01:18He will be punished
01:22What word for your father?
01:24My father is dead
01:30What do you want?
01:33My father is dead and I am his heir
01:36High King of the Britons
01:42And yet you ride here
01:43Unannounced
01:45Unannounced
01:46No honor guard
01:49No war band
01:50No war band
01:50I did not know I needed a war band at my back to meet with an ally
01:54You do if you're going to watch
01:56You do if you're going to watch in shit
01:59The sons of Constance have murdered my father
02:03And now they claim his crown
02:07And you want me to help you
02:08And you want me to help you take it back
02:11They will not be content until they have all of Britain in their grasp
02:16All of Britain
02:17All of Britain
02:17Even now
02:18Even now
02:20They turn their eyes east
02:20To the Saxon coast
02:30Let us
02:32March against these usurpers
02:34Before they march against you
02:39Why do I need you?
02:44You swore to uphold my family's claim
02:47And my father let you settle these lands
02:51That
02:53Our pact was sealed in blood
02:57Is to be honored
02:58He will be held to it
03:13Son of Ortegen is right
03:16A pact sealed in blood
03:18Is to be honored
03:21None to death
03:29None to death
03:31None to death
03:43None to death
03:47None to death
04:09Hail the Fisher King.
04:14Merlin.
04:18Merlin!
04:52And that's when I saw him.
04:55Sat on a rock by the riverbed, alone, shining as bright as the dawn.
05:04And we are most grateful to you, Peleus.
05:06Even as our hopes waned, you did not give up these many years.
05:13My lady.
05:17And you, my holy friend.
05:19How did you come to be my grandson's company after all this time?
05:23Providence, great King, the Divine Hand.
05:29Merlin found me prisoner of High King Vortigen.
05:33Prisoner?
05:36A king who holds hostage, a servant of the Most High, gambles with his life.
05:42Gamble Vortigen lost.
05:46King Avalak, I have been remiss.
05:48May I present to you Uther, second son of Constance and his older brother Aurelius.
05:55Sons of Constance?
05:56I see.
05:58Forgive me.
05:59My brother and I were allowed to interrupt your happy reunion.
06:02Aurelius has defeated the usurper of Vortigen.
06:05He is by right of lineage and victory, High King of Enos Pridin.
06:11If I do not fall to the axe with Saxon first.
06:12All the ambitions of a petty King.
06:20My brother surely meant no disrespect, King Avalak.
06:26And yet he speaks truly.
06:29This land is in a welter of confusion.
06:32There are more kings than sheep.
06:35More princes than crows on a battlefield.
06:40All seeking to snatch what they can, when they can, without a care for who suffers.
06:47Until this island is ruled by one who wields both justice and mercy, there will be no peace.
06:56Aurelius' life is in danger until the kings of Britain recognize his claim.
07:02It is my hope he could find sanctuary here, while I ride to rally what friends we have left.
07:08While we ride to rally your friends.
07:11Uther.
07:11To ensure Merlin is not remiss pushing a claim in other courts.
07:19Right, Merlin?
07:20Very well, Uther.
07:22If you prefer knights in the saddle to the comfort of Avalak's palace.
07:26You will not be staying then.
07:30I'm sorry, Mother.
07:32My people have seen enough of war and death.
07:37The High King of Britain will be safe within these walls.
07:43To a future of peace.
07:51I'm going to the house.
08:15To a future of peace.
08:18War 3P!
08:31You fuss over me like a child.
08:34Well, other men call me immortal.
08:57A Fisher King's sword.
09:00Your sword.
09:06I thought it lost.
09:10Yet it has been here, waiting for you.
09:15The sword of a high king.
09:21Aurelius has a sword, the sword of Britain.
09:24I do not offer it to Aurelius.
09:48I do not offer it to Aurelius.
09:54I am sorry, Mother.
09:59I cannot accept it.
10:01Whatever the future may hold, I cannot take up that sword again.
10:17Then I will pray you have the strength to keep your vow.
10:26I wish you were not leaving so soon.
10:31Besides, the fish are always on their best behavior when you are here.
10:39What was it like, Merlin?
10:41To be insane.
10:43To be alone with God.
10:47Is that who you think I was alone with?
10:50Who else?
10:53I would dearly love to spend but a moment in my Lord's presence.
10:58You are fortunate among men, Merlin.
11:04Go.
11:05I have been greedy with your time.
11:08We will discuss these things again when you return.
11:14You fear for your sins, Grandfather.
11:17For surely your sins are no greater than any other man's.
11:24I had forgotten how much you see with those golden eyes, Orc.
11:31Yet in truth, my sins are too numerous to count.
11:37They gave life to Morgir.
11:49I have seen her, Morgir.
11:55In the fire, in the stars.
12:02I do not know if God was with me in Caliphon all these many years, Grandfather.
12:07But I know Morgir was.
12:12Trust in Yesu, Orc.
12:15He is the only hope for men like us.
12:22If hope we have.
12:23I know Morgir, but I know Morgir is the only hope for men.
12:53I know Morgir's family.
12:56I know.
13:21Sir.
13:22Tell me about this place, Meridenham.
13:27Built by the Romans in the heart of a plentiful valley.
13:31Not far from the sea.
13:33Your steward has a nasty habit of speaking on your behalf, man.
13:37If you were mine, I would have him flogged for impertinence.
13:43Perias speaks as he serves, of his own free will.
13:47So you would have him believe.
13:50Are you suggesting the Emerus has me spellbound?
13:54Your words, boy? Not mine.
13:58You surprised me, Uther.
13:59I didn't take you for one who believed in magic.
14:03When a man catches the gaze of a beautiful woman, is that not a form of magic?
14:09Or when a king through cunning and deceit rests fealty from his people,
14:15is that not a sorcery of a kind?
14:18I know nothing. I know what you mean.
14:37I see you. I see you.
14:40I know that I'm here. I can't find you.
14:42It's a mess.
14:44It's a mess.
14:45It's a mess.
14:45Find your daughter.
14:47You only hate the world.
14:49Why do you hesitate?
14:50It's a mess.
14:51You know what you must do.
14:53Master.
14:56What is it?
15:20I'm going to keep it coming.
15:21You're just to find me.
15:23I love you.
15:37You're just going to keep it coming.
15:40I don't know.
15:41I'm going to keep it coming.
15:43You're so happy.
15:45You're right, man.
15:47You're right.
15:56Delightful place.
16:10What is your business here?
16:11I've come to seek a home I once knew.
16:15What home is that?
16:18The last time I was here, Pendara and the Red Sword was king.
16:26Nothing.
16:30That's a minute, ones. See to their horses.
16:45The same raid that took Maelus took the town.
16:49Tifax, my father tried to say what he could, but there wasn't much left.
16:54Not since the beginning of our troubles.
16:57The same story is told throughout these lands.
16:59Yes. I fear greater threat is coming.
17:03Yes, it's a different world since...
17:06...since you've been away.
17:09Will you sit at our table, my lord?
17:14Of course, Connie.
17:19Why does your friend the king said?
17:22Because Merlin is the rightful king of Maradona.
17:29Allow me to fill your cup, my lord.
17:34Give me my cup.
17:37Give me my cup.
17:54This beast led me deep into the hills, but I could not give up the chase.
18:02These days, it's rare when I get occasions to knock an arrow.
18:06A fine prize, Merig at Taldry.
18:10Sun, meet our guests.
18:13Uther, Peleus, and Merth and Emrys.
18:26I must say, the brewer's art has reached new heights since I last held a cup such as this.
18:31This draught is worthy of any king.
18:33You shall have a better bit to take with you.
18:35Oh, yes, when you've concluded your business here.
18:42What is your business?
18:44Perhaps our business is best discussed in the light of day.
18:47We are here to gain a support for my brother, Aurelius, the High King of Britain.
18:55High King?
18:56Vortigern has already claimed that title.
19:00Vortigern no longer has need of it.
19:08Well, I congratulate you on your victory.
19:13Over an old man already exhausted and sore beset.
19:18The greater challenge lies ahead.
19:20The Saxons.
19:22And a host of lesser kings who think themselves eminently qualified to bear the ground.
19:29And they'll have no choice but to fall in line.
19:37Won't they?
19:41Hear me, Taldrigg.
19:43Saxon Hengist has assembled the greatest war host ever seen in the Island of the Mighty.
19:48And before the summer is through, he means to take the throne.
19:53And he will have it.
19:54If we are too busy squabbling amongst ourselves to take up arms against him.
20:00We have arms.
20:01We have forces.
20:03And men who can use them.
20:05Mayurik.
20:06Am I not the commander of our army?
20:08Yes, an honor you insist on squandering at every turn.
20:11What choice do I have when you all would tie by hand?
20:12Silence!
20:20The day grows long and I am not a young man.
20:26If we may presume upon your hospitality a while longer.
20:31Yes, I shall bear some rules for you and your men.
20:34Perhaps the Emerus would prefer to stay in his old quarters.
20:38The King's quarters.
20:38The King's quarters.
20:42Yes, should he wish to.
20:44We insist.
20:45Thank you, my lady.
21:16Martha, when we had King done.
21:18Martha, when we had King done.
21:27Martha, when we had King done.
21:38Do you take me for a fool?
21:42I do not.
21:43Then perhaps you should stop treating me as one.
21:47I have promised to raise an army for your brother, Uther.
21:50How I conduct my own affairs is not your concern.
21:53You may have swayed my brother.
21:55Your powers of persuasion will not work with me.
21:58Of that, I have no doubt.
22:00I have no doubt.
22:01I don't know.
22:30I don't know.
22:49I don't know.
22:50Hurry in.
22:56There you are, my darling.
22:58You must hurry along to your studies with Kallius.
23:01I don't want to study.
23:03You must, if you are to advance in your learning.
23:07Remember, Urian.
23:09Your mother knows what's best for you.
23:15Off with you.
23:26No one sees our house, Frank.
23:28Or our aid.
23:29All because we live on these distant, godforsaken shores.
23:33The greater part of Britain could burn, and we'd been on the wiser.
23:35Father, let it burn.
23:37What difference does it make?
23:39We are alone and undefended, Father.
23:41Should we not seek alliances for the welfare of our kingdom, if we were to appeal to Vortigone?
23:46Vortigone is dead.
23:51His tower fell to the sons of Constance not two weeks ago.
23:55How do you know this?
23:57No doubt Aurelius will claim the throne for himself.
24:00The soil of these lands is soaked in the blood of would-be kings.
24:04Perhaps we should consider pledging our support to Aurelius.
24:12My dear lord, have you forgotten the deal we made with the Saxon chief?
24:19How could I forget, mother, when I so strongly opposed our alliance with those savages?
24:25Is Hengist a savage?
24:29He fights for the interests of his kind, just as Aurelius does.
24:33But we are Britons.
24:35We should support our people.
24:37Are they?
24:38Our people.
24:40Only a moment ago you were bemoaning the fact that we were all but forgotten by them.
24:46But what do I know of these things?
24:49I'm merely a wife.
24:51And a mother.
24:54Still, I cannot help but wonder if there is not a greater strategic advantage for you
25:00in the current arrangement.
25:04You could be a most valuable ally to Hengist, to Saxon.
25:10The future is Saxon.
25:21I trust you stand well with her.
25:24Sword who always sleeps with one eye opens.
25:26That sounds inconvenient.
25:28It's not as inconvenient as a knife in the back.
25:30Come, we're all friends here.
25:32Not many in any way there came in the guise of a friend, no?
25:35Ah, my Lord Merthin.
25:38I wonder if I might have a word with you.
25:42In private.
25:44Of course.
25:47Do keep Uther out of trouble.
25:58Shall we seek out a morsel to eat?
26:20Watch it.
26:21Cheers.
26:35Cup of your famous mead, friend.
26:37We have no mead here.
26:39Only wine.
26:40Then a cup of your famous wine.
26:47They water it down, the Roman way.
26:52But in good measure, it serves its purpose.
27:06It's the war-burned of meridunums in all its days drinking, rather than training.
27:12But you see, we are training.
27:14Right here, in the darkness of this hovel.
27:18With nothing to slake our thirst, but this sorry excuse for wine, eh?
27:24To your safe return, after such a long absence.
27:36Forgive me if I know not how to receive you.
27:39This is your realm, and rightly so, but I have been king here these many years.
27:43And your father and his father before you?
27:45Yes.
27:47And your son is next in line to the throne.
27:51Mayeric is more interested in hunting and drinking than in the affairs of our kingdom.
27:55And yet he is your battle chief.
27:59It is a wonder how he has time for leisure, given the frequency of the raids.
28:07Yours is a fruitful land, Taldrigg.
28:10Yet your fields are stripped, the walls are broken.
28:13Provisions are strained even at the king's table.
28:17But at whose hand do you suffer this injustice?
28:21Not the Saxon, surely.
28:23For you would not have lived to tell the tale.
28:30Mocant to the Belgae.
28:31He's been bleeding the neighboring lands of grain and cattle for the better part of a year.
28:36Like a ravenous bear, Tentum.
28:38Slumbering through the long winter.
28:41Like what?
28:41He knows war with the Saxon is coming.
28:46And he intends to wait it out with ample provisions to spare.
28:52And you allow him to take from you.
28:53His men outnumber us two to one.
28:55So you let your people starve.
28:57I am not willing to lead my people to destruction.
29:00It is because you are not willing to lead them that the destruction is at hand.
29:04We cannot fight him.
29:07But fight him we would.
29:08Hey!
29:09We'd rather suffer the sword opposing that snake.
29:12Now let him take what's right for the hours!
29:14Yeah!
29:16You've told your father as much?
29:18My father's too proud to heed our counsel.
29:22I'm ashamed of him.
29:24I admit it.
29:28I saw no other way.
29:34I often question whether I'm worthy to wear the talk.
29:39If I am a king,
29:43I'm not a very good one.
29:47Well, your father must have good reason to let this insult go unanswered.
29:52No king would suffer such humiliation, my lady.
29:56But whatever his reason,
29:57it would not matter for long.
29:59My family has ruled this kingdom for the last three generations.
30:04Now Mertham returns to claim his throne,
30:07and we can hardly stand in his way.
30:10He is but one man.
30:18Do you not know?
30:33Painted by a fairy woman many years ago.
30:37So the story is told.
30:40They say Mertham slew seventy men with his own hands within these very gates.
30:46Like a thay...
30:48Like a thay, he slew five hundred.
30:53No man is capable of such a thing.
30:56No mortal man.
30:58They say when the Arwen falls upon him,
31:00he is given strength from heaven.
31:02The world stops.
31:05None can stand before him.
31:09I can assure you, friends,
31:12that the only thing that matters in battle is brute strength.
31:17Magic is for druids and poor women.
31:23Perhaps.
31:26But he is legend in these lands.
31:29He is more than a king.
31:33He is nearly an otherworldly being.
31:38He will take the talk from my father
31:40and declare himself high king before he is through.
31:45Neither you, nor the Saxons, nor all the armies of Britain and Amorica
31:49can hinder him.
31:52Unless we stop him here
31:55and now.
31:58No.
32:15You must listen to me, Luthor.
32:18Out of my way.
32:20Steward.
32:23I bested you once before.
32:27Don't make me do it again.
32:28You had that little bit of a surprise, you fool.
32:31Not this time.
32:33He thought that was my only surprise.
32:53You were attacking an old man.
33:04He's not a brute.
33:08Oh, no.
33:10Oh, no.
33:18That's...
33:20That's...
33:20That's...
33:21That...
33:33Stop this, Uther.
33:35You risk ruining the Emirates' work.
33:37That is exactly what I did to do.
34:08Stand up, King Tawdry.
34:16You are right that you failed your people.
34:20You have let fear rule your heart and govern your actions, and I do indeed have every
34:25right to reclaim my kingship and take back what is lawfully mine.
34:31But I deem it best to let my claim lapse.
34:36Too many years have passed for me to take back my throne.
34:41Myrthen will not be king again in Maradunum, provided you pledge your support to Aurelius.
34:54You have my word.
35:05Are you quite well, Uther?
35:06Just short of wrath, it's all.
35:14My warband will not fight for Aurelius when Morkhan threatens our arms.
35:18Well, then it's a good thing we have the Battle Chief of Britain to bring the Belgae to heel.
35:25I'm afraid I must decline.
35:28Uther?
35:29I will join a fight against the Morkhan.
35:33However, only as a simple soldier.
35:38A cunning strategy, Uther, if we survive it.
35:42There's nothing like a brisk ride to revive a man.
35:46The moral violence.
35:47But now, there's nothing like a dud in the world.
35:55Let me get one.
35:59Let me get a bet from the dead.
36:05But it's hard for you.
36:09Let me get one.
36:10It's hard for you.
36:13Step 1 in 2 in 3, 2 in 3.
36:15Step 2 in 4.
36:15Asu, receive your own with mercy.
36:21Who are they?
36:24Britons.
36:26From the villages along our eastern border.
36:33The Saxon move south and west,
36:37killing and plundering.
36:39They rarely leave survivors,
36:41but when they do, we do what we can to lend aid.
36:43Care for the dying.
36:47And you could prevent the death.
36:49You did what you could.
36:52No.
36:53No, no, you could have fought.
36:56What strength you think we have is an illusion.
37:00Each year, our numbers decline.
37:04But a child has been born to us since.
37:10Our people are not long for this world.
37:14You have weapons like none have seen.
37:16All matters not the fiercest Saxon blade.
37:19As king, my duty is to my people.
37:25I cannot fight your war for you, Aurelius.
37:28No matter how just the course.
37:33We are too few.
37:44Where are the Saxon now?
37:47Where are the Saxon now?
38:01And the fine king you will make my son.
38:07But, who are we, if not people of our word?
38:14I say, Angus makes his men fight to the death for his amusement.
38:21You must not believe everything you hear.
38:23Aurelius, on the other hand, is of noble blood.
38:28A diplomat.
38:29Lot has a point.
38:31Is Aurelius not more fit to lead?
38:37Who knows who will rule these lands when all is said and done.
38:44But if it is your desire to break faith with the Saxons, then he'll might oppose you.
38:50But I admit, I do worry how he will receive you, if word comes to him of your dealings with
38:57Hengist.
38:58Yes.
39:00Yes, we must not have him taking you for a traitor.
39:03A traitor?
39:04I had not thought of that.
39:07Surely anyone suspected of conspiring with the Saxons would be shown no mercy.
39:13I'm sure you'll make the right decision.
39:29I'm sure you'll make the right decision.
39:30Pray to God, Vernon.
39:33It isn't much of a plan.
39:36My God hears the prayers of all who call on his name.
39:44Something happened to your eye?
40:10You would ride to the village's aid alone.
40:14I'll try.
40:17You are a good man, son of Constance.
40:19But foolish.
40:21What would you have me do?
40:23What kind of king would I be if I let my people be slaughtered?
40:26A king who knows his limitations.
40:29There will be other battles, Aurelius.
40:32You are one man.
40:34You don't even know the country.
40:40I'm not above asking you to put me in the right direction.
40:47I have only one thing to offer my people.
40:51Everything.
41:00Our soldiers cannot ride with you to Rianfa.
41:04But...
41:06Perhaps they will escort their princess on a ride through our easternmost holdings.
41:09My lady...
41:10But we cannot leave our territory, Aurelius.

41:15You do it alone.
41:17Our home...
41:45The
41:59Stop there!
42:10What is your business here?
42:12You Belgae grow fat from the grain plundered from the fields of Maradona!
42:18And?
42:19And we're taking it back!
42:28No one need die today!
42:31Tell your king Merdan Emerus demands an audience!
42:34My king is not so easily summoned!
42:37I do not intend to make it easy!
42:39I can't believe you!
42:43Ah!
42:44Don't turn back!
42:46Oh, my God.
43:16Oh, my God.
43:46Tell my brother I died in a noble death.
43:50God, God!
44:16We're not a killer thing.
