00:00:26Today, Avalon ends this.
00:00:29That dragon dies!
00:00:56Master, are you hurt?
00:01:00Where is Aldrich?
00:01:09Need a hand, Master?
00:01:14Are you going to let it kill me?
00:01:16Not a chance.
00:01:20No!
00:01:22No!
00:01:35No!
00:01:37No!
00:01:37No!
00:01:39No!
00:01:47Master, aren't you going to praise me?
00:01:52There's your praise.
00:01:54Now pack your things.
00:01:56Leave the Isle, go to the mainland.
00:01:59Why?
00:01:59Because I was late, and a bit too pleased with my magical gift?
00:02:04Because you're ready.
00:02:07Over ten years ago, I brought you back to the Isle of Avalon.
00:02:11Your grandfather's death has been haunting you ever since.
00:02:13Now that you've become the best mage the world has ever seen, you should go to find the truth.
00:02:22Master.
00:02:25Also, this is the marriage your grandfather arranged for you.
00:02:29When you go back, do not forget to fulfill the betrothal.
00:02:32What?
00:02:34What?
00:02:34I have a fiancee.
00:02:39Lady Ellera Aldwyn.
00:02:48State your business.
00:02:51I'm looking for Duke Aldwyn.
00:02:53Yeah, you and every bregger in the kingdom.
00:02:55Scram.
00:03:02You're Aldric.
00:03:04That's me.
00:03:05I've been waiting for you.
00:03:08Follow me.
00:03:17Someone's cursed this place.
00:03:26After I break this engagement, I'll warn them.
00:03:29Consider it my compensation.
00:03:39My lady, the boy is here.
00:03:42No manners.
00:03:45You want one?
00:03:49I came to see Duke Aldwyn.
00:03:51Where is he?
00:03:52His lordship isn't available to just anyone.
00:03:56Whatever you have to say, you can say it to me.
00:03:58Fine. Works for me.
00:04:05So.
00:04:07You've come about the betrothal.
00:04:09Yep.
00:04:10House Aldwyn.
00:04:11House Aldwyn has stood for over a hundred years.
00:04:14In wealth and status, we are the greatest family in this town.
00:04:19Like the chair you're sitting on.
00:04:21It took two million gold to build, reserved only for the head of House Aldwyn alone.
00:04:27Do you understand what I'm telling you?
00:04:30Your house is wealthy.
00:04:32For generations, our marriages have been between equals.
00:04:36Different stations, different births.
00:04:38It only ends badly.
00:04:41To make it clear, House Aldwyn cannot marry its daughter to a penniless beggar.
00:04:46I'm here to break the engagement.
00:04:48But I didn't expect House Aldwyn to look down on people like this.
00:04:52Fine.
00:04:53Saves me the trouble of explaining.
00:04:56Here is two million in gold.
00:04:59Wow.
00:05:00Take the money.
00:05:00Leave my daughter.
00:05:02Go as far away as you can.
00:05:08Two million.
00:05:09Your house truly is wealthy.
00:05:11What? You want more?
00:05:12I'll write you a note for three million.
00:05:15Ten million.
00:05:16Boy, don't be ungrateful.
00:05:19Greed will be your ruin.
00:05:20You might not live to spend it.
00:05:22I don't want any of this money.
00:05:29And the marriage?
00:05:30I'm the one calling it off.
00:05:34Duke Aldwyn won't let this go.
00:05:36Maybe I'll have to talk to him later in person.
00:05:37My lady, should I find someone to deal with you?
00:05:43No deaths.
00:05:45Just teach him a lesson.
00:05:47Make sure he leaves the town.
00:05:50Yes, my lady.
00:05:51No deaths.
00:05:53No deaths.
00:05:55No deaths.
00:06:05That's good.
00:06:07No deaths.
00:06:13They're all a lost.
00:06:14It's a living place.
00:06:14The one who comes to death.
00:06:15No deaths.
00:06:17No deaths.
00:06:18No deaths.
00:06:28Grandfather, about the marriage, I meant to go to House Aldwin and cancel it.
00:06:34But the Aldwins were so arrogant, I taught them a small lesson.
00:06:41But no matter how this ends, I'll repay Duke Aldwin's kindness.
00:06:45I know you two were close.
00:06:46Stuart Marcus says make it clean.
00:06:48Kill the boy.
00:06:49Ten thousand gold each.
00:07:03Don't blame us, kid.
00:07:05You crossed the wrong people.
00:07:09Who?
00:07:21What the fuck?
00:07:24What the fuck?
00:07:32Talk.
00:07:33Who sent you?
00:07:35No one.
00:07:36No one.
00:07:37You want to go back in the water?
00:07:42It was Stuart Marcus who sent us.
00:07:45So afraid of me marrying into the family.
00:07:47Get out of here.
00:07:51Young man, mercy is a virtue.
00:07:54You did the right thing letting them go.
00:07:56Good sir.
00:07:57Thank you for saving me.
00:07:58You could see my spell.
00:08:00Young man, you're more than meets the eye.
00:08:03And children who honor their elders are rare these days.
00:08:10Good sir.
00:08:11You have a shadow curse on you.
00:08:14If you don't treat it soon, it will destroy you from within.
00:08:19You know healing magic?
00:08:22You know healing magic?
00:08:24A little.
00:08:25Can you cure me?
00:08:26Sure.
00:08:27Please sit.
00:08:28I'm going to use Avalon needles to cleanse your curse.
00:08:50The shadow assassin has come for me.
00:08:52I can't protect you.
00:08:53Go.
00:08:54Good sir.
00:08:54Focus on your healing.
00:08:56Leave this one to me.
00:08:58This is between me and Silas.
00:09:01Walk away.
00:09:02I'll let you live.
00:09:03Shut up.
00:09:05I've been wanting to see what the infamous shadow magic has become.
00:09:08You're asking for death.
00:09:19My wrens.
00:09:20They're broken.
00:09:21Who are you?
00:09:22A mage from Avalon.
00:09:24He killed a shadow assassin with one strike.
00:09:27Avalon magic lives up to its reputation.
00:09:30Good sir.
00:09:31You're cured.
00:09:34I've been wounded for nearly ten years.
00:09:37I've seen every healer in the realm.
00:09:40All of them failed.
00:09:41Then you show up.
00:09:43One treatment.
00:09:44And the pain is gone.
00:09:46This is the legendary Avalon needle art?
00:09:50Yes.
00:09:51I learned this from my master Theron.
00:09:54Your master invented these root stones.
00:09:56Let's anyone in the kingdom talk to each other, no matter how far apart.
00:10:00Take it.
00:10:01I've made a link between your rune stone and mine.
00:10:04Next time you're in trouble, just say my name into the stone.
00:10:08I'll appear.
00:10:09I've always wanted one.
00:10:11Master Theron never allowed.
00:10:13Thanks, sir.
00:10:15I'll see you around.
00:10:20You drove Aldric away.
00:10:22Both of you.
00:10:25Father, what are you talking about?
00:10:28What's wrong?
00:10:30Ask your wife.
00:10:31Ask her what she's done.
00:10:33What happened?
00:10:35How could our daughter marry some penniless island boy?
00:10:39Father, Isolette isn't wrong.
00:10:41How could a penniless boy match our house's standing?
00:10:45You fool!
00:10:47Penniless has any family not known poverty?
00:10:53Has House Alder never known poverty?
00:10:57You drove Aldric away.
00:11:00You'll regret this.
00:11:03Find him.
00:11:05Find him now.
00:11:06If you don't bring Aldric back, you can forget about being heir.
00:11:18Aldric!
00:11:19Do I know you?
00:11:19It's Tessa.
00:11:20You disappeared for 12 years and that's all you have to say.
00:11:23Do I know you?
00:11:2412 years and you still hug just as hard.
00:11:26You deserved it.
00:11:27Where have you been?
00:11:28We thought you were dead.
00:11:29Remote island.
00:11:30Studying with my master.
00:11:31Studying what?
00:11:32How to be a hermit?
00:11:33Something like that.
00:11:34Oh, and Duncan, he's the steward at a tavern now.
00:11:38He's going to lose his mind when he sees you.
00:11:40But first, you need new clothes and a haircut.
00:11:45As steward, zero tolerance, zero mistakes.
00:11:49Get it fixed.
00:11:51Now.
00:11:54Duncan!
00:11:59No way.
00:12:04You grew.
00:12:09You grew.
00:12:11You grew.
00:12:11You actually grew.
00:12:12And you got presentable.
00:12:15What happened to the scrawny kid who cried when he scraped his knee?
00:12:18He grew up.
00:12:22Barely.
00:12:24Where the hell have you been?
00:12:26Remote island.
00:12:27Studying with my master.
00:12:28Studying what?
00:12:30Duncan.
00:12:31Aldric just came out of the isled.
00:12:33We need to take care of him in town.
00:12:36Don't worry, Aldric.
00:12:38As long as I have food on my plate, you'll have some too.
00:12:43We'll be brothers for life.
00:12:45When I make it, I'll never let you go hungry.
00:12:51Thanks, Duncan.
00:12:53Don't mention it.
00:13:01Tessa!
00:13:02Lily!
00:13:03What are you doing here?
00:13:04I came here to drink with my friend from the Academy.
00:13:07All elites.
00:13:08Upper class of the town.
00:13:09Oh, what a coincidence.
00:13:11I forgot you just got into the town academy.
00:13:14I should introduce you to them.
00:13:15This is Lady Alara Aldwyn of House Aldwyn.
00:13:28Lady Alara is so beautiful.
00:13:31Our Alara is the most beautiful girl in town.
00:13:34Everyone knows that.
00:13:36Don't call me Lady Alara.
00:13:37I'm one year ahead.
00:13:39Call me sis.
00:13:40Or just Alara.
00:13:41And if anyone gives you trouble at the Academy, you tell me.
00:13:45Thank you, sis.
00:13:48And this is Sir Godfrey, here to the Merchant Guild.
00:13:52And this is Sir Percival.
00:13:53Hello.
00:13:55And this...
00:13:57I've got no titles.
00:13:59Professional island dweller.
00:14:01So, you're just a commoner.
00:14:04Since Tessa is Lily's friend, why don't we all drink together?
00:14:09Duncan will have your finest room.
00:14:12Hmm.
00:14:13Fine with me, Alara.
00:14:16Fine.
00:14:16Come, Tessa.
00:14:17I'll tell you about the Academy.
00:14:20Go.
00:14:21Have fun.
00:14:23I'll be here with Duncan.
00:14:24I'm fine.
00:14:26You're coming, too.
00:14:28Him.
00:14:29Nobles don't share air with commoners.
00:14:31Especially not one from whatever flea-bent island he calls home.
00:14:36Tessa is from my Academy.
00:14:39Sir Godfrey's letting you come as a favour.
00:14:43Then count me out.
00:14:44If my friend isn't good enough for your table, neither am I.
00:14:47Enough.
00:14:48Either we all go, or nobody goes.
00:14:50We're here to have fun, not to measure status.
00:14:54My unknown betrothed has a spine.
00:14:57Good to know.
00:14:59Fine, fine.
00:15:00More people, more fun.
00:15:09A toast.
00:15:15New friends.
00:15:17Let's take out runestones and make links with each other.
00:15:21Hey, commoner.
00:15:23You first.
00:15:27I don't know how to make a link.
00:15:33You don't know how to use a runestone?
00:15:35Never needed one.
00:15:37He just got to town.
00:15:39Leave him alone.
00:15:40It's fine.
00:15:41First time for everything.
00:15:43Take out your stone.
00:15:44I'll teach you.
00:15:46Bold of you to assume he has one.
00:15:52What is that, a pebble?
00:15:55So small and plain.
00:15:56Did they make this specially for peasants?
00:15:58I like it.
00:15:59It was a gift.
00:16:00Here's the deal.
00:16:02You play the drums for us.
00:16:04Sing one of those Yahoo tunes from your little island.
00:16:07I'll buy you the best rude stone gold can buy.
00:16:10Deal?
00:16:10Play, play!
00:16:12Stop it!
00:16:14Stop it!
00:16:18Don't think you can take Taina just because she's nice to you, hillbilly.
00:16:22Are you playing or not?
00:16:24Give me back my stone.
00:16:26This junk, I could buy ten of these and not feel it.
00:16:36You couldn't afford to replace it.
00:16:38Friend, watch your mouth.
00:16:41You're not my friend.
00:16:43You ungrateful brat!
00:16:45Sir Godfrey treats you with respect.
00:16:47And you will see blood today.
00:16:52You dare curse me?
00:16:56Lively in here.
00:17:05Pretty girl.
00:17:07What do you want?
00:17:08Can't you see this is a human's party?
00:17:11Come with me.
00:17:12You'll serve my lord.
00:17:13Big bags of gold for you.
00:17:15Who the hell are you?
00:17:18You're asking who I am.
00:17:20You heard me.
00:17:21I'm the heir of House Percival.
00:17:23Now get lost while you still can.
00:17:25Look at Sir Percivice.
00:17:27Now that's a real man.
00:17:30Standing up to rude, violent orcs.
00:17:33Not like some people.
00:17:35Cowards.
00:17:36Are you going to get lost or not?
00:17:46I hate it when people point fingers at me.
00:17:57I hate it when people point fingers at me.
00:18:02Still asking who I am.
00:18:06I won't ask.
00:18:08I won't ask.
00:18:09I won't ask.
00:18:09I won't ask.
00:18:10Sir Godfrey!
00:18:11Help me.
00:18:12Friend.
00:18:13You've barged into my room and hurt my people.
00:18:16That's not right.
00:18:16And who the hell are you?
00:18:18I am Sir Godfrey.
00:18:20My father is Lord Godfrey, head of the Merchant Guild.
00:18:23He's friends with some of the best mages in the kingdom.
00:18:26Even from Avalon.
00:18:27You don't want to start a war between two races.
00:18:30I believe.
00:18:31So, why don't you show some respect and let us have fun?
00:18:35The Merchant Guild.
00:18:37Lord Godfrey.
00:18:39Best mages in the kingdom.
00:18:41Avalon.
00:18:43Yes.
00:18:44Barely.
00:18:45I'll give you that much.
00:18:49But I'm not finished.
00:18:50Your friend.
00:18:52I can let him go.
00:18:55But this girl.
00:18:57She comes with me.
00:18:59My Lord doesn't take no for answer.
00:19:06No.
00:19:07She's not going either.
00:19:11Are you sure?
00:19:13I don't know where you're from.
00:19:14But in this room tonight, you're not taking anyone.
00:19:18Which young Lord is so important that...
00:19:27I can't even take someone away.
00:19:33Baron Rathburn.
00:19:34I...
00:19:35I didn't...
00:19:36These the ones?
00:19:37They're the ones who stopped me.
00:19:40So you're the Merchant Guild's young Lord.
00:19:43Baron Rathburn.
00:19:44If I'd known it was you...
00:19:46If you'd known it was me...
00:19:47What?
00:19:48You would have kissed my boots.
00:19:51Who is he?
00:19:53Baron Rathburn.
00:19:54He runs the underground world.
00:19:57Those orcs are his mercenaries.
00:19:59He hires them for the dirty work.
00:20:01So what?
00:20:02Ser Godfrey has the whole Merchant Guild.
00:20:05Shut up.
00:20:08Smart boy.
00:20:10The girl.
00:20:11She comes with me.
00:20:14Not a word, boy.
00:20:16Not one.
00:20:18No.
00:20:20You're not taking her.
00:20:22Then I'll take you instead.
00:20:24Baron Rathburn, she's...
00:20:25You speak again.
00:20:27I cut out your tongue.
00:20:33Take both women.
00:20:36Don't come closer.
00:20:38Stay back.
00:20:42Today,
00:20:44none of you are taking anyone.
00:20:49Who said that?
00:20:55Here's your chance.
00:20:57Everyone in your crew kneels.
00:20:59Apologizes to Tessa.
00:21:03Then this whole thing is over.
00:21:13You have no idea who you're talking to.
00:21:16No.
00:21:17But I know that if you don't kneel and apologize...
00:21:21That leg is mine.
00:21:23You're insane.
00:21:24Ser Godfrey couldn't handle this.
00:21:25And you think you can?
00:21:27You're going to get us all killed.
00:21:28He's right.
00:21:29Don't drag us down with you.
00:21:30Baron Rathburn.
00:21:32We don't know him.
00:21:34He's nothing to us.
00:21:35Aldric, this isn't your fight.
00:21:37I've got it.
00:21:38Please take care of Tessa for me, Lady Alara.
00:21:40You still don't know who you're talking to.
00:21:45I don't know.
00:21:46And I don't care.
00:21:48But that leg...
00:21:49It's mine.
00:21:50You're dead, you're mine.
00:22:04You're me.
00:22:11No wonder you're so cocky.
00:22:14You're a fighter.
00:22:16Aldric, careful.
00:22:18Rathnith is not a quitter.
00:22:20Here's your chance.
00:22:21Get on your knees.
00:22:22Say you're sorry.
00:22:24Maybe...
00:22:24Maybe I'll let you walk out.
00:22:26That's what I should be saying to you.
00:22:27You heard him.
00:22:28Get him!
00:22:39I want to know who's causing trouble in my tavern.
00:22:46Who's that?
00:22:47Lady Raven.
00:22:49She runs this place.
00:22:50Baron Rathburn.
00:22:52What brings you here?
00:22:54Raven.
00:22:55Long time.
00:22:56Saw a girl I liked in your place.
00:22:59Can't sleep without her.
00:23:01What do you want me to do, huh?
00:23:02That girl doesn't work for me.
00:23:04Don't make this difficult.
00:23:07Then you take her place tonight.
00:23:08How about that?
00:23:11And if I say no...
00:23:13Then give me your tavern.
00:23:14The shares.
00:23:16Let me run it.
00:23:17You want my little business?
00:23:18Fine.
00:23:19No problem.
00:23:20Really?
00:23:22But I'm not the only owner.
00:23:24Let me talk to Count Valerius.
00:23:27If he agrees, it's yours.
00:23:29Count Valerius.
00:23:30But I'm not the only owner.
00:23:33Let me talk to Count Valerius.
00:23:35If he agrees, it's yours.
00:23:37Count Valerius.
00:23:38Go ahead, lady.
00:23:39In this town, no one.
00:23:42Shut up!
00:23:47Raven.
00:23:48No need to bother the old man over something this small, right?
00:23:52Forget it.
00:23:53Matter's settled.
00:23:53Oh, thank the gods.
00:23:55She helped us.
00:23:56Then go.
00:23:58Slowly.
00:23:59I won't see you out.
00:24:02Let's go.
00:24:05I didn't say you could leave.
00:24:13What did you say?
00:24:15I said...
00:24:16I didn't say you could leave.
00:24:18Here's your chance.
00:24:19Everyone in your crew gets on their knees, apologizes to Tessa, or you lose a leg.
00:24:25Your choice.
00:24:26Raven.
00:24:27You see, I tried to play nice.
00:24:29This isn't on me.
00:24:31This young friend just came to town.
00:24:33Doesn't know how things work.
00:24:35An islander.
00:24:36Aldric.
00:24:37Let it go.
00:24:38For me.
00:24:38Do me this one favor.
00:24:40Why should I do you any favors?
00:24:43What are you doing?
00:24:43They have more orcs outside.
00:24:45Even Lady Raven couldn't stop them all.
00:24:46She got us out.
00:24:47Take Tessa and go.
00:24:49Duncan.
00:24:50You told me once.
00:24:51No matter what, you'd never let anyone hurt Tessa.
00:24:54What happened to that?
00:24:55It's not that simple.
00:24:56This is his territory.
00:24:57He knows every corner, every exit.
00:24:59We're in his backyard now.
00:25:00Sometimes you have to know when to walk away.
00:25:02I don't walk away.
00:25:03And they're nothing.
00:25:05Now you understand.
00:25:07I could crush you like an ant.
00:25:10Apologize.
00:25:10Crawl through my legs, maybe.
00:25:12Maybe I'll forgive you.
00:25:14I thought he was different.
00:25:21This is my apology.
00:25:27You, you hit me.
00:25:31You.
00:25:43My head!
00:25:45What are you waiting for?
00:25:47Kill him!
00:25:51Anyone touches him, they go through me.
00:25:54Duncan!
00:25:55He's my brother.
00:25:56I'm not leaving him.
00:26:01Come on, then.
00:26:03Still the same Duncan.
00:26:06Take Tessa.
00:26:07Go.
00:26:08I'll hold them.
00:26:09No need.
00:26:09I'm not done.
00:26:13I gave you a chance.
00:26:15You didn't take it.
00:26:18You gambling den bosses.
00:26:21Why can't you ever use your heads?
00:26:26Get him!
00:26:27Now!
00:26:28Move out!
00:26:31I'm not getting out.
00:26:35No.
00:26:40No.
00:26:41No!
00:26:45No!
00:26:48No!
00:26:50Go!
00:26:51No!
00:26:52No!
00:27:04You have all this money, couldn't you afford better Laggius?
00:27:09Call everyone, all my men, now!
00:27:18Call them, all of them, I want him dead!
00:27:25Stop them, don't let them call for reinforcements
00:27:31You're insane, do you know how many men he has outside?
00:27:37No, but my master taught me something, when you fight, you fight to win, you don't leave pieces behind to
00:27:42come after you later
00:27:43Get the civilians out, now!
00:27:50Please take care of Tessa, Lady Alara
00:27:55I'm not leaving you, Aldric!
00:27:57You're leaving with me, that's how you help him
00:28:11Who are those things?
00:28:16Rathfall's reinforcements, the whole damned crew
00:28:19That kid's finished, no one walks out of that
00:28:22Don't say that!
00:28:24Aldric won't lose
00:28:26He's a fraud, how can you still believe in him?
00:28:29Because he's never let me down
00:28:31Not once
00:28:34I believe him too
00:28:35We wait
00:28:36Together
00:28:40You hear me?
00:28:42My men are coming
00:28:44You're dead!
00:28:52Shut up
00:28:57You want him?
00:28:59You go through me
00:29:04Kill him!
00:29:32Tell Count Valerius
00:29:35There's a master mage here
00:29:37Yes, Lady Raven
00:29:38Is that all of them?
00:29:40No!
00:29:42I was hoping for a challenge
00:29:44That was incredible!
00:29:47You have to teach me!
00:29:49It's just magic
00:29:50Teach me, please!
00:30:01Master Corvus
00:30:03Destroy him
00:30:07Who's the old man?
00:30:10You don't know who I am?
00:30:14He's the Storm Fist
00:30:17The legendary
00:30:18Keep a low profile
00:30:21Storm Fist
00:30:23More like Storm Hair
00:30:24That's
00:30:25A lot of hair
00:30:27Young man
00:30:28You don't know what you're getting into
00:30:36Don't blame me if I hit too hard
00:30:42Oh, here we go
00:30:46Storm!
00:30:50I wasn't ready
00:30:52That's a sneak attack
00:30:53No honor
00:30:54Sorry
00:30:54I didn't know you weren't ready
00:30:57Try again
00:31:14Yeah!
00:31:16Yeah!
00:31:29That's impossible
00:31:31He broke through my mage armor
00:31:40Stop, please
00:31:42I surrender
00:31:42I give up
00:31:51You win
00:31:54Your turn
00:32:05Count Valerius is here
00:32:21Count Valerius
00:32:22He's the real owner of this place
00:32:24Who's that next to him?
00:32:26Master Silvanus
00:32:27Master of the Open Hand
00:32:29The strongest fighter in the town
00:32:30He's never lost
00:32:31Will Aldric be okay?
00:32:33Him?
00:32:34He couldn't even handle Rathbid's orcs
00:32:36Now Valerius is here
00:32:38Aldric's not walking out of there
00:32:39He brought this on himself
00:32:43Godris
00:32:44Go in there
00:32:46Talk to him
00:32:47Beg if you have to
00:32:47Me, Alara
00:32:48My own father
00:32:49Couldn't get Valerius to budge
00:32:51Unless
00:32:52Your grandfather came
00:32:53He won't come
00:32:54Then I'll go myself
00:32:55He's a nobody
00:32:56You'd risk making an enemy
00:32:57Of Count Valerius for him
00:32:58He's more of a man
00:32:59Than you'll ever be
00:32:59I'm coming too
00:33:03Aldric
00:33:04Let's see if you can get out of this one
00:33:11You two
00:33:12You trash my place
00:33:15And you think you can just walk out
00:33:17Count Valerius
00:33:19It's complicated
00:33:20Nothing complicated
00:33:22So Rathshed's mercenaries did this
00:33:26Rathshed disrespects me
00:33:27He wouldn't dare
00:33:32Is it him?
00:33:33Yes
00:33:33The Stormfist
00:33:3520 maybe 30 years of training
00:33:36All of it
00:33:37Wasted
00:33:38Who did this?
00:33:41Him
00:33:43So young
00:33:44And he defeated the Stormfist
00:33:48Impressive
00:33:49Who trained you?
00:33:51None of your business
00:33:54Don't think a little training
00:33:56Makes you invincible
00:33:57Arrogance is a slow poison
00:34:00It kills before the blade ever touches skin
00:34:02Are you done?
00:34:04There's nothing else we're leaving
00:34:05You think you can leave?
00:34:07What do you want?
00:34:08Count Valerius
00:34:08He saved us
00:34:09Can't we let this go?
00:34:11I know
00:34:12But they trashed my place
00:34:13Everyone knows the crown stag is mine
00:34:16If I let them walk out
00:34:18What does that say about me?
00:34:19What's your point?
00:34:20You and your friend
00:34:21Work for me
00:34:22Join my organization
00:34:24Duncan
00:34:25Thank the count
00:34:26He's offering you a place
00:34:27I'll work for you
00:34:28You saved me
00:34:29But Aldric is my brother
00:34:31I can't speak for him
00:34:32The count is powerful
00:34:33If you just
00:34:34No
00:34:35I am myself
00:34:36I don't belong to anyone
00:34:39Is that so?
00:34:40Yes
00:34:40Then you're not leaving
00:34:45Last chance, boy
00:34:47I don't need chances
00:34:50Skill, I admit that
00:34:52But Master Sylvanus is a master of the open hand
00:34:55Not just anyone can beat him
00:34:57I don't want to hurt a child
00:34:59Last chance
00:35:00Join Count Valerius
00:35:01Now
00:35:02I'll give you a way out
00:35:03I already said no
00:35:05Fine
00:35:06Then watch
00:35:08Bring them
00:35:14What are those for?
00:35:16Master Sylvanus will show you what real martial arts look like
00:35:22Tiger plounce
00:35:24Tiger pounce
00:35:27Crushing fist
00:35:30Crushing fist
00:35:35You think this is a joke?
00:35:36It's a circus act
00:35:38You should charge admission
00:35:40You'll regret that
00:35:48What is this?
00:35:50What have you done?
00:35:53Your hands are gone
00:35:54Open hand
00:36:00My turn
00:36:06My name is Aldrich
00:36:15Count Valerius
00:36:17I've failed you
00:36:18We'll meet again
00:36:19Let's go
00:36:24Aldrich is it?
00:36:26You've got skill
00:36:27Even Sylvanus couldn't touch you
00:36:29The young generation
00:36:30Terrifying
00:36:32Count Valerius
00:36:33Let this go
00:36:35Please
00:36:37So
00:36:37You still won't join me
00:36:39No
00:36:39Fine
00:36:40You've got spine
00:36:43But spine is useless
00:36:45When your friends ways brains are on the floor
00:36:52Your magic might save yourself
00:36:54But can it save him from point-blank range?
00:36:57One twitch of my man's finger in the friend's story ends
00:37:00So let's try again
00:37:01Join me
00:37:02Or watch him die
00:37:04Stop
00:37:07Don't worry
00:37:08I'm here
00:37:11Count Valerius
00:37:15You're Duke Aldrin's granddaughter
00:37:17Yes
00:37:18What do you want?
00:37:19I want you to release my friends
00:37:21Both of them?
00:37:23Both
00:37:23Ha!
00:37:24Lady Alara comes to ask for mercy
00:37:26How could I refuse?
00:37:29In this city
00:37:29No one refuses Duke Aldrin
00:37:31Thank you, Count Valerius
00:37:33But
00:37:35I gave your house what it wanted
00:37:36Now you give me what I want
00:37:38What do you mean?
00:37:40Your family's new trade route
00:37:42I want in
00:37:43I don't handle family business
00:37:45I can't
00:37:46Then you can't speak for your house, can you?
00:37:49So why should I do you any favors?
00:37:52Count Valerius
00:37:53Count Valerius
00:37:54Release my friends
00:37:56I'll remember this
00:37:57I'll find a way to repay you
00:37:59And how?
00:38:01I
00:38:03Sorry, I need to take this
00:38:14Wow, I suppose that's what they call Link
00:38:17Hello
00:38:18Aldric
00:38:19It's Silas
00:38:20Silas, what's going on?
00:38:22I learned yesterday that the Valerius family wanted to build a new castle right on top of your grandfather's grave
00:38:31They were going to relocate him
00:38:33And?
00:38:34Then I immediately spoke to the head of the Valerius family
00:38:37The cemetery stays untouched
00:38:39That's... that's great, thank you
00:38:41You saved my life, kid
00:38:43This is nothing
00:38:44And how do you feel now?
00:38:46The Needles should have done their work
00:38:47Getting better by the day
00:38:48I'm happy for you
00:38:50Aldric
00:38:51Oh, one more thing
00:38:56Aldric
00:38:56Oh, one more thing
00:38:59Do you know someone named Count Valerius?
00:39:03I know him, why?
00:39:04He's got a crossbow pointed at my best friend's head right now
00:39:07I'm trying to decide if I should let him live
00:39:09For your sake
00:39:16Aldric
00:39:17What are you saying?
00:39:19I'm thinking about letting him live
00:39:22Letting him live?
00:39:23He's the one with a cross show to Duncan's temple
00:39:25Aldric
00:39:25Please
00:39:26Just give him what he wants
00:39:28Duncan can't even breathe right now
00:39:30Aldric
00:39:30You don't have to pretend
00:39:33I'll talk to Lady Raven
00:39:34Maybe she can...
00:39:35What?
00:39:36Beg me to spare the poor old man?
00:39:38Aldric
00:39:39You've lost your mind
00:39:40He's Valerius crazy
00:39:42You're someone I bow to
00:39:43And he dares point a weapon at you
00:39:45Let me talk to him
00:39:46Let me see who you're talking to
00:39:49Who could possibly decide my...
00:39:52Give me the stone
00:39:54Be my guest
00:40:13Master Simus
00:40:15Sends his regards
00:40:18Of course Lord Simus
00:40:20It will never happen again
00:40:22I swear it
00:40:27I'm understanding
00:40:28That's all
00:40:29A simple misunderstanding
00:40:31Between gentlemen
00:40:33Put the crossbow down
00:40:35Now
00:40:40Lady Alara
00:40:41Please forgive this old fool
00:40:43Your friends are safe
00:40:44I give you my word
00:40:47Thank you for coming
00:40:48It's fine now
00:40:51Let's go
00:40:53Please
00:40:54Take your time
00:40:56My deepest apologies
00:40:57To all of you
00:41:02Who was that on the...
00:41:08Who was that on the crystal?
00:41:11Master Silas
00:41:12Master Silas?
00:41:13Which Master Silas?
00:41:14Silas Ravenweald
00:41:15The former royal archmage
00:41:17Practically the king's godfather
00:41:19Before he retired
00:41:20In this kingdom
00:41:22In this kingdom
00:41:22No one refuses Silas Ravenweald
00:41:24No one
00:41:25That young man
00:41:27He's not just some mage from an island
00:41:31You should get closer to him
00:41:33Much closer
00:41:34I'll keep that in mind
00:41:41Elara
00:41:42You're incredible
00:41:43Only you could have walked out of there
00:41:47She's an Aldwyn
00:41:48In this town
00:41:49Who says no to that name?
00:41:51Tessa
00:41:52Are you alright?
00:41:53That was terrifying
00:41:54Thank you lady
00:41:55Thank you lady Elara
00:41:55If you hadn't
00:41:57Two grown men
00:41:58Relying on a woman
00:42:00Pathetic
00:42:02That's enough
00:42:02You know who the real coward is
00:42:04Standing outside the whole time
00:42:06Won't you didn't lift it a finger?
00:42:08Elara it's late
00:42:09Let me take you home
00:42:11The streets aren't safe
00:42:12No
00:42:13I'm going home
00:42:14With Tessa
00:42:14Duncan
00:42:14And Aldraff
00:42:16I can't let you leave
00:42:17With commoners
00:42:19What would your father say?
00:42:21You don't answer
00:42:22To my father
00:42:24Let's go
00:42:28Elara
00:42:30Godfrey
00:42:33Don't contact me again
00:42:37Aldraff
00:42:37Aldraff
00:42:40You'll pay for this
00:42:48Master
00:42:49The plan failed
00:42:50There's this Aldraff
00:42:52He appeared beside Elara
00:42:53I couldn't get to her
00:42:54Useless
00:42:57What do we do?
00:42:58This man
00:42:59He seems to know things
00:43:01What if he discovers?
00:43:02Don't worry
00:43:06Our magic is invisible
00:43:08No one in this town
00:43:10Can see my magic
00:43:11And break it
00:43:11The soul-binding curse
00:43:13Seven days
00:43:15Then Duke Aldwyn dies
00:43:17House Aldwyn will be ours
00:43:19As for Elara
00:43:20She made her choice
00:43:22She dies too
00:43:26Master, please
00:43:27She's just
00:43:37Alara
00:43:38I'll say goodbye here
00:43:39Thank you for coming back for us
00:43:41Of course
00:43:42That's what friends do
00:43:44Aldraff
00:43:45Will you walk her home?
00:43:47The streets aren't safe
00:43:48Me?
00:43:50Please
00:43:51I don't trust anyone else with her
00:43:53Fine
00:44:03I'm glad you're back, man
00:44:12Let's go
00:44:16Why did you give Tessa to me tonight?
00:44:18Because I don't trust anyone else
00:44:21You trust me?
00:44:23Yes
00:44:30Who was that on the root stone?
00:44:31The one who made Valerius
00:44:33Dropped his knees
00:44:35A friend
00:44:36Just a friend
00:44:39You already knew who I was, didn't you?
00:44:42You asked me to take Tessa
00:44:43Because you knew she'd be safe with an Aldwyn
00:44:47You're very smart
00:44:49So Valerius wasn't doing me a favor
00:44:53He was doing your friend a favor
00:44:55Which means you're not just some islander
00:44:57Who wandered into town
00:44:59So
00:45:01Who are you, Aldraff?
00:45:05I'm your fiancé
00:45:06What?
00:45:11You're lying
00:45:16I'm not
00:45:17Hey
00:45:17Tell me the truth
00:45:19Something I don't know
00:45:20Something about you
00:45:21Alright
00:45:22I'm an islander
00:45:25I already knew that
00:45:26But that's a good start
00:45:28Okay, which island?
00:45:31Avalon
00:45:31Avalon?
00:45:33Isn't that where mages produce rune stones?
00:45:35The ones every noble carries
00:45:37And where many mages train
00:45:38In the middle of the island
00:45:40There's a mountain
00:45:41At the top of it
00:45:42Is where most of the kingdom's arcane energy rests
00:45:45Arcane energy?
00:45:46Yeah
00:45:47The source of magic
00:45:49The reason I can do what I do
00:45:51Oh
00:45:51I see
00:45:53So that's where you learned your magic
00:45:55That's why you can beat up all those orcs like they're nothing
00:45:58Oh
00:45:59This is me
00:46:03Give me your rune stone
00:46:04What?
00:46:06Come on
00:46:07Give it to me
00:46:18There
00:46:18We have a link now
00:46:23You can talk to me anytime you like
00:46:24Oh
00:46:26So that's how it works
00:46:28You could have told me earlier
00:46:30I could have showed off to your upper class friends
00:46:34They mean nothing
00:46:36All those titles
00:46:37All that posturing
00:46:38It's just noise
00:46:51What?
00:46:52What are you smiling at?
00:46:54You thought I was going to kiss you, didn't you?
00:46:57I did not
00:46:57Why are you standing so close?
00:46:59You don't like it?
00:47:00Fine
00:47:01I'll leave
00:47:02Wait
00:47:05What now?
00:47:13Bye
00:47:21Father
00:47:22Mother
00:47:24Is something wrong?
00:47:26Alara
00:47:26You said you weren't coming home this weekend
00:47:29The plans changed
00:47:30You're an old woman
00:47:32When you leave this house, you carry this house with you
00:47:35Do you think we enjoy sending guards to shadow you everywhere?
00:47:38There are people who would hurt this family, you know that
00:47:42Where were you tonight?
00:47:43Where were you tonight?
00:47:43I was with friends
00:47:44What friends?
00:47:46Godfrey
00:47:46Sir Godfrey
00:47:48The merchant's son?
00:47:49That's not so bad
00:47:50Godfrey
00:47:51He wants to marry up
00:47:53His house isn't worthy of ours
00:47:54He's still wealthy
00:47:55I'd rather her marry Godfrey than that island boy
00:47:58Island boy?
00:47:59Aldric?
00:48:00Sis
00:48:02You didn't know?
00:48:03Grandfather arranged a betrothal for you
00:48:05When you were little
00:48:06When you were little
00:48:07What?
00:48:12What?
00:48:13What are you smiling at?
00:48:15You thought I was going to kiss you, didn't you?
00:48:18I did not
00:48:19Why are you standing so close?
00:48:20You don't like it?
00:48:21Fine
00:48:22I'll leave
00:48:24Wait
00:48:26What now?
00:48:34Bye
00:48:43Father
00:48:43Mother
00:48:45Is something wrong?
00:48:47Alara
00:48:48You said you weren't coming home this weekend
00:48:50The plan's changed
00:48:51You're an old wind
00:48:53When you leave this house
00:48:54You carry this house with you
00:48:56Do you think we enjoy sending guards to shadow you everywhere?
00:48:59There are people who would hurt this family
00:49:01You know that
00:49:03Where were you tonight?
00:49:04I was with friends
00:49:05What friends?
00:49:07Godfrey
00:49:08Sir Godfrey
00:49:09The merchant's son?
00:49:11That's not so bad
00:49:12Godfrey
00:49:12He wants to marry up
00:49:14His house isn't worthy of ours
00:49:16He's still wealthy
00:49:17I'd rather her marry Godfrey than that island boy
00:49:19Island boy?
00:49:21Aldric?
00:49:22Sis
00:49:23You didn't know?
00:49:24Grandfather arranged a betrothal for you
00:49:27When you were little
00:49:28What?
00:49:31You don't believe me?
00:49:32Ask mother
00:49:34Your fiancé came by this morning
00:49:35But mommy sent him away
00:49:36You sent him away?
00:49:38Yes
00:49:39Your grandfather was furious
00:49:41Said the boy was someone who could help our house
00:49:43Demanded we find him
00:49:45Said if we didn't
00:49:46Your father would lose his place as heir
00:49:48And I would be sent back to my family
00:49:50What?
00:49:50I thought your grandfather was joking
00:49:53Until that little mage showed up at our door
00:49:55Mage?
00:49:57Aldric is a mage?
00:49:59No
00:50:00No
00:50:01It can't be Aldric
00:50:31If he were my fiancé
00:50:32To save himself
00:50:33I won't marry him
00:50:34I'll pick my own husband
00:50:36Quiet
00:50:38This isn't your choice
00:50:40If we find him there will be a betrothal ceremony
00:50:42Immediately
00:50:43This is unbelievable
00:50:45Why don't you care more about grandfather's illness?
00:50:47Instead of the status of my fiancé and your chances to inherit his states
00:50:50Enough
00:50:51Go to your room
00:50:53Go to your room
00:51:07Aldric
00:51:10Are you asleep?
00:51:12I was
00:51:13Now I'm not
00:51:14If someone tried to force you to marry a stranger
00:51:17What would you do?
00:51:18I'd marry her
00:51:19But what if he's old
00:51:21And ugly
00:51:22And cruel
00:51:23Not possible
00:51:24Not possible
00:51:25Your betrothed is handsome
00:51:26Charming
00:51:27Brilliant
00:51:28Practically a gift from the gods
00:51:31What luck you have
00:51:33You're impossible
00:51:35Hey actually
00:51:37I'm calling to ask a favor
00:51:39Go ahead
00:51:40I'm your fiancé
00:51:41I'll always be there to help
00:51:43Please stop joking Aldric
00:51:45My grandfather
00:51:46Is sick
00:51:47The healers can't help him
00:51:49You said you know powerful people
00:51:52Can you find someone to save him?
00:51:54No need for powerful people
00:51:55I'll come treat your grandpa tomorrow
00:51:58You?
00:51:59I know some healing magic
00:52:00I might be able to help
00:52:05Find the boy
00:52:06This is important
00:52:08Yes my lord
00:52:13Where are you going?
00:52:15Town business
00:52:17Contracts to review
00:52:24Well is it done?
00:52:26Don't worry
00:52:27He won't be seen in this town again
00:52:29That's not enough
00:52:31My lady
00:52:32Tomorrow send more men
00:52:35Make a show of it
00:52:38Let the old man think I'm trying
00:52:41So he won't send me away
00:52:45Yes my lady
00:52:52Lord Caelian
00:52:54We've done everything we can
00:52:56There must be something
00:52:58I'm sorry
00:53:00Prepare for the end
00:53:10There's no other way
00:53:12Name your price
00:53:14Anything
00:53:15It's not about money
00:53:16We
00:53:18Simply cannot cure this illness
00:53:37This isn't an illness
00:53:41It's a curse
00:53:49Who are you?
00:53:54Father this is my friend
00:53:55He's a mage
00:53:56A mage?
00:53:58What do you know about my father's condition?
00:54:00More than your physicians
00:54:02Someone has cast dark magic on this house
00:54:05Your father's life is being fed to a curse
00:54:10Dark magic
00:54:12You expect us to believe that?
00:54:13He's not lying
00:54:14He saved my life
00:54:16He probably arranged the whole thing
00:54:19Made himself look like a hero
00:54:20Think about it
00:54:21Your trade deals have been failing
00:54:23Your family has been falling ill
00:54:25Everything has been getting worse
00:54:32How do you know that?
00:54:34Please father
00:54:35Let him try
00:54:36With respect my lord
00:54:38This boy is talking about curses and dark magic
00:54:40If such things could heal people
00:54:42There would be no need for physicians
00:54:43I'm not using magic to heal him
00:54:45I'm using medicine
00:54:47Where did you study?
00:54:49Which academy?
00:54:51I didn't
00:54:52You never studied medicine
00:54:54You have no training
00:54:55Throw this fraud out
00:54:58Uncle
00:54:59He's fooling you
00:55:00Can't you see that?
00:55:02I'll take responsibility
00:55:03You
00:55:05You're altering
00:55:08This is the betrothed
00:55:12He changed his clothes
00:55:15Cut his hair
00:55:17I didn't recognize him
00:55:20You're
00:55:20My betrothed
00:55:24Don't believe anything he says
00:55:26He's after our money
00:55:27An island boy
00:55:28Trying to impress you
00:55:30There's been a misunderstanding
00:55:31I trust him
00:55:33You're naive
00:55:36Don't insult him
00:55:38You took the money
00:55:39Two million gold
00:55:41And you
00:55:42Still came back
00:55:44I never took your money
00:55:45You're lying
00:55:46Marcus gave it to you
00:55:47I
00:55:48Never
00:55:49Saw your money
00:55:51But I did see your assassins
00:55:55I
00:55:55I only told Marcus to scare you
00:55:58Not
00:55:59Not to
00:56:16What is she talking about?
00:56:19Assassins
00:56:20Marcus must have acted on his own
00:56:22I never
00:56:23I'll pay you two million
00:56:25Consider the matter closed
00:56:28You want to forget it?
00:56:29I don't
00:56:30What do you want?
00:56:31Aldrich, please
00:56:33Just look at my grandfather
00:56:34There's been a misunderstanding
00:56:37I think some people in this house
00:56:39Don't want him to get better
00:56:45Guards
00:56:46Remove this man
00:56:48Try it
00:56:54Father
00:56:56Father
00:56:58Grandfather
00:57:00You're Thomas' boy?
00:57:02Yes
00:57:03You said you could save me
00:57:05I can
00:57:08He's a fraud
00:57:09Quiet
00:57:12I trust him
00:57:14Let him try
00:57:21It's like
00:57:22A final burst of life
00:57:24Before the end
00:57:26What are you smiling at?
00:57:28You're a fool
00:57:32Talking about
00:57:34Assassins
00:57:34Marcus must have acted on his own
00:57:37I never
00:57:38I'll pay you two million
00:57:40Consider the matter closed
00:57:42You want to forget it?
00:57:44I don't
00:57:45What do you want?
00:57:46Aldrich, please
00:57:47Just look at my grandfather
00:57:49There's been a misunderstanding
00:57:52I think some people in this house
00:57:54Don't want him to get better
00:58:00Guards
00:58:01Remove this man
00:58:03Try it
00:58:09Father
00:58:10Father
00:58:13Grandfather
00:58:15You're Thomas' boy?
00:58:17Yes
00:58:18You said you could save me
00:58:20I
00:58:39Can
00:58:42He's a fraud
00:58:43Quiet
00:58:46I trust him
00:58:47Let him try
00:58:54It's like
00:58:55A final burst of life
00:58:57Before the end
00:58:59What are you smiling at?
00:59:02You're a fool
00:59:05You think you can do better?
00:59:07Yes
00:59:07With what?
00:59:09Needles
00:59:11Needles
00:59:11That's all
00:59:12The finest healers in the kingdom
00:59:14Couldn't save him
00:59:15What makes you think you can?
00:59:16They couldn't
00:59:17That doesn't mean I can't
00:59:18Let him try
00:59:19My father's condition can't wait
00:59:21If he makes things worse
00:59:22We won't be responsible
00:59:23Fine
00:59:24If I fail
00:59:25I'll take the blame
00:59:27And if I succeed
00:59:29You won't
00:59:30Young man
00:59:32If you cure Duke Uldwidge
00:59:34I'll become your student
00:59:35So will I
00:59:37And if you cure him
00:59:38I'll sweep the path before you
00:59:40And welcome you into this house
00:59:43Here
00:59:48His life is draining
00:59:50This is
00:59:51The soul binding curse
00:59:53What's that?
00:59:54An old spell
00:59:55It traps the victim's soul
00:59:57Feeds on their life force
00:59:59Within seven days
01:00:01The victim's spirit is destroyed
01:00:03Who would want to kill grandfather?
01:00:06You expect us to believe this
01:00:08Believe what you want
01:00:10Do you believe this?
01:00:12Yes
01:00:13You can't just
01:00:13You don't want him to wake up
01:00:17Of course I do
01:00:19Then let me work
01:00:29Ok
01:00:31It magical
01:00:31Wait
01:00:31You
01:00:31You
01:00:45Someone
01:00:49You
01:00:50Is this, is this real?
01:00:53You're insane.
01:00:56Nothing happened.
01:00:58He's a fraud, I told you.
01:01:00You were so confident.
01:01:01And now?
01:01:03Arrest him!
01:01:04Wait!
01:01:08He's awake.
01:01:09Duke Alderwind is awake!
01:01:16I walked through death's door
01:01:18and came back.
01:01:21A miracle.
01:01:23You saved me.
01:01:25Rest now, Grandfather.
01:01:29Rest.
01:01:30As you say.
01:01:35Master Eldrick,
01:01:36your technique,
01:01:38where did you learn it?
01:01:39I taught myself.
01:01:41Remarkable.
01:01:42Come work for me.
01:01:44I'll make you a specialist.
01:01:46Top pay.
01:01:47I have no license.
01:01:49I'll handle it.
01:01:53Master Aldrick,
01:01:55teach me.
01:01:57Please.
01:01:58He's an honored professor.
01:01:59I don't care about titles.
01:02:01Your skill speaks for itself.
01:02:06Fine.
01:02:07I'll take you.
01:02:10But you!
01:02:13You can send yourself a banner.
01:02:15Write on it.
01:02:17I am a fool.
01:02:20Is my father cured?
01:02:22I broke the curse.
01:02:23But the caster will notice.
01:02:25And when he does,
01:02:26he'll try something more desperate.
01:02:29Can't we find out who's behind all this?
01:02:31The curse caster?
01:02:32There is a way.
01:02:34But first,
01:02:35I need to know something.
01:02:38Who in this house knows your birth chart?
01:02:41Only family.
01:02:42Caelan,
01:02:43Alara,
01:02:44and Marius.
01:02:47Lord Marius.
01:02:47Understood.
01:02:49I'll find the curse caster.
01:02:51Very soon.
01:02:52Duke Aldwin,
01:02:53may I speak with you privately?
01:02:56Leave us.
01:03:03You have questions for me?
01:03:05My grandfather.
01:03:07How did he die?
01:03:11He went to the capital.
01:03:13Before he left,
01:03:14he came to me.
01:03:15Told me to protect you
01:03:16if he didn't return.
01:03:21Your family's murder,
01:03:23your grandfather's death,
01:03:25it's all connected.
01:03:27Years ago,
01:03:28House Aldwin was nearly destroyed.
01:03:31I fled to the capital alone.
01:03:33I was dying.
01:03:35Your grandfather,
01:03:36Thomas Cael,
01:03:37saved me.
01:03:38House Cael was the wealthiest
01:03:39in the capital.
01:03:41With his protection,
01:03:43my enemies couldn't touch me.
01:03:45So,
01:03:46I rebuilt my house.
01:03:47What happened to House Cael?
01:03:49Twenty years ago,
01:03:51it vanished.
01:03:53Overnight.
01:03:54I don't know how.
01:03:55I don't know why.
01:03:56Later,
01:03:58your grandfather's came to this town with you.
01:04:01He left,
01:04:02he was never seen again.
01:04:04I felt indebted to your grandfather.
01:04:07So I arranged the betrothal.
01:04:09And I made a will.
01:04:11When you marry Alara,
01:04:13half of House Oldway's wealth
01:04:15will be yours.
01:04:22How did grandfather die?
01:04:23He must have found something.
01:04:26Someone killed him for it.
01:04:28Who destroyed my family?
01:04:29I don't know.
01:04:31But they weren't mortal.
01:04:33House Cael was too powerful
01:04:34to fall to ordinary men.
01:04:37You come from that world.
01:04:39The world of magic.
01:04:41You know I'm telling the truth.
01:04:45What do you suggest?
01:04:47I think they offended a shadow archmast.
01:04:49And I was cursed
01:04:51because they discovered
01:04:52my connection to your grandfather.
01:04:55Marry Alara.
01:04:57Quickly.
01:04:58Before I die.
01:04:59I can't.
01:05:00Not yet.
01:05:02Why?
01:05:02I have to avenge my family first.
01:05:05We can talk about marriage later.
01:05:08Now that I know House Alden
01:05:09and House Cael
01:05:10share the same enemy.
01:05:12That's enough for now.
01:05:13Do you suspect someone?
01:05:14I'll handle it.
01:05:23Duke Oldwind.
01:05:25The potion is ready.
01:05:26You have my thanks.
01:05:31I was wrong about you.
01:05:33When you're well, my lord,
01:05:34I'll arrange the wedding.
01:05:36I should go.
01:05:39I'll visit every day.
01:05:48Shadow Archmaster,
01:05:49the curse on my father
01:05:50has been broken
01:05:51by some young mage
01:05:52called Aldric.
01:05:53No worries.
01:05:54I'll cast another one.
01:05:56A stronger one.
01:05:57I could see Marrya's heart race
01:05:59whenever I mention the traitor.
01:06:01And through this runestone link,
01:06:02I can see where
01:06:03the Shadow Archmeist is.
01:06:05Murderer of my family.
01:06:08I finally found you.
01:06:21You came.
01:06:25You knew I would.
01:06:26I hoped you would.
01:06:28You have power,
01:06:30Aldric of House Cael.
01:06:32More than your father.
01:06:33More than your grandfather.
01:06:36You knew them.
01:06:37I killed them.
01:06:40House Cael was wealthy.
01:06:42Powerful.
01:06:43But they had something I needed.
01:06:45A runestone.
01:06:46To speak with dead masters.
01:06:48To enhance my power.
01:06:51They wouldn't give it to me.
01:06:52So I took everything else.
01:06:54You murdered my family.
01:06:56I removed an obstacle.
01:06:58That runestone is in your pocket.
01:07:00Give it to me.
01:07:01Join me.
01:07:02Your power and mine.
01:07:04We could rule everything.
01:07:05I'd rather die
01:07:06than share my friend's gift with you.
01:07:08That can be arranged.
01:07:24Impressive.
01:07:26But not enough.
01:07:37You're strong.
01:07:39But you're young.
01:07:41You haven't learned to control your power.
01:07:43Last chance.
01:07:45Join me.
01:07:47No.
01:07:48My turn.
01:08:12This isn't over.
01:08:15I'll return.
01:08:21For my family.
01:08:32Marius.
01:08:34You cursed me.
01:08:36You conspired with the Shadow Archmeist.
01:08:38You tried to destroy this house.
01:08:42Do you have anything to say for yourself?
01:08:47I did it for you.
01:08:49For your approval.
01:08:51For you to finally see me.
01:08:53But you never saw me.
01:08:54Only Caelian.
01:08:55The heir.
01:08:57The good son.
01:08:58I was nothing to you.
01:09:01I'm sorry, father.
01:09:03I'm so sorry.
01:09:07Under the laws of this house,
01:09:08the punishment for treason is death.
01:09:11But you are my son.
01:09:12And I cannot kill my son.
01:09:15What do you suggest?
01:09:16Exile.
01:09:17He leaves the kingdom.
01:09:19Never returns.
01:09:21If he does,
01:09:22he dies.
01:09:24Do you accept?
01:09:27Yes.
01:09:28Then it's done.
01:09:31Take him to the border.
01:09:33Make sure he crosses.
01:09:35And make sure he never comes back.
01:09:38The Shadow Archmeist is still out there.
01:09:41He'll come for you.
01:09:42He's already dead.
01:09:49I've lost a son today.
01:09:51You've gained a chance.
01:09:53No.
01:09:55Let's talk about your reward.
01:10:04You've saved my life.
01:10:06You've saved my house.
01:10:08You avenged your family.
01:10:11Name what you want.
01:10:12Anything.
01:10:15I want to earn her.
01:10:20Earn her.
01:10:21I don't want her handed to me like a prize.
01:10:23I want to prove that I'm worthy of her.
01:10:30You already have.
01:10:32Do you accept him?
01:10:37I do.
01:10:39I do.
01:10:54No, no.
01:10:56No, no.
01:10:58If I believe that I can feel.
01:11:06If I can hurt it, I can feel.
01:11:10I don't want her.
01:11:10No, no.
01:11:13My heart will break apart.
01:11:16Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today.
01:11:25Do you, Aldric of House Kale, take this woman to be your wife?
01:11:30I do.
01:11:32Do you, Ellara of House Aldwyn, take this man to be your husband?
01:11:36I do.
01:11:37Then by the power vested in me, I pronounce you husband and wife!
01:11:54To the happy couple!
01:11:58Are you happy?
01:12:00I'm content, which is more than I ever expected.
01:12:09That's not an answer.
01:12:10It's the only one I have.
01:12:16No, no, never let go
01:12:21Now we feel the same
01:12:24And I'm like heaven and hell
01:12:28Holding your mind
