concern
49:53And how will you defend the Belgae
49:55When the Saxon horde marches across your fields?
49:59When was the last time you stood with a naked blade in your hand
50:03Under the blast of the Saxon warhorn
50:05While a whole host of Saxon berserkers
50:08Flew toward you over the battleground?
50:14I will be well supplied
50:16After I march across every kingdom
50:18Deserted by kings
50:20Anxious to fight alongside your battle chief Uther
50:23And his fool brother
50:26In their fool war
50:29That is where you are wrong
50:33There is to be no war
50:38Uther himself has determined not to engage the Saxon
50:41Until you return what you have plundered
50:44And pledge fealty to Aurelius
50:52If Aurelius does not engage the Saxon
50:55He will be high king of nothing
51:01Already this day Uther rides against you
51:04He is the leader of this attack
51:07There is no battle chief to be feared
51:09Indeed
51:11Uther does not command Taldrigg's warband
51:15He rides today a simple soldier
51:21Indistinguishable from any other
51:27You bluff
51:29I do hope your men haven't killed him already
51:33Aurelius slew the high king himself
51:35To avenge the death of his father
51:38One can only imagine
51:40What he might do to you
51:49Stay our archers
51:51Call our warriors back behind the walls
51:53Now
51:58Your plundering is at an end Morgant
52:02You've abused your power
52:04And now it is time for you to make amends
52:07If you do not
52:09Aurelius will continue to raise his army
52:12But it will not be the Saxon he rides against
52:30My daughter has long had a mind of her own
52:34And I have all but given up
52:36Attempting to restrain it
52:40But you
52:41Who mean to make yourself high king
52:43Should know better
52:46If I do not allow my conscience to guide me
52:50I am unworthy of the crown
52:52You put my people at risk
52:54Your people are at risk already, King Everlack
52:57And we'll be as long as the Saxon have a foothold in this land
53:00Father
53:00The Britons that survived the raid have been brought to the palace
53:03I'm needed
53:13You cannot deliver your people from this threat
53:16If you throw your own life away, Aurelius
53:20A king must sometimes make terrible choices
53:25It was foolish
53:27I know
53:29In truth, I'm not ready for what is ahead
53:32The battle against Forting was
53:34Short
53:36Decisive
53:39I have little enough experience with war
53:41That is abundantly clear
53:43In truth
53:46It was your daughter who saved my life
53:50Yes
53:53She has a way of doing that
54:04You showed great courage today
54:07And a great love for the people you would rule
54:11And my God tells me there is no greater love
54:16Than the willingness to die for others
54:26Keep that up
54:27And you might just become high king after all
54:39Beer
54:43A man of his word is King Taldrigg
54:46Two more Western kings have pledged their fealty to Aurelius
54:49The warbands ride eastward as we speak
54:52Aurelius' legend grows
54:54As does your army
54:56Now you must return to your brother
54:58Aurelius and I ride north to Gothay
55:00We must ride alone
55:03I have not proven myself to be a pleasant enough traveling companion?
55:06Utho, you have proven yourself a cunning strategist
55:09And fiercely loyal to your brother
55:12But you must take caution
55:14For your loyalty could be your undoing
55:19More riddles
55:19Perhaps when we don't see each other
55:21We can pick up from where we left off
55:23I do admit I did underestimate you, Stuart
55:28I still think you should be a flog for abattance
55:53It is not safe for you, Augustine, at all
55:56There must be another way
56:04There is no other way
56:27There is no other way
56:28There is no other way
56:30There is no other way
57:20I will set off for once for the Saxon's come.
57:24That is what you wish.
57:26It is.
57:28What the hell?
57:30Wait till you.
57:55A gift.
57:57A gift.
57:58For Angus.
58:14Safe travels, my son.
58:17Here we go.
58:34And now this is a october.
58:37I have a gift.
58:37This is a gift.
58:37I have a gift.
58:37So I will get a gift.
58:37Do you have a gift?
58:38I got a gift.
58:40I will have a gift.
58:41Have a gift.
58:41You
