00:01Deep in the Atlantic, an ancient and mysterious race flourishes.
00:07Tonight, King Kyrian of the City of Kings will personally participate in the selection of a bride.
00:15Gentlemen are welcome to present floral garlands to their loved ones.
00:19Those without a garland will become a gift for the monarch from our City of Defenses.
00:28Kyrin, is he a bloodthirsty tyrant?
00:31Which unfortunate princess do you think will be chosen to serve the tyrant?
00:35Is that even a question? It's obviously the one that's least favored.
00:42Taran and I grew up together. Last night he said he would choose me to be my knight.
00:51Begin.
01:07The final Ruth belongs to Princess Olin.
01:14Thank you, Taran.
01:21Why? We had a deal, he promised me the wreath!
01:24Because you must leave the Acropolis, Vayner. This place will soon become hell.
01:42Marrying that tyrant, she probably wouldn't survive the wedding night.
01:45A child born out of Weddock really thought she could soar to the top branch?
01:51Vayner, you should be proud. You have contributed to the peace of our family.
01:56I must escape.
02:04The candidate for the marriage.
02:07Who are you?
02:08Awww.
02:09No.
02:10Why?
02:16What?
02:25I was a boy.
02:26We injured her beat.
02:26Awww...
02:31This is not a toy.
02:33No.
02:42My lord Kian, the choice is made. The girl is Vena. We offer her to you.
02:47Your name is Vena?
02:50Sunrise, she comes with me. One second late, I'll wipe this city off the map.
02:58Wipe it off the map? He'd really do it. He'd actually do it.
03:06It's Olin's coming of age tonight. I promised her a night she'd never forget. Your sacrifice brings honor to the
03:14wreath.
03:15But after tonight, I'm getting shipped off to marry that monster.
03:22I'm so sorry, Vena. This is all my fault.
03:27Don't be silly, baby. That wreath was always yours. She was never worthy of it.
03:33If you really wanted it that bad, Vena, I could give it back.
03:37But it looks like you've got yourself a much prettier one from his lordship now, don't you?
03:45You know that's not what I...
03:54Look at you. Just look at yourself.
03:57You're a disgrace to this house.
04:02You're right. Enough.
04:04My lord. The girl.
04:07Vena. She's the one.
04:08The one you've been looking for.
04:16It's okay. I'm right here.
04:20Just breathe.
04:23Here. Take it.
04:26It was my mother's.
04:27It'll keep you safe.
04:29With this, just stay alive.
04:32What's your name?
04:34Vena.
04:34My name's Vena.
04:42Finally.
04:43I found you.
04:45My savior.
04:55Listen to me.
04:56What I said out there, I had to.
04:59I needed you to hate me.
05:00So everyone could watch me get played for a fool?
05:05No.
05:07That you would leave.
05:08Before it turns into hell.
05:10And Olin?
05:18I don't love her.
05:19Then you're even worse than I thought.
05:21I love you, Vena.
05:22I always have.
05:23The wreath was meant for you.
05:25I bribed the Northgate guards.
05:27Before sunrise, I'll get you out.
05:28Trust me one more time.
05:31Don't.
05:32You don't mean that.
05:33I don't love you, Taryn.
05:34Not anymore.
05:34And after this, we can't even be friends.
05:37You made sure of that.
05:40Fine.
05:42Don't come crying to me when they come for you.
05:44You always have been.
05:49The wreath.
05:51A promise.
05:53Just a tool to save her life.
06:00You did well tonight, Olin.
06:01Taryn has given his word.
06:03Once Vena's marriage is settled, House Othrian will support us.
06:11Why, Father?
06:13Why do you care so much about her?
06:15She's just a bastard.
06:20You don't understand.
06:22Her mother, she had power we couldn't control.
06:26Power that could destroy this family.
06:39Vena, I don't care who your mother was.
06:41I am the true heir.
06:44You'll see.
06:45In the end, you're nothing but a stray.
07:07I must leave.
07:08Then find a way to take what mother left me.
07:12Vena, stop!
07:14Taryn.
07:15Out there, there are things you don't understand.
07:18Things that will destroy you.
07:23Please!
07:25Vena!
07:28Dangerous?
07:29More dangerous than marrying a tyrant?
07:50This power, it's mine.
08:09It seems someone wishes to break the marriage pact.
08:17The Acropolis waters are my domain, Kyrian.
08:20I will not let you take her.
08:22Never!
08:24Your domain?
08:25All of Atlantis belongs to the Othian family.
08:29Whom I take, requires no one's permission.
08:52No!
08:58I'll go with you.
09:01Not because of your threats.
09:03Because I don't want to become a monster like them.
09:06Those who keep saying,
09:07they're doing it for my good,
09:09yet sacrifice me as an offering at the last moment.
09:12And you saw just now.
09:14There's something in me that I don't understand.
09:16I don't want to be dragged around by it like a blind woman.
09:18I want to master it, control it, own it.
09:25Interesting.
09:31I don't blame you.
09:33I deserve this.
09:35But I won't give up!
09:43Why does she deserve it all?
09:54From this day forward,
09:55Verna of the Norris family is a guest of the royal city.
10:00No one shall treat her with disrespect.
10:10You're afraid of me.
10:11Should I not fear someone who treats me as a trophy?
10:15I've dug into your past.
10:16Illegitimate daughter of House Norris,
10:18your mother died young,
10:18your father couldn't care less.
10:20Your only inheritance,
10:21a palace overrun by sea demons.
10:23Do you want it back?
10:25How do you know all this?
10:26Because I wanted to know.
10:29I can give you an army to take back everything that's yours.
10:37Why?
10:38I've had my fill of simpleng princesses.
10:40I want a true queen.
10:41One who stands beside me,
10:43not cowering in my shadow.
10:45That rift is growing.
10:46I need a queen who can guard the rear,
10:48one who won't bury a blade in my back
10:49the moment I turn away.
10:51How do you know I won't?
10:55Because ten years ago you gave me your heart.
10:58Now I need you to unlock it with your own hands.
11:03If you live,
11:05you must come back for me.
11:09It was you.
11:10The injured little boy.
11:13I've tried countless times over the past decade.
11:20You call upon me your strength.
11:28It was you.
11:35There are nores who have nailed it to your own hands.
11:36Don't wear them.
11:38Be beating me anywhere.
11:44There are no differences.
11:45There are no musicians.
11:45There are no managers who have stood in their family.
11:45There are no dangers.
11:46There are no One-man,
11:46There are no heads.
11:47You are going to kill them instead.
11:50I still don't run away.
11:51In the past decades,
11:58Veyna, my love, I leave it to you.
12:16Sharing a soul weapon is the highest symbiotic Kapokht in Atlantis.
12:21You've given me half your life.
12:26I knew it the first moment I laid eyes on you.
12:30You're not some princess waiting to be saved.
12:32You're a beast waiting to be woken.
12:36Just like me.
12:41Fine.
12:44I accept.
12:45I want an army.
12:47I want power to rival the queen of a century ago.
12:52And I will take back everything that belonged to my mother.
12:57Good.
13:03From this day forward, you're no longer a caged bird.
13:13You're my general now.
13:27Anger is your weapon, but don't let it ride you.
13:30Control it.
13:32Master it.
13:33angeons.
13:34Never mind.
13:34Go.
13:45Get out of here.
13:49I will.
13:53The fire whennis.
13:54Go.
13:55Go.
14:01Go.
14:02Go.
14:02Go.
14:21Finally, you've learned to fight back.
14:29Did I improve this time?
14:31You barely passed.
14:42Don't get cocky.
14:57You'll tear it right off.
15:04Easy!
15:05Now you feel it?
15:06You slammed into that wall seven times today.
15:08Didn't see you flinch once.
15:09You kept counting pretty well.
15:10Looked like you were enjoying yourself.
15:15No.
15:16It hurt.
15:19Are you going to finish the medicine or not?
15:28Does it hurt?
15:29Not anymore.
15:49My wife.
15:52I must be out of my mind falling in love with a tyrant like you.
15:56I love you too.
16:07Welcome, General Neenah!
16:09I love you too.
16:28Veena, you've changed so much.
16:31What do you want?
16:32Your father's birthday banquet.
16:34He demands your return.
16:35And a tribute, gifts and jewels, in abundance.
16:40I hadn't come for you yet, and here you are, coming for me.
16:43Tell my father I'll attend, on time, with the tribute he asked for.
16:47Vera, the Acropolis, now-
16:49I know.
16:49The rift.
16:50The things that come out of it.
16:52That's what you meant when you said the Acropolis would become hell.
16:54Thank you, for pushing me away.
16:56If it weren't for you, I might still be trapped in that cage you built for me.
17:06You're going back?
17:07Yes.
17:07My mother's legacy is there.
17:09I'm taking it back with my own hands.
17:11Consider it my dowry.
17:15That girl, the brave one who saved my life, I'll stand behind her, no conditions.
17:20You've become my one weakness, so you'll stay by my side, for life, as my queen.
17:25Then my dowry might be a little full of treasure, and an ancient sea monster.
17:29Perfect.
17:30I've got my own score to settle with your family.
17:40Let's go, Kyrian.
17:41Go tell them I'm back.
17:44For everything that's mine.
17:55Two blessings tonight.
17:57My birthday, and my wayward daughter returning to the fold.
18:02Wayward.
18:03What a delicate way to put it.
18:14My daughter, you've returned.
18:17Where are the gifts?
18:18Here.
18:21One question first.
18:23Was my mother stripped of her power for breaking the law or for exposing what you were hiding?
18:28Don't bother.
18:29I'll take what's hers myself.
18:32What is that thing?
18:34I am the dowry.
18:35Her power, her palace, her humiation, her truth, her revenge, all of it.
18:41My dowry.
18:44Take it?
18:47More than anything.
18:49Lady Serafina is exonerated.
18:51Every house involved, surrender the guilty within three days.
18:53Fail, and it's war.
18:55Patriarch Norris, your banquet is over.
18:57She did it for three days!
18:59Sabrina was murdered?
19:05This is what you've been holding back.
19:07Just the beginning.
19:09The real threat is still sleeping.
19:11My mother, it was because of this.
19:13Yes.
19:14They built their fortunes in that vein.
19:17And they'll do anything to bury the truth.
19:20That the vein feeds an ancient calamity waking beneath us.
19:23Then they'll know.
19:24Everyone will.
19:25I've been waiting for that.
19:39Can't sleep?
19:42Thinking about my mother.
19:44Wondering if she saw the same thing from this window.
19:49When did you know it was me?
19:51On the sea.
19:52The moment you unleashed that water blade.
19:55Your power and the power inside this stone.
19:58Same route.
20:00So you never came for a bride?
20:02I came for one person.
20:04A girl who pulled me back from death ten years ago.
20:07She asked for nothing.
20:10I just couldn't let someone die.
20:12That was enough.
20:14The first time anyone wanted me to live.
20:16For nothing in return.
20:18All these years, every time I was close to breaking, I'd hear your voice.
20:22Dolphins guide that the good one runs home.
20:25I'm not good.
20:27But I want to be someone you lead home.
20:29You already are.
20:31From the moment you rode that beast through the door.
20:52Two decrees.
20:541. Vena Serafina, daughter of Lady Serafina, commander of the First Legion. The Dolphin Corpse, the Whale Riders, and the
21:04Ababiss Vanguard are yours.
21:07General Vena!
21:092. I, Kieran Othian, swear by my sole weapon, I take Vena Serafina as my queen, to rule beside me.
21:18Her enemies, mine. Her will, my command. Her vengeance, my war.
21:382. It's getting wider.
21:48Sooner or later it'll wake. Fully. And all of Atlantis will answer for it.
21:56Are you afraid?
22:00I was. Afraid I'd never find you. Afraid I'd face it alone. Now. Not afraid anymore.
22:09Why?
22:10Because you're here.
22:13Together.
22:14Together.
22:24The real.
