00:12Agus Viorel!
00:20Don't be afraid. We'll get out.
00:28One left. This should heal you.
00:36You've got this.
00:43I knew it. I knew you could.
00:46Are you alright? You gave me a heart attack.
01:01So that's how it is.
01:03I'm sorry, tutor. He never loved you. It was always me.
01:09You should have seen it coming.
01:11All this time? Then why, why didn't you go to her at the summoning?
01:15Go to her? You're her tutor, Robin. The Headmaster's favorite. She stood only because of you.
01:24How could you? I gave you everything. I would have died for you, and this is what I get?
01:31How can you say that, tutor? If you hadn't told him about the seal, none of this would have happened.
01:39The Headmaster.
01:40The Headmaster.
01:57The Headmaster.
02:00I didn't do anything.
02:03I didn't do anything.
02:06I didn't do anything.
02:09me this much every touch every word it was all just to humiliate me and I was so obsessed with
02:15him even the professors who cared suffered because of me Merlin if I had a do-over I would never
02:21choose him I'm back the day of the binding I'm Rowan Ashford top of the magical research department
02:42headmaster thorns adopted daughter in my past life everyone thought the strongest
02:48Petraindrian would answer me I believed it too Rowan first in every exam the year's finest
02:55the strongest patroness should answer her call first
03:05what's a freshman doing here isn't that Rowan's tutin she's the half-blood from the muggle world
03:11right
03:19wait
03:19wait the bird wants the rookie Serafina you've barely touched a wand your magic's unstable
03:26and even if Icebird likes you now you'll never control him
03:31tutor I know I'm not your match but I've never seen anything like this in the muggle world
03:43they were already a pair I was just the villain in their way
03:49it's my turn
03:50Rowan don't be stupid that bird is a legend
03:53you're the best we've got that snake is trash it's not worthy of you
04:04I choose this serpent
04:11she's actually walking away from the Icebird
04:14all those years being the top just for this
04:17trading a legend for a dying snake she's lost her bloody mind
04:33from that moment on I swore I would become the strongest mage have the most powerful guardian
04:40because only then I would never lose anyone again
04:44but who's to say
04:45professor
04:46may I try one more time
04:50faster more precise
04:53the Icebird clan
04:54they are the strongest guardians
04:56they will protect you from all harm
04:59if I had the strongest guardian
05:01no one would ever be able to hurt me again
05:05will it choose me
05:09so
05:10it's never me
05:11if I just try a little harder
05:13he'll take human form
05:15we'll understand each other
05:16he'll look at me
05:17just once
05:19ten years
05:20I never even got a single thank you
05:31so
05:31he could be gentle
05:33just
05:34never to me
05:35the serpent is my choice
05:37I bind my soul to it
05:39this is throwing her future away just to prove a point
05:43she'll regret this for the rest of her life
05:45I gave my life for him
05:48spoiled him
05:48thought he'd turn back
05:50but all I got was betrayal
05:52shame
05:53and a death without mercy
05:59look I know Vos is your tutee
06:01but you're being too soft
06:02she's basically moved in with your Icebird
06:04what are you talking about?
06:06Serafina and the Icebird?
06:07she's with him every time you left the school
06:09she told everyone you asked her to watch over him
06:11I never asked her to do that
06:14doesn't she have her own predentis?
06:17why is she messing with mine?
06:19Rowan
06:19you mean that black serpent?
06:21it died back in second year
06:23what?
06:25ten years
06:26I spent ten years raising him
06:28spoiling him
06:30even though he never wanted the bond
06:32I never regretted it
06:38I was a joke
06:39ten years
06:40nothing
06:41but raising a man
06:43for someone else
06:47since both parties have consented
06:49continue the ritual
06:50form the circle
06:52two years
07:07and one
07:11Tudor
07:11I guess you and that snake really were meant for each other
07:16Cut the act, Vos. If Rowan hadn't handed him over, you wouldn't get near him. Stop playing the victim.
07:23Here we go again. The water works.
07:31He's taking human form?
07:33High-level petroniums don't even need a wizard to shift.
07:37Merlin, she's actually pulling this off in one go.
07:54A patronus reflects its master. If the wizard's core is too weak to hold the bond, it withers.
07:59So the bird didn't get weaker? It's just her. She's dragging it down.
08:02High and mighty one second. Humbled the next. What a fool.
08:04Told you. A patronus like that doesn't just settle for anyone.
08:18Look at you. Barely a runt. And your anatomy is a mess. A tail fin?
08:25You're a hybrid. Sea serpent mixed with sirin. No wonder Hargrove called you a mutt.
08:36Greedy little thing. Careful, I could have laced that water with a potion to send you straight to Merlin.
08:51Relax. I chose you. I'm not letting you die on me now.
09:10Who the hell are you? This is the research department. Don't even try it.
09:18You... You're the serpent?
09:21Serpent?
09:25Manners, please. I have a name. Nyx.
09:30You... You can take human form?
09:33I've been doing this since I was five, Master.
09:35How? How is that even possible?
09:37Is it meant to be hard? We're born with it.
09:40Then why were you... so weak?
09:42I was ambushed. Badly hurt. Then brought here.
09:48You. Your magic. It healed me enough to shift.
09:58The bound is sealed. I am your Patronos.
10:03Why so tense? You're the master. I'm just the servant.
10:08How do I know you're telling the truth?
10:09You're a mystery with a mile-long list of enemies.
10:12Why should I trust you?
10:20If you don't trust me, Master, just put a collar on me.
10:31Pin me, then I'm not going anywhere, huh?
10:39Maybe you're just too scared, Master.
10:41I'm... I'm not!
10:46You asked for this.
10:52You actually knew the spell.
10:55You told me to.
10:58Master, are you sure you're the one holding the leash?
11:04Better study hard.
11:06Or you might not even have the power to take it off.
11:14Nyx!
11:23Tutor Ashford?
11:30What do you want?
11:31Who is he?
11:32You've met my little black serpent from the ritual.
11:35Didn't you say we were a perfect match?
11:37Tutor, I've come to ask for help.
11:40The Ice Bird needs too many potions.
11:41I can't afford them.
11:42My own training has completely stalled.
11:44And?
11:44You took that serpent and left me with the Ice Bird six months ago.
11:48You owe him.
11:49And me.
11:49You should help me raise him.
11:50And you're my tutor.
11:51Isn't that kind of your job?
11:53I'm your tutor, not your Nami.
11:55I've taught you everything you need.
11:57If you can't handle him, that's your problem.
11:59I owe you nothing.
12:00How can you say that?
12:01You took the serpent and left me with him.
12:03Do you take me for a fool, Seraphina?
12:04Spend my resources raising a legend for you to play with?
12:06Do I look that thick?
12:07You really think you did nothing wrong, tutor?
12:09If a Patronus like him doesn't break through, it's a loss for the Academy.
12:13The Academy isn't your pawn to play with me.
12:16As for you...
12:21Help!
12:24Help!
12:26Help!
12:29If you can't handle him, break the bound.
12:31Leave the legend for someone who's actually worthy.
12:35You'll regret this, Rowan!
12:43I thought you were actually going to give me away.
12:46Don't you have better things to do?
12:49Next!
12:50You spent the whole time looking at her.
12:52Am I not even allowed to tick her off?
12:54No, I don't like it.
12:58Master, it's me you're raising now.
13:01Are you jealous?
13:02So, Vary, stay away from the rubbish.
13:05Trying to boss me around?
13:07Catch me first.
13:11She came to see me today, you know?
13:16Said you entrusted me to her.
13:18Said I was supposed to be hers all along.
13:22How many potions do you need?
13:24Honestly, you can't even manage a bloody word.
13:27Rowan's serpent drifted months ago.
13:29What can you do besides eat?
13:32Don't look at me like that.
13:33I don't owe you anything.
13:37You're hard to find, Tutu.
13:44Tutu, what brings you here?
13:46Nothing, Major.
13:48Just had a question.
13:49Why have you been pattering my Patrenus?
13:55No, no!
13:56You've got it wrong!
13:58I was looking for you!
14:01Master, she's lying.
14:04She told me you stole me from her.
14:06Said I was supposed to be hers.
14:08I didn't!
14:09I...
14:09I would have treated him perfectly!
14:14You're poisoning him against me!
14:16You were the one who rejected him back then.
14:19I won't say another word this time.
14:21Next time, the tribunal will decide.
14:25And if you get expelled, don't come blaming me.
14:31What?
14:32Still sulking?
14:33You and that bird.
14:34You know him too well.
14:35I'm ten thousand times better than that heap of feathers.
14:38You're not allowed to bind with him again.
14:41Relax.
14:41I'm not getting any other Patrenus.
14:44Ever.
14:59Do not use that spell!
15:11The faculty did a deep dive into the iceberg's progress last week.
15:14We tried pooling resources to force a human shift.
15:16It wasn't even close.
15:17We really thought he'd be the one to elevate the Academy's standing.
15:21Resources are not infinite, Professor.
15:23A patronym's of that kind.
15:24You can't force it.
15:26Besides, that bird...
15:30Rowan, what was that?
15:32Nothing.
15:50Slacking off again, Rowan Ashford?
15:55Behave.
15:56I'm doing my best.
16:04Nyx!
16:05What are you doing?
16:07Come on.
16:09Let's go for the fireworks.
16:16Shh.
16:17I'm shifting back.
16:19Don't want to be spotted.
16:25Don't you dare blame me.
16:26I didn't force you to choose this Academy.
16:31You're the one who said it was perfect for training.
16:33I could have been at the Potions Guild by now.
16:36Not being stuck in this dump, penniless, all because of you!
16:40So that's it.
16:42No wonder the bird was so obsessed with her.
16:45They knew each other all along.
16:46The faculty hand you to Rowan on a silver platter and you threw it in her face.
16:50Now she's done with you.
16:52She's the headmaster's favorite.
16:53She has everything.
16:55You'd have shifted to human form years ago if you'd stayed with her.
16:58It was all a setup.
16:59I wasn't special.
17:00Just the mark.
17:01The research department is just their stepping stone, Edward the Bird was doomed.
17:04He wasn't trying to ditch me.
17:05He planned to burn the Academy down and walk away with Serafina.
17:25Shouldn't you be helping her train?
17:27What are you doing here?
17:30Exactly.
17:31My master actually pities me.
17:34She'd never run me ragged with drills.
17:36What's your excuse for abandoning yours?
17:38Absolute drama, queen.
17:42I want that overgrown pigeon to know there's no room for him in our relationship.
17:49And what relationship is that?
17:52Whatever you want it to be.
17:56The Ice Bird has left.
17:58I ignore him.
17:59I need to know why he was here.
18:00That bird is pure malice.
18:03Byer's remorse.
18:04He's sick of your little tutee.
18:09Something's wrong.
18:10I've gone out of my way to avoid him.
18:12If he wanted a new master, he'd go to the faculty.
18:13He wouldn't come to me.
18:15Unless?
18:15Yes.
18:16No time to explain.
18:16I have to go.
18:29Thank Merzen.
18:30The seal is intact.
18:34The Ice Bird.
18:35He's back from the past life too.
18:39Have you heard?
18:40Seraphina's Ice Bird is completely ghosting her.
18:43I saw it at the training grounds.
18:45It refused every single command.
18:47She looked like an idiot.
18:48And it won't stop pestering Rowan.
18:51The bird follows every time tutor Rowan shows up.
18:54You'd think she was its master, not Seraphina.
19:10Honestly, Rowan.
19:12That bird is like one of those blokes who dumps you
19:14and then spends the rest of his life
19:16paying for a send chance.
19:23He ignored you when he had you
19:24and now he's realised you're the best he'll ever get.
19:30Blimey, that's terrifying.
19:31The girl can't afford to keep him anyway.
19:33How about I talk to her?
19:34I'll find her a more budget-friendly prigioness
19:36and have the Ice Bird I rang to her.
19:38Bloody hell, shut it.
19:40Please.
19:41Nyx is all I need.
19:46Fine.
19:46But we have to deal with the bird.
19:48A Praetronus that hates its master
19:49is useless to the Academy.
19:51It's just dead weight for the student.
19:53Seraphina's been stuck at the Novus rank for ten years.
19:56The faculty has decided to send them down the mountain
19:58for field training.
19:59Besides, with you and Nyx here,
20:01the Academy won't miss one bird.
20:04The Headmaster and the faculty are still backing me.
20:07Good.
20:08If they get Seraphina and the bird out of the way,
20:11I'll have time to guard the seal.
20:13I can still fix this.
20:17Headmaster, please.
20:19Don't send me away.
20:20The Academy is my home.
20:21I can't leave.
20:23It was Tutor Rowan, wasn't it?
20:25She wants me gone.
20:26She can steal my iceberg for herself.
20:28Miss Voss, don't read too much into it.
20:30This was the faculty's call, all of us.
20:32If she wants him so badly, I'll hand him over.
20:34But shouldn't she give me Naxx in return?
20:36A legendary bird for a common sea spurb?
20:38Any way you slice it, she's coming out ahead.
20:40Miss Voss, a Patronus is a bonded soul,
20:43not a tradable good.
20:44Now go, prepare for your departure.
20:46I reinforced the wards myself.
20:49I should have felt so much as a breeze, but there was nothing.
20:52Three rare form protrentums just vanished into thin air.
20:59Not the work of dark creatures.
21:01No scent.
21:03This hall is carved into the mountain.
21:06The wards here negate affection and vanishing spells.
21:09Only someone with an Academy mark can enter.
21:11To take three of them without a sound.
21:13You'd have to be one of our own.
21:15Or know the research depart inside out.
21:24There, there.
21:25It's all right.
21:26The serpent brother just looks mean.
21:28He won't eat you.
21:30Sir, do Patratiums ever kill their own kind?
21:32What a horrible thing to say!
21:34They're sentiest beings!
21:35It's impossible!
21:36Don't listen, darling.
21:37Rowan's just telling a scary story.
21:39Humans devour their own.
21:41Patronums are no different.
21:42There's a type of the dark magic.
21:44Want to hear about it?
21:50You're sure a dark creature would risk coming here?
21:53Wild Patraniums don't.
21:55Have the luxury of potions.
21:57If they want to grow, the fastest way is to harvest mana from their own kind.
22:02I nearly died at the hands of one ten years ago.
22:05Nyx.
22:06The higher the rank of the victim, the faster the predator ascends.
22:10Once they get a taste for it, they always come back from one.
22:14All quiet.
22:16Please some rest, sir.
22:17We'll take the next watch tonight.
22:24Help!
22:27Trouble in the dorms.
22:46Blood.
22:49Blood.
22:54You were right.
22:55The mana was drained in an instant.
22:57Barely a sound.
22:59The Master didn't sense the Patronus until it was too late.
23:09Was it him?
23:16Don't look.
23:18It's him.
23:21How do you know?
23:22I know the scent of a dark Patronus.
23:25That bird reeks of it.
23:32Have you heard of that old rumor about the disappearing Pretentians?
23:37Seriously?
23:37I just got into the research depart last year.
23:40That actually happened?
23:41No idea.
23:42Might just be a ghost story to keep us on our toes.
23:45Since that day, the iceberg went quiet.
23:47No more accidents.
23:49Two years on, only the cat's owner remembers.
23:51To everyone else, it's just academy lore.
23:56Headmaster, I'm formally requesting the iceberg be confined.
24:00Even if there haven't been any new victims, we can't leave a threat like this lurking in the academy.
24:05Do you think we haven't noticed he's off?
24:07But Rowan, what proof do you have?
24:11I...
24:11Without proof, how do we justify it to the students?
24:15Confine a Thur Patronus belong to an innocent student, and we'd be risking the stability of the entire academy.
24:22Nyx wouldn't lie to me.
24:24Nyx wouldn't lie to me.
24:24You'll slip up eventually, you bird.
24:39Nyx?
24:40Nyx?
24:41Nyx?
24:54Nyx?
25:08Nyx!
25:17The ice bird. He shifted.
25:29Nyx! Get back! Get away from him!
25:40You did that on purpose!
25:44Did what? You murdered your own master and drained every drop of her mana.
25:49If I hadn't caught you, my master would have been next.
25:54You're back from the dead too, aren't you, Rowan?
25:57What do you want?
25:58Let me guess. You knew at the summoning ritual. That's why you rejected me.
26:04Who gave you the right to walk away?
26:08This black snake?
26:12Fine! Watch me, Rowan. I'll unleash the horrors right now.
26:16We're starting over. This serpent won't get a chance.
26:19Save the act! Last life, you and Seraphina used the whole academy as a stepping stone, and now you killed
26:26her.
26:26No!
26:28You think you get a third chance? Wait for the ancient bond to burn you.
26:39Too late. I'm one step away.
27:02Rowan, the seal is failing. Hold back the tide of monsters. I'll handle the resealing.
27:12Rowan, the seal is failing. Hold back the tide of monsters. I'll handle the resealing.
27:23You can't stop it, Rowan! Spend another life with me! I promise! I'll be devoted only to you!
27:31Rowan, it's over. You can't stop this.
27:34Come with me. Come with me. This time, I'll give you everything.
27:43Take her? Try. Like this. Focus. Don't get distracted.
27:54Say it.
27:56Agus?
27:59VRL Ra!
28:01VRL Ra!
28:02VRL Ra!
