00:16For too long,
00:18Thesian IV has been bereft of the Emperor's light.
00:22Like so much of our benighted Imperium, it clings on.
00:26A candle flickering in darkness.
00:29Our mission is of sacred importance.
00:34The enshrinement of our fallen Hallinus, Rhexia.
00:38She will be a beacon, a rising call to the faithful.
00:43She will mark Thesian IV as a shrine world.
00:48The Emperor's flock will come, and with their new hope,
00:53the foulness of the orcs shall be driven from this place.
00:57We shall risk everything for this.
01:02We will not fail.
01:05For to do less would be to fall short of what our Emperor demands.
01:10By fire and faith, we can...
01:14Watch...
01:23Let's go.
01:46His test begins.
02:15Thank you for sparing me, so that I might be redeemed in return to the Greece, and that of the
02:20sisterhood.
02:39Are they, Imperator?
02:44Show yourself!
02:52Sister!
02:53I feared I alone had survived.
02:56Had that been so, our cause would surely have been lost.
03:00Then I am grateful to have been wrong.
03:06Keep it safe.
03:08It is worth more than your life.
03:10More than any of our lives.
03:12It must be preserved.
03:13At all costs.
03:14I know, sister.
03:16I will see it done.
03:19See that you do.
03:24The others.
03:27Silence is a virtue, Novitiate.
03:47God, Emperor, take your just servants to thy side and guide their souls eternal.
03:55By the blessings of Saint Arabella, and the order of the sacred rose, I commit you to the glory of
04:05the golden throne.
04:12Allow me to recite the prayer of passing.
04:15Have we time?
04:16The Emperor in his grace has spared us.
04:19Our task remains urgent.
04:21You dare!
04:23Better you and I than a single wound had marred their holy flesh.
04:28Forgive me.
04:29I...
04:30I meant only...
04:31Your self-interest betrays you.
04:33Temperant sister.
04:35The Novitiate is right.
04:37We shall pay our respects, but swiftly.
04:41We cannot afford to linger here.
04:51I am sorry, Palatine Zaragoza.
04:54I only desire for us to achieve our mission.
04:58And to redeem yourself for your transgression?
05:02Of course, Palatine.
05:04It...
05:05This is my only chance to atone.
05:10Then be sure you don't waste it.
05:21This is our path.
05:23The high ground will give us the best vantage over the orcs.
05:28Forgive me, Palatine.
05:30But would this route not be faster?
05:32That's mud ash, Novitiate.
05:34If it's deep, there may be no way to cross.
05:37Either dead or we'll sink in our armor and be easy prey for the orcs.
05:56We take the ridge and then make for the canyon road.
05:59The temple we seek is not far from here.
06:02It is fortified and well protected.
06:06We need only reach it.
06:21Oh, we wouldn't.
06:22Now put them down, put them down.
06:27Get all them parts.
06:29We need them.
06:30The ship ain't gonna build itself.
06:34And we are big and two.
06:37Then take us back.
06:39To follow the green.
06:41So we can join the fight.
06:44And follow the world!
06:58But first, the boss wants to deal with the homies.
07:21What is that?
07:23Trouble.
07:39Hold back!
07:50The Emperor protects.
07:59Bentia, stay low.
08:01Keep behind me.
08:02Brumina!
08:11Move!
08:12Get out!
08:44Let's go.
09:12Let's go.
09:26Menthia, keep watch.
09:33Why did you shield her?
09:34Does the Emperor not teach us that we must be shepherd and shield of our flock?
09:40Even for one so disgraced?
09:43If walking in faith were easy, sister, we would not be so blessed for our labors.
09:49The Emperor will see us through this.
09:52We must first help ourselves by getting through these damnable ashwaves.
09:57Contact!
10:01Move!
10:14Blood of the Saint.
10:18We have no choice, sisters.
10:20We must attempt the crossing.
10:23It is now or never.
10:26The Emperor, preserve us.
10:30It is now or never.
10:30It is now or never.
10:32It is now or never.
10:37It is now or never.
10:38It is now or never.
10:40It is now or never.
10:42It is now or never.
10:43It is now or never.
10:44It is now or never.
10:44It is now or never.
10:45It is now or never.
10:45It is now or never.
10:47It is now or never.
10:48It is now or never.
10:48It is now or never.
10:50It is now or never.
11:16I'll get her, Palatine.
11:18Make for the edge.
11:43The relic.
11:45Take the relic.
11:59Shepard and shield indeed.
12:05Hold your tank.
12:16Come on, my sisters.
12:21The Saint Arabella, I beseech you to grant me the strength and forditch you to see me through this trial.
12:28Cast upon me, Ormant.
12:31It's heard, my flesh, that it might help me carry this person.
12:55Thank you, sister.
12:57I...
13:05Merciful Emperor.
13:15The End
13:15crab
13:16With pizza
13:16And save you to the intéress and labor of trouble.
13:17I don't know.
13:59I don't know.
14:22I don't know.
15:00I don't know.
15:28I don't know.
15:49I don't know.
16:15I don't know.
16:17I don't know.
17:05I don't know.
17:08I don't know.
17:13I don't know.
17:17I saw a moment of faith in that stone.
17:22True faith.
17:27Permission to speak openly, Palatine.
17:30I was not aware you had been holding your tongue, but go on.
17:37I wish I possessed the relic.
17:40Yet all I see is a relic.
17:43She lost the relic.
17:45And did she not find it?
17:47And did she not then find it?
17:48A blessed feat in that storm.
17:51Wouldn't you agree?
17:53Perhaps.
17:54Perhaps.
17:55Still, given its importance, the relic should stay with you or I as a precaution.
18:01No.
18:02Every soul must be afforded the opportunity for redemption.
18:07This is Venthyr's act of atonement.
18:13My mind is decided.
18:28Search the storeroom and see if there's anything amongst this mess we can put to use.
18:34Let us hope the saint smiles upon us still.
18:37At once, Palatine.
18:40But first, I would ask something of you.
18:46Was it faith?
18:47The light in the storm?
18:49Did we do that?
18:51Did I?
18:53Perhaps.
18:55It was ordained.
18:56I cannot say.
18:57All we can do is accept this blessing and strive to be worthy of it.
19:03I...
19:04In the storm...
19:06I thought we were lost.
19:10We were.
19:21Venthyr.
19:22It is only the lost who can ever truly find him.
19:28It is in accepting this that we begin to find the path he would have us walk.
19:36As you counsel, Sister Palatine.
20:01I miss your guidance, Rexilla.
20:05I fear we are found wanting in your absence.
20:10I have tried to lead them as best I can.
20:13Oh, Ludmilla has courage and fervor.
20:18But it leaves her blind to certain truths.
20:23And Saint, judge me.
20:26I see potential in Venthyr.
20:29As you once saw in me.
20:31But I have been wrong before.
20:37Perhaps our reunion at the Emperor's side will not be as long in coming as either of us thought.
20:45I hope my faith guides me to you.
20:51I believe it will.
20:56We have toyed long and hard to bring Canoness Rexilla to the rest.
21:01But we are not done.
21:03What have you found?
21:05Demolition charges.
21:07And a pair of magnoculars.
21:08Still functional.
21:09And this.
21:10A pain suppressor.
21:12I would meet the Emperor.
21:15Clear-minded.
21:18Sit with me.
21:22Rexilla was my old palatine.
21:25Before she became Canoness.
21:28I've never met a braver and more faithful servant of the God Emperor.
21:34She saw something in me.
21:37As I could not see in myself.
21:39I was far from the model novitiate.
21:42I made mistakes.
21:44She offered me a chance at redemption.
21:50Forged me into a better warrior.
21:54A leader.
21:56Strength does not lie in the absence of weakness.
22:01But in the act of purging it.
22:05Rexilla taught me that.
22:08I saw her in the storm.
22:11Canoness Rexilla?
22:13No.
22:15At least I don't think so.
22:18Isabel then.
22:24Then perhaps you will not face the trials ahead alone.
22:53God Emperor.
22:55I beseech you.
22:57Guide palatine Saragossa to thy side.
23:00And guard her soul and Venom.
23:19Take your faithful servant into your embrace.
23:23Hold her up.
23:25In glory everlasting.
23:28Saint Arabella.
23:29I commit her soul to you.
23:33May it find safe harbor.
23:35By your guiding light.
23:53I am carrying on.
23:55Either you are with me.
23:57Or I take the relic from you and go alone.
24:01Make your choice.
24:08All them kings are leaving.
24:10And so should we.
24:13The whole world is cooling.
24:15Some of the boys have already wandered off.
24:18And so.
24:20Deserters.
24:21Or sage we hunting humans first.
24:24We hunt humans first.
24:27The thinking.
24:29They might be right, Snazog.
24:32I don't wanna miss you on the biggest fight ever.
24:35You wanna be stuck in some stinking ship's belly.
24:40Chewing on croc bones.
24:41These.
24:42Then that's right.
24:44We hunt.
24:45We hunt.
24:46We hunt.
24:49We hunt.
24:51You.
24:51Oh God.
24:56Goody.
24:57At the moment.
24:58fanny.
24:59I am his ready store.
25:02Oh willing servant for his glory.
25:04Show us the way, oh venerated emperor.
25:08Guide us, oh emperor.
25:10Be our shield and our beacon.
25:12Sister, we cannot simply wonder and hope.
25:15We need to find our bearings.
25:17Willing so long.
25:19Show us the way.
25:20O venerate the Emperor.
25:22We passed that rock not a mile back.
25:25Sister.
25:26Ludmilla.
25:27Please.
25:28We are turning in circles.
25:34You are found wanting.
25:36No shit.
25:37Weak.
25:38The Emperor has no need.
25:39Of the weak.
25:40Only faith will grant us the strength to mature.
25:43I have faith, sister.
25:45I also cannot deny the evidence of my eyes.
25:48We shall die here.
25:49Our task unfulfilled if we carry on like this.
25:52Your sin is why we fail.
25:54Why this world taunts us.
25:56I never understood what Saragossa saw in you.
26:00I see you for what you are.
26:03I did not.
26:04I...
26:05Training all or not.
26:06It is still the blood of a sister you spilled.
26:09Was your pride worth Isabel's life?
26:13I...
26:14I don't know.
26:54I'm not going to die.
27:21In this dark hour, keep my soul anchored true.
27:27Guide my way that I may carry his light through this darkness and be a portion of your will to
27:32you.
27:45Cancerous breed!
27:53Don't you are too scrawny to be an orc?
27:56Fitty.
28:05Let me help you.
28:08Please, sister.
28:11Saragoza gave her life for this, and I know I am not worthy of that sacrifice.
28:16But we are all that is left.
28:18We cannot let pride get in the way.
28:22Ours is a sacred task.
28:28Very well.
28:29You can help me walk, Novichit.
29:00There.
29:02Is that...
29:09Deliverance, sister.
29:11Praise the Emperor.
29:33We're almost there.
29:34We're almost there.
29:52I'll escape this time she may escape.
30:13We have to go.
30:25Prove me wrong.
30:29On your feet?
30:31No.
30:32Give me the charge.
30:34Now.
30:42Be worthy of the sacrifice.
30:53Go.
30:53Run!
31:02Oh, my God.
31:26For St. Arabella.
31:41For my sisters.
32:04The saints carry you home.
32:54I am Novitiate Venthea of the Sacred Rose.
32:57I come on holy pilgrimage, bearing the remains of Cananas Rexilla of my order.
33:03I ask for admittance to your temple, so that I may enshrine her.
33:08I am the impurator.
33:52I don't know.
34:08I don't know.
34:08Are we in front of it?
34:17Didn't think anyone was making out that rubble.
34:23The ship's ready.
34:25It's time to...
34:28They are all in all the boys.
34:32The moi is calling.
34:35He is calling.
34:38Gaskell.
34:39The big boss.
34:41Biggest of all the bosses.
34:44We're headed to the war world.
34:47Back to Armageddon.
34:51Not you though!
34:53No!
34:53No!
34:55No!
34:58No!
34:58No!
35:00No!
35:02No!
35:08No!
35:18No!
35:19No!
35:30No!
35:32No!
35:32No!
35:33No!
35:35No!
35:38Praise the Emperor, sisters. We are blessed.
35:41An Avishian.
35:43At prayer within the temple.
35:48After so many cycles, we had begun to wonder if our message had been lost to the Void.
35:54Your Avishian, Sister Venthia, she has been a blessing on this temple.
36:00Since her coming, we have seen nothing of the Orc menace.
36:04We did not know how much longer we could hold out and then gone.
36:10It's a miracle.
36:12Careful, priest. Damned is the soul lost to falsehood.
36:22Oh, praise him. You're here. My sisters, welcome.
36:32Forgive me, Sister Superior. Truly, this is a blessed day.
36:47This is authentic. This is the skull of the Canoness Rexilla.
36:53Of course. It is-
36:55Take her.
36:57W-what?
36:59No.
37:00Wait.
37:01Honored sister, I don't understand. The relic was delivered.
37:05Canoness Rexilla enshrined. All is right-
37:08But in the early days, you will not know how much more.
37:14Are you living here?
37:15I'm living here?
37:26If the one's only known, it's the middle of this temple.
37:28I have to have loved it, I have to have loved it.
37:31That's all, thank you.
37:31I will be.
37:32Of course.
37:37The evil of the Lord.
37:38A king of the Lord.
37:38I am no. I am no Repentia. I did not flee in battle. I did not commit a cardinal sin.
37:44Please, Goddard, do not put me in there. Do not shuttle me to that machine. Please.
37:50Do not deserve it. This is wrong. No. Palatine Zaragoza said I would be forgiven.
37:58Sister Zaragoza is dead. I never agreed with her assessment of your character, Venthia.
38:04And she cannot stand before us and speak of your atonement.
38:08Zaragoza was among the best of us, yet here you stand in her place.
38:13Punishment is due. For the killing of a fellow novitiate.
38:18For the sin of pride that led to this death.
38:21For your failure to martyr yourself here alongside your fellow sisters.
38:25For these great crimes you are condemned.
38:29Your efforts have saved you from death.
38:31And you are blessed to be able to serve the god-emperor still, as all the faithful must.
38:38But you will know pain for your transgressions.
38:43No. No. No. No!
38:49No!
