Transcript
00:00One beautiful young woman after another is brought into the palace.
00:03The prophet Tyreges orders them to strip and kneel before Helios.
00:07Helios examines them one by one, but none has a crescent-shaped mark on that exact spot.
00:13Prince Helios bears the blood of the Sunday God, and a curse laid on him by the Moon Goddess.
00:20I'm the only woman in this city-state who can save him.
00:23He chose me when I had nothing.
00:26Protected me when no one else would.
00:32I thought that meant I was fated to be his.
00:34Then I overheard the truth.
00:36When he takes me to his bed for the seventh time, his curse will end.
00:40So will my life.
00:41Whenever Moonlight touches Prince Helios, the violence inside him surges beyond his control.
00:47To keep himself from hurting others, he locks himself in the dungeon before sunset.
00:52The dungeon walls are stained with blood.
00:54Each mark was left by Helios as he fought the madness inside him.
00:58He has to find a maiden with a crescent-shaped mark high on her inner thigh.
01:01A descendant of the Moon Goddess's bloodline.
01:04For seven nights, he must take her to his bed and drink the blood from that mark.
01:08Otherwise, on the first full Moonlight after his coronation, he will completely lose control and die by his own hand.
01:15Get out, now!
01:19The girls flee the palace in fear.
01:22I'm running out of time.
01:23My coronation is on the next full Moon.
01:25Tyresius remains calm.
01:27We'll find her.
01:28The Oracle has spoken.
01:29You'll become the greatest king in the history of this city-state.
01:33Helios has heard those words too many times.
01:36His patience snaps.
01:37Not if this Dan-damned curse kills me first.
01:40If we don't find the Moon Goddess's heir before then, I'll be dead.
01:45Find her.
01:47Now, or when the full Moon rises, we all go to Hades together.
01:52At that very moment, I am crouching in a dark corner of the workshop, grinding herbs by the weak glow
01:58of an oil lamp.
01:59The crescent-shaped birthmark high on my thigh begins to burn.
02:02It is the mark of the Moon Goddess, the bloodline seal passed down through generations of the Nightshade family.
02:08Whenever the moonlight changes, it burns to warn me.
02:11Demetrius stands behind me, his hand already groping toward my shoulder.
02:15Selene, come to my room.
02:17I stumble back in fright and look at him warily.
02:20If there is something you need, speak of it here, Kyren Demetrius.
02:24Demetrius grabs my wrist and strokes it slowly.
02:27The lustful way he looks at me makes my skin crawl.
02:30I said, come to my room.
02:32You need the money, don't you?
02:34I'll pay you more than enough.
02:35I shove him away with all my strength and try to run.
02:38Suddenly, screaming and crashing sounds erupt from the street outside.
02:42We both turn toward the door.
02:44A man covered in blood bursts in.
02:46The man slams the door open and begins smashing everything in sight.
02:50Demetrius is so terrified that he falls to the floor, crawls under the table, and shouts,
02:55Please don't kill me!
02:56Are you hurt?
02:57I'm Selene, the physician here.
02:59Can I help you?
02:59Helios lunges at me, grabs my shoulders, and tears my dress apart.
03:04The crescent-shaped mark high on my thigh suddenly flares with light.
03:08His blood-red eyes widen in shock.
03:10Moon goddess' bloodline, so you're the one.
03:13I curl up in the corner, covering my body with my hands.
03:16My eyes filled with fear.
03:18Helios pulls my hands away and grips my thigh.
03:21His gaze fixed on the mark high on my leg.
03:23His fingers brush it, and a sharp breath catches in my throat.
03:26What are you doing?
03:28Stop!
03:29Please stop!
03:29He yanks me toward him and kisses me hard.
03:32I struggle desperately to push him away, but I can't.
03:34A moment later, Helios finally lets me go.
03:37His eyes return to their normal color, and his breathing steadies.
03:40I collapse to the floor.
03:41My whole body is trembling, and my face has gone pale.
03:44That was my first kiss, you brute!
03:47Helios rises, his golden eyes pinning me to the floor.
03:51He takes a crescent-shaped gold token from his waist and places it in my palm.
03:56Then, he curls my fingers around it.
03:59From now on, you are under my protection.
04:02Keep it.
04:03This token can-
04:04Get away from me!
04:05He watches me walk away, then turns to the guards.
04:08Find her.
04:09She may be the only one who can help me.
04:11As I head back, I run into my sister, Lecipe.
04:14Some men have just walked her home, and she is kissing them goodbye one by one.
04:18I freeze and try to slip past her, but she spots me anyway.
04:21Selina, don't tell me you're jealous.
04:24It's not my fault men choose me over you.
04:26Look at you.
04:27Dressed like that?
04:28Are you trying to get some rich man's attention?
04:30That's disgusting.
04:32Funny how you acted so proud before.
04:34My mother and I told you from the start.
04:36If you'd sold yourself when we told you to, you could have repaid the fifty gold coins by now.
04:40She shoves me hard to the ground, and the gold token in my hand falls at her feet.
04:44She frowns, picks it up.
04:47By the gods, it's gold.
04:50Lyslipia, give it back to me!
04:52That was-
04:52Lyslipia kicks me in the stomach, and I curl up in pain.
04:56Once it's in my hands, it's mine.
04:57Wretch, you really think you can take what's mine?
05:00When I get home, the whole house is pitch black.
05:02Before I can even react, a shadow pins me against the door.
05:05The familiar smell of alcohol hits me, and I know exactly who it is.
05:09Demetrius, what the hell are you doing? Let go of me!
05:12Your stepmother sold you to me, you little bitch.
05:15That sweet innocent face of yours. I've wanted you for a long damn time.
05:19Then he lunges in and tries to kiss me.
05:21I shove him off, and run into my room.
05:24Don't come any closer! I never agreed to this!
05:27I don't even know where Demetrius found me.
05:29Suddenly, he is outside my door with a huge axe, striking the door over and over.
05:34You filthy little slut! Get out here!
05:36Your stepmother already told me every man has bedded you, and now you think you can say no to me?
05:42No! No!
05:43I run to the window, desperate to escape.
05:45I try to open it, but it has already been nailed shut.
05:48Gods! Please! Anyone! Please save me!
05:52Please save me!
05:53Demetrius smashes through the wooden door to my room.
06:04Selina!
06:06How dare you touch her!
06:08Demetrius's face twists with rage as he tightens his grip on the axe.
06:12Who the hell are you? I paid 50 gold points for her. If you want her, wait your turn.
06:18Helios raises a hand. Armed guards rush in immediately, surrounding Demetrius on all sides.
06:23Demetrius drops to his knees in terror.
06:25Prince Helios! I'm sorry! Her stepmother sold her to me!
06:29Helios drapes his cloak over me. Then he looks down at Demetrius, cold and unreadable.
06:34I'm not the one you owe an apology to.
06:36Demetrius crawls to my feet and keeps slamming his forehead into the floor until it bleeds.
06:41Blood pours down his face.
06:43Prince Helios, please! Please spare me!
06:45I glance down at him on the ground, then turn to Helios.
06:48Let him go. He already said he was sorry.
06:51Helios kicks him aside.
06:53Get out! I'll have you banished from this city site!
06:56Demetrius scrambles to his feet and runs off. The second he is gone,
07:00Helios grabs my chin and forces me to look up at him.
07:03I saved you. So how are you gonna make it up to me?
07:06I shove him back hard.
07:07Thank you, Prince Helios. Really.
07:09But I am a respectable maiden. If I owe you, I'll pay you back some other way.
07:15Helios waves the guards away.
07:17Then he drives me back onto the bed and comes down over me, all heat and weight.
07:22There's only one way to repay me. Marry me. Become mine.
07:26He leans in like he is about to kiss me.
07:28Then I hear voices outside. Lesipe and my stepmother.
07:32Mother! Look! I took this gold token from that little bitch!
07:39My clever girl. Years ago, Selina came begging us for 50 gold coins to save her mother.
07:46She never paid us back. Not one damn coin.
07:49So I sold her to Demetrius. She owed us. The gods will forgive me.
07:54Oh, mother. Really. You should be relieved.
07:58We found Selina a good home. The gods should be blessing us.
08:02I start crying before I can stop myself.
08:05You want revenge, don't you?
08:06Helios wipes the tears from my face.
08:09Marry me.
08:11Help me break this curse. And I'll help you ruin them.
08:15I look him straight in the eye. I'll do it.
08:18Helios rises and pulls me out of the bedroom with him.
08:21Then he slips back into the shadows, out of their sight.
08:24To them I am alone. My stepmother and Lesipe walk in and look startled when they see me.
08:30Selina? Why are you still up? Where's Demetrius?
08:34I stand there and say nothing. Lesipe walks over, already annoyed.
08:38Listen. We need money. You owed us those gold coins. And since you couldn't pay, we found another way to
08:46get our money back.
08:48My stepmother lights an oil lamp. The room fills with dim flickering light. Helios is still barely visible.
08:54Go get dressed. From now on you're staying here and entertaining men. They've already paid gold for you.
09:02Then Helios steps out of the darkness. His cold gaze falls on my stepmother and Lesipe.
09:07Who gave you the right to sell my future wife to another man?
09:11My stepmother stares in shock at the man who has suddenly appeared.
09:14Who the hell are you? If you want to enjoy the night with my little Selina, it's 50 gold coins.
09:20If you can't pay, then get out.
09:23Lesipe grabs her arm and tugs hard.
09:27Mother, that's Helios, the prince.
09:32She has seen him once at the palace. Then her face melts into a fawning smile.
09:37My dear Prince Helios, surely you know what Selina is like. She's been with far too many men. She's not
09:44worthy of you. But my likes a lapper.
09:47She shoves Lesipe toward him.
09:49Lesipe knocks me aside with her shoulder. Then she sidles up to Helios and wraps herself coyly around his arm.
09:55Greetings, Prince Helios. I'm Lesipe. We've met before. At the palace.
10:01Helios rips his arm free and pulls me to him instead.
10:04You are mistaken. I said Selimi is my bride.
10:07Their mouths fall open in shock and they both shake their heads in disbelief.
10:11If this is Helios' idea of revenge, I want no part of it. It is too easy. I want them
10:17to pay.
10:18Then Lesipe's gaze falls to Helios' waist. One of the gold tokens is missing. Something seems to occur to her.
10:24She reaches into her clothes and pulls out the piece she stole from me.
10:28Prince Helios, you can't marry Selimi. She's a thief. She stole this from you.
10:34Lesipe seems certain she has me now. She got close to you just for this.
10:39She couldn't pay the 50 gold coins she owed us. So she stole the gold token from you to sell
10:44it.
10:44Helios takes the gold token from her. Then he turns and places it gently back in my palm.
10:49Keep it. And don't let anyone take it from you again.
10:53Then he looks at Lesipe. All warmth is gone.
10:56Stealing from a prince is a grave crime.
11:00Guards! Seize them both! Hang them by dawn!
11:04The guards rush in and drag my stepmother and Lesipe away.
11:07One of the guards hands Helios the parchment with the contract on it. He hands it to me.
11:12Selene, this is our marriage contract. Once we're married, I expect you in my bed every third night.
11:18Every time, you'll give me blood from your crescent-shaped mark. After seven times, I'll pay you 500 gold coins
11:24and set you free.
11:25I sign my name. The parchment lights up in my hands. The contract is sealed.
11:30Helios brings me back to the palace. Then leaves in a hurry. After that everything changes.
11:35He protects me, watches over me. And in the quiet hours of the night, he is no longer only a
11:40prince trying to survive the curse.
11:42Little by little, against all reason, I begin to fall for him. Three days before his coronation, I stumble upon
11:48him in the garden talking with the prophet Tyresius.
11:51What are they talking about? Is this about the curse? Tyresius stands across from Helios, grave and unmoving.
11:57My prince, you need to decide. Your coronation is almost here. The final ritual is in three days and your
12:01curse will finally be broken. So what are you still waiting for?
12:04Helios looks annoyed. After the final time, will Selene really die? Tyresius nods firmly.
12:12Helios becomes more agitated, pacing restlessly back and forth. Hearing it all, I feel the blood drain from my face.
12:18I stagger back a few steps before turning and fleeing.
12:21I run out of the palace, confused and shaken. Why has Helios never told me any of this? I wander
12:27to the shore. Whenever I feel lost, I come to the sea. I love the sea. Then someone comes up
12:32behind me and knocks me out.
12:33When I wake up, I am tied up in a cave. My stepmother and Lysippe are staring at me like
12:38feral beasts. I gasp, my blood running cold.
12:41How are you still alive? Helios told me you were executed a long time ago.
12:46Lysippe grabs my hair and jerks my head up so I have to look at her.
12:49We barely made it out alive. And now the whole city-state is after us.
12:54My stepmother slaps me across the face.
12:56Selene Mae, I raised you for ten years! Ten years! And this is how you repay me? By letting the
13:03prince put me to death?
13:05Hear me well, Selene. I've hated you since we were children. You always had that sad little face. And everyone
13:11fell for it. Everyone wanted to protect you.
13:13You were prettier than me too. You were always the one favored by Aphrodites. Every time a man came to
13:18see me, all he saw was you!
13:20Then she slaps me hard.
13:23And now, you get to marry the prince! I'm a fugitive! How is that fair?!
13:29My lip is cut. Blood runs into my mouth. It tastes like rust. I say nothing. I just look at
13:34Lysippe. My stepmother steps over and rips the cloak off my shoulders. It is from Helios. Made of fine wool.
13:40Soft and warm.
13:41Look at this. You never had a decent robe before. And now you get to wear this?
13:47She throws it into the fire.
13:48What do you want? I finally ask. My voice shakes. Lysippe pulls a dagger from her waist. The blade flashes
13:54in the firelight.
13:55I heard if someone cuts your heart out and eats it, they can take the moon bloodline. They get the
14:00crescent mark. Then I'll marry the prince. I'll be the one who saves me. And you'll be dead for good.
14:06I stare at the dagger. My mind races. How do you know that? One of the prophet's servants. I paid
14:13a lot to make him talk. Did you truly believe I was merely cowering in the shadows?
14:19My stepmother moves to her side. The two of them flank me. Lysippe, don't do anything stupid. Even if you
14:24eat my heart, you'll still die. Breaking Helios' curse takes my life. Lysippe's face freezes.
14:30What do you mean? Listen. I have to stay alive long enough to give my blood or the curse will
14:34never be broken. If I die first, Helios is doomed. On the full moon after his coronation, he'll kill himself.
14:40And then you'll be the woman who killed the only person who could have saved him. The whole city-state
14:44will come after you. The hand holding the dagger begins to shake.
14:47You're lying. Try it. Kill me right now. Then go back to the palace and tell Moko Canik Harse. You
14:55ate my heart. See if he believes you, or just has you flayed alive.
14:59My stepmother tugs at Lysippe's sleeve. She's got a point, my child. Shut up! Lysippe snaps, jerking her arm away.
15:06She glares at me like she wants to tear me apart.
15:08Then what should I do? Just let you go? You could let me go. I'll act like none of this
15:13ever happened.
15:14Lysippe stares at me for a long time. The dagger sways in her hand. The cave goes quiet. All I
15:19can hear is the soft crackle of the oil lamp. Then she laughs.
15:23Let you go? Salome, do I look stupid to you? The second I let you out, you'll run straight to
15:30the prince and tell him where we are.
15:32Then we're dead either way. She puts the dagger away. But the look in her eyes is worse now.
15:38If I can't kill you, then I'll just take you back. You ran out because you were scared, right?
15:44We'll bring you back to him. Then I'll be the woman who saved the prince's precious bride. And then he'll
15:52marry me.
15:53Helios paces back and forth in the room. The moon has already risen. His fingers start trembling and his eyes
16:00glow red from time to time.
16:02The captain of the attendants hurries in.
16:05Prince Helios, we searched the temple by the sea. Lady Salerni wasn't there. We asked in the nearby villages too.
16:12No one has seen her.
16:13Helios forces down his anger. The blood bond is weak. She's not in the city state.
16:18He closes his eyes and presses a hand to his chest. The heat coming through the blood bond is uneven,
16:23as if something is blocking it.
16:25Send everyone out. Search every mountain, every cave.
16:29Another attendant steps forward. Prince Helios, we found Lady Salerni. Someone saw Lysippe kidnap her.
16:35Helios grabs his sword and strides out of the room. He mounts his horse and rides across the wilds with
16:41his guard.
16:41It does not take long before he spots a carriage. Stop it!
16:46The guards spur forward and surround the carriage. The driver is my stepmother. The moment she sees the armed soldiers,
16:52she gets so scared she tumbles right off the carriage.
16:54Prince! Prince Helios!
16:56Lysippe leans out from inside the carriage, her face lighting up with delight.
17:01Prince Helinus! We found Selina. She got scared and ran out of the palace. We finally found her and we
17:08were just about to bring her back.
17:10Helios jumps down from his horse, walks to the carriage, and yanks the curtain aside.
17:15Seize them both! Execute them! Now!
17:17They are dragged away, still shouting and begging Helios to spare them. He does not even look at them. He
17:23tears the ropes off me and sees the cut on my arm still bleeding.
17:27You're hurt. I'm taking you back.
17:29Helios lifts me into his arms and carries me back to the palace. I am lying in bed with a
17:34bandage wrapped around my head.
17:35I open my eyes and I see the familiar room. I am back in my chamber at the palace.
17:41Slowly, I sit up and look around. On the walls, by the table, on the windowsill.
17:46Lay shards hang everywhere. Each one has words written on it.
17:49Helios walks over and picks one up. May Helios never go mad again.
17:53He picks up another. May he live through his coronation day. Then another. May the moon goddess forgive him.
17:58I wrote every one of them by hand. He looks at the shards. His eyes rimmed red.
18:02You wrote all of these?
18:05Yes. Every night when I couldn't sleep, I wrote one.
18:08Helios is silent for a long time.
18:12You don't hate me? I forced you to marry me. And you know what happens if the curse is broken,
18:17you could die.
18:17I did hate you. But now, I lower my head, then look up again.
18:22You saved me. Twice.
18:24I get out of bed and walk up to him. Then I start taking off my clothes.
18:28Helios turns his face away.
18:30What are you doing?
18:31I press closer to him. Tomorrow is the full moon.
18:35You need me one last time, don't you? Take me.
18:38I pick up a dagger from the table and hand it to Helios.
18:41Take my blood. I'm not scared of dying.
18:44Helios stares at the dagger, but he does not take it.
18:47Do you even understand what you're asking? If I take you again, you'll die.
18:51I freeze for a second, but I still push the dagger toward his hand.
18:54You don't want to die. Neither do I. But one of us has to live.
18:57My life doesn't matter much anyway.
19:00Better me than you.
19:02You're the one who matters.
19:04I push the dagger closer.
19:05Helios looks at me. My eyes are calm. No fear. No resentment.
19:10Slowly, he steps toward me.
19:12Helios pushes me down. And tonight, he takes me with a wild, desperate passion.
19:16At the end, when he is supposed to take my blood, I close my eyes and wait.
19:20A few seconds pass. There is no pain. I open my eyes.
19:23Helios' hand is frozen in the air. The dagger is shaking.
19:27I can't do it.
19:28He drops the dagger and it clatters to the floor.
19:31Then he turns and strides to the door. I try to go after him.
19:34Helios!
19:35Helios does not turn. He pulls the door open and walks out.
19:39Helios stumbles into the temple. His eyes turn red again.
19:42The eve of the full moon has come. The curse is on the verge of breaking loose.
19:47The prophet Tyresius is sitting beside the bronze tripod.
19:50When he hears the noise, he stands up.
19:52My prince, why didn't you finish the final ritual?
19:55Helios braces himself against a pillar.
19:57Prophet, I can't do it. I can't go through with it.
20:01You pity her.
20:02Helios lifts his head. His eyes are bloodshot.
20:05No, it's not pity. I just can't let her die.
20:08Then find one! Find a way for both of us to live!
20:11Tyresius falls silent for a long time.
20:13There may be one way, but it's just an old legend. There's no proof it's true.
20:18Helios looks at him urgently.
20:20What way?
20:21Tyresius lowers himself into his seat, his body trembling.
20:25Long ago, the moon goddess Selina left behind a prophecy.
20:28The child of the sun and the moon's blood descendant must truly fall in love.
20:32On the night of full moon, they pray to the goddess together with sincere hearts.
20:35Only then can the curse be broken. Only then can they both live.
20:39Helios freezes. Then he turns to leave.
20:42Tyresius calls after him.
20:43My prince, you won't make it till tomorrow night.
20:45I can keep you alive until then, but it will bring you great agony.
20:50Tyresius lights laurel leaves, and smoke spreads through the temple.
20:54He begins to chant an ancient spell.
20:56Helios drops to his knees, both hands on the ground.
20:59The veins on his neck and arms stand out.
21:01He clenches his teeth, sweat pouring down his face, but he makes no sound.
21:04The smoke covers his whole body.
21:06His face twists at times, then goes still.
21:09A long while later, the smoke finally clears.
21:12Helios slowly gets to his feet.
21:13His face is still pale, but the red glow in his eyes has dimmed for now.
21:17Tyresius looks exhausted.
21:19You can only hold on until the next full moon.
21:23Before then, you need an answer from the goddess.
21:26As he walks out of the temple, moonlight falls across him.
21:30He looks up at the moon and says softly,
21:32The moon goddess, if you truly exist, hear my prayer.
21:38Helios stands on the temple steps.
21:40The moon casts a long shadow behind him.
21:43He is still shaking, not from the curse.
21:46From what almost happened in that room, he almost did it.
21:50The tip of the dagger was already touching Sweeney's skin.
21:53One more push, and blood would have spilled.
21:55The curse would have broken, and she would have died.
21:59He couldn't do it.
22:00Prince Helios.
22:01The captain of the guard steps out of the shadows.
22:05Word from the palace.
22:07Lady Selene is awake.
22:09She wants to see you.
22:10Helios does not move.
22:11Tell her I'm still busy.
22:13The captain hesitates.
22:15Prince Helios.
22:16Lady Selene doesn't look well.
22:18She's been crying.
22:19Get her warm wine and bread.
22:21Have the maid stay with her.
22:23I'll come back later.
22:25The captain bows and leaves.
22:28Helios stays alone under the moonlight.
22:30He looks at the silver orb hanging in the sky.
22:34What do you want from me?
22:36The moon doesn't answer.
22:38Somewhere far away, an owl cries out.
22:41Helios remembers a story from childhood.
22:43They say the moon goddess, Selene, once loved a mortal shepherd.
22:47When he died, something in her died with him.
22:50After that, she wanted nothing more to do with mortal love.
22:53If that story is true, then the curse is even harder to break.
22:57Because the goddess hates love.
22:58And anyone who dares to be happy...
23:01Helios clenches his fists hard, and his nails dig into his palms.
23:05He cannot die.
23:07Not because he is afraid of death.
23:09But because if he dies, the city-state will fall into chaos.
23:13His uncle has been after the throne for years.
23:16He is cruel and greedy.
23:18If he becomes king, the people will suffer.
23:24But Selene cannot die either.
23:26Helios recalls the first time he saw her.
23:28She was crouched in the corner of a workshop, grinding herbs.
23:31The way she looked at him was pure.
23:33No fear.
23:33No attempt to please him.
23:35She only wanted to help.
23:36No one has ever looked at him like that.
23:38When people look at him, they see a prince.
23:40The son of the sun god.
23:41The future king.
23:43Only Selene sees him as a human being.
23:46Helios turns and walks back into the temple.
23:48The prophet Tyresius is still sitting beside the bronze tripod.
23:51He holds a laurel branch over the fire, letting it burn.
23:55Smoke curls up into the air, sharp and bitter.
23:57Prophet.
23:58Tell me the truth.
24:00Is there really nothing we can do about Selene's prophecy?
24:04Tyresius looks up.
24:05His blind eyes fix on Helios.
24:07He cannot see.
24:08But he sees what most men with sight never do.
24:10My prince.
24:11What are you thinking?
24:13I've been thinking about what will happen if we do not complete the ritual.
24:16You die.
24:17When the full moon comes after your coronation, the curse will take control.
24:22You'll stab yourself in the heart.
24:24It's your destiny.
24:26But if I do it, Selene dies.
24:27Yes.
24:28So no matter what I do, someone dies.
24:31Tyresius is silent for a moment.
24:33My prince.
24:35What if the goddess doesn't want your life?
24:37Or hers?
24:38Then what does she want?
24:40She wants you to choose.
24:42Oracles are never that easy.
24:44The goddess gives you a choice, and lets you decide whose life matters more.
24:49Your life, or the girl's.
24:50If you choose yourself, she goes to Hades.
24:53If you choose her, you will be there first.
24:55There is no third path.
24:57Prophet, you said that true love and praying together can break the curse, right?
25:00That's just an old tale.
25:01No one's ever proven it true.
25:03And true love?
25:04It's more mysterious than any spell.
25:06You know what you feel is real.
25:07How do you know she feels the same?
25:09And even if she does, do you really think the goddess will accept it?
25:14I'll prove it to you.
25:16Then he leaves the temple.
