Short filmTranscript
00:01At three, I had no voice. House Malvern cast me as a magicless wretch along with my sick mother.
00:14Yet today, you call me back.
00:16Young master, we've arrived.
00:18A mute heir to a magic house. No wonder he was thrown away.
00:26As a thousand-year house of magic, we have no place for a magicless wretch who can't cast a single
00:33spell.
00:35Get out!
00:37Last year, illness took mother from me.
00:40You and my cowardly father just stood by.
00:43Now you use bloodline to falsely reel me in.
00:47You think I'm still that dumb kid?
00:49Queen Victoria's banquet is in two days.
00:51The Malverns need full attendance to escape punishment.
00:54That's why I'm really here.
00:57After a seven-year absence, could you show me the way to the main hall?
01:00I'm lost.
01:01What are you waving for, little mute cult?
01:03I don't get mute signs.
01:12Insolent fool.
01:14I've killed countless before.
01:16I'm sorry, young master, that the main hall is straight ahead.
01:20I see a mute wretch, but my soul is the dark sorcerer dreaded by all demons, Mar-Logos.
01:25...
01:30...
01:32...
01:33Ahhhh!
01:38Ahhhh!
01:41...
01:42...
01:45AWAY!
01:48EE właściR!
02:15The Abyssal Curse has found me.
02:18There is no escape.
02:28To regain my past prime.
02:31I started the Silence Curse at three.
02:34It left me mute, unable to cast ordinary spells.
02:37Aldrich, say, Grandpa.
02:41Congenital muteness.
02:45I planned to break Mother's dying wish and stay away.
02:49But since I'm here, I'll make you all kneel and repent at my mother's grave.
03:03Silent freak.
03:04What gives you the nerve to keep us waiting?
03:07Come here and apologize.
03:11How have you been all these years?
03:14Grandpa, why bother?
03:14He is mute.
03:15Are we keeping a maid here just to read his hands?
03:20The Queen's Banquet nears.
03:22If our coldness shames this house, none of us will escape the consequences.
03:27I...
03:29Father, please.
03:30Don't be mad.
03:31Child.
03:33I know the family failed you and your mother.
03:37But Grandpa would set things right now.
03:48You are a Malvin, and you shall never wander again.
03:53Grandpa, have you lost your senses?
03:55He's a wretch who can't even chant.
03:57Keeping him will shame us all.
03:59Enough!
04:00My decision is final.
04:01Aldric, thank your grandpa.
04:03Quickly!
04:11You threw me away like refuse.
04:13Now you call this mercy?
04:16What does he mean?
04:17He says you threw him away like refuse.
04:21Aldric, how could you say that?
04:23Refute.
04:23At least the wretch knows his place.
04:25I offered you a second chance for the sake of our bloodline.
04:28I saved you from wandering like a stray.
04:31House Malvern was never worthy of me.
04:34I returned to make you kneel at Mother's grave.
04:37What is all that?
04:40What is it?
04:42The young master said he's not settled in yet.
04:45That's all.
04:45Please, Master Aldric.
04:47I'm just trying to keep my job.
04:49Not so fast.
04:50There's something you must do first.
05:01The Queen's invitation is inside.
05:03It opens only with every family member's mark.
05:07So that's why you brought me back.
05:09Don't waste your breath, Grandpa.
05:11A mute cannot chant.
05:13No chant, no spell.
05:15He is useless.
05:18If he can't chant, I'll teach him signal casting.
05:21No chant needed.
05:22I will demonstrate only once.
05:25Watch carefully.
05:28Did you see that?
05:31Aldric, perhaps I can explain the magical flow itself.
05:34Good Lord.
05:35Even infants grasp signal casting faster than him.
05:43Good boy.
05:50That little bastard does not deserve the Queen's banquet.
05:55Once he leaves his seal,
05:58kill him.
06:07It worked!
06:24They really know ancient, forbidden magic.
06:30The Thornheart curse?
06:32Not even an archmaster would dare act under that curse.
06:35One struggle,
06:36and the body tears itself apart.
06:39Father,
06:41Aldric is only ten.
06:42That kind of attitude deserves punishment.
06:45He stays here to reflect on his actions.
06:51Once the silence curse is complete,
06:54every one of you
06:55shall beg for death.
06:58Huh?
06:58What's this?
07:01Oh, wow.
07:03So this is what your mother left you.
07:06Look at that!
07:07The mute's so desperate,
07:09he's nearly speaking.
07:12All right.
07:13Here you go.
07:21Dying for a useless little freak like you?
07:24Your mother was truly pathetic.
07:25A short time.
07:38Aldric, stop at once.
07:39Your body will be torn apart.
07:41Aldric,
07:42please don't!
07:43No!
07:45No!
07:54No!
07:56No!
08:02Prepare!
08:03To die!
08:06To die!
08:17He broke through the Thornheart curse.
08:20Aldric, was this your true power all along?
08:29High Mage Emery?
08:33The silence curse remains incomplete.
08:35Forcing this much power out is still too taxing.
08:42So that power came from a High Mage after all?
08:46Exactly! He's still nothing but a useless mutt freak!
08:55Lady Emery, House Malvern welcomes your arrival.
08:59So this is the mute failure you wished me to train?
09:03The Queen's invitation has been destroyed.
09:06I can take you to the banquet myself.
09:11Aldric, I shall overlook your actions this once. Go to your room and rest.
09:16Young Master, follow me.
09:23Sigh.
09:28Sigh.
09:33Sigh.
09:43Silence curse mutes me to forge my core.
09:47Two more days, I will get my power back.
10:06What kind of power is this?
10:20A supreme mage it is channeling nearby.
10:23If I continue, my mana will collapse.
10:28Master Merlin!
10:29Her Majesty suffered a mana backlash.
10:32She's coughing blood!
10:39What?
10:47A grand archermeist, still alive at this age.
10:55Heavens, I have seen such crushing power.
10:59Mana like this, from the forgotten Malvin estate.
11:04Whoever he is, he could swallow a city.
11:07How could a fallen Miner House deserve such a master?
11:11Before him I am nothing.
11:13I dare not seek him out.
11:17I'd give up the crown for a master like that.
11:24Just one more step to refining my core.
11:27Now my voice can reach their minds.
11:38So you're the mute reject.
11:40I'm Emery.
11:41Your grandfather hired me to teach you basic magic.
11:43Only Bloodline keeps him in this house.
11:46Who does he think he is?
12:04Seven Hardest Grimmatores.
12:05Pick one.
12:06Memorize it in a day.
12:07I'll only guide you three times.
12:09Children's primers.
12:10And she calls them difficult.
12:12I am well aware your mind is empty.
12:14And you have never known such high arts.
12:17But...
12:17Shh.
12:18Choose.
12:19Now.
12:26Magic most evil?
12:31What is this supposed to mean?
12:34Are you refusing to study any of them?
12:37All seven?
12:38Who do you think you are?
12:39A god of magic?
12:40These take decades to master.
12:42Not hours.
12:47Worthless wretch.
12:49Are you mocking me?
12:50I am a high mage of...
12:51Every spell in these seven books.
12:53I had mastered them.
12:55All by the age of three.
12:57Telepathy?
12:58Even an archmace would need decades.
13:00He is ten.
13:01How?
13:02Have you lost your voice as well?
13:04Fine.
13:05You have some talent.
13:06But mastering these at three?
13:08Absurd.
13:12Prove it.
13:14Use all that spellcraft you read in those ancient books.
13:18Jewel me.
13:22A stick?
13:24You mean to impress a high magus with that?
13:28Impossible!
13:39What is happening?
13:40Is the earth splitting apart?
13:49No earthquake.
13:51A mage is casting powerful spell.
13:53To the courtyard.
13:54Now!
13:55I'm right.
14:01Oh!
14:02I like this.
14:05Lost.
14:10Take a minute.
14:19Lost above.
14:21This power.
14:22It is incomprehensible.
14:26Do your worst.
14:28What the hell?
14:29Has the sky fallen?
14:32What?
14:33What?
14:33It's far beyond the Grinikors.
14:36But that's all.
14:37Isn't it?
14:38You little shit.
14:44No, no, no!
14:46No!
14:47No!
14:48No!
14:49No!
14:50No!
14:51No!
14:52No!
14:52No!
14:53No!
14:55No!
14:55No!
14:58No!
14:59No!
15:01No!
15:04No!
15:16Aldrich!
15:17Madam Emery, what happened?
15:19Say nothing.
15:20I am not ready for them to know.
15:22It was nothing more than a demonstration.
15:26Ah, it was Madam Emery.
15:27For a moment, I thought this magicless Rhett had caused all that noise.
15:32If that is all, we shall leave you to your lesson.
15:40All right, your magic's strong, but don't act like my ruin magic's inferior.
16:06Is that Madam Emery's true power?
16:09Is that Madam Emery's true power?
16:09Magnificent?
16:10Damn.
16:11Is that Madam Emery's true power?
16:13Magnificent?
16:14No, it was not from Emery's true power?
16:17No, it was not from Emery.
16:18No, it was not from Emery.
16:21I must see it myself.
16:28Does this mastery of the array satisfy you?
16:31A storm trick.
16:33A storm trick.
16:34Nothing more.
16:47Water!
16:48Water!
16:49Water!
16:49Water!
16:58Curse it!
16:58Is Madam Emery showing off again?
17:00All this for a mute boy.
17:01Meaningless.
17:06Enough!
17:07Aldric, stop!
17:07Your strength is far beyond my expectations.
17:10I beg you, stay your hand.
17:18Aldric, I apologize.
17:20I have no right to be your master, but I have one request.
17:24Please, accept me as your disciple.
17:26The curse upon my tongue is not yet broken.
17:29Not yet time.
17:30Maybe.
17:34Thank you, master.
17:36I shall not fail you.
17:40Master, the Queen Victoria's banquet tomorrow.
17:43You must be there.
17:45Alderac did not fail the Highmaster.
17:47Keeping him in was a fair decision.
17:50Aldric's talent is boundless.
17:52His power shall soon dazzle the whole of Theros.
17:57Dazzle.
17:57Will his name truly around after tomorrow's royal banquet?
18:06Cronimages.
18:07Such talent for a ten-year-old.
18:09Could it be he was never truly a mute?
18:13Record every mark.
18:14Lock it in the library's core vault.
18:16No one touch it.
18:17My lord, is it truly that valuable?
18:20More valuable than everything in our faults.
18:23Fail me, and you answer with your life.
18:26Understood, my lord.
18:38At last.
18:39The silence curse is shattered.
18:42Even at ten, no one could match me.
18:45Behold, Marlogos, the Dark Dread is here.
18:50Heheheh.
18:52Heheheh.
18:55Heheheh.
18:56Heheheh.
18:57Heheheh.
18:57Where is Aldric?
18:58The queen is waiting, grandpa!
19:00Why delay for a magicless wretch?
19:02Theros Elite will be there, father.
19:04Bringing that rude mute will make us a laughing stock.
19:06Heheheh.
19:07Heheheh.
19:07Aldric comes with us.
19:09That is final.
19:11The talent he has shown these past days, it is utterly terrifying.
19:16Aldric's talent is boundless. His power shall soon dazzle the whole of Theros.
19:22If he shines before the Queen, House Malon may rise again.
19:31All our present, set forth to the royal palace.
19:42The royal palace will see what House Malvern discarded.
19:48Caelan, all the great houses are here tonight. This is your chance to honor the Malverns. Seize it.
19:56I will, Father. I've waited years! Tonight, I will show them House Malvern has a true prodigy.
20:05Aldric, your cousin Caelan will surely impress the Queen tonight and receive her favor.
20:09Just stay humble and serve him. He'll go easy on you.
20:13I bow to no one and I follow no man.
20:16How can you be so stubborn? I am only trying to protect...
20:20You spoke.
20:22What are you doing?
20:24You'll know soon enough.
20:29Seriously, Emre? A ten-year-old Mastodat's even you cannot rival?
20:34A mute child who can't chant? Impossible.
20:37Presenting, the noble House of Malvern.
20:39If you doubt my eyes, come. Witness the miracle of this millennium for yourselves.
20:45Then let us see what this boy truly is.
20:49The petty Malverns? Why would three high magents greet a minor house?
20:55It must be for Caelan. They say he has some talent.
21:00Caelan? He's a mere pretender, not worthy of their gaze.
21:14Caelan, look. Three high mages. All of Theris must know your name.
21:19My son! You have brought glory to us! Missing only Her Majesty!
21:24They came for me.
21:34Master Merlin, what troubles you?
21:37Your Majesty, the mana is shifting. The Grand Archmist is near.
21:42Truly? Then we must hasten. I must see myself.
21:46You honor our name today, Masters, by coming to receive us in person.
21:50Just as I thought. They are all here for me.
21:58What is the meaning of this?
22:00They were not here for Caelan.
22:03Here he comes.
22:10Such an oppressive Herrera.
22:14We have awaited your arrival.
22:16Aldric, he is the exiled kin of House Malwin.
22:19Three high mages gathered to welcome a mute wretch. Pure madness.
22:24Your Majesty.
22:27Aldric! On your knees! Do not be insolent!
22:32We're doomed. This mute wretch is getting us all executed.
22:36Bringing him was a goddamn mistake. He has ruined us all.
22:54So you're Queen Victoria.
22:58So you're Queen Victoria.
22:59I thought he was a mute.
23:00He can talk.
23:01How is he speaking?
23:03He was never mute.
23:04This is impossible!
23:08Insolence! This is Her Majesty!
23:09On your knees!
23:16Stand down.
23:18Your Majesty! Please forgive Aldric's ear.
23:20Your Majesty! That outcast is not a member of House Malvern.
23:23Reject!
23:24Children often speak without thinking.
23:26It's fine.
23:27Rise.
23:27Your Majesty!
23:29I heard several high mages came for a ten-year-old boy.
23:32Naturally, I wanted to see him myself.
23:34Indeed, Your Majesty, I am here solely for Aldric.
23:36Oh.
23:37What makes this child so exceptional?
23:39Aldric knows more magic than most seasoned maces.
23:46He's a prodigy.
23:48A ten-year-old prodigy?
23:50Emery, you've finally gone crazy.
23:52He's only ten. He's not even an apprentice.
23:54Go run back to your mummy.
23:55Oh, that's right. His mummy's gone.
23:59You asked for this.
24:05Enough! Forget his age.
24:08He's the strongest mage alive.
24:13The strongest mage? Seriously?
24:23Gavin, is Emery telling the truth about your exceptionally powerful grandson?
24:27Your Majesty, I...
24:28Your Majesty, my cousin is all show.
24:31Emery must have fallen for some cheap trick.
24:33You know nothing!
24:34If you had a tenth of his power, Alan Mulrond would already be the greatest in Theros.
24:38A tenth?
24:39Has she gone completely mad?
24:41Absurd. How can a spell-less freak compare to my son?
24:44He's a real prodigy.
24:47Words are cheap, boy.
24:49If Emery thinks so highly of you,
24:51represent House Malvern in tomorrow's royal trial and prove yourself.
24:55House Malvern doesn't deserve me.
24:57No! I don't accept this!
24:59He's a useless mute!
25:00I'm the future of House Malvern!
25:02I've trained for years!
25:03How can he take my place?
25:05Silence, Kaelin!
25:06No!
25:07I was meant to be the one!
25:21A high mage has spoken!
25:24Your power isn't even a tenth of his!
25:26Grandpa...
25:27You will understand after tonight.
25:33Everyone, let us proceed to the banquet.
25:41Please, be seated.
25:43Your Majesty!
25:51I saw the mark you left in the courtyard.
25:54Child, your manner is unlike anything ordinary.
26:02House Malvern has wronged you and your mother.
26:05We need you, Aldric.
26:06House Malvern's been looked down on for years.
26:09Help us prove them wrong tomorrow.
26:11I'm not a Malvern.
26:12Why should I fight for strangers?
26:17Blood is law.
26:18You are Aldric Malvern.
26:20Your name is your legacy.
26:23From now on, there is no Aldric Malvern.
26:26Call me Mar-Logas.
26:32Sir, the registration scroll for tomorrow's trial.
26:35Please sign here.
26:49Grandpa is begging you.
26:51One condition.
26:52Name it.
26:53I shall grant whatever you say.
26:55After my mother and I were cast out, we suffered more than you could ever know.
26:59I survived, yet my mother was swallowed by disease and died.
27:03I'm not here to rejoin this family.
27:06I'm here to get justice for my mother.
27:08If I win tomorrow, you'll all kneel at my mother's grave and admit you were wrong about us.
27:16You bastard!
27:18How dare you say that!
