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.
00:01:58A skill that hasn't appeared in 300 years.
00:02:07Ethan, I got you your cake.
00:02:10Ethan?
00:02:11Ethan!
00:02:16Have you seen Ethan? Have you seen Ethan?
00:02:20Ethan, my son.
00:02:34Doctor, the boy. The injuries are severe.
00:02:37You'll need high-level healing magic.
00:02:39Head to the main city at once.
00:02:40Did you hear me? Open the portal, now!
00:02:50Forgive me, child.
00:02:52The kingdom needs you more than they do.
00:02:59Ethan, my soul!
00:03:01Oh, god.
00:03:09Desperate children.
00:03:17Oh.
00:03:18Oh.
00:03:31And here, perhaps someone here will have seen Ethan.
00:03:49Ethan, father will find you.
00:03:53I swear it.
00:03:55I swear it.
00:03:56I swear it.
00:04:21I swear it.
00:04:30I don't know.
00:04:57My lord. Ethan. You have become the greatest mage in the kingdom. From this day forward, you are the new
00:05:05Grand Commander of the Legion. Father, the Legion is in good hands. Please, go and rest.
00:05:13This is the construction plan for the Frost Village training camp. Go and oversee the site yourself.
00:05:21But I worry about you.
00:05:24Go. Frost Village is your home. This once hung around your neck. Forgive me, child. All these years I kept
00:05:31you so you could serve the kingdom. Selfishly, I took from your family. Go now. Your parents must still be
00:05:37waiting for you.
00:05:40Today is your birthday. Father and I had it made into a pendant just for you. Mother.
00:05:55Ethan, where are you? I miss you so much. Lucy! Wonderful news! The most wonderful news!
00:06:05Victor! Is it Ethan? Do you have news of Ethan?
00:06:12Ethan? Why would I bring up that useless boy? The Royal Magic Legion is building a new training camp in
00:06:18the 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. Fifty gold coin in settlement.
00:06:31They're tearing down our house?
00:06:33That's right.
00:06:38No, we can't. If our house is gone, Ethan will have nowhere to come home to. I have to go
00:06:44back and protect it.
00:06:53Welcome, Commander!
00:06:56Commander, the clearance work in the Northern Territory is nearly complete.
00:07:00There's one household that refuses to sign the eviction notice. Shall we... force the matter?
00:07:05The Legion does not do forced evictions. I'll speak to them myself.
00:07:11Yes, sir.
00:07:12Yes, sir.
00:07:23Have you ever met Ethan?
00:07:36Auntie Lucy! What 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.
00:07:43Your commander has surely met many people. Perhaps he's seen my Ethan. Let me just go and ask.
00:07:57Wake up! Your son is dead. Get out of my sight.
00:08:01No. Ethan isn't dead. He'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. Let 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. I'll arrange it at once.
00:08:46Wait here for my news. I'm going to Frost Village myself.
00:08:49Contact me the moment you have something. Understood.
00:08:52Portals won't do for the road ahead. Find me a carriage.
00:09:23Mom! Mom!
00:09:26Mom! Mom!
00:09:26Father, mother, are you here? It's been 20 years. Have you been alright?
00:09:32Ethan, today is your 25th birthday. Where are you? I miss you so much.
00:09:43Thomas, this time, did you find anything?
00:09:47Nothing yet. But Ethan turns 25 today. Perhaps once the birthday passes, he'll find his own way home.
00:09:53Yes.
00:09:55Maybe he's married by now.
00:09:58Maybe we're already grandparents.
00:10:01If I can't find him in this kingdom, I'll go to the next.
00:10:04If not the next, until I search the whole world.
00:10:07Ethan is coming back.
00:10:09He will.
00:10:11Now, no more tears.
00:10:13Victor is coming today.
00:10:15They haven't visited in years. Why come today of all days on Ethan's birthday?
00:10:19Perhaps they miss him too.
00:10:33Ethan.
00:10:36I have a pony!
00:10:39I'm a cavalry soldier. Ha!
00:10:42Ha ha ha.
00:10:52Ethan, this is your birthday present this year.
00:11:05Commander, your disguise, as requested.
00:11:10Good.
00:11:11Exactly what I need to stay low.
00:11:14Where is the household that refused to sign the eviction notice?
00:11:17Commander, a mid-ranking officer in the Northern Division claims to be their relative.
00:11:21He has volunteered to speak with them again.
00:11:25Fine. Let him try. I'll walk around.
00:11:28Notify me when there's news.
00:11:29Yes, sir.
00:11:31Garrett cannot be trusted.
00:11:33I need to see for myself.
00:11:44Mama! Mama!
00:11:47This place. It feels so familiar. I've been here before.
00:11:59Victor, welcome. Come in.
00:12:01Enough pleasanties. My son is here to discuss the demolition.
00:12:06Sign this. Fifty gold coins, up front.
00:12:09No. This is Ethan's home.
00:12:13If he comes back and there's nothing here, how will he find us?
00:12:16That's right. We stay and wait for our son.
00:12:20Fifty gold coins and you still won't sign?
00:12:23Have you ever seen that much money in your life?
00:12:26I don't want money. I want my son.
00:12:30Don't push your luck.
00:12:31Lucy!
00:12:32An ice crystal crest formed of magic.
00:12:37Where did you get this? Did you steal it?
00:12:39No! You can't take that. It's how I'll find my Ethan.
00:12:41Want the crest? Kneel and beg. Then maybe I'll consider it.
00:12:44You go too far!
00:12:48Thomas!
00:12:51Believe me, I'll smash it right now.
00:13:04That crest is my only hope of finding Ethan.
00:13:08Please. Please.
00:13:11Look at her.
00:13:12She's actually kneeling for some boy who may be dead.
00:13:17Give it back.
00:13:20I'll give it back.
00:13:22Sign first.
00:13:30Could this be?
00:13:32Will I find my parents inside?
00:13:40No!
00:13:41I will not give up our home!
00:13:44Then
00:13:45I smash it.
00:13:47Stop!
00:13:48The crest is the only way Ethan will know me.
00:13:51If I lose it, I'll never find my son again.
00:13:54All right. I'll sign.
00:13:56Then crawl over here to do it.
00:14:03Good heavens!
00:14:05All that for a pathetic brat!
00:14:08What can she do?
00:14:09It's her only chance at finding that wretch.
00:14:14Now, give it back to me.
00:14:17Want it?
00:14:18Crawl over and beg.
00:14:31Please, give it back.
00:14:33Please, give it back.
00:14:34I told you.
00:14:35Just sign the notice.
00:14:37Why make things hard?
00:14:39You promised.
00:14:40You defied me.
00:14:42You chose that cursed brat.
00:14:43This is the price.
00:14:45You will never see him.
00:14:47Never!
00:14:48No!
00:14:49No!
00:14:52I'll make sure you can never find that bastard.
00:14:55Not for the rest of your life.
00:15:02That pattern.
00:15:04Still defying me?
00:15:06Then die!
00:15:24What a dramatic entrance.
00:15:25It's just a grimy blacksmith.
00:15:27Mind your own business or I'll beat you too.
00:15:30You'd strike someone?
00:15:31Bold of you.
00:15:33Legion code forbids the use of force against civilians.
00:15:36Did you forget every word of it?
00:15:39What does a blacksmith know about the law?
00:15:54Wake up, Thomas.
00:15:55What do we do?
00:16:02Are you all right?
00:16:03I'm fine.
00:16:05Marcus was forcing me to sign the eviction notice.
00:16:09This man stopped him.
00:16:13So you clearly know Legion law.
00:16:15I beg you, help us further.
00:16:18That eviction notice was signed under duress.
00:16:20You signed it!
00:16:21No taking it back!
00:16:23Please, sir.
00:16:25We cannot lose this house.
00:16:27We have to stay and wait for our son.
00:16:30I will see that justice is done.
00:16:33You have my word.
00:16:41Could they really be?
00:16:44Where did you get that ice crystal crest?
00:16:46My son made it when he was young.
00:16:49The first time he ever used magic.
00:16:51He's been gone for 20 years.
00:16:55Father and I had it made into a pendant just for you.
00:17:14Ethan.
00:17:17You're my Ethan.
00:17:20This isn't a dream, man.
00:17:24It isn't.
00:17:27My son is home.
00:17:28Father, mother, I've been gone for so long.
00:17:31I've made you search so hard.
00:17:34Forgive me.
00:17:37As long as you're home, nothing else matters.
00:17:40Your brat is back.
00:17:42This isn't worth celebrating.
00:17:44Right.
00:17:46He's just a blacksmith who hammers plows.
00:17:50Today I am reunited with my parents.
00:17:52I will not let the likes of you ruin it.
00:17:55Get out.
00:17:56Big talk.
00:17:57Do you know who my son is?
00:17:59He's a mid-ranking officer in the Northern Division of the Legion.
00:18:03A man with a future.
00:18:08You're in the Legion?
00:18:10Who is your superior?
00:18:13What's wrong?
00:18:14Never heard of Lord Garret?
00:18:16Governor of the Northern Territory?
00:18:18I suppose a backwell peasant like you wouldn't know your betters.
00:18:20Marcus was kind to even teach you Lord Garret's name.
00:18:23He's just a governor.
00:18:25One word from me and he'll come crawling.
00:18:31How dare you!
00:18:33Who do you think you are, huh?
00:18:35Don't you know?
00:18:36Lord Garret runs this entire territory.
00:18:39What would a common blacksmith know?
00:18:41My son is strong.
00:18:42He belongs in the Legion.
00:18:44And Lord Garret pries him above all others.
00:18:46You ignorant fool.
00:18:48My beloved is Lord Garret's own confidant.
00:18:51Do you understand what that means?
00:18:53It means I can do whatever I want here.
00:18:58They hold no respect for the law.
00:19:00They treat the Legion's code like nothing.
00:19:03What do we do?
00:19:04We can't fight them.
00:19:05No.
00:19:06You can't!
00:19:08You are a Legion soldier.
00:19:10You were sworn to protect the people.
00:19:11Look at what you're doing.
00:19:12Protect them?
00:19:13Should we carry lowbron filth on our backs?
00:19:15What use are you?
00:19:16You bring nothing but shame to your parents.
00:19:18My Ethan is a fine man.
00:19:20Fine?
00:19:21A blacksmith's life is worth nothing.
00:19:23Ethan, beg us.
00:19:24Maybe Marcus can find you some work in the Legion.
00:19:27Beg you?
00:19:27You're not worth it.
00:19:29Don't get proud, Ethan.
00:19:31Kneel down and lick the mud off my boot.
00:19:33Do that, and I'll consider it.
00:19:35Oh, Marcus, how generous.
00:19:38Let me think.
00:19:39What works it to you?
00:19:40Scrubbing latrins?
00:19:43You've gone far enough!
00:19:45Kneel and you get a job.
00:19:46We're not lying!
00:19:47Kneel before you.
00:19:49Not a chance.
00:19:53What is this blacksmith going on about?
00:19:56My son is Captain of the Legion Honor Guard and Deputy Commander of the Ceremonial Escort.
00:20:01I have a dozen soldiers under me.
00:20:04Every one of them an elite fighter.
00:20:06We're only holding back because you're family.
00:20:08Count yourselves lucky.
00:20:10Marcus has too much power.
00:20:12We can't fight him.
00:20:13I won't let Ethan get hurt.
00:20:15Today is a good day.
00:20:16No more fighting.
00:20:18I've made sweet cakes and stew.
00:20:22Let us sit and eat.
00:20:23This slob?
00:20:25My pigs eat better than this.
00:20:26Father, they're hiding the good stuff somewhere.
00:20:30Move!
00:20:51Happy birthday, Ethan.
00:21:03This is our son's birthday gift.
00:21:05Every year we prepare a birthday gift.
00:21:07Birthday gift?
00:21:08How pitiful.
00:21:09Give it back!
00:21:09Worthless old woman!
00:21:10Stop!
00:21:11Gutter trash!
00:21:14Get out!
00:21:15You are not welcome here!
00:21:17How dare you speak to me that way!
00:21:26Please, don't crush it!
00:21:28Please, I beg you!
00:21:32Kneel.
00:21:34Pick up every piece.
00:21:36Fix it.
00:21:37Then kneel and beg my parents for forgiveness.
00:21:40Refuse, and I will make you pay back a hundred for.
00:21:45Ethan, have you hammered your brain to scrap?
00:21:48This house is no longer yours.
00:21:51You're nothing but a pack of homeless strays.
00:21:58What the hell?
00:21:59Why is it suddenly so cold?
00:22:03Quaking in your boots, old man?
00:22:05Worried your son's about to die?
00:22:07I'll say this once more.
00:22:09Kneel.
00:22:10Apologize.
00:22:11Now, before you regret this.
00:22:13A threat?
00:22:14You don't scare me.
00:22:15Look at this.
00:22:16Cost me a hundred gold coins.
00:22:18This can summon a beast more powerful than any mage.
00:22:21You don't stand a chance.
00:22:23Count yourselves lucky to have this beast be the last thing you see.
00:22:26A Karin Beast summoning stone?
00:22:29Five copper bends at the Legion supply depot.
00:22:31You paid a hundred gold for that trash?
00:22:33What a fool.
00:22:34How dare you?
00:22:35Think you'll survive this?
00:22:37Legion Prohibition.
00:22:38Article 42.
00:22:39The untrauthorized possession and summoning of aggressive beasts in civilian zones is forbidden.
00:22:43Violation results in permanent discharge and life imprisonment.
00:22:46You quote the law at me?
00:22:48I am the law here.
00:22:51You're all Lubon filth.
00:22:53Every last one of you could die and the Legion wouldn't blink.
00:23:12What do we do?
00:23:14No.
00:23:15My Ethan is here.
00:23:16I will not retreat.
00:23:19Ethan, run!
00:23:24Don't be afraid, son.
00:23:26Your mother and I will hold it back.
00:23:28Just run.
00:23:30I won't leave you.
00:23:32Not when we just found each other.
00:23:37Child.
00:23:39To have you as the last thing I see is enough.
00:23:43I just wish I had the chance to watch you grow.
00:23:54Enough of this touching reunion.
00:23:56No one leaves here alive.
00:24:00Why weep over a blacksmith?
00:24:03He's worthless.
00:24:04Ethan.
00:24:05No matter who you've become.
00:24:08You are still your father's pride.
00:24:12Father.
00:24:13Mother.
00:24:13I promise you.
00:24:16No one will harm you today.
00:24:19Still boasting.
00:24:23Take him down!
00:24:25Take him down!
00:24:57What's wrong with you?
00:24:59Attack!
00:25:00Attack!
00:25:13Where is it?
00:25:14Where did the beast go?
00:25:16Hey!
00:25:17You useless creature!
00:25:19Get out here!
00:25:20My hundred gold coins!
00:25:24Why?
00:25:25Doesn't nobody like him have magic?
00:25:28Impossible.
00:25:30Three hundred years and not one ice maid in the whole empire!
00:25:35How can such a long dead power appear in this wretch?
00:25:42I know what this is.
00:25:44Dark magic.
00:25:45Forbidden black magic!
00:25:47So that's where you've been all these years?
00:25:50Walking a cursed path?
00:25:52Ethan!
00:25:53You sold your soul for this filth?
00:25:55No.
00:25:56My son is not that kind of man!
00:26:00Stop making excuses.
00:26:01Your son is finished.
00:26:04Dark magic is punishable by death.
00:26:07My love.
00:26:08Come quickly.
00:26:10There's a heretic using black magic.
00:26:12Hurry.
00:26:12What?
00:26:13I'm on my way!
00:26:14Hear that?
00:26:17Sienna is coming.
00:26:18She's Lord Garrett's own confidant.
00:26:21You can rot in the dungeon!
00:26:37Who dares practice dark magic?
00:26:39The Legion will not tolerate this.
00:26:44My love!
00:26:45You're here!
00:26:47This wretch killed my beast with magic!
00:26:50He tried to kill me!
00:26:52Someone laid a hand on my man in the Northern Territory.
00:26:56I'll make him pay.
00:26:58You're finished, Crossiana.
00:27:00And you crossed the entire Northern Legion.
00:27:05What are you smiling at?
00:27:07You think you're walking out of here alive?
00:27:09You're the one who hurt my man?
00:27:11Lowborn filth.
00:27:13I'll make sure you beg to die!
00:27:25I'll make sure you beg to die!
00:27:29There has been no Ice Macer in this kingdom for 300 years.
00:27:33And you thought you could fake it?
00:27:35Fool.
00:27:35Your ignorance only shows how low you rank in the Legion.
00:27:38You've never had access to the top.
00:27:40How dare you!
00:27:41Lord Garrett himself says my word is law here!
00:27:44I have the power to execute filth like you!
00:27:49Is that what Lord Garrett teaches you to do?
00:27:51You lowborn animal!
00:27:53How dare you speak his name so freely!
00:27:56Is he so great?
00:27:57Then I'll have him come to me right now.
00:28:04Garrett!
00:28:05Come!
00:28:06Now!
00:28:11Garrett!
00:28:12Come!
00:28:13Now!
00:28:19Assemble the full guard!
00:28:20Move!
00:28:21With me!
00:28:24Practicing dark magic is a capital offense.
00:28:27Arrest them all!
00:28:29Take them to the dungeon.
00:28:30They face execution.
00:28:32Father, mother, don't be afraid.
00:28:34I'll protect you.
00:28:36Once they're dead, that 50 gold settlement is all ours!
00:28:44I can't fight here.
00:28:46I won't destroy the house.
00:28:47This is the home my parents guarded their whole lives.
00:28:50I'll go with you.
00:28:51But my parents stay.
00:28:53No!
00:28:53If you go with them, you'll die!
00:28:55Don't worry.
00:28:56We're your mother and father.
00:28:58We'll protect you.
00:28:59Ha!
00:29:00Lost your nerve?
00:29:01Where's all that big talk now?
00:29:03Fine.
00:29:04Those two old wrecks won't last much longer anyway.
00:29:13Father, mother.
00:29:14Don't worry.
00:29:16I'll be back soon.
00:29:18Ethan!
00:29:19Ethan!
00:29:20Honor his fetal devotion, then.
00:29:22Trade your lives for his.
00:29:24Ha!
00:29:25Ha!
00:29:26Ha!
00:29:27Ha!
00:29:28Ha!
00:29:28Ha!
00:29:28Ha!
00:29:29Ha!
00:29:30Ha!
00:29:36Where is he?
00:29:38Tall, handsome, dressed in rough cloth and a leather apron.
00:29:40Where did he go?
00:29:41Your men took him.
00:29:43They said they were taking him to the wasteland for execution.
00:29:46Please save my son.
00:29:47Ex-
00:29:48Execution?
00:29:52Execution?
00:29:57Thomas, what do we do?
00:29:58Don't panic.
00:29:59Remember?
00:30:00Ethan was betrothed as a child.
00:30:03You mean Isabella's family?
00:30:05They were as poor as us back then, but they've grown rich.
00:30:08Frost Village wealthiest family.
00:30:09They cut ties with us years ago.
00:30:11They're our last hope.
00:30:13Perhaps they will save Ethan for old time's sake.
00:30:30Chose 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.
00:30:46Small 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.
00:30:54New shoes for my parents, too.
00:31:00I warned you.
00:31:02Cross the Legion and you pay a price you cannot afford.
00:31:05What right do you have to speak for the Legion?
00:31:10Ethan, still boasting with death at your door?
00:31:18No.
00:31:20Death is at yours.
00:31:37This fool actually thinks he's the commander.
00:31:40The commander?
00:31:41Have you ever even seen the commander?
00:31:43Only someone of Lord Garrett's rank would even qualify.
00:31:46Your rank is too low.
00:31:48You're not worthy.
00:31:50You vile creature.
00:31:54Scared now?
00:31:55Beg me and maybe I'll let you off.
00:31:57Is this all you can muster?
00:31:59You truly think this is enough?
00:32:01Gutter trash.
00:32:02There you go again with the big talk.
00:32:05Make 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?
00:32:25Scared.
00:32:26Too late.
00:32:27Is that all you've got?
00:32:29Against you?
00:32:30More than enough.
00:32:31This level?
00:32:33I could put it out with a flick of my fingers.
00:32:35You arrogant wretch.
00:32:36I'll grind you to ash.
00:32:38Combine!
00:32:40You're doomed.
00:32:41You're doomed!
00:32:48How is this possible?
00:32:53This...
00:32:54This can't be!
00:32:55Help!
00:32:56I can't move!
00:32:57Let 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!
00:33:18This 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!
00:33:28This 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!
00:33:57You lawless animals!
00:34:01He's just a penniless blacksmith, Commander!
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?
00:34:25Sir, look at how he's dressed.
00:34:27How could he possibly be the Commander?
00:34:30Commander Marcusis, I can bear witness.
00:34:32He'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!
00:34:52The new...
00:34:54The new Commander?
00:34:55This can't be...
00:34:59Effective immediately, you are stripped of all military rank.
00:35:04You are demoted to the lowest common class.
00:35:07No!
00:35:09Commander Garrett, I was wrong!
00:35:15He's the Commander.
00:35:16Commander, does 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.
00:35:31You 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,
00:35:39I'd never have crossed the Commander!
00:35:41Take them away.
00:35:52Commander, Victor and Marcus' family are in custody.
00:35:56Also, a contact reports your parents just left home
00:35:59and went to the estate of Isabella, Frost Village's wealthiest family.
00:36:02So I have a betrothed, do I?
00:36:05Yes, Commander.
00:36:06Arranged when you were young.
00:36:07Make it happen.
00:36:09I have a more important task for you.

00:55:47Grand Commander 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.
00:56:10Commander! 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.
00:56:40Not 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.
00:57:28Exactly. 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.
00:57:47Can 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!
00:59:00Every man who reaches the top has blood on his hands.
00:59:04That's why you'll never be Ethan's equal! Useless!
00:59:12You are the brother I trust.
00:59:19You'll always be worthless.
00:59:44Father!
00:59:45Arrest Northern Territory Governor Garrett and his son Fitz. Take them to prison at once.
00:59:49Have them confess every crime, one by one.
00:59:55You know what to do with those who refuse.
00:59:58Ethan, listen to me! My family has money! I'll give you whatever you want! Take it all!
01:00:02This was all my father's doing! None of it was me!
01:00:12Get them to the healer! Now!
01:00:18You.
01:00:24Commander!
01:00:37Thank you for saving the Northern Territory.
01:00:41It was my duty.
01:00:43No.
01:00:44You made a great sacrifice.
01:00:46We are grateful.
01:00:47Commander!
01:00:48My parents live by the city wall.
01:00:50If the beasts had broken through, they would have been the first to die.
01:00:54You saved our families.
01:00:55We owe you our lives.
01:00:59Yes.
01:01:00We are all wall guards.
01:01:02Without you, every one of my brothers would have died.
01:01:05Rise.
01:01:06On behalf of the Legion, I thank you for your service.
01:01:09Day after day.
01:01:29Ethan!
01:01:31Mother!
01:01:34What happened?
01:01:35Where am I?
01:01:37You lost too much blood and fainted.
01:01:39The Commander healed you with magic.
01:01:40You're safe now.
01:01:41He has some old ailments.
01:01:43He needs to take medicine, but he will be fine as well.
01:01:47Ethan.
01:01:49The King wishes to see all of you.
01:01:55The King, the Prince ofono!
01:01:56The King!
01:01:56Thomas!
01:01:57You have shown courage and kindness.
01:01:59You were willing to sacrifice yourselves to protect the people of the Northern Territory.
01:02:03The Kingdom of Floria is moon honoured to have subjects such as you.
01:02:06Therefore, I hereby forstro upon Thomas the title of Earl, and upon Lucy the title of Countess.
01:02:13Thank you, Your Majesty.
01:02:17Legion Deputy Commander Sam.
01:02:25Sam, you betrayed the Legion, injured your commander, and dealt a blow to the Legion's honor.
01:02:31However, on account of your remorse and service in rescuing the Earl and Countess,
01:02:34the Tribunal has weighed your crimes and judged them cleared.
01:02:38Effective today, you are relieved of all duties.
01:02:43Thank you, Your Majesty.
01:02:48Ethan.
01:02:52I am here.
01:02:54You were fearless in the face of death, and you saved the people of the Northern Territory.
01:03:00You are worthy to be Grand Commander.
01:03:04It was only my duty.
01:03:08I hereby declare,
01:03:10my most precious daughter, Princess Rowena, shall be given in marriage to you.
01:03:14It is my honor to wed the Princess.
01:03:16I hereby swear,
01:03:18so long as my banner flies over the Northern Territory,
01:03:20no war shall ever reach the hem of Your Highness's gown.
01:03:23One final matter.
01:03:24I declare that Ethan is, from this day forward, Crown Prince of the Kingdom.
01:03:37This is as far as you go.
01:03:39Your parents are waiting for you.
01:03:41Are you truly leaving?
01:03:43Stay and think it over.
01:03:44The Legion needs you.
01:03:48Not after what I've done.
01:03:49We fought side by side, and I nearly destroyed their families.
01:03:54They wouldn't want to see me.
01:03:56But in the end, you still-
01:03:58Ethan,
01:03:58I'm going out to find myself.
01:04:00Train,
01:04:01maybe one day I'll come back stronger than you.
01:04:04Very well.
01:04:05I'll be here waiting for your challenge.
01:04:08Perhaps I will be the one to claim victory.
01:04:11I won't hold back.
01:04:13I'll be waiting.
01:04:26Ethan?
01:04:28Father.
01:04:29Mother.
01:04:29Are you alright?
01:04:30I was worried about you.
01:04:31I'm fine.
01:04:32I'm just happy.
01:04:33From now on, we will never be separated again.
01:04:35Yes.
01:04:36Our family will always be together.
01:04:38Always.
