Short filmTranscript
00:00The Celestial Sanctuary. Nine Orders above. Those with pure cores dwell in the clouds. The Corrupted fall into the Abyss.
00:08The Fallen. Stripped of their seal. Wings severed. Cast out forever. No pardon.
00:18Lady Eleanor. These are all the corruption signatures detected in the Lower Sanctum today. One of them. The intensity is
00:25off the charts. The rot's already deep in the core. Anyone in close contact with it will be infected.
00:30A name.
00:33Viola. Attendant Angel. Assigned to the Third Legion.
00:48Under Lord Orion's command.
00:53Lord Orion. Your light. So comforting.
00:58Stop this, Viola. I hold a covenant with Eleanor. This is a line I won't cross.
01:02Oh, don't pretend. Didn't you say Lady Eleanor was rather dull?
01:06Wait. This isn't the time I still carry Eleanor's covenant.
01:17Orion. You chose to betray me. So be it. Let's see if you're ready to fall right alongside her.
01:28I swear on my name as God you. You are my only bond.
01:36I will never betray you.
01:39The covenant endures. The covenant endures.
01:47If a covenant means so little, then I'll drag you both into the Abyss myself.
01:57Eleanor. What brings you here?
01:59What? Am I not allowed?
02:02Of course you are. It's just... You're usually at the Hall of Sacred Healing this time of day.
02:05I received some interesting news today. Finished up early?
02:12Viola.
02:15Eleanor. Viola's not here.
02:17I sent her out on an errand.
02:18Is that so?
02:20Of course.
02:20Damn it. Did she see her or not?
02:24Eleanor.
02:26What made you come to the throne room today?
02:28You usually hate it here.
02:30Since when do we need a reason to see each other?
02:33No. Of course not. I just...
02:35Your collar's cryptid.
02:41Eleanor.
02:43It's our fifth covenant anniversary today.
02:47Come back to the sanctum tonight.
02:50I have a surprise for you.
03:01My lady.
03:03My lady.
03:04My lady was standing outside the throne room door for quite some time.
03:09Your legs must be tired.
03:12Move.
03:14He says my lady is like a dad fish in bad.
03:18So he came to me instead.
03:21Just taking out the trash.
03:24You...
03:32Lady Linnard.
03:34I know I was wrong.
03:36But you can't just...
03:38Help!
03:44Eleanor.
03:46Have you lost your mind?
03:48Orion.
03:49I never touched her.
03:50She threw herself at me.
03:52Lord Orion.
03:54Don't blame Lady Eleanor.
03:56It was my fault.
03:58I said something I shouldn't have.
04:00I upset her.
04:02Do you believe her?
04:04Or me?
04:05Shh.
04:10Her core.
04:11It's fracturing.
04:13What did you do to her?
04:15You've changed, Eleanor.
04:17You're not the woman I swore my oath to anymore.
04:25I wouldn't be a guardian without your house.
04:28I swear to you.
04:30I will always fight for you.
04:34You once swore you'd fight only for me.
04:37Five years.
04:39That's all it took for you to find someone else to protect.
04:42Fine.
04:43If she's your choice.
04:45Then fall into the Abyss with her.
04:47Take her and go.
04:54Wyn.
04:55Thank you for taking out the drash for me.
05:08Still upset.
05:09I cleared all my patrol duties for tomorrow.
05:13I just want to be with you tonight.
05:16Break the covenant.
05:19No.
05:19I won't break it.
05:21We've been together five years.
05:22Eleanor, I just...
05:23I had a moment of weakness.
05:25She came on to me and I...
05:26You just didn't stop her.
05:28Do you have to talk like that?
05:30I came back to make things right.
05:31Not to stand trial.
05:33Make things right.
05:34You don't even know what you did wrong.
05:36Lord Orion, please help me.
05:38It hurts so much.
05:39Lady Eleanor gave the order.
05:41No one is allowed to heal me.
05:43My lord, I'm so scared.
05:46Don't be afraid.
05:47I'm coming.
05:49Step out that door.
05:50And you'll regret it.
05:52The only thing I regret is swearing that oath to you five years ago.
05:57Orion.
05:59You just took the step toward your own fall.
06:10Orion.
06:12My lord.
06:13Lord, you came.
06:15Don't talk.
06:15I'm taking you to the Hall of Sacred Healing.
06:17You can't go to the Hall.
06:19Lady Eleanor gave the order.
06:21No angel is allowed to heal me.
06:23If you go there, you'll be defying her command.
06:26They'll exile you too.
06:28If I go to the Hall, they'll discover my core has been corrupted this whole time.
06:33I've hidden it for so long.
06:37I can't let it all fall apart now.
06:40A little wound like this.
06:41I'm not worth you risking everything for me.
06:44She can't do this to you.
06:46You've done nothing wrong.
06:47Nothing wrong.
06:48I fell in love with the wrong person.
06:51Doesn't that count?
06:52My lord.
06:53I don't regret it.
06:54Even if I die.
06:55I'll never regret meeting you.
06:57If only I had met you sooner.
07:03Viola!
07:06I'll save you.
07:08I swear I'll save you.
07:10Break the covenant.
07:11Then form a new one with Viora.
07:14Use my light to repair her core.
07:16It's the only way.
07:19But if I do this,
07:22I'll have betrayed Eleanor completely.
07:26The covenant is a term.
07:30Eleanor.
07:32I'm sorry.
07:45Eleanor.
07:46He broke it after all.
07:48What he doesn't know is.
07:51His fall is already beyond saving.
07:59Viola.
08:00In the name of the Guardian,
08:02I bind myself to you in covenant.
08:13My lord's light.
08:15It's so warm.
08:17Warmer than I ever imagined.
08:22She pushed me to this.
08:24Elenir broke the covenant first.
08:26This isn't betrayal.
08:28It's not.
08:32Orion.
08:34Viola.
08:35By Article 7 of the Codex of the Celestial Sanctuary,
08:38you are both suspected of violating the covenant's decree.
08:42You are to be detained pending further examination by the Hall of Sacred Healing.
08:49Detained, Eleanor.
08:50Have you lost your mind?
08:52Yesterday you attacked her,
08:53and I let it go.
08:55Now you show up with guards?
08:56Because I broke the covenant?
08:58Take them.
09:02Try it!
09:05Elenir, I know you hate me for breaking the covenant.
09:07But that was my fault, not hers.
09:10Lady Elenir, you must punish someone.
09:15Punish me alone.
09:16Lord Arian was only trying to save me.
09:18He did nothing wrong.
09:21Viola, you don't have to make excuses for her.
09:27Elenir, you used your authority at the Hall of Sacred Healing to block Viola from receiving aid.
09:32You are not fit to stand as the head of the angels.
09:34I demand a trial of sacred light against you.
09:37My lord, please don't go this far for me.
09:40Viola, she's not fit to judge us.
09:43She's the one who should be judged.
09:47Fine.
09:49I accept a trial of sacred light, all three of us, but one condition.
09:56Once the verdict is given, no one objects.
09:59Before the light, there is no privilege, no favor.
10:05Agreed.
10:06No, no.
10:07I can't undergo the trial.
10:09If I do, I'll be completely exposed.
10:12My lord, my wound, it hasn't healed yet.
10:18Don't be afraid.
10:19I'm with you.
10:20The light only purges evil.
10:22You're innocent.
10:23You'll be fine.
10:24I...
10:25Viola, what are you so afraid of?
10:29I...
10:29I'm not afraid.
10:30I'm just...
10:31worried about the lord.
10:34Then let's go.
10:41I'll make you regret this.
10:48The trial of sacred light.
10:50The pure shall stand unharmed.
10:53The corruptage will burn in agony.
10:57Elinor, today's the day you fall from your throne.
11:02Orion, you should be worrying about yourself.
11:06What?
11:07Let the trial begin.
11:08The first to be judged, Eleanor.
11:13Go ahead.
11:15Keep pretending.
11:16Once the light hits you,
11:17all your jealousy,
11:19your hatred,
11:20your hypocrisy,
11:20it'll all be laid bare.
11:30Elinor.
11:32Light unturnished.
11:34Pure.
11:35Impossible!
11:36She clearly...
11:37Orion,
11:38you don't know me at all.
11:40The second to be judged,
11:42Viola.
11:44I...
11:46I...
11:47I won't.
11:48I refuse.
11:49Viola,
11:50the light won't harm the innocent.
11:52What are you afraid of?
11:54My lord.
11:56I can't go in there.
11:59Why?
12:00You're innocent, aren't you?
12:01Because she's already fallen.
12:04What did you say?
12:05Viola's core was corrupted long ago.
12:16Fallen!
12:19And you, Orion.
12:22The moment you touched her,
12:25you were infected too.
12:30No!
12:32Ah!
12:34Our wings!
12:36How did they rot like that?
12:38A fallen!
12:39She's been hiding in the sanctuary all this time!
12:41Lord Orion
12:43bound himself to a fallen.
12:45Has he lost his mind?
12:47My lord!
12:49I'm not!
12:50I didn't!
12:51I grew up in the sanctuary.
12:54My wings have never shown a single stain.
12:57You're the first person
12:59I've ever formed a covenant with.
13:03My faith in the light has never wavered.
13:07How could I possibly be corrupted?
13:10The first.
13:12She's right.
13:13I checked her covenant record.
13:15It was spotless.
13:17How could an angel who just formed a covenant suddenly fall?
13:21You're not corrupted.
13:24I believe you.
13:27Viola could never have fallen.
13:29You're the one who's lying.
13:30A guardian of the firmament.
13:32Throwing away Lady Elaneth for a fallen.
13:35Pathetic.
13:37Shut your mouth.
13:39The light doesn't lie.
13:41The light doesn't lie, but people do.
13:43You've held the seat of First Angel for far too long.
13:46The Hall of Sacred Reeling.
13:47The Tribunal.
13:48The right to interpret the Codex.
13:50It's all in your hands.
13:51Faking a light reading.
13:52That's nothing for you.
13:59Orion.
14:00The result of a trial of Sacred Light cannot be altered by any power.
14:05This is the unbreakable law of the Celestial Sanctuary.
14:09Unbreakable law, High Priest.
14:11How long have you served here?
14:12Do you honestly believe the First Angel, sitting on that throne for 20 years, couldn't find a way around it?
14:20Rage is making him stupid.
14:23Good.
14:24Do you all see it now?
14:25This woman, Elanor, she trapped me with a covenant for five years.
14:30And the moment I broke it, she set out to destroy me.
14:34She's jealous of Viola, so she invented this lie about corruption.
14:41Viora is innocent.
14:43She did nothing wrong.
14:44The only guilty one here is Elanor.
14:48Abusing her power.
14:49Consumed by jealousy.
14:50She doesn't deserve the seat of First Angel.
14:59Lady Elanor.
15:00This is surveillance footage from the Lower Sanctum's covert posts.
15:04Three months' worth.
15:05Viola has been using Lower Realm inspections as cover.
15:08Every seven days, she slips across the demonic border.
15:10Meets with the same male demon.
15:12Their relationship goes far beyond official business.
15:16Orion.
15:18This is the woman you fell for.
15:20If she's innocent, then I don't deserve to be First Angel.
15:24My lord, please, don't fight the entire sanctuary for me.
15:31For you, I would fight the whole world.
15:36Orion.
15:38You claim I faked the light's verdict.
15:41Then answer me this.
15:43Did I also fake the dark purple spreading across her wings?
15:50That's...
15:50That's...
15:51That's from when you attacked her with Sacred Light yesterday!
15:55Sacred Light leaves dark purple corruption marks, Orion.
15:57You've lived in the Celestial Sanctuary for thirty years.
16:00You can't tell the difference between light and corruption anymore.
16:03You use some...
16:04Some method I don't know about.
16:06You know more about manipulating light than I do.
16:08I can't even imagine what you're capable of!
16:11So...
16:12Let me get this straight.
16:14Not only did I fake the light's verdict,
16:17I also faked the corruption marks on Viola's wings.
16:21I faked the corruption readings at the Hall of Sacred Healing, too.
16:24Yes, you can fake anything!
16:26You run the hall!
16:27You can alter the corruption data however you want!
16:30But corruption records are generated by the light itself.
16:35No one can change them, too.
16:37Okay, shh!
16:38Shh!
16:38Stay out of this.
16:41So what are you going to do about it?
16:44What?
16:45You say, I faked everything.
16:47So what's your move?
16:48File a complaint?
16:49Appeal?
16:51Or...
16:52Bring your legion against me.
16:56Elinor.
16:57Don't push me.
16:58And if I do.
17:02Lord Orion, the Third Legion is assembled and awaiting your orders.
17:08He's actually going to use the legion.
17:10This is insane.
17:11Is he trying to start a civil war?
17:13Elinor.
17:15I'll ask you one last time.
17:17Do you admit that Viola's corruption is your fabrication?
17:20No.
17:22Fine.
17:23Third Legion, move into position around the altar of sacred light.
17:27No one enters or leaves without my command.
17:29Understood.
17:32Lady Elinor.
17:34Wait.
17:35Orion.
17:36Do you know what you're doing?
17:38I'm protecting the innocent.
17:40No.
17:43You're digging your own grave.
17:45Orion.
17:46Stand down.
17:48There's still time.
17:51High Priest.
17:52Did she buy you off too?
17:54No one has bought me.
17:56I've simply lived long enough to see too many men like you.
17:59What's that supposed to mean?
18:02Angry men always believe they see the truth.
18:06But anger only blinds you faster.
18:10High Priest, I'm not here to debate you.
18:15If it's a fight you want, it's a fight you'll get.
18:30What is this?
18:30Lord Orion's going to war with the entire sanctuary over a fallen?
18:33Don't you see?
18:35This isn't about the fallen.
18:36It's about pride.
18:38Lady Elinor humiliated him in public.
18:40He wants payback.
18:42Whatever the reason, nobody wins in a civil war.
18:49My Lord.
18:53I'm so scared.
18:57Don't be.
18:58I've got you.
19:04What are you doing?
19:05What are you doing?
19:2020 years.
19:2247 trials of sacred light.
19:25All pure.
19:26Orion, you say I faked today's result.
19:29So what about the past 20 years?
19:31Did I fake all of those too?
19:36You say I tampered with the corruption records.
19:40So did I falsify every single record from the Hall of Sacred Healing for the past decade?
19:46You say I used my power to suppress Viola.
19:49So are the 3,700 angels the Hall has healed all lying for me too?
19:5320 years.
19:5447 trials.
19:55All pure.
19:55If she really could fake the light's verdict, then the entire judgment system of the sanctuary
19:58is a joke.
20:02But Lord Orion doesn't seem like he's lying either.
20:06You, you planned all this, didn't you?
20:09You knew this day would come, so you got all the evidence ready in advance.
20:13I didn't prepare anything.
20:15You're the one who handed me all the evidence.
20:18I did not!
20:21Then tell me, why did Viola's corruption happen?
20:24She, it's impossible.
20:26She can't have fallen.
20:28She's so kind, so gentle.
20:30How could she be a fallen?
20:32But her wings, those dark purple marks, the light's verdict, it all points to corruption.
20:41Maybe Viola's corruption is real, but it's not her fault, it's yours!
20:46You attacked her with sacred light.
20:49You damaged her core, and that's how the corruption got in.
20:53Oh, you're even dumber than I thought.
20:57Show him the report!
20:59Lord Orion, this is the record of Viola's core examinations from the past three months.
21:05Please, see for yourself.
21:17Orion, what does it say?
21:19It says Viola's core began corrupting three months ago.
21:23Three months ago, but that's...
21:25That's when Lord Orion's covenant with Lady Elinus was still intact.
21:29Viola approached Lord Orion while she was already corrupted.
21:32She infected him on purpose.
21:38Viola, is this true?
21:40Viola, say something!
21:42My lord, I didn't...
21:44I swear I didn't...
21:49Lady Elinurd, I know you hate me.
21:53I know I shouldn't have gotten close to Lord Orion, but I'm not corrupted.
21:58I'm really not.
21:59These marks!
22:00They only appeared after you attacked me with sacred light yesterday.
22:04Before that, my wings were clean.
22:07You can check.
22:08You can ask anyone who's ever seen me!
22:14She has a point.
22:16Those marks did only show up yesterday.
22:20But the records show corruption from three months ago.
22:23Records can be faked.
22:24But those marks on her wings...
22:26Those don't lie.
22:29Nice performance.
22:31Too bad you can fool him, but you can't fool me.
22:35I grew up in the sanctuary.
22:38Both my parents served in the hall of sacred healing.
22:41I've devoted my whole life to the light.
22:47How could I possibly fall?
22:50My lord, please.
22:52You have to believe me.
22:54I didn't do anything.
22:58She's right.
22:59She grew up here.
23:01I know her parents.
23:02How could she be a fallen?
23:04And that woman...
23:05She's too calm.
23:07Unrationally calm.
23:09What kind of betrayed woman is this composed?
23:13Unless...
23:14She planned all of this...
23:17From the very beginning.
23:21Eleanor!
23:23What did you do to Viola?
23:25I did nothing.
23:27Nothing?
23:28Then where did the marks on her wings come from?
23:31Where did the three-month-old corruption records came from?
23:33The marks on her wings are signs of corruption.
23:36The records are generated automatically by the light.
23:40I did nothing.
23:42I simply...
23:43Discovered the truth.
23:45Truth!
23:46Your so-called truth is a lie you made up to barn an innocent angel has fallen.
23:50And nail me to the post as a traitor!
23:54Or I...
23:56Why are you yelling?
23:57What are you so afraid of?
24:01You're afraid of the truth.
24:03You're afraid the person you chose to believe has been lying to you from the very start.
24:10Shut up!
24:12You can't face it, so you scream at me.
24:15You can't admit you were fooled, so you choose to believe her tears.
24:18You can't bear the consequences of breaking the covenant, so you pin it all on me.
24:22Elinette.
24:24I'm warning you.
24:26Stop talking!
24:28Orion.
24:29You're no longer a guardian of the ferment.
24:32You're just a pitiful man being eaten alive by anger and guilt.
24:35Elinette.
24:37Stand down.
24:38But...
24:39Stand down!
24:40You think you've won.
24:42I'm not competing with you.
24:44Not competing?
24:45Then why are you trying to destroy me?
24:47I didn't destroy you.
24:49You destroyed yourself.
24:51My lord.
24:52Please.
24:53Don't fight Lady Elinette.
24:55For me.
24:56I'll...
24:57I'll accept the judgment.
24:58Even if...
24:59Even if it's not fair.
25:01No.
25:02I won't let them hurt you.
25:04You've ever well seen it.
25:05Elinette abused her power.
25:06She faked the light's records.
25:08She slandered an innocent angel.
25:10If she can do this to Viola today, she can do it to any one of you tomorrow.
25:16The laws of the Celestial Sanctuary exist to protect every angel.
25:20Not to be a tool for one person.
25:22If we let Elinette trample on those laws today,
25:25then tomorrow there will be no justice left in the Sanctuary.
25:29Lord Orion is right!
25:31We can't let Elinette abuse her authority!
25:34Yes!
25:34The result of a trial of Sacred Light can't be decided by one person alone!
25:39Protect Lord Orion!
25:40Protect Viola!
25:42Anger is a plague.
25:44It spreads faster than corruption.
25:46Elinette, I'll give you one last chance.
25:50Drop the charges against Viola.
25:52Admit you faked the light's records.
25:54What? Or else?
25:57Or else what?
25:58You'll use your legion against the entire Sanctuary?
26:01If I have to.
26:02Orion, have you ever stopped to ask yourself one question?
26:08What?
26:09Why are you threatening me with your legion?
26:11If you truly believe Viola is innocent,
26:13if you truly believe you haven't fallen,
26:15then why not prove it yourself?
26:17What are you saying?
26:18You know the rules of the trial of Sacred Light.
26:21The Pure stand unharmed.
26:23The Corrupted burn in agony.
26:25I've already taken the trial,
26:26and you saw the result.
26:28Pure.
26:29Now it's your turn.
26:30You say Viola's innocent.
26:32You say you haven't fallen.
26:34Then step into the light.
26:36Let the light prove your innocence.
26:40Orion.
26:42Do you dare?
26:49No!
26:50He can't go in there.
26:52If he does, it's all over.
26:55She's baiting me.
26:57This is a trap.
26:58I can't fall for it.
27:00But if I back down now,
27:02everyone will think I'm afraid.
27:04What will my angels think?
27:06What will my legion think?
27:07You think I'm scared?
27:09I didn't say you were scared.
27:11I asked.
27:13Do you dare?
27:14Of course I dare!
27:18My Lord.
27:20Don't.
27:21Even if you step into the light,
27:23it proves nothing.
27:24Lady Eleonard faked my results.
27:25She can fake yours too.
27:27She's trying to destroy you.
27:29She's right!
27:30This is what you want,
27:31isn't it, Eleonard?
27:35Orion.
27:37If I wanted to destroy you,
27:39I wouldn't go to all this trouble.
27:40Have you forgotten?
27:41I gave you your position as guardian.
27:45What I can give,
27:47I can take away.
27:49I don't need to fake any records.
27:50One word from me,
27:52and you lose everything.
27:54Lady Eleonard has a point.
27:56If she wanted to destroy Lord Orion,
27:58she wouldn't need all this.
27:59Yeah.
27:59She could just strip his title
28:01and be done with it.
28:06Maybe,
28:07maybe you didn't want to strip my title outright
28:09because that would be too obvious.
28:10You wanted to disgrace me.
28:12You wanted everyone to know
28:13I was punished for betraying you.
28:15You wanted me to die a humiliating death.
28:17Orion,
28:18you're giving me far too much credit.
28:20I don't have that kind of time.
28:21Then why put me through this trial?
28:23If you just wanted to deal with Viola,
28:25you could have arrested her
28:26and been done with it.
28:28Why humiliate me in front of everyone?
28:30Orion,
28:31you say I faked everything.
28:33Fine.
28:33I won't use the light's verdict.
28:35I won't use the records from the hall.
28:37Let me show you the truth another way.
28:39A way you can see for yourself.
28:41What way?
28:41Summon your sacred light.
28:43What?
28:44Summon your light.
28:45Drop on the power within you.
28:46Call forth sacred light.
28:48If you can summon light that is pure,
28:50then I will believe you are innocent.
28:52And Viola too.
28:53I will drop all charges
28:55and let you both walk free.
28:58That's it.
29:01That's it.
29:03You think I can?
29:08I must have slipped out.
29:10One more time.
29:20Impossible.
29:21This can't be happening.
29:28He can't summon light.
29:29That means
29:30his corpse
29:31ours already been eaten away
29:33by corruption.
29:34He really is infected.
29:37You!
29:39What did you do to me?
