00:00:05In a time before this, I saw a land divided, its king dying, and its people tired of war.
00:00:17It's dukes, lords, and warrior knights, all searching desperately for peace.
00:00:28Following the ancient law, it was decreed that on the death of the old king, the virgin daughters of each
00:00:39warring lord and lady would come to the forest of the sacred cave over the first snows fell.
00:00:50There, a wife for the king's son would be chosen by the high priestess of Mithras, keeper of the sun.
00:01:02According to time-honored ritual, each of you shall be cleansed of evil.
00:01:12And from that moment on, you are consecrated twofold.
00:01:19Once to the king, for who you may be chosen to marry, and once to me, for I will now
00:01:30be your sacred guardian, until the new king's bride is chosen.
00:01:43The ritual has ended.
00:01:47You are now consecrated to the king, as if each of you was his wife.
00:01:53I will pray for your guidance.
00:01:56Soon the king's delegation will arrive, and take back the chosen one to be with.
00:02:03You will pray as well.
00:02:06Pray to the old gods, and the new.
00:02:11Pray for the king, who was once a prince, and the one woman among you, who shall become his queen,
00:02:19and the others his court.
00:02:26Let's pray and hear, we shall lose.
00:02:30Ladies and gentlemen, you will say, we shall be given the only answer.
00:02:34We shall be given the same one to the throne.
00:02:36Keast well.
00:02:37Open your kingdom, open your kingdom.
00:02:39At this time, we shall be given the kingdom.

00:02:46FADE of the
00:02:46final of the devil and yup. Who shall
00:02:52continue to first swear by you?
00:03:04Amen.
00:03:23Give me the power to keep them safe during this time of their consecration,
00:03:29for these are dark and difficult times.
00:03:32One shall be a queen, and the rest will be her court.
00:03:37And by your decree, then peace will rule the land.
00:04:15I will not be able to get the power to keep them safe.
00:04:17I will not be able to get the power to keep them safe.
00:04:41Oh, my God.
00:04:49This is for my feast.
00:05:19This is for my feast.
00:05:24Oh, my God.
00:05:28Oh, my God.
00:05:31Oh, my God.
00:05:33Oh, my God.
00:05:36Sheena!
00:05:38Dita!
00:05:58Oh, my God.
00:06:32Oh, my God.
00:06:35Oh, my God.
00:06:41Oh, my God.
00:06:58Oh, my God.
00:07:08Rest, my child.
00:07:11Go to the gods in peace now.
00:07:15I will find your companions and see them safe.
00:07:18I promise you.
00:07:34Oh, my God.
00:07:38Oh, my God.
00:07:43Oh, my God.
00:08:05Oh, shit.
00:08:25Oh, my God.
00:08:47Oh, my God.
00:08:59King's bastard.
00:09:13There is no need for any of you to bow.
00:09:15No, I am not your better.
00:09:18Perhaps not our better, but our only hope.
00:09:22Unless the gods have deserted us as well as the king.
00:09:27We are united by our common fate.
00:09:31Each one of us has lost a daughter.
00:09:33And with violence, Lord Roland's daughter killed.
00:09:38There was no reason for it.
00:09:41The law is clear.
00:09:43The new king can take any one of our daughters for his bride.
00:09:48And he has the same right to choose one over another.
00:09:53Then why take all of them?
00:09:55Perhaps he intends to hold them to ransom.
00:10:00This is madness.
00:10:02The old king was a man of truth.
00:10:05Yes.
00:10:06And honor.
00:10:08His heir apparently is evil to his father's good.
00:10:12He wouldn't be the first prince to turn on his king.
00:10:15We have come to you seeking answers.
00:10:18But I am a priestess of the light, not a sorcerer or a seer.
00:10:23We do not come to you for magic spells.
00:10:26Would you claim our daughters?
00:10:42Put this on and say nothing.
00:10:45Nothing.
00:11:00You said the king's men were seen.
00:11:04This evil is his doing.
00:11:06Of that I have no doubt.
00:11:08What would you have us do then?
00:11:10Attack the king at his castle?
00:11:11He has an army larger than all our forces put together.
00:11:15Not to mention the mine at the foot of his castle keep.
00:11:19He has enough silver to buy all the mercenaries he needs.
00:11:23There is no way for our daughters to be rescued.
00:11:28You will be rewarded for your silence.
00:11:35Or you shall be flogged if you break it.
00:12:05Men bought for money can be bribed.
00:12:08And without that mine, the king has no power.
00:12:11You intend to take it from him?
00:12:13I intend to negotiate with him first.
00:12:16Perhaps convince him of his folly.
00:12:19And how will you accomplish that?
00:12:23Set your hand and seal to a document that makes me your proxy in this affair.
00:12:28Then I will have the power of each and every one of you
00:12:31to shield me from whatever evil awaits me at the king's hand.
00:12:41Go with God and all are gratitude.
00:12:47Yes, I will.
00:13:07Who are you?
00:13:09My name is Nora from the village of the Stone Chapel.
00:13:21And certainly no princess.
00:13:25Who dressed you this way?
00:13:27I don't know her, your highness.
00:13:31But she said I would be rewarded.
00:13:34You were lied to.
00:13:36I know that now.
00:13:38Spare me.
00:13:39I meant no harm.
00:13:43You were wise not to try and deceive me.
00:13:48Hide her.
00:13:56The little princesses have arrived at last.
00:14:00Yes, your highness.
00:14:01And the high priestess.
00:14:03What of her?
00:14:05She wasn't there, your highness.
00:14:08Oh, well.
00:14:10I shouldn't complain.
00:14:13The eight princesses are perfect price.
00:14:17With them and the silver from the mine,
00:14:20nothing will stand in the way of my dear brother.
00:14:25You did bring me eight.
00:14:27Didn't you?
00:14:30Or is it only seven?
00:14:37Seven.
00:14:38Seven.
00:14:38Well.
00:14:40How many?
00:14:43Since this one is neither princess nor virgin.
00:14:48Seven only.
00:14:51How did you know?
00:14:53Did you really think you could fool me with your little ploy?
00:14:57What happened?
00:15:00One died, your highness.
00:15:02Died?
00:15:03Or was killed by an Oberzeul's blade?
00:15:07Which of them was it?
00:15:08Or should I guess?
00:15:10Or should I guess?
00:15:11Eleanor.
00:15:14Rowling's daughter?
00:15:16Yes.
00:15:17Your highness.
00:15:19I thought as much.
00:15:23But your blade was too greedy.
00:15:29The fifth time that I promised you.
00:15:32You wanted it now without waiting for it.
00:15:35To come to you as it should have.
00:15:38Might have.
00:15:39But we'll know more.
00:15:42It was an accident, your highness.
00:15:47Your dagger.
00:15:52Is this what you killed her with?
00:15:55Yes.
00:15:57Your highness.
00:16:00Then no.
00:16:02It has cost you everything I promised.
00:16:07And perhaps more.
00:16:12How shall I punish you?
00:16:15Slash your pretty cheek?
00:16:19Or slice open your throat from ear to ear?
00:16:24Such is the reason why I should not do one or the other of these things.
00:16:29Or do you think I will spare you just because your whore of a mother whelped you from my father's
00:16:35seat?
00:16:37But if that's your reason, think of a matter.
00:16:43Your thinking is far too slow.
00:16:49Count to five aloud.
00:16:52Your five last seconds of your paltry life.
00:16:59One.
00:17:01One.
00:17:04Two.
00:17:06Three.
00:17:08Four.
00:17:11Five.
00:17:13One.
00:17:16Two.
00:17:22Three.
00:17:25Two.
00:17:26It is the truth.
00:17:29Two.
00:17:30One man's truth is another's lie.
00:17:34And truth or not.
00:17:37You won't see Rowland's castle with your penman flying above it.
00:17:43You would steal my legacy?
00:17:45Not a legacy.
00:17:47Merely a traitor's payment.
00:17:55I could have paid a tenth as much to someone else to have the poison put into our father's wine.
00:18:03I offered you Rowland's land from Pity, and I take them back with spite.
00:18:09Assemble the seven in the castle. I will see them when I'm ready.
00:18:13Yes, your highness.
00:18:26Trust me.
00:18:50So, this is the stuff that queens are made of.
00:18:53I don't believe it. My brother deserves better than any one of you for a bride.
00:19:06I don't think I'm ready.
00:19:13Alright.
00:19:15I have to wait.
00:19:15Narrow is a boy.
00:19:18You will breathe no air.
00:19:21I'd wait or anything on it.
00:19:24Send them all to the mine for a while.
00:19:27Break them.
00:19:28of their royal ways.
00:19:37Except for her.
00:19:39She might do for the king.
00:19:42If not for my brother,
00:19:45then for me.
00:19:48She had spirits in the cave.
00:19:51Perhaps she will breed true to it.
00:19:55I'll choose the lover who first takes my honor, lady.
00:19:58Choice has nothing to do with it.
00:20:03Let her think for a while about her future,
00:20:05and then break her spirit.
00:20:09Guards!
00:20:25Oh, yes.
00:20:27My brother's wedding.
00:20:29He really will expect me to attend.
00:20:33Especially since he's about to become a father as well.
00:20:38We all meet again, you can be assured of that.
00:20:42But brotherly love, and duty calls.
00:20:45So I must be off.
00:20:51Since my soldiers' urges cannot be trusted,
00:20:54see to it that our royal honor is secured.
00:20:58But make sure they can work where they can see my riches.
00:21:02Hmm?
00:21:05Let's go.
00:21:08Oh!
00:21:12Oh!
00:21:16Oh!
