Short filmTranscript
00:00:03Oh no, they're on us! Warriors, do not let the Orcs cross our borders! Turn back and fight!
00:00:19Gods, help me! I was a fool! I should have listened to Hera! I should never have led the campaign!
00:00:25Never set foot in the Orc Empire!
00:00:35Pooh bugs!
00:00:50Hera...
00:00:52Get the king out of here! I'll hold them off!
00:01:11The gods are punishing me.
00:01:13Hera, I'm sorry. I didn't heed your warning. Blinded by pride, I sought a name that would outlive me, and
00:01:20nearly cast the kingdom's border into ruin.
00:01:22Your Majesty, just save your strength. You need to stay alive.
00:01:28My time's over. Moses is too young, too reckless. He can't carry this kingdom alone.
00:01:34Your Majesty...
00:01:35Then hear my final command. Guide him. Protect him. Don't let Cade fall.
00:01:40Moses. Hera is no ordinary woman. The gods chose her. As long as she stands with Kay, this kingdom will
00:01:46never fall. Listen to her. You're bound together by your engagement. Rule this land side by side.
00:01:52Father, I swear it. Father, I swear it. I swear on all the gods. I'll trust her, and listen to
00:01:59her. I'll become the king this kingdom needs.
00:02:02The gods' power isn't endless. But for Moses, for Cade, I'll give everything I have.
00:02:09Good. Good.
00:02:14Father! Father!
00:02:17Long live the king!
00:02:22Rise.
00:02:23Moses ascended the throne smoothly, while Hera took charge of the royal court as regent. Under her rule, the kingdom
00:02:29of Cade grew stronger with each passing day. But endless days and sleepless nights reopened Hera's old wounds, and slowly
00:02:37drained the gods' power within her.
00:02:40Your Majesty! Urgent news from the border! The Orc Empire has invaded! We're under attack!
00:02:47Those beasts dare invade Cade? Who will drive them back for me?
00:02:52I'll lead the army, drown the border in their blood, and bring peace back to Cade.
00:03:01Hera. I've seen everything you've done this past year. The people worship you. When you return victorious, I'll honor our
00:03:08engagement.
00:03:08I'll marry you with the grandest ceremony this kingdom has ever seen.
00:03:12My king, I won't fail you.
00:03:19Poor humans! You dare stand in the way of the Orc Empire? Today every last one of you die!
00:03:33The Scepter of Light! You're carrying the relic!
00:03:39Ha ha ha ha ha ha! So your godly power has limits after all.
00:03:44Charge! Kill this bitch! Kill humanity's last godsworn!
00:03:49Crush the woman-guarded court into utter despair!
00:03:54Pull back!
00:04:06In the gods' name, Godfall Ashgrave!
00:04:13You witch-rust woman! We'll return! And when we do, how will you alone stand against my million-strong tide
00:04:21of beasts?
00:04:33Commander!
00:04:34Dear god! You're gravely wounded! I'll get a healer right now. Just hang on!
00:04:41I'm fine. At least the enemy's gone.
00:04:47Hera's a monster. She nearly crushed the Orc Empire by herself.
00:04:51Of course. Now the king must fulfill his promise and marry her.
00:04:54This wedding will go down in Cady's history.
00:05:06Your Majesty.
00:05:08Hera.
00:05:15Hera! Do you know your crime?
00:05:21Your Majesty. What guilt do I have?
00:05:27You failed in war.
00:05:29And you still dare question me?
00:05:31One border war dragged on for three whole years.
00:05:34You had the power of the gods, yet countless Cady'd soldiers still died.
00:05:38Our people worked themselves to the bone supplying your war, food and weapons.
00:05:42You nearly bled this kingdom dry and you still claim you're innocent?
00:05:46Your Majesty. That was a million beast horde. Even a god's one has limits.
00:05:50He's right. Without Hera holding the border, Cade would have fallen already.
00:05:54Nonsense. She's the god sworn. Someone with her power should have ended the war long ago.
00:05:59The only reason it dragged on is because she wanted it to.
00:06:02She used the enemy to weaken the kingdom and weaken the king's authority.
00:06:06What exactly were you plotting?
00:06:08Everything I did was for Cade. For the soldiers. For the people.
00:06:12I nearly gave my life for this victory.
00:06:14Enough! Shut your mouth!
00:06:15As of today, you are stripped of your position as regent.
00:06:18Irene will take your place.
00:06:20She understands strategy and politics far better than you to guide the kingdom.
00:06:23Irene has never led an army. She knows nothing about war or governance.
00:06:27Handing her this kingdom is digging Cade's grain with your own hands.
00:06:30How dare you?
00:06:32You dare defy the king?
00:06:34Kneel!
00:06:38Your majesty, please reconsider her.
00:06:40Hera slid blood for this kingdom. You can't treat her like this.
00:06:44Treasonous fool. You dare oppose the king's command?
00:06:47Guards, drag him out and execute him immediately.
00:06:50I promised King Taylor I would give Moses 100 chances.
00:06:54Now there are only two left.
00:06:57When they're gone, so am I.
00:07:02As you command.
00:07:04Hera.
00:07:06I made this for you myself.
00:07:08It carries my heart with it.
00:07:10In this life, I'll only ever love you.
00:07:12As long as I can stay by your side, I'd give up everything.
00:07:16I'll follow you, protect you, love you forever.
00:07:19Without you, this crown means nothing to me.
00:07:22You're my only light.
00:07:23My only love.
00:07:25Let me place this on you.
00:07:27Yes.
00:07:28My king.
00:07:29I'd give everything for you, too.
00:07:33This world only worships winners.
00:07:35Nobody pities foolish heroes who throw their lives away.
00:07:40You gambled everything on the battlefield, but the real war is fought on the throne.
00:07:44And you already lost.
00:07:46I burned through my divine power to protect this kingdom.
00:07:50My wounds reopen every night.
00:07:52I cough blood in silence.
00:07:55Yet he never noticed.
00:07:56Never cared.
00:07:58That coldness hurts more than any blade ever could.
00:08:07Commander, we fought through hell to save this kingdom.
00:08:11And this is how they repay you?
00:08:13Those snakes stole your power.
00:08:19Power is just dust.
00:08:21It never mattered to me.
00:08:22Commander, the kings betrayed everyone.
00:08:25You gave everything to Cade, and this is what you got in return?
00:08:28To hell with that king!
00:08:30Commander, let's rebel.
00:08:32Lead us back into the palace and take back what's yours.
00:08:36Enough!
00:08:39Commander, we don't care about power or glory.
00:08:42We just want to protect Cade.
00:08:44To protect the people under under God's blessing.
00:08:47Commander, the king's blind.
00:08:48And the court's full of vipers.
00:08:51A kingdom like this has already been abandoned by the gods.
00:08:54That's enough.
00:08:55Get up.
00:08:55The late king raised me from nothing and entrusted this kingdom to me.
00:09:00Before he died, he placed Cade and Moses in my hands.
00:09:04I swore on the gods that I would never betray this kingdom.
00:09:07Never rebel.
00:09:09Commander, but the king...
00:09:10Enough!
00:09:11Never speak of this again!
00:09:15Commander, the queen mother summons you.
00:09:17Immediately.
00:09:26Your grace.
00:09:27Hera, the gods have seen every injustice done to you.
00:09:30You gave your life for Cade, yet you end up here all because Moses is young and stupid.
00:09:35I've already reprimanded him, and he's praying for forgiveness.
00:09:38Please don't worry about me, your majesty.
00:09:40The king needed to establish authority after taking the throne.
00:09:44Everything I did was my duty.
00:09:45I hold no resentment.
00:09:48Moses is grown now, and the kingdom is stable.
00:09:52It's time to honor the engagement the late king arranged.
00:09:55Marriage should be the king's decision.
00:09:58I wouldn't dare decide for him.
00:10:00The late king swore this oath before the gods.
00:10:02It cannot be changed.
00:10:04If that is the will of the queen mother and the late king, then I will obey.
00:10:08Hera, you are the pillar of Cade.
00:10:10This kingdom owes you.
00:10:11Only with you beside Moses can Cade remain under the gods' protection.
00:10:18Commander, if this marriage makes you unhappy, I can speak to my brother.
00:10:22You don't have to force yourself.
00:10:23I've known the king almost my whole life.
00:10:25And this marriage was the late king's final wish.
00:10:42Commander, if you're angry, take it out on me.
00:10:45Even if I need to die, I will play with you.
00:10:52Hera!
00:10:53You dared to hit Irene!
00:10:54I swear by the gods.
00:10:57I never touched her.
00:10:58I would never hurt her.
00:11:00I saw it with my own eyes.
00:11:01And you still dare lie before the gods?
00:11:04Please calm down, your majesty.
00:11:06Don't blame the commander.
00:11:08It's my fault for offended her.
00:11:10I deserve punishment.
00:11:11If my suffering eases her anger, then I'll gladly accept it.
00:11:17Hera, I order you to apologize to Irene right now.
00:11:20I did nothing wrong.
00:11:22Why should I apologize?
00:11:23Dare you disobey me?
00:11:25Guards, drag her away and punish her!
00:11:31Traitor!
00:11:44Hera!
00:11:45That was incredible!
00:11:47Teach me!
00:11:47Come here.
00:11:48I'll show you.
00:11:50Calm your mind.
00:11:52Keep your arms steady.
00:11:53Let your eyes follow the arrow.
00:11:55That's the path the gods guide you towards.
00:12:01Hera, you're the one the gods sent to guide me.
00:12:04When the war ends, I'll marry you before the entire kingdom.
00:12:07I'll stay by your side forever and make you the happiest woman in Cade.
00:12:17Brother, stop!
00:12:18She's the pillar of this kingdom.
00:12:20You can't treat her like this.
00:12:23Cain!
00:12:24You dare defy me too?
00:12:26You want punishment as well?
00:12:28Hera spent her whole life fighting for Cade.
00:12:30She drove back the orcs and protected this kingdom.
00:12:33She's blessed by the gods.
00:12:34How can you treat her this way?
00:12:35And I saw everything clearly.
00:12:37It was Rean.
00:12:37She hit herself to frame the commander.
00:12:41You've been blinded by the devil.
00:12:43Guards!
00:12:44Escort Prince Cain back to his chambers.
00:12:46He is confined till further notice.
00:12:52Hera, you've shown complete disrespect to the crown, the royal family, and even the gods.
00:12:57Your crimes deserve death.
00:12:59From this day forward, all your titles are stripped.
00:13:01Your command over the armies is revoked, and the sacred crim given to you by the late king will be
00:13:06taken back immediately.
00:13:15As you command.
00:13:17One hundred chances.
00:13:19And now, the very last one is gone too.
00:13:28Guards, take Irene to be treated.
00:13:33Moses!
00:13:35That crest was bestowed by the late king in the gods' name.
00:13:40It represents honor and faith.
00:13:42Taking it back is an insult to the gods themselves.
00:13:45Don't worry, mother.
00:13:47I know exactly what I'm doing.
00:13:49Your wedding is near, yet you humiliated her before everyone.
00:13:53You stripped her power and took her crest.
00:13:55How will you face her afterward?
00:13:57Right now, the people of Cade only know Hera.
00:14:01Not me.
00:14:02If I don't crush her influence before the wedding, this kingdom will belong to her instead of me.
00:14:10Then make them know you.
00:14:13It's fine, mother.
00:14:15She's like the rose with thorns.
00:14:17Only pulling every thorn out makes her truly submit.
00:14:20Only then can she become my loyal wife.
00:14:23Aren't you afraid driving Hera away will bring divine punishment?
00:14:27Don't worry.
00:14:28She's obeyed me for years.
00:14:29The gods bound us together.
00:14:30And besides, I don't want a legendary commander feared across the world.
00:14:35I just want a woman who belongs only to me.
00:14:37You always were a stubborn boy.
00:14:39Besides, after her last campaign, her body's already broken.
00:14:41Taking away her command is for her own good.
00:14:43She needs rest.
00:14:44You're grown now.
00:14:46Just remember, control your decisions anymore.
00:14:49Don't destroy what you and Hera once had.
00:14:52That bond was blessed by the gods.
00:15:01Your Majesty, Hera requests an audience.
00:15:06Let her in.
00:15:13The gods have blessed you, Your Majesty.
00:15:16Your dedication for ruling lately reminds me of the late king.
00:15:20I'm glad to see it.
00:15:23Hera, you've spent years fighting for this kingdom.
00:15:26Your wounds are severe.
00:15:27Now that you've stepped down as commander,
00:15:30just focus on healing and prepare for our wedding.
00:15:33Before I leave the palace,
00:15:35this is the final document I need your approval on.
00:15:41Wonderful news, Your Majesty!
00:15:43The Orc Empire has sent envoys!
00:15:44They want peace talks!
00:15:47Guards!
00:15:48Quickly, get Irene treated!
00:15:49Approved.
00:15:50You may leave now.
00:15:52Hera, I know you've suffered lately.
00:15:54We'll talk everything through after the wedding, okay?
00:16:00Your Majesty.
00:16:02There's no after this anymore.
00:16:05There's no after this anymore.
00:16:21Hera!
00:16:22Are you hurt?
00:16:25I'm fine.
00:16:26It's nothing.
00:16:28No, that's not nothing.
00:16:30To me,
00:16:31you matter more than the throne,
00:16:33more than this kingdom,
00:16:34more than anything in this world.
00:16:39From this day on,
00:16:41we are neither ruler and subject,
00:16:44nor husband and wife.
00:16:50Hera!
00:16:52Come home safe.
00:16:53I'll marry you with the grandest ceremony in the kingdom.
00:16:58Hera!
00:17:00Do you plead guilty to your sin?
00:17:05Moses.
00:17:06Hera is no ordinary woman.
00:17:08The gods chose her.
00:17:10I swear on all the gods,
00:17:11I'll trust her and listen to her.
00:17:13I'll become the king this kingdom needs.
00:17:22This world is vast enough
00:17:23that we'll never see each other again.
00:17:32May the gods bless them.
00:17:35The king is finally marrying Commander Hera.
00:17:38What a glorious moment for Cade!
00:17:40I heard she lost her title,
00:17:42her army,
00:17:43even her sacred Christ.
00:17:44Why would they suddenly marry now?
00:17:47You don't understand.
00:17:48The king just wants her to put down her sword
00:17:50and live peacefully beside him.
00:17:51It's out of love.
00:17:52I see.
00:17:53Then we misunderstood his majesty.
00:18:03Your majesty,
00:18:05we've arrived at Hera's estate.
00:18:07What nerve!
00:18:09The king himself arrives!
00:18:11Dare you not come greet him?
00:18:13This is an insult to the crown!
00:18:15Don't blame her.
00:18:16She's been hurt lately.
00:18:18I'll speak to her myself.
00:18:21What's wrong?
00:18:22Where's Hera?
00:18:25Well...
00:18:25Go find her now!
00:18:37Stop!
00:18:44Your majesty!
00:18:46Tell me where Hera is.
00:18:48Answer honestly.
00:18:50Your majesty!
00:18:52Lady Hera left the capital the day
00:18:54she surrendered the sacred crest.
00:18:56I have no idea where she went either!
00:19:02What?!
00:19:02No!
00:19:03That's impossible!
00:19:04You're lying!
00:19:05Hera swore to my father she'd tech me,
00:19:07protect Cade!
00:19:07She swore before the gods!
00:19:08She would never leave me!
00:19:09Your majesty,
00:19:10I swear by the gods,
00:19:11but dare perceive you!
00:19:13Insolence!
00:19:14How dare you speak such nonsense
00:19:15before his majesty!
00:19:17Hera,
00:19:17now that you're gone,
00:19:19your kingdom and your man
00:19:20are all mine!
00:19:22Your majesty,
00:19:23I swear by the gods,
00:19:25Lady Hera truly left the capital!
00:19:27Before she left,
00:19:28she ordered me to throw away
00:19:30all the old belongings in the estate!
00:19:32Hera,
00:19:32these night bracelets
00:19:33were offered by the Lord
00:19:34of the Eastern Territories.
00:19:35I saved them especially for you.
00:19:37Wear them,
00:19:38like I'm always by your side,
00:19:39protecting me.
00:19:40I love them.
00:19:41I'll treasure them forever.
00:19:44Old belongings.
00:19:45Could she mean
00:19:46all the things I gave her?
00:19:49Where are they?
00:19:51Oh,
00:19:52over there!
00:19:53Half of them have already burned!
00:20:00Those were my gifts to her.
00:20:11Hera,
00:20:12Hera,
00:20:12This is our vow parchment.
00:20:14It says,
00:20:15I'll love Hera forever
00:20:16and we'll never be apart.
00:20:18Yes.
00:20:18We'll be together forever,
00:20:20never apart.
00:20:26When you're away at war,
00:20:27if you miss me,
00:20:28look at this painting.
00:20:31Whenever I miss you,
00:20:33I'll keep looking at it.
00:20:36Guards!
00:20:37This man destroyed royal property!
00:20:39Execute him immediately!
00:20:40Guards!
00:20:41This man destroyed royal property!
00:20:43Execute him immediately!
00:20:45Mercy,
00:20:45Your Majesty!
00:20:46I swear by the gods!
00:20:48I didn't know those belonged
00:20:49to the royal family!
00:20:50Please spare me!
00:20:52You can't do this!
00:20:52He didn't know!
00:20:53Your Majesty,
00:20:54you can't kill him!
00:20:55What?
00:20:56You're defending him now?
00:20:57Lady Hera just left
00:20:58and you already want to
00:21:00execute her old servant.
00:21:01If she hears about this,
00:21:02what will she think of you?
00:21:03Right.
00:21:04She just left.
00:21:05She can't have gone far yet.
00:21:06I can still bring Hera back!
00:21:08Hera no longer holds any office.
00:21:10You have no right to force her back.
00:21:14She may not hold office anymore,
00:21:16but she is still my rightful fiancé.
00:21:18I have every right
00:21:20to bring her back.
00:21:21Hera abandoned the royal wedding
00:21:23and disgraced the crown
00:21:24before the entire kingdom.
00:21:26That's treason against
00:21:27the royal family
00:21:28and betrayal of the gods.
00:21:29A crime worthy of death.
00:21:32Exactly!
00:21:33Hera deserves to die for this!
00:21:36Brother,
00:21:37have you ever stopped to think
00:21:38why Hera left without a word?
00:21:40Have you reflected
00:21:41on anything you've done?
00:21:44Cain!
00:21:45Are you saying
00:21:46all of this is my fault?
00:21:47I would never dare.
00:21:49Enough!
00:21:49Get out!
00:21:50I don't want to see you right now!
00:21:55And you...
00:21:57Do you think
00:21:58this is my fault too?
00:21:59Of course not!
00:22:01This is all Hera's doing.
00:22:02She's manipulated
00:22:03everyone around her.
00:22:05She bewitched Cain
00:22:06with that pretty face of hers.
00:22:08That's why he keeps
00:22:09defending her.
00:22:10I knew it.
00:22:12Cain must have feelings
00:22:13for Hera.
00:22:14But now...
00:22:16How do I fix this mess?
00:22:18I thought marrying her
00:22:19would stabilize the kingdom.
00:22:21But she escaped.
00:22:23Turning me into a joke
00:22:24of the whole kingdom.
00:22:26I have a solution,
00:22:27your majesty.
00:22:28Say it!
00:22:30The only way to calm
00:22:31the royal court
00:22:32and the people
00:22:33is to find someone
00:22:35to impersonate Hera
00:22:36until this crisis passes.
00:22:38Your height and figure
00:22:39are close enough to Hera's.
00:22:41You'll do.
00:22:44Your majesty.
00:22:46I'm afraid I may not
00:22:47be worthy enough
00:22:48for such a role.
00:22:49That was not a request.
00:22:50It's an order.
00:22:52Do you dare refuse me?
00:22:55I...
00:22:55as you command.
00:23:02Hera...
00:23:02The kingdom you built
00:23:04and the man you loved.
00:23:05From now on,
00:23:07they'll all belong to me.
00:23:09Hera...
00:23:09I am the king of Cade.
00:23:11The ruler of this world.
00:23:13No one's allowed
00:23:14to defy me.
00:23:24Hera...
00:23:24Is that you?
00:23:26You finally came back to me.
00:23:28My Hera...
00:23:30I knew you were hurt before.
00:23:33But why wouldn't you
00:23:34just listen to me?
00:23:36I wanted to tell you everything.
00:23:38On our wedding night.
00:23:42Hera...
00:23:43I fell in love with you
00:23:44the very first moment
00:23:45I saw you.
00:23:47But I'm a king.
00:23:48I wasn't just myself.
00:23:50Couldn't you have understood me
00:23:51just a little more?
00:23:53But don't worry.
00:23:54I'll make it up to you
00:23:55from now on.
00:23:57Irene even taught me
00:23:59how to please a woman.
00:24:00I'll make you happy.
00:24:02I'll make all your pain disappear.
00:24:07Why is it you?
00:24:08Irene, where's my Hera?
00:24:14Your Majesty!
00:24:15We located Hera.
00:24:16Hera, she's currently
00:24:17in the Essos Ridge region.
00:24:18Great.
00:24:19I'm leaving immediately.
00:24:20I'll bring Hera back myself.
00:24:22Hera, you bitch.
00:24:24I'll send the Shadow Eclipse assassins
00:24:26to kill you in Essos Ridge
00:24:28before Moses ever reaches you.
00:24:30Never steal Moses from me again.
00:24:39Your mind's somewhere else tonight.
00:24:41After everything you did for Cade,
00:24:43after all your victories,
00:24:44this is how the king repaid you.
00:24:46How can the world be this unfair?
00:24:48I spent my whole life
00:24:49fighting wars for the kingdom.
00:24:51Now that I finally have peace,
00:24:53you should be happy for me.
00:24:55It may be so.
00:24:57But it's still so unfair.
00:24:59There, it's heartbreaking.
00:25:05Look out!
00:25:11Such strong magic.
00:25:13They aren't ordinary assassins.
00:25:19Hera, time to die.
00:25:28Don't touch her!
00:25:39Gareth!
00:25:48Gareth!
00:25:57Your power is impressive.
00:26:00But your old wounds never healed.
00:26:02You're finished.
00:26:05Tonight,
00:26:06I'm taking your life.
00:26:08Who sent you?
00:26:11Who else in Cade
00:26:12has this kind of power
00:26:13besides the king himself?
00:26:15Don't touch her!
00:26:20Cade!
00:26:21Cade!
00:26:22Stay with me!
00:26:22You can't die!
00:26:38You can't die!
00:26:40So it's true, Hera.
00:26:42I knew there was something
00:26:43between you and Cade.
00:26:44I came all this way
00:26:46to bring you back,
00:26:47and this is what I find?
00:26:48Sneaking around
00:26:49with my own brother?
00:26:50Why be so silly?
00:26:52You're a prince.
00:26:53Why would you throw yourself
00:26:54in front of that blade for me?
00:26:56It's not worth...
00:26:57Lady Hera,
00:26:58you gave everything for Cade.
00:27:00For its people.
00:27:01It's my honor to save you.
00:27:03I dreamed of marrying you.
00:27:05Of ruling this kingdom together.
00:27:07And all this time,
00:27:08you were with my brother?
00:27:09Don't think I can't see the truth.
00:27:12You ran from the wedding
00:27:13because you wanted
00:27:14to elope with Cade.
00:27:18Brother,
00:27:19you've got it wrong.
00:27:20I...
00:27:20I only followed
00:27:21because I was worried
00:27:22Hera might be in danger.
00:27:24We...
00:27:24We weren't running away together.
00:27:26You expect me to believe that?
00:27:28If your majesty
00:27:29has already decided
00:27:30what to believe,
00:27:32then there's nothing
00:27:33left to explain.
00:27:34Since you have nothing to say,
00:27:36guards!
00:27:36Execute Hera,
00:27:38now!
00:27:44That's a royal command!
00:27:46Are you all defying
00:27:47your king now?
00:27:48Your...
00:27:48Your majesty,
00:27:49Hera fought
00:27:50and bled for this kingdom.
00:27:51Earned countless honors.
00:27:53You...
00:27:53You cannot execute her.
00:27:55If none of you
00:27:56have the guts,
00:27:57I'll do.
00:27:58Your majesty,
00:28:00Hera sacrificed
00:28:01everything
00:28:01for this kingdom.
00:28:02How...
00:28:03How can you be
00:28:03so cruel to her?
00:28:05Everything I've done
00:28:06in this life,
00:28:07I can answer for
00:28:09before myself
00:28:09and before this land.
00:28:10Answer for yourself?
00:28:12Then what about
00:28:12our engagement?
00:28:13You abandoned me
00:28:14on our wedding day
00:28:15and humiliated the royal family
00:28:16before the entire kingdom.
00:28:18Did you ever think
00:28:18about me?
00:28:19Do you remember
00:28:20the document I handed you
00:28:21the last time
00:28:22I came to see you?
00:28:23You approved it yourself.
00:28:25The document?
00:28:27The document?
00:28:33Your majesty,
00:28:34I need your approval.
00:28:35The Orc Empire
00:28:36has sent envoys.
00:28:37They want peace talks.
00:28:40Approved.
00:28:41You may leave now.
00:28:43Someone,
00:28:43bring me that document.
00:28:45Now!
00:28:51No!
00:28:52No, it's not true.
00:28:54This has to be fake.
00:28:57No, it's not true.
00:28:58Read carefully.
00:28:58It's real.
00:29:00How?
00:29:01How did this happen?
00:29:03Why didn't I know about this?
00:29:04Who kept this from me?
00:29:05Who?
00:29:06It was you!
00:29:07Take him out
00:29:08and execute him now!
00:29:09Your majesty, please!
00:29:11I swear I hid nothing!
00:29:12You approved it
00:29:12without even a glance!
00:29:14Hera,
00:29:15I swear to the gods
00:29:16I didn't know
00:29:17it was a cancellation document.
00:29:18Please believe me.
00:29:20It's already done.
00:29:21Our engagement was over.
00:29:23There's nothing left
00:29:24between us now.
00:29:24You promised my father!
00:29:26You promised to protect Caden,
00:29:28to protect my throne!
00:29:30I did.
00:29:31And I fulfilled the promise.
00:29:33Then that means you can still-
00:29:35I once swore before the gods
00:29:35that I would give you
00:29:36one hundred chances.
00:29:38You've used every last one.
00:29:40One hundred?
00:29:41How could they all be gone already?
00:29:43No!
00:29:44You're lying to me!
00:29:45That was a hundred chances!
00:29:47There's no way
00:29:48they're gone already!
00:29:48You are stripped
00:29:49of your position as regent.
00:29:51Irene will take your place.
00:29:52As you command.
00:29:55Pity's foolish heroes
00:29:56who throw their lives away.
00:30:02From this day on,
00:30:04we are neither ruler and subject,
00:30:07nor husband and wife.
00:30:15Now the hundred chances
00:30:16are truly gone.
00:30:18It's time to leave.
00:30:21Everything in Kato
00:30:22belongs to me!
00:30:24Including you!
00:30:25I'd kill you
00:30:26rather than let you leave me!
00:30:32Fine.
00:30:33If you truly want my life,
00:30:35then take it.
00:30:37Your Majesty!
00:30:38You can't kill her!
00:30:41She'd rather be killed
00:30:43than come back to me.
00:30:44Your Majesty!
00:30:45You can't kill her!
00:30:51Your Highness,
00:30:52you don't have to do this.
00:30:54Your Majesty,
00:30:56Lady Hera has done
00:30:56too much for Kade.
00:30:57If you kill her like this,
00:30:59the kingdom will fall
00:31:00into chaos.
00:31:01She chose this herself.
00:31:02I didn't mean to.
00:31:04I beg you,
00:31:05Your Majesty,
00:31:06spare her life.
00:31:07Why do you care
00:31:08about her so much?
00:31:10This isn't personal.
00:31:12But the people
00:31:12know right from wrong.
00:31:14If you execute
00:31:15a national hero
00:31:16without cause,
00:31:17neither the nobles
00:31:18nor the people
00:31:19will accept it.
00:31:19Good.
00:31:20Everyone says
00:31:21Hera has the people
00:31:22behind her.
00:31:22Power everywhere.
00:31:24Loyal followers
00:31:25everywhere she goes.
00:31:26Yeah, that is terrifying.
00:31:27Your Majesty,
00:31:28please don't say that.
00:31:30The late King
00:31:30changed my life.
00:31:31He trusted me,
00:31:33believed in me.
00:31:33I'll never forget
00:31:34that kindness.
00:31:35So don't worry,
00:31:36Your Majesty.
00:31:37I will never rebel.
00:31:38You won't.
00:31:39But what about your men?
00:31:40Gavin, Aaron, Thor?
00:31:41Every one of them
00:31:42is a deadly commander.
00:31:43Can you guarantee
00:31:44they won't turn against me?
00:31:54I'll let them
00:31:55lay down their titles.
00:31:56and return home.
00:31:57The royal family
00:31:58will face no threat
00:31:59from them.
00:32:00You have my word.
00:32:01I can let you leave.
00:32:02But you must promise me
00:32:03never serve another kingdom.
00:32:05Marshal Hera
00:32:06is unbelievably talented.
00:32:08What a waste
00:32:08to be chained down
00:32:09by her.
00:32:09Watch your tongue!
00:32:10Dare question royal affairs
00:32:11in front of me
00:32:12want to die?
00:32:14And that's not enough.
00:32:15Swear before the gods
00:32:17that you will never serve
00:32:18anyone else
00:32:18for the rest of your life
00:32:19or you'll be punished
00:32:20with God's harshest judgment.
00:32:22I accept.
00:32:23I, Hera,
00:32:24swear before the gods.
00:32:25For the rest of my life
00:32:27I will fight me for Cade
00:32:28and remain loyal
00:32:28only to Cade.
00:32:29I will never serve
00:32:30another kingdom or power.
00:32:31If I break this oath
00:32:32may the gods deliver
00:32:34their harshest punishment
00:32:35upon me.
00:32:35Hera!
00:32:36You'd rather abandon
00:32:37all your talent
00:32:38and disappear into the wilderness
00:32:39than stay by my side?
00:32:41I already gave
00:32:42the first half of my life
00:32:43to Cade.
00:32:44I fulfilled
00:32:45the late king's final wish.
00:32:47Now it's time
00:32:48for me to leave.
00:32:50I want to travel the world
00:32:51live the rest of my life
00:32:53in peace
00:32:53and never involve myself
00:32:54in the kingdom again.
00:32:55You good, Hera!
00:32:56So you really think
00:32:57Cade will fall apart
00:32:58without you?
00:32:59That I can't rule
00:32:59this kingdom without you?
00:33:01You seriously
00:33:02overestimate yourself.
00:33:03I never thought that.
00:33:04That's exactly what you think.
00:33:06Lucky for Cade
00:33:07there's never a shortage
00:33:08of warriors
00:33:08or brilliant minds.
00:33:10With Irene leading the kingdom
00:33:12Cade will thrive just fine.
00:33:14Better than ever actually.
00:33:16I won't disappoint
00:33:17your majesty's trust.
00:33:21Moses is still young.
00:33:23I'm only trusting with him
00:33:24and the kingdom's future.
00:33:27I'll give it everything I have.
00:33:29The late king entrusted
00:33:30everything to me
00:33:31before he died.
00:33:32No matter what
00:33:33I have to do
00:33:33last thing for Cade.
00:33:35Your majesty is wise.
00:33:37Before I leave
00:33:38there are three things
00:33:39I beg you to remember.
00:33:41Interesting.
00:33:42So even you have something
00:33:43to beg me for now.
00:33:44First
00:33:45Cade has suffered
00:33:46through years of war.
00:33:48The people are exhausted.
00:33:50Lower the taxes
00:33:50and don't burden them
00:33:51any further.
00:33:53I already know that.
00:33:54Second
00:33:54The northern cities
00:33:56were only recently subdued.
00:33:58Morrill and his men
00:33:58are fierce and proud.
00:34:00While I was here
00:34:00I could keep them loyal.
00:34:02Please treat them
00:34:02with mercy and respect.
00:34:04If you push them too hard
00:34:05they will rebel
00:34:05which will bring disaster
00:34:06to the kingdom.
00:34:15Lord Moriak
00:34:16unstoppable!
00:34:18One man against
00:34:1910,000!
00:34:22Don't worry.
00:34:23Irene is the truly gifted one
00:34:25in Cade.
00:34:26She's far more capable
00:34:27than you ever were.
00:34:28Third
00:34:29Never trust the Orc Empire.
00:34:31Gromash and his court
00:34:32are brutal by nature.
00:34:34Never lower your guard
00:34:35around them.
00:34:37Finished?
00:34:37That's all?
00:34:38Nothing new
00:34:39to rule the kingdom?
00:34:40Don't underestimate
00:34:41these three rules.
00:34:43If you can truly
00:34:44follow them
00:34:44Cade will be in peace
00:34:46for a hundred years.
00:34:48Hera
00:34:49stop pretending
00:34:49to be so loyal.
00:34:50You disgust me.
00:34:52Every word I said
00:34:53came from my heart.
00:34:54Listen carefully!
00:34:55This kingdom won't
00:34:56stop without you.
00:34:56No, Cade will even
00:34:57become stronger than before.
00:34:58That's good.
00:34:59May Cade kingdom
00:35:00prosper
00:35:01and may my king
00:35:02be safe and well.
00:35:03then we shall see.
00:35:06Guards!
00:35:07Escort Cade away
00:35:08and treat his injuries
00:35:09immediately.
00:35:10Yes, your majesty.
00:35:13Your majesty.
00:35:35Why are you here?
00:35:36The moment you left
00:35:38all three of us
00:35:39were stripped
00:35:40of military command.
00:35:41We refused to continue
00:35:43serving that damned king.
00:35:45We suffered endless
00:35:46humiliation in the royal court.
00:35:48We would rather follow you
00:35:49even if it means
00:35:50doing the roughest labor.
00:35:52Lady Hera
00:35:52please don't leave.
00:35:54Cade cannot survive
00:35:55without you.
00:35:56You gave everything
00:35:57for Cade.
00:35:58We can't let you
00:35:59leave like this.
00:36:00Everything is settled.
00:36:02I have nothing left
00:36:02to stay for.
00:36:03I only wish to lay down
00:36:05my burdens
00:36:05and live a few peaceful years.
00:36:07During your years in power
00:36:08you did so much for us.
00:36:11Now traitorous dimensions
00:36:12drive away a loyal hero.
00:36:14We refuse to accept it.
00:36:17The royal court
00:36:19has wronged
00:36:19its greatest protector.
00:36:21That's right!
00:36:22All gatherings
00:36:23must come to an end
00:36:24someday.
00:36:26Everyone
00:36:26please go home.
00:36:27Don't make things
00:36:28harder for Hera.
00:36:34May your road ahead
00:36:35be safe, my lady.
00:36:37May the rest of your life
00:36:39be peaceful and stable.
00:36:52You saw it
00:36:53with your own eyes.
00:36:54The people of this land
00:36:55recognize only Hera
00:36:56in their hearts
00:36:57not the royal family.
00:36:58I will accomplish
00:36:59great deeds
00:36:59for the world to see.
00:37:01I'll make Hera
00:37:02understand
00:37:02who truly deserves
00:37:04to rule Cade.
00:37:05Your majesty
00:37:06I have a brilliant plan
00:37:07that will secure
00:37:08your throne quickly
00:37:09and elevate your prestige
00:37:10far above Hera's.
00:37:11Speak!
00:37:12What plan?
00:37:13Though Hera is gone
00:37:14her influence
00:37:15within the court
00:37:16still remains.
00:37:18Your majesty
00:37:18should dismiss
00:37:19every official
00:37:20connected to her
00:37:21and replace them all
00:37:22with people loyal
00:37:23only to you.
00:37:24And you must win
00:37:24over the nobles
00:37:25and ministers
00:37:25by increasing their salaries
00:37:27and privileges.
00:37:28Only when those in power
00:37:29benefit from your rule
00:37:30will they truly devote
00:37:31themselves to you.
00:37:32Only then will Cade
00:37:33truly belong to you.
00:37:36But the royal treasury
00:37:37has long been emptied.
00:37:39We simply don't have
00:37:40the money for increased rewards.
00:37:43Then raise
00:37:44the taxes.
00:37:45But before Hera left
00:37:46she repeatedly warned me
00:37:48never to raise taxes.
00:37:49Keep the people
00:37:50to live peacefully.
00:37:51You are mistaken.
00:37:53To secure royal authority
00:37:54you must first secure
00:37:55the loyalty of those
00:37:56who hold power around you.
00:37:57Only when officials
00:37:58profit from your rule
00:37:59will they truly obey you.
00:38:01Hera wasn't protecting
00:38:02the people
00:38:02by opposing higher taxes.
00:38:04She was deliberately
00:38:05holding you back
00:38:06so you could never
00:38:07truly secure your throne.
00:38:09You mustn't fall
00:38:09for her tricks.
00:38:11What a scheming woman.
00:38:13Even after leaving
00:38:14she's still plotting
00:38:15against me.
00:38:17As you said
00:38:18deliver my order
00:38:20at once.
00:38:21Raise the taxes.
00:38:24Your majesty
00:38:25as minister of agriculture
00:38:27I present
00:38:27three treasures.
00:38:29Superior wheat seeds
00:38:30fertile soil fertilizer
00:38:32and gilded farming sepples.
00:38:34May Cade enjoy
00:38:35endless harvests
00:38:36overflowing granaries
00:38:37and freedom from famine
00:38:38forever.
00:38:39Excellent.
00:38:40Truly excellent.
00:38:41Cade is fortunate
00:38:42to have such a devoted
00:38:43official as you.
00:38:44I oversee the kingdom's
00:38:46military affairs
00:38:47and offer the
00:38:48Blacksteel Command Seal
00:38:49the Lionheart Battle Armor
00:38:51and the Hundred War Bone.
00:38:53May Cade Cavalry
00:38:54become invincible
00:38:55and all neighboring lands
00:38:56submit before us.
00:38:57Well done.
00:38:58That's Irene's brother.
00:39:00You've forged Cade Army
00:39:01into such a powerful force.
00:39:03With you there
00:39:04our borders
00:39:05will remain secure forever.
00:39:07I present
00:39:07the Star Crystal Stepter
00:39:09the Deep Sea Pearl Crown
00:39:11and the Holy Light
00:39:12Blessing Scroll.
00:39:14May your majesty's glory
00:39:15shake the world
00:39:16win the sincere loyalty
00:39:18of all people
00:39:19and secure your
00:39:20supreme royal authority
00:39:21forever.
00:39:23Long live King Moses.
00:39:26May Cade resign forever.
00:39:28Ever since Irene
00:39:29began assisting me
00:39:30in governing the kingdom
00:39:31Cade has grown stronger
00:39:33every time.
00:39:35The people live peacefully
00:39:36and the court stands united.
00:39:39This is true prosperity.
00:39:48The entire kingdom
00:39:50celebrates today
00:39:51and every minister
00:39:52offers congratulations.
00:39:55Why are you sitting there
00:39:56in silence
00:39:56without the slightest smile?
00:40:03Congratulations,
00:40:04your majesty.
00:40:05Are you still unwilling
00:40:06to accept it
00:40:07thinking that without Hera
00:40:08Cade could never
00:40:10maintain its essence glory?
00:40:11I didn't think so.
00:40:13Let's stop talking this.
00:40:14Even if Hera
00:40:15possessed some ability
00:40:16how could she possibly
00:40:18compare to Irene's
00:40:19wisdom and strategy?
00:40:20Your majesty!
00:40:22Enough!
00:40:23You still side with her
00:40:24in your heart!
00:40:25I would truly like
00:40:27to see Hera's expression
00:40:28when she realizes
00:40:29Cade remains prosperous
00:40:30even without her.
00:40:31Prosperous?
00:40:32The taxes are crushing
00:40:33the people until
00:40:34they can barely breathe.
00:40:35Citizens are displaced,
00:40:36suffering miserably everywhere.
00:40:38and you call
00:40:38this prosperous?
00:40:46The taxes are due!
00:40:48How dare you lay payment?
00:40:49If you still refuse
00:40:50spare money to pay,
00:40:51I'll whip you to death!
00:40:53Sir,
00:40:53this year's harvest
00:40:54completely failed.
00:40:56The taxes are far too heavy.
00:40:58We truly can't afford to pay.
00:40:59You have no choice!
00:41:01This is the king's command.
00:41:03Anyone who resists taxation
00:41:04will be executed
00:41:06on the spot.
00:41:07How dare you speak
00:41:08such nonsense here!
00:41:10Cade is peaceful
00:41:11and prosperous today
00:41:12entirely because
00:41:13of his majesty.
00:41:14Raising taxes slightly
00:41:15is what made this
00:41:16grand banquet
00:41:17and this stability possible.
00:41:19What is wrong with that?
00:41:20Before Hera left,
00:41:22she repeatedly warned
00:41:23that taxes must never
00:41:24be raised.
00:41:25The people needed
00:41:26time to recover.
00:41:28You promised her that.
00:41:30Shut up!
00:41:32Hera has no right
00:41:33to lecture me
00:41:33on how to govern
00:41:34my kingdom!
00:41:35If you refuse to listen
00:41:36to honest counsel
00:41:37and remain this stubborn,
00:41:38then I have nothing
00:41:39left to say.
00:41:41Insolence!
00:41:41Since you despise
00:41:43everything here so much,
00:41:44then get out!
00:41:45Go to the far north
00:41:46and never back again!
00:41:47Your majesty,
00:41:49please don't!
00:41:50The far north borders
00:41:51the orc territories.
00:41:52If Prince Cain goes there,
00:41:54he will certainly die!
00:41:56How is that possible?
00:41:58Aren't Blackstone City
00:41:59and Frostwave City
00:42:00still standing between them?
00:42:01Those two cities
00:42:03have already...
00:42:05Already what?
00:42:06Speak!
00:42:07They have already been
00:42:08ceded by Lady Irene
00:42:09to the orc empire
00:42:10of the Gromish royal court.
00:42:12Your majesty,
00:42:13those two cities
00:42:14were nothing but
00:42:14barren wastelands.
00:42:15I made the decision
00:42:16to precede them
00:42:17in exchange for peace
00:42:17along the borders.
00:42:19They're only two
00:42:19worthless cities.
00:42:20Then that's it,
00:42:21not a great deal.
00:42:30This little beauty
00:42:32looks good!
00:42:33Take her with us!
00:42:36Let me go!
00:42:38Let me go!
00:42:41You beast!
00:42:43Let go of my daughter!
00:42:45Ah!
00:42:49With the king
00:42:50being this foolish,
00:42:52Cade will fall.
00:42:54Apologize to me now
00:42:55and I'll let you stay
00:42:56in the royal city.
00:42:58Spare you from suffering
00:42:59in the far north.
00:43:00There's no need.
00:43:01I'll leave at once.
00:43:02You would rather die
00:43:03than remain by my side?
00:43:05Yes.
00:43:06There is no hope left here.
00:43:09My heart has long since died.
00:43:11I'm leaving now.
00:43:12I'm leaving now.
00:43:15Report!
00:43:16A devastating locust playing
00:43:17has erupted in Gale Wind City.
00:43:19The crops have all been devoured
00:43:20and countless civilians
00:43:21are starving to death.
00:43:22and I'll let you go.
00:43:29Get it moving!
00:43:30Move me!
00:43:31Give it to me!
00:43:31Fuck it!
00:43:36Your majesty!

00:48:16people and she already handed over two northern fortress to the grommish crown the kingdom's falling

00:48:29i'll go back one more time that's great things are already at the breaking point we need a plan
00:48:34immediately the situation isn't hopeless yet if we can provide food and money to calm the people
00:48:41the crisis can still be contained the only thing i'm worried about what's that more look of the north
00:48:47he's fierce and hot-tempered he can't be threatened or if he's pushed too far he'll rebel for sure
00:48:52and once that happens kade will be facing enemies inside and outside the kingdom there will be no
00:48:57saving it then moses can't be that foolish he already made one mistake raising taxes surely he
00:49:02won't make another i hope not your majesty general morlock of the north is outside requesting an immediate
00:49:09audience morlock before hera left she repeatedly warned me to treat him with respect he's fierce and
00:49:15hot-tempered if pushed him too hard he'll rebel pass down my order prepare the best wine and food
00:49:21welcome general morack with the highest honors
00:49:27your majesty please don't the treasury's already empty every coin matters right now more likes nothing
00:49:33more than a surrender general he doesn't deserve the honors some ordinary food is more than enough
00:49:39and he's obviously here to beg for tax relief for the people but we can't lower taxes anymore
00:49:47leave this to me your majesty i'll put him in his place myself
00:49:51but hara warned me to treat him with respect what you do could cause real trouble you worry too much
00:49:58your majesty men like him only understand strength leave everything to me nothing will go wrong
00:50:12your majesty i'm morack see your majesty was i right looks like you were this morlock may look
00:50:20intimidating but in the end he's just a defeated general with nowhere else to go fine get up and speak

00:55:08royal council hall the confrontation nearly exploded into bloodshred god morlock's temper is terrifying
00:55:13he openly challenging the royal family could have completely caused a chaos morlock entered the
00:55:18capital with a handful of trusted men if moses had executed him on the spot to stop him returning
00:55:23the north this rebellion could still have been prevented but the king chose to save irene instead
00:55:28he ordered the guards to stand down and allowed morack to leave for the north safely
00:55:34no that's bad a lot of innocent people are going to die now
00:55:41you ungrateful traitor the king spared your life out of mercy because of your past service

00:59:11mentioning hera over and over again if you ask me hera must be the real mastermind behind all of
00:59:15this no is it truly hera's secretly plotting against me think about it your majesty she once
00:59:22controlled the entire kingdom's military power stood above everyone after being stripped of
00:59:26everything and exiled how could she possibly accept that that's why she manipulated morlock
00:59:31into storming the palace it seems like i was the target but in reality she's humiliating the royal
00:59:36and attacking your authority and shaking your throne step by step damn her she can't defeat me openly
00:59:44so now she hides and plays dirty letting her followers create chaos humiliating me provoking the
00:59:50entire kingdom of kata everyone knows hera's good at winning people over she tricks soldiers and
00:59:55silizans with fake kindness and pretty words we absolutely cannot fall for her lies must crush her
01:00:00scheme before it's too late but it's already too late i let morlock go to save you giving him
01:00:05chance to rally all his forces and march south how are we supposed to stop this war don't panic your
01:00:10majesty i've already prepared for this my brother fulton is guarding stonehold city the only path from
01:00:16north to the capital its defenses are impenetrable and the supplies are abundant as long as stonehold
01:00:21stands morick will never reach the capital city and my brother's a battle heart in general morlock may
01:00:27be strong but he's just a brute there's no way he can break through the defenses you can rest easy
01:00:34your
01:00:34majesty your majesty terrible news from the front lines morack's army has completely captured stonehold city
01:00:43general fulton had his neck crushed by morack
01:00:52no that's impossible my brothers fought in countless battles stonehold city was supposed
01:00:58to be impressible how could it fall so fast how could he die enough irene all your grand lies have
01:01:05mislaid the court and ruined the kingdom's plans now morlock's army has broken through the north and
01:01:10is marching straight for the capital tell me at this point is there even a way to turn this around
01:01:19you your majesty please calm your anger i i have one final plan that can save the kingdom from
01:01:27destruction then spit it out now the soldiers in capital are too weak to stop morlock's hundred
01:01:32thousand elite riders the only option is to send envoys to the orcan empire offer them whatever they
01:01:40want in exchange for their forces to crush this rebellion absolutely not i will never agree to
01:01:46something this insane your majesty remember my final warning never forget it the orcs are savage by nature
01:01:56bloodthirsty and ambitious they've always coveted the rich lands of cade they can never be trusted i
01:02:02have never forgotten harrah's warning the orcs are greedy wolves allying with them would be suicidal it
01:02:09could destroy cade your majesty this is no time to hesitate mordech's army is launching straight for us
01:02:17he wants your throne the orcs only want gold food and a small piece of border territory if paying that
01:02:23price
01:02:23protects your crown and saves all our lives it's more than worth it fine we've almost reached the
01:02:29dead end there's no other choice now i'll take the risk rest easy your majesty i'll send trusted envoys
01:02:35to the orc empire tonight to secure the alliance and get their army as fast as possible
01:02:54marshal harrah the undefeated your majesty you're finally here i've waited day and night for this
01:02:59moment you have no idea how those snakes in the royal court slandered you humiliated you and trampled
01:03:05all over your loyalty in front of the entire palace i'm clear with everything you've carried too much
01:03:09anger and injustice these past months kings blind and arine controls the court i understand exactly
01:03:14what's going on but we're warriors to protect the people no matter what happens we cannot start a war
01:03:20lightly now i need you to order the army to withdraw north show the kingdom our sincerity i'll personally
01:03:27return to the capital and negotiate with the king one last time if he still insists on dragging the
01:03:31kingdom deeper into ruin we'll march and take back justice for everyone marshal harrah i don't want my
01:03:39soldiers dying meaninglessly either i'll follow every order you give without question
01:03:46my ministers morlick has completely taken stonehold city his rebel army could arrive at the capital
01:03:52any moment now so does anyone here have a plan to save this kingdom amazing you talk endlessly like
01:03:59genius every day but now that the kingdom's collapsing suddenly everyone's silent where is my royal guard
01:04:06why is there not been one soldier here to protect me your majesty the royal family has already lost the
01:04:12people's support completely disasters spread across the kingdom but the court failed to help the
01:04:17citizens then taxes kept rising again and again the people's anger has reached its limit at this point
01:04:22the royal guard exists in name alone the orcs are probably still days away there's no army and no
01:04:30general left in the capital if more like attacks now my throne my life my everything are gone
01:04:37urgent military report your majesty speak what happened morlok's hundred thousand man army has completely
01:04:45withdraw what they retreated why would they suddenly pull back without reasons i couldn't uncover the
01:04:52reason your majesty but i personally saw the entire army break camp and retreat over a hundred miles north
01:05:01your majesty isn't the answer obvious my strategy worked perfectly just the threat of my preparations
01:05:10alone terrified morick so badly that he fled without even fighting
01:05:18then would you explain what strategy scared away a hundred thousand elite soldiers overnight
01:05:24i secretly sent trusted envoys to the orc emperor long ago the alliance has already been secured
01:05:31their elite reinforcements are on the way to the capital as we speak morlack must have learned about
01:05:36it and realizes he could never defeat our combined forces so that's why irene's brilliant strategy
01:05:42intimidated the rebels and forced back a hundred thousand enemy troops without sacrificing a single
01:05:47soldier from the capital irene you are the kingdom's greatest killer my most trusted
01:05:54minister your majesty please reconsider you cannot make this mistake it's killing ourselves they are
01:05:59long coveting our lands even the late king personally led the campaign against them and died on the
01:06:03battlefield that blood feed hasn't been settled how can you bow your head to our greatest enemy and
01:06:08invite them into our kingdom you're condemning cave to destruction with your own hands your majesty
