Short filmTranscript
00:00:15Congratulations, my lady. A beautiful girl.
00:00:18By the way, your High Priestess Deloria also delivered a daughter just now.
00:00:23Your daughter will have a little pantyon.
00:00:25Let me see her.
00:00:32What a lovely coincidence. Put both girls in the same room together.
00:00:36I want them raised side by side.
00:00:38As you wish, my lady.
00:00:42The Grey of Chaos.
00:00:45Are these the eyes from the prophecy that can unmake the power of the old gods?
00:00:53Her name will be Athena.
00:00:56Clean her up and let her rest for now.
00:01:07My daughter. I want to see her.
00:01:18Oh, forget it, Deloria. What if we get caught?
00:01:23Hera's dead asleep. Zeus is fooling around in the mortal world. It's just us. You're such a coward.
00:01:29If they find out, they'll lock us up in Tartarus forever. Or turn us into monsters.
00:01:34But if it works, my daughter will be a full goddess, worshipped by all.
00:01:39Look at these cribs. My daughter will not spend eternity serving Hera's brat.
00:01:44Th-then, what about her real daughter?
00:01:47I'll keep Hera's little stinker. Torment her every day.
00:01:51All the humiliation Hera's put me through, she'll get it back tenfold.
00:01:55And Hera will dole on my daughter. Treat her own flesh and blood like dirt.
00:02:09Who's there?
00:02:18Must have been the wind.
00:02:32Doloria, my most trusted high priestess. I loved you like a sister. But you hate me so much that you'd
00:02:42keep my child and torture her.
00:02:45Thank heavens I came in time. My little one. No one is going to hurt you. No one is ever
00:02:51going to take you away from me.
00:02:55Deloria, I won't expose you tonight. But it's not out of mercy, no. I'll let you goat and relish in
00:03:01your victory. Then I'll send you straight to hell.
00:03:17Deloria, I won't expose you tonight.
00:03:18Giant! By Zeus' command, I will hereby destroy you for marching on Mount Olympus!
00:03:52What? No!
00:04:00How is he so strong? I can't move my legs at all.
00:04:08No! Athena's in danger! Go! Take the hit for her!
00:04:11No! I'm scared!
00:04:26Hilda!
00:04:35Insolent fools!
00:04:36You march on Olympus and lay a hand on my daughter! I'm not dead yet!
00:04:43Father!
00:05:01Athena, well done. Keep pushing yourself.
00:05:05Yes, father!
00:05:09Athena! Athena! Athena!
00:05:12My Athena. My proudest accomplishment.
00:05:15Your Majesty!
00:05:18How can you let Lady Athena do something so dangerous? Fighting four giants alone? She's only 18! She could have
00:05:26died!
00:05:27Don't blame my mother. I volunteered. Even so, that doesn't mean you-
00:05:31Deloria, you don't really get a say in this. You just shoved your own daughter into the battlefield. She could
00:05:36have died.
00:05:44Hilda. You're her mother. You should be more concerned for her than for my Athena. Your Majesty, I'm just training
00:05:50her.
00:05:54Hilda was born to serve and protect Lady Athena. She's a nobody. If she died protecting Lady Athena, it would
00:06:01be her greatest honor.
00:06:03Mother, I-
00:06:07Shut up! I told you to save Athena, and you shook like a scared little chick. Zeus himself had to
00:06:13step in to save you!
00:06:15Can't even get this little thing right. Useless.
00:06:20Oh, Hera, when you find out Hilda is yours... God, I can't wait.
00:06:27Deloria, you've been gleefully tormenting that girl every day, thinking she's my spawn. But that's your own daughter.
00:06:35Worthless little wretch! I tried my best with you for 18 years, and you're still good for nothing! It must
00:06:42be your bloodline!
00:06:43Enough. You're hitting your child in public. Have some decorum.
00:06:49Oh, your Majesty, I just can't bear it! All I asked was for her to take one hit for Lady
00:06:56Athena, and she melted into a puddle!
00:07:00That giant should have just killed her. One less problem.
00:07:04That's your own flesh and blood, Doloria. Every time you hurt her, you're driving another nail into your coffin.
00:07:10All right. Both girls are alive. That's what matters. Athena, take Hilda and get her wounds treated.
00:07:17Hilda doesn't deserve that, your Majesty! That's just in approach!
00:07:22Of course. It's okay, Hilda. My mother has your back. Let's go.
00:07:35You all saw Athena in battle today. It was her first official deployment. She's only 18, and already a victor!
00:07:43Hera, you raised her well.
00:07:47The talent is hers. But the giant's retreat is temporary.
00:07:51Gaia will return. When she does, we'll need more strength. Real strength.
00:07:56Athena's 18th birthday reeds in three days.
00:07:59I, Zeus, king of the gods, will personally forfohe her with the divine seat as the goddess of wisdom.
00:08:05She'll be one of the 12 Olympians, and lead the gods to crush Gaia!
00:08:11Athena, Athena, Athena, goddess of wisdom!
00:08:16My daughter, soon to be a goddess of the 12. When that day comes, I'll claim her in front of
00:08:22everyone. My status will rise with hers.
00:08:25As for Hera, ha! Deceiving the king of the gods, muddying the divine bloodline, raising a fake daughter for 18
00:08:32years.
00:08:34Zeus's fury will destroy her.
00:08:36So this is what you've been waiting for, your moment of glory. No, Doloraria.
00:08:43You'll realize that you've been destroying your own child, with your own hands, for the last 18 years.
00:09:00Come on, get undressed. Let's bathe.
00:09:03This place, it's too lavish. I'm filthy. Mother will punish me if I...
00:09:07The water comes from a sacred spring at the mountain's summit. My mother brought it here herself.
00:09:12And it's always flowing, so you won't get it dirty.
00:09:19Athena, please! Don't be mad!
00:09:34It's just a bath, Hilda! You deserve to bath as much as I do!
00:09:49Put this on.
00:09:50Oh, I can't. It's too beautiful. My mother will beat me if she sees me in that.
00:09:55Nonsense. Your mother gave it to me. I've never worn it. Now I'm giving it to you.
00:10:00Consider it a birthday present.
00:10:03It'll be my birthday in two days. Yours, too. We're turning 18.
00:10:08We should celebrate together.
00:10:18Is that me?
00:10:20I knew it would suit you.
00:10:26Mother!
00:10:30That dress suits you perfectly, Hilda. I made these myself.
00:10:35One for Athena, one for you. Wear them at your coming-of-age rides in two days.
00:10:40Oh, Hilda! You look even more beautiful now!
00:10:44Lady Hera, if only you were my mother!
00:10:49You little wretch! You can't wear that! I gave that dress to Lady Athena!
00:11:05Stop it. I told her to wear the dress. You want to hit me?
00:11:15You're too kind, Lady Athena. But you shouldn't have to cover for her. She's not worthy.
00:11:20Lady, you make me sick.
00:11:25Dolorea, stop!
00:11:29Immediately, you're frightening my daughter!
00:11:34Forgive me, Lady Athena. I got carried away. I just... I care about you so much. Please don't be frightened.
00:11:41I'd never hurt you.
00:11:42Get up! Stop making a scene! Just wait until we get home, worthless girl!
00:11:53Mother, isn't Hilda Dolorea's daughter? How can anyone treat their own child like their nemesis?
00:11:59Maybe there's been some kind of misunderstanding between them.
00:12:17High Priestess, Dolorea!
00:12:22Dolorea, today is Hilda's birthday, too.
00:12:25Whatever she might have done, you can't bring her to the Hall of the Olympians looking like this.
00:12:30At least, take her to the Healer first.
00:12:33Your Majesty, Hilda had to be disciplined. If she offends your eyes, we can lock her in the side chamber.
00:12:40She won't interfere with Lady Athena's ceremony.
00:12:43That's not what I meant. I'm your High Priestess, Your Majesty, so my daughter Hilda is beneath Lady Athena, naturally.
00:12:50After today's ceremony, the difference in their status will only be more pronounced. Hilda needs to understand where she stands.
00:12:56Enough! We don't meddle with Family Matters.
00:13:00Gods, take your seats. The ceremony is starting. Athena?
00:13:07I've waited 18 years for this. The moment Athena gets elevated, I'll reveal everything to all the gods here.
00:13:16Athena, come forward.
00:13:19Yes, Father.
00:13:24Who's that? Why is Lady Athena holding hands with that filthy wench? Disgraceful!
00:13:28That cursed bloodline. Dolorea is a High Priestess for God's sake. How come her daughter looks like that?
00:13:33Yes. Keep going. Every bit of contempt you'll feel for Hilda now, you'll feel the same for Hera when the
00:13:39truth comes out.
00:13:40Father, Mother, Athena, come forth to receive your embristment.
00:13:45Athena, born 18 years ago at the summit of Olympus. Three days ago in the Battle of the Giants, her
00:13:51valour was witnessed by every god present.
00:13:53I, Zeus, king of the gods, bestow upon you the divine seat of Goddess of Wisdom. From this day forward,
00:14:02you are one of the twelve Olympians. Eternal life, undying glory, and your own dominion.
00:14:15Athena, my daughter, goddess of wisdom. May you be the light for all who seek it. May you know glory.
00:14:24Athena, goddess of wisdom. Athena, goddess of wisdom.
00:14:29My daughter, my real daughter. She's one of the twelve Olympians now.
00:14:37Lady Athena, a gift for your coming of age.
00:14:45Thank you, Dolorea.
00:14:47Dolorea, it's also Hilda's birthday. Do you not have a gift for her?
00:14:50Of course. I have something very special for Hilda.
00:14:53Lady Athena, you are not Hera's daughter. You are mine.
00:14:57Eighteen years ago, Hera and I gave birth on the same day.
00:15:00A handmaid had mixed up the babies. I only discovered this today.
00:15:05What?
00:15:07Dolorea, you've no idea what you're talking about.
00:15:10Dolorea, you're standing in my hall in front of every god in Olympias claiming my daughter isn't my blood.
00:15:16What evidence do you have?
00:15:18This is no joking matter.
00:15:20Certainly, your majesty. I have a witness.
00:15:24Bring her in.
00:15:28I was the nursery attendant eighteen years ago.
00:15:31That night, after I bathed both of them, I wrapped them in the wrong blankets.
00:15:37By the time I realized, both ladies had already taken the babies back themselves.
00:15:42Unforgivable! You have tainted the divine bloodline! Prepare to die!
00:15:49Oh Lord Zeus, killing her won't change anything now.
00:15:54And as it stands, Athena grew up beside Hera and was raised to become one of the twelve.
00:16:00And I raised Hilde. Fair and square.
00:16:04Fair! Dolivea, look what you've done to Hilda!
00:16:08I had no choice.
00:16:10If only Hilda had half of Athena's abilities.
00:16:14I'd never lay a hand on her.
00:16:16Athena, my daughter.
00:16:18I'll make it up to you, starting today.
00:16:21Every bit of love that I owe you, for the last eighteen years.
00:16:25No! No way!
00:16:27Mother, tell me it's not true!
00:16:30I!
00:16:31I am your mother, Athena!
00:16:34Not her!
00:16:35You've called the wrong woman Mother for eighteen years.
00:16:39It's time we fix it!
00:16:42Go on! Back to your real parents!
00:16:47I'm Lady Hera's daughter?
00:16:51That's Hera's real daughter.
00:16:52Covered in wounds, no shoes, flinching like a beaten stray.
00:16:57Hera lives in queenly luxury, while her own child gets knocked around in a priestess house.
00:17:02Eighteen years, and she's never even noticed some mother.
00:17:05Eighteen years, Hera!
00:17:06Hera, you're the queen of the gods, and you didn't even know your own child was taken!
00:17:11You have no right to sit on that throne!
00:17:18Zeus, that's merely her claim.
00:17:21I don't believe the babies were switched.
00:17:23Your Majesty! The witness has confessed! You can't deny that!
00:17:30One maid's testimony doesn't settle anything. A priestess' bloodline can't possibly produce
00:17:35Athena's gifts. That kind of power and valor can come from the king and queen of the gods.
00:17:39Right. Obviously. Athena's warrior instincts, her innate wisdom and fearlessness, she's clearly mine.
00:17:44So, instead of letting that maid decide our daughter's destiny, summon the fates.
00:17:49Let them send a divine varenict. The truth will prevail.
00:17:53Yes! The fates are gods above gods, the all-seeing masters of destiny. Only they can settle this.
00:17:59Your Majesty! Summoning the fates for a divine verdict? That's a bit much!
00:18:03No, the fates weave the destiny of everything in existence. They hardly have time for a little
00:18:08bloodline dispute. The divine bloodline of Zeus is not a little dispute. Clarifying bloodlines is
00:18:14entirely within the fates' authority. They won't be offended. But-
00:18:18Enough! Summon the fates' oracle.
00:18:23Lord Zeus, Lady Hera, you call upon the Eye of Destiny.
00:18:28There is a bloodline, a bloodline dispute. We need the fates to send a divine varenict,
00:18:34and reveal the truth.
00:18:42Fates, we humbly ask you to open your eyes.
00:18:48Give us the truth.
00:19:05Fates say, blood will be the witness. Sun and moon will be the judge. The mother of Athena is...
00:19:17The fates said, heir of the king, born of the queen. Blood will be the witness. Sun and moon will
00:19:25be the judge. The light of wisdom springs from thunder.
00:19:28The mother of Athena is...
00:19:36Keep reading, Hera.
00:19:38No, no way. Athena is my daughter. I brought her back myself. How can it be?
00:19:45Why did you stop, Lady Hera? What does the divine varenict say? Unless you don't like what it says?
00:19:52Hera, what does it say?
00:19:55If you can't bring yourself to read it, I'll do it!
00:19:59The mother of Athena...
00:20:04...is...
00:20:05...Dolorea!
00:20:09Dolorea? Lady Athena's mother is Dolorea? The divine verdict says so. The fates are never wrong.
00:20:16Then Hilda... Hilda's Lady Hera's real daughter? No, that's not right. The divine verdict said I was born of the
00:20:23queen and heir of the king. How can it be?
00:20:26I really am? Lady Hera's daughter? No one's beating me again. I'll get to live in Lady Hera's palace. I'll
00:20:34get to dress like Athena.
00:20:35The fates have spoken.
00:20:37Lord Zeus, now that the truth is revealed, I ask you to return Athena to me, and Hilda to Lady
00:20:45Hera. Let everything return to their rightful course.
00:20:54Wait. I refuse. What if... What if the divine verdict of the fates was wrong?
00:21:01Your Majesty, I understand how you feel. It's hard for me, too. Hilda called me mother for 18 years. But
00:21:07facts are facts. The fates have spoken. The longer we drag this out, the more harm it does to both
00:21:11girls.
00:21:12Hera, the fates' divine verdict is never wrong. My own child spent 18 years in the wrong house, and instead
00:21:18of fixing this immediately, you're defying the fates? Unbelievable!
00:21:23Did Dolorea find out I switched the babies back? So she switched them again? Why would the divine verdict favor
00:21:28her?
00:21:30Now that your Majesty has accepted reality, let's swap the girls right now!
00:21:40Mother?
00:21:43Athena! My child! Come home with me!
00:21:48Mother will make up for it. Everything I owe you from these 18 years.
00:21:53Mother! Tell me this isn't true. You're my real mother?
00:21:56Dolorea! Even if the divine verdict's true, we don't have to swap them. Athena's still a real daughter to me.
00:22:04If you don't want Hilda, I'll take her, too. I'll raise them both. But you can't take Athena.
00:22:12I don't want to leave Lady Hera, either!
00:22:14Athena! You won't claim me because I'm just a priestess? You little snob! Guess that's how Hera raised you these
00:22:21last 18 years!
00:22:22Snob? Look at what you've done to Hilda! Of course Athena's afraid! Look at that child!
00:22:29Beaten and scolded every day, covered in wounds, dressed in rags! You're trying to kill her!
00:22:35I can't give you Athena! What if you do the same thing to her?
00:22:38Your Majesty, now you're being unfair. I've always adored Athena. All those gifts I gave her over the years.
00:22:44As for Hilda, Your Majesty, you don't know her like I do. She's been stealing and lying since she was
00:22:49a child. Filthy habits! I hit her because nothing else worked!
00:22:52And honestly, I've always wondered. I'm a disciplined, capable woman. How did I end up with such a lousy daughter?
00:22:58It makes sense now. She isn't mine.
00:23:01She has a point. Hilda looks like a scared little mouse, and Lady Hera's famously jealous and petty. Maybe it's
00:23:07just the bloodline!
00:23:08Who'd have thought Lady Hera's priestess was the one who produced a prodigy? Quite the silver blinding, though. Lady Athena
00:23:13was raised with a silver scroon, and now has a seat among the twelve.
00:23:16Hilda's had nothing but misery with you since she was born. That broke her. Not some innate flaw.
00:23:22Enough!
00:23:25Hera, you're the Queen of the Gods. It's embarrassing enough that our child was switched at birth, and you were
00:23:31blissfully unaware for eighteen years. And now that the truth is out, you're brawling like a common market woman. Shame!
00:23:46I declare this matter settled. Hera, give Athena back to Dolorea, and take Hilda home. Immediately. My name won't be
00:23:56dragged through the mud anymore.
00:23:59Your name? My child's being taken from me, and that's all you care about? Of course. You've barely cared to
00:24:06spend a second with Athena in the last eighteen years.
00:24:09I'm busy. With all the affairs of Divine Realm, that's why I left her entirely in your care.
00:24:15You lost track of our child. Do not blame me!
00:24:20The Divine Realm. Ha! I know exactly what's keeping you busy. Making one little basket after another.
00:24:30You say I didn't notice the swift, neither did you. Eighteen years, you did absolutely nothing. Now you want to
00:24:36call the shots?
00:24:47I'm Zeus, the King of the Gods! What I say on this mountain is law! Hera, you will regret defying
00:24:54me in front of everyone!
00:24:58Mother...
00:24:59Effective immediately, Athena goes to Dolorea. Hera, you take Hilda home and raise her properly. And do not leave the
00:25:06palace until she's in better shape!
00:25:08You're... you're putting me under house arrest?
00:25:10And if I am, you should be grateful there are witnesses here today. If you weren't the Queen, I would
00:25:15have killed you a thousand times over!
00:25:25Lord Zeus, thank you for upholding justice for my daughter and myself. My gratitude knows no bounds.
00:25:31Dolorea, you'll be granted a sum of recompation and the honorary title of Mother of an Olympian.
00:25:38To make up for the eighteen years you were separated from your real doctor, and as a reward for Athena's
00:25:44valor in the paddle.
00:25:45But, for the sake of my name, do not spread this any further. Nothing that was said today will leave
00:25:50Olympus. Not the mortal world or the underworld, are we clear?
00:25:53Perfectly clear. It's what's best for Mount Olympus. I'll be nothing but discreet.
00:26:00Athena, come. Let's go home.
00:26:06Oh, sweetheart. I know you need time.
00:26:10But you heard what Lord Zeus said. It's alright. We'll go home. And take it slow. You'll come around.
00:26:17No! Hyra is my mother! I...
00:26:19Go with her, Athena.
00:26:21What do you mean, Mother? Thank you, Your Majesty. You've raised her so well. She's in good hands now. And
00:26:29I trust you'll sort Hilda out.
00:26:31I have to be tactful. Zeus is embarrassed, so he won't budge. Dolorea has the Divine Verictict. The gods won't
00:26:38side with me.
00:26:39But there's one more thing.
00:26:41I have one request. Let me say a few words to Athena, before she leaves.
00:26:46She was my daughter for eighteen years.
00:26:48Of course. Whatever you need, Your Majesty.
00:26:51Athena and I will always be grateful to you.
00:26:53Nothing you say will change anything now. You're done.
00:27:06I just need to know. Was the Divine Verdict wrong, or was it me? These eyes will tell the truth.
00:27:17Oh, it is, is you, Athena. You are my daughter.
00:27:24I knew it. The Divine Verdict was wrong. You're my daughter. My flesh and blood.
00:27:34Is it really true, Mother? I'm yours? After all?
00:27:39Listen, Athena. The moment you were born, I saw your grey eyes.
00:27:45I hid them. Because I was afraid Zeus would see them as a threat and move against you.
00:27:53I had no idea.
00:27:55I thought I'd keep that secret forever.
00:27:57Who knew it'd end up proving our bond.
00:28:00But Zeus won't hear a word from me.
00:28:03So go with Deloria. You understand?
00:28:07But I don't want to leave you.
00:28:09Me neither.
00:28:11But it's the only way.
00:28:13Trust me.
00:28:15I'll find a way to bring you back.
00:28:18I will.
00:28:19Do you hear me?
00:28:21You are the daughter of Hera, Queen of the Gods.
00:28:27Nothing will ever change that.
00:28:33Go with her.
00:28:35At normal.
00:28:36She won't hurt you.
00:28:37She thinks you're her flesh and blood.
00:28:39When I find a way, I'll come for you.
00:28:40See that, Hilda?
00:28:42Even your real mother doesn't want anything to do with you.
00:28:47She won't even look at you.
00:28:50See?
00:28:52You'll always be a nobody no matter where you go.
00:28:56Your Majesty, it's getting late.
00:28:58Time for Athena to come with me.
00:29:14This isn't fair.
00:29:16My entire life, I had nothing but rags to wear, and endured nothing but lashings.
00:29:22Athena got to wear the most beautiful dresses, lavished with praises from everyone.
00:29:27Now that the truth is out, I am Hera's daughter, yet Hera won't even look at me.
00:29:33Everything that's Athena's should have been mine.
00:29:35I will take it all back.
00:29:38Her wealth, her palace, Hera's love, all of it!
00:29:45Everyone out!
00:29:47What happened today stays within this hall.
00:29:49Anyone who spreads this and drags Olympita's name into the mud is a traitor.
00:29:53And my thunderbolt strikes all equally.
00:29:56Take Hera to the palace.
00:29:57She doesn't take a step outside without my permission.
00:30:02Remember what I told you!
00:30:05Don't worry, Your Majesty.
00:30:07Of course, I'll take good care of Athena.
00:30:10She's my own flesh and blood.
00:30:12You've got Hilda now.
00:30:15Who knows? She might just surprise you.
00:30:24Come.
00:30:36This is your room.
00:30:38Hera's taken me home.
00:30:40Athena's room is sitting empty.
00:30:41Maybe she'll put me there.
00:30:48Mother, which room did Athena use to sleep in?
00:30:52Drop that, Hilda.
00:30:54Don't even think about taking Athena's place.
00:30:57I wasn't, Mother.
00:30:58Mother.
00:30:58Don't call me Mother.
00:31:00Beneath my roof, you will be clothed and fed.
00:31:03Safe from harm.
00:31:04But don't go around calling yourself Hera's daughter.
00:31:06But the Divine Verdict said I'm your real daughter.
00:31:12No matter what that Divine Verdict said today, I have only ever had one daughter.
00:31:18Athena.
00:31:18That will never change.
00:31:32That will never change.
00:31:39Everyone loves her.
00:31:41Everyone.
00:31:42Zeus loves her.
00:31:43The gods love her.
00:31:45Hera.
00:31:46Hera loves her most of all.
00:31:48So what am I?
00:31:49What am I?
00:31:56You are my daughter.
00:31:59You always will be.
00:32:05I'll replace her.
00:32:06I will take her place in Hera's heart.
00:32:11Your Majesty.
00:32:13You sent for me.
00:32:14What happened today, the rumors have already spread.
00:32:17Some even claim Athena is still fathered by Zeus.
00:32:21There's no way to brush this off.
00:32:25Hermes.
00:32:26I need you to watch Dolorea and Klopios.
00:32:29Every person they meet, every place they go, every word they say.
00:32:35Most importantly, any trace of how they tampered with the Divine Verdict.
00:32:41Understood.
00:32:42When I find anything, you'll be the first to hear.
00:32:49Something went wrong.
00:32:50Enough to falsify a fate's Divine Verdict.
00:32:53I have to find out where.
00:32:56Athena, come.
00:32:57Have a seat.
00:32:58Taste this.
00:33:00It's nectar personally treasured by Dionysius himself.
00:33:03Most of the gods never even get a sip.
00:33:07Lady Dolorea.
00:33:09You don't have to do all this.
00:33:11Lady Dolorea.
00:33:13Call me mother.
00:33:16I can finally take care of you out in the open.
00:33:21Do you know how long I've waited for this?
00:33:25Eighteen years.
00:33:27You waited eighteen years?
00:33:29You mean that all along you've known that I'm your daughter?
00:33:34No, I meant...
00:33:36We spent eighteen years apart against my will.
00:33:39If I'd known earlier, I'd have demanded Hera return you at once.
00:33:43Enough of the past.
00:33:44Athena, the Sun Tower will be hosting a gathering soon.
00:33:49Every young god in Olympid will be there.
00:33:52Come with me.
00:33:53I'll have a gown made for you.
00:33:56That gathering?
00:33:57Right.
00:33:58The Sun Temple does it every year.
00:34:01Friendly socializing.
00:34:02It's really just pageantry trying to marry everyone off.
00:34:05I'm not going.
00:34:08What do you mean you're not going?
00:34:10You're going!
00:34:15You're one of the twelve now!
00:34:16Do you have any idea how many young gods will be there waiting to meet you?
00:34:21You've just had your moment of glory!
00:34:23Meet every powerful god.
00:34:26Let yourself be seen.
00:34:27This is good for your standing.
00:34:29My standing doesn't need anyone's help.
00:34:33Why are you so stubborn?
00:34:35You think people go to these events just to chat?
00:34:39They're building alliances.
00:34:41Trading treasures.
00:34:42Recruiting for their houses.
00:34:45A girl who does nothing but wage war.
00:34:49Shall I spend eternity worrying for your safety?
00:34:53Fighting is exactly what got me where I am.
00:34:56I wouldn't be sitting among the twelve without it.
00:34:59That's exactly why you need a powerful husband.
00:35:02Marry into the right house while you're at your peak.
00:35:04You'll have power.
00:35:05You'll never need to fight again.
00:35:07Enjoy your seat on the twelve in peace.
00:35:09My spear is my backing.
00:35:12You were there on the battlefield when I defeated three giants.
00:35:16You really think I need a husband to protect me?
00:35:19I know you can fight!
00:35:21But look at those scars on you!
00:35:23Every time I think about you going back to that battlefield, my heart seizes up.
00:35:27A good husband. A stable life.
00:35:30What's wrong with that?
00:35:31I'm trying to look out for you.
00:35:32For me? Have you asked me?
00:35:34I want to keep fighting?
00:35:35My mother Hera taught me to protect Olympus with my own hands.
00:35:40That's what I'll do for the rest of my life.
00:35:43Don't you dare say that woman's name in front of me!
00:35:46That child-steeding witch!
00:35:48Hera didn't steal anyone, and she is not what you claim.
00:35:52She respects my choices.
00:35:54She's never once pushed me to get married.
00:35:56She said she'd support me for the rest of my life if I so choose.
00:35:59I don't need a man to save me.
00:36:02She's nothing like you.
00:36:04Shut your mouth!
00:36:06I said don't mention her!
00:36:10And don't you dare defend her!
00:36:19I'll hate her till the day I die!
00:36:20This is my house and my rules!
00:36:22Don't you ever say that name again!
00:36:23You've slapped me!
00:36:25In all my 18 years, even enemies on the battlefield have never slapped me!
00:36:29What gives you the right?
00:36:30I risked everything just so you could enjoy a luxurious life for 18 years.
00:36:34I ask you to do one small thing and you talk back to me?
00:36:36Risks? What risks? None of your business.
00:36:39You just remember this.
00:36:40It's time you paid me back.
00:36:41I will find you the right match.
00:36:43In three days, the Sun Temple gathering, I'll handle everything.
00:36:47Take her.
00:36:48Every piece of armor, every battle boot, every spear in her wardrobe, throw it all out.
00:36:53Dress her in gowns and teach her how a lady of standing conducts herself.
00:36:57In three days, I want her walking into the Sun Temple like a proper lady.
00:37:00You keep saying you're doing this for me,
00:37:03but you've been treating me like an asset to trade from the start.
00:37:06You're nothing like my mother, Hera.
00:37:09You'll never be half the god she is!
00:37:12Take her away!
00:37:15Hera's filled Athena's head with poison.
00:37:18She'll thank me once she has a good husband.
00:37:20Then I'll be the mother of two Olympians.
00:37:22Every goddess and Olympian will be beneath my feet,
00:37:25proclaiming me mother of the gods on their knees!
00:37:31Your Majesty, I've been watching Delaria's residence.
00:37:35Just now, Delaria tried to force my lady Athena to attend the Sun Temple gathering.
00:37:40Athena refused.
00:37:41Delaria slapped her.
00:37:43She dared to strike her.
00:37:46Eighteen years, I never laid a single finder on Athena.
00:37:49How dare she!
00:37:50And this so-called gathering at the Sun Temple.
00:37:53It's pure pageantry with one goal in mind.
00:37:56To marry off every young god and goddess.
00:37:59Delaria, you...
00:38:00I must stop this.
00:38:01I will not let my daughter be sold as a bargaining chip.
00:38:07My Lady Hera!
00:38:08Hildi's ill.
00:38:09Her stomach!
00:38:10She's vomiting!
00:38:11Vomiting?
00:38:19Where does it hurt?
00:38:21I'm sending for the healer!
00:38:23No!
00:38:23Don't call the healer!
00:38:25I just need to lie down.
00:38:26It's just...
00:38:27With Delaria, I ate nothing but cold leftovers for eighteen years.
00:38:31My stomach never recovered.
00:38:32The food here is so rich.
00:38:34I'm not used to it.
00:38:35Just...
00:38:36Stay with me a little while.
00:38:38That's all I need.
00:38:40All right.
00:38:41So long as you live beneath my roof, I'll take care of you.
00:38:44She didn't leave.
00:38:45She stayed!
00:38:46If I keep at it, one day she'll talk to me the way she talks to Athena.
00:38:50Once I take Athena back, Hildir will have to go back to Delaria.
00:38:54Her obsession has consumed her.
00:38:56Hildir will not be safe.
00:38:57She's not my blood.
00:38:59But Hildir has suffered enough in these eighteen years.
00:39:02Hilda, in a few days, there's a gathering at the Sun Temple.
00:39:06I'll take you.
00:39:09Really?
00:39:11To a party?
00:39:12I've never...
00:39:14I've never been to anything like that!
00:39:16All the younger gods will be there.
00:39:18Dress well.
00:39:19Make a good impression.
00:39:20If someone takes an interest in you, don't wait.
00:39:24Marry early.
00:39:25Your husband's family will take good care of you.
00:39:28Your life won't be so hard.
00:39:30Finding her a good match.
00:39:31Someone to look after her.
00:39:33It's the only thing I can do for her.
00:39:35I hope it gives her a way out of this fate.
00:39:39She's starting to like me.
00:39:41She's taking me to the gathering and helping me find a match.
00:39:45That has to mean she's starting to care about me!
00:39:52What are you doing here?
00:39:54Are you insane?!
00:39:56Hilda!
00:39:57Look at you, moving up in the world.
00:39:59Now that you're Hera's daughter, you've forgotten old friends?
00:40:03Come down to meet me, or I'll tell everyone you've slept with me.
00:40:22Daemon!
00:40:23How did you find me here?
00:40:25This is Hera's palace.
00:40:27Hera's under house arrest.
00:40:29She's powerless now.
00:40:30Hilda!
00:40:33You're different now.
00:40:34Back at Deloria's place, you couldn't afford a decent dress.
00:40:37Now you're Hera's daughter.
00:40:39However far she's fallen.
00:40:41Anything inside the Queen's palace could feed someone for a lifetime, right?
00:40:47But here's the thing.
00:40:49If Hera found out her newly recovered daughter has been sleeping around since she was at Deloria's place.
00:40:55More than one man.
00:40:57Well, your cushy life might come to an end.
00:41:01What do you want?
00:41:03Nothing major.
00:41:04Just a little pocket money from Hera's daughter.
00:41:08Pull out a trinket or two can't be that hard.
00:41:11I don't have money.
00:41:13I haven't won Hera over yet.
00:41:16She's clothed and fed me but that's it.
00:41:22Fine.
00:41:23Keep playing poor.
00:41:24Tomorrow I walk into the plaza and announce to everyone that Hera's real daughter has been sleeping with me.
00:41:30Then I'll collect from Hera directly.
00:41:33I think she'll be more generous.
00:41:46I just got Hera to warm up to me. I can't let him destroy that. I can't.
00:41:53Fine. I'll get you jewelry.
00:41:57Right now. Just don't let Hera find out. Please.
00:42:01There's a good girl. Don't make me wait.
00:42:11Athena's room. She's not coming back anyway.
00:42:14The jewelry's just sitting there collecting dust.
00:42:17No one will notice.
00:42:31Hilda.
00:42:35Who said you could come in here?
00:42:38What are you doing?
00:42:41My lady Hera, I went to the wrong room. It was so dark I couldn't see.
00:42:45This is Athena's room.
00:42:47Don't come in here again.
00:42:49Out.
00:43:11A gemstone necklace.
00:43:13Hera's palace really does have the good stuff.
00:43:15Take it. Get out. Don't come back.
00:43:20No promises. Next time I'm short on gold I know where to come.
00:43:39I prepared this dress and jewelry for you. Go try them on. I'm confined here. I can't go. If someone
00:43:45speaks to you, use your judgment. If you meet someone suitable, come tell me.
00:43:51Yes, my lady.
00:43:58Is that really me?
00:44:01Everything Athena has, I can have too. Am I any less than her?
00:44:12No, I'm better. She's a goddess of the twelve. And I'm Hera's daughter. We're equals now. Athena will be there
00:44:19today too. Perfect.
00:44:20All she knows how to do is fight. She has no idea how to charm a man. I do. Today
00:44:25everyone will see it. I'll outshine her completely.
00:44:39Miss Hilda, daughter of Hermesi Hera, Queen of the Gods, arriving!
00:44:51Miss Hilda, I've been hoping for the chance to meet you properly. The coming of age ceremony wasn't the right
00:44:57moment. Today I'm honored. Miss Hilda, I'm Asculupius, son of Apollo. Would you do me the honor of sharing a
00:45:06cup with me?
00:45:11Is that Hilda? The one returned to Hera? The girl in rags at the ceremony?
00:45:18That's her. She's the king and queen's daughter. No divine seat yet, but that bloodline speaks for itself. Marry her
00:45:24and you're practically family with Zeus.
00:45:29My lady Athena is one of the twelve, but her mother was only a former priestess. Marrying Hilda offers a
00:45:36lot more leverage. That healthy little piece of trash. She's garbage I threw at Hera. What is she doing here?
00:45:44She just stole Ascipius' attention and I picked him specifically for Athena. I'm going to deal with that little ref.
00:45:52Dolorea. Dolorea, calm down. This is Apollo's gathering. Every god is here. Making a scene does us no good.
00:45:58My daughter is being ignored while that trash is the center of the universe. You think I can just stand
00:46:02here? She needs to learn who's off limits.
00:46:17Hilda, you lived among maids in my household, you piece of garbage. Put on a nice dress and you think
00:46:24you belong here. Go look in a mirror. Look at what you actually are.
00:46:37Dolorea, what is your problem? This is disgusting. Ladies and gentlemen, I know that looked excessive, but I'm actually protecting
00:46:47you. Don't be taken in by this girl. By the time you realize you've been swindled out of your assets,
00:46:52it'll be far too late.
00:46:54But isn't she the queen's daughter? Why would Heather's daughter need to steal anyone's assets?
00:46:59Because this Hilda is rotten to the core. She lived under my roof for 18 years. Feed her, lavish her
00:47:04with gifts, and she'll rob you blind. You may expect thanks, but her mouth only spills lies. It's in her
00:47:09blood.
00:47:10No, I never stole anything. I never deceived anyone.
00:47:16Nothing? I caught you stealing temple offerings with my own eyes. You're going to lie in front of all these
00:47:22gods? You think a pretty dress makes you better than me? You're still rotten to the core. Stop.
00:47:31Your majesty? Weren't you under Zeus's house arrest? What, you dressed up as a servant to sneak out? That's openly
00:47:37defying the king's orders.
00:47:39I came for Athena. She didn't want to come, didn't want to be pushed into marriage. You forced her. I
00:47:44wasn't going to stand by and watch her be bullied.
00:47:45That's none of your business. Your majesty's fate's divine varict couldn't have been more clear. Each girl returned to her
00:47:51rightful mother the wrong corrective.
00:47:53What I do for my daughter has absolutely nothing to do with you.
00:47:57Fine. If each girl is where she belongs, Hilda is my daughter now.
00:48:01Right or wrong, she is mine to discipline. What gives you the right to strike her?
00:48:05Well said, your majesty. She's your daughter now. It's not my place.
00:48:10But do you really know your own daughter? Has she told you about her past 18 years?
00:48:14Hilda, haven't told your dear mother what kind of girl you actually are in private?
00:48:17Dolea! Enough. Humiliating a woman like this in public is inexcusable.
00:48:22My lord Ascofius, how growlant of you to defend her.
00:48:25But you should know that one of this girl's lovers is here right now!
00:48:29He's the attendant standing directly behind you!
00:48:40What is he doing here? How is he at an event like this?
00:48:44No. He won't say it. He can't. If he talks, he goes down too. As long as he just denies
00:48:50it-
00:48:51Damon? You and Hilda are-
00:48:54My lord, I have no idea what she's talking about! I'm just an attendant! I haven't done anything! Please-
00:49:03That's my necklace! My mother gave it to me on my seventh birthday! I had no time to take it
00:49:08with me! How is it in your hands?
00:49:11That necklace was in Athena's room. It's always been on her dressing table.
00:49:16Interesting. A necklace from the queen's palace ends up on a servant's belt.
00:49:23Who's had recent access to Athena's room? And who just happens to have a connection to this particular servant?
00:49:30I don't know anything about it! It has nothing to do with me! That necklace must be a fake!
00:49:36He made a copy himself!
00:49:37Damon, you know what happens in Olympen when a lowly servant steals their master's possession, Tartarus. Carrying boulders for eternity
00:49:46until your bones turn to dust.
00:49:49But if you were just a fence, someone else's errand boy, that's a different story. Tell me, who gave you
00:49:56this necklace?
00:49:57Her! She gave it to me! She stole it from Lady Athena's room and threw it out the window to
00:50:02me! I swear!
00:50:04Is it true? Why did you steal? What exactly is your relationship with this servant?
00:50:11I... My Lady Hera... Mother... I...
00:50:15If she won't confess, let me speak the truth. Hilda slept around when she lived with me. This daemon? Just
00:50:22one of several. She stole to keep her lovers happy. She may be the daughter of the queen, but she
00:50:29hasn't changed a bit.
00:50:36Your majesty. Like I've always said, nature over nurture. Some were just born with wickedness. Wouldn't you agree?
00:50:52I...
00:50:52Stealing and slipping around? I thought she was the daughter of the queen, is her bloodline so roten?
00:50:57No wonder Deloria was so hard on her before. Letting Trush like this live is already generous.
00:51:02That's not how it was. My Lord Asclepheus, please listen, I really didn't...
00:51:12Mother, please. I didn't mean for this...
00:51:15Hilda, I thought at the very least you were a kind girl. I even wanted to save you. But clearly,
00:51:24you don't deserve my sympathy.
00:51:26Everyone saw. Evidence is crystal clear. And she still denies the truth. But then, what can you expect from a
00:51:33bad apple? Good fruit doesn't sprout from rotten soil.
00:51:36Nice speech, Deloria. You think you're cutting me. But every single thing you've just said, every word is going to
00:51:41come flying back and hit you in the face.
00:51:43Someone with this kind of conduct has no place at the sun-stample. Guards, remove Hilda and her lover. They're
00:51:49a stain on this gathering.
00:51:53Your Majesty, you're still defending her. What a devoted mother. Though I think that devotion might be wasted on the
00:51:58wrong girl.
00:51:59Hira, I'm not defending her. On the contrary, Hilda stole divine property. That's a violation of Olympian law. Her conduct
00:52:05violates standards of decency. Both offenses deserve to be brought before the Court of Judgment, heard openly before the gods.
00:52:12She will be tried and punished.
00:52:13Your Majesty, how honorable of you. Of course it goes to trial. A matter this serious has to be heard
00:52:19publicly. Everyone heard that. That was Her Majesty Hira's own request.
00:52:24The Court? She's personally sending her own daughter to trial. For the sake of her image, she'd sacrifice her own
00:52:30child.
00:52:30To keep her bloodline's reputation clean, she'd cast out her own daughter. Hira is ruthless.
00:52:37Your Majesty, what a gift. I thought it impossible to make things worse for you, bad enough to drag you
00:52:44off your throne. And you just did it for me. A guilty criminal's mother has no claim on Athena now.
00:52:50Ha!
00:52:51Dolorea, you think this trial will be your triumph. You want me humiliated in front of the gods. You have
00:52:59no idea. The one who will be tried and ruined in court will be the one who brought this upon
00:53:05herself. You.
00:53:08I was clear. House arrest. Don't leave the palace. Not only did you sneak out, you made a scene at
00:53:14the Sun Temple. All you and your daughter do is bring shame to my name. Once her trial is over,
00:53:19you'll answer to me.
00:53:20Don't worry. Today, not only will I not be punished, my daughter will walk out of here with her name
00:53:24completely clean.
00:53:26Your Majesty, I must say, I'm impressed. Sacrificing your own daughter for honor, you are an example to us all.
00:53:34Athena, see that? Lucky you're my daughter. Otherwise, it wouldn't be just Hilda in the defendant's seat today.
00:53:40Just stop.
00:53:46Where's Clopius? He's going to miss watching Hera's daughter get sent to prison. Real shame.
00:53:51Dolorea, go ahead. Talk all you want. Tear Hilda apart. Cast her down.
00:53:56The more crimes you list, the more knives you're going to find in your own back when this is done.
00:54:02Bring the defendant, Hilda, into the court.
00:54:07There she is! The chief! Stealing from the divine hall itself!
00:54:13I heard she was slipping around with multiple men before she even came of age.
00:54:21You filthy rat! How does it feel? Eighteen years of stealing from my house was enough you stole the Queen's
00:54:26palace?
00:54:26I always knew you'd end up here, on trial for all of Olympian to see.
00:54:30Show us how Hera's real daughter behaves.
00:54:32She's right! Executed her! Thrash like that deserves worse than doubt!
00:54:38Stealing divine property, immorality, public flag ring, and exile!
00:54:42Both crimes together! Brand her so she can never be reborn!
00:54:45Throw her into the lowest pit of the underworld, and let her rot alongside the bones of the Titans!
00:54:51Athena, look at her! That is Hera's daughter!
00:54:53You remember this? Remember who's standing there while everyone spits on her?
00:54:56Never be like her, ever!
00:54:59My lord, witnesses and evidence are present. What is there left to try? Render judgment immediately.
00:55:09Hilda, you stand accused of two offenses. The combined sentence. Exile to the underworld.
00:55:15You are forbidden from returning to Olympus Mountain for eternity.
00:55:21Well judged, my lord. Your verdict is just. Let it be carried out immediately.
00:55:26Your majesty, Hera. Wouldn't you agree?
00:55:29If you have no objections, I certainly don't either, Dolorea.
00:55:32After all, you're the one best suited to decide Hilda's fate.
00:55:35Wait! I had no choice! I had to steal that necklace!
00:55:40That man was blackmailing me. He said if I didn't pay him, he'd expose everything!
00:55:48Blackmail? Would he have been able to blackmail an innocent girl?
00:55:52Why did I do those things? You of all people should know why I stole!
00:55:57Eighteen years. I ate spoiled leftovers every day. I couldn't even get clean water!
00:56:02I needed gold! I was hungry! What was I supposed to do?
00:56:07That was discipline. Not an excuse to sleep her around.
00:56:11Listen to her excuses. The filth just oozes out of her.
00:56:15Like mother, like daughter. A shayless, heartless, through and through!
00:56:22Oh, wait. My lord Zeus, I didn't mean that. Please don't misunderstand. I wasn't suggesting you...
00:56:28But what if she speaks true?
00:56:29The divine verdict confirmed Hera is her mother, but the father...
00:56:33The divine verdict never actually said who he was.
00:56:36Maybe the divine verdict didn't name the father because some matters are too powerful to be exposed.
00:56:41Hera, I hope there's no truth in her words.
00:56:44For once, she speaks true. Hilda was not fathered by you.
00:56:51What?
00:56:54Hera, explain yourself! What do you mean I'm not her father?
00:56:58It was just an idle guess.
00:57:01You mean it's true, your majesty. Are you admitting it?
00:57:05I say Hilda's father isn't Zeus because...
00:57:09Her mother isn't me either.
00:57:12Here we go again.
00:57:13You can't keep track of which daughter is yours.
00:57:16The divine verdict was absolutely clear.
00:57:18Hilda is your real daughter.
00:57:19And now you're denying it again?
00:57:21I'm not you.
00:57:22I'm not the one who was blind to her own daughter.
00:57:24Who are you calling blind?
00:57:26Are you still in denial?
00:57:27Dolorea.
00:57:28Since you're not blind, tell me.
00:57:30What color are Athena's eyes?
00:57:32Isn't it obvious?
00:57:33They're brown.
00:57:34Everyone here has seen Athena's eyes.
00:57:39Why is she asking that?
00:57:41Everyone can see Athena's eyes.
00:57:42They're brown.
00:57:43Everyone heard that.
00:57:44Dolorea just stated, with her own mouth, that Athena's eyes are brown.
00:57:50Hera, what are you playing at?
00:57:52What else would they be?
00:57:54Have you actually lost your mind?
00:57:59Father, my mother is right.
00:58:02My eyes are not brown.
00:58:11This is the greatest proof that Athena is my real daughter.
00:58:16Eighteen years ago, the moment she was born, I concealed her gray eyes myself.
00:58:22I was afraid someone would use them against her, call them an ill omen.
00:58:27They were hidden since birth.
00:58:29That means the only one who would know is her mother.
00:58:32Hera really is Athena's real mother.
00:58:35No.
00:58:36That can't be.
00:58:37I was sure.
00:58:38I was right there.
00:58:40You were sure of what?
00:58:41That you switched those babies eighteen years ago?
00:58:44That I was too tired to see?
00:58:46Dolorea, I know everything.
00:58:48I waited until you left, and I switched them back.
00:58:51As long as these gray eyes shine, I will always know my daughter.
00:59:05You're lying!
00:59:13This proves nothing!
00:59:16Who knows if you really switched them back?
00:59:18Your word alone means nothing.
00:59:21What about the Divine Virict?
00:59:26Let us proceed with the Divine Virict.
00:59:32Dolorea, don't you see?
00:59:34The Divine Verdict, that's what was changed with a trick.
00:59:37What proof do you have?
00:59:42Are you challenging the fates themselves, my Lord Zeus?
00:59:45This lunaturk is questioning the fates!
00:59:48Have her...
00:59:59The fates, the fates themselves.
01:00:02Why have the three fates come in person to the court?
01:00:05The fates in person in the court of judgment.
01:00:07In all my three thousand years, I have never seen their true forms descend upon Olympias.
01:00:16Impossible.
01:00:19Why would the fates be here?
01:00:21They never leave the Hall of Destiny.
01:00:24We have no wish to involve ourselves in such trivial affairs.
01:00:28But, when a Divine Verdict is falsified, we have no choice.
01:00:34The Divine Verdict that was read in this hall was altered by the fates' oracle herself.
01:00:40She accepted a bribe from Clopios.
01:00:43She rewrote the final name to read Dolorea in the true book of fate.
01:00:49Not a single word has ever been altered.
01:01:07Athena is the daughter of Hera and Zeus.
01:01:14Hilda is the daughter of Dolorea.
01:01:18This girl's father is Clopios.
01:01:22She was born of Dolorea and Clopios.
01:01:25Born of incest!
