00:00The End
02:53I fear they may be less compliant now, but we shall do what is necessary to bend the willful.
03:02My lord.
03:06Is that truly all?
03:11Do you not wish to discuss your counsel or my disregard of it?
03:25The polo matter.
03:27Are you prepared to proceed?
03:59The Khan of Karns grants you a final audience to plead for mercy.
04:14I will not plead for mercy.
04:17I will not plead for mercy, but I will defend myself.
04:21May I seek clarity as to the charges levied against me?
04:39I take no pleasure in this, Master Marco.
04:41I will.
04:42But it seems great misfortune has descended upon our kingdom on your arrival.
04:47I did not choose to remain here.
04:49I chose to be released to my father.
04:51Your time in the Kochko region, your ability to enter and leave without repercussion.
04:56And do you suspect, Biamba, son of the Khan, to have blood on his hands?
05:00We traveled side by side.
05:04Is that accurate, Biamba?
05:06Were you always at the Latin side on your journey?
05:09I was asked to be here and I came.
05:11But you cannot compel me to be parted to this.
05:19No.
05:21We were not side by side.
05:25There was a point where he was negotiating for my life.
05:28While I sat captive, preparing to die.
05:32And if I remember, you sent the Latin with me on my journey.
05:36After he convinced me to do so.
05:38How does your body stand straight without a spine?
05:41Shang-Yang.
05:44The loss.
05:46Your journey there.
05:48Your time with the whore's whore, friend.
05:52Sanctioned by the Khan of Khans.
05:54You alerted the Song to our pending attack.
05:56You conspired to lead us into the slaughter.
05:58What need would they of warning?
06:02They knew we were descending at a week's distance.
06:06As to the wall, I am guilty.
06:12I fonder in the blood of the thousand superiors for my error.
06:17I have no defense.
06:23But right or wrong, I have done nothing but serve my captor and Khan.
06:31And only him?
06:37Yes.
06:43Is that all?
06:46Nothing you have presented is punishable by the laws of the Khan of Khans.
06:53I heard this translated.
06:59Would you care to share with the Khan the words that you keep so closely to your still-beating heart?
07:07All kings shall fall before him.
07:11All kings shall fall before him.
07:16It was a gift.
07:17It was a gift.
07:18From father to son?
07:19Yes.
07:21A verse from the scriptures of a religion welcomed like all the others within the walls of Kampulak.
07:28A faith with designs on our kingdom.
07:30I know nothing of that.
07:33But I do believe you have designs of the Vatican.
07:37What of it?
07:40Respectfully, Lord Khan.
07:43We reap what we sow.
07:45You speak recklessly.
07:46I speak honestly.
07:49You deserve honesty.
07:52You believe I should not conquer the West?
07:57On the contrary, Lord Khan.
08:01The most common law of nature and of man
08:06is to take what has been mandated by God
08:11or by the swords and arrows you command.
08:15You claim both.
08:17But you must be prepared for the resistance of the Lionhearted.
08:21And the West is not weak.
08:38If you have nothing more to say, to champion your cause.
08:43It seems my end is guaranteed, no matter what words I sound.
08:49Indeed.
08:54Oh.
09:18What do you think?
09:18What do you think?
09:27What do you think?
10:01The Imperial Seal is yours, Chancellor, and with it, the dynasty.
10:10Chancellor, even still?
10:12Unless your birthright has altered.
10:18The seven families are arriving. Songs of your victory have carried far and wide.
10:23How you eviscerated the Mongol horde, body and soul.
10:29They're prepared to pledge their fealty to the Emperor.
10:35They're going to want to see the boy.
10:38That is assured.
10:40No one truly believes that boy guides his own hand.
10:45Yet the sheep elevate him.
10:50I must stand behind him.
10:52A wise tactic, my Chancellor.
10:56I suppose I couldn't simply imprint this on his skull and float him down the Yangtze.
11:07Tell me your name.
11:10You need not fear me.
11:12It is Chudar, my princess.
11:16You may call me Kokachin.
11:19No, princess.
11:20Do you defy me?
11:23In this, I do.
11:26If you defy this simple request, how am I to know you will not defy a greater one?
11:31The truest of servants knows our needs better than we do.
11:35Leave us.
11:40I was your age when I was promised to Kublai.
11:44It was terrifying.
11:46I knew he would be gone, even if he himself did not.
11:52At the time, I felt as if I was unworthy.
11:56That a mistake had surely been made.
11:58And at a moment's notice, someone would unveil me as a fraud.
12:05It was not until Kublai's mother gifted me this, the finest of silks,
12:10to be woven into my presentational gown, that I knew it was true.
12:15I kept what remained, to one day give to a daughter of my own.
12:26It is lovely.
12:28A mere reflection of the beauty who wears it.
12:34I also come to pay condolences and to inquire as to your heart.
12:42I lost a good friend.
12:44Your only friend, if I recall.
12:49I hope it's no longer the case, my queen.
12:53If you speak of me, speak with certainty.
13:03I'm afraid loss has infected the kingdom of late.
13:08With more on the horizon.
13:13So I've heard.
13:15You have heard?
13:19The Latin is to be executed.
13:28At door.
13:30A seamstress will pay you a visit shortly.
13:40Master Polo.
13:42I came to inquire as to your state of mind.
13:46My thanks for your concern, Jing'em.
13:50Prince.
13:52Prince.
13:53Jing'em.
13:58I know this seems unjust.
14:01It's hard for you to see, sitting where you are.
14:05But understand that this is entirely for the good of the kingdom.
14:14Do you hunt?
14:18In our culture, your first hunt, as in many things in life, is a very lonely enterprise.
14:28You were cast into the wilderness with nothing more than a bow and an arrow, and instructed
14:33not to return without meat.
14:36For the kingdom.
14:39It can take a day, a week, some never return.
14:50What do you think is the most vital trait for the hunter to possess?
14:56Please, Jing'em, do not mar my final hours.
15:01Patience.
15:06I saw its horns first.
15:09Grand.
15:10Stretching to the heavens and catching the morning light.
15:15A mighty trophy.
15:18I set my arrow.
15:20Took aim.
15:23He was gone.
15:28But I had a feeling about him.
15:32And so I waited another night.
15:35It was so cold.
15:37I wanted to run home.
15:39A handful of kills passed me by.
15:43I could have slain them all, returned triumphant.
15:47Dipped my finger in the fat of the kill, been deemed a man, and slept in my own bed.
15:56I could have slain them all, but I waited.
16:01As I felt the sun warm me the next morning, there it was, passing between the trees.
16:15Patience.
16:16My father was so proud.
16:39Patience.
16:42Patience to ensure that true aim finds the true target.
16:47An innocent target, whose offense was crossing paths at the wrong time, with the wrong person.
17:14Death.
17:16Another lonely enterprise.
17:21May your God accompany you, Master Polo.
17:31You will need it more than I.
17:42Let us not build strife where none should exist.
17:45Pride and hope have filled the coffers of the people's spirits.
17:48Those coffers were never depleted.
17:50You simply convinced yourself otherwise to support your own machinations.
17:54Why am I your enemy when you're the one prepared to bury our culture in history's potter's field?
18:01Landed gentry of the South prepared to meet.
18:03Are these the same landed gentry whose land you stripped against my husband's wishes not long ago?
18:08The proceeds from the fields helped fund our defenses,
18:12and each now pledges their support for an assault on Cambylac.
18:15My compliments, Jiaxidao.
18:18Insincerity still?
18:20I am nothing but sincere.
18:22You set out to undermine the council and retain the Chancellorate.
18:27Fang Jian fell.
18:30You sought to repel the Mongol horde and masterfully lured them into a hornet's nest of sharpened steel.
18:36You wished to gather southern China into one indomitable force and gird them for the final unification.
18:45I have no doubt you will succeed in that as well.
18:48But you will do so without the support you're about to ask of me.
18:52How might I convince you of the folly of your decision?
18:55Stop tinkering with that and look at me.
19:02There is nothing you might say or do.
19:05Ever.
19:08I assume that would be your answer.
19:10Very well.
19:11I shall go it alone.
19:14Yet again.
19:14You need the Emperor in order to accomplish your final design.
19:19You cannot lock me away from him forever.
19:22My dear Empress.
19:25I never considered that an option.
19:42Oh, my God.
19:57Amen, man!
19:57You're here to defend him. Lord Khan, years ago you took my eyes. Today I offer you
20:07the rest of me. What do you speak of? If the boy is culpable, as you say, and I have
20:15no reason without the Khan's good judgment on such matters, then I am equally
20:20culpable. You entrusted the Latin to me. I trained him, fought beside him. How can
20:28you not believe me complicit? Get out! Lord Khan. Guides! Escort the monk out of my sight.
20:35Do not allow him to retire.
21:01Where do you intend to go? The Ministry of Justice. For what purpose? None of your
21:05concern. My apologies, but you may not leave, Princess. Pardon me? I cannot allow you to
21:14leave. You're my servant. As well as your defender. Whom do you take orders from? The
21:21Blue Princess commands me as dictated by the Great Khan. You had best remember that. Stand
21:28aside.
21:36Empress Chubby has instructed that you remain in your quarters.
21:40Empress. Until? We receive further orders.
22:15Hello, Ling Ling. I appreciate your regard, child. But sit with me. You're beyond your
22:32years in grace and training. Regretfully, that has found far too infrequently in children
22:38your age. My thanks, my lady. When I was a young girl, my mother told me it was as if
22:46I had been raised by wild yaks, spitting and kicking everyone around me. How are you feeling?
22:58My feet hurt less, my lady. Good news. How are you finding your time in Camberlock?
23:06I enjoy it. I enjoy it greatly. You miss your home. Your family. Tell me of your mother. To have
23:20a daughter such as yourself, she must be lovely. She is. She is a dancer. A dancer? Does she dance
23:33for you? For my father.
23:37I am quite sure he enjoys that. She was his favorite.
23:46His favorite? Did your father have many dancers?
23:54The hoodluckus, the hoodluckus.
23:56You miss your father.
23:57I would ask you to ask him a my wife?
24:04The hoodluckus.
24:04Does your father still live?
24:11Did your father sit on the throne?
24:18we own Chinese royalty it's more precious than anything that surrounds us in this moment
24:24the question is how best to use it we owe nothing the daughter rightfully does not trust me the
24:32mother less so the mother's like a wounded animal desperate for kindness one which will lick your
24:38hands simply to get a taste before biting some men pay good coin for such pleasures I wonder
24:45sometimes about that mind of yours clear and intent lady Empress then be intent on this matter to tame
24:55an animal it must fear the raising of your hand I may be just ahead of you at this moment
25:01how so I
25:05planted a seed in the mother's head that a daughter is closer that you first envision I imagine it may
25:14have sprouted as a weed I value your friendship Sifu yes I've stated
25:35time and again I'm not your friend far from it I know you wish to believe that but you cared
25:43for me
25:43taught me protected me what would you call that if not friendship an onerous burden
25:54in a few hours time that burden will be lifted
25:58I would have lost a friend is there no escape from you leaving this mortal body yes none unless you
26:10can find
26:10something to give to him that is more valuable than your life
26:49mind break wow
26:50why She must do father so much sometimes hearts are broken and they cannot be pieced together again
26:58Will mine break?
27:00No.
27:02Because you do not need her.
27:04You do not need me or anyone.
27:06You need only this.
27:16What do you see?
27:19A book?
27:20You're most correct.
27:22But it is so much more.
27:24This mantis that I give to you
27:26was one of three hundred nymphs.
27:29Babies. About this big.
27:32Imagine that. Three hundred.
27:35The strongest among them
27:36kill the weakest among them.
27:38Until the very best are left.
27:40A mere handful.
27:42Now this mantis
27:44will leave this life within ten months of today.
27:48You must take this time
27:50as an opportunity to learn everything you can.
27:52To study.
27:54To practice.
27:54To absorb all the lessons of the mantis.
27:57To absorb all the lessons of the mantis.
27:58For there are many.
27:59Patience.
28:01Speed.
28:02Adaptability.
28:03Ruthlessness.
28:05The traits of a warrior king.
28:08Heed my words, my emperor.
28:11And you will become as the mantis.
28:29Judas.
28:33Yes, princess.
28:35Yes, princess.
28:37Yes, princess.
28:43Oh, my god.
28:56Yes, princess.
28:58I'll do this.
28:59Okay, brother.
29:10I'll take the light,
29:11you will be.
29:31What are your thoughts?
29:34I do not know.
29:41Is it my doing?
29:44Are you frustrated with me?
29:46No.
29:47No, never.
29:52I need you here.
30:00I am.
30:06Why am I not relieved?
30:12You are sensitive to the grief of others, no matter their transgressions.
30:18Every breath the Latin takes is a burden on your soul.
30:23At sun's light, we will find relief.
30:43Did I introduce a curse into our bed?
30:49You are the son of a Khan.
30:54A Khan in waiting.
30:58Default rests with me and me alone.
31:24Do not make your presence known.
31:30I wanted you to see that she lives.
31:33As you wished.
31:36She will always be here.
31:38Under my watchful eye.
31:40Under my tutelage.
31:42I will care for her as my own.
31:51Look at her.
31:53Remember her.
31:55You will never see her again.
31:59But if you do what I say, when I say it, you can be secure in the knowledge that her
32:05days will stretch long before her.
32:17Come now.
32:19Come now.
32:44What is the benefit of being a princess if your lord requires you to perform your own labor?
32:50We will do the same to our children one day.
32:54Where are your belongings?
32:56I looked for what I should pack and realized everything I need is here.
33:03In a week's time, we will be home.
33:08Is this as foreign to you as it is to me?
33:11More so.
33:13Do you think we will ever settle into it?
33:15I hope not.
33:19I hope not.
33:57is this what you summoned me down here for you oversee war and I am going to tell you how
34:05to win
34:05it thank you for coming do you think I would deny a dying man an audience I know nothing of
34:17you

34:27unfettered access inside the person's thoughts warrantless access to be fair you were an enigma
34:37one that had grown close to my card you could have sat with me prior to my last night of
34:43life
34:43and asked I am certain you would not have granted me the insight I required but
34:55I procured the journal prior to your writing of one curiosity what made you cease your attempts at
35:02escape was it her under the circumstances you need not to hold your tongue partially significantly but
35:28not entirely tell me
35:47the world Phoenician city of Tyre he defied Alexander for thirteen long years
35:55built on an island Tyre was walled to the sea an insurmountable fortress that was key to all of
36:02Persia he attempted to breach the walls using common instruments of war arrows battering rams
36:10cuttables but three dozen men are needed to load and fire one
36:17Alexander Alexander employed the trebuchet a siege engine powered not by men but by a counterweight
36:27imagine the weight of six thousand pounds on one end and a three hundred pound rock set on the other
36:37imagine what even three of these engines could do to the walls of Xiangyang and at a distance that keeps
36:53the army safe from archers
36:55correct
37:01altruism still
37:04even in the face of your execution
37:07not purely
37:10I'm not afraid to die
37:13but I'm terrified to do so
37:15while branded a traitor
37:24what is the entirety you spoke of earlier what else made you stay

38:48they must be punished
38:51what does the strong mantis do to his weaker brothers and sisters

39:08a catapult
39:10a waste of my time
39:13Lord Khan
39:14with respect
39:15this may very well be the key
39:17the key to Xiangyang
39:19finally
39:21only my vice regent had attained this key years ago
39:26some magical solution
39:27why did you bring this to me when I know you crave my failure
39:31if that is what you believe
39:34then you have not been listening to any
39:35enough
39:36of your insolence
39:40you
39:43beg for my pardon
39:44this is at your escape
39:46no sire
39:48begging is for the guilty
39:57I've seen strong amendment you weep before the right
40:02when the time comes
40:04be brave and sure
40:08for it is coming at dawn
40:12no matter how loud you cry
40:16Lord Khan
40:17yeah
41:08I've seen strong
44:25Why should I not?
45:02One.
45:03One.
45:04One less game.
45:12Taking the pieces away.
45:17One less game.
45:19One less game.
45:38His only guilt is his blind desire for your love.
45:52You know who he reminds me of?
45:56Yosef, my crazed cripple of Khazaria.
46:03Not in mindless bloodletting, but in dedication to your cause.
46:11He does.
46:14You need that dedication at your service, at all times.
46:22I am no longer capable of it, nor am I willing.
46:31You have the finest engineers in all the world.
46:36My final counsel to you is that you put them to work.
46:41Construct the Latin siege engine.
46:56As your kind, I do not accept your confession.
47:07I have sent messages to every corner of the kingdom, outlining my complicity.
47:13In doing so, I have weakened your position before Karakurum and throughout China.
47:19You will be challenged in the Kurultai.
47:22You will lose.
47:24And in that, a dream of this place may endure.
47:33You have no choice, Kublai.
48:00You have no choice in your life.
48:02Your father tells you there's eight people who are blind.
48:02Thank you, Kublai.
48:02You have no choice in your life.
48:04You must currently conduct the interior of the lights.
48:04I must admit to this hero.
48:04You have no choice in one room.
48:04You have no choice in the room.
48:04You are in the room.
48:05Let's go.
48:35I thought I had until dawn.
48:49The final battle looms.
48:52Be decisive in your victory.
49:05You are released from this prison.
49:10But I am truly free.
49:19The final battle looms.
49:20The final battle looms.
49:48The final battle looms.
49:55The final battle looms.
50:25Let's go.
50:37Let's go.
51:06Let's go.
51:36Let's go.
52:05Let's go.
52:35Let's go.
52:37Let's go.
52:45Let's go.
52:47Let's go.
53:16Let's go.
