00:00A while
00:16A while
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?
04:25Treason.
04:55Without 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?
05:08I was asked to be here.
05:10I was asked to be here and I came, but you cannot compel me to be parted to this.
05:19No.
05:20No.
05:21We were not side by side.
05:25There was a point where he was negotiating for my life while 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?
05:41Shenyang.
05:44The loss.
05:46Your journey there.
05:48Your time with the whore's whore friend.
05:52Sanctioned by the Khan of Karns.
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 war, 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.
06:28And 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 Karns.
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.
07:18From 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, the most common law of nature and of man is to take what has been
08:08mandated by God or by the swords and arrows you command.
08:15You claim both.
08:17But you must be prepared for the resistance of the Lionhearted.
08:22And the West is not weak.
08:38If you're nothing more to say to champion your cause.
08:43It seems my hand is guaranteed.
08:45No matter what words I sound.
08:49Indeed.
08:54Oh.
09:16Indeed.
09:24Indeed.
09:25Indeed.
09:27Indeed.
09:28Indeed.
09:29Indeed.
09:31Indeed.
09:31Indeed.
09:33Indeed.
09:34Indeed.
09:36Indeed.
09:39Indeed.
10:01The Imperial Seal is yours, Chancellor, and with it, the dynasty.
10:09Chancellor, 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.
10:50They 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.
11:09You need not fear me.
11:11It is Judar, 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, and 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, to be woven into my presentational gown
12:13that 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.
13:09With more on the horizon.
13:13So I've heard.
13:15You have heard?
13:19The Latin is to be executed.
13:28At dawn.
13:30A seamstress will pay you a visit shortly.
13:39Master Polo, I came to inquire as to your state of mind.
13:46My thanks for your concern, Jingim.
13:50Prince.
13:52Prince, Jingim.
13:58I know this seems unjust, and it'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.
14:32And instructed not to return without meat.
14:36For the kingdom.
14:39It can take a day.
14:41A week.
14:43Some never return.
14:50What do you think is the most vital trait for the hunter to possess?
14:55Please, Jingim, 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.
15:14A mighty trophy.
15:18I set my arrow.
15:20Took aim.
15:24He was gone.
15:29But 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.
15:45Returned triumphant.
15:47Dipped my finger in the fat of the kill.
15:50Been deemed a man and slept in my own bed.
15:56But I waited.
16:01As I felt the sun warm me the next morning.
16:07There it was.
16:09Passing between the trees.
16:15My father was so proud.
16:18I was so proud of my heart.
16:18I was so proud.
16:41I have a hole for him to see my heart.
16:46An innocent target, whose offence was crossing paths at the wrong time, with the wrong person.
17:14Death. Another lonely enterprise. May your God accompany you, Master Polo.
17:31You will need it more than I.
17:42Let us not build strife where none should exist. Pride and hope have filled the coffers of the people's spirits.
17:48Those coffers were never depleted. You 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, and each now pledges their support for an assault on Kambilak.
18:16My compliments, Jia Si Rao.
18:18Insincerity still?
18:20I am nothing but sincere. You set out to undermine the Council and retain the Chancellorate. Fang Jian fell.
18:30You sought to repel the Mongol horde, and masterfully lured them into a hornet's nest of sharpened steel.
18:37You 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. But you will do so without the support you're
18:51about 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. Ever.
19:08I assume that would be your answer. Very well. I shall go it alone. Yet again.
19:15You need the Emperor in order to accomplish your final design. You cannot lock me away from him forever.
19:22My dear Empress, I never considered that an option.
19:57You're here to defend him?
20:00Lord Khan, years ago, you took my eyes.
20:04Today, I offer you the rest of me.
20:08What do you speak of?
20:10If the boy is culpable, as you say, and I have no reason without the Khan's good judgment on such
20:18matters,
20:19then I am equally culpable.
20:22You entrusted the Latin to me. I trained him, fought beside him.
20:28How can you not believe me complicit?
20:30Get out!
20:31Lord Khan.
20:32Guards!
20:33Escort the monk out of my sight.
20:35Do not allow him to return.
21:01Where do you intend to go?
21:03The Ministry of Justice.
21:04For what purpose?
21:05None of your concern.
21:08My apologies. But you may not leave, Princess.
21:12Pardon me?
21:13I cannot allow you to leave.
21:14You're my servant.
21:16As well as your defender.
21:19Whom do you take orders from?
21:21The Blue Princess commands me as dictated by the great Khan.
21:25You had best remember that.
21:27Stand aside.
21:36Empress Chubby has instructed that you remain in your quarters.
21:42Until?
21:43We receive further orders.
21:45We receive further orders.
22:15Hello, Ling Ling.
22:19I appreciate your regard, child. But sit with me.
22:31You're beyond your years, you grace in training.
22:35Regretfully, that is found far too infrequently in children your age.
22:39My thanks, my lady.
22:42When I was a young girl, my mother told me it was as if I had been raised by wild
22:47yaks.
22:48Spitting and kicking everyone around me.
22:54How are you feeling?
22:57My feet hurt less, my lady.
23:01Good news.
23:04How are you finding your time in Camberlock?
23:06I enjoy it greatly.
23:10You miss your home.
23:12Your family.
23:17Tell me of your mother.
23:20To have a daughter such as yourself, she must be lovely.
23:24She is.
23:26She is a dancer.
23:30A dancer?
23:32Does she dance for you?
23:34For my father.
23:37I am quite sure he enjoys that.
23:40She was his favorite.
23:46His favorite.
23:47His favorite?
23:51Did your father have many dancers?
24:04Does your father still live?
24:11Did your father sit on a throne?
24:18We own Chinese royalty.
24:20It's more precious than anything that surrounds us in this moment.
24:24The question is how best to use it.
24:27We own nothing.
24:29The daughter rightfully does not trust me.
24:32The mother less so.
24:33The mother is like a wounded animal.
24:35Desperate for kindness.
24:36One which will lick your hands simply to get a taste before biting.
24:41Some men pay good coin for such pleasures.
24:44I wonder sometimes about that mind of yours.
24:48Clear and intent, Lady Empress.
24:51Then be intent on this matter.
24:54To tame an animal.
24:56It must fear the raising of your hand.
25:00I may be just ahead of you at this moment.
25:04How so?
25:05I planted a seed in the mother's head that her daughter is...
25:10closer than she first envisioned.
25:12I imagine it may have sprouted as a weed.
25:15Hmm.
25:29I value your friendship, Sifu.
25:33As I've stated time and again, I'm not your friend.
25:38Far from it.
25:39I know you wish to believe that.
25:42But you cared for me.
25:44Taught me.
25:45Protected me.
25:47What would you call that if not friendship?
25:50An onerous burden.
25:54In a few hours time, that burden will be lifted.
25:58I would have lost a friend.
26:01Is there no escape?
26:03From you leaving this mortal body?
26:06Yes.
26:08None.
26:09Unless you can find something to give to him
26:12that is more valuable than your life.
26:14Anything else?
26:15Yes.
26:17I know.
26:20Yes.
26:35You're heath.
26:36As a man sorry for that.
26:36Yes, yes.
26:36I know that is mine.
26:36You're not alone.
26:36I know my life.
26:37Yes, yes, that is.
26:37Yes, that is.
26:38I would love to walk away from it.
26:38It is my love.
26:38I know my love.
26:38Yes, that's my love.
26:39Yes.
26:49Why?
26:50She missed your father so much.
26:53Sometimes hearts are broken,
26:55and 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 park.
27:20You're most correct.
27:22But it is so much more.
27:24This mantis that I give to you
27:26was one of 300 nymphs.
27:29Babies.
27:30About this big.
27:32Imagine that.
27:34300.
27:35The strongest among them kill the weakest among them.
27:37Until the very best are left.
27:40A mere handful.
27:42Now this mantis will leave this life within 10 months of today.
27:48You must take this time as an opportunity to learn everything you can.
27:52To study.
27:54To practice.
27:55To absorb all the lessons of the mantis.
27:58For there are many.
27:59Patience.
28:01Speed.
28:02Adaptability.
28:03Ruthlessness.
28:04The traits of a warrior king.
28:08The traits of a warrior king.
28:08Heed my words, my emperor.
28:11And you will become as the mantis.
28:29Judas.
28:33Yes, princess.
28:38Yes, princess.
28:41Toham as a man.
29:02You are a man with the man with the man.
29:03I'm a man with the man.
29:04That's a man with the man.
29:05I'm a man with the man.
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.
29:53I 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, you 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.
33:20Come on.
33:57is this what you summoned me down here for you oversee war and I am going to tell you how
34:05to win

34:43life

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

36:17Alexander Alexander employed the trebuchet a siege engine powered not by men but by a counterweight

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

39:19finally
39:21only my vice regent had attained this key years ago

41:02no
41:02no
41:02no
41:07no
43:03Liar!
43:04You're a liar!
43:06Remove yourself.
43:07Speak of this lunacy no more!
43:09Tell the Kishik to jail me.
43:11You made your point.
43:12Take your leave.
43:13There is honest work to be done.
43:15This is merely a statement of facts.
43:18Oh, you hired the assassins.
43:20You manipulated that whore, Mei-Lim.
43:23You instructed my brother to withhold his troops from Wu-Chang.
43:27You conspired with Jasida?
43:28I conspired for and with the Karnat.
43:31You think what?
43:32The Karnat does not guide my heart.
43:34You're mind.
43:36But minds can be easily persuaded of anything.
43:39The reason you do not sleep is because of a longing in your heart that will never be said to
43:45you.
43:45Why should it?
43:47I know you believe Shan Yang will fall.
43:50It will.
43:50And you fear that once conquered, I turn my aims to lands far-reaching?
43:55I do.
43:56Why should I not?
43:57Because you know how this will end.
44:00As all other dynasties have.
44:04Am I not different?
44:07I once believed so.
44:09This is why I stand before you this evening.
44:12Yusuf, you did not do this.
44:14My confession stands.
44:17Be it betrayal by my hands or by my heart.
44:22I am guilty.
44:24Why do you want from me?
44:27To give up Shan Yang.
44:29You know the answer is yes.
44:32I cannot!
44:33I know that as well.
44:35I should hide behind my wall.
44:38Take pleasure in the present state.
44:41While away my days and bury myself here when they're done.
44:44Where is the fault in that?
44:47How many lands must be reaped?
44:50How many faults must be filled?
44:53Young spirits extinguished.
45:02One.
45:03One less game.
45:12Taking the pieces away.
45:33The boy is guilty.
45:38His only guilt is his blind desire for your love.
45:52You know who he reminds me of.
45:56Yusuf.
45:58My crazed cripple of Khazar here.
46:02Not in mindless bloodletting.
46:06But in dedication to your cause.
46:11He does.
46:14Do you need that dedication?
46:16At your service.
46:18At all times.
46:22I am no longer capable of it.
46:26Nor 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 Korultai.
47:22You will lose.
47:25And in that, a dream of this place may endure.
47:33You have no choice, Kublai.
47:35My father.
47:48My, my father.
47:50My father.
48:00My father.
48:01Let's go.
48:34I thought I had until dawn.
48:49The final battle looms. Be decisive in your victory.
49:04You are released from this prison.
49:10But I am truly free.
49:17I am truly free.
49:50I am truly free.
49:56I am truly free.
49:57I am truly free.
49:59I am truly free.
50:00I am truly free.
50:26I am truly free.
50:39I am truly free.
50:46I am truly free.
