00:00:05Okay, where am I?
00:00:12Jesus Christ!
00:00:29Who sent you?
00:00:31Such beautiful eyes.
00:00:36This human isn't afraid of me.
00:00:39No one sent me.
00:00:41I was struck by lightning in my own lab.
00:00:47Also, I might be carrying pathogens from another world.
00:00:49Don't touch me unless you want to take that risk.
00:00:57Hey, did you even hear what I said?
00:00:59Put me down!
00:01:00I said I might be contagious.
00:01:02Aren't you afraid of dying?
00:01:03Interesting.
00:01:04Hey!
00:01:09Didn't you say you might be contagious?
00:01:11Then I guess I'll just lock you up.
00:01:14Are you always this rude?
00:01:20What is this?
00:01:25System synchronized.
00:01:26Your designated task is to recover the six prime shards of the realm within 365 days.
00:01:34Fail this mission, and you'll be stuck here forever.
00:01:37System?
00:01:38What the hell?
00:01:39New target unlocked.
00:01:41Kale.
00:01:42Alpha of the Wolf Clan.
00:01:44Affinity level 5.
00:01:45Reach 200 affinity to fully activate the fragment.
00:01:48Time remaining, 30 days.
00:01:51Kale?
00:01:5230 days?
00:01:55Fine.
00:01:56Let's start the route.
00:02:02Alright then.
00:02:04Let's see how hard you really are.
00:02:13Eat.
00:02:22Want a bite?
00:02:24Better than that thing you've got.
00:02:30How do I know you didn't poison it?
00:02:32You said it yourself.
00:02:33We're built differently.
00:02:35What's fine for you might not sit well with me.
00:02:37Okay.
00:02:38Then just watch me eat then.
00:02:51Human food tastes awful.
00:02:53Then don't.
00:03:10Take me with you.
00:03:11I heard them talking.
00:03:13There's a child in your camp burning up with a fever.
00:03:15I know how to save that child.
00:03:16I have medicine.
00:03:17We can't waste any more time or he'll die.
00:03:20Follow me.
00:03:26I won't hurt it.
00:03:46Got a death wish?
00:03:47Getting that close?
00:03:48A mother wolf will bite even me when she's protecting her young.
00:03:52I just want to save her pup.
00:03:54Your arm.
00:03:54Are you okay?
00:03:55We're not as fragile as humans.
00:03:57Just treat your patient.
00:03:59You've got 30 minutes.
00:04:07Corruption depth.
00:04:08Still in the superficial subternal layer.
00:04:10Hasn't reached the vascular network.
00:04:12Early stage.
00:04:13There's still a window.
00:04:15There's still a window.
00:04:19There's still a window.
00:04:31Great.
00:04:32His affinity for you is rising.
00:04:38Hey!
00:04:42You've got residual corruption in your left arm.
00:04:45Leave it long enough it'll affect your transmissions.
00:04:47Let me take a look.
00:04:48Not necessary.
00:04:49Fine.
00:04:50Then when it builds up and starts tearing you apart, don't expect me to care.
00:04:54Wait.
00:04:57Hold still.
00:04:58And that cut on your right arm.
00:05:00We need to treat that too.
00:05:05Looks like the Alpha is badly injured.
00:05:15What is it?
00:05:17Someone was there.
00:05:21Trouble's coming.
00:05:29They're coming.
00:05:32Stay here.
00:05:33Stay here.
00:05:37Stay there.
00:05:50No!
00:06:08Kai, help!
00:06:38Let me take a look.
00:06:40No.
00:06:41You can't wrap it yourself. I saw you.
00:06:46And at this depth, it needs stitches.
00:06:51Sit like this. It's easier.
00:06:56Sure. This works.
00:06:58You guys fight like beasts, but your wound care is a disaster.
00:07:02Old injuries just brute force heal, leaving corruption behind and healing all wrong.
00:07:06You talk too much.
00:07:08I'm distracting you. Helps with the pain.
00:07:11Don't need it.
00:07:12I'm stitching you up. Hold still. If I miss, I might hit your neck.
00:07:19No heavy movement for three days. You'll heal in seven.
00:07:23What?
00:07:31New girl, drink. What's a blood moon feast without blood wine?
00:07:36What?
00:07:40First time, huh?
00:07:42Figures.
00:07:45This one's lighter.
00:07:50Then what are you drinking?
00:07:52I drink yours.
00:08:05watch.
00:08:05watch your step.
00:08:45You know what you're doing?
00:08:47I do.
00:09:15Take it.
00:09:17This wasn't part of the deal.
00:09:19I know.
00:09:20Kale gave you a heart core fragment.
00:09:23Make him fall for you and activate it.
00:09:25Then you can go home.
00:09:29One of ours went missing in this region.
00:09:32We're here to search.
00:09:33Dragon clan has no authority inside wolf territory.
00:09:36Reports say an unidentified human appeared here, carrying core energy, an anomaly.
00:09:41Our leader orders her brought back for examination.
00:09:55So it's you.
00:10:00I'm Chloe.
00:10:01PhD in biology.
00:10:03You carry the scent of a core.
00:10:05How did you get it?
00:10:07The system gave it to me.
00:10:09I need the fragments from all six clans to get back home.
00:10:12She's in my camp.
00:10:14Not your concern.
00:10:15Oh.
00:10:16Wolves are sheltering humans now.
00:10:18That's our business.
00:10:20Your clan's dealing with corruption too.
00:10:22Take me to the dragon clan.
00:10:24I'll treat it.
00:10:25In exchange for a core fragment.
00:10:29New mission unlocked.
00:10:31Make Dracul fall for you and get his fragment as soon as possible.
00:10:37Follow me.
00:10:38Wait for me.
00:10:49It's incredible down here.
00:10:51Stay close.
00:10:52If something happens, that's on you.
00:11:03What's wrong?
00:11:04Too much for you, refined human?
00:11:06I've seen worse in my world.
00:11:08This is nothing.
00:11:09Neck.
00:11:10Superficial layers.
00:11:11It's reached the third subfernal layer, close to the vascular network.
00:11:15This one's the worst?
00:11:16He's been in high fever for four days.
00:11:18Four days?
00:11:19Anyone earlier?
00:11:20The earliest, eight days.
00:11:21Further inside.
00:11:23Take me.
00:11:31Die, human!
00:11:36Quick!
00:11:36What's happening to him?
00:11:38Hold him down.
00:11:39The corruption's in his bloodstream.
00:11:41That was likely a mutation response.
00:11:43My meds won't do much once it's systemic.
00:11:45I can only control secondary infection, reduce the fever, slow the spread.
00:11:49He has a chance, but it's low.
00:11:50The early cases have over a 70% success rate.
00:11:5470%?
00:11:55There's no such thing as 100% in medicine.
00:12:00If you fail, you'll suffer a hundred times what my people did.
00:12:04I won't fail.
00:12:06But I do have one condition.
00:12:09Go on.
00:12:10The core fragment.
00:12:15Human.
00:12:16You've got nerve.
00:12:19If you'd rather cling to a fragment than save your own people, then forget I said anything.
00:12:25Fine.
00:12:26I agree.
00:12:28Take your shirt off.
00:12:31Excuse me?
00:12:33I need to assess the corruption before I can treat you.
00:12:36Hold still.
00:12:51Maybe I could show you something more direct instead.
00:12:56I've finished the examination.
00:12:58Your condition is manageable.
00:13:01Or is it that, Chief, you're dissatisfied with the conditions of my diagnosis?
00:13:05Human.
00:13:06You set a high bar.
00:13:07But I accept your terms.
00:13:10The fragment.
00:13:11After I prove my value?
00:13:13Of course.
00:13:14Dragons honor contracts.
00:13:15But we also value equivalency.
00:13:18You promise to heal my people, and I promise you the fragment.
00:13:22But before that, you'll have to prove you're worthy of that trust.
00:13:27Trust needs a foundation, Chief.
00:13:29Mine is modern medical knowledge, and the ability to deliver on my promises.
00:13:33What's yours?
00:13:34Just instinct and intimidation?
00:13:41I've never misjudged anyone.
00:13:43Especially someone as unusual as you.
00:13:46Deal, Doctor.
00:13:47Fulfill your promise, and the fragment will be yours.
00:13:49But for now, show me whether your value is truly worthy of my fragment.
00:13:53Lead the way, Chief.
00:13:55Time is life.
00:13:56Your people can't afford to wait.
00:14:23He says your hands are the steadiest he's ever seen.
00:14:35You need something.
00:14:37You're impressive, human.
00:14:39Thanks.
00:14:40So when do I get the fragment?
00:14:41When everyone's cured, then how about one night for a fragment?
00:14:48Not worth it.
00:14:50One night for a fragment?
00:14:52That's not fair.
00:14:53To the fragment.
00:14:56You're negotiating the price of a fragment with me.
00:14:58I'm talking about fairness.
00:15:00Your fragment is meant to save your entire clan.
00:15:03An equal exchange is this.
00:15:05I finish treating everyone.
00:15:07When the last patient stabilizes, you hand me the fragment yourself.
00:15:10That's a true one for one.
00:15:12What do you think, Chief?
00:15:14You're the strangest human I've ever met.
00:15:17Thanks.
00:15:18I'll take that as a compliment.
00:15:20Drakon Affinity increased by 17.
00:15:23Current, 33 out of 200.
00:15:27Alright, I've written out the follow-up treatment plan.
00:15:30Stick to it.
00:15:31Should mostly clear in three weeks.
00:15:39You did it.
00:15:41I told you I wouldn't fail.
00:15:49Dragon core fragment obtained.
00:15:51Inactive.
00:15:52Activation counts retort return progress.
00:15:59What are you doing here?
00:16:01I made a deal.
00:16:02I treated them and got the fragment.
00:16:05Did he give you trouble?
00:16:06No.
00:16:07He proposed something unreasonable.
00:16:09I turned it down and we renegotiated something fair.
00:16:14Are you mad?
00:16:15No.
00:16:16You are.
00:16:17Next time, don't go alone.
00:16:20Take me with you.
00:16:22Okay.
00:16:27Another traveler and already holding two fragments.
00:16:32External bound user Marcus detected.
00:16:35Warning.
00:16:35Forced fragment extraction mode activated.
00:16:38Immediate treat advised.
00:16:39Give me the fragments.
00:16:40And I'll let you leave this world painlessly.
00:16:43Marcus.
00:16:44How long have you been here?
00:16:45Three months.
00:16:47When you first got here.
00:16:49It was lonely, wasn't it?
00:16:58Next time we meet, have the fragments ready.
00:17:08I'll be the judge of that.
00:17:10It's an electro-trignetic hit, not blunt force.
00:17:12Might look fine on the surface.
00:17:13No telling underneath.
00:17:17That human.
00:17:18You know him.
00:17:19Another traveler.
00:17:21He got here three months before me.
00:17:23Corrupted by the cores.
00:17:24He's trying to collect all six fragments for himself.
00:17:29His weapons are modern tech.
00:17:30Your physical attacks won't get through that shield.
00:17:33Does he know where the six clans are?
00:17:34He likely has our sentry positions.
00:17:37Mapped.
00:17:40Then we need to talk about what comes next.
00:17:47Marcus knows where we are.
00:17:49And your defenses won't stop his weapons.
00:17:52Next, he'll go straight for the clan territories.
00:17:55Then we fight.
00:17:56Problem is, you can't break his shield.
00:17:59Until I figure out how, avoid direct confrontation.
00:18:02I'm not working with him.
00:18:06Great.
00:18:08Apocalypse incoming.
00:18:09I'm not asking you to cooperate.
00:18:12I'm telling you, someone's threatening every clan.
00:18:15Including your own people.
00:18:17I don't need you united.
00:18:18I need you not getting picked off one by one.
00:18:21I'll go to the lion clan.
00:18:23Get the third fragment fast.
00:18:25Every fragment I hold, gives me more leverage against Marcus.
00:18:29Meanwhile, you protect your own.
00:18:32New target detected.
00:18:33Kane.
00:18:33Lion clan leader.
00:18:35Prairie civadel.
00:18:36I'll get ready.
00:18:37And you too?
00:18:39No fighting.
00:18:40Time until Marcus launches full assault.
00:18:42Unknown.
00:18:43Note, your speed determines more than just your own fate.
00:18:47I learned everything about King Kane through the Heart Force system.
00:18:51I need to get his fragment as soon as possible.
00:18:55Something's wrong.
00:18:58Hello, Doctor.
00:19:05Archer's on the rooftops too.
00:19:07About 50 in total.
00:19:09She's sharp.
00:19:10Just like Drakon said.
00:19:17How did you know I'd come?
00:19:18Drakon told me ahead of time.
00:19:20Said you could solve my problem.
00:19:23What else did he say?
00:19:26That you're not easy to deal with.
00:19:29Please.
00:19:30He's the difficult one.
00:19:32I figured.
00:19:37All right.
00:19:38What do you need?
00:19:40There's a public hearing in three days.
00:19:42Under Article 73 of the Ancient Law, if a leader is deemed incapable of sovereign rule, the throne must be
00:19:47passed on.
00:19:48If I lose, it goes to my uncle Sorin.
00:19:52And how is sovereign rule defined?
00:19:56That's the problem.
00:19:58Elder Sorin and the others chose the interpretation that hurts me most.
00:20:01No external aid allowed.
00:20:03I met Drakon over the corruption issue, so they're calling it outside interference.
00:20:08I'm not good with law or debate.
00:20:10It's fine.
00:20:11You've got me.
00:20:12I trust you.
00:20:14The hearing's in three days.
00:20:15Can you read this?
00:20:19I read logic, not words.
00:20:26The cut on your neck?
00:20:28From the night I arrived.
00:20:30Does it still hurt?
00:20:33What?
00:20:37He's attentive.
00:20:41It's fine.
00:20:42It doesn't hurt anymore.
00:20:45New target unlocked.
00:20:47Cain, King of the Lion Clan.
00:20:48Current level, 15 out of 200.
00:21:03It's me.
00:21:04Climbing into a lady's window at night, Chief?
00:21:07The elders have eyes in the rear halls.
00:21:09The front entrance isn't safe.
00:21:11So you went with the window.
00:21:16Cain, that's not exactly a leader's skill set.
00:21:19Learned it before I was 16.
00:21:21Royal Archive.
00:21:22The original Article 73 from a thousand years ago.
00:21:28This is older.
00:21:29Compare them.
00:21:30Compare them.
00:21:40Three more seconds and I start charging.
00:21:43I've got eyes in the back of my head.
00:21:45Lion Clan anthropology won't teach you that in a hundred years.
00:21:50Keep reading.
00:21:51Cain, Article 73.
00:21:54Read it in the original.
00:21:55Veil or rune?
00:21:56Again.
00:21:57Veil or rune?
00:21:58That's not sovereignty.
00:22:00Veil denimates rule.
00:22:02Orin's root.
00:22:03Look here.
00:22:03In the ancient version, it means continuous, unbroken.
00:22:07Article 73 does not mean sovereignty.
00:22:09It means continuous rule.
00:22:11The leader must not cease governing while in office.
00:22:15Soren isn't twisting the law.
00:22:17He's exploiting a translation error.
00:22:19This isn't law.
00:22:20It's linguistics.
00:22:27Sorry.
00:22:28Got carried away.
00:22:30You always get like this when you find a breakthrough?
00:22:32Sometimes someone's there.
00:22:34Who's there?
00:22:38Fine.
00:22:39An assistant.
00:22:40A woman.
00:22:46Use this tomorrow.
00:22:48Saren's going to lose.
00:22:49Why help me?
00:22:50At first, I needed your fragment.
00:22:54And now?
00:22:55Now?
00:22:57I don't like watching a 28-year-old man get cornered by a bunch of old men.
00:23:07Doctor.
00:23:09Three nights ago, when Saren first confronted me, I sat on that throne all night.
00:23:13Couldn't find a way out.
00:23:14When we arrived today, I met you without armor or blade.
00:23:17It wasn't because I didn't take this seriously.
00:23:19If I was going to lose, I didn't want you to see me in armor.
00:23:22Now I might win.
00:23:24So tomorrow, I'll wear it.
00:23:31Lion Clan lore.
00:23:32Before a foreign envoy may enter court, they must undergo a trial of will.
00:23:36Three knockdowns counts as defeat.
00:23:38No weapons allowed.
00:23:39The wolf ability is kicking in.
00:23:41Pre-activation.
00:23:43Got it.
00:23:44I won't hold back.
00:23:46Thanks.
00:23:47Neither will I.
00:23:55Every punch.
00:23:57His left shoulder solves for 0.3 seconds.
00:24:07Your left shoulder.
00:24:08Every time you throw a punch, you pause for 0.2 seconds.
00:24:11Old injury in your left dial type.
00:24:13The tendon never heals right.
00:24:20The envoy's qualified to enter the court.
00:24:26By ancient lion custom, the king salutes a warrior.
00:24:30Your hand.
00:24:34The leader accepting human assistance violates Article 73.
00:24:39I think you need to explain something first.
00:24:49Article 73.
00:24:51In its original form, Vale Orun, Elder Sorin renders it as sovereign rule.
00:24:56But in the Blood Moon Covenant a thousand years ago, Orun denotes continuity, something unbroken,
00:25:01uninterrupted, not sovereignty.
00:25:05Scholar, what does Orun mean in the Blood Moon Covenant?
00:25:09Continuous.
00:25:09It means continuous, not dependent.
00:25:13The real meaning of Article 73.
00:25:16During their tenure, a leader must not interrupt their rule.
00:25:18As long as Cain hasn't left the capital or abandoned his duty, accepting outside aid is not a via fellation.
00:25:23You twisted the law.
00:25:25Under Article 91.
00:25:27Treason against the Crown.
00:25:29You're just an outsider.
00:25:31A human.
00:25:33Sorin.
00:25:34Under Article 91.
00:25:35Detain him.
00:25:36Dispatch 300 gold guard to the northern border.
00:25:38Bring my uncle Orun back.
00:25:39My lord, you've been deceived by that human.
00:25:41You will regret this.
00:25:43The Lion Clan Corps, from this day forward, is entrusted to Dr. Morgan.
00:25:49Entrusted.
00:25:50Why give it to me now?
00:25:53Because I trust you'll return it.
00:25:55Lion Clan Corps Fragment Acquired.
00:25:58Inactive.
00:25:59Note.
00:25:59Only activated fragments count toward return progress.
00:26:03Cain.
00:26:04Wait until I collect all six.
00:26:06I won't let you regret giving it to me today.
00:26:09Affinity increased by seven.
00:26:12Current.
00:26:1265 out of 200.
00:26:18He trusts I'll return it.
00:26:21Activation of all fragments required to unlock return portal.
00:26:33Severely injured to the center.
00:26:34If you can move, help out.
00:26:41Kale.
00:26:46The totem was raised 500 years ago.
00:26:49The main tent.
00:26:51My father's generation built it.
00:26:53The two on watch.
00:26:55The oldest was 17.
00:26:57You weren't here.
00:27:01Kale.
00:27:06Are you hurt?
00:27:08No.
00:27:11Good.
00:27:12From now on, you won't be alone anymore.
00:27:30Drink.
00:27:31You've been going since afternoon.
00:27:34How many died?
00:27:37Three.
00:27:38The two boys on watch.
00:27:40And an elder.
00:27:41Hit in the second strike while carrying children out.
00:27:43Does the Dragon Clan have geotherm minerals with antibacterial properties?
00:27:48I don't know.
00:27:49I need alternatives.
00:27:50We're almost out of antibiotics.
00:27:52Some volcanic minerals work similarly.
00:27:54If I can extract them.
00:27:55Dracon might have them.
00:27:57He'd know.
00:28:12He always said he'd carve more for the kids.
00:28:15Your hand.
00:28:35I'm going to the Dragon Clan.
00:28:37We're low on medicine.
00:28:38I need alternatives.
00:28:40You're going to him.
00:28:41I'm going for mineral remedies.
00:28:43Not for him.
00:28:45Same thing.
00:28:46I'm going for the wounded here.
00:28:48And I'll come back.
00:28:51Then go.
00:28:52And come back fast.
00:29:02You said you'd come back.
00:29:04I will.
00:29:09I will.
00:29:30How did you know I was here?
00:29:31I can always sense your core.
00:29:33The moment you stepped onto the volcanic path, I knew.
00:29:36I'm here for alternative medicine.
00:29:38The wolves are running out.
00:29:39Minerals might have similar properties.
00:29:42Follow me.
00:29:49Chaclophyte sulfur oil.
00:29:51Dense oxidation layer.
00:29:52High enough concentration.
00:29:54How much of this do you have?
00:29:55It's found across the entire volcanic range.
00:29:57We have plenty.
00:29:59That's enough.
00:30:00If I extract the active compound, it can replace my antibiotics for external use.
00:30:04I'll need a workspace, hot water, and someone who understands these minerals.
00:30:10The first thing you do when you come to me is look for medicine for someone else.
00:30:18That's why I'm here.
00:30:19I know.
00:30:20Come with me.
00:30:22Drakkon affinity increased by six.
00:30:27You were at the wolf camp last night.
00:30:29Yeah.
00:30:30And now you're here.
00:30:32I am.
00:30:33Every time you come, you carry traces of somewhere else.
00:30:37Drakkon.
00:30:38I'm here because I need something from here.
00:30:40I came to save lives.
00:30:42Nothing else.
00:30:42I know you came to save people.
00:30:44I just want to know if any part of you came to see me.
00:30:50Yes.
00:30:54Go on.
00:30:55I'm here.
00:30:57Current level, 97 out of 200.
00:31:02I'll take the medicine in the morning.
00:31:04I'll reach the wolves the day after.
00:31:05Stay tonight.
00:31:06What do you mean by that?
00:31:11No rush to leave.
00:31:13The medicine needs to get there fast.
00:31:15Come.
00:31:15I want to show you something.
00:31:17Come.
00:31:22What's this?
00:31:24Dragon crystal.
00:31:25Extremely rare.
00:31:26Usually reserved for the leader.
00:31:29You always light up when you see a new mineral.
00:31:31You've been watching me.
00:31:32When you look at minerals, I'm looking at you.
00:31:36So why bring me here?
00:31:38It's for you.
00:31:40But why?
00:31:41Last time, I said one night for a fragment.
00:31:43You said it wasn't worth it.
00:31:45I remember.
00:31:46I was wrong.
00:31:47I don't want a night.
00:31:48I don't want a trade.
00:31:49I want you to choose to stay.
00:31:51I haven't decided if I'll stay.
00:31:53But I know.
00:31:55When I'm here, I don't want to leave.
00:32:05I have to go.
00:32:07The medicine needs to get there.
00:32:13I'll keep the crystal safe.
00:32:29It's working.
00:32:31Change it twice a week and they'll be stable.
00:32:35You stayed with the dragons for two days?
00:32:37Extraction takes time.
00:32:38And the mountain path isn't safe at night.
00:32:41Fine.
00:32:41I wrote down the process.
00:32:43You can do it yourselves next time.
00:32:45While you were there, did he...
00:32:47Did he what?
00:32:49Nothing.
00:32:50When the medicine was ready last night,
00:32:52the first thing I thought was,
00:32:54I need to tell you.
00:32:58I see.
00:33:03I'm leaving for the lions tomorrow.
00:33:05Kane and I need to go over a plan.
00:33:07Watch that old man soaring.
00:33:09He's not done yet.
00:33:11You know about that?
00:33:13Of course I do.
00:33:16Send word when the camp's rebuilt.
00:33:19Notice.
00:33:20Kale's affinity nearing activation threshold.
00:33:22Next.
00:33:23Lion clan.
00:33:23Advance Kane route.
00:33:24Establish alliance defense.
00:33:42Marcus did all this?
00:33:44He forcibly drained all their core energy.
00:33:47The corrupted lands.
00:33:49It's expanding.
00:33:51Every marked point was once a living clan settlement.
00:33:55Now all gone silent.
00:33:56If he gathers enough fragments, he'll come for all six clans.
00:34:00We have less time than we expected.
00:34:06I need to call a meeting with the three clans.
00:34:09We discuss the alliance face to Tis.
00:34:12Kale and Dracor.
00:34:13Do you think they'll come?
00:34:15They'll come.
00:34:16That doesn't mean they'll agree.
00:34:19Where do you plan to hold it?
00:34:22Neutral ground.
00:34:23Not in any clan's territory.
00:34:26I'll arrange it.
00:34:27Two days.
00:34:28All right.
00:34:30Stay here for the next few days.
00:34:33Dracon said the same thing.
00:34:34I don't care what he said.
00:34:36I'm the one asking you now.
00:34:38All right.
00:34:39I'll stay.
00:34:47Kane affinity increased by eight.
00:34:49Current level, 73 out of 200.
00:34:53You look like you haven't slept in a long time.
00:34:56Is it that obvious?
00:34:58You've got dark circles.
00:34:59You didn't last time.
00:35:01I've been on the move.
00:35:03A room's ready.
00:35:04Get some real sleep tonight.
00:35:06I'll take care of this.
00:35:07Go rest.
00:35:10Kane.
00:35:13Good night.
00:35:16Kane affinity increased by five.
00:35:18Current level, 78 out of 200.
00:35:35The corrupted lands are expanding at three times the normal rate.
00:35:39Full-scale assault expected within 60 days.
00:35:43A six-clan alliance.
00:35:45Shared intel.
00:35:47A unified defense.
00:35:49It's our only shot.
00:35:52An alliance needs terms.
00:35:55Clear roles, leadership, accountability.
00:35:58Without that, it won't survive a war.
00:36:01That's why we're here.
00:36:03I'm open to it.
00:36:04But the terms must be fair.
00:36:06No single clan in charge.
00:36:08My land, my people.
00:36:09We don't answer to any alliance.
00:36:12It's not command.
00:36:13It's coordination.
00:36:14Same difference.
00:36:15Once we're in, I don't get the final say over my people.
00:36:17I won't accept that.
00:36:19Dragons don't sign treaties.
00:36:21It is ancestral law.
00:36:23I don't have the authority to change it.
00:36:26Drakon?
00:36:27I can share intel, scout from the air, support in emergencies.
00:36:31But I won't sign.
00:36:35If it's informal, we'll join.
00:36:36But a formal pact needs the Council's approval.
00:36:40Fine.
00:36:43It's not that I don't want it.
00:36:44I can't sign it.
00:36:45The Council won't approve, and forcing it would fraction us.
00:36:48That just gives Marcus another opening.
00:36:51But what we agree on here, I'll honor it.
00:36:53No treaty.
00:36:54But my word stands.
00:36:56I know your word holds.
00:36:58Tradition is tradition.
00:36:59But I told you, when it matters, I'll be there.
00:37:02That doesn't need a treaty.
00:37:04I just can't give you what you want on paper.
00:37:08I understand.
00:37:09We don't do alliances.
00:37:11We fight our own battles.
00:37:13I know.
00:37:14But you called.
00:37:16I came.
00:37:17They refused the alliance.
00:37:20But they're all here.
00:37:22All right.
00:37:22That's it for today.
00:37:24I'll remember what you said.
00:37:26That's enough.
00:37:28Triggered.
00:37:29Kale Affinity reached activation threshold.
00:37:32Wolf Core Fragment can now be activated.
00:37:45You're not leaving?
00:37:46You're still here.
00:37:51Kale, if he comes within 60 days, can we really hold?
00:37:56For a while.
00:37:57How long is a while?
00:37:59Long enough for you to get the rest of the fragments.
00:38:10Move fast and we'll hold.
00:38:12I will.
00:38:13I'll be fast.
00:38:18He said, move faster and we'll hold.
00:38:25Next destination.
00:38:27Serpent Clan, Swamp Kingdom.
00:38:34In theory, it should block toxins.
00:38:39The swamp shifts.
00:38:41That's what the stone said.
00:38:45Dr. Chloe Morgan.
00:38:48Three months.
00:38:50You're more interesting than I expected.
00:38:52Wolf, dragon, lion.
00:38:55The time you stayed with them.
00:38:58Longer than I expected.
00:39:00Especially the dragon.
00:39:01You've been watching me.
00:39:05You're fascinated.
00:39:06He's been sensing me for three months.
00:39:08He's been waiting.
00:39:11You know all this, so what?
00:39:13So I know you'd come.
00:39:16You're here to trade Marcus Intel for my fragments.
00:39:19Yes.
00:39:20I already know most of what you have.
00:39:21Then is the remaining 20 or 30% worth a fragment?
00:39:27It is.
00:39:28But I have a condition.
00:39:30Before you tell me,
00:39:31you stay here three days.
00:39:35Why?
00:39:37Sensing is one thing.
00:39:38I want to see you for myself.
00:39:41You stayed three to seven days elsewhere.
00:39:43Here, minimum three.
00:39:46That's the condition.
00:39:47Three days.
00:39:48Then I get the fragment.
00:39:49If your intel holds,
00:39:51yes.
00:39:52Follow me.
00:39:53Don't step on the path to my left.
00:39:54It's a sink swamp.
00:39:55Honestly, I thought you'd fall in your first time.
00:39:57Pity.
00:40:16What's in it?
00:40:18Swamp mint.
00:40:19The pressure's lower here.
00:40:20You'll get a headache your first night.
00:40:21This helps.
00:40:24What are you reading?
00:40:25Records.
00:40:27Records of what?
00:40:28You.
00:40:30Started three months ago.
00:40:32Every time your core energy shifts,
00:40:34I add a new entry.
00:40:35Three months?
00:40:37Hundreds of entries?
00:40:39About me?
00:40:43Sephin, why keep track of this?
00:40:46Because ever since you arrived in Eftaland,
00:40:49your presence has been resonating with the swamp.
00:40:51Not anywhere else.
00:40:53Here.
00:40:54With me.
00:40:56You're free here for the next three days.
00:40:58But don't walk the swamp alone at night.
00:41:00There are places I won't be able to find you if you get lost.
00:41:03Finish that, then have another.
00:41:04The swamp nights are long.
00:41:13She.
00:41:14Every line starts with she.
00:41:17I need to figure out a way to get the Fragment fast.
00:41:28There he is.
00:41:33What is this?
00:41:36Records of corruption spread across the six clans.
00:41:39Updated every three months.
00:41:41For two hundred years.
00:41:42The Serpent Clan keeps these?
00:41:43I do.
00:41:44Since I became leader.
00:41:46And the red markings on that map,
00:41:48those are where you've been these past three months.
00:41:50You logged my movements in your clan archives?
00:41:53I did.
00:41:55He filed me into his clan records.
00:41:57Like it's normal.
00:41:58That's what makes it dangerous.
00:42:00Zephyr, I need to ask you something.
00:42:02Go ahead.
00:42:03In these three months, besides sensing me,
00:42:05did you send people to track me?
00:42:07I did.
00:42:08Twice.
00:42:09Both times after you entered dragon territory.
00:42:12Why the dragon clan?
00:42:13Because their leader's presence is stronger than mine.
00:42:16Both times yours changed after you went in.
00:42:19I felt it.
00:42:20I wanted to know what he did to you.
00:42:22You sensed the change,
00:42:23so you sent people to see what Dracon did to me.
00:42:25I wanted to know if he hurt you.
00:42:29He didn't.
00:42:30I know.
00:42:32Both times my people said you walked out on your own.
00:42:35If I hadn't walked out on my own,
00:42:37what would he have done?
00:42:38I'm not sure I want to know.
00:42:41Zephyr affinity increased by six.
00:42:43Current level, 34 out of 200.
00:42:50Your swamp, do you like it?
00:42:52Like isn't a word we use.
00:42:55We say, belong.
00:42:58This swamp belongs to me,
00:43:00and I belong to it.
00:43:02What does that feel like?
00:43:04Your core resonates with it.
00:43:06You don't feel it?
00:43:08It's a resonance,
00:43:09not resistance.
00:43:11You're only noticing now.
00:43:13I thought it was the dragon fragment.
00:43:17Dragon fragments repel.
00:43:19This accepts.
00:43:21Not the same.
00:43:23Of all the places you've been in Athaland,
00:43:25this is the only one where your presence doesn't want to leave.
00:43:29You're sensing me again.
00:43:31Always.
00:43:32Since the moment you came in.
00:43:34No need to rush back tonight.
00:43:36The swamp lights are at their best right now.
00:43:39You shouldn't miss it.
00:43:44We're done verifying intel.
00:43:46By our terms,
00:43:46you give me the fragment today.
00:43:49I've changed my mind.
00:43:51What did you say?
00:43:52I've changed my mind.
00:43:54No trade.
00:43:55Breaking a contract carries consequences.
00:43:57You said that yourself.
00:44:01It does.
00:44:02I know.
00:44:06I'll trade for something else.
00:44:09What?
00:44:10Stay three more days.
00:44:12Zephyr,
00:44:13you're breaking your own tract law.
00:44:15I know.
00:44:17And you're doing it anyway.
00:44:19Yes.
00:44:19He's willing to break his own laws,
00:44:21pay the price,
00:44:22just to keep me here three more days.
00:44:25Why?
00:44:26Three months ago,
00:44:27when you first appeared,
00:44:29your presence stirred the swamp.
00:44:30I'd been here twelve years.
00:44:32Not once did an outsider resonate with this place.
00:44:34Then you came.
00:44:36The fragment was always yours.
00:44:38I'll take the consequence.
00:44:39Stay or go,
00:44:40that's your choice.
00:44:41I want you here.
00:44:47It's like he opened a door
00:44:48and keep himself from leaving.
00:44:53Serpent core fragment acquired.
00:44:55Inactive.
00:44:56Ability.
00:44:57Toxin immunity.
00:44:58Temporary.
00:44:58Current affinity.
00:44:59Thirty-four out of two hundred.
00:45:13You broke a taboo.
00:45:15You know the cost.
00:45:16Some will question my right to lead.
00:45:18Others will use it against me.
00:45:21You've thought it through.
00:45:22I have.
00:45:24You didn't come to tell me you've decided to stay.
00:45:27No.
00:45:28I came to tell you.
00:45:30I can't accept you breaking your own laws
00:45:32just to keep me here.
00:45:34Then what are you going to do?
00:45:36I'm going to make it fair.
00:45:38That's not fair.
00:45:40If I stay,
00:45:40we each carry our share.
00:45:42I'll help you hold your ground in your clan.
00:45:46You don't have to.
00:45:47I want to.
00:45:49Then stay three days.
00:46:06What are you reading tonight?
00:46:08Thinking about that taboo you broke.
00:46:11And how it ends.
00:46:12They'll use it to force me to step down.
00:46:15You knew that already.
00:46:17I did.
00:46:19Zephyr, why did you do it?
00:46:21Maybe I just like you.
00:46:23Is that enough?
00:46:39I did.
00:46:47If you can't handle the fallout, tell me.
00:46:52I will.
00:46:53Next destination, Eagle Clan.
00:46:55Cloud Peak Highlight.
00:47:08I'm Chloe.
00:47:10I'm here to fix your signal system.
00:47:13The Silent Type.
00:47:26You transmit through the wind.
00:47:29The whistle codes bounce between peaks,
00:47:31but two of them are down.
00:47:33Corruption's eaten through the copper pipes.
00:47:35I can fix it.
00:47:36Replace them with iron.
00:47:37Recalibrate the angles.
00:47:39Two days, minimum.
00:47:43Definitely corrosion, not mechanical failure.
00:47:46Swap the pipes, it'll work.
00:47:50Does he ever talk?
00:48:12Thanks.
00:48:29The next day, we finally gathered the materials and started the repairs.
00:48:44It's beautiful. He heard me.
00:49:21Thank you. It's been 30 years.
00:49:24He can talk?
00:49:28Take it.
00:49:29Eagle Core Fragment Acquired. Inactive.
00:49:35On the way here, you said it was beautiful.
00:49:40I think you too.
00:49:57That sound. It means be safe.
00:50:05Five now. Kales is ready. His affinity is high enough.
00:50:15Kale, I need to ask you something.
00:50:17Go ahead.
00:50:18Do you trust me?
00:50:30Only a kiss with complete trust can activate it. You really trust me.
00:50:36Wolf Fragment fully activated. Regeneration ability permanently unlocked.
00:50:46External system detected. Marcus has implanted a transfer device.
00:50:52When the portal is activated, Marcus will siphon all of your core energy.
00:50:59If the transfer fails, you will be trapped here forever.
00:51:03He's waiting for me to finish, waiting for me to activate it myself and seal it shut.
00:51:08No wonder he never tried to take them. The faster I collect, the better for him.
00:51:11Damn it.
00:51:12Then I have to destroy his device before that moment.
00:51:18Your fragment is cracked.
00:51:22When I treated your people last time, I found the corruption's source frequency matches your core.
00:51:28Normally it doesn't relaloped once cured, but theirs keeps coming back.
00:51:32The source never left. It's in you.
00:51:36Thirty years.
00:51:38I can fix it.
00:51:40How?
00:51:42I need your full trust.
00:51:51You don't understand what this thing has done to me.
00:51:55Then stop carrying it alone.
00:51:56Dragon Fragment fully activated.
00:51:59Fracture sealed.
00:52:00Fire resistance fully unlocked.
00:52:10Thirty years.
00:52:12Carrying it all alone.
00:52:14Blaming himself for his people.
00:52:19You should have told me sooner.
00:52:21I hate that you went through that alone.
00:52:23I'm leaving. Take good care of yourself.
00:52:36You got the warning.
00:52:37When did you plant the scanner?
00:52:38Your first time in the dragon territory.
00:52:41Your system has a gap.
00:52:43Thirty seconds after each activation, it resets.
00:52:46That window is open.
00:52:47You've got two activated fragments.
00:52:50Four left.
00:52:52At your pace, two months.
00:52:55Tops.
00:52:55I'm offering a deal.
00:52:57Give me the two activated ones, and I'll tell you another way home.
00:53:00No portal.
00:53:01You could leave tonight.
00:53:03And the cost?
00:53:04The connection between Aetherland and Earth shuts down permanently.
00:53:08No one crosses again.
00:53:10Me included.
00:53:15If it's real, why don't you take it?
00:53:17Because.
00:53:18Because I can't.
00:53:19The corruption's too deep.
00:53:21Once it crosses a threshold, I die mid-transfer.
00:53:25He's trading information for my fragments.
00:53:28But I don't know if that path is real.
00:53:33And even if it is, I'm not leaving.
00:53:37What?
00:53:38Not because your deal isn't good enough, because I don't want to.
00:53:40You've fallen for them.
00:53:42Then go collect them.
00:53:44We'll meet at the portal in the end.
00:53:46And I'll win.
00:53:50Chloe.
00:53:52The first month I didn't use weapons.
00:53:54I tried.
00:53:58The first month I didn't use weapons.
00:54:01I tried.
00:54:04What exactly did he go through?
00:54:14Faster than the system said.
00:54:17It's seeping out from the roots.
00:54:20The source is inside the tree.
00:54:24You've come.
00:54:27You know me?
00:54:30I knew you would come.
00:54:32From the day you arrived in Astaland.
00:54:34What do you mean?
00:54:35The Deer Clan has an ancient text, passed down for a thousand years.
00:54:40It records prophecies about this world.
00:54:42Come with me.
00:54:43You need to see it.
00:55:00You'd better explain this.
00:55:02A thousand years ago, during the War of the Six Clans, the cores were forcibly split, and the curse began.
00:55:08A guardian of the Deer Clan wrote this book, recording its origin, and the conditions to end it.
00:55:14A traveler from another world, no Aetherland blood, yet able to resonate with the cores.
00:55:19Only someone like that can activate all six fragments, without sacrificing their life, and break the curse.
00:55:26You weren't chosen by chance, Chloe.
00:55:28The name in this book was calculated by my predecessors over a lifetime, through core resonance patterns.
00:55:33The portal's core node overlapping with this tree, is that coincidence or design?
00:55:38Design.
00:55:39Who designed it?
00:55:44Those from a thousand years ago.
00:55:46They anchored the portal nodes in the roots of the sacred tree.
00:55:50So long as the tree lives, the node stays stable.
00:55:54But if the tree is corrupted...
00:55:56The node fails, the portal can't activate, and I can't go home.
00:56:00Yes.
00:56:03Dear Clan Fragment, Resonation Unlocked.
00:56:06Eldrian Affinity, 30 out of 200.
00:56:12We need to stop the source first.
00:56:14But it's not here.
00:56:16Every time Marcus extracts core energy from a minor clan, the corruption expands.
00:56:21That energy seeps underground and travels here through the resonance nodes.
00:56:25They waited a thousand years for me to fix this.
00:56:32Can I really carry that alone?
00:56:35The traveler from another world will face one final choice.
00:56:39That choice cannot be foretold, because it belongs only to me.
00:56:43Why is there no ending?
00:56:45That line was never finished.
00:56:48He didn't dare.
00:56:50He said if that choice were foresown, it would become a chain.
00:56:53So he left it blank.
00:56:55For you to write.
00:57:00At this rate, how long before the corruption reaches the node?
00:57:05At this rate, 30 days.
00:57:08Marcus will launch within 60 days.
00:57:10If I take him out first and cut off the source.
00:57:13Can the tree hold?
00:57:14There's a way to temporarily contain it.
00:57:17But it requires your core energy.
00:57:19And you have to be here.
00:57:21Seal it first.
00:57:23Then deal with Marcus.
00:57:25Then come back.
00:57:26All right.
00:57:27We begin tonight.
00:57:33I need two days here to stabilize the tree.
00:57:35Then we go.
00:57:36Can he be trusted?
00:57:39He knows more than I do.
00:57:41But he hasn't acted, just waited for me.
00:57:44I think he's afraid.
00:57:46Afraid of what?
00:57:47That if he interferes, the choice won't be mine anymore.
00:57:51I'll wait two days.
00:57:53I'll come for you on the third.
00:58:17Your core resonance is stronger than I expected.
00:58:22Because I'm not alone.
00:58:34You knew I was here from day one.
00:58:36Why didn't you come find me?
00:58:38The book says the traveler can't be guided, only awaited.
00:58:41If anyone interferes, that choice becomes theirs, not yours.
00:58:45So I did nothing.
00:58:47I waited for you to come here on your own.
00:58:49A thousand years.
00:58:51Didn't that hurt?
00:58:53It did.
00:58:56But thinking about the burden you'd have to carry hurt more.
00:59:03He's hurting.
00:59:04For someone he's never even met.
00:59:26Done?
00:59:28Temporarily.
00:59:29We have 30 days to deal with Marcus, or it won't hold.
00:59:40Eldrin affinity increased by 10.
00:59:43Current 40 out of 200.
01:00:01Emergency alert.
01:00:03Marcus has launched a full offensive, semi-levious attacks on the Wolfman, Dragon Pass, and Lion Captain
01:00:18He was waiting for the two days I'd be gone.
01:00:21Head to the old stone platform.
01:00:24Get everyone there.
01:00:32How bad is it?
01:00:34The east side of the camp took a hit.
01:00:35We've got casualties.
01:00:37Two on night watch.
01:00:38Two scout posts on the mountain path were blown.
01:00:40The outer defenses of the capital were probed.
01:00:42Range testing.
01:00:43The real attack hasn't come yet.
01:00:46He's forcing everyone to focus on defense, so he has room to go after the fragments.
01:00:51His device needs a fixed position to charge.
01:00:53He hit three locations, which means it's set at the center of those points.
01:00:58Right at the edge of the corrupted lands, where core energy is densest.
01:01:03How do you know that?
01:01:04The Serpent Clan's surveillance never stopped.
01:01:12You've known where he is all along.
01:01:16I was waiting for you to ask.
01:01:20From here.
01:01:21Half a day.
01:01:22Think it through before we go.
01:01:24He's got a shield.
01:01:24We won't break it head on.
01:01:27I'll go.
01:01:28My core frequency can disrupt his shield, but I need you to cover me.
01:01:31Get me inside his range.
01:01:33I'm going with you.
01:01:35I'll cover you from the air.
01:01:36I'll send 300 of my Golden Guard.
01:01:39Serpent, Venom, Smoke can jam his detection systems.
01:01:41I'll prep it before we move.
01:01:49All of you.
01:01:50Six Clan coordination triggered for the first time.
01:01:56You didn't ask a single question.
01:01:58You just said you'd come.
01:01:59What's there to ask?
01:02:04What if something goes wrong?
01:02:06It won't.
01:02:22Zypher stayed up all night setting this up.
01:02:33Ambush!
01:02:43Finally, I was getting impatient.
01:02:46The corruption's getting worse.
01:02:48I don't even know if he still cares about going back anymore.
01:03:19There's nothing more.
01:03:29Our venom shuts down the nervous system with three seconds.
01:03:34It's been a while since I used this myself.
01:03:44I can't let him get distracted saving me again.
01:03:50Noticed?
01:03:50They can't fight at full strength.
01:03:52They've got disruptors on them.
01:03:54Everyone's abilities are suppressed.
01:03:57Only I can find the frequency.
01:04:18You figured it out, but you forgot.
01:04:20I know this system too.
01:04:32Don't worry about me.
01:04:33Go unlock it.
01:04:43Why is he here?
01:04:44His clan wasn't attacked and he still came.
01:04:52Shut it down, Marcus.
01:04:54You think you've won today?
01:04:55Your people are all down.
01:04:57My people were just bait to bring you here.
01:05:0330 minutes ago I activated a secondary device at the underground core of the corrupted lands.
01:05:08It doesn't extract energy.
01:05:10It releases it.
01:05:11Pushing out a thousand years of stored core residue.
01:05:16Warning.
01:05:17Abnormal underground corruption energy release detected.
01:05:20Source.
01:05:20Core layer of the corrupted lands.
01:05:22Depth aprox 300 meters.
01:05:23Release direction.
01:05:25Omni-directional expansion.
01:05:27Estimated spread speed will increase tenfold within 30 minutes.
01:05:30Ten times.
01:05:31The World Tree can only hold out three days at that rate.
01:05:34I don't need to beat you.
01:05:36I just need to buy time.
01:05:50Three days, Chloe.
01:05:52Think carefully about what you do next.
01:05:58Kane!
01:06:05Why didn't you dodge?
01:06:07You were still there.
01:06:09I could have dodged.
01:06:10There wasn't time for you two.
01:06:14Does it hurt?
01:06:16A little.
01:06:26Secondary subterranean device activated.
01:06:29Corruption spread rate increasing.
01:06:32Estimated sacred tree node will be affected in three days.
01:06:37Tell me what to do.
01:06:43We're going to Eldrin.
01:06:45Three days.
01:06:46The last line in that book was blank.
01:06:48But now I need him to tell me if there's any other way.
01:06:59He had more than enough time to dodge.
01:07:02Kane knew you couldn't make it.
01:07:04His reaction speed was more than enough.
01:07:06He chose to take the hit.
01:07:07I think that earns him the right to share you with me.
01:07:09He chose that.
01:07:10The most rational person.
01:07:12Making the least rational decision.
01:07:19I'll go in alone.
01:07:21Wait here.
01:07:21I-
01:07:22Kale.
01:07:23I need him to tell me something.
01:07:25It's better if I ask alone.
01:07:36Marcus planted a device underground.
01:07:38The corruption spreading ten times faster.
01:07:41The sacred tree will be hit in three days.
01:07:43And the portal will be destroyed.
01:07:45Is there any way to stop it?
01:07:47There is a way.
01:07:48We can temporarily seal the underground corruption.
01:07:50Stop it from seeping upward.
01:07:52But all six fragments must be present to form a complete resonation loop.
01:07:56Six.
01:07:57Yours isn't activated yet.
01:07:59Possession is enough.
01:08:01It doesn't need to be activated.
01:08:03But all original holders must be present.
01:08:06And willing.
01:08:08There's something else I didn't tell you.
01:08:11Say it.
01:08:15This blank space.
01:08:16It's not just because my predecessor didn't read a spittle didn't dare predict your choice.
01:08:21Because when he reached this point he saw two endings.
01:08:24One.
01:08:25If the Traveler leaves, the curse breaks.
01:08:27But all Clan Heeders lose their core power and half their lifestamp.
01:08:31The other.
01:08:31If the Traveler stays, the curse still breaks.
01:08:34And no one is harmed.
01:08:36Why didn't he write it down?
01:08:38Because both outcomes require a true choice.
01:08:40Not one made after being told.
01:08:43But one made without knowing.
01:08:45If it were written, the choice would be tainted.
01:08:47It wouldn't count.
01:08:49You told me just now, so...
01:08:51I told you because we're out of time.
01:08:53You needed to know.
01:08:55But the choice is still yours alone.
01:08:59Whatever you choose, I'll be here.
01:09:03Two endings.
01:09:05And he still told me.
01:09:08Because he wanted me to have the chance to make a real choice.
01:09:19I need all of you.
01:09:21Come here.
01:09:22Put your hands on the roots.
01:09:24Once.
01:09:37I'm sorry.
01:09:47In the comments.
01:09:50In the comments.
01:09:51Same words.
01:09:52Take the end.
01:09:52You know what?
01:09:53You've got a real choice.
01:09:54No doubt.
01:09:56It's stopped.
01:09:58They're all here.
01:10:02Temporary seal complete.
01:10:04Sacred tree now stabilized.
01:10:06Underground corruption suppressed.
01:10:09Remain time window.
01:10:11Ten days.
01:10:12Where is it?
01:10:14Found it.
01:10:18I'm fine.
01:10:21Don't make me mad.
01:10:28You haven't looked at me all day.
01:10:30I'm treating your wound.
01:10:31Not just now.
01:10:33Since it ended.
01:10:35You've been avoiding looking at me.
01:10:38Is it because of what happened today?
01:10:41You could have dodged.
01:10:43I know.
01:10:45Then why?
01:10:46I told you.
01:10:48Because you were there.
01:10:50You were there, so I moved.
01:10:52I don't need a reason.
01:10:54Tell me if it hurts.
01:10:55It doesn't.
01:10:56Not when you're here.
01:11:00Don't leave tonight.
01:11:02What do you mean?
01:11:03Electrical burns can flare up later.
01:11:05It's risky at night.
01:11:06If something happens, you'll be here to handle it.
01:11:09Please.
01:11:09That is such a lame excuse.
01:11:28Why do you look so wrong?
01:11:31You're a king.
01:11:31I don't think so.
01:11:34I don't have a care.
01:11:35I don't iΕic.
01:11:52You're a king.
01:12:11Don't worry.
01:12:12The sacred tree felt the resonance last night. It's slowly recovering.
01:12:18Eldian, you've been here guarding the sacred tree this whole time.
01:12:22Yes.
01:12:24For how long?
01:12:25Since I became the leader. Twelve years.
01:12:29Alone?
01:12:31Alone.
01:12:32He waited twelve years. Alone, guarding a dying sacred tree holding onto a thousand year prophecy, waiting for someone who
01:12:39might never come. He must have been so lonely.
01:12:41Before I came, did you ever think that person might never show up?
01:12:45I did. Many times. But the book has a name written in it. So every time I thought they won't
01:12:52come, I opened it again and looked at that name. And then you came.
01:12:57I'm here.
01:12:58I've waited a long time. Now that you're here, I choose to leave in you.
01:13:04The device is still running. It has to be shut down through direct contact. It's about three hundred meters below
01:13:11the core of the corrupted lands. The current seal will hold for ten days at most.
01:13:22The core resonance can temporarily block the corruption particles. I have all six fragments. I can go in.
01:13:28No!
01:13:30Kale?
01:13:31You're not going in alone. Dragons resist corruption. I'll go with you.
01:13:40We need someone topside to hold Marcus off. Keep him from attacking while you're inside.
01:13:47Kale and I will handle the surface. Our venom smoke messes with its detection systems. The Deer Clan's root sense
01:13:53can track the device underground. I'll guide you from the surface.
01:13:56I don't know if I'll stay or leave in the end, but I do know... I don't want any of
01:14:02you getting hurt.
01:14:04Got it. Let's get ready.
01:14:14He's still up there. He never left.
01:14:19Orion Affinity increased by eight. Current, 61 out of 200.
01:14:37How long have you been up there? Since we went into the chamber? Orion, the Eagle Clane hasn't been dragged
01:14:46into this. This isn't your war.
01:14:50You were there.
01:15:03Follow me.
01:15:12You're going into the corrupted lands? Yes. It's dangerous. I know. I'll go with you. You said the Eagles don't
01:15:22get involved with the five clans. This isn't about the five clans. It's about you. He's here. Because of me.
01:15:31Fine. Then come with me. I'll make sure you don't get involved.
01:15:35I'll make sure you don't get corrupted.
01:15:37I'll make sure you don't get corrupted.
01:15:46What's on your mind?
01:15:55I'll give you something unforgettable.
01:15:58OK.
01:16:02OK.
01:16:11I don't know.
01:16:32Let's go.
01:16:33Now? It's not even dawn yet.
01:16:36I'll take you back. Then I'll talk to them.
01:16:40Say what?
01:16:42That the Eagle Clan is joining the fight.
01:16:44You said the Eagle Clan wouldn't.
01:16:46I did. But I changed my mind.
01:16:55He changed his principles. Because of me.
01:16:59Orion Affinity increased by 10.
01:17:01Current, 108 out of 200.
01:17:05Activation threshold reached.
01:17:10The Eagle Clan is in.
01:17:12We've got the air.
01:17:15Good.
01:17:21You were with him last night.
01:17:23But I'm not leaving you.
01:17:27All six fragments acquired.
01:17:30All activated.
01:17:33We're going to win.
01:17:35But I want all of us to make it through.
01:17:37Safe.
01:17:39Move out.
01:17:59Look who's here.
01:18:02Turn it off.
01:18:04Not a chance.
01:18:18Nine o'clock.
01:18:20Flank incoming.
01:18:23Come on.
01:18:29I know exactly what kind of energy spike happens when all six fragments activate at once.
01:18:34That spike is enough to sever the entire core network of Asterland.
01:18:37Not just the portal.
01:18:38Everything.
01:18:39All six clan leaders.
01:18:40All abilities.
01:18:41Permanently disabled.
01:18:48The corruption here is interfering.
01:18:50It makes healing harder.
01:18:56We can't break in.
01:18:58The shield is still up.
01:18:59His device is siphoning the conduit output.
01:19:03Redirecting the peak into the core network instead of the portal.
01:19:10Distract him.
01:19:11I only need two minutes.
01:19:14I only need two minutes.
01:19:38You're smarter than me.
01:19:40Marcus.
01:19:41How far has the corruption progressed?
01:19:44I can slow it.
01:19:46Help you hold on longer.
01:19:47No.
01:19:48In my first month here, I met Melissa.
01:19:50She taught me how to walk in the swamps.
01:19:52How to tell poison from medicine.
01:19:54How to light fires at the edge of the corrupted lands.
01:19:56Later, my device failed.
01:19:58And I used it.
01:20:00Melissa died in that accident.
01:20:02I tried.
01:20:11Portal activation conditions met.
01:20:14Corrupted lands will begin natural purification.
01:20:17The portal will close in 30 seconds after activation and cannot be reopened.
01:20:22We all know the two paths Eldrin told you and he told us as well.
01:20:26They have the right to know.
01:20:30No one asked me to stay.
01:20:32No one chose for me.
01:20:42If I stay, will you still be here?
01:20:45I'm with you.
01:20:47Me too.
01:20:48I'm here.
01:20:50So am I.
01:20:51And I.
01:20:52I'll stay with you.
01:21:03The millennial curse of Aetheryont has been lifted.
01:21:07Purification of the corrupted lands has begun.
01:21:10The portal has been coming in the clock.
01:21:26The grass is coming back.
01:21:29It'll take years before it fully recovers.
01:21:32We've got time.
01:21:34As long as you're here, we have time.
01:21:36On behalf of all six clans, thank you.
01:21:39It's okay.
01:21:40This is my home now too.
01:21:42Still keeping track?
01:21:44Until the day I die.
01:21:49What the ancestors left unfinished, I finish now.
01:21:53Do you regret it?
01:21:54I don't know about the future.
01:21:57But right now, I'm glad I stayed.
01:22:02I'm Dr. Chloe Morgan, evolutionary biology PhD, 26.
01:22:06I got struck by lightning in a lab on Earth, and ended up in another world.
01:22:11I was only supposed to collect data.
01:22:14But I never went home.
01:22:16I chose to stay.
01:22:19From this moment on, Aetherland is free of its curse.
01:22:23And from this moment on, I have six homes.
01:22:26I was trying to write something about life and a job.
01:22:27Yeah.
01:22:27I guess.
01:22:27I have a duh.
01:22:27I see.
01:22:27I have a duhgie.
01:22:28I want to take that while I really want to go.
01:22:28I know.
01:22:28I'm sorry.
