Short filmTranscript
00:00:04As my husband, I've lost count of how many times Sassi has paraded his ally right in front of me.
00:00:11Of course, tonight is an exception.
00:00:14He thinks I'm visiting relatives in the country.
00:00:17He hasn't the faintest idea.
00:00:20Little does he know, this is where my revenge begins.
00:00:26Parasites.
00:00:30Since everyone's wearing a mask, no one knows who's who.
00:00:41So if you can mess about right in front of me,
00:00:48why shouldn't I do the same?
00:00:57That woman's back. Looks awfully familiar.
00:01:04Stay the night with me.
00:01:06What do you say?
00:01:07I'm just an ally, my lady.
00:01:09You're all.
00:01:11Why let rank spoil the fun?
00:01:15A noblewoman luring to be with these kind of trash.
00:01:19Are you quite sure you can handle the consequences?
00:01:47What are you doing?
00:01:50I'm just an ally.
00:01:51I'm actually pregnant.
00:01:56That man certainly knew how to put on a show.
00:01:59As long as Scar believes this child is his,
00:02:02everything my grandfather left me will eventually be mine again.
00:02:06My lady, I've come to change your bedding and your rag.
00:02:10Why now, of all times?
00:02:12Just a moment!
00:02:14Scar hasn't touched me in six months.
00:02:17Before I announce the pregnancy, I need him to sleep with me one more time.
00:02:21Melrith! The carriage is waiting!
00:02:24If we're late for the victory banquet, the blame falls on you!
00:02:30You're getting completely out of hand.
00:02:32What the devil are you doing in here?
00:02:37Sneaking around. What are you up to?
00:02:41Nothing.
00:02:42Why are your hands behind your back?
00:02:44You're standing on it.
00:02:45Ugh!
00:02:47Throwing your filthy rags on the floor like this?
00:02:50Disgusting!
00:02:53Forgive me, my lord.
00:02:55I was just about to tidy the room and change her ladyship's rags.
00:02:58Wait outside.
00:02:59I'll get dressed and be right out.
00:03:00Hurry it up.
00:03:12Feed me another one.
00:03:19My lord.
00:03:20I prefer the curtains drawn.
00:03:22If you cared so much about appearances, you shouldn't have brought her into the carriage.
00:03:28Tonight is a banquet hosted by his majesty himself for my cousin, Erik.
00:03:32If you hadn't married me, a merchant's daughter like you would never set foot in the royal palace your entire
00:03:38life.
00:03:39Exactly.
00:03:40I'd defeat for a chance to go inside.
00:03:42You've no right to complain.
00:03:43If it weren't for my merchant fortune, you wouldn't even be able to afford this carriage.
00:03:48You'd have to go roll around in the dirt.
00:03:51I never want to hear you say that again.
00:03:53Don't forget.
00:03:54The deeds and shops your grandfather left behind all belong to me now.
00:04:01Let me help you cool off, my lord.
00:04:04Grandfather must have been blind to leave everything in his hands.
00:04:07Don't give me that look.
00:04:09As long as we play the happy couple, my cousin will think I'm a respectable man.
00:04:15And the northern ration contracts will stay in my hands.
00:04:33General.
00:04:35His majesty has sent word.
00:04:36The banquet is about to begin.
00:04:38The time of controlling the illusions is getting shorter.
00:04:41Still not found that woman?
00:04:43There were too many people that night.
00:04:44We're still screening them.
00:04:46After that night, the hallucinations stopped for two whole days.
00:04:52And it was only with her.
00:04:54Keep digging.
00:04:59Be a good girl and wait in the carriage.
00:05:01I'll be back right after the banquet.
00:05:06My lady.
00:05:07After you.
00:05:11Is that Vatret Skr's wife?
00:05:13I heard she's a merchant's daughter.
00:05:16No wonder she lacks class.
00:05:18Look at you.
00:05:20Go and beg Lilith to swap dresses with you.
00:05:22Stop embarrassing me here.
00:05:27Count Horne.
00:05:28It's been too long.
00:05:30Looking as dashering as ever I see.
00:05:39I'd rather be thrown out than beg her for anything.
00:05:44I'm sorry.
00:05:44My apologies, my lady.
00:05:45But we cannot allow you inside dressed like that.
00:05:48I know.
00:05:49That's why I need to borrow your sword for a moment.
00:05:51Please don't make a scene here, ma'am.
00:05:53I-I just...
00:05:56Use mine.
00:06:05it's the man from the masquerade general sir the general soska's cousin is him if you keep my lady

00:07:08my life for the empire he looks as though he's in pain
00:07:13rumor has it he defeat people just for fun since he's been back
00:07:18you always take matters into your own hands stay away from me whilst i make my rounds
00:07:22tonight i don't want people thinking i'm married a taylor's daughter
00:07:29perhaps he's not what the rumors say
00:07:33a toast to you general
00:07:37it's getting worse
00:07:41no i need to find edward see if they've brought any spare prisoners
00:07:47cousin the party's just starting what's the rush what is it
00:07:52oh nothing much just notice the requisition orders for the border rations have paused lately
00:07:57the north is secure sure but our garrisons out there eat through supplies fast we can't let
00:08:01the transport stop save the front line some coin i've been keeping prices rock bottom for years
00:08:07i hardly make a dime
00:08:12so regarding the rations contract
00:08:19shut up
00:08:21cousin
00:08:22rations were always tight while i was on the front
00:08:24we only secured the area a month ago
00:08:26yet when i dressed as an ally
00:08:28and slipped into your estate your little masquerade was quite the lavish affair
00:08:32general i believe you are mistaken
00:08:37the heavy snows blocked the northern passes
00:08:40many merchant guilds refused to go near the border even if it meant taking a loss
00:08:44scar hosted that ball simply to placify the gang leaders
00:08:48yes yes exactly all for the empire
00:08:51you're defending him
00:08:54just stating the facts
00:08:55and what are you to him
00:08:57his wife
00:08:59so was the lady of the house present at the masquerade that night
00:09:08you misunderstand me general
00:09:10i'm merely speaking up for my husband
00:09:12as for the masquerade i wasn't there i was visiting my aunt in the country
00:09:15so you're not worried about your husband fooling around behind your back
00:09:19you cut off his contracts and publicly challenge him over a single party

00:09:38general
00:09:40i want a new logistics plan on my desk in two days
00:09:43if it's the same garbage as before
00:09:46then you're done with the northern contracts
00:09:48forever
00:09:48yes yes of course
00:09:50i'll redraw everything
00:10:01a stroke of luck actually
00:10:02there's no way scar can come up with a new plan
00:10:04if i use this to make him sleep with me again
00:10:07then you can stay
00:10:08loud and clear
00:10:14good thing you had one on standby
00:10:22general please let me go
00:10:24i'm just a foot soldier

00:10:30please no please
00:10:35crimson raven

00:10:51i'm quite sure you can handle the consequences
00:10:56who's there
00:11:06crimson raven
00:11:07why haven't you found her yet

00:11:30and i'm killing his child
00:11:32if he finds out i only used him for his spirit
00:11:34he'll tear me to pieces
00:11:36no
00:11:36the planning research can start
00:11:45women who come to my door usually fall into one of two categories
00:11:48those who want to get pregnant with someone else's child
00:11:50and those who want to get rid of their own
00:11:53which one are you
00:11:54the latter
00:11:58i'm out of a few herbs
00:11:59i need to go fetch them
00:12:10there's a gentleman in the back room
00:12:11who claims he's being haunted by the dead
00:12:13if you hear him ring the bell
00:12:15do me a favor and toss some of this incense
00:12:16i need to get rid of his hands into the burner for him

00:12:30what is scar's wife doing in a place like this
00:12:38with someone else's child and those who want to get rid of their own
00:12:42those who want to get no
00:12:45surely the general doesn't think i'm the latter
00:12:46i hear you and scar have only been married for three months
00:12:49in such a rush to have a baby
00:12:51you're awfully invested in other people's private matters general
00:12:55get out
00:13:00i caused the burn
00:13:02the least i can do is treat
00:13:03not necessary leave the medicine i'll do it myself
00:13:05you can't exactly reach your own back
00:13:15what a perfect body
00:13:17do you usually tend to your own mark general
00:13:20yes i don't like people touching my body
00:13:23apologies

00:13:27have you seen it before
00:13:31never
00:13:31is that so
00:13:33i think it would suit you perfectly
00:13:37general please mind your boundaries
00:13:40her scent exactly the same
00:13:48changed your mind
00:13:50if the man inside asked what i was doing here tell him the exact opposite

00:14:19don't be so grumpy my lord
00:14:22besides
00:14:23selling off a few properties will keep us comfortable for a long time
00:14:26what do you know
00:14:27i refuse to end up like my father
00:14:30eating through his fortune till nothing was left but the title of a broke nobleman
00:14:41but i suppose you have a point
00:14:43what's the harm in selling one or two
00:14:50i can't keep the baby
00:14:53i can't keep it
00:14:57did you hear the alley is starting to sell off the family estates

00:16:14you seem
00:16:15different today
00:16:17you were just too focused on my grandfather's money to notice
00:16:20save it
00:16:20if you fix this logistics mess i might actually treat you a bit better
00:16:23on the condition that you stop selling off the grandfather's estate
00:16:29deal
00:16:32but wait
00:16:33what is it
00:16:34you're more beautiful

00:16:44that was close
00:16:51wait
00:16:52is that her ladyship
00:16:54breath
00:16:54are you crazy
00:16:56how dare you fantasize about her ladyship
00:17:01i think i heard it too
00:17:05i think i heard it too
00:17:10don't do that
00:17:11did you hear
00:17:12her ladyship actually consummated the marriage with the ally
00:17:16i thought he never touched her
00:17:17it's true
00:17:21doesn't she find him repulsive
00:17:24finally over
00:17:27if he tries to sell my inheritance once he'll do it again
00:17:30how much worse can things possibly get
00:17:33i'm risking it
00:17:35it's not as if i have any other way out
00:17:45you don't want to make a fool of yourself in front of your cousin do you
00:17:53that was rape
00:17:55rape
00:17:55aren't we husband and wife
00:17:57are you going to tell the whole world that i raped you lord banknet
00:18:00a merchant's daughter
00:18:01shameless as expected
00:18:02your grandfather's entail is clear
00:18:05only your legitimate child can inherit the valentine shops lands and granaries
00:18:10but i'm telling you right now you won't get a second chance like that
00:18:13what once wasn't enough
00:18:14do you really have that little faith in your own stamina
00:18:17you bitch
00:18:18don't celebrate just yet melis
00:18:19once you secure those northern contracts for me you'll be completely useless
00:18:23i'll make you wish you were dead
00:18:29two days
00:18:32interesting
00:18:32seems you haven't been slacking after all
00:18:35of course
00:18:37how could i neglect a direct order from the general
00:18:39i poured my energy sweat and tears into this
00:18:42but why does it say to bypass ashport
00:18:46well
00:18:47because
00:18:48because that port is
00:18:49narrow
00:18:51right
00:18:51the roads are terrible
00:18:53i hear it's the largest port in the entire empire
00:18:55did you not know that
00:18:56because ashport has been cracking down on salt smuggling recently
00:18:59the caravans are critical military ranchers for the north
00:19:01if they go through ashport and get detained on suspicion of smuggling
00:19:04the delays would starve the northern garrisons within three weeks
00:19:06that's why we must reroute through the eastern waterways
00:19:09although it adds four days to the journey
00:19:12but at least it's secure
00:19:20fascinating
00:19:21it seems you aren't the real businessmen in the alfronson family sky
00:19:24no that's not true
00:19:25a lot of the other routes were my idea
00:19:28i hate being lied to
00:19:30next time it'll be your throat on the end of this wave
00:19:34close one
00:19:35looks like he still hasn't recognized me
00:19:36northern contracts are yours fine
00:19:39but she has to be involved
00:19:41but cousin
00:19:42get out
00:19:45lady melis
00:20:05melis valentine
00:20:07your grandfather built a fine business
00:20:09but a merchant's a merchant
00:20:11the alfronsi's family's fallen shore
00:20:14but they still have have a title
00:20:15you married him
00:20:16give and take
00:20:19must be humiliating though
00:20:26if you're trying to stir trouble between us i'll leave
00:20:31the north is secured but the empire is still surrounded

00:28:33how did you come by these
00:28:34our grandfather had a pair of pearl earrings
00:28:36custom made for every girl in the valentine family
00:28:40my cousin likely has a pair very similar to mine
00:28:42but not quite the same
00:28:43where were you a month ago
00:28:44i had gone to visit my cousin that day
00:28:46but as it turned out
00:28:47she happened to be away at her mother's
00:28:48when i arrived i saw the castle was hosting a masquerade ball
00:28:50and i was curious
00:28:51i heard you've been searching for the person from that
00:28:53so i finally worked up the courage to come to you
00:28:55i know this is hardly proper but i
00:28:57i simply couldn't forget you
00:28:59how can she spew such nauseating lies without a shred of shame
00:29:04lady melris
00:29:06is what she said true
00:29:13lady melris
00:29:16is what she said true

00:29:46general aren't we going to talk a little longer
00:30:01lord eric
00:30:02thank you for saving me yesterday
00:30:06i'll take my leave now
00:30:08i also hope the general can keep what happened last night to himself
00:30:11wait
00:30:11i saved you only because i have no interest in seeing my business partner come to harm
00:30:18business partner
00:30:20when did i ever agree to that
00:30:21the north cannot go a single day without grain shipments
00:30:24scar is worse than useless
00:30:25i was counting on you from the start
00:30:27are you really going to turn me down
00:30:29take it
00:30:30come work for me
00:30:32and i can offer you compensation beyond anything you'd imagine
00:30:36no
00:30:37if i stay by his side my belly will grow day by day
00:30:39he'll find out about the pregnancy sooner or later
00:30:40this madman will never let me go
00:30:42i appreciate the offer my lord but i must declare the proposal is already in your hands
00:30:45i'm sure finding someone capable of understanding it won't be difficult
00:30:47i told you i have the power to help you reclaim every last piece of your grandfather's estate
00:30:50what you at least can consider
00:30:51perhaps you're not aware but that fool scar could never hold onto an estate of that size
00:30:56even the royal family has their eyes on that prize now
00:30:59what do you think
00:31:00will scar fight to the death to keep it or will he trade your grandfather's legacy for a title
00:31:04and a promotion
00:31:10have you made up your mind
00:31:12if what he says is true
00:31:14time is running out
00:31:15i have to take this gamble
00:31:17but he can never ever find out about the child
00:31:19i have two conditions
00:31:21name them
00:31:22first i'll serve as your advisor for two months
00:31:24with full authority over the northern trade routes
00:31:25after two months whether i succeed or fail
00:31:28you will honor your promise and help me reclaim my entire inheritance
00:31:30fine and the second
00:31:34i
00:31:36i'd like to receive part of my payment in advance to purchase a residence
00:31:39because of scar
00:31:41you've seen it yourself
00:31:42that scum would do anything for money
00:31:44i need somewhere safe
00:31:47scar and his mistress have already been thrown into the dungeon
00:31:50on suspicion of treason and collying with the enemy
00:31:52you
00:31:52when did you
00:31:53while you were unconscious
00:31:54and i've also had edward replace every last guard at your castle
00:31:58he had everything set in motion long before i woke up
00:32:01step by step he's been backing me into a corner
00:32:03what a ruthless calculating bastard
00:32:07you have my gratitude general for all the trouble you've gone to
00:32:13melris
00:32:14just how long do you think you can keep running from me
00:32:22melris
00:32:22what were you doing coming out of general eric's estate today
00:32:25and wearing his shirt no less
00:32:27am i required to report my whereabouts to you
00:32:29you don't have to report anything to me
00:32:30but you're a married woman spending the night in another man's house
00:32:33have you no shame
00:32:34aren't you worried about dragging the valentine name through the mud
00:32:36general eric is scar's cousin
00:32:38i call him my brother-in-law
00:32:39what's wrong with visiting family
00:32:40forget it i didn't come here to argue
00:32:42i just wanted to remind you
00:32:43you're already married
00:32:43so the woman general eric has been searching for
00:32:45all across the city can only be me
00:32:47after all you didn't come to my house that night did you
00:32:49i trust you know exactly what you do my dear cousin
00:32:50i know you envy me being the woman who'll soon be at general eric's side
00:32:54not like you
00:32:55your mother died young and if grandfather hadn't gone see me
00:32:58and left you a scrap of the estate
00:32:59even scar would have been out of your league
00:33:01so now that i've got something on you
00:33:02you better fall in line
00:33:04you dare hit me
00:33:05i'll help you
00:33:06but insulting grandfather that you deserved
00:33:09and one more thing
00:33:10my parents may have died young but they did teach me one lesson
00:33:14do not provoke me and i will not provoke you
00:33:16but if you do provoke me
00:33:18i will return it a hundred fold
00:33:21starting tomorrow
00:33:22i'll use my knee injury as an excuse
00:33:24i'll tell eric i can't travel
00:33:25so he'll have to come here for our discussions
00:33:29when that happens
00:33:30you can seize the opportunity yourself
00:33:33since when are you so generous
00:33:34i need someone to distract him
00:33:36you need a chance to get close to him
00:33:39we each get what we want
00:33:40you'd better mean what you say
00:33:43your vanity dear cousin
00:33:45has just done me an enormous favor
00:33:54two months
00:33:55the northern route must be solid
00:33:57how much does your garrison need for spring
00:34:00it's still winter
00:34:01why ask that now
00:34:04to be prepared
00:34:05spring floods are coming
00:34:07every foot the river rises
00:34:08the supply boats draw one less foot
00:34:11one delay
00:34:12and the northern forts go hungry for three days
00:34:17why are you here
00:34:18my cousin asked me to stay
00:34:19so i did
00:34:21i heard you talking about supplies
00:34:23grandfather taught me a thing or two
00:34:25hope you don't mind
00:34:26if you have something useful to say
00:34:28say it
00:34:31then i'll be bold
00:34:32about the northern route
00:34:34there are only three routes
00:34:35she stayed up all night memorizing my plan
00:34:38word for word
00:34:39but is he really that attractive
00:34:40that road is safest
00:34:41but the terrain is rough
00:34:43so the caravans can load at the eastern waterway
00:34:45that way the relay stations won't be overwhelmed
00:34:52just some thoughts general
00:34:54don't laugh at me
00:34:58seems the valiant family has more than one businesswoman
00:35:02you're too kind general
00:35:04i just read a few books
00:35:05nothing like my cousin
00:35:09lady melris
00:35:14did you arrange lady adele for me
00:35:16as a surprise
00:35:20of course not
00:35:22general don't joke like that
00:35:30just joking
00:35:31no offense lady adele
00:35:41but you named three routes
00:35:43greyport's got salt inspections
00:35:45eastern waterway's risky in spring floods
00:35:48northern road has bandits
00:35:49if you had to pick one
00:35:51which is safest
00:35:53that sounds simple
00:35:55but it's not
00:35:55weather
00:35:56manpower
00:35:58military schedules
00:35:59i haven't figured it out yet
00:36:04use all three general
00:36:05spread the risk
00:36:06if one fails the others keep the supply going
00:36:10three routes cost three times the money
00:36:12if the empire just wanted to buy safety
00:36:15why hire merchants just print more coin
00:36:18business is like war
00:36:20memorizing tactics doesn't make you a general
00:36:23he knew
00:36:24he knew she was just reciting
00:36:27i'm sorry
00:36:28i didn't think it through
00:36:31that bitch
00:36:32she left out details on purpose
00:36:36made me look like a fool in front of him
00:36:41took you long enough
00:36:43you want to die
00:36:45sorry my lady
00:36:46i didn't want it to be too hot
00:36:49useless

00:37:10so i had the kitchen make coffee
00:37:12for the general
00:37:14and my cousin
00:37:25cousin
00:37:26you used to love this blend as a child
00:37:28still the same i hope
00:37:30she knows this coffee gives me cramps
00:37:32and i'm pregnant
00:37:34thank you cousin but
00:37:36i ground the beans myself this morning
00:37:38you won't even take a sip

00:37:59she'll say i challenge her
00:38:01but where can i pour it with him watching
00:38:06general
00:38:09next time you don't want something
00:38:11knock it over
00:38:12in front of me
00:38:13you don't have to spare anyone's feelings

00:38:19general you drank hers too
00:38:28sorry let me clean that up
00:38:39i've got it
00:38:40someone said give me a lever and i'll move the world
00:38:43why not find a lever for the northern route too
00:38:46why not find a lever for the northern route too
00:38:47you mean silver bush
00:38:49right
00:38:50greyport can't handle big wagons
00:38:53but it can take sealed crates and small boats
00:38:56eastern waterways risky in spring
00:38:58but light boats
00:38:59but light boats can make it
00:39:00northern road runs empty carriages and guards
00:39:03by the time anyone notices the grain's already in the north
00:39:06so we split everything into three
00:39:09send to silverberg first
00:39:10the enemy sees three fake roads
00:39:13but the real way they never see coming
00:39:18a diversion
00:39:19brilliant
00:39:20you really are the one i chose melris
00:39:24you're too kind
00:39:25there she goes again

00:39:32and your hands
00:39:35don't scratch

00:39:40scratching all these scars
00:39:42you put something in the coffee
00:39:53i didn't i swear
00:39:58get a physician
00:39:59if there's anything in that coffee that shouldn't be there
00:40:01the dungeon is the least of your worries
00:40:03general i was only trying to
00:40:05get out
00:40:09general until the physician arrives
00:40:11perhaps the itching will get worse
00:40:12let me make you a salve
00:40:14my grandfather taught me some remedies
00:40:16fine
00:40:17try
00:40:19quick
00:40:20get me plantae
00:40:21calumdala

00:40:29close the door
00:40:45general
00:40:46the salve is ready
00:40:47then what are you waiting for
00:40:49come here help me put it on
00:40:51but you said you don't like people touching you
00:40:54once is strange
00:40:55twice is familiar
00:40:56not the first time
00:40:57still shy
00:40:58who's shy
00:41:09who's shy
00:41:10have to admit
00:41:11this body
00:41:12those muscles
00:41:14it's deadly
00:41:20had enough
00:41:23what i
00:41:27your salve works
00:41:29itching's almost gone
00:41:30but your technique is terrible
00:41:35general
00:41:36the rash is definitely from stinging nettle
00:41:39but the coffee is clean
00:41:41no poison
00:41:42what
00:41:57general
00:41:58i've tested both cups carefully
00:42:00no poison
00:42:01whatsoever
00:42:02but the handle of
00:42:03this cup
00:42:04there's trace amounts of stinging nettle pulp
00:42:09general you heard him
00:42:11no poison in the coffee
00:42:12i was just trying to be nice
00:42:13how could i possibly want to hurt you
00:42:15it must be the kitchen staff
00:42:16they handled wild vegetables without washing their hands
00:42:18then they touched the cups
00:42:19that's possible
00:42:20young nettle can be boiled and eaten
00:42:22some servants use it as cheap greens
00:42:24cousin this is your castle
00:42:26aren't you going to question your own servants
00:42:28if someone tried to poison the general
00:42:30that's a death sentence
00:42:38the pulp is dry by now
00:42:40no one saw her do it
00:42:41even if we investigate
00:42:43she'll blame the kitchen
00:42:45general the physician already said
00:42:46there's no poison
00:42:47you're not seriously hurt
00:42:49why don't we leave it here
00:42:50otherwise someone might use this
00:42:52to sow discord in the household
00:42:53cousin
00:42:55are you still accusing me
00:42:59just thinking out loud
00:43:00don't read too much into it cousin
00:43:06my lady
00:43:07duke isles has arrived
00:43:12oh duke isles

00:43:20father someone tried to say i poisoned general eric's coffee
00:43:23eric
00:43:24my daughter is spoiled but never dare poison anyone
00:43:27this must be a misunderstanding
00:43:28don't you agree
00:43:35same valentine blood
00:43:36how can they be so different
00:43:40duke don't worry
00:43:41this happened in lady melris's castle
00:43:43she's not pressing charges
00:43:44neither am i
00:43:46good
00:43:47a misunderstanding then
00:43:49let's move on
00:43:50no
00:43:50we can't just let this go
00:43:52her servants must be the ones who did this
00:43:55we should question every single one of them
00:43:57shut your mouth adele
00:43:58if you want eric
00:44:00don't act like a fool in front of him
00:44:02know when to stop
00:44:04understand
00:44:06general i'm also here on the emperor's orders
00:44:08he's concerned
00:44:09you locked up valent scar for treason
00:44:11but he's still a titled noble
00:44:13you didn't file any paperwork with the court
00:44:15that puts the emperor in a difficult position
00:44:17it's a delicate matter
00:44:18i am a witness
00:44:19the man who broke into my castle admitted scar sent him to assault me
00:44:22lady melris the emperor is sympathetic to your ordeal
00:44:25but one woman's testimony isn't enough to convict a vittart
00:44:28besides you're still husband and wife
00:44:29wouldn't it be more dignified to find a compromise
00:44:32no compromise
00:44:34lady melris the emperor's wish is
00:44:36you can tell the emperor this
00:44:38i may be a merchant's daughter but i won't be bullied
00:44:40if he wants me to drop this
00:44:41susker returns everything my grandfather left me and he divorces me
00:44:45that's
00:44:47i agree
00:44:54the valentine estate is tied to the northern supply route
00:44:57it's a matter of imperial security

00:46:00less than to the month our plan was ready
00:46:03the first tushed shipment was about to leave

00:47:25you've opened the northern supply route in such a short time
00:47:28you flatter me my lord
00:47:30none of this would be possible without general eric's trust
00:47:34and your support behind the scenes
00:47:36merris
00:47:37uncle
00:47:38the general isn't here yet
00:47:40he's dealing with urgent military matters
00:47:42he asked me to open the evening in his place
00:47:45a married woman
00:47:46acting like she's the lady of the house
00:47:48how does she have the nerve
00:47:52general
00:47:53the banquet has started
00:47:55aren't you going
00:47:56better to let it out here
00:47:58than lose control in front of everyone
00:48:05tonight i want every noble in the capital to see what melris is worth
00:48:09the northern supply plan plus the support of the aristocracy
00:48:12even if the emperor resists he'll have to let her take back what's hers
00:48:15general you've gone to great lengths for her
00:48:19she deserves it
00:48:20general eric is just so busy
00:48:22he insists on doing everything himself
00:48:24but he told me tonight's banquet
00:48:27nominally for celebration but actually
00:48:29actually what adele don't stop there
00:48:32actually it's for me
00:48:34is he going to propose
00:48:36oh don't say that
00:48:37but
00:48:38soon
00:48:40unlike some people
00:48:41can't even keep her own husband
00:48:43her inheritance is slipping away
00:48:45how pathetic
00:48:48same old lines
00:48:49no imagination
00:48:50cousin
00:48:51once the general and i are engaged
00:48:53do you really think you can keep hanging around him
00:48:55a married woman
00:48:56if that happens i'll congratulate you
00:48:58in another month my partnership with the general ends
00:49:01he'll be all yours
00:49:02what did you say
00:49:07say that again
00:49:08general
00:49:09you're finally here
00:49:17who invited her
00:49:25who invited her

00:49:49why did you invite that woman
00:49:53you said i could arrange the guest list
00:49:55not her
00:49:55a liar
00:49:57the duke is the emperor's right hand
00:49:59i couldn't not invite him and he'd bring her
00:50:03so you sold me out to get your inheritance back
00:50:05yes
00:50:06if that's how you see it
00:50:08but do you really want the emperor to think you're a threat
00:50:11distrust you
00:50:13even turn against you
00:50:15then you'd lose everything
00:50:16just like me
00:50:18you're worried about me
00:50:20i'm not
00:50:21i just want to know how you'll help me get my inheritance back
00:50:23the two months are almost out
00:50:27melris
00:50:29why do you keep pushing me away
00:50:48general eric where did you go

00:51:46lady adele if you please
00:51:51yes
00:51:54eric let's be honest
00:51:56we both know adele isn't a woman from that night
00:52:00but do you really want the truth to come out
00:52:02even if you could prove she's lying
00:52:06would you dare
00:52:07the emperor himself wouldn't dare speak to me like that
00:52:10then go ahead

00:52:18the emperor would welcome it
00:52:20it's best for everyone
