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.
00:02:25You will pray for them.
00:02:36Father God Panel Panel
00:03:04Amen.
00:03:23Give me the power to keep them safe during this time of their consecration, for these are dark and difficult
00:03:30times.
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.
00:04:09And by your decree, then peace will rule the land.
00:04:16Amen.
00:04:19Amen.
00:04:20Amen.
00:04:31Amen.
00:04:33Amen.

00:05:38Sarah!
00:05:58Oh, my God.
00:06:32Oh, my God.
00:07:07Rest, my child.
00:07:11Go to the gods in peace now.
00:07:15I will find your companions and see them safe, I promise you.
00:07:20I will find your companions and see them safe, I promise you.
00:07:50I will find your companions and see them safe, I promise you.

00:08:11Oh, my God.
00:08:26Oh, my God.
00:08:34Oh, my God.
00:08:58King's bastard.
00:09:13there is no need for any of you to bow i am not your better perhaps not our better but
00:09:20our only hope unless the gods have deserted us as well as the king we are united by our
00:09:29common fate each one of us has lost a daughter and with violence lord roland's daughter killed
00:09:38there was no reason for it the law is clear the new king can take any one of our daughters
00:09:46for his
00:09:47bride and he has the same right to choose one over another then why take all of them perhaps
00:09:56he intends to hold them to ransom this is madness the old king was a man of truth
00:10:05and honor his heir apparently is evil to his father's good he wouldn't be the first prince
00:10:14to turn on his king we have come to you seeking answers but i am a priestess of the light
00:10:20not a
00:10:21sorcerer or a seer we do not come to you for magic spells but to claim our daughters
00:10:42put this on and say nothing
00:11:00you said the king's men were seen this evil is his doing of that i have no doubt what would
00:11:09you
00:11:09have us do then attack the king at his castle he has an army larger than all our forces put
00:11:14together
00:11:15not to mention the mine at the foot of his castle keep he has enough silver to buy all the
00:11:21mercenaries
00:11:21he needs there is no way for our daughters to be rescued
00:11:29you will be rewarded for your silence
00:11:35or you shall be flogged if you break it
00:11:40you shall be flogged if you break it
00:12:05men bought for money can be bribed and 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 perhaps convince him of his folly
00:12:19and how will you accomplish that set your hand and seal to a document that makes me your proxy in
00:12:27this affair
00:12:28then i will have the power of each and every one of you to shield me from whatever evil awaits
00:12:34me at the king's hand
00:12:41go with god
00:12:42and all are gratitude

00:15:31you wanted it now without waiting for it
00:15:34to come to you as it should have
00:15:38might have

00:16:19or slice open your throat from ear to ear
00:16:23such as the reason why i should not do one or the other of these things
00:16:29or do you think
00:16:30i will spare you just because your whore of a mother whelped you from my father's seat
00:16:37if that's your reason
00:16:38think of a matter
00:16:43your thinking
00:16:45is far too slow
00:16:49count to five allowed
00:16:52your five last seconds

00:17:22very clever
00:17:25it is the truth
00:17:29one man's truth
00:17:31is another's lie
00:17:33and truth or not
00:17:37you won't see Rowan's castle
00:17:39with your pen and flying above it
00:17:42you would steal my legacy
00:17:44not a legacy
00:17:47merely a traitor's payment
00:17:55i could have paid a tenth as much to someone else
00:17:59to have the poison put into our father's wine
00:18:03i offered you Rowan's land from pity
00:18:06and i take them back with spite

00:18:27dress me
00:18:48so
00:18:51this is the stuff that queens are made of
00:18:53i don't believe it
00:18:57my brother deserves better than anyone of you for a bride
00:19:15narrow as a boy
00:19:18you will breed no heir
00:19:20i'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
00:19:36except for her
00:19:39she might do for the king
00:19:41if 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
00:19:56who 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
00:20:07break her spirit
00:20:09guards
00:20:25oh yes
00:20:27my brother's wedding
00:20:29he really will expect me to attend
00:20:32especially
00:20:33since he's about to become a father as well
00:20:38we all meet again
00:20:40you can be assured of that
00:20:41but brotherly love
00:20:43and duty calls
00:20:45so i must be off
00:20:51since my soldier's urges cannot be trusted
00:20:54see to it that our royal honor is secured
00:20:58but make sure
00:20:59they can work where they can see my riches
