00:48ARCHMASTER ADAM! ARCHMASTER ADAM!
00:51ARCHMASTER ADAM!
00:53ARCHMASTER ADAM!
00:55ARCHMASTER ADAM!
00:57My story begins seven years ago.
01:12What did I tell you about your stupid magic?
01:15Ivy wanted some meat. That's for my grandson!
01:18You girls don't deserve it!
01:21This family's future is sitting right here.
01:24My grandson, he's gonna be a knight in the king's court!
01:28Maybe just a little bit for the girls.
01:30I said shut your mouth, stupid woman!
01:37They're just gonna marry out anyway, Ma. What's the point?
01:43Luke, they're your sisters!
01:48Luke's right! Soon as they marry, they're gone!
01:52Ain't gonna give this family a damning!
01:55Luke's our only future!
01:57Open in the name of the king!
02:05Luke, report to the castle for knight training within seven days.
02:09No delays.
02:13Father, I'm actually gonna be a knight!
02:17That's my boy!
02:20Oh, my golden boy! I knew it! I always knew it!
02:25Wait, Father, Grandma. The training camp, we have to pay.
02:29And I'll need coins for the journey.
02:31All told, a hundred pence or so.
02:34A hundred pence? Where in God's name of us to get that much money?
02:36You can get the money, yeah?
02:38I mean, once I'm a knight, we're Gentry. We're somebody!
02:43Luke's right. Whatever it takes, you're going.
02:48First thing tomorrow, I'm selling your sister.
02:55Father, what did you just say?
02:57Selling you to fund my knight training.
02:59What, you dare?
03:00Sell the older one first. She'll marry out anyway. We'll get a better price.
03:04No! Don't you dare!
03:05You raise your voice again, and I'll sell you tonight!
03:10Which one of you is Anna?
03:12By the king's command, you have been accepted into the Ravenswild Academy of Magic!
03:26You did it, sis! All those knights, it paid off!
03:33Luke's training costs are killing us! You're not going! End of it!
03:38Grandma, the Academy's free, and I can earn my own way there.
03:41Don't even think about it. Your place is marrying well, bringing in silver for Luke.
03:47Yeah. Worry about keeping your future husband happy instead.
03:55Father, I'm not asking for a single penny from this family.
03:58Going to Ravensville, learning magic, it's all I've ever dreamed of. Please, just let me go.
04:05Fifteen years we fed you! Time you pay us back!
04:12I never asked to be born. Fifteen years, treated like dirt. Luke, always Luke. He gets a knight's train and
04:19you'd sell me for it.
04:20But me? The greatest magic academy in the kingdom, and you won't let me go.
04:24Because we're girls, so we're nothing, invisible, worthless!
04:32Look at you. Stubborn old mule, selling your own daughter like cattle. You're no father. Never were.
04:43David, enough!
04:44Don't hit her! Please don't hit her!
04:47Go get the old Higgins next door. We're selling her now.
04:52I won't let you sell me.
04:55I'm going to Ravensville to learn magic, whether you like it or not!
05:12What are you doing? Let me go! Let me go!
05:16You want to be wild? Then we'll find you a man to teach you some manners!
05:21No! Please!
05:24Luke told you? Yeah, a hundred pence. She's yours.
05:33Stay away from me.
05:59Dark magic?
06:01You're... a witch!
06:03You should be burned!
06:04There's a witch in here!
06:06Help!
06:14Don't be afraid.
06:15He just passed out.
06:18Who are you?
06:19Denver.
06:20Master Dedvin?
06:21The Magus of Ravenswill?
06:22I've dreamed of going to Ravenswill my whole life.
06:24Of becoming a mage.
06:25Like you.
06:26That's why I'm here.
06:28You have boundless magic.
06:29But potential means nothing without control.
06:32You need to learn how to release it.
06:34Come with me.
06:41Vanish.
06:55They're coming, sweetheart.
06:56Take this.
06:57Go!
06:58Our crew.
06:59The one we shared.
07:01Promise me.
07:02No matter what.
07:03You'll remember us.
07:06Vanish before they catch up!
07:07Go!
07:09Who's worse?
07:11Who's worse?
07:12Let's go!
07:12Stop right there!
07:14No!
07:16Mama!
07:17Ivy!
07:19I swear.
07:20I'll come back.
07:21I'll take you away from this hell.
07:42Non- Rein-
08:03For outstanding performance, Anna is appointed teaching assistant.
08:08She'll help take your magic to the next level.
08:18That's them. Anna's been gone a year.
08:20Never came back once.
08:21She went mad with dark magic.
08:23Old Higgins saw it with his own eyes, killed someone with it.
08:26She's a wicked witch.
08:28Look what your daughter did.
08:30That little wretch brought shame on all of us.
08:35Anna's not like that.
08:36She would never...
08:36Then why is she afraid to come home?
08:38She sets foot here.
08:40I'll burn her first in line.
09:02Take the throne.
09:04Rise as Archmite.
09:06Let's go.
09:11This has to go.
09:33Cars by Anna!
09:36Cars by Anna!
09:38Cars by Anna!
09:40Seven years.
09:42Mama.
09:44Ivy.
09:45Three more months and I can leave Ravensville.
09:48I'm coming home.
09:49Finally.
09:51Archmaster Anna!
09:52The protective ward, it's officially being cast today.
09:54In your homeland.
09:55Good.
09:56Once it's sealed.
09:57No beasts.
09:58No sickness.
09:59Storms turn aside.
10:00Tell James to push forward.
10:01Faster.
10:02Understood.
10:03One more thing.
10:03Your grandmother.
10:04She's turning 70.
10:05The family's planning a celebration.
10:07Will you attend?
10:07She wouldn't want me there.
10:08And I still can't leave Ravensville for three months.
10:13There's something else.
10:16About your sister.
10:21Ivy?
10:22Your brother's getting married.
10:23And your father.
10:25To pay for it.
10:26He's selling her off.
10:27To a criminal.
10:27What?
10:29She's just a child.
10:31If they go through with this, her life is over.
10:34I have to go back.
10:35Now.
10:38I have to go back.
10:40Now.
10:41Go.
10:43I'll handle everything else here.
10:47You're my wife now.
10:48I'm with you always.
10:49Let me handle things here.
10:51Then I'll come find you.
10:55Thanks for coming, folks, to celebrate my mother's big day.
10:58I've got more good news to share.
11:00My youngest girl, Ivy.
11:02I've found her a perfect husband.
11:05Henry!
11:05Come on up!
11:06Today, I've betrothed my daughter, Ivy, to this fine young man, Henry.
11:13Henry?
11:14The criminal?
11:15The one with all those charges?
11:16That's him.
11:17They've got royal connections, they say.
11:19Ivy marries him and his family's set for life.
11:21I'll put in a good word for you at court, boy.
11:24She's yours now.
11:25All yours.
11:26No!
11:27I won't marry him!
11:28You'll marry Henry whether you like it or not.
11:30I know what this is.
11:32Marry me off.
11:33He kills me.
11:34You take my blood.
11:36Offer it to the king's niece.
11:38Farther your way into royalty!
11:42Shut your mouth, you stupid girl!
11:45Enough of your nonsense!
11:46Well?
11:46Take what's yours.
11:48Come on, darling.
11:49Time for our sweet night.
11:50No way!
11:51He's a criminal.
11:51Everyone knows.
11:53Gambling, rape, murder, he's done it all.
11:55You're destroying her!
11:56This is for her own good, I tell you.
11:58Henry's connected to the royals.
12:00You don't say no to that.
12:01Get your mother out of here.
12:04Over my dead body.
12:05One daughter ruined.
12:07Now you're after the next.
12:09Anna practices dark magic.
12:11She's a witch, and witches burn.
12:13I hereby banish her from this village.
12:15Forever.
12:16If she returns, she burns.
12:18Please!
12:19No!
12:20My lord, I'm begging you!
12:21Burn the witch!
12:22Burn Anna!
12:23Then take me!
12:25I'm her mother!
12:26I raised her!
12:27If anyone's to blame, it's me!
12:29Just leave Anna alone!
12:30No!
12:32No!
12:32You're the mother of a witch.
12:34That makes you guilty.
12:35You'll stand trial.
12:36Caesar!
12:40Mama!
12:41No!
12:41No!
12:50No!
12:56No!
12:59No!
13:03No!
13:07No!
13:08Oh, my God.
13:20Mama.
13:22Anna.
13:23You animals.
13:24Who dared touch my mother?
13:26You demon.
13:27You dare come back?
13:30You'll be the death of us all.
13:32I came back for one reason.
13:34To take Mama and Ivy away from you.
13:36From all of you.
13:37Like hell you will.
13:39Ivy's married now.
13:40You can do nothing about it.
13:42Sold Ivy like you sold me.
13:44What, still not close enough to the royal?
13:46Shut up.
13:47You put a spell on them, didn't you?
13:49Mother and Ivy.
13:50Turning them against us.
13:51They're choosing freedom.
13:52Something you wouldn't understand.
13:54Dark magic's poisoned your mind.
13:55We all know it.
13:57You're a witch.
13:57I learned magic.
13:59To patrol you, use it.
14:01I never made it as a knight.
14:02Probably because you cursed me.
14:04No.
14:06Because you're useless.
14:06You're a liar.
14:07They're being cursed me.
14:09Let God strike me down right now.
14:13Hear that?
14:14Even God's had enough.
14:16Anything else to say?
14:17God's wrath?
14:18It's coming for us.
14:20The village is doomed.
14:22She'll destroy us all.
14:24We'll die because of her.
14:25You are a witch.
14:27You've angered God himself.
14:28You must pay.
14:30Seize her.
14:30She'll answer for this.
14:31For all of us.
14:46Don't hurt my daughter.
14:56The sack is glowing.
14:59The sack is glowing.
15:07Sis.
15:08You're amazing.
15:12Anna, how did you learn to do that?
15:15Long story.
15:16But trust me.
15:17I didn't learn dark magic.
15:21I knew it.
15:24I knew you wouldn't.
15:26You think I'm stupid like her?
15:28You expect me to believe your crap?
15:31We all saw it.
15:33Dark magic.
15:34Then where were you?
15:35Seven years.
15:37Not a single visit.
15:39What are you hiding?
15:40I couldn't leave Ravenswood.
15:42I was training.
15:44And now...
15:47I'm something more.
15:50I am Archmast.
15:58Did she really say Archmast?
16:00Archmaester's answer only to the king himself.
16:02A farm girl like her tied to the crown?
16:05Please.
16:06Sweetheart.
16:09Is it true?
16:12You're really an Archmast.
16:17It's true, Mama.
16:18Oh, my baby.
16:22I'm super proud of you.
16:27You actually believe her?
16:29Gods, you're gullible.
16:33Seven years and you're an Archmaster?
16:35What?
16:35Did you buy a diploma?
16:37Takes decades to reach that rank.
16:39He's right.
16:40Your brother's been grinding for years.
16:41Still not a knight.
16:42And you expect us to believe you're an Archmaster?
16:45Archmaesters serve the king himself.
16:47You think you're better than Luke?
16:49You?
16:54So you don't believe me?
16:55Oh, I believe you.
16:56Believe you joined some cult.
16:57Lost your mind to dark magic.
16:58So here's the deal.
16:59You leave now and never come back.
17:01Or we burn you.
17:03I'm not letting you anywhere near my future wife!
17:06Flora's coming.
17:07Any minute now.
17:08Did you hear that?
17:10Luke's bride, Flora, is the king's niece!
17:15We'll be royalty!
17:18Still here?
17:19Fine.
17:20Don't blame me when blood's on your hands.
17:23I'll go.
17:25But Mama and Ivy come with me.
17:32Ivy's mine.
17:33You don't touch her.
17:39You destroy your brother's future!
17:41Is that what you want?
17:52Luke!
17:53What's the meaning of this?
17:55You were supposed to greet me.
17:59Flora, I've run into a little problem.
18:01I swear this will never happen again.
18:06Uh, who is this woman?
18:13Uh, I don't know her.
18:15She has nothing to do with me.
18:17You must be Flora.
18:19I'm Anna, Luke's sister.
18:22You're Anna?
18:23The witch who practiced dark magic?
18:25You're mistaken.
18:27What's going on, Luke?
18:29Didn't you tell me this filth was dead?
18:32Honey, don't get upset.
18:34We'll kick her out right now.
18:36Yes, yes.
18:37All being his plurus.
18:38Yes, darling, calm down.
18:40You want me to calm down?
18:45Oh!
18:47You said you could find a pure spirit to help me recover.
18:50That's why I agreed to marry you.
18:52I didn't lie to you.
18:55It's all this witch's fault.
18:58My lady, I had her captured.
19:00But I received a fine notation.
19:02But that witch took her away.
19:04You can take my daughter any time.
19:06Yes, it's all her fault.
19:21My arm!
19:22You're a witch!
19:23A devil!
19:26Where is the witch?
19:31Master James.
19:33The guardian mage of our village.
19:35Archmach Anna sent him.
19:36He's the one casting the protective ward.
19:40That woman looks familiar.
19:43Could it be?
19:45Who is she?
19:46That's Anna, David's girl.
19:49You're the so-called witch?
19:51She came back without warning, Master.
19:53Please, get rid of her.
19:54That's right.
19:54We didn't ask her to come back.
19:55Dr. James, you can't cast the ward with a witch here.
19:58Please, deal with her first.
20:00For the last time, I am not a witch.
20:04She's the one who took my arm!
20:05Devil worshipped her.
20:07You dare deny it?
20:11You really don't recognize me?
20:13What?
20:14Learn a few tricks and suddenly you're an archmaste?
20:18I am archmast.
20:20I sent my deputy Alice to assign you to this village.
20:24To cast my ward.
20:27Archmast Anna?
20:30Don't be fooled by her.
20:32We all just saw her use black magic.
20:35How could she possibly be the archmast?
20:37Witch!
20:44Besides, Archmast Anna is my personal portmage.
20:48She's with me every single day.
20:50How could this woman be?
20:51You devil!
20:52I almost fell for your lies.
20:55You say Archmast Anna is your personal portmage?
20:58Funny, I've never heard of that.
21:00If you're really her, prove it.
21:04That's easy enough.
21:05I can stop the array formation right now.
21:09Fine, go ahead.
21:10I'd like to see what you're capable of.
21:23This place is back corrupted by black magic.
21:26We must speed up the array formation.
21:29Had enough of your little act?
21:31Archmast Anna's protective array is immensely powerful.
21:35It repels wild beasts, blocks plague, and turns even wind and snow away.
21:39Your petty black magic can't even scratch it.
21:42You can choose not to believe me now.
21:44But when the gift I sent arrives, you'll have no choice but to believe.
21:48Gift?
21:49We should be thankful if you don't curse us with your black magic.
21:52Master James, take this lying witch away at once.
21:55Yes!
21:56Don't let her ruin my plans!
21:58Whoever helps me catch this witch gets a hefty reward!
22:09Don't you dare touch my mother and sister!
22:13The gift has arrived!
22:15A special gift from Archmast Anna.
22:24This is my gift to you.
22:30The ancestral stone?
22:33That's right.
22:34Lord God, I thank you.
22:36Our village's guardian, the one that's been missing for years?
22:40You're kidding.
22:41Please.
22:42Probably some dark magic trick she cooked up to fool us all.
22:45Silence, you foolish woman!
22:47You know nothing.
22:49Those crystals hold the blessings, the memories of our ancestors, generations past.
22:53No magic can forge this.
22:56Yeah, yeah, yeah.
22:57What have you just said?
22:59An insult to every ancestor we have.
23:02You will show respect.
23:04Guards!
23:05Seize them!
23:06Sheriff, please.
23:07Forgive us just this once.
23:10Yes, Sheriff, please.
23:11My grandmother meant no harm.
23:13She just didn't want us fooled by this witch.
23:15You meant no disrespect, Sheriff.
23:17I swear it.
23:17Just give us a chance.
23:18Let us off, please.
23:19I'll let it pass once.
23:22But speak against the stone again, and you answer to me.
23:27Sheriff never gets that angry.
23:29It has to be real.
23:30The stone vanished decades ago, and Anna brings it back.
23:33She's something else now.
23:35That was incredible.
23:38Thank you, Anna.
23:39The village, it's safer now.
23:42Anna, you've given more to this land than anyone.
23:45From now on, you're our savior.
23:49Anyone object?
23:51You brought back our guardian, Anna.
23:54Please step onto the altar.
23:56The people shall kneel to you.
23:57Not so fast!
23:59She's lying to you.
24:00All of you.
24:01What do you mean, she's lying?
24:04She didn't bring the stone.
24:06She didn't find it.
24:09None of it was her.
24:10Not her?
24:10And who?
24:12So we were all wrong about her?
24:15So you're claiming I had nothing to do with the stone?
24:18Exactly.
24:20You fooled them, but not me.
24:21You fooled them, but not me.
24:21You
