00:00:25Today, Avalon ends this.
00:00:29That dragon dies!
00:00:56Master, are you hurt?
00:01:00Where is Aldrich?
00:01:09Need a hand, Master?
00:01:13Are you going to let it kill me?
00:01:16Not a chance.
00:01:20Let's go!
00:01:48Master, aren't you going to praise me?
00:01:52There's your praise.
00:01:54Now pack your things.
00:01:56Leave the Isle, go to the mainland.
00:01:59Why?
00:01:59Because I was late, and a bit too pleased with my magical gift?
00:02:04Because you're ready.
00:02:07Over ten years ago, I brought you back to the Isle of Avalon.
00:02:10Your grandfather's death has been haunting you ever since.
00:02:13Now that you've become the best mage the world has ever seen,
00:02:16you should go to find the truth.
00:02:22Master.
00:02:25Also, this is the marriage your grandfather arranged for you.
00:02:28When you go back, do not forget to fulfill the betrothal.
00:02:33What?
00:02:33I have a fiancee.
00:02:39The Blood Storm...
00:02:40The Lady Ellora Aldwyn
00:02:48...State your business.
00:02:51I'm looking for Duke Aldwyn.
00:02:53Yeah you and every grade in the Kingdom.
00:02:55Scram.
00:03:02You're Aldrich
00:03:03That's me
00:03:04I've been waiting for you
00:03:07Follow me
00:03:17Someone's cursed this place
00:03:26After I break this engagement
00:03:27I'll warn them
00:03:29Consider it my compensation
00:03:39My lady, the boy is here
00:03:42No manners
00:03:45You want one?
00:03:49I came to see Duke Eldwyn
00:03:51Where is he?
00:03:52His lordship isn't available to just anyone
00:03:55Whatever you have to say
00:03:57You can say it to me
00:03:58Fine
00:03:58Works for me
00:04:04So
00:04:06You've come about the betrothal
00:04:08Yep
00:04:10House Eldwyn
00:04:11Has stood for over a hundred years
00:04:13In wealth and status
00:04:15We are the greatest family in this town
00:04:19Like the chair you're sitting on
00:04:20It took two million gold
00:04:22To build
00:04:23Reserved only for the head of House Aldwyn
00:04:26Alone
00:04:27Do you understand what I'm telling you?
00:04:29Your house is wealthy
00:04:31For generations our marriages have been between equals
00:04:34Different stations, different births
00:04:38It only ends badly
00:04:40To make it clear
00:04:41House Aldwyn cannot marry its daughter
00:04:43To a penniless beggar
00:04:45I'm here to break the engagement
00:04:48But I didn't expect House Aldwyn to look down on people like this
00:04:52Fine
00:04:53Saves me the trouble of explaining
00:04:55Here is two million in gold
00:04:59Wow
00:04:59Take the money
00:05:00Leave my daughter
00:05:02Go as far away as you can
00:05:08Two million
00:05:08Your house truly is wealthy
00:05:11What?
00:05:11You want more?
00:05:12I'll write you a note for three million
00:05:15Ten million
00:05:16Boy, don't be ungrateful
00:05:19Greed will be your ruin
00:05:20You might not live to spend it
00:05:22I don't want any of this money
00:05:29And the marriage?
00:05:30I'm the one calling it off
00:05:33Duke Aldwyn won't let this go
00:05:35Maybe I'll have to talk to him later in person
00:05:37My lady
00:05:38Should I find someone to
00:05:40Deal with you?
00:05:43No deaths
00:05:45Just teach him a lesson
00:05:47Make sure he leaves the town
00:05:50Yes, my lady
00:06:26Grandfather
00:06:29About the marriage
00:06:30I meant to go to House Aldwyn and cancel it
00:06:34But the Aldwins were so arrogant
00:06:37I taught them a small lesson
00:06:40But no matter how this ends
00:06:43I'll repay Duke Aldwyn's kindness
00:06:44I know you two were close
00:06:46Stuart Marcus says make it clean
00:06:48Kill the boy
00:06:49Ten thousand gold each
00:07:03Don't blame us, kid
00:07:04You crossed the wrong people
00:07:09Who?
00:07:22What the?
00:07:32Talk
00:07:33Who sent you?
00:07:35No one
00:07:35No one
00:07:37You want to go back in the water?
00:07:42It was Stuart Marcus who sent us
00:07:44So afraid of me marrying into the family
00:07:47Get out of here
00:07:51Young man
00:07:52Mercy is a virtue
00:07:53You did the right thing letting them go
00:07:55Good sir
00:07:56Thank you for saving me
00:07:58You could see my spell
00:08:00Young man, you're more than meets the eye
00:08:03And children who honor their elders are rare these days
00:08:10Good sir
00:08:10You have a shadow curse on you
00:08:13If you don't treat it soon
00:08:15It will destroy you from within
00:08:18You know healing magic?
00:08:21You know healing magic?
00:08:23A little
00:08:24Can you cure me?
00:08:26Sure
00:08:27Please sit
00:08:28I'm going to use Avalon needles to cleanse your curse
00:08:49The shadow assassin has come for me
00:08:51I can't protect you
00:08:53Go
00:08:53Good sir
00:08:54Focus on your healing
00:08:56Leave this one to me
00:08:57Boy
00:08:58This is between me and Silas
00:09:00Walk away
00:09:01I'll let you live
00:09:03Shut up
00:09:04I've been wanting to see what the infamous shadow magic has become
00:09:08You're asking for death
00:09:19My wrens
00:09:20They're broken
00:09:21Where are you?
00:09:22A mage from Avalon
00:09:23Killed a shadow assassin with one strike
00:09:27Avalon magic lives up to its reputation
00:09:29Good sir
00:09:31You're cured
00:09:34I've been wounded for nearly ten years
00:09:37I've seen every healer in the realm
00:09:39All of them failed
00:09:40Then you show up
00:09:42One treatment
00:09:44And the pain is gone
00:09:46This
00:09:47Is the legendary Avalon needle art?
00:09:50Yes
00:09:50I learned this from my master Theron
00:09:54Your master invented these root stones
00:09:56Let's anyone in the kingdom talk to each other
00:09:58No matter how far apart
00:10:00Take it
00:10:00I've made a link between your rune stone and mine
00:10:04Next time you're in trouble
00:10:05Just say my name into the stone
00:10:07I'll appear
00:10:08I've always wanted one
00:10:11Master Theron never allowed
00:10:13Thanks sir
00:10:15I'll see you around
00:10:20You drove Aldric away
00:10:22Both of you
00:10:25Father
00:10:26What are you talking about?
00:10:28What's wrong?
00:10:29Ask your wife
00:10:30Ask her
00:10:32What she's done
00:10:33What happened?
00:10:35How could our daughter marry some penniless island boy?
00:10:38Father
00:10:39Isolette isn't wrong
00:10:41How could a penniless boy match our house's standing?
00:10:44You fool!
00:10:46Penniless
00:10:47Has any family
00:10:49Not known poverty?
00:10:52Has House Aldun never known poverty?
00:10:56You drove
00:10:58Aldric away
00:10:59You'll regret this
00:11:01Find him
00:11:04Find him now
00:11:06If you don't bring Aldric back
00:11:08You can forget about being heir
00:11:18Aldric
00:11:18Do I know you?
00:11:19It's Tessa
00:11:20You disappeared for 12 years
00:11:22And that's all you have to say
00:11:23Do I know you?
00:11:2412 years and you still hug just as hard
00:11:26You deserved it
00:11:27Where have you been?
00:11:28We thought you were dead
00:11:28Remote island
00:11:29Studying with my master
00:11:31Studying what?
00:11:32How to be a hermit?
00:11:33Something like that
00:11:34Oh and Duncan
00:11:36He's the steward at a tavern now
00:11:38He's gonna lose his mind when he sees you
00:11:39But first
00:11:41You need new clothes
00:11:42And a haircut
00:11:45As steward
00:11:46Zero tolerance
00:11:47Zero mistakes
00:11:49Get it fixed
00:11:50Now
00:11:53Duncan!
00:11:59No way
00:12:03You son of a...
00:12:08You grew
00:12:10You actually grew
00:12:12And you got
00:12:13Presentable
00:12:15What happened to the scrawny kid who cried when he scraped his knee?
00:12:18He grew up
00:12:22Barely
00:12:23Where the hell have you been?
00:12:26Remote island
00:12:27Studying with my master
00:12:28Studying what?
00:12:30Duncan
00:12:31Aldric just came out of the Isles
00:12:33We need to take care of him in town
00:12:36Don't worry Aldric
00:12:37As long as I have food on my plate
00:12:40You'll have some too
00:12:43We'll be brothers for life
00:12:44When I make it
00:12:46I'll never let you go hungry
00:12:51Thanks Duncan
00:12:52Don't mention it
00:13:01Tessa!
00:13:02Lily!
00:13:03What are you doing here?
00:13:04I came here to drink with my friend from the academy
00:13:06All elites
00:13:07Upper class of the town
00:13:09Oh what a coincidence
00:13:11I forgot you just got into the town academy
00:13:13I should introduce you to them
00:13:15This is Lady Alara Aldwyn of House Aldwyn
00:13:27Lady Alara is so beautiful
00:13:31Our Alara is the most beautiful girl in town
00:13:34Everyone knows that
00:13:35Don't call me Lady Alara
00:13:37I'm one year ahead
00:13:38Call me sis
00:13:39Or just Alara
00:13:40And if anyone gives you trouble at the academy
00:13:43You tell me
00:13:44Thank you sis
00:13:48And this is Sir Godfrey
00:13:50Hair to the Merchant Guild
00:13:51And this is Sir Percival
00:13:53Hello
00:13:55And this
00:13:57I've got no titles
00:13:59Professional island dweller
00:14:00So
00:14:02You're just a commoner
00:14:04Since Tessa is Lily's friend
00:14:06Why don't we all drink together?
00:14:09Duncan will have your finest room
00:14:13Fine with me
00:14:14Alara
00:14:15Fine
00:14:16Come Tessa
00:14:17I'll tell you about the academy
00:14:20Go
00:14:20Have fun
00:14:22I'll be here with Duncan
00:14:24I'm fine
00:14:25You're coming too
00:14:28Him
00:14:28Nobles don't share air with commoners
00:14:30Especially not one from whatever flea-bent island he calls home
00:14:36Tessa is from my academy
00:14:39Sir Godfrey's letting you come as a favour
00:14:42Then count me out
00:14:43If my friend isn't good enough for your table neither am I
00:14:47Enough
00:14:48Either we all go or nobody goes
00:14:50We're here to have fun
00:14:51Not to measure status
00:14:53My unknown betrothed
00:14:55Has a spine
00:14:56Good to know
00:14:59Fine fine
00:15:00More people more fun
00:15:09A toast
00:15:15New friends
00:15:17Let's take out runestones and make links with each other
00:15:21Hey commoner
00:15:22You first
00:15:27I don't know how to make a link
00:15:31You
00:15:33Don't know how to use a runestone
00:15:35Never needed one
00:15:37He just got to town
00:15:38Leave him alone
00:15:39It's fine
00:15:40First time for everything
00:15:42Take out your stone
00:15:43I'll teach you
00:15:45Bold of you to assume he has one
00:15:51What is that a pebble
00:15:54So small and plain
00:15:56Did they make this specially for peasants
00:15:57I like it
00:15:58It was a gift
00:15:59Here's the deal
00:16:02You play the drums for us
00:16:04Sing one of those yahoo tunes from your little island
00:16:07I'll buy you the best rude stone gold can buy
00:16:09Deal
00:16:10Play play
00:16:12Stop it
00:16:18Don't think you can take tainer just because she's nice to you
00:16:20Hillbilly
00:16:22You playing or not
00:16:23Give me back my stone
00:16:26This junk
00:16:27I could buy ten of these and not feel it
00:16:36You couldn't afford to replace it
00:16:38Friend
00:16:39Watch your mouth
00:16:41You're not my friend
00:16:42You ungrateful brat
00:16:45Sir Godfrey treats you with respect
00:16:47And you will see blood today
00:16:52You dare curse me
00:16:56Lively in here
00:17:05Pretty girl
00:17:07What do you want?
00:17:08Can't you see this is a human's party?
00:17:10Come with me
00:17:11You'll serve my lord
00:17:13Big bags of gold
00:17:15Who the hell are you?
00:17:18You're asking who I am?
00:17:20You heard me
00:17:21I'm the heir of House Percival
00:17:23Now get lost while you still can
00:17:25Look at Sir Percival
00:17:27Now that's a real man
00:17:29Standing up to rude, violent orcs
00:17:33Not like some people
00:17:35Cowards
00:17:36Are you going to get lost or not?
00:17:46I hate it when people point fingers at me
00:17:55You ask who I am
00:17:57Who am I telling me to get lost?
00:17:59Blood, blood
00:18:00That peasant was right about the blood
00:18:02Still asking who I am
00:18:04I won't ask
00:18:07I won't ask
00:18:08I won't ask
00:18:09Sir Godfrey
00:18:10Help me
00:18:12Friend
00:18:13You've barged into my room and hurt my people
00:18:15That's not right
00:18:16And who the hell are you?
00:18:17I am Sir Godfrey
00:18:19I am Sir Godfrey
00:18:20My father is Lord Godfrey
00:18:21Head of the Merchant Guild
00:18:22He's friends with some of the best mages in the kingdom
00:18:25Even from Avalon
00:18:27You don't want to start a war between two races
00:18:30I believe
00:18:31So why don't you show some respect
00:18:33And let us have fun
00:18:34The Merchant Guild
00:18:36Lord Godfrey
00:18:38Best mages in the kingdom
00:18:41Avalon
00:18:42Yes
00:18:44Barely
00:18:45I'll give you that much
00:18:47Thank you
00:18:48But I'm not finished
00:18:50Your friend
00:18:51I can let him go
00:18:55But this girl
00:18:57She comes with me
00:18:58My lord doesn't take no for answer
00:19:05No
00:19:06She's not going either
00:19:10Are you sure?
00:19:13I don't know where you're from
00:19:14But in this room tonight
00:19:16You're not taking anyone
00:19:17Which young lord is so important that
00:19:26I can't even take someone away
00:19:32Baron Rathburn
00:19:34I didn't
00:19:36These the ones?
00:19:37They're the ones who stopped me
00:19:39So you're the Merchant Guild's young lord
00:19:43Baron Rathburn
00:19:44If I'd known it was you
00:19:45If you'd known it was me
00:19:47What?
00:19:47You would have kissed my boots
00:19:51Who is he?
00:19:53Baron Rathburn
00:19:54He runs the underground world
00:19:56Those orcs are his mercenaries
00:19:58He hires them for the dirty work
00:20:01So what?
00:20:02Sir Godfrey has the whole Merchant Guild
00:20:05Shut up
00:20:08Smart boy
00:20:10The girl
00:20:11She comes with me
00:20:14Not a word boy
00:20:15Not one
00:20:18No
00:20:19You're not taking her
00:20:22Then I'll take you instead
00:20:24Baron Rathburn
00:20:25She's
00:20:25You speak again
00:20:26I cut out your tongue
00:20:33Take both women
00:20:36Don't come closer
00:20:37Stay back
00:20:42Today
00:20:44None of you are taking anyone
00:20:49Who said that?
00:20:55Here's your chance
00:20:56Everyone in your crew kneels
00:20:58Apologizes to Tessa
00:21:02Then this whole thing is over
00:21:12You have no idea
00:21:14Who you're talking to
00:21:15No
00:21:16But I know that if you don't kneel and apologize
00:21:21That leg is mine
00:21:22You're insane
00:21:23Sir Godfrey couldn't handle this
00:21:25And you think you can?
00:21:26You're going to get us all killed
00:21:28He's right
00:21:28Don't drag us down with you
00:21:30Baron Rathburn
00:21:32We don't know him
00:21:33He's nothing to us
00:21:34Aldric
00:21:35This isn't your fight
00:21:36I've got it
00:21:37Please take care of Tessa for me Lady Alara
00:21:39You still don't know who you're talking to
00:21:45I don't know
00:21:46And I don't care
00:21:47But that leg
00:21:49It's mine
00:21:50You're dead
00:21:51You're dead
00:22:04You're dead
00:22:11No wonder you're so cocky
00:22:14You're a fighter.
00:22:16Aldrich, careful.
00:22:18Rathmuth is not a quitter.
00:22:20Here's your chance.
00:22:21Get on your knees, say you're sorry.
00:22:23Maybe, maybe I'll let you walk out.
00:22:25That's what I should be saying to you.
00:22:27You heard him.
00:22:28Get him!
00:22:33Stop!
00:22:40I want to know who's causing trouble in my tavern.
00:22:46Who's that?
00:22:47Lady Raven.
00:22:48She runs this place.
00:22:50Baron Rathbarn.
00:22:52What brings you here?
00:22:54Raven.
00:22:55Long time.
00:22:56Saw a girl I liked in your place.
00:22:59Can't sleep without her.
00:23:00What do you want me to do, huh?
00:23:02That girl doesn't work for me.
00:23:04Don't make this difficult.
00:23:06Then you take her place tonight.
00:23:08How about that?
00:23:11And if I say no?
00:23:12Then give me your tavern.
00:23:14The shares.
00:23:16Let me run it.
00:23:17You want my little business?
00:23:18Fine.
00:23:19No problem.
00:23:20Really?
00:23:22But I'm not the only owner.
00:23:24Let me talk to Count Valerius.
00:23:26If he agrees, it's yours.
00:23:29Count Valerius.
00:23:33Count Valerius.
00:23:38Go ahead, lady.
00:23:39In this town, no one.
00:23:42Shut up!
00:23:47Raven.
00:23:48No need to bother the old man over something this small, right?
00:23:52Forget it.
00:23:52Matter's settled.
00:23:54Oh, thank the gods.
00:23:55She helped us.
00:23:56Then go.
00:23:57Slowly.
00:23:59I won't see you out.
00:24:02Let's go.
00:24:05I didn't say you could leave.
00:24:13What did you say?
00:24:15I said, I didn't say you could leave.
00:24:18Here's your chance.
00:24:19Everyone in your crew gets on their knees, apologizes to Tessa, or you lose a leg.
00:24:25Your choice.
00:24:26Raven.
00:24:27You see, I tried to play nice.
00:24:29This isn't on me.
00:24:30This young friend just came to town.
00:24:33Doesn't know how things work.
00:24:35An islander.
00:24:36Aldric.
00:24:37Let it go.
00:24:37For me.
00:24:38Do me this one favor.
00:24:40Why should I do you any favors?
00:24:42What are you doing?
00:24:43They have more orcs outside.
00:24:44Even Lady Raven couldn't stop them all.
00:24:46She got us out.
00:24:47Take Tessa and go.
00:24:48Duncan.
00:24:49You told me once.
00:24:51No matter what, you'd never let anyone hurt Tessa.
00:24:54What happened to that?
00:24:55It's not that simple.
00:24:56This is his territory.
00:24:57He knows every corner, every exit.
00:24:59We're in his backyard now.
00:25:00Sometimes you have to know when to walk away.
00:25:02I don't walk away.
00:25:03And they're nothing.
00:25:05Now you understand.
00:25:07I could crush you like an ant.
00:25:09Apologize.
00:25:10Crawl through my legs, maybe.
00:25:12Maybe I'll forgive you.
00:25:13I thought he was different.
00:25:21This is my apology.
00:25:27You hit me.
00:25:31You hit me.
00:25:42You.
00:25:42My head!
00:25:45What are you waiting for?
00:25:47Kill him!
00:25:51Anyone touches him, they go through me.
00:25:54Duncan!
00:25:55He's my brother.
00:25:56I'm not leaving him.
00:26:01Come on, then.
00:26:03Still the same Duncan.
00:26:06Take Tessa.
00:26:07Go.
00:26:08I'll hold them.
00:26:08No need.
00:26:09I'm not done.
00:26:13I gave you a chance.
00:26:15You didn't take it.
00:26:18You gambling den bosses.
00:26:21Why can't you ever use your heads?
00:26:25Get him!

01:02:23But the caster will notice.
01:02:25And when he does, he'll try something more desperate.
01:02:28Can't we find out who's behind all this?
01:02:31The curse caster?
01:02:32There is a way.
01:02:33But first, I need to know something.
01:02:38Who in this house knows your birth chart?
01:02:40Only family.
01:02:42Caelan.
01:02:43Alara.
01:02:44And Marius.
01:02:46Lord Marius.
01:02:48Understood.
01:02:49I'll find the curse caster.
01:02:51Very soon.
01:02:52Duke Aldwyn.
01:02:53May I speak with you privately?
01:02:56Leave us.
01:03:03You have questions for me?
01:03:05My grandfather.
01:03:07How did he die?
01:03:11He went to the capital.
01:03:13Before he left, he came to me.
01:03:15Told me to protect you if he didn't return.
01:03:21Your family's murder.
01:03:23Your grandfather's death.
01:03:25It's all connected.
01:03:27Years ago, House Aldwyn was nearly destroyed.
01:03:31I fled to the capital alone.
01:03:33I was dying.
01:03:35Your grandfather, Thomas Cael, saved me.
01:03:38House Cael was the wealthiest in the capital.
01:03:41With his protection, my enemies couldn't touch me.
01:03:45So I rebuilt my house.
01:03:47What happened to House Cael?
01:03:49Twenty years ago, you vanished.
01:03:52Overnight.
01:03:53I don't know how.
01:03:55I don't know why.
01:03:57Later, your grandfathers came to this town with you.
01:04:01He left.
01:04:02He was never seen again.
01:04:03I felt indebted to your grandfather.
01:04:06So I arranged the betrothal.
01:04:09And I made a will.
01:04:11When you marry Alara, half of House Aldway's wealth will be yours.
01:04:21How did grandfather die?
01:04:23He must have found something.
01:04:26Someone killed him for it.
01:04:28Who destroyed my family?
01:04:29I don't know.
01:04:30But they weren't mortal.
01:04:33House Cael was too powerful to fall to ordinary men.
01:04:37You come from that world.
01:04:39The world of magic.
01:04:41You know I'm telling the truth.
01:04:45What do you suggest?
01:04:46I think they offended a shadow archmast.
01:04:49And I was cursed because they discovered my connection to your grandfather.
01:04:55Marry Alara.
01:04:56Quickly.
01:04:57Before I die.
01:04:59I can't.
01:05:00Not yet.
01:05:01Why?
01:05:02I have to avenge my family first.
01:05:05We can talk about marriage later.
01:05:07Now that I know House Alden and House Cael share the same enemy, that's enough for now.
01:05:13Do you suspect someone?
01:05:14I'll handle it.
01:05:23Duke Aldwind.
01:05:25The potion is ready.
01:05:26You have my thanks.
01:05:31I was wrong about you.
01:05:33When you're well, my lord, I'll arrange the wedding.
01:05:36I should go.
01:05:38I'll visit every day.
01:05:48Shadow Archmaster.
01:05:49The curse on my father has been broken by some young mage called Aldric.
01:05:53No worries.
01:05:54I'll cast another one.
01:05:56A stronger one.
01:05:57I could see Marry's heart race whenever I mention the traitor.
01:06:00And through this runestone link, I can see where the Shadow Archmast is.
01:06:05Murderer of my family.
01:06:07I've finally found you.
01:06:20You came.
01:06:24You knew I would.
01:06:28You have power, Aldric of House Cael, more than your father, more than your grandfather.
01:06:35You knew them.
01:06:36I killed them.
01:06:40House Cael was wealthy, powerful.
01:06:43But they had something I needed.
01:06:45A runestone to speak with dead masters.
01:06:48To enhance my powers.
01:06:50They wouldn't give it to me.
01:06:52So I took everything else.
01:06:54You murdered my family.
01:06:56I removed an obstacle.
01:06:58That runestone is in your pocket.
01:07:00Give it to me.
01:07:01Join me.
01:07:02Your power and mine.
01:07:04We could rule everything.
01:07:05I'd rather die than share my friend's gift with you.
01:07:08That can be arranged.
01:07:24Impressive.
01:07:25But not enough.
01:07:37You're strong.
01:07:39But you're young.
01:07:40You haven't learned to control your power.
01:07:43Last chance.
01:07:44Join me.
01:07:45Now, it's my turn.
01:08:12This isn't over.
01:08:15I'll return.
01:08:21For my family.
01:08:32Marius.
01:08:34You cursed me.
01:08:36You conspired with a Shadow Archmeist.
01:08:38You tried to destroy this house.
01:08:41Do you have anything to say for yourself?
01:08:47I did it for you.
01:08:49For your approval.
01:08:50For you to finally see me.
01:08:52But you never saw me.
01:08:54Only Caelan.
01:08:55The heir.
01:08:56The good son.
01:08:57I was nothing to you.
01:09:00I'm sorry, father.
01:09:03I'm so sorry.
01:09:06Under the laws of this house, the punishment for treason is death.
01:09:10But you are my son.
01:09:12And I cannot kill my son.
01:09:15What do you suggest?
01:09:16Exile.
01:09:17He leaves the kingdom.
01:09:18Never returns.
01:09:20If he does.
01:09:22If he does, he dies.
01:09:24Do you accept?
01:09:27Yes.
01:09:28Then it's done.
01:09:31Take him to the border.
01:09:33Make sure he crosses.
01:09:35And make sure he never comes back.
01:09:38The Shadow Archmeist is still out there.
01:09:41He'll come for you.
01:09:42He's already dead.
01:09:49I've lost a son today.
01:09:51You've gained a chance.
01:09:53Now.
01:09:54Let's talk about your reward.
01:10:04You saved my life.
01:10:06You saved my house.
01:10:08You avenged your family.
01:10:11Name what you want.
01:10:12Anything.
01:10:15I want to earn her.
01:10:20Earn her.
01:10:21I don't want her handed to me like a prize.
01:10:23I want to prove that I'm worthy of her.
01:10:29You already have.
01:10:32Do you accept him?
01:10:36I do.
01:10:39I do.
01:10:54No.
01:10:57If I can hurt, then I can heal.
01:11:16Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today.
01:11:25Do you, Aldric of House Kale, take this woman to be your wife?
01:11:30I do.
01:11:32Do you, Ellara of House Aldwyn, take this man to be your husband?
01:11:36I do.
01:11:37Then by the power vested in me, I pronounce you husband and wife.
01:11:51About time!
01:11:54To the happy couple!
01:11:58Are you happy?
01:12:00I'm content, which is more than I ever expected.
01:12:09That's not an answer.
01:12:10It's the only one I have.
01:12:21It's enough.
01:12:22Now we live the same, and I'm like a cat running around, holding your mind.
