Short filmTranscript
00:12Tomorrow is my 18th birthday. I can finally leave this place for good and live with my knight, my fiancé
00:18Leon, forever.
00:23Damn, you're getting better and better at this.
00:26I only have your highness's training. I'm nothing but your loyal weapon from battlefield to bedchain.
00:33Leon, how could you do this to me? Tomorrow is the day you're supposed to come and take me as
00:39your bride. I've been waiting for this since I was 10.
00:45You're really willing to let your fiancé marry that evil dragon who feasts on brides and feel nothing at all?
00:51She's only the king's bastard after all, being able to spare you and her majesty the burden by sending her
00:57in your place.
00:58And if he rip us her before he kills her?
01:03Then her sacrifice will be even more meaningful. Her blood will buy the kingdom at least 10 years of peace.
01:08It's the best deal we could ask for.
01:27Eileen, you're not going anywhere. Come with me. We have a wedding to prepare.
01:31What's the point of preparing for a wedding? Wouldn't it be simpler to just kill me now?
01:37How could we do that? You're the princess.
01:40I never imagined that the freedom I've waited 18 years for would end like this.
01:45Because you're the filthy little snake blood half-breed father could never stand the sight of.
01:50Eileen, mind your tongue around the princess.
01:54Guards, take her. Lock her in the water dungeon.
02:01Every 10 years, the Empire must offer 10 brides to the Dragon King.
02:07Otherwise, dragon fire will rain down and burn our towns to ash.
02:12This year will be different. I only want one of you. The rest may live.
02:20My patience is running out. Otherwise, you all die.
02:28Even if I live, what then? I've never had a family who loved me.
02:33I've been a walking corpse for years, but they're different.
02:38They still have family's lovers waiting for them.
02:50Eileen!
02:53Eileen, farewell.
02:54Well, I'm sorry, Maya. I swore I'd take good care of her, but I had no choice.
02:59If I didn't do this, the people would revolt and the kingdom would fall.
03:04You're still thinking about that shameless woman?
03:06She was the one who couldn't keep her legs shut.
03:09Cheated on you with the snake folk, and that's how that little snake blood half-breed came to be.
03:13Trading her for 10 years peace is a bargain.
03:16You, on the other hand, should be worrying about your own daughter.
03:19Wickie is already 18.
03:20Prince Silmus of the Serpent Clan. May his magic truly protect Wickie and this kingdom.
03:27A wise decision, my king. I'll go make the marriage arrangements.
03:32You pathetic old fool. This crown should have been mine long ago.
03:42Who are you?
03:44Are you a dragon too? You don't bite, do you? Can I pet you?
03:48Don't touch it. That's the fierce beast of the Sky Castle, its guardian.
03:55My lord, I offered myself willingly as your bride.
03:58You can eat me if you must. Just spare the innocent commoners.
04:02In the eyes of you foolish humans, I'm nothing but a man-eating monster, am I?
04:10I don't know if you eat people or not, but...
04:14I'm hungry! I need food! Otherwise I'll starve to death here!
04:20There is no food in the Sky Castle. Drink some Sky Water and you'll feel full.
04:25I'm hungry!
04:38I'm hungry!
04:41I'm hungry!
04:46My lord wake up!
05:10Don't come any closer.
05:12This is a lady's bathroom.
05:13Men and women shouldn't share a bath.
05:15But I'm not human.
05:17That still doesn't mean you can just strip my headclaws off whenever you want.
05:22If I don't take off your clothes to wash you, how can I eat clean and delicious food?
05:28You can eat me.
05:30I'm willing to be eaten by you.
05:32But before I die, could you at least then see Li-Wan one big time?
05:36How dare you mention another man in front of me!
05:52He's actually more handsome than humans.
05:57If I looked like this, would you still reject me?
06:02Didn't you volunteer to be my bride?
06:04I won't eat you, but you must let me.
06:07Let me insert this huge thing down below into your body.
06:11What did you say?
06:12Then you should become pregnant and give birth to a more powerful dragon egg for me.
06:16But because of this, you might not be able to withstand it, facing the risk of exploding and dying.
06:24Please.
06:25Please, just eat me.
06:27How could I ever eat you?
06:30As long as you bear my egg, I'll guarantee the people of your kingdom, safe and unharmed.
06:38You swear?
06:41Of course I swear by this dragon.
07:12Who are you?
07:13Have you forgotten your own husband this soon?
07:15What are you for real?
07:17A dragon?
07:19Or a man?
07:20We dragons can take on any form we wish.
07:22But humans cursed us.
07:24When only one dragon remains in this world, the curse says he can't fully change back.
07:29Unless the bride who truly loves him bears his child.
07:33Only then will the spell be broken.
07:35So right now, you're...
07:37Last night, you took the initiative to have my descendants.
07:40So I can manage to change back halfway.
07:49Seems you're still not quite used to your husband's appearance.
07:53I could never fall in love with a beast.
07:55I have endless time to wait.
07:58Until you...
08:05It's freezing here.
08:06Can you take me away from this place?
08:08I have to get out of here.
08:10Before I die in coldness.
08:21That bitch!
08:22All of this perfect man should have been mine!
08:26My sweet girl, the Serpent Clan is way stronger.
08:29The Dragon Tribe has come down to that pathetic half-dragon, half-human freak.
08:32I don't care!
08:33That one doesn't get to walk away with this.
08:34I was supposed to be the dragon's bride!
08:36Me!
08:37Enough!
08:39You're about to be betrothed to the Serpent Prince.
08:42Watch your tongue.
08:43Father, why is Eileen still breathing?
08:45Eileen was taken by the Dragon King to save your life.
08:48Silas has already agreed to send troops against the Sky Castle and bring Eileen back.
08:51As long as she's still alive, you should pray she returns to us safe.
08:54What did you say?
08:56Are you sending an army to rescue her?
08:57It's the perfect excuse to march on the dragon.
08:59And besides, I gave Maya my word I'd look after her daughter.
09:03I won't discuss this further.
09:07Mother, it's not fair!
09:09Don't worry.
09:10Eileen will die.
09:12I can guarantee.
09:18Let me go!
09:20You...
09:21You monster!
09:23It seems I've been far too indulgent with you.
09:32Reflect on your actions here.
09:35You'll stay until you've come to your senses.
09:42Open up!
09:44Let me out!
09:51I'm so cold.
09:53I'm so hungry.
09:59The Dragon Sanctrum is no playground for mere mortal.
10:15You think you could just march in here?
10:25What a high-maintainments woman.
10:35My lord, save me.
10:38I'm freezing.
10:40Now you finally remember me.
10:43Darling, I'm sorry.
10:45I'm so hungry.
10:54Wait!
10:55It's too much!
11:02Dear lord...
11:23Keys my foot and swear it.
11:25Swear you'll kill Eileen.
11:29Eileen and I grew up together.
11:30She's like a sister to me.
11:32I...
11:32I can't raise a hand against her.
11:34Hmph.
11:38Do you actually think you're someone special?
11:39I am the princess of the Empire.
11:41I'm not asking, Leon.
11:43I'm ordering you to kill that wrench.
11:47As you command, my princess.
11:50Do this right.
11:51And Silas might just let you stay on as my little secret.
11:56My lapdog.
12:00I'll deploy my troops on one condition.
12:05You publicly declare me the rightful heir to the throne.
12:10Is the Sky Castle not enough for you?
12:12Keep it then.
12:13It doesn't matter.
12:14Once you're dead, the Empire falls to me anyway.
12:19Everything will be yours.
12:21Provided you marry my daughter.
12:23And Eileen...
12:24Must be mine...
12:27As well.
12:29Not a chance!
12:30She is Maya's daughter!
12:31Old man, the only woman I'm marrying...
12:34Is the one you've proclaimed to the world as the princess of this Empire.
12:39This Empire.
12:49My lord.
12:56Eat.
13:00You expect me to eat this raw?
13:02Just like that?
13:03How else are you supposed to eat it?
13:04You clearly have no idea that humans don't do raw.
13:08So much trouble.
13:10My lord!
13:13Hmm?
13:14My lord.
13:15How about I teach you how to grill?
13:18Absolutely not.
13:19I ref...
13:21Your turn.
13:22Light the fire, please.
13:24You want me to use my noble dragon flame to cook a fish?
13:28Exactly.
13:38Um.
13:39Would you mind if we went back and caught another one?
13:42No!
13:50Say ahhh!
13:53Ahhhhh!
14:04My bride looks after me, and me alone.
14:16That's the first time I've seen you smile.
14:36No!
14:39No!
14:51Noah!
14:53Noah! Stop! You're hurting me! Please!
15:12Noah, why did you bring me here?
15:16The wind, it feels like it's screaming.
15:19It's not the wind. It's the ghosts of my kind.
15:24Look at this cliff, Eileen.
15:25What happened here?
15:27Ten years ago, I watched my father die, pierced by human spears.
15:33I was so small, so full of hate.
15:38I jumped from this very ledge, wishing for death.
15:46But you survived.
15:52I didn't just survive. I changed.
15:55At that moment, I became the last dragon on Earth.
16:13Stop! I can hear them! The women crying!
16:18That is the legacy of my ancestors.
16:21They sang the dragon song to lure girls like you.
16:24Why? Just to kill them?
16:27To survive. To breed.
16:29But no human girl could survive the hatching of a dragon egg.
16:38They died in agony.
16:41Their bodies.
16:42They literally burst from the inside.
16:48And the dragon fire.
16:50I saw it in my dreams.
16:54My ancestors burned them alive, hoping the flames would save the eggs.
17:00It never worked.
17:06Now you know why I keep you at a distance.
17:09To touch you is to sentence you to death.
17:17He told me the truth.
17:19How every bride before me died, burned and torn apart from the inside.
17:23I should be screaming, but all I see is a man drowning in a curse.
17:27I won't let him face it alone.
17:29Get away!
17:30Didn't you hear me?
17:31If you don't run, you'll be the next name carved into these stones!
17:36My inner beast has smelled your blood.
17:38It's begging me to tear you apart!
17:41Then why are you shaking?
17:42If you were just a beast, you wouldn't be suffering like this just to warn me.
17:54Because I refuse to be a monster like my father.
17:57I won't watch you turn to ashes in the flames.
18:00Then don't be him.
18:02I'm right here.
18:03I'm not afraid.
18:05Her kindness is a trap.
18:07If I let her stay close, I will lose control and kill her.
18:11If I can't make her leave, I'll make her wish she had never stayed.
18:21You want to save me?
18:23I'll make you regret every heartbeat you spend in this castle.
18:27Noah?
18:28What are you doing?
18:30Kindness is meaningless to a monster, Eileen.
18:33Since you've chosen this fate, I will lock you away and show you the true power of the dragon.
18:39I will break you before the curse does.
18:41You're not NHS.
18:49I will blow you upon it.
18:55I will show you the verb anyone in this castle.
18:56Degasare.
19:01Oh, Lord.
19:07Come on.
19:07Hey, man.
19:22To be continued...
19:41Keep your pet quiet, or I'll feed him to the storm.
19:46You're becoming a monster before the battle even begins.
19:55Stay alive, even if you hate me.
20:02So, she likes it rough.
20:05A little Faust pay to keep the marriage spicy?
20:10Eileen, you're getting more and more to my taste.
20:15I can't wait to see you scream in my chairs.
20:19The king thinks I'm his savior. He actually believes I'll help him rescue you, his daughter, for free.
20:27Foolish old man, I will use the human army as bait to lure the dragon into my curse formation.
20:37Once the beast is trapped, I will swallow the Empire and the Sky Hustle in one bite.
20:46And you, Eileen, you are the ultimate key.
20:50You are the dragon's heart and the human princess.
20:54By making you my bride, I won't just be a king.
21:01I will be the god of the three realms.
21:04Your scream will be my victory song.
21:16I brought some food from the human realm.
21:19The kind you used to like.
21:21I don't want your cakes.
21:23I want my freedom.
21:25Freedom?
21:25Freedom?
21:26To run back to that traitor Leon?
21:28Or to be eaten by the serpents?
21:31That is my home.
21:33I won't die.
21:34Don't you understand yet?
21:36You are just a disposable pawn they can sacrifice at any moment.
21:41You have no home anymore.
21:43Your freedom is to stay right here and live.
21:49Noah, are you okay?
21:51Stop hurting yourself.
21:53I'm trying to keep you safe.
21:58Why can't you just obey me?
22:00Because I'm your woman, not your trophy.
22:03Fight the beast, Noah.
22:05Don't let it win.
22:19Stay back.
22:21The dragon, it wants to tear you apart and consume you.
22:25No, Noah.
22:26Look at me.
22:27Not with the dragon's eyes, but with yours.
22:30It's too late.
22:31The scent of your blood, it's calling to the beast.
22:34Then listen to this.
22:36This is a human heart.
22:38If you want me, you have to find your own again.
22:45Why?
22:46Why don't you run?
22:47I'm a monster, Eileen.
22:48A monster wouldn't try this hard to protect me from himself.
23:12There are thousands of them.
23:14Leon and Silas.
23:16They've actually come.
23:18They don't come for you, Eileen.
23:19They come for the power they think I possess.
23:22Noah, please, don't let the dragon take over again.
23:26I don't need the dragon for these ants.
23:28Watch.
23:34It's a slaughter.
23:38They never stood a chance.
23:40Not all of them.
23:41One rat survived.
23:49Look at you, Noah.
23:51Playing house with a human girl while your kingdom burns.
23:55You're lucky the storm hasn't ripped your tongue out yet, Silas.
23:59Oh, but you should thank me.
24:01Do you even know who you're protecting?
24:04I'm nothing to you, Simus.
24:05Leave us alone.
24:06Nothing.
24:06You're the secret daughter of the High King.
24:09The blood of the very man who hunted Noah's father to death.
24:15Is it true?
24:17You carry the blood of my father's murderer?
24:19I didn't know.
24:21Noah, I never knew.
24:24She's the bait dragon.
24:26And you fell for it.
24:42Duke, my love!
24:44Save me!
24:46Save me!
24:51I was so small.
24:54So full of hate.
24:55I jumped from this very ledge, wishing for death.
25:02The man who killed my father.
25:04He did it for Maya.
25:06You have her eyes.
25:08Tell me the truth!
25:10Maya was my mother, but I am not Duke's blood.
25:13I am the child of her shame, not his crown!
25:19Look at her, the king's pure little bird.
25:22Don't you want to see what happens when you clip her wings?
25:27And what do I get in return, my queen?
25:30Let your guards defile her.
25:32Make her your vessel.
25:34Do this, and I am yours.
25:49No!
25:55Duke, please.
25:58She has my eyes.
25:59She is innocent.
26:01Don't, don't let them kill her.
26:02Innocent, she is the living proof that you were touched by those snakes.
26:08Just let her live.
26:10As a servant.
26:11Anything.
26:13This is the serpent's filth.
26:15You are my greatest shame.
26:16You are a curse I must keep in the shadows.
26:25Noah, look at you.
26:26Guarding a woman who was born in my people's fifth.
26:29Does she smell like the snake pit yet?
26:34I will rip the tongue out of your head, Silas!
26:37She is mine!
26:39Enjoy the leftovers, dragon.
26:41When I'm done, this castle becomes my nest.
26:44And Eileen, she'll finally come home to the snakes.
27:00Attack!
27:01Kill the dragon!
27:03Bring me the girl alive!
27:04You are my son.
27:18No!
27:27Nah!
27:29I'm done!
27:29I'm done!
27:30I'm done!
27:33I'm done!
27:34All right!
27:44Your heart belongs to me now, Noah
27:48Noah, get up
27:50Don't let him take you
28:03I will tear you into bloody pieces
28:08Get out of my reel
28:12Impressive, Noah
28:13You burned half your life force just to kill a shadow
28:18A shadow?
28:21I am everywhere
28:24And I am nowhere
28:26If a mere projection could break your wings
28:30Imagine what I will do when I arrive in person
28:34Next time it won't be a test
28:36It will be your funeral
28:40And Eileen will finally have a real king
28:48Noah!
28:49Noah!
28:49No, please, my lord, don't die
28:51Don't leave me alone in this darkness
29:04Noah, look at me
29:05His words are just poison
29:07I am here
29:08I am not going anywhere
29:10I should have burned them all
29:12I'm still a monster to them
29:13And maybe to you too
29:15No
29:16You are the man who saved me
29:19But if you keep acting like a beast
29:21You're just giving them what they want
29:28And what do you want
29:29And what do you want, Eileen?
29:30I want a husband
29:32Not a weapon
29:36Learn to control the fire inside, Noah
29:39If you want me to stay
29:41Show me you can be more than just a dragon
29:52How is she still alive?
29:57That servant should be dragon beat
30:00Simus, go get her
30:01Bring her back so I can make her pay myself
30:06Did I hear a command, Wiki?
30:08I...
30:09I am the princess
30:11You are my fiancée
30:14You are nothing but a pawn for this alliance
30:17Don't mistake a snake's patience for loyalty
30:26I'll bring the dragon back
30:27But the girl
30:28She belongs to me now
30:33A pawn?
30:34You think I'm just a piece on your board?
30:38I am the blood of the Empire
30:41If Silas wants that servant so badly
30:43He can have her corpse
30:45I'll burn the Sky Castle to the ground
30:48Before I let her take my throne
30:49Or my man
30:52You want to see her scream, Silas?
30:58I'll make sure she's screaming for mercy
31:01When she meets her end
31:06Too hard, Noah
31:07You're trying to touch me, not crush a stone
31:10Again
31:13This is ridiculous
31:14My claws are for killing
31:16Not for stroking skin
31:19If you want to be with me
31:21You have to learn
31:22Softly, like a breeze
31:24Is this
31:25What humans call gentle?
31:29Yes
31:30And try not to singe my hair with your breath next time
31:36You are a very demanding bride, Eileen
31:45And I have kept my promise
31:47I am listening to you now
31:49But Eileen
31:50I need you to feel my world too
31:53Not just the one you imagined
31:54But the one I truly live in
31:56You must see the sky through a dragon's eyes
32:00Not just a prisoner's
32:04Noah, the heights
32:07They remind me of the storm
32:09Of the way you grabbed me in the darkness
32:11I'm afraid of that power
32:15The storm is only one side of me
32:18Humans fear the wind
32:19Because it can tear down houses
32:21But they forget it's the same wind that carries a bird home
32:26It sounds so violent
32:27It feels like it's screaming
32:29Listen closer
32:31If you don't fight it
32:32The wind becomes a cradle
32:37Close your eyes, Eileen
32:38Trust me
32:39I want to show you the world
32:41Not as a battlefield
32:42But as a masterpiece
32:48Noah, we're going too fast
32:50Please put me down
32:52Look at your eyes, Eileen
32:53Look at what it means to be a dragon
33:05It's beautiful
33:07The world looks so small from here
33:10The humans only see the storm
33:13They never look high enough
33:15To see the peace above it
33:18I'm not afraid anymore
33:20With you, I feel free
33:23Then stay here
33:24Be the only light in my endless sky
33:41Eileen, there is a reason I haven't claimed you yet
33:45I thought you were just trying to be human for me
33:48It's more than that
33:49To truly stabilize my power
33:51We must perform the great rule of the dragons
33:53A wedding?
33:55A soulbinding
33:56Our hearts must beat as one during the union
33:58Only then will the beast truly submit to my will
34:00You mean
34:03If we don't do this
34:04You'll never be able to control the dragon?
34:06If I don't, I will eventually lose my mind
34:09But I won't force you
34:10Show me the way, Noah
34:12I want to be your bride
34:22A hundred years of darkness
34:24I thought that's all I deserved
34:27Anger kept me alive
34:29I figured one day it'd swallow me whole
34:31I was just waiting to die
34:34My whole life, I've been invisible
34:37No one wanted me in that palace
34:39I was a shadow with no name
34:42A servant
34:44Until
34:45You were never invisible to me
34:48The moment you stepped onto that sacrificial ship
34:51You became the only place I could breathe
34:54A human heart
34:56Taught the beast how to feel
34:59Then let the girl with no home find one in your arms
35:03I don't need a palace, Noah
35:05I just need you
35:07Everything else, I can learn
35:12This is my vow
35:13As long as the sky remains
35:16And the dragon fire burns
35:17You are no servant
35:19You are the only queen
35:22Of the sky
35:24Aelin, will you bind your soul to mine
35:27Through blood and breath
35:29Through fire and eternity
35:30Yes, a thousand times, yes
35:33I choose you, Noah
35:35In this life
35:36And every life that follows
35:47Noah, just now
35:50What is it?
35:52Nothing
35:53Maybe my eyes were just bluttered by tears
36:03It's on, finally
36:05Enjoy the wedding gift I've given you both
36:14My ancestors used this altar to shackle their brides
36:17To force a union
36:19But I have cleared the blood of the past
36:22Today, this place will witness a union of choice
36:26Does the ceremony scare you, Noah?
36:29I can feel your heart racing
36:31It scares me that I might fail you
36:33The ritual will drop my barriers
36:35For one hour I will be as vulnerable as a human child
36:39But it is the only way to kill the beast inside me
36:41And become the man you deserve
36:43You are already that man, Noah
36:45The beast is just a shadow
36:48Don't do this for the ritual
36:49Do it for us
36:56I will give you a wedding that the legends will sing about
36:59A wedding where the dragon finally finds his peace
37:03And the girl finally finds her throne
37:13That's strange
37:15Huh?
37:16Maybe I'm just too excited
37:18My heart
37:19It feels like it's beating incorrectly
37:22Mine too
37:24For a hundred years
37:25It's the first time my heart has raced like this
37:29Beat away, little bride
37:31When your heartbeat sinks with mine
37:34You will know who your true master is
37:37Shh
37:42Is he coming?
37:46Close call
37:47We have to finish this tonight, Ollie
37:52Tomorrow, I want to see the dragon king's eyes
37:54When he realizes he's no longer alone
38:01Am I just too tired?
38:04It's nothing
38:05Maybe it's just the moonlight
38:13Alright
38:14Coffee
38:15You
38:15You
38:17You
38:18You
38:24You
