00:02This was your mother's panda.
00:05Khan gave it to you, didn't he?
00:06He did the glorious class victory in Apatelra in Morning Nestle.
00:10In all my life I've been taught to fear the Mari spirits.
00:12This underly magic is what Montfort used so many years ago
00:16to bring death and destruction to our lands.
00:18This archivist, you say he's an expert on Mari.
00:21Could he get this thing out of me?
00:23You'll need a guide.
00:25Joran is a good guide.
00:26You like books, young lady?
00:28Hunter!
00:31She can meet me.
00:36What's going on?
00:37Payment on delivery.
00:40Hunter!
00:41Mickey!
00:42He will see you now.
01:01I'm Thomas.
01:03Featherwell Rye.
01:05Master of this castle.
01:08And known to some as the Archivist.
01:12Welcome, new Mari.
01:14I was dragged into a carriage by two of your goons.
01:19Did they hurt you?
01:20I regret a cesspool like the heretics market is not a place for subtlety or manners.
01:26Or common sense.
01:28I've been on my way to you for weeks.
01:30You didn't need to hire brutes to compel me.
01:34I understand your friend, Hunter.
01:36My guide and I had an agreement to get me to you.
01:42Well, evidently it's worked out.
01:44Just as you intended.
01:48May I?
01:53You can count the dots.
01:57They're all there.
02:02Forgive me, I never thought I would see this in my lifetime.
02:06A new Mari.
02:10May I ask what gifts it grants you?
02:12There's been so many stories.
02:14Hardly gifts.
02:16People have died.
02:18And lived.
02:19I understand.
02:28My hospitality has been appalling.
02:30You must be exhausted.
02:32Jaggery.
02:33Please show our honoured guest to her room.
02:38Very good, Rai.
02:40Young Joran left this for the lady.
03:10I'm so glad to ask theścian eternal apartment.
03:13But I lack all of a money plant and a monthly mart convinced the sacrifice.
03:18Really?
03:19Next thing we have washed himself today.
03:20To the kitchen.
03:22Get shut up.
04:34The rye left this for you, my lady.
04:44It's all right.
04:46Your mayor, is it?
05:16Call me Wren.
05:18The rye saved us from him and from the evil of the spirits.
05:21The spirits can heal as well.
05:24I've seen it.
05:28I've done it.
05:31No one ever taught us the Numari could do that.
05:35I've never heard such a thing, to be sure.
05:38Now, we shouldn't keep the rye waiting.
05:42How old do you know him?
05:46My family have served the rye and his family for many years.
05:50The whole castle was once as grand as the Leith Hall.
05:54Times may be hard, but he's always treated us well.
05:59He's a good man, so he is.
06:15I trust that the dress is to your liking.
06:18Few have seen my little collection.
06:24Needless to say, the K'nath would not approve.
06:27Fortunately, the castle has some interesting original features.
06:47After you.
07:03The K'nath would not approve.
07:04The K'nath would not approve.
07:21The K'nath would not approve.
07:54Where did all this come from?
07:57Collected over the years.
07:59It all started in Helgoth, the Parai's still teacher of that cursed place, I assume.
08:05The insurrection, they defied the Garnath.
08:10Helgoth lay on the edge of my father's estate.
08:12The entire Third Army swept through it to the rage that had not been seen since the Seven Year War.
08:18My earliest memory was seeing the sky turn black with smoke.
08:22Afterwards, my father took me to the ruins.
08:25Everything he built, destroyed.
08:30Such senseless waste.
08:33And all those people killed?
08:36There was a woman.
08:39They say executed by the Garnath Master.
08:43She must have been someone of note.
08:45I saw her body.
08:46She died clutching a child's toy.
08:49A lathwolf beautifully whittled.
08:53When my father wasn't looking, I took it.
08:59And that was the first artifact of my collection.
09:02But that was all you saw.
09:04A treasure to be hoarded.
09:06Not hoarded.
09:08Preserved.
09:11When the ruins and the bones of the dead are gone, I could still hold in my hand the last
09:17memory of Helgoth's revolt.
09:20Learn from it.
09:24Knowledge is power, Wren.
09:27The Garnath know this.
09:29That's why they control the truth so tightly.
09:32And where is this treasure now?
09:35I have others that are far greater.
09:44The Battle of Naphthena.
09:46Where Lord Montfort of Dalmoth and the Twelve Families took their final stand against the King's army.
09:53They say that Lord Montfort conjured a storm that lasted ten days and ten nights.
09:58A storm.
10:02The power to control the elements themselves.
10:10This is a fragment of his armor.
10:18The Garnath's glorious victory at Nath-tena.
10:22The 52nd year of the Griffin.
10:39It was a hundred and twelve years ago.
10:43A century is but a blink of an eye for Numaari.
10:45Of course.
10:48Even the Numaari and I were incredibly long-lived.
10:59device is added.
10:59The Garnath retrouved.
10:59Can't stand a lagmi.
10:59And maybe see youle
11:00with a perfect reminder.
11:24You are as one, newly born in the light of Nerev.
11:30She has called you to a marvelous tower of the Hollow Sea.
11:37You are Numbari in the light of Nerev.
11:41In the light of Nerev.
12:13If you're bonding with the spirit was an accident, may I ask, how did you come by a Nerev pendant?
12:25This is all very impressive, but I didn't come here to learn about the Mari.
12:30I came here to get it out of me.
12:33The first new Mari in a century.
12:36And you would reject that honor.
12:38Can you do it?
12:40Because if not, I thank you for your hospitality, but I need to leave.
12:45Here.
12:50The pride of my collection.
12:54All rescued from the Karnath's book burnings during the cleansing.
12:58Reading tutors are not easy to come by these days.
13:01It has taken me years to learn this skill.
13:05Although there are texts here that I still cannot fathom.
13:10I believe that this is a spell book.
13:14Although it defies all my attempts at interpretation.
13:19The language is just so ancient.
13:23I'm told that it predates the North Kings.
13:27But these diagrams here...
13:29Rupcadern.
13:32The sundering of a host from Amari.
13:35You can read it.
13:40Nathwolf's claw steeped in boiling salt water over a flame of Ica wood beneath Nardev's tears shall they be riven.
13:52This is it.
13:52This is how to get it out.
13:55Nardev's tears.
13:58The full moon?
14:00Three weeks.
14:06Rookahail.
14:07The bonding of Amari with a host.
14:12Eye of Nirroth, culled with silver.
14:16Set aflame its dust of the moor.
14:20Wren, I've devoted my life to learning about the Numari.
14:24I did not seek Aretha merely to lock the spirit away.
14:30As a Numari, with all the gifts that it would bestow,
14:34I might repair all that the Karnath have broken.
14:38Do me the honour.
14:40Allow me to take this burden from you.
14:42I'm sorry.
14:44I'm sorry.
14:46I'm sorry.
14:47I'm sorry.
14:47I'm sorry.
14:48I'm sorry.
14:49I'm sorry.
