00:00:14Ethan, this is the ice crystal you formed with your very first spell.
00:00:21Today is your birthday. Father and I had it made into a pendant just for you.
00:00:33Ethan, stay here while mother goes to buy you a sweet cake. All right?
00:00:37No. We need that money for father's medicine.
00:00:40But today is your birthday. Birthdays mean sweet cakes.
00:00:45Really? Thank you, mother.
00:00:52Excuse me. Do you have anything a little cheaper?
00:00:56No.
00:00:56Please, sir. My son's birthday is today.
00:01:00He's always wanted a sweet cake. Even just a small piece.
00:01:03Out! Go buy your scraps at the end of the street.
00:01:09Ethan, you'll have sweet cakes for his birthday today. I promise.
00:01:16Get out of the way!
00:01:18Get out of the way!
00:01:21Get out of the way!
00:01:23Get out of the way!
00:01:26Get out of the way!
00:01:27Get out of the way!
00:01:42Child! Child! Where are this boy's parents?
00:01:50This is formed from ice magic
00:01:55He carries a talent for ice magic
00:01:57A skill that hasn't appeared in 300 years
00:02:07Ethan, I got you your cake
00:02:11Ethan, Ethan
00:02:16Have you seen Ethan?
00:02:17Have you seen Ethan?
00:02:20Ethan, my son
00:02:32Doctor, the boy
00:02:35The injuries are severe
00:02:36You'll need high-level healing magic
00:02:38Head to the main city at once
00:02:40Did you hear me?
00:02:41Open the portal, now!
00:02:50Forgive me, child
00:02:51The kingdom needs you more than they do
00:02:59Ethan, my soul
00:03:10Desperate joy
00:03:32And here, perhaps someone here will have seen Ethan
00:03:49Ethan, father will find you

00:04:57My Lord, Ethan, you have become the greatest mage in the kingdom.
00:05:03From this day forward, you are the new Grand Commander of the Legion.
00:05:06Father, the Legion is in good hands. Please, go and rest.
00:05:13This is the construction plan for the Frost Village training camp.
00:05:17Go and oversee the site yourself.
00:05:22But I worry about you.
00:05:24Go. Frost Village is your home.
00:05:27This once hung around your neck.
00:05:29Forgive me, child.
00:05:30All these years I kept you so you could serve the kingdom.
00:05:33Selfishly, I took from your family.
00:05:35Go now. Your parents must still be waiting for you.
00:05:40Today is your birthday.
00:05:42Father and I had it made into a pendant just for you.
00:05:45Mother.
00:05:55Ethan, where are you? I miss you so much.
00:05:59Lucy, wonderful news. The most wonderful news.
00:06:04Victor, is it Ethan? Do you have news of Ethan?
00:06:12Ethan, why would I bring up that useless boy?
00:06:16The Royal Magic Legion is building a new training camp in the Northern Territory.
00:06:20All of Frost Village is being cleared, including that broken shack of yours.
00:06:25My son Marcus bargained for you.
00:06:28Fifty gold coin in settlement.
00:06:31They're tearing down our house?
00:06:33That's right.
00:06:38No, we can't.
00:06:39If our house is gone,
00:06:41Ethan will have nowhere to come home to.
00:06:43I have to go back and protect it.
00:06:54Welcome, Commander.
00:06:56Commander,
00:06:57the clearance work in the Northern Territory is nearly complete.
00:07:00There's one household that refuses to sign the eviction notice.
00:07:03Shall we
00:07:04force the matter?
00:07:05The Legion does not do forced evictions. I'll speak to them myself.
00:07:11Yes, sir.
00:07:23Have you ever met Ethan?
00:07:36Auntie Lucy!
00:07:37What are you doing?
00:07:38The new Legion Commander is here.
00:07:40Put that thing away before you get me killed.
00:07:42Marcus, please.
00:07:44Your Commander has surely met many people.
00:07:47Perhaps he's seen my Ethan.
00:07:49Let me just go and ask.
00:07:57Wake up!
00:07:58Your son is dead.
00:08:00Get out of my sight.
00:08:02Ethan isn't dead.
00:08:03He's not.
00:08:04Out of the way!
00:08:18Strange.
00:08:19The boy in this portrait looks just like I did as a child.
00:08:33Sam, my brother in arms.
00:08:35Let me handle this one alone.
00:08:36Commander Aldrich sent me to assist you.
00:08:38He believes Lord Garrett, Governor of the Northern Territory, is trouble.
00:08:43Then find out where this plan came from.
00:08:45I'll arrange it at once.
00:08:46Wait here for my news.
00:08:47I'm going to Frost Village myself.
00:08:49Contact me the moment you have something.
00:08:51Understood.
00:08:52Portals won't do for the road ahead.
00:08:53Find me a carriage.
00:08:58Get out of my way.

00:28:36Once they're dead, that 50 gold settlement is all ours.
00:28:44I can't fight here. I won't destroy the house.
00:28:47This is the home my parents guarded their whole lives.
00:28:50I'll go with you, but my parents stay.
00:28:53No! If you go with them, you'll die.
00:28:55Don't worry. We're your mother and father. We'll protect you.
00:28:59Ha! Lost your nerve? Where's all that big talk now?
00:29:03Fine. Those two old wrecks won't last much longer anyway.
00:29:13Father, mother, don't worry. I'll be back soon.
00:29:18Ethan! Ethan!
00:29:20Honor his fertile devotion, then. Trade your lives for his.
00:29:25Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
00:29:27Ethan!
00:29:36Where is he? Tall, handsome, dressed in rough cloth and a leather apron. Where did he go?
00:29:41Your men took him. They said they were taking him to the wasteland for execution.
00:29:46Please save my son.
00:29:47Ex- Execution?
00:29:52Execution?
00:29:57Thomas, what do we do?
00:29:58Don't panic. Remember? Ethan was betrothed as a child.
00:30:03You mean Isabella's family? They were as poor as us back then, but they've grown rich.
00:30:08Frost Village wealthiest family. They cut ties with us years ago.
00:30:11They're our last hope. Perhaps they will save Ethan for old time's sake.
00:30:30I chose quite the place to die.
00:30:32Any last words?
00:30:40Ethan, kneel nicely and I might make it quick.
00:30:43And those 50 gold coins will be ours. Small comfort for what you did to my darling, but it'll do.
00:30:50My love, once we have that money, I'll buy you the most beautiful dresses. New shoes for my parents, too.
00:31:00I warned you. Cross the Legion and you pay a price you cannot afford.
00:31:05What right do you have to speak for the Legion?
00:31:11Ethan, still boasting with death at your door.
00:31:19No. Death is at yours.
00:31:32Is it? You're falling for your own bluff.
00:31:37This fool actually thinks he's the commander.
00:31:40The commander? Have you ever even seen the commander?
00:31:43Only someone of Lord Garrett's rank would even qualify.
00:31:47Your rank is too low. You're not worthy.
00:31:50You vile creature.
00:31:54Scared now? Beg me and maybe I'll let you off.
00:31:57Is this all you can muster? You truly think this is enough?
00:32:00Gutter trash. There you go again with the big talk. Make him hurt.
00:32:09These soldiers are Legion elite.
00:32:12Any one of them could crush an ant like you.
00:32:18Rise.
00:32:23See that? Scared. Too late.
00:32:27Is that all you've got?
00:32:29Against you? More than enough.
00:32:32This level? I could put it out with a flick of my fingers.
00:32:35You arrogant wretch. I'll grind you to ash. Combine!
00:32:40You're doomed.
00:32:41You're doomed!
00:32:43Yes!
00:32:49How is this possible?
00:32:53This... This can't be.
00:32:55I can't move! Let go!
00:32:58Help!
00:33:00Stand down!
00:33:02All of you, stand down!
00:33:08Commander!
00:33:09Commander!
00:33:11Thank goodness you're here!
00:33:13Kill this madman!
00:33:15What is going on here?
00:33:17Commander!
00:33:18Commander!
00:33:18This lowborn wretch used dark magic and killed all my soldiers!
00:33:21Now he wants to kill me!
00:33:24Striking Sienna is the same as striking you, sir!
00:33:27This is a declaration of war!
00:33:30Lord Garrett is here.
00:33:32You're doomed.
00:33:36You're dead.
00:33:45Sir, have you struck the wrong person?
00:33:48That one's over there!
00:33:50Silence!
00:33:52And you!
00:33:53You!
00:33:58You lawless animals!
00:34:00He's just a penniless blacksmith commander!
00:34:11Commander!
00:34:11Commander, your subordinate Garrett failed to discipline his men.
00:34:14They offended the commander.
00:34:16I await your punishment.
00:34:18We await your punishment, commander!
00:34:20Commander!
00:34:26Sir, look at how he's dressed.
00:34:27How could he possibly be the commander?
00:34:30Commander Marcusis, I can bear witness.
00:34:31He's just the son of a poor relative of mine.
00:34:34They just found him today.
00:34:36It's true.
00:34:37Sir, you must be mistaken.
00:34:38Just look.
00:34:39How could a penniless blacksmith be the commander?
00:34:47Open your eyes!
00:34:49This is the youngest commander in the Empire's history!
00:34:53The new...
00:34:53The new commander?
00:34:55This can't be...
00:35:00Effective immediately, you are stripped of all military rank.
00:35:04You are demoted to the lowest common class.
00:35:08No!
00:35:09Commander Garrett, I was wrong!
00:35:15He's the commander.
00:35:17Does that mean Thomas' family is about to strike it rich?
00:35:21Commander, it was all Marcus who deceived me.
00:35:23Tonight, anything you want.
00:35:26If you let me go, tonight...
00:35:28No, every night from now on, I'm yours.
00:35:30You can do anything you'd like to me.
00:35:33You terrible woman!
00:35:34What do you think you're doing?
00:35:35This is your fault!
00:35:37If you weren't such a useless rest, I'd never have crossed the commander!
00:35:41Take them away.
00:35:46Take them away.
00:36:12Announce throughout the Northern Territory that three days from now, I will hold a grand ceremony in the city.
00:36:17I will declare the identity of my birth parents publicly.
00:36:20No one will dare trouble them again.
00:36:23Understood.
00:36:23I'll see to it at once.
00:36:36Move along.
00:36:37This is not a place for beggars.
00:36:40My lord.
00:36:43My son holds a betrothal contract with Miss Isabella.
00:36:48The poorest person Miss Isabella's ever seen is her own stable hand.
00:36:52You two, rolling in the mud, dare speak of a betrothal?
00:36:56This is all our savings.
00:36:58Please, I beg you.
00:37:07Fine.
00:37:08Wait there.
00:37:14My lord.
00:37:16Any news yet?
00:37:19Why are you still here?
00:37:21Move on or I'll have you arrested.
00:37:23You took our money.
00:37:24That was everything we had.
00:37:27How could you deceive us like this?
00:37:30Savings.
00:37:31How much could beggars like you even have?
00:37:36Miss Isabella.
00:37:41Something stinks.
00:37:42Did someone leave rubbish out here?
00:37:46It's me.
00:37:47I'm Ethan's mother.
00:37:52So you're the two spreading rumours that I'm your son's betrothed?
00:38:01How could you hit her?
00:38:04Exactly what vermin like you deserve.
00:38:07You saw our family prosper and came crawling.
00:38:13That's not why we're here.
00:38:18So this is Frost Village' wealthiest estate.
00:38:21Rather modest, honestly.
00:38:24Still denying it?
00:38:26Filth like you, I've seen plenty.
00:38:28You want money?
00:38:29Just admit it.
00:38:40We don't want money.
00:38:42Do you remember the betrothal with our son?
00:38:46You two shameless wretcheds dare bring that up?
00:38:50You've been spreading that lie all over the village.
00:38:53No, we haven't.
00:38:54My son.
00:38:58Your son?
00:39:00Two old chromes who wallow in the mud.
00:39:03Your son must be worthless to leave you destitute.
00:39:07Know your place and get out.
00:39:11No, no, we don't want anything.
00:39:15Still here?
00:39:16Go on!
00:39:19No!
00:39:35And who are you?
00:39:36Child, you're really back.
00:39:38They didn't hurt you, did they?
00:39:39I'm fine, father, mother.
00:39:41They didn't dare.
00:39:42Your home?
00:39:43That's all that matters.
00:39:45Oh, and who might this is?
00:39:47Another pewter by the look of it.
00:39:49You dare stand at the gate of my estate.
00:39:51That is enough, Isabella.
00:39:54Don't think being a woman will protect you from me.
00:39:56What are you playing at?
00:39:58Vermin from the gutter shouldn't stoil the air with their words.
00:40:01Isabella, watch what you say.
00:40:07Apologize.
00:40:08Now.
00:40:10Apologize?
00:40:11To you?
00:40:12Ethan, you cannot bear the consequences of my apology.
00:40:15In this town, one word from me and you disappear.
00:40:17Isabella, wonderful news.
00:40:19The most wonderful news.
00:40:21The Legion just issued an order.
00:40:2330 ships of premium spices and exclusive Mediterranean salt trading rights,
00:40:26all sent to your family.
00:40:27You're about to be the richest family in the region.
00:40:29Oh, really?
00:40:31Heavens!
00:40:32Is it true?
00:40:33Absolutely.
00:40:34My father is the Northern Territory governor, after all.
00:40:37So that's why these two old retchels turned up today.
00:40:40They heard word our family was about to strike it rich.
00:40:44Is that so?
00:40:46Parasites sniffing out the scent.
00:40:48They dare set their sights on some of the Legion favors.
00:40:51I'll discipline these bastards the Legion way!
00:41:01Lay a hand on me,
00:41:02and your father will lose his post.
00:41:05A blacksmith,
00:41:07all muscle and no sense.
00:41:08His lowborn peasant is far too brazen.
00:41:10His father is the Northern Territory governor.
00:41:12I'm telling my father!
00:41:13You're finished!
00:41:15No,
00:41:16it was all my fault.
00:41:19Mother, it's alright.
00:41:20Call him.
00:41:21Let's see what he does.
00:41:24Oh, a filthy commoner wants to see my father.
00:41:27Someone of my father's stature,
00:41:28and you think you can just summon him?
00:41:30A filthy cockroach who doesn't know his place.
00:41:35You two are the parasites,
00:41:37living off your father's names.
00:41:39So what?
00:41:40Even without magic,
00:41:41I'm a senior Legion commander.
00:41:43Can you say the same?
00:41:44Only those with magical talent may serve in the Legion.
00:41:47That is the law.
00:41:48You had quite some nerve.
00:41:53The law?
00:41:55My father is the law in the Northern Territory.
00:41:58A governor this arrogant.
00:42:02My father is more than a governor.
00:42:04Do you have any idea how much the new commander values Lord Garrett?
00:42:08Values him?
00:42:09News to me.
00:42:10The new commander arrives in the Northern Territory in three days.
00:42:13That alone is the highest honor for my father.
00:42:15Enough.
00:42:16Stop wasting words on this cockroach.
00:42:20You said really true.
00:42:21My father's word is never wrong.
00:42:23Three days from now,
00:42:24the new commander holds a public ceremony in the Central Square.
00:42:26I need to get a new gown ready at once.
00:42:30Three days from now,
00:42:33I'll have a gift for you too.
00:42:35One you'll never forget.
00:42:53Garrett has planted men in the honor guard.
00:42:56They may make a move at tomorrow's ceremony.
00:42:58He can't beat me.
00:42:59Everything proceeds as planned.
00:43:01Understood.
00:43:03Sam,
00:43:04I need to ask a favor.
00:43:05As brothers.
00:43:07Name it.
00:43:11Take my parents far from the Northern Territory.
00:43:14As far as possible.
00:43:15I don't want them caught in the middle.
00:43:17Done.
00:43:18Thank you, Sam.
00:43:20You know,
00:43:20I've never thought of you as a subordinate.
00:43:25You are the brother I trust most.
00:43:28I'll head out now.
00:43:34I'll head out now.
00:43:40Coming here was too dangerous.
00:43:42Don't worry.
00:43:44He'll never expect his sworn brother to be the one plotting his downfall.
00:43:49You have his trust.
00:43:52Trust.
00:43:53To him,
00:43:54I'm nothing but a convenient tool.
00:43:55Good.
00:43:57Hold on to that hatred.
00:44:03Tomorrow,
00:44:04Ethan loses the thing he's most proud of.
00:44:17Once I win the commander's favor,
00:44:19a dukety is practically mine.
00:44:23Once I've captivated the commander,
00:44:25I'll have a man with magic,
00:44:27unlike this useless dead weight.
00:44:30The commander is here!
00:44:49Ethan!
00:44:50Why didn't you tell me you were the commander?
00:44:51That makes me the commander's wife.
00:44:53We do have a betrothal after all.
00:44:56Isabella!
00:44:57What are you doing,
00:44:58you shameless horrid?
00:45:00Get back here!
00:45:02You have no shame.
00:45:04Yesterday you humiliated me and my parents,
00:45:07called us worthless filth.
00:45:08Now you want to be my betrothed?
00:45:10It was all my fault.
00:45:13I didn't know you were the commander.
00:45:15Ethan,
00:45:16please give me a chance to make it right.
00:45:18Take her away.
00:45:20And revolt the Thorn family's salt trading rights in the Mediterranean.
00:45:24No!
00:45:25My family is already in debt.
00:45:27Without that contract,
00:45:28we'll be ruined!
00:45:29This man holds no magical talent,
00:45:32yet infiltrated the Legion and took a post.
00:45:35Take him to prison immediately.
00:45:37Commander!
00:45:39Fitz is still young.
00:45:41Allow me to take him home and discipline him myself.
00:45:44You would defy a direct order.
00:45:45I advise you to think carefully.
00:45:47This is the Northern Territory.
00:45:49I call the shots.
00:45:51Move against my son,
00:45:52and you'll see how ruthless I can be.
00:45:58What are you going to do?
00:45:59I have men positioned in all four directions.
00:46:03One signal from me,
00:46:05and they will destroy the barrier.
00:46:07When the beasts flood the city,
00:46:10every man, woman, and child will die.
00:46:16You're insane!
00:46:32You...
00:46:34You...
00:46:38Let me go!
00:46:39Where are my parents?
00:46:41What have you done with them?
00:46:43What have you done with them?
00:46:50Give up.
00:46:52That is a mage binding chain.
00:46:54It doesn't just restrain your power.
00:46:56In one hour,
00:46:57it will drain your magic entirely
00:46:59and leave you a broken man.
00:47:02Sam,
00:47:03I always thought of you as the brother.
00:47:06I trust with my life.
00:47:08Why?
00:47:09You hypocrite!
00:47:11Even now you lie.
00:47:13If it weren't for you,
00:47:15if only you didn't exist,
00:47:18the commander's seat would have been mine!
00:47:22You have no idea what I gave to become commander.
00:47:25I trained every hour of every day.
00:47:27I pushed through every injury.
00:47:28I could suffer anything
00:47:30if it meant I could become commander.
00:47:31And then there was you.
00:47:34You beat me without crying.
00:47:35You took everything I ever wanted.
00:47:38You made me this shameful loser!
00:47:41Sam, you haven't lost.
00:47:43You've let obsession blind you.
00:47:45I have always seen your effort.
00:47:47Your worth.
00:47:48In my eyes,
00:47:49you are already one of the greatest mages in the kingdom.
00:47:52You knew.
00:47:54Release the chain.
00:47:56Let us speak plainly.
00:48:01He's manipulating you!
00:48:02Do you want to be a deputy for the rest of your life?
00:48:04Exactly!
00:48:07Don't listen to him, Sam!
00:48:09Stop struggling.
00:48:11Every soul in this city is about to die because of you.
00:48:14You'll be thrown from the commander's seat
00:48:17and cursed for a thousand years.
00:48:30My son!
00:48:31It's useless.
00:48:31Only the owner can open the mage binding chain.
00:48:34I know.
00:48:35You spent three months developing it.
00:48:37You've always been brilliant.
00:48:38That means nothing right now!
00:48:45Enough!
00:48:46Don't waste our time!
00:48:48No!
00:48:48What are you doing?
00:48:50You promised you wouldn't kill Ethan!
00:48:52So that was their arrangement.
00:48:56Sam,
00:48:57do you know why Ethan always outranked you?
00:49:00Because you are too soft.
00:49:01Poor little deputy.
00:49:03Think carefully.
00:49:04If Ethan were gone,
00:49:06who would be left to contest the commander's seat?
00:49:08Exactly.
00:49:09Ethan is the only one who needs to die.
00:49:11Don't believe them!
00:49:13They're using you!
00:49:14I think you're a smart man.
00:49:18You know what to do.
00:49:27Sam.
00:49:28You deserve victory.
00:49:30Do you really want to claim it through dirty tricks?
00:49:32Useless!
00:49:47Mother!
00:49:49Mother!
00:49:49Out of my way!
00:49:51No.
00:49:52A mother will never hide.
00:49:53Mother!
00:49:55Ethan, I am so proud of you.
00:49:58You've become such a wonderful man.
00:50:00You've already done so much for us.
00:50:03Now let us protect you.
00:50:04Get out of the way, you old fools!
00:50:06Two powerless wrenches.
00:50:08I'll send you all off together.
00:50:10Father!
00:50:11Mother, get back!
00:50:13No.
00:50:14A mother should always protect her son.
00:50:17It was my fault.
00:50:19All those years ago, you suffered so much.
00:50:22Don't blame, Mother.
00:50:23I failed you.
00:50:25I couldn't even buy you the sweet cake you loved.
00:50:29I, Garrett, am of noble birth.
00:50:31I do not strike those without magic.
00:50:33If you insist on standing in my way, take three strikes.
00:50:36Survive them, and I'll let him go.
00:50:39His health has never been good.
00:50:41He's been ill for years.
00:50:43But...
00:50:43I'll take them.
00:50:45Perhaps I can hold.
00:50:47What are these fools dealing about?
00:50:48Do it, Father!
00:50:54Mother!
00:51:02Mother!
00:51:18Powerless fool!
00:51:19My father is the Northern Territory's greatest swordsman!
00:51:23That strike was a lesson.
00:51:25No one defies me in all the Northern Territory.
00:51:28Poor woman.
00:51:29Powerless.
00:51:31She doesn't stand a chance against Garrett.
00:51:46Mother!
00:51:52She's still standing.
00:51:58That was the first strike.
00:52:01I was merciful to hold back.
00:52:04Step aside now, and you keep your life.
00:52:07No.
00:52:07My son needs me.
00:52:10I will not move.
00:52:12Mother.
00:52:14Then you die.
00:52:16No one in the Northern Territory has ever survived three of my father's strikes.
00:52:20Least of all, a frail old woman like you.
00:52:25You!
00:52:28What are you doing?
00:52:29What are you doing?
00:52:29You would betray my father?
00:52:32I...
00:52:35I...
00:52:35Garret held back on the first strike.
00:52:38But the second...
00:52:53I showed mercy once because you are old.
00:52:56I showed mercy once because you are old.
00:52:56That mercy is gone.
00:53:01Mother!
00:53:02Move!
00:53:12She's finally dead!
00:53:15No one survives three of Garret's strikes.
00:53:17She gave everything she had.
00:53:20Lucy.
00:53:21Your sacrifice will not be wasted.
00:53:24Now it's my turn to protect our son.
00:53:34Ethan, you missed 20 years.
00:53:38But I am so glad I lived to see the man you've become.
00:53:42Far greater than I ever imagined.
00:53:46I'm sorry.
00:53:48I won't be able to walk beside you any longer.
00:53:51But I only hope you will be happy.
00:53:59I give you no more chances.
00:54:03Die!
00:54:16I...
00:54:17Lost again?
00:54:25How...
00:54:26How are you still standing?
00:54:29No matter how hard I try.
00:54:40How is your mother?
00:54:43Safe.
00:54:44She's no longer in danger.
00:54:46But we need to get her to a healer.
00:54:49Then let's go now!
00:54:53I think you can just walk away.
00:55:02The barrier?
00:55:04You said you wouldn't touch the barrier!
00:55:06Sam.
00:55:07You are far too naive.
00:55:09Did you really think your mage binding chain was enough?
00:55:12Of course I had a backup plan.
00:55:14It's your own fault you're useless!
00:55:17You...
00:55:34Time for the air.
00:55:48It's your own fault.
00:55:48I wonder, Ethan! The magical barrier needs your magical energy!
00:55:52Father, Mother, wait just a little longer. Once the barrier is restored, I'll come straight back.
00:55:56Go, child. We'll be here.
00:55:58Begin restoring the barrier. Now.
00:56:09Commander! Please channel your energy!
00:56:22Father, are we just going to wait while they repair it?
00:56:26Ethan, you will not win. You insist on stripping me of my governorship.
00:56:30I'll burn the Northern Territory to the ground before I give it up. Release me, now!
00:56:36Commander, we cannot lift our hands from the ground until the barrier is restored.
00:56:41Not one thread of magical energy can escape. If it does, everything is lost.
00:56:49We are safe. The repair circle protects those channeling it.
00:56:55Ha! Is that so? And what about those two?
00:57:02Let's see how lucky you are this time.
00:57:12Commander! Don't let go!
00:57:16Without the barrier, the entire Northern Territory will...
00:57:20So what? Peasants and commoners. Worthless. If they die, they die.
00:57:27Exactly. We are nobility. Superior by birth.
00:57:34Commander, 300,000 commoners live here. The loved ones of soldiers. The Legion.
00:57:41Who doesn't have loved ones? Think of the sacrifice your parents made to protect you.
00:57:46Can you really bear to let them die?
00:58:00It's alright, Ethan. We'd never blame you. This is the right choice.
00:58:07We're proud of you.
00:58:08Silence, old man.
00:58:11My poison dagger. This venom makes a man feel every cut before he dies.
00:58:17Ethan, remember, all of this is your fault.
00:58:39Are you insane? You dare betray me?
00:58:42You broke your oath first. You swore you wouldn't hurt anyone.
00:58:45He never truly meant to harm me. Sam was only led astray.
00:58:50Sam, you brought this on yourself, every bit of it.
00:58:52Sam! You did the right thing!
00:58:55Yes. I made the right choice.
00:58:58You believe his lies? Fool!
00:59:01Every man who reaches the top has blood on his hands.
00:59:04That's why you'll never be Ethan's equal! Useless!
00:59:13You are the brother I trust.
00:59:19You'll always be worthless.
