AmusantTranscription
00:01Pour 3 ans, Seraphine a dit qu'elle est pregnant avec un enfant de dragon.
00:06Le midwife brought the bundle out, et le room allait complètement silent.
00:10C'était pas un enfant. C'était pas un enfant. C'était pas un enfant.
00:14C'était un enfant, un enfant. C'était un enfant.
00:18C'était un enfant, un enfant.
00:19C'était un enfant.
00:21C'était un enfant.
00:22Je m'appelle Ren.
00:23J'ai vécu deux fois.
00:25C'est la première fois que je suis venu dans le monde à Seraphine.
00:27C'était un enfant.
00:29J'ai vu que les enfants ne voulaient pas.
00:30Ma dragon father only glanced at me.
00:32Ma snake mother decided I was the reason her life had fallen apart.
00:36She cut out my tongue and gouged out my eyes.
00:39She threw me into the thraw pens before I was six months old.
00:42Finally, they fed me to the hunting dogs and ate me.
00:46When I died, I met the ancient.
00:48She gave me a chance.
00:50I chose to be Aunt Selene's child.
00:52What I didn't account for was Seraphine.
00:54She had been given the same second chance.
00:56The healer had just confirmed the pregnancy
00:59The moment she heard the news
01:01She demanded three doses of an abortifacient draft
01:04She thought that if she ended the pregnancy
01:06Aldric would never leave her
01:08But what she was carrying this time
01:10Was a true dragon heir
01:14The dragon king had declared it claiming
01:16Whichever of his nine princes fathered a dragonborn child
01:19Would inherit the throne
01:21Of all nine princes
01:22The third prince Aldric had the strongest claim
01:25His own blood was pure
01:27And his chosen constant Seraphine
01:29Carried traces of true dragon lineage
01:33This is wonderful Seraphine
01:35We are both with children
01:38I never thought I would carry it again
01:40The familiar voice confirmed it
01:42I was truly inside my aunt Selene's womb
01:45Selene was gentle and kind
01:48Her health however was fragile
01:49She had entered the palace at the same time as Seraphine
01:52And been given to the seventh prince
01:54A man as quietly ailing as she was
01:56While Seraphine was tormenting me
01:58Selene had been the only one who treated me with any kindness
02:01After I died
02:03It was Selene who wrested my body from the dog's mouths
02:06She built me a small grave marker
02:08And said prayers over it every day
02:10That was how I accumulated enough spiritual merit
02:13To stand before the ancient at all
02:15Before I had long to enjoy it
02:17I heard Seraphine's voice from outside
02:20Physician
02:20I don't want this child
02:22Give me a droth to end it
02:26Seraphine
02:27Have you lost your mind?
02:29You have waited so long for this child
02:31Why would you end it?
02:32In my previous life
02:33Seraphine had been cautious throughout her pregnancy
02:36Now she was demanding an abortifacient
02:39The moment the healer confirmed the news
02:41She had been reborn too
02:43There was no other explanation
02:46Because it's a wretched thing
02:48Selene
02:49I know what I'm carrying
02:51It is not a dragon
02:53It's a little black snake
02:54And when Aldric sees it
02:56He will leave me
02:57I won't let that happen
03:01The child isn't even born yet
03:03How can you know what it is?
03:06And if Aldric truly leaves you over a child
03:08Your anger belongs with him
03:10Not with it
03:11Seraphine wasn't listening
03:13Physician!
03:14Come here at once!
03:16My lady
03:17Dragon blood is sacred
03:18By the dragon king's own decree
03:20No one may end a pregnancy of their own will
03:23Those who do are exiled from dragon king permanently
03:26If you persist
03:27I will have no choice but to report this to the dragon king himself
03:30Seraphine would die sooner than leave Aldric
03:33She would never willingly leave the dragon court
03:36I was joking
03:38Of course I want this child
03:40I love this child dearly
03:44But the moment she stepped somewhere with no one watching
03:46She drove her fist hard into her own belly
03:51You little wretch
03:53This life I will be rid of you
03:59News of both pregnancies reached the dragon king quickly
04:02With only two of his prince's consorts expecting heirs
04:05He was openly delighted
04:06The seventh prince, Edric
04:08Was so overjoyed when he learned of Selene's pregnancy
04:11That he didn't sleep the whole night
04:13He pressed his lips to her belly
04:15Little one, don't give your mother trouble
04:17Be good and quiet
04:19And when you come out
04:21I'll take you to the market and buy you meat pie
04:23The child won't even have teeth
04:27Whatever she wants, I'll find a way
04:29I'd pull stars out of the sky if she asked
04:32Edric
04:34What if it isn't a dragon?
04:35What if it's only a snake?
04:36Would you still want us?
04:38He went still
04:38Then he pulled her close
04:40Selene
04:41Do you want to leave me?
04:42He held her tighter
04:43Dragon or snake or anything else in between
04:46I won't let either of you go
04:47Not ever
04:48It sounded like something a lovesick boy would say
04:51Selene laughed and cried at the same time
04:53I felt it too, that warm
04:55He built her cradle himself
04:57And carved small wooden horses for me to play with
05:00Every evening he pressed his ear to Selene's belly
05:03And told me stories
05:04He even sought out the most experienced midwives in the palace
05:08And learned everything they knew about tending to mothers and infants
05:11Selene, for her part
05:13Took care of everything
05:15Every step
05:16Every movement
05:17So as not to disturb me
05:18I did my part in return
05:20And whenever I found something wrong in Selene's body
05:23Old illness
05:24Stagnant blood
05:25A quiet weakness she had carried for years
05:27I quietly consumed it
05:31Four months of her past like this
05:33Selene had not gained so much as an ounce
05:36But her face was flushed and healthy
05:38Her skin had color
05:39The shadows under her eyes were gone
05:46Most women weaken during pregnancy
05:48Their bodies are drawn upon
05:49But your highness has grown stronger
05:51Old ailments I once thought permanent have simply vanished
05:54The only time I have ever seen a pulse like this
05:57Was when the late dragon queen carried the dragon king himself
06:01Edric, did you hear that?
06:03The baby is healing me
06:05She's so small and already so thoughtful
06:08She's going to be the kindest, most remarkable child
06:11She really is a blessing
06:13And she hasn't even arrived yet
06:14Neither of them had paid any attention to the physician's final words
06:18That my pulse resembled the dragon king's own
06:22Whatever I turned out to be
06:24They would have held on to me
06:25Selene, once she had calmed herself
06:26How Seraphine was faring
06:29At the mention of Seraphine
06:31The physician's expression darkened
06:32I have never in my life seen
06:34A mother less willing to protect her own child
06:37Seraphine had spent the past four months making herself miserable
06:40She ate food that inflamed the baby
06:43Hot, bitter things in turns
06:44The child reacted violently, kicking without rest
06:48And Seraphine's own suffering was considerable
06:50She vomited constantly
06:54Aldric found her revolting and stayed away
06:56Seraphine, furious, blamed everything on the child inside her
07:01When she heard that strenuous movement might disturb the baby's sleep
07:05She began moving without pause
07:08When she learned the hot springs could cause damage
07:11She soaked in it until her skin peeled
07:15Whatever is inside her is remarkable, frankly
07:17After everything she's done to it, it's still holding on
07:21Thank every power that existed
07:23That I was not the one
07:29Selene was genuinely kind
07:30When she heard what Seraphine had done to herself
07:32She packed a cart full of tonics and medicinal parcels
07:35And went to see her
07:36She wanted to try one more time to talk sense into her
07:38She had barely crossed the threshold
07:40When she smelled something wrong
07:41Seraphine was standing in the middle of the room
07:43And drinking in long, desperate darks
07:46Seraphine
07:47What is this?
07:49What are you drinking?
07:50It's a remedy
07:51It can turn what's inside me
07:53Change the snake to a dragon
07:56Seraphine
07:57There is no such drug in the world
07:59You will kill your child
08:01Good
08:02I'd rather it die than have to do it myself
08:05Seraphine
08:05Whatever you carry, it is still your child
08:07If it ever knew how you treated it, it would hate you
08:10Easy for you to say, Selene
08:11You didn't end up carrying a wretched little snake
08:13And don't pretend you don't know what's in your belly
08:14Everyone's whispering that you're carrying a true heir
08:16Try swapping what you have for what I have
08:18Then we'll see how saintly you are
08:20Since the physician's visit
08:21Rumors have spread through court
08:23That Selene might be carrying a true dragon heir
08:25But everyone who knew them understood
08:27Edric loved Selene truly
08:28Only Seraphine believed the child was the reason
08:38Bring both women into the palace and place them under careful watch
08:41Even surrounded by the dragon king's own people
08:44Seraphine found ways to punish the child inside her
08:47Selene watched and grieved and said nothing more
08:49She had stopped trying
08:50Seraphine stopped eating
08:52Her belly swelled enormously
08:53Her skin went dull and yellowish
08:55Aged a decade in months
08:57She stopped
08:57Then she came to Selene and confessed
08:59With tears in her eyes
09:00I believed I had been
09:02Under some kind of enchantment
09:05All of it
09:07I had been bewitched
09:08I was herself again now
09:10I intended to be a proper mother
09:12Whatever the child was
09:14I would raise it with love
09:16That is all I have ever wanted to hear from you
09:18Seraphine
09:19I have been reading the old histories
09:20Even a serpent-born child can ascend
09:22With training and time
09:24It is not hopeless
09:25Seraphine said and smiled back
09:27You are right sister
09:29I should have come to you sooner
09:31She stayed to ask questions about the pregnancy
09:33Selene answered everything with patience
09:35When Seraphine left
09:36Selene even pressed a package of restorative herbs into her hands
09:41That night she told Edric
09:44I think Seraphine has finally grown up
09:48Everyone said she had changed
09:50Seraphine has finally come to her senses
09:53She's a changed woman now
09:54The warmth
09:55The questions
09:56The tears
09:57It was a performance
09:57She was planning something
09:59A month later
10:01With Selene's birth nearing
10:03I need you to do something for me
10:06The girl slipped something into Selene's drink
10:09That put her under
10:14I heard Seraphine enter with several others
10:18Give her the forcing drage
10:20Once we've both delivered
10:22Swap the inference
10:23She moved to Selene's side
10:25And laid a hand on her belly
10:29Selene
10:30You always love to lecture me
10:33About how it doesn't matter what comes out
10:35Well
10:37Let's see how enlightened you are
10:39When you're the one holding the wretched thing
10:42She laughed softly to herself
10:43Pleased with the thought
10:45I understand it all now
10:46The kindness
10:47The visits
10:47The questions
10:48Learning which handmaids could be bought
10:50Panic spiked through me
10:51I kicked hard against the wound
10:53Selene didn't stir
10:54I felt the walls of Selene's body
10:55Begin to contract
10:56I kicked it again
10:57More desperate now
10:58Wake up
10:59Please wake up
11:00And then
11:01Impossible
11:05Selene's voice
11:06She was awake
11:07Shouting
11:08Calling for help
11:09Get away from me
11:10Within moments
11:11Voices flooded in from the hall
11:13Edric
11:13The dragon king
11:14The relief that moved through me
11:16Was so complete
11:19Make way
11:20She is in labour
11:22Light hit me from every direction at once
11:24I was born
11:25I was lifted and placed against Selene's chest
11:30I smelled her
11:31I had been smelling her for months from the inside
11:33And now
11:33Here it was from the outside
11:35Edric
11:36Look
11:37She's smiling already
11:39She's only just arrived
11:41And she's already smiling at us
11:42I was still looking around the room
11:44When I spotted Seraphine pushing through the crowd
11:49Selene noticed her too
11:53Seraphine
11:53Come and look
11:54She's beautiful
11:56Seraphine stepped forward
11:57Her brow was tight
11:58Then she looked at me
12:00Her gaze caught in something at my forehead
12:02She went completely white
12:03It's you
12:04She lunged forward and seized my arm
12:06It's you
12:09You
12:11How do you have that mark?
12:12What mark?
12:13Seraphine's grip was trembling
12:15There was a mark
12:16On her forehead
12:17Glowing
12:20She looked again
12:21The glow was gone
12:23I lay there
12:24Ordinary and unremarkable
12:26A small, dark snake child
12:28Blinking up at the torchlight
12:32Seraphine's face crumpled
12:36How can you be hers?
12:38Then what am I carrying?
12:40Who is inside me?
12:42Before anyone could answer
12:43A rush of water soaked the floor to eat
12:46Seraphine doubled over, shrieking
12:49She was a lady
12:55Compared to Selene's birth
12:57Seraphine's was a nightmare
12:59She labored for three days and three nights
13:01She screamed for all three
13:03The sound kept me from sleeping
13:05Thank every power it wasn't like this for us
13:08She told Edric
13:09Her voice still shaken
13:10I didn't suffer at all
13:11I have a name now
13:12Two lives
13:13And I finally had a name
13:14In my first life
13:15I had been called nothing
13:17Nothing kind anyway
13:18Seraphine had two names for me
13:20Little wretch
13:20And little whore
13:22This life
13:22Selene named me Wren
13:24Not dragon
13:24Not serpent
13:25Just Wren
13:27Whatever I was
13:29Only wanted you safe
13:30Edric came and pinched my cheek
13:32And declared me in the history of the dragon court
13:34The best behaved child
13:36Him
13:37Most newborns fuss and wail for days
13:39You only ate and slept
13:41I smiled up at them both
13:43Just as the warmth was settling in
13:45Someone ran to find me
13:47Seventh prince your highness
13:48The third princess concert has delivered
13:50Edric and Selene carried me over to sea
13:52The room was packed
13:53Seraphine's laughter rang out over everything
13:56The heavens have not forgotten me
13:58I knew it
13:59I always knew I could do this
14:03Hello my sweet girl
14:07Like a prize
14:08And pressed it into Aldric's arms
14:09Husband
14:10I didn't I tell you
14:12Aldric's face had gone soft
14:14In a way I had never seen
14:15He took the child
14:16And carried it straight to the dragon king
14:20The air is born
14:22The curse is broken
14:23The dragon king took it with great care
14:26Turned it over slowly
14:27Examined it from every angle
14:28Then his expression changed
14:32He said
14:33This dragon
14:34Why does it only have two claws?
14:37The room went quiet
14:40People looked closer
14:41It was true
14:42A dragon should have four
14:43This one had one
14:44Then someone else said quietly
14:46It hasn't opened its eyes
14:48It's been some time now
14:49It should have opened its eyes
14:50It doesn't look right
14:52It looks like it's fading
14:54You dare
14:55My dragon is perfectly well
14:57Don't you put that on my child
14:59But even as she said it
15:01The small golden dragon
15:02In the dragon king's arms
15:03Began to convulse
15:04Its mouth foamed white
15:06It shuddered once
15:07Its head fell to the side
15:09It was dead
15:09The physician pushed through
15:11And examined the child
15:12Your majesty
15:13The air was healthy at the start
15:14But the third princess concept
15:16Consumed something during the pregnancy
15:17I believe a harmful compound
15:19That damaged the child from the inside
15:20It held on as long as it could
15:22But it was never going to survive
15:24Aldric's face darkly grabbed Seraphim
15:27What did you take?
15:30What did you put into your body?
15:32What did you do to my son?
15:34Seraphim had gone grey
15:35I didn't
15:36I never
15:37I only
15:38Her eyes sharpened
15:40Then she saw Selene across the room
15:41It was her
15:43It was Selene
15:44She pointed
15:45She gave me those herbs
15:46She was jealous
15:47She knew what I was carrying
15:49And she poisoned me
15:50She poisoned my child
15:51It was the gaze of a man
15:53Who wanted someone to blame
15:54And had just been handed a target
15:56Aldric turned his gaze on Selene
16:00Seventh prince
16:00Your wife killed my son
16:03What do you intend to do about that?
16:05Selene was calm
16:06She waited a beat
16:07Then spoke
16:08Seraphim
16:09You say the herbs I gave you were poisoned
16:11But I ate from the same supply
16:13My child is right here perfectly well
16:16Can you explain that?
16:17Have you forgotten the potion you drank?
16:19You said it could turn snakes into dragons
16:22Everyone in that room knew about Seraphim's pregnancy
16:25Every foolish thing she had done had been witnessed and whispered about for months
16:30Selene's words shifted the room
16:32People murmured
16:32People remembered
16:33Seraphim sprung
16:35She insisted compound his arms
16:36She demanded someone fetch the formula to prove it
16:39The physician read it over
16:40This compound is dangerous
16:42It is almost certainly why the child had only two claws
16:45Whatever was inside her it did not deserve what it endured
16:48It is remarkable it survived as long as it did
16:51Seraphim heard this
16:52And the color drained entirely from her face
16:55You're saying
16:55You're saying I did this?
16:57I turned it into that?
16:59I had a true dragon all along and I did that to it myself?
17:03She stood there pulling at her own head
17:05Sinking under the weight of it
17:07Then all at once
17:08She looked up
17:09Then we try again
17:11She grabbed Aldrich's arm with both hands
17:13She said
17:14Husband
17:15We try again
17:16Her smile was wrong
17:18I did it once
17:19I can do it again
17:20I can another pregnancy
17:22Another heir
17:23Another heir
17:24I know I can give you a dragon
17:27Seraphim's story spread through the dragon court
17:29Like fire through dry grass
17:31She had delivered a true dragon heir
17:35And it had died in the dragon king's arms within minutes of birth
17:38Most people said it behind their hands and laughed
17:40Seraphim didn't care
17:42She shut herself in her chambers with Aldrich
17:44And got to work
17:45She was serpent born
17:46And serpent born women were extraordinarily fertile
17:49Within two months
17:50She was with child again
17:51This time she was careful
17:53Obsessively careful
17:54She ate well
17:55She rested
17:55She took every tonic and restorative the palace healers prescribed without argument
17:59She told everyone who would listen
18:01I had a feeling
18:02A certainty
18:03That this child was a dragon
18:05People were skeptical
18:07But they believed her more than they might have otherwise
18:09She had after all
18:10Conceived a true dragon voice
18:12That was more than anyone else in a hundred years could claim
18:15The dragon king sent attendants from the palace to watch over her
18:18Aldrich stayed close
18:19For the first time in their marriage
18:20He was faithful and present
18:22Everyone assumed this pregnancy would follow the same pattern as the first
18:26That when the time came
18:27The child would arrive and be a dragon
18:28Instead she carried it for three years
18:31Three years was unnatural by any measure
18:34It should have been a scandal
18:35But Seraphine had heard of a figure from old legend
18:38Whose mother had carried him for three years before he was born
18:41And he had become something close to divine
18:42So she put that story in circulation
18:45He told everyone
18:46This child
18:47Was no ordinary little dragon
18:50It was something rarer
18:52The court chose to believe her
18:56Those three years were very good to me
18:58Just as I'd expected
18:59Edric and Selene gave me everything
19:01They played with me
19:02Taught me
19:03Took me everywhere
19:04Even the dragon king had grown fond of me
19:06Despite me being only a snake born child
19:08On my third birthday
19:10He held a feast in my honor
19:11And placed around my neck
19:12The dragon seal pendant
19:14That only dragon born princesses were meant to wear
19:16He patted my head
19:17Little Ren
19:18Tell me
19:18What do you want most?
19:20Whatever you say
19:20Your grandfather will provide it
19:23I want the dragon king to live forever
19:27The room laughed
19:28Warm, genuine laughter
19:30Seraphine, standing at the edge of the crowd
19:32Looked like she had bitten into something rotten
19:35She muttered under her breath
19:36The old man has lost his senses
19:38Fustling over a little black snake
19:40That charm belongs in my child's neck
19:42Not hers
19:43The feast wound down
19:44The dragon king invited me to spend the night in the palace
19:47A nursemaid led me toward my rooms
19:49But the walk felt wrong
19:51The corridors were unfamiliar
19:52We turned into an empty courtyard with no torches lit
19:55And I saw Seraphine waiting in the dark
19:57I ran
19:58She caught me by the shoulder before I cleared the gate
20:00Rin
20:01Where are you going?
20:03I'm not going to hurt you
20:05Aunt Seraphina
20:06Did you want something?
20:07I have a birthday gift for you
20:08I made it myself
20:10Go on
20:11Eat it
20:12I looked at the cake
20:12I looked at her
20:13Every instinct I had said
20:15Do not
20:16I took it from her hand
20:17Raised it toward my mouth
20:18And threw it directly at her face
20:20Then I ran again
20:21The gate slammed shut before I reached it
20:23Seraphine caught me and wrapped one hand around my throat
20:25Her expression had dropped all pretense
20:29You little ingrate
20:30I brought you a gift and you wasted it
20:32Open your mouth
20:34I forced her
20:36I was three years old and she was a grown woman
20:39Someone help me!
20:40The third princess gonzon is trying to kill me!
20:44Seraphina
20:44If you kill me again
20:46I will ask the ancient to turn your child into a worm
20:49She stared down at me with an expression I had never seen on her face
20:53Something between fury and terror
20:55No!
20:55The gate burst open
20:56Selene stood in the frame
20:58Red
20:58I ran to her
20:59Mother!
21:00She tried to poison me!
21:02Edric and the Dragon King were right behind Selene
21:05Someone had noticed I was missing and raised the alarm
21:07They had gone from courtyard to courtyard looking for me
21:09The Dragon King looked...
21:10You were trying to harm Rint?
21:12Father
21:13Please don't listen to her
21:15I brought her a birthday gift
21:16She threw it at me and started screaming
21:19I don't know why she would say something like this
21:21Rint
21:22I know you're young
21:23But to accuse me of something so terrible
21:25What were you thinking?
21:27She had her attendants bring forward the gift box she had prepared
21:29Inside, a neat arrangement of small cakes
21:33Beautifully made
21:33Her attendants confirmed
21:34She had been in the kitchens all afternoon working on them
21:37She had done it in secret, they said
21:39Because Selene didn't like Wren eating sweets
21:41And she hadn't wanted Selene to confiscate them
21:45People started looking at me the way adults look at children who lie
21:48Serafine pressed her advantage
21:50Little Wern
21:51I know you were afraid I'd get you in trouble
21:53But you don't have to make things up
21:54Your aunt forgives you
21:56Just say sorry and we can forget it
21:59Children do invent things when they're frightened
22:01I had heard enough!
22:04She didn't bring me here for cake
22:06Lies! You're lying!
22:07She's been trying to get rid of me since before I was born
22:09Three years ago, she bribed one of Mother's handymaids and drugged Mother's drink
22:14She was going to use a forcing draft to deliver both of us early and switch us
22:17She only failed because Mother woke up in time
22:20It's a lie!
22:21Three years ago, I was carrying a true dragon heir
22:23Why would I swap anything?
22:25What could I possibly have gained?
22:27Because you weren't sure yet
22:29You thought Mother might be carrying the dragon and you might be carrying the snake
22:32So you wanted to switch us before anyone found out
22:35Serafine's face went into a very particular...
22:37Father, she is a three-year-old child making accusations about things she could not possibly have witnessed
22:42Exactly
22:44Everyone went still
22:45Selene spoke before the silence could stretch too long
22:48My daughter does not lie
22:49If you want to know whether this is true, ask the handymaid
22:53The handymaid was found
22:54The dragon king's people had ways of getting at the truth
22:57It didn't take long
22:59The testimony came back in writing
23:01Every detail confirmed
23:03Serafine had bribed her
23:04The draft had been administered
23:06Selene had woken before the swap could happen
23:08The dragon king read it
23:09Then he dropped the paper on the floor at Serafine's feet
23:12Serafine had gone white to the lips
23:14Well...
23:15She's lying!
23:15The testimony is a forgery!
23:17Selene put her up to this!
23:18She and this...
23:19You tried to kill my child
23:20You wanted to destroy her before she was born
23:22You have been trying to destroy her since
23:24And now you stand here and call on our bond as sisters
23:29She looked at Serafine directly for a long moment
23:31Did you think of that bond when you went after her?
23:34Selene and Edric pushed together for the dragon king to render punishment
23:37Sister!
23:38We are blood!
23:40Would you truly have me punish her over a snake?
23:43The moment you went after my child
23:45You made your choice about what our bond was worth
23:48The dragon king straightened
23:50He was about to speak
23:51Serafine dropped to the ground with a shriek
23:53My stomach!
23:55The baby!
23:56I think it's coming!
23:57Someone fetch the midwife!
23:58Now!
24:00Nothing in the dragon court could stop the midwife
24:02Not for punishment
24:03Not for justice
24:04Not for truth
24:05If a possible dragon air was on its way into the world
24:08The dragon king called for the midwife's community
24:10Half the court ran to primate
24:12The other half followed Serafine to her chambers to watch history happen
24:15This time birth was easy
24:16Not even half a day
24:18The bundle was brought out and placed in Serafine's arms
24:20The room went absolutely silent
24:22It was a small, soft, pale worm
24:26Barely moving
24:27A common earthworm wrapped in royal linen
24:29The dragon king's face did something complicated
24:32Aldric looked as though the floor had dropped out from under him
24:34Serafine didn't understand
24:35She was reaching for the bundle
24:37Her face still opening and expectant
24:39Let me see my little dragon
24:41She looked
24:43What is this?
24:44She whispered
24:44Where is my dragon?
24:46This isn't mine
24:47Someone has switched them
24:48Someone's switched my child
24:50This isn't...
24:51Aldric said
24:52His voice was flat and terrible
24:54Whose child is it then?
24:55Then, just as she had done the first time
24:57Serafine's gaze found me across the room
25:00You...
25:00You did this
25:01She said
25:01I know you did this
25:03I stepped back
25:04One small step
25:06Instinctive
25:06Nobody in the room was ready for what happened next
25:09Serafine moved fast
25:11She had a hand around my throat
25:12Before anyone reached her
25:13And she had a sword from the nearest guard's belt
25:15Before anyone knew she'd taken it
25:17She pressed the blade on my neck
25:18She had lost her hand around the time
25:20Her voice shook with it
25:22Tell me what you did
25:23I left you alone this life
25:26I left you alone and you still came after me
25:28What did you do to my child?
25:31Why won't you just let me have this?
25:33Nobody else mastered what she meant
25:34Selene went white
25:36Serafine
25:37Put the blade down
25:38Rink is three years old
25:40She hasn't done anything
25:41You don't understand
25:43Serafine's grip tightened
25:44She's done this to me before
25:46She ruined everything before
25:48And now she's done it again
25:49She won't stop until I have nothing
25:52She looked at me
25:53Her eyes were wild and wet
25:54Die
25:55She said
25:56Just die
25:57She just shamed into my eyes
25:59I heard Selene and Edric scream
26:01And then light
26:02A warmth so sudden and total
26:04It swallowed the pain whole
26:06My thoughts scattered
26:07And then pulled back together
26:09Sharp and clear
26:10I remembered the ancients
26:11After my first death
26:12I had stood before she
26:13She had offered me another chance
26:15And then as I was leaving
26:16She had said something else
26:18What had she said?
26:19I had almost forgotten
26:20She had told me
26:21You are a true dragon
26:24You are a true dragon
26:26You have always been one
26:28But your dragon blood was sealed at birth
26:30It is locked in your heart
26:31And the seal can only be broken one of two ways
26:34The first is to wait until you come of age
26:37The second is to break it open yourself
26:39Something vast
26:40It rose through the wound
26:43It filled my ribs
26:44My throat
26:45My skull
26:46I opened my mouth
26:47And what came out
26:48Was not a scream
26:49It was a dragon's roar
26:51It tore through the wound
26:52I clapped with thunder
26:54I felt my body
26:54Leaving the ground
26:55I felt myself expanding
26:57Into something enormous
26:58Something with wings
27:00And scales
27:01And weight
27:01And I circled the whole twice
27:03Enormous
27:04And gold
27:04And real
27:05And then I came back down
27:07When I returned to my small human shape
27:09The wound was gone
27:10The room stared at me
27:12Shifted
27:12Wern shifted
27:13She's a true dragon
27:15She's been a true dragon this whole time
27:17I knew she wasn't ordinary
27:19The dragon kin has an heir
27:21We have an heir
27:22The room erupted
27:24Seraphine stood
27:25Completely stiff in the middle of it
27:28Staring at me
27:30She said
27:31I was always one
27:33I told her
27:33I was one in my first life too
27:35There were two ways to unlock my blood
27:37The first was to reach adulthood
27:38The second was for my heart seal to be broken by force
27:41I looked at the sword she was still holding
27:43You never had any patience
27:44That's why you'll never be a dragon's mother
27:47Before Seraphine could raise the sword again
27:49It was over
27:50Several people moved at once
27:51She died there in the hall
27:53The small worm she had carried for three years
27:55Did not outlive her for long
27:57Within a few years
27:58It was gone too
27:59Because I had revealed my true form
28:01The dragon king honoured the oath he had made before all the court
28:04The prince whose bloodline produced a true dragon heir
28:07Would take the throne
28:08On the day Edric was crowned
28:10I told them everything
28:11The first life
28:12The second
28:12All of it
28:13I expected to be scolded for keeping it secret
28:16Instead
28:16They both wept
28:18Were
28:18She said
28:19We should be thanking you
28:20You chose us
28:21Out of everyone you could have gone to
28:24You chose us
28:25That is not something we will ever take lightly
28:27Dragon or snake or anything in between
28:30You were always exactly who we wanted
28:32Two lives
28:33A lot of dying
28:34A lot of cruelty to wade through
28:36Before I got here
28:37But I got here
28:38I got here
28:39I got here
28:39I got here
28:39I got here
28:39I got here
28:39I got here
28:39I got here
