00:06Well, well, if it isn't the prettiest little thing in this place, why don't we enjoy ourselves
00:12tonight? Just the three of us. Look at that attitude, eh? Lift your head up and give us
00:17a little show. It's them. They're coming to take us away. Run!
00:28Please step aside, sir. Not a bad looker. Take him away. The palace needs a lowly cur to
00:35swab latrines.
00:48Even a tavern maid is not spared. Such tyranny will leave the people with no
00:53way to survive. My late sovereign, the true heir to the throne, when will they emerge from
00:57the shadows?
01:06Fetch the boards and line them up up in front of the carriage.
01:13Isabella, it is nice to see you again.
01:15Your Highness, it has been a long time. You are as handsome as ever.
01:21All right, help the young lady up. Let us go and see your father. Leaving her servant
01:25in the cold like this, Isabella hasn't changed a bit.
01:29Prince, she's nothing but a filthy wench dragged from a tavern. Why call her my lady?
01:35Wipe my boots, or you'll freeze to death in the snow tonight.
01:40Enough. Don't waste my time. Let's move.
01:47Fine. If the prince insists, I will spare you. For now.
01:53If Isabella is wed to this prince, our mission will become far more difficult to achieve.
02:00I fear we are running out of time.
02:04Welcome, Caspian. Glad you're here to talk about the marriage. This is damn good news.
02:09Grub it clean.
02:12Yes.
02:14Your Majesty.
02:17Your Majesty, you are a noble and elegant soul. Do not lower yourself to deal with the likes of her.
02:23Your Majesty, here are the latest reports from the front lines.
02:26Leave it for now. I have no time for such insignificance.
02:32He truly has no concern for the affairs of state.
02:37Father, this slave is like a mute.
02:40She wouldn't even cry out if you whipped her right now.
02:43Ha! Let this maid dance in her birthday shoot.
02:47For our amusement.
02:51Your Majesty, let us return to the matter of the Alliance.
02:54Now that we're joining houses, you'd better make sure my girl Isabella stays happy.
02:59Understand?
03:01Nothing has been officially confirmed yet. My parents still have their reservations.
03:07Your Highness, I am so beautiful and elegant. What is there to hesitate about?
03:12There is something different about this girl.
03:18For forgive me, Princess. I still wish to give it further thought.
03:27Will this life ever end?
03:31I have been searching for you ever since that queen.
03:36Princess.
03:42This throne's got a new name starting today.
03:46Cut them down!
03:51Bavard, you despicable, scheming traitor.
03:56One day, the one with the true royal bloodline will return.
03:59The royal bloodline has been completely wiped out by my hand.
04:03Now you shall join them.
04:05Count Morian.
04:06Take it.
04:07Go.
04:09Kill them all!
04:11Leave not one royal alive!
04:13Live.
04:15Live.
04:16You must.
04:17Live.
04:18Live.
04:31I...
04:32I submit.
04:34This old servant begs to surrender.
04:38A wise man submits to the tide.
04:42You're with me now, old man.
04:51Why are these weird thoughts popping into my head again?
04:55You bitch, why are you dazing off?
04:58Keep scrubbing!
05:00If it's not spotless, you're sleeping outside tonight.
05:04There's something about that girl.
05:06Something unusual.
05:12Maybe I'm just exhausted lately.
05:21When can I finally go home?
05:24Your Majesty, allow this old servant to pour you some wine.
05:28Traitor, your time has run out.
05:36This...
05:38This...
05:38This was the king.
05:40Yes.
06:03But everyone said it was a peaceful succession 20 years ago.
06:07They said the throne was given, not taken.
06:14Child, I only pray that you make it out alive.
06:20That child, whatever happened to her, where is she now?
06:29This little brat nearly scared me to death.
06:32What are you doing standing around?
06:34Get back to work!
06:37No, your highness, please.
06:40That's enough.
06:42You should show a little more grace towards your servants.
06:45The magic that pulsed from the portrait.
06:48I couldn't have been mistaken.
06:51I need to find out what's really going on.
06:57Now, go prune those branches.
07:00And I said, no gloves.
07:03Watch your filthy hands.
07:05These are the royal blossoms.
07:07Far too precious for a commoner like you to even touch.
07:11There is something about this girl's aura.
07:14It commands attention.
07:27It is hard to ask the skies will be red.
07:30The true air shall rise from the shadows of destiny.
07:34May the late king be praised.
07:37Twenty long years.
07:38I have finally lived to see this day.
07:42So, this is a true miracle.
07:46Impossible!
07:47This is impossible!
07:48Who are you?
07:49You're a witch!
07:50You must be a witch!
07:53Seize this witch at once!
07:55Throw her into the darkest dungeon!
07:59I can feel it.
08:01A power.
08:02A power surging from within my very soul.
08:07Summon the white wizard mage at once.
08:13Burn this wretched witch!
08:15She dares to display her foul sorcery!
08:18Stop!
08:19Isabella!
08:20You must restrain yourself in a place like this!
08:23Your Highness!
08:24I can't believe you came here in person for a mere maid!
08:28Our nation's diplomatic mission arrives in three days.
08:32Do not cause a scene at such a critical moment.
08:49That is...
08:50the complete royal crest.
08:53Stop!
08:54Such an ill-own-of-act must not be done at a time like this!
08:58You old fool!
08:59Are you staging a rebellion?
09:02Forgive me, Your Highness,
09:03but we are at a critical juncture for the Royal Alliance.
09:06We simply cannot afford a bloodbath right now.
09:11She truly is.
09:13Extraordinary.
09:13She has disturbed the Great Tree!
09:15This is nothing but sacramage and foul witchcraft!
09:19No.
09:20It simply responded to me.
09:22It only responds to the royal bloodline!
09:25How could a wretched like you possibly trigger a reaction?
09:31Enough.
09:33Be still now, Isabella.
09:35Throw this wend to the anti-magic dungeon!
09:49The final negotiations for the Royal Union are imminent.
09:52Pray, Princess, do not let your temper get the better of you.
10:01I will kill that witch no matter what.
10:09The Great Tree has answered my call.
10:23Do not be afraid, little one.
10:26I am here to help you.
10:39This is the mark that only those of royal blood possesses.
10:43Sautran, what is that supposed to mean?
10:46Why would anyone of royal blood end up as a lowe maid?
10:50I thought the royal line was severed forever.
10:53I never imagined an heir had survived.
10:56I saw it.
10:58Twenty years ago, Board slaughtered the entire royal family.
11:03Elena.
11:04The royal blood flowing through your veins allows you to see into the past.
11:10What do we do now?
11:12We must get her to the library and keep her under protection for now.
11:21Your Majesty, I shall take the girl to the library.
11:25Her condition requires study and secure supervision.
11:29She is but a lowly servant.
11:31Does a mere maid truly require the attention of the white wizard?
11:36Great King, confining this girl, who has caused such a stir to the library, is a wise choice.
11:43Deal with this nonsense yourselves.
11:45Hunting is far more important to me right now.
11:51Let's go, Elena.
11:53I'm taking you somewhere safe.
12:02Thank you, Prince, for bringing me here.
12:05You are a strong, brave girl, Elena.
12:08You don't deserve this suffering.
12:11I am about to cast the spell to confirm and awaken her royal bloodline.
12:17The stars never lie, even when history is rewritten by blood.
12:36It was me.
12:37That baby.
12:38It was me.
12:40Fate smiled upon you.
12:41You were rescued and adopted by a family living downstream.
12:45Elena.
12:46You are the true and rightful sovereign of this realm.
12:50I do not crave the throne.
12:52I only wish for our people to live in peace, free from oppression.
12:57You are far too kind.
13:00I swear I will help you make that dream a reality.
13:08The priority now is to keep you safe.
13:11Thank you, Your Highness.
13:12But once Isabella and her father learn the truth, they will stop at nothing to kill me.
13:19Your Highness, let's summon the lords and envoys.
13:22Declaring the truth publicly is the only way to shield her.
13:25I can use the marriage proposal as a pretext to gather them all.
13:31I will fulfill my duty.
13:34You are the true princess.
13:36Your destiny is to reclaim the throne.
13:40Understood.
13:41Thank you, Prince Kasper.
13:44The forces of evil have begun their march towards destruction.
13:49Mirror, mirror.
13:50Mirror, who is the most noble woman in all the world?
13:58It is Elena now, my master.
14:02Shut up!
14:03How could she possibly be more noble than me?
14:14Summon your beast.
14:16I want that maid dead.
14:17The remnants of that fallen family.
14:21It's high time they were cleared out.
14:33Evil is here.
14:38Don't you touch her!
14:44Oh no!
14:45It's a forbidden beast from the abyss!
14:47I need time to cast the spell!
14:53Filthy creature.
14:55Go back to the abyss!
15:09Elayna.
15:11The power within you is truly immense.
15:14What matters more is that you stood in front of me.
15:17That is far more powerful than any magic.
15:21All right, you two.
15:22We're about to go head to head with the forces of evil.
15:25Father!
15:27That maid!
15:27She's a monster!
15:29A literal monster!
15:30Easy now, sweetheart.
15:32A monster?
15:33In the middle of the day?
15:34You must be seeing things.
15:36Mortar's beast.
15:37She turned it to ash in a single instant.
15:39She isn't even a sorceress.
15:42So how can she harbor such immense power?
15:45No, we cannot let her return to her duties.
15:49Confine her to the library
15:50and ensure the doors are under heavy guard.
15:53Just locking her up?
15:55Caspian is going to see her every single day.
15:57She is not only getting close to the prince,
16:00but she will also seize your father's throne
16:04because she likely carries the royal bloodline herself.
16:08What do you mean by that?
16:10Silence!
16:10Do not spread such lies.
16:12Look at this empire of ours.
16:15I command the most elite army in all the land.
16:19She's just a lowly servant.
16:21What ripples could she possibly stir up?
16:24Very well.
16:26Your majesty, I have delivered my warning.
16:29You've grown old, Mortis.
16:31In this era, power exists only at the tip of a sword.
16:34Bloodlines are irrelevant.
16:36Um, exactly.
16:38She is a common wretch and she will die a common wretch.
16:42Let her rot in that library.
16:44This silence.
16:46How much longer can it last?
16:49Elena, very soon.
16:51Everyone will be shaken to their core.
16:54Your Highness,
16:55are you quite certain you wish to wait until the banquet?
16:58Yes.
16:59Proceed as planned.
17:01There are those who know exactly what the mark on her body signifies.
17:09I am the mightiest king to ever live.
17:18Your Highness,
17:20you've finally showed yourself.
17:23When shall we seal our liar alliance in marriage?
17:28I am busy with matters of the crown.
17:31Step aside, Isabella.
17:34Is our marriage not a state affair?
17:36My father is fast losing his patience.
17:43About that.
17:44I believe the alliance needs to be delayed.
17:47Delayed?
17:49What did you say?
17:50There are
17:52internal stability issues.
17:54It's not the right time.
17:56Not the right time?
17:57This is a matter of nations!
17:58You're courting disaster for your kingdom!
18:02Are you threatening me, Isabella?
18:05No.
18:08I just really want to settle this.
18:10After all, it's a momentous matter for both our kingdoms.
18:13Perhaps
18:13you have a point.
18:15But I need proof of your family's capability.
18:19What kind of proof?
18:22The Great Autumn Banquet is in one days.
18:25Old nobles,
18:26foreign emboys,
18:27they will all be there.
18:29If your family can host this banquet perfectly
18:31and win their favor,
18:32we will proceed with the marriage immediately.
18:35Perfectly?
18:36Caspian,
18:37my family is the epitome of perfection.
18:40You'll see.
18:42I will start the preparations now.
18:44Don't go back on your word.
18:54It seems Elena's true identity
18:56is about to be revealed to the world.
18:59Let them enjoy their final days of glory
19:02while they still can.
19:17The Prince is here.
19:19Look how he shines.
19:24That?
19:26That filthy maid?
19:38Can't even hold a damn thing.
19:40What a peasant.
19:45Does a stolen crown get heavy?
19:57That's the lost secret crest of the royal family.
20:01We will uphold the true return of blood
20:03down with the fake royal families.
20:04Isabella is just a fake princess.
20:06We must support the true royal bloodline.
20:08The play is over, Isabella.
20:11Your stolen crown is slipping.
20:20No. No.
20:22It's magic.
20:23It's a trick.
20:26Behold the true queen of the empire.
20:29Thank you, Prince Kasperis,
20:31for walking me into the light.
20:34Everything your father has done
20:36will be repaid today.
20:41Your majesty,
20:43something is terribly wrong.
20:55Since a witch has beguiled the crowds,
20:58I have no choice but to ask you all
21:00to remain here for now.
21:02But I believe
21:05only the dead
21:06can truly keep a secret.
21:09Your majesty,
21:10this is an open defiance
21:12of the true bloodline.
21:13As long as you all perish here,
21:15no one will ever know.
21:17Especially this woman
21:18of fallen blood.
21:20She must be silenced.
21:22Archers, ready!
21:23Leave no one alive!
21:25You despicable traitor.
21:27I shall punish you
21:28in the name of the late king.
21:31Luke! Luke!
21:33Luke!
21:33Luke!
21:36Luke!
21:38Luke!
21:39Luke!
21:39Luke!
21:40Luke!
21:41Luke!
21:43What kind of power is this?
21:48You wretched coward.
21:50This is the true power
21:52of the royal bloodline awakened.
21:58You shameless crownedle.
22:02Bowered,
22:03your life ends here.
22:05No.
22:07This can't be.
22:09Stop!
22:1220 years.
22:14My efforts were not in vain.
22:19Ha ha ha!
22:21Even this power
22:22is not enough
22:23to break me!
22:27None of you
22:28will leave
22:29this place alive.
22:33Mortas,
22:34banish them
22:34to the void
22:35of other worlds.
22:36It shall be done,
22:39your majesty.
22:40Release the forbidden curse.
22:42Kill them all!
22:43Now!
22:44Bowered!
22:45How dare you
22:46defile this royal sanctuary
22:48with your foul sorcery!
22:49You shameless usurper!
22:51Yeah!
22:55My strength,
22:57it's fading.
23:02Elena!
23:03Hold on!
23:10It's a dark curse!
23:12Run for your life!
23:14Why stay, Kaspern?
23:16You could save yourself.
23:19Because
23:21I love you.
23:26I love you too.
23:28Let us face
23:29the end together.
23:31Ha ha ha ha ha!
23:33Die!
23:34I will forever be
23:35the one true ruler
23:36of this kingdom!
23:46Caspian, my love.
23:48This is the last
23:49of my power.
23:51You must live on.
23:53No, Elena.
23:55We promise
23:56to face this together.
24:10I come here
24:11for the light.
24:14The white wizard.
24:17Darkness be gone
24:18from this holy ground.
24:20Solon has returned.
24:24No!
24:26This power!
24:32My little ones,
24:33forgive me
24:34for being late.
24:35Old man,
24:36we were almost
24:37martitized for love
24:38back there.
24:39My dear prince,
24:41show some respect
24:42for the wizard.
24:43Ha ha ha ha!
24:44My lady,
24:46the royal guard
24:47pledges its loyalty
24:48to you.
24:48Your word is our law.
24:50Throw Isabella,
24:51Bazzard,
24:52and their entire kin
24:53into the dungeons.
24:54The filth of the usurters
24:56must be cleansed.
24:57You shall stand trial.
25:00You wicked woman!
25:02You shall now face
25:04the judgmentment
25:05of the new queen!
25:06No!
25:07I am the princess!
25:09Caspian, save me!
25:10I believe this is farewell,
25:13Isabella.
25:16For the queen!
25:18Long live Elena!
25:21This...
25:21This is not how it ends.
25:24My dear prince,
25:25I am finally home.
25:28Truly home.
25:30The empire is whole again.
25:37A new dawn, Elena.
25:45I am still not quite used
25:47to these new clothes.
25:50Your majesty,
25:52your coronation ceremony
25:53is about to begin.
25:59That should have been
26:01my glory.
26:01to the queen.
26:10Richard!
26:30I shall lead my people into a life of peace and prosperity.
26:34My time in this mortal realm is over. I shall return to the clouds and watch your kingdom flourish.
26:43Now this nation steps into an age of peace and prosperity.
26:50The new dynasty rises and the people live in peace and stability.
26:56I have not failed your father nor this nation. You are home at last.
27:10I love you, Elena.
27:13We shall build a world without shadows.
27:34I love you, Elena.
27:37I love you, Elena.
27:39I love you, Elena.
