00:00Could he get this thing out of me?
00:02You'll need a guide. Joran's a good guide.
00:04You like books, young lady?
00:08Hunter!
00:10She can beat me.
00:15What's going on?
00:16Payment on delivery.
00:19Hunter!
00:20He will see you now.
00:40I am Thomas, Featherwell Rye, master of this castle, and known to some as the Archivist.
00:51Welcome you, Marvin.
00:53I was dragged into a carriage by two of your goons.
00:58Did they hurt?
00:59I regret a cesspool like the heretics market is not a place for subtlety or manners.
01:04Or common sense.
01:06I've been on my way to you for weeks.
01:09You didn't need to hire brutes to compel me.
01:13I understand your friend, Hunter.
01:15My guide and I had an agreement to get me to you.
01:21Evidently, it's worked out. Just as you intended.
01:27May I?
01:32You can count the dots.
01:36They're all there.
01:41Forgive me, I never thought I would see this in my lifetime.
01:45A new Mari.
01:49May I ask what gifts it grants you?
01:51There's been so many stories.
01:53Hardly gifts.
01:55People have died.
01:57And lived.
01:58I understand.
02:07My hospitality has been appalling.
02:09You must be exhausted.
02:11Jaggery, please show our honored guest to her room.
02:16Very good, Rai.
02:19Young Jorunn left this for the lady.
02:45I am.
03:14Easy bit later.
04:15Hi, lady.
04:23It's all right.
04:25Your mayor, is it?
04:28Call me Wren.
04:31I won't hurt you.
04:34I'm sure you wouldn't, miss.
04:35But can you be saying the same of the spirit?
04:39Nirith gave you that mark for a reason.
04:41To warn good folk away from the thing within you.
04:45But Nirith created the Mari from her father's last breath.
04:50To be sure, but they grew wicked after.
04:53All the people Lord Montfort killed.
04:56The Knath saved us from him.
04:57And from the evil of the spirits.
05:00Spirits can heal as well.
05:03I've seen it.
05:07I've done it.
05:10No one ever told us the Numari could do that.
05:14I've never heard such a thing, to be sure.
05:17No.
05:18We shouldn't keep the Rye waiting.
05:21How old do you know him?
05:25My family have served the Rye and his family for many years.
05:29The whole castle was once as grand as the Leith Hall.
05:33Times may be hard.
05:34But he's always treated us well.
05:38He's a good man.
05:39So he is.
05:54I trust that the dress is to your liking.
05:57Few have seen my little collection.
06:03Needless to say, the Knath would not approve.
06:05Fortunately, the castle has some interesting original features.
06:26After you.
06:46There's a lot of people.
06:48There's a lot of people.
06:52There's a lot of people.
06:52There's a lot of people.
06:53There's a lot of people.
06:54There's a lot of people.
06:54There's a lot of people.
06:54There's a lot of people.
06:56There's a lot of people.
06:57There's a lot of people.
06:59There's a lot of people.
07:15Let's go.
07:36Collected over the years.
07:38It all started in Helgoth.
07:40The power I still teach in that cursed place, I assume.
07:44The insurrection.
07:46They defied the canal.
07:48Helgoth were on the edge of my father's estate.
07:51The entire third army swept through to the rage that had not been seen since the seven-year war.
07:57My earliest memory was seeing the sky turn black with smoke.
08:01Afterwards, my father took me to the ruins.
08:05Everything he built, destroyed.
08:09Such senseless waste.
08:12And all those people killed?
08:15There was a woman.
08:17They say executed by the Knath Master.
08:21She must have been someone of mine.
08:24I saw her body.
08:24She died clutching the child's toy.
08:28An apple beautifully whittled.
08:32My father wasn't looking.
08:35He took it.
08:37And that was the first artifact of my collection.
08:41But that was what you saw.
08:43The treasure to be hoarded.
08:45Not hoarded.
08:47Preserved.
08:50When the ruins and the bones of the dead are gone, I could still hold in my hand the last
08:56memory of Helgoth's revolt.
08:59Learn from it.
09:02Knowledge is power, Wren.
09:05The Knath know this.
09:08That's why they control the truth so tightly.
09:11And where is this treasure now?
09:14I have others that are far greater.
09:23The battle of Knath, then.
09:25Where Lord Montford of Dalmoth and the twelve families took their final stand against the king's army.
09:32They say that Lord Montford conjured a storm that lasted ten days and ten nights.
09:37A storm?
09:41The power to control the elements themselves.
09:49This is a fragment of his armor.
09:58The Knath's glorious victory at Knath-tena.
10:0152nd year of the griffin.
10:21A century has got a blink of an eye from the Mario.
10:24Of course.
10:27Even the Mario and I were incredibly long-lived.
10:3352nd year of the Griffin.
10:3452nd year of the Griffin.
10:3752nd year of the Griffin.
10:3852nd year of the Griffin.
10:3852nd year of the Griffin.
10:3952nd year of the Griffin.
10:3955nd year of the Griffin.
11:02You are as one, newly formed, in the light of Nireth, she has called you to her purpose.
11:13Tala, of the Holland Sea, you are Novari.
11:19In the light of Nireth?
11:20In the light of Nireth.
11:36I paint theers of the Shhhu of office.
11:37In the light of Nireth?
11:51It affects 7000 years forever.
11:52If your bonding with the spirit was an accident, may I ask, how did you come by a Mahari right
11:58-handed?
12:04This is all very impressive, but I didn't come here to learn about the Mahari. I came here to get
12:09it out of me.
12:12The first new Mahari in a century. And you would reject that honour.
12:16Can you do it? Because if not, I thank you for your hospitality, but I need to leave.
12:24Here.
12:29The pride of my collection.
12:33All rescued from the Carnath's book burnings during the cleansing.
12:37Reading tutors are not easy to come by these days. It has taken me years to learn this skill.
12:44Although there are texts here that I still cannot fathom.
12:49I believe that this is a spell book.
12:52Although, it defies all my attempts at interpretation.
12:58The language is just so ancient.
13:02I'm told that it predates the North Kings.
13:06But these diagrams here...
13:08Broke it down.
13:11The sundering of a host from the Mahari.
13:14You can read it.
13:19Nath-Wolf's claw, steeped in boiling salt water, over a flame of Aika wood, beneath Nardeif's tears, shall they be
13:29riven.
13:30This is it. This is how to get it out with...
13:34Nardeif's tear.
13:37The full moon?
13:38Three weeks.
13:44Ruka hail.
13:46The bonding of a Mahari with a host.
13:50A...
13:51Eye of Nirith, cold with silver.
13:55Set aflame its dust of them all.
13:59Rem, I have devoted my life to learning about the Numari.
14:03I did not seek Aretha merely to lock the spirit away.
14:08As a Numari, with all the gifts that it would bestow, I might repair all that the Kanath have broken.
14:17Do me the honour.
14:19Allow me to take this burden from you.
14:21Your name is ho.
14:37I will take this burden from you, while you are dying.
14:38Not good luck, I will take this burden of a witness.
14:40I will take this burden of a man.
14:41You will not have a witness right now.
14:41It's a extreme burden of a witness.
14:43The body of a witness.
14:45The body of a witness.
