00:05:05Your majesty
00:05:07Your majesty
00:05:08Hera
00:05:15Hera do you know your crime
00:05:21Your majesty
00:05:23What guilt do I have
00:05:27You failed in war and you still dare question me
00:05:31One border war dragged on for three whole years
00:05:34You had the power of the gods yet countless Cade-Aid soldiers still died
00:05:38Our people worked themselves to the bone supplying your war food and weapons
00:05:42You nearly bled this kingdom dry and you still claim you're innocent
00:05:46Your majesty
00:05:47That was a million beast horde
00:05:48Even a godsworn has limits
00:05:50He's right
00:05:51Without Hera holding the border Cade would have fallen already
00:05:54Nonsense
00:05:55She's the godsworn
00:05:56Someone with her power should have ended the war long ago
00:05:59The only reason it dragged on is because she wanted it to
00:06:02She used the enemy to weaken the kingdom and weaken the king's authority
00:06:06What exactly were you plotting?
00:06:08Everything I did was for Cade
00:06:09For the soldiers, for the people
00:06:11I nearly gave my life for this victory
00:06:14Enough, shut your mouth
00:06:15As of today, you are stripped of your position as regent
00:06:18Irene will take your place
00:06:19She understands strategy and politics far better than you to guide the kingdom
00:06:23Irene has never led an army
00:06:25She knows nothing about war or governance
00:06:27Handing her this kingdom is digging Cade's brain with your own hands
00:06:30How dare you?
00:06:31You dare defy the king?
00:06:34Neil!
00:06:38Your majesty, please reconsider her
00:06:40Hera shled blood for this kingdom
00:06:42You can't treat her like this
00:06:44Treasonous fool
00:06:45You dare oppose the king's command?
00:06:47Guards, drag him out and execute him immediately
00:06:50I promised King Taylor I would give Moses 100 chances
00:06:54Now there are only two left
00:06:56When they're gone, so am I
00:07:02As you command
00:07:04Hera
00:07:06I made this for you myself
00:07:07It carries my heart with it
00:07:09In this life, I'll only ever love you
00:07:12As long as I can stay by your side, I'd give up everything
00:07:16I'll follow you, protect you, love you forever
00:07:18Without you, this crown means nothing to me
00:07:22You're my only light, my only love
00:07:24Let me place this on you
00:07:27Yes, my king
00:07:29I'd give everything for you too
00:07:32This world only worships winners
00:07:34Nobody pities foolish heroes who throw their lives away
00:07:39You gambled everything on the battlefield
00:07:42But the real war is fought on the throne
00:07:44And you already lost
00:07:46I burned through my divine power to protect this kingdom
00:07:49My wounds reopen every night
00:07:52I cough blood in silence
00:07:54Yet he never noticed
00:07:56Never cared
00:07:58That coldness hurts more than any blade ever could
00:08:07Commander
00:08:08We fought through hell to save this kingdom
00:08:11And this is how they repay you
00:08:13Those snakes stole your power
00:08:18Power is just dust
00:08:21It never mattered to me
00:08:22Commander
00:08:23The king's betrayed everyone
00:08:25You gave everything to Cade
00:08:27And this is what you got in return?
00:08:28To hell with that king
00:08:29Commander, let's rebel
00:08:31Lead us back into the palace and take back what's yours
00:08:36Enough
00:08:38Commander
00:08:39We don't care about power or glory
00:08:41We just want to protect Cade
00:08:43To protect the people under under God's blessing
00:08:46Commander
00:08:47The king's blind
00:08:48And the court's full of vipers
00:08:50A kingdom like this has already been abandoned by the gods
00:08:53That's enough
00:08:54Get up
00:08:55The late king raised me from nothing
00:08:57And entrusted this kingdom to me
00:09:00Before he died
00:09:01He placed Cade and Moses in my hands
00:09:04I swore on the gods that I would never betray this kingdom
00:09:07Never rebel
00:09:08Commander
00:09:09But the king
00:09:10Enough
00:09:11Never speak of this again
00:09:15Commander
00:09:15Commander
00:09:15The queen mother summons you
00:09:17Immediately
00:09:26Your grace
00:09:27Hera, the gods have seen every injustice done to you
00:09:30You gave your life for Cade
00:09:31Yet you end up here all because Moses is young and stupid
00:09:35I've already reprimanded him
00:09:36And he's praying for forgiveness
00:09:38Please don't worry about me, your majesty
00:09:40The king needed to establish authority after taking the throne
00:09:44Everything I did was my duty
00:09:46I hold no resentment
00:09:48Moses is grown now
00:09:49And the kingdom is stable
00:09:52It's time to honor the engagement the late king arranged
00:09:55Marriage should be the king's decision
00:09:58I wouldn't dare decide for him
00:09:59The late king swore this oath before the gods
00:10:02It cannot be changed
00:10:04If that is the will of the queen mother and the late king
00:10:07Then I will obey
00:10:08Hera, you are the pillar of Cade
00:10:09This kingdom owes you
00:10:11Only with you beside Moses can Cade remain under the gods protection
00:10:17Commander
00:10:18If this marriage makes you unhappy
00:10:20I can speak to my brother
00:10:21You don't have to force yourself
00:10:22I've known the king almost my whole life
00:10:25And this marriage was the late king's final wish
00:10:40Commander
00:10:42If you're angry, take it out on me
00:10:45Even if I need to die, I will blame you
00:10:52Hera!
00:10:53You dared to hit Irene!
00:10:55I swear by the gods
00:10:57I never touched her, I would never hurt her
00:10:59I saw it with my own eyes
00:11:01And you still dare lie before the gods?
00:11:04Please calm down your majesty
00:11:06Don't blame the commander
00:11:08It's my fault for offended her
00:11:10I deserve punishment
00:11:11If my suffering eases her anger
00:11:13Then I'll gladly accept it
00:11:16Hera, I order you to apologize to Irene right now
00:11:20I did nothing wrong
00:11:22Why should I apologize?
00:11:23Dare you disobey me?
00:11:25Guards, drag her away and punish her
00:11:31Traitor
00:11:44Hera, that was incredible
00:11:46Teach me
00:11:47Come here, I'll show you
00:11:50Calm your mind
00:11:51Keep your arms steady
00:11:53Let your eyes follow the arrow
00:11:55That's the path the gods guide you towards
00:12:01Hera, you're the one the gods sent to guide me
00:12:03When the war ends, I'll marry you before the entire kingdom
00:12:07I'll stay by your side forever
00:12:09And make you the happiest woman in Cade
00:12:17Brother stop
00:12:18She's the pillar of this kingdom
00:12:20You can't treat her like this
00:12:23Cain
00:12:24You dare defy me too?
00:12:26You want punishment as well?
00:12:28Hera spent her whole life fighting for Cade
00:12:30She drove back the orcs and protected this kingdom
00:12:32She's blessed by the gods
00:12:33How can you treat her this way?
00:12:35And I saw everything clearly
00:12:36It was Reen
00:12:37She hit herself to frame the commander
00:12:41You've been blinded by the devil
00:12:42Guards!
00:12:43Escort Prince Cain back to his chambers
00:12:45He is confined till further notice
00:12:52Hera, you've shown complete disrespect to the crown, the royal family and even the gods
00:12:57Your crimes deserve death
00:12:59From this day forward, all your titles are stripped
00:13:01Your command over the armies is revoked
00:13:04And the sacred crim given to you by the late king will be taken back immediately
00:13:15As you command
00:13:17One hundred chances
00:13:19And now, the very last one is gone too
00:13:28Gods, take your reign to be treated
00:13:33Moses
00:13:35That crest was bestowed by the late king in the gods name
00:13:40It represents honor and faith
00:13:42Taking it back is an insult to the gods themselves
00:13:46Don't worry mother
00:13:47I know exactly what I'm doing
00:13:48Your wedding is near
00:13:50Yet you humiliated her before everyone
00:13:53You stripped her power and took her crest
00:13:55How will you face her afterward?
00:13:57Right now, the people of Cade only know Hera
00:14:01Not me
00:14:03If I don't crush her influence before the wedding
00:14:05This kingdom will belong to her instead of me
00:14:09Then make them know you
00:14:13It's fine mother
00:14:15She's like the rose with thorns
00:14:17Only pulling every thorn out makes her truly submit
00:14:20Only then can she become my loyal wife
00:14:23Aren't you afraid driving Hera away will bring divine punishment?
00:14:27Don't worry
00:14:27She's obeyed me for years
00:14:29The gods bound us together
00:14:30And besides
00:14:32I don't want a legendary commander feared across the world
00:14:35I just want a woman who belongs only to me
00:14:37You always were a stubborn boy
00:14:38Besides, after her last campaign, her body's already broken
00:14:41Taking away her command is for her own good
00:14:43She needs rest
00:14:43You're grown now
00:14:46Just remember control your decisions anymore
00:14:49Don't destroy what you and Hera once had
00:14:51That bond was blessed by the gods
00:15:01Your Majesty, Hera requests an audience
00:15:05Let her in
00:15:13The gods have blessed you, your majesty
00:15:16Your dedication for ruling lately reminds me of the late king
00:15:20I'm glad to see it
00:15:22Hera, you've spent years fighting for this kingdom
00:15:26Your wounds are severe
00:15:27Now that you've stepped down as commander
00:15:29Just focus on healing and prepare for our wedding
00:15:32Before I leave the palace
00:15:34This is the final document I need your approval on
00:15:41Wonderful news, your majesty
00:15:42The orc empire has sent envoys
00:15:44They want peace talks
00:15:47Guards, quickly get Irene treated
00:15:49Approved
00:15:50You may leave now
00:15:51Hera, I know you've suffered lately
00:15:53We'll talk everything through after the wedding, okay?
00:15:59Your majesty
00:16:02There's no after this anymore
00:16:05There's no after this anymore
00:16:21Hera, are you hurt?
00:16:24I'm fine
00:16:26It's nothing
00:16:28No, that's not nothing
00:16:29To me
00:16:31You matter more than the throne
00:16:32More than this kingdom
00:16:33More than anything in this world
00:16:39From this day on
00:16:41We are neither ruler and subject
00:16:44Nor husband and wife
00:16:50Hera
00:16:52Come home safe
00:16:53I'll marry you with the grandest ceremony in the kingdom
00:16:58Hera
00:17:00Do you plead guilty to your sin?
00:17:05Moses
00:17:06Hera is no ordinary woman
00:17:08The gods chose her
00:17:09I swear on all the gods
00:17:11I'll trust her and listen to her
00:17:13I'll become the king this kingdom needs
00:17:22This world is vast enough that we'll never see each other again
00:17:32May the gods bless them
00:17:34May the gods bless them
00:17:35The king is finally marrying commander Hera
00:17:38What a glorious moment for Cade
00:17:40I heard she lost her title, her army, even her sacred Christ
00:17:44Why would they suddenly marry now?
00:17:47You don't understand?
00:17:48The king just wants her to put down her sword and live peacefully beside him
00:17:51It's out of love
00:17:52I see
00:17:53Then we misunderstood his majesty
00:18:03Your majesty
00:18:05We've arrived at Hera's estate
00:18:07What nerve?
00:18:09The king himself arrives
00:18:11Dare you not come greet him?
00:18:13This is an insult to the crown
00:18:15Don't blame her
00:18:16She's been hurt lately
00:18:17I'll speak to her myself
00:18:21What's wrong?
00:18:22What's wrong?
00:18:23Where's Hera?
00:18:24Well
00:18:26Go find her now!
00:18:37Stop!
00:18:45Your majesty
00:18:47Tell me where Hera is
00:18:48Answer honestly
00:18:49Your majesty
00:18:52Lady Hera left the capital the day she surrendered the sacred crest
00:18:56I have no idea where she went either
00:19:01What?
00:19:02No
00:19:03That's impossible
00:19:04You're lying
00:19:05Hera swore to my father she'd tech me protect Cade
00:19:07She swore before the gods
00:19:08She would never leave me
00:19:09Your majesty
00:19:10I swear by the gods
00:19:11But dare perceive you
00:19:12Insolence
00:19:13How dare you speak such nonsense before his majesty?
00:19:16Hera
00:19:17Now that you're gone
00:19:19Your kingdom and your man
00:19:20Are all mine
00:19:22Your majesty
00:19:23I swear by the gods
00:19:24Lady Hera truly left the capital
00:19:26Before she left
00:19:28She ordered me to throw away all the old belongings in the estate
00:19:31Hera
00:19:32These night bracelets were offered by the lord of the eastern territories
00:19:35I saved them especially for you
00:19:37Wear them
00:19:37Like I'm always by your side
00:19:39Protecting me
00:19:41I love them
00:19:41I'll treasure them forever
00:19:43Old belongings
00:19:45Could she mean
00:19:46All the things I gave her?
00:19:49Where are they?
00:19:51Over there
00:19:52Half of them have already burned
00:19:59No
00:20:00Those were my gifts to her
00:20:11Hera
00:20:12Hera look
00:20:12This is our vow parchment
00:20:14It says
00:20:14I'll love Hera forever
00:20:16And we'll never be apart
00:20:17Yes
00:20:18We'll be together forever
00:20:20Never apart
00:20:26When you're away at war
00:20:27If you miss me look at this painting
00:20:31Whenever I miss you
00:20:33I'll keep looking at it
00:20:36Guards
00:20:37This man destroyed royal property
00:20:38Execute him immediately
00:20:40Guards
00:20:41This man destroyed royal property
00:20:43Execute him immediately
00:20:44Mercy your majesty
00:20:46I swear by the gods
00:20:47I didn't know those belonged to the royal family
00:20:50Please spare me
00:20:51You can't do this
00:20:52He didn't know
00:20:53Your majesty
00:20:54You can't kill him
00:20:55What?
00:20:56You're defending him now?
00:20:57Lady Hera just left
00:20:58And you already want to execute her old servant
00:21:00If she hears about this
00:21:02What will she think of you?
00:21:03Right
00:21:04She just left
00:21:04She can't have gone far yet
00:21:06I can still bring Hera back
00:21:08Hera no longer holds any office
00:21:10You have no right to force her back
00:21:14She may not hold office anymore
00:21:16But she is still my rightful fiance
00:21:19I have every right to bring her back
00:21:21Hera abandoned the royal wedding
00:21:23And disgraced the crown
00:21:24Before the entire kingdom
00:21:25That's treason against the royal family
00:21:27And betrayal of the gods
00:21:29A crime worthy of death
00:21:31Exactly!
00:21:32Hera deserves to die for this!
00:21:36Brother
00:21:37Have you ever stopped to think
00:21:38Why Hera left without a word?
00:21:40Have you reflected on anything you've done?
00:21:44Cain!
00:21:45Are you saying all of this is my fault?
00:21:47I would never dare
00:21:48Enough!
00:21:49Get out!
00:21:50I don't want to see you right now!
00:21:55And you
00:21:57Do you think this is my fault too?
00:21:59Of course not
00:22:00This is all Hera's doing
00:22:02She's manipulated everyone around her
00:22:04She bewitched Cain with that pretty face of hers
00:22:08That's why he keeps defending her
00:22:10I knew it!
00:22:12Cain must have feelings for Hera
00:22:15But now
00:22:16How do I fix this mess?
00:22:18I thought marrying her would stabilize the kingdom
00:22:21But she escaped
00:22:23Turning me into a joke of the whole kingdom
00:22:25I have a solution
00:22:27Your Majesty
00:22:28Say it!
00:22:30The only way to calm the royal court and the people
00:22:33Is to find someone to impersonate Hera
00:22:36Until this crisis passes
00:22:38Your height and figure are close enough to Hera's
00:22:40You'll do
00:22:44Your Majesty
00:22:46I'm afraid I may not be worthy enough for such a role
00:22:48That was not a request
00:22:50It's an order
00:22:51Do you dare refuse me?
00:22:55I, as you command
00:23:01Hera, the kingdom you built and the man you loved
00:23:06From now on, they'll all belong to me
00:23:08Hera, I am the king of Cade
00:23:10The ruler of this world
00:23:12No one's allowed to defy me
00:23:24Hera, is that you?
00:23:25You finally came back to me
00:23:28My Hera
00:23:30I knew you were hurt before
00:23:33But why wouldn't you just listen to me?
00:23:36I wanted to tell you everything
00:23:38On our wedding night
00:23:43Hera, I fell in love with you the very first moment I saw you
00:23:47But I'm a king, I wasn't just myself
00:23:50Couldn't you have understood me just a little more?
00:23:52But don't worry
00:23:54I'll make it up to you from now on
00:23:57Irene even taught me
00:23:59How to please a woman
00:24:00I'll make you happy
00:24:02I'll make all your pain disappear
00:24:06Why is it you?
00:24:08Irene, where's my Hera?
00:24:13Your Majesty, we located Hera
00:24:16She's currently in the Essos Ridge region
00:24:18Great, I'm leaving immediately
00:24:20I'll bring Hera back myself
00:24:22Hera, you bitch
00:24:24I'll send the Shadow Eclipse assassins to kill you in Essos Ridge
00:24:27Before Moses ever reaches you
00:24:29Never steal Moses from me again
00:24:38Your mind's somewhere else tonight
00:24:41After everything you did for Cade
00:24:43After all your victories
00:24:44This is how the king repaid you
00:24:46How can the world be this unfair?
00:24:48I spent my whole life fighting wars for the kingdom
00:24:51Now that I finally have peace, you should be happy for me
00:24:55Maybe so
00:24:57But it's still so unfair
00:25:00It's heartbreaking
00:25:05Look out!
00:25:11Such strong magic
00:25:13They aren't ordinary assassins
00:25:19Hera
00:25:20Hera
00:25:21Time to die
00:25:28Don't touch her
00:25:39Gareth!
00:25:40Gareth!
00:25:52Gareth!
00:25:58Your power is impressive
00:26:00But your old wounds never healed
00:26:02You're finished
00:26:04Tonight
00:26:06I'm taking your life
00:26:08Who sent you?
00:26:10Who else in Cade has this kind of power besides the king himself?
00:26:15Don't touch her!
00:26:20Cain
00:26:21Stay with me
00:26:22You can't die
00:26:40So it's true, Hera
00:26:41I knew there was something between you and Cain
00:26:44I came all this way to bring you back
00:26:46And this is what I find
00:26:48Sneaking around with my own brother?
00:26:50Why be so silly?
00:26:52You're a prince
00:26:53Why would you throw yourself in front of that blade for me?
00:26:56It's not worth
00:26:57Lady Hera
00:26:58You gave everything for Cade
00:27:00For its people
00:27:01It's my honor to save you
00:27:03I dreamed of marrying you
00:27:05Of ruling this kingdom together
00:27:07And all this time you were with my brother?
00:27:09Don't think I can't see the truth
00:27:12You ran from the wedding because you wanted to elope with Cain
00:27:18Brother, you've got it wrong
00:27:20I only followed because I was worried Hera might be in danger
00:27:23We weren't running away together
00:27:26You expect me to believe that?
00:27:27If your majesty has already decided what to believe
00:27:31Then there's nothing left to explain
00:27:33Since you have nothing to say
00:27:36Guards! Execute Hera, now!
00:27:44That's a royal command!
00:27:46Are you all defying your king now?
00:27:48Your, your majesty
00:27:49Hera fought and bled for this kingdom
00:27:51Earned countless honors
00:27:53You, you cannot execute her
00:27:55If none of you have the guts
00:27:56I'll do
00:27:57Your majesty
00:28:00Hera sacrificed everything for this kingdom
00:28:02How, how can you be so cruel to her?
00:28:05Everything I've done in this life
00:28:07I can answer for before myself and before this land
00:28:10Answer for yourself?
00:28:12Then what about our engagement?
00:28:13You abandoned me on our wedding day
00:28:15And humiliated the royal family before the entire kingdom
00:28:17Did you ever think about me?
00:28:19Do you remember the document I handed you the last time I came to see you?
00:28:22You approved it yourself
00:28:24The document?
00:28:27The document?
00:28:32Your majesty, I need your approval
00:28:34The orc empire has sent envoys
00:28:37They want peace talks
00:28:40Approved
00:28:40You may leave now
00:28:42Someone!
00:28:43Bring me that document!
00:28:45Now!
00:28:51No, no, it's not true
00:28:54This has to be fake
00:28:57Read carefully
00:28:58It's real
00:29:01How, how did this happen?
00:29:03Why didn't I know about this?
00:29:04Who kept this from me?
00:29:05Who?
00:29:06It was you!
00:29:07Take him out and execute him
00:29:09Now!
00:29:09Your majesty, please!
00:29:10I swear I hid nothing
00:29:12You approved it without even a glance
00:29:13Hera
00:29:15I swear to the gods
00:29:16I didn't know it was a cancellation document
00:29:18Please believe me
00:29:20It's already done
00:29:21Our engagement was over
00:29:23There's nothing left between us now
00:29:24You promised my father!
00:29:26You promised to protect Cated
00:29:28To protect my throne!
00:29:29I did
00:29:31And I fulfilled the promise
00:29:33Then that means you can still
00:29:34I once swore before the gods that I would give you one hundred chances
00:29:38You've used every last one
00:29:39One hundred?
00:29:41How could they all be gone already?
00:29:43No!
00:29:44You're lying to me!
00:29:45That was a hundred chances!
00:29:47There's no way they're gone already!
00:29:48You are stripped of your position as regent
00:29:50Irene will take your place
00:29:52As you command
00:29:55Pity's foolish heroes who throw their lives away
00:30:02From this day on
00:30:04We are neither ruler and subject
00:30:07Nor husband and wife
00:30:14Now the hundred chances are truly gone
00:30:18It's time to leave
00:30:21Everything in Cato belongs to me
00:30:24Including you
00:30:25I'd kill you rather than let you leave me
00:30:32Fine
00:30:33If you truly want my life then take it
00:30:36Your majesty!
00:30:38You can't kill her!
00:30:41She'd rather be killed than come back to me
00:30:43Your majesty!
00:30:45You can't kill her!
00:30:50Your highness
00:30:52You don't have to do this
00:30:54Your majesty
00:30:55Lady Hera has done too much for Cade
00:30:58If you kill her like this
00:30:59The kingdom will fall into chaos
00:31:00She chose this herself
00:31:02I didn't mean to
00:31:04I beg you your majesty
00:31:06Spare her life
00:31:07Why do you care about her so much?
00:31:10This isn't personal
00:31:12But the people know right from wrong
00:31:14If you execute a national hero without cause
00:31:17Neither the nobles nor the people will accept it
00:31:19Good!
00:31:20Everyone says Hera has the people behind her
00:31:22Power everywhere
00:31:24Loyal followers everywhere she goes
00:31:26Yeah, that is terrifying
00:31:27Your majesty
00:31:28Please don't say that
00:31:29The late king changed my life
00:31:31He trusted me
00:31:32Believed in me
00:31:33I'll never forget that kindness
00:31:35So don't worry your majesty
00:31:36I will never rebel
00:31:38You won't
00:31:39But what about your men?
00:31:40Gavin, Eren, Thor
00:31:41Every one of them is a deadly commander
00:31:43Can you guarantee they won't turn against me?
00:31:54I'll let them lay down their titles and return home
00:31:56The royal family will face no threat from them
00:31:59You have my word
00:32:00I can let you leave
00:32:02But you must promise me
00:32:03Never serve another kingdom
00:32:05Marshal Hera is unbelievably talented
00:32:07What a waste to be chained down by them
00:32:09What's your tongue?
00:32:10Dare question royal affairs in front of me?
00:32:12Want to die?
00:32:14And that's not enough
00:32:15Swear before the gods that you will never serve anyone else for the rest of your life
00:32:19Or you'll be punished with God's harshest judgment
00:32:22I accept
00:32:23I, Hera, swear before the gods
00:32:25For the rest of my life I will fight me for Cade and remain loyal only to Cade
00:32:29I will never serve another kingdom or power
00:32:31If I break this oath
00:32:32May the gods deliver their harshest punishment upon me
00:32:35Hera
00:32:35You'd rather abandon all your talent and disappear into the wilderness than stay by my side?
00:32:41I already gave the first half of my life to Cade
00:32:43I fulfilled the late king's final wish
00:32:47Now it's time for me to leave
00:32:50I want to travel the world
00:32:51Live the rest of my life in peace and never involve myself in the kingdom again
00:32:55You good, Hera?
00:32:56So you really think Cade will fall apart without you?
00:32:59That I can't rule this kingdom without you?
00:33:00You seriously overestimate yourself
00:33:02I never thought that
00:33:04That's exactly what you think
00:33:05Lucky for Cade, there's never a shortage of warriors or brilliant minds
00:33:10With Irene leading the kingdom, Cade will thrive just fine
00:33:13Better than ever, actually
00:33:15I won't disappoint your majesty's trust
00:33:21Moses is still young
00:33:23I'm only trusting with him and the kingdom's future
00:33:27I'll give it everything I have
00:33:29The late king entrusted everything to me before he died
00:33:32No matter what, I have to do last thing for Cade
00:33:35Your majesty is wise
00:33:37Before I leave, there are three things I beg you to remember
00:33:40Interesting
00:33:41So even you have something to beg me for now
00:33:44First
00:33:45Cade has suffered through years of war
00:33:47The people are exhausted
00:33:49Lower the taxes and don't burden them any further
00:33:53I already know that
00:33:54Second
00:33:54The northern cities were only recently subdued
00:33:57Morrill and his men are fierce and proud
00:33:59While I was here, I could keep them loyal
00:34:01Please treat them with mercy and respect
00:34:03If you push them too hard, they will rebel
00:34:05Which will bring disaster to the kingdom
00:34:15Lord Moriak, unstoppable
00:34:17One man against 10,000
00:34:22Don't worry
00:34:23Irene is the truly gifted one in Cade
00:34:25She's far more capable than you ever were
00:34:27Third
00:34:29Never trust the orc empire
00:34:31Grommash and his court are brutal by nature
00:34:33Never lower your guard around them
00:34:37Finished, that's all
00:34:38Nothing new to rule the kingdom
00:34:40Don't underestimate these three rules
00:34:43If you can truly follow them
00:34:45Cade will be in peace for a hundred years
00:34:48Hera, stop pretending to be so loyal
00:34:50You disgust me
00:34:51Every word I said came from my heart
00:34:54Listen carefully!
00:34:55This kingdom won't stop without you!
00:34:56No, Cade will even become stronger than before!
00:34:58That's good!
00:34:59May Cade Kingdom prosper and may my king be safe and well
00:35:03Then we shall see
00:35:06Guards!
00:35:07Escort Cain away and treat his injuries immediately!
00:35:10Yes, your majesty
00:35:12No, Cade will be in peace
00:35:35Why are you here?
00:35:36The moment you left, all three of us were stripped of military command.
00:35:41We refused to continue serving that damned king.
00:35:45We suffered endless humiliation in the royal court.
00:35:48We would rather follow you, even if it means doing the roughest labor.
00:35:52Lady Hera, please don't leave.
00:35:54Cade cannot survive without you.
00:35:56You gave everything for Cade.
00:35:58We can't let you leave like this.
00:36:00Everything is settled.
00:36:01I have nothing left to stay for.
00:36:03I only wish to lay down my burdens and live a few peaceful years.
00:36:07During your years in power, you did so much for us.
00:36:11Now traitorous dimensions drive away a loyal hero.
00:36:14We refuse to accept it.
00:36:17The royal court has wronged its greatest protector.
00:36:21That's right!
00:36:22All gatherings must come to an end someday.
00:36:25Everyone, please go home.
00:36:27Don't make things harder for Hera.
00:36:34May your road ahead be safe, my lady.
00:36:37May the rest of your life be peaceful and stable.
00:36:52You saw it with your own eyes.
00:36:54The people of this land recognize only Hera in their hearts, not the royal family.
00:36:58I will accomplish great deeds for the world to see.
00:37:01I'll make Hera understand who truly deserves to rule Cade.
00:37:04Your Majesty, I have a brilliant plan that will secure your throne quickly and elevate your
00:37:09prestige far above Hera's.
00:37:11Speak!
00:37:12What plan?
00:37:13Though Hera is gone, her influence within the court still remains.
00:37:17Your Majesty should dismiss every official connected to her and replace them all with
00:37:22people loyal only to you.
00:37:23And you must win over the nobles and ministers by increasing their salaries and privileges.
00:37:27Only when those in power benefit from your rule will they truly devote themselves to you.
00:37:32Only then will Cade truly belong to you.
00:37:35But the royal treasury has long been emptied.
00:37:39We simply don't have the money for increased rewards.
00:37:43Then raise the taxes.
00:37:45But before Hera left, she repeatedly warned me never to raise taxes.
00:37:49Keep the people to live peacefully.
00:37:51You are mistaken.
00:37:52To secure royal authority, you must first secure the loyalty of those who hold power around you.
00:37:57Only when officials profit from your rule will they truly obey you.
00:38:00Hera wasn't protecting the people by opposing higher taxes.
00:38:04She was deliberately holding you back so you could never truly secure your throne.
00:38:08You mustn't fall for her tricks.
00:38:11What a scheming woman.
00:38:13Even after leaving, she's still plotting against me.
00:38:17As you said, deliver my order at once.
00:38:21Raise the taxes.
00:38:24Your Majesty, as Minister of Agriculture, I present three treasures.
00:38:29Superior wheat seeds, fertile soil fertilizer, and gilded farming sepples.
00:38:34May Cade enjoy endless harvests, overflowing granaries, and freedom from famine forever.
00:38:39Excellent. Truly excellent.
00:38:41Cade is fortunate to have such a devoted official as you.
00:38:44I oversee the kingdom's military affairs and offer the Blacksteel Command Seal,
00:38:49the Lionheart Battle Armor, and the Hundred War Bone.
00:38:53May Cade Cavalry become invincible and all neighboring lands submit before us.
00:38:57Well done.
00:38:58That's Irene's brother.
00:39:00You've forged Cade Army into such a powerful force.
00:39:03With you there, our borders will remain secure forever.
00:39:06I present the Star Crystal Steptor, the Deep Sea Pearl Crown, and the Holy Light Blessing Scroll.
00:39:13May your Majesty's glory shake the world, win the sincere loyalty of all people,
00:39:19and secure your supreme royal authority forever.
00:39:23Long live King Moses.
00:39:25May Cade resign forever.
00:39:28Ever since Irene began assisting me in governing the kingdom,
00:39:32Cade has grown stronger every time.
00:39:34The people live peacefully, and the court stands united.
00:39:39This is true prosperity.
00:39:48The entire kingdom celebrates today, and every minister offers congratulations.
00:39:54Why are you sitting there, in silence, without the slightest smile?
00:40:02Congratulations, Your Majesty.
00:40:05Are you still unwilling to accept it, thinking that without Hera,
00:40:09Cade could never maintain its essence glory?
00:40:11I didn't think so. Let's stop talking this.
00:40:14Even if Hera possessed some ability,
00:40:16how could she possibly compare to Irene's wisdom and strategy?
00:40:20Your Majesty! Enough!
00:40:23You still side with her in your heart!
00:40:25I would truly like to see Hera's expression when she realizes Cade remains prosperous even without her.
00:40:31Prosperous?
00:40:32The taxes are crushing the people until they can barely breathe.
00:40:35Citizens are displaced, suffering miserably everywhere.
00:40:37And you call this prosperous?
00:40:46The taxes are due!
00:40:47How dare you delay payment?
00:40:49If you still refuse spare money to pay, I'll whip you to death!
00:40:53Sir, this year's harvest completely failed.
00:40:56The taxes are far too heavy, we truly can't afford to pay.
00:40:59You have no choice!
00:41:00This is the King's command!
00:41:02Anyone who resists taxation will be executed on the spot!
00:41:06How dare you speak such nonsense here!
00:41:10Cade is peaceful and prosperous today entirely because of His Majesty.
00:41:14Raising taxes slightly is what made this grand banquet and this stability possible.
00:41:19What is wrong with that?
00:41:20Before Hera left, she repeatedly warned that taxes must never be raised.
00:41:25The people needed time to recover.
00:41:28You promised her that.
00:41:30Shut up!
00:41:31Hera has no right to lecture me on how to govern my kingdom!
00:41:34If you refuse to listen to honest counsel and remain this stubborn, then I have nothing
00:41:39left to say.
00:41:40Insolence!
00:41:41Since you despise everything here so much, then get out!
00:41:45Go to the Far North and never back again!
00:41:47Your Majesty, please don't!
00:41:50The Far North borders the Orc territories.
00:41:52If Prince Cain goes there, he will certainly die!
00:41:56How is that possible?
00:41:58Aren't Blackstone City and Frostwave City still standing between them?
00:42:01Those two cities have already...
00:42:04Already what?
00:42:06Speak!
00:42:07They have already been ceded by Lady Irene to the Orc Empire of the Gromish Royal Court.
00:42:12Your Majesty, those two cities were nothing but barren wastelands.
00:42:15I made the decision to precede them in exchange for peace along the borders.
00:42:18They're only two worthless cities.
00:42:20Then that's it.
00:42:21Not a great deal.
00:42:30This little beauty looks good!
00:42:33Take her with us!
00:42:36Let me go!
00:42:37Let me go!
00:42:41You beast!
00:42:43Let go of my daughter!
00:42:49With the King being this foolish, Cade will fall.
00:42:54Apologize to me now, and I'll let you stay in the Royal City.
00:42:57Spare you from suffering in the Far North.
00:43:00There's no need.
00:43:01I'll leave at once.
00:43:02You would rather die than remain by my side?
00:43:05Yes.
00:43:06There is no hope left here.
00:43:08My heart has long since died.
00:43:11I'm leaving now.
00:43:15Report!
00:43:16A devastating locust playing has erupted in Gale Wind City.
00:43:18The crops have all been devoured, and countless civilians are starving to death.
00:43:22I'm leaving now.
00:43:32I'll let you go!
00:43:32I'm leaving now!
00:43:36Your Majesty!
00:43:37Silvermean City's been hit by the worst flood in a hundred years.
00:43:40The dam collapsed.
00:43:42The farmlands are gone.
00:43:58Colin, didn't you swear the kingdom was thriving?
00:44:01With good harvests, peaceful people, no disasters?
00:44:05Now we've got locusts and floods and you hid it from me?
00:44:08How dare you?
00:44:10Your Majesty! I swear I'm innocent!
00:44:13I just got word myself there was no time to report it sooner!
00:44:17Lies! You still dare make excuses! Guards, execute him now!
00:44:22Ah! Ah! Ah!
00:44:26This could be rumours spread by rebels.
00:44:28I'll send people to verify it immediately and get you the truth.
00:44:32Your Majesty, the reports are true.
00:44:35My spies across the kingdom just confirmed everything.
00:44:37Fine. If the disasters are real, then it's simple.
00:44:40Open the treasury. Send food and gold.
00:44:42The people will settle down soon enough.
00:44:46Your Majesty!
00:44:48The treasury! It's empty!
00:44:50We plan to raise taxes again after the birthday, Fankway, just to keep the palace running, but now...
00:44:55No! That's impossible!
00:44:58We just collected taxes not long ago!
00:45:00How could the treasury be empty?
00:45:01The money's already gone, Your Majesty. The ceremonies, the banquets, palace renovations, rewards for your favourites. Nothing left.
00:45:09First, Cade has suffered through years of war. The people are exhausted. Lower the taxes and don't burden them any
00:45:17further.
00:45:18I already know that.
00:45:20Was I really wrong?
00:45:22No. I'm the king. Kings don't make mistakes.
00:45:28Irene! Think of something! We have to keep this under control no matter what!
00:45:33There's only one way left. Raise taxes again. Let the people suffer a little longer. And we survive this crisis.
00:45:41Yes.
00:45:56Hera. If Hera were here, none of this would have happened.
00:46:03It's been six months. Why won't you come back? Why can't you forgive me?
00:46:11You need to learn this properly. This is what keeps the kingdom standing.
00:46:15But you're already amazing at running the kingdom. We promised we'd be together forever.
00:46:20And I listen to everything you say anyway. Isn't that enough?
00:46:27It's all my fault. I should have listened to you. Didn't we promise we'd never leave each other?
00:46:32Then why aren't you here? Why? Cade's falling apart now.
00:46:35Disasters everywhere. People are suffering. Hera, are you really gonna stand there and watch me fail?
00:46:42Hera. I miss you. Please come back. Please save Cade. Save me.
00:46:57The king keeps squeezing the people dry. Now we've got locusts and floods back to back. The people can't survive
00:47:04like this.
00:47:05The king doubted you, humiliated you, and tried to kill you back then. You can't seriously go back and save
00:47:11him.
00:47:11Exactly. That royal family destroyed you. Why keep sacrificing yourself for people who betrayed you?
00:47:16But... But... The people are suffering.
00:47:24Hera!
00:47:26Why... Why are you here?
00:47:33Your hands... What happened to them?
00:47:37It's usual to have these calluses. But you're a prince. Why aren't you in the capital?
00:47:45My brother...
00:47:46Banished me.
00:47:50So even the last person willing to tell him the truth got driven away too?
00:47:55I'm so happy to see you here again.
00:47:57I'm also the late king's son. And I've admired you for long. Can I...
00:48:03The northern beast threat still isn't over.
00:48:06The kingdom's in chaos.
00:48:07I'm not thinking about love right now.
00:48:09I see.
00:48:11But I'd ask you a very great favor.
00:48:13Right now Irene controls everything. Taxes are crushing the people.
00:48:16And she already handed over two northern fortresses to the Gromish Crown.
00:48:19The kingdom's falling apart. Hera, please. Come back and save Cade's people.
00:48:24If that's the case, then for the sake of the people, I'll go back one more time.
00:48:30That's great. Things are already at the breaking point. We need a plan immediately.
00:48:35The situation isn't hopeless yet. If we can provide food and money to calm the people,
00:48:41the crisis can still be contained. The only thing I'm worried about is...
00:48:45What's that?
00:48:46Morlock of the North. He's fierce and hot-tempered. He can't be threatened,
00:48:50or if he's pushed too far, he'll rebel for sure. And once that happens,
00:48:54Cade will be facing enemies inside and outside the kingdom. There will be no saving it then.
00:48:58Moses can't be that foolish. He already made one mistake raising taxes. Surely he won't make another.
00:49:03I hope not.
00:49:06Your Majesty! General Morlock of the North is outside requesting an immediate audience!
00:49:10Morlock? Before Hera left, she repeatedly warned me to treat him with respect.
00:49:14He's fierce and hot-tempered. If pushed him too hard, he'll rebel.
00:49:18Pass down my order. Prepare the best wine and food. Welcome General Morlock with the highest honors!
00:49:26Your Majesty, please don't! The treasury's already empty! Every coin matters right now!
00:49:32Morlock's nothing more than a surrendered general. He doesn't deserve the honors. Some ordinary food is more than enough.
00:49:39And he's obviously here to beg for tax relief for the people. But we can't lower taxes anymore.
00:49:46Leave this to me, Your Majesty. I'll put him in his place myself.
00:49:51But Hera warned me to treat him with respect. What you do could cause real trouble.
00:49:57You worry too much, Your Majesty. Men like him only understand strength. Leave everything to me. Nothing will go wrong.
00:50:11Your Majesty. I'm Morack.
00:50:15See, Your Majesty? Was I right?
00:50:18Looks like you were. This Morlock may look intimidating, but in the end he's just a defeated general with nowhere
00:50:23else to go.
00:50:25Fine. Get up and speak.
00:50:28Thank you, Your Majesty. You've traveled a long way here, must be exhausted.
00:50:33The journey means nothing. But today, in front of both you and the Grand Marshal, I need an answer.
00:50:39Huh? Go on.
00:50:41When Grand Marshal Hera united the Northern Tribes, she made a promise before every soldier and citizen that the North
00:50:47would be exempt from taxes for five years.
00:50:49And if disaster or war ever struck, the Royal Treasury would provide relief for the people immediately.
00:50:56But what happened?
00:50:59Not only have you sent us nothing, you broke the agreement yourselves.
00:51:03You buried the people under Endless and drove them straight into hell! Is this how the Royal keeps its word?!
00:51:10We swore loyalty to Cade because we believed in Hera's honor, but you've broken every promise she made!
00:51:17What explanation do you have for the Northern soldiers and citizens?!
00:51:22How dare you? Are you openly questioning the Royal Court now? Or are you trying to challenge the King's authority?
00:51:30I've never questioned the Royal. I only ask for justice for my people.
00:51:36Royal policy is decided by the Court, not by border warriors like you.
00:51:40Your only job is to control your territory, keep the border stable, and obey orders. And you can't even manage
00:51:48that. Yet you still dare bark at the King?!
00:51:51A surrendered brute like you, dares act arrogant in the Royal Hall?! Who the hell do you think you are?!
00:51:58Know your place, loser. The Royal family told you to guard the Northern Gate, so stay there and wag your
00:52:04tail. Don't come to the capital barking.
00:52:06You're nothing but a poor thing the Royal took in out of pity. We fed you, and you should have
00:52:12stayed
00:52:13grateful and obedient. Dare you disrespect your Majesty and me? You deserve nothing! And that precious Hera you
00:52:21worship so much? She's nothing but a discarded failure the King threw away, a stray dog driven out of the
00:52:27palace. And my defeated loser. And my defeated loser. You bitch! How dare you insult Hera! You filthy little
00:52:38snake! For saying that alone, you deserve to die!
00:52:47Morlach! Are you insane?! What the hell are you doing?! I... I'm the Grand Marshal of the Kingdom!
00:52:54You're the Grand Marshal. That's right! Lay one finger on me and you'll be guilty of treason!
00:53:01The Grand Marshal is a useless, poisonous rat like you. Then Cade truly is finished!
00:53:05Morlach! How dare you?! Let Eren go right now! Now! Hera once praised you a wise King carrying the
00:53:11people. But now that I've seen you with my own eyes, you're nothing but a blind fool surrounded
00:53:15by corrupt snakes! You insolent bastard! How dare you insult the King?! Go to hell!
00:53:25Nobody move! Whoever takes one more step, I slip her throat right here! No mercy!
00:53:31Back off! All of you! Back off! Don't come near me, please!
00:53:35Why things become this bad? When Hera was here, everything's going well.
00:53:39Everyone! Move back immediately! Get to the sides!
00:53:42Your Majesty! You cannot let him leave alive! Morlach is too dangerous! If he escapes the
00:53:49palace today, he must raise an army and rebel! I beg you to execute him now, and end this threat
00:53:55once and for all! Listen carefully! If anyone attacks me now, I'll drag
00:54:00Eyren straight to hell with me! Your Majesty! Save me! Don't listen to him! Lord Morlach! I'll give you
00:54:05money, land, power, anything you want! Just don't kill me!
00:54:08A coward like you actually sits in power? You're rotten to the bone!
00:54:12Your Majesty! Sacrificing Eyrene in exchange for killing Morlach would secure the kingdom for
00:54:18generations! For the sake of all Cade's people, you must not let him go!
00:54:22We beg your Majesty to abandon Eyrene! Kill the traitor Morlach and protect the kingdom!
00:54:34My Hera, you've been working on military matters all morning, must be starving by now.
00:54:38Come on, try the food I made for you. You made all this yourself? Sure! This camp
00:54:44barely has supplies. If I had proper ingredients, I could make you a real feast. This is already more
00:54:49than enough. Thank you, my dear Cain. My Lady! Urgent military report! Urgent situation!
00:55:00What happened? Our scouts confirmed that Moravac openly turned against King Moses and Eyrene in
00:55:07the Royal Council Hall. The confrontation nearly exploded into bloodshred. God! Morlach's temper
00:55:12is terrifying. The openly challenging the royal family could have completely caused a chaos.
00:55:17Morlach entered the capital with a handful of trusted men. If Moses had executed him on the
00:55:22spot to stop him returning the north, this rebellion could still have been prevented. But
00:55:26the King chose to save Eyrene instead. He ordered the guards to stand down and allowed Morak to leave
00:55:30for the north safely. No, that's bad! A lot of innocent people are going to die now!
00:55:41You ungrateful traitor! The King spared your life out of mercy because of your past service,
00:55:46and this is how you repay him. The second you return north, you gather an army and openly rebel
00:55:51against the crown. That's treason! So you're Eyrene's loser brother. Makes sense. As arrogant and useless as
00:55:57she is. Believe me, I could flatten this city in a second and cut off your head as my wine
00:56:01cup. Then open your
00:56:02damn eyes and look around. Our walls are unbreakable. Our food supplies are full and our soldiers are
00:56:07elite fighters. Even if all a hundred thousand of your men are here, you still won't touch these walls!
00:56:12Back when Hera guarded this kingdom, I might honor the court without crossing the line.
00:56:20Grand Marshal Hera! No need for formalities.
00:56:23I know you're loyal and honorable. Everything that happened before wasn't truly your choice.
00:56:28I will honor every single promise I made. To lower taxes, care for the soldiers, and bring peace to
00:56:34the north. I swear it. But look at the kingdom now! A righteous leader like Hera was framed,
00:56:40humiliated, and driven out by corrupt cowards like you! I didn't raise this army for power! I'm
00:56:46fighting for Hera's honor! For justice for the suffering people of the north! North soldiers! Charge!
00:56:53Break Stonehold City! Fight for Hera's name! For peace of north!
00:57:00All soldiers! Rain arrows! Drop the boulders! Crush these traitors into pieces!
00:57:16Fire! Fire! Fire! Fire! Fire! Fire!
00:57:22Karen! Get the catapult ready! Launch me onto the wall! Release it! Full power!
00:57:37Stop him! Stop the monster! Kill him no matter what it takes!
00:57:53Look carefully! Your commander Fulton is now my prisoner! Nobody here can save him!
00:58:01I know exactly who most of you are. You once fought beside Hera on the battlefield. Now she's
00:58:08been framed and driven out by corrupt cowards. You feel nothing? No anger? No shame? I did not raise
00:58:17this army to betray the kingdom, but to restore Hera's honor! To make people of the north live in peace
00:58:23again! Throw down your weapons and surrender! I swear on my life as a warrior, no harm will come to
00:58:30you!
00:58:31You tell the truth! You fight with honor and righteousness! We're born to protect our homeland,
00:58:36not to die for Irene! I surrender willingly! We surrender! From now on, we're willing to follow you
00:58:42and restore justice for Hera! Your Majesty, thank you for giving me a second chance. I swear on my life,
00:58:50I'll devote everything to you forever! Never betray you!
00:58:57You swore to me that Morak was nothing more than a broken, defeated general! You said he had no courage
00:59:04left! Your Majesty, please calm down and think carefully about this! It's weird! Morlock kept
00:59:10mentioning Hera over and over again! If you ask me, Hera must be the real mastermind behind all of this!
00:59:15No. Is it truly Hera's secretly plotting against me? Think about it, Your Majesty! She once controlled
00:59:22the entire kingdom's military power, stood above everyone! After being stripped of everything and
00:59:27exiled, how could she possibly accept that? That's why she manipulated Morlock into storming the palace!
00:59:32It seems like I was the target, but in reality, she's humiliating the royal and attacking your
00:59:37authority and shaking your throne step by step! Damn her! She can't defeat me openly,
00:59:43so now she hides and plays dirty, letting her followers create chaos, humiliating me, provoking
00:59:49the entire kingdom of Kaeda! Everyone knows Hera's good at winning people over! She tricks soldiers
00:59:54and silizans with fake kindness and pretty words! We absolutely cannot fall for her lies! Must crush
00:59:59her scheme before it's too late! But it's already too late! I let Morlock go to save you, giving him
01:00:05chance to rally all his forces and march south! How are we supposed to stop this war? Don't panic,
01:00:10Your Majesty! I've already prepared for this! My brother Fulton is guarding Stonehold City,
01:00:15the only path from the north to the capital! Its defenses are impenetrable and the supplies are
01:00:19abundant! As long as Stonehold stands, Morrick will never reach the capital city! And my brother's a
01:00:24battle-hard in general! Morlock may be strong, but he's just a brute! There's no way he can break
01:00:31through the defenses! You can rest easy, Your Majesty!
01:00:37Your Majesty! Terrible news from the front lines! Morack's army has completely captured Stonehold City!
01:00:43General Fulton had his neck crushed by Morack!
01:00:52No! That's impossible! My brothers fought in countless battles! Stonehold City was supposed to
01:00:58be imprezzable! How could it fall so fast? How could he die?
01:01:02Enough, Irene! All your grand lies have mislaid the court and ruined the kingdom's plans! Now Morack's
01:01:08army has broken through the north and is marching straight for the capital! Tell me, at this point,
01:01:13is there even a way to turn this around? Your Majesty, please calm your anger! I have one final
01:01:25plan that can save the kingdom from destruction! Then spit it out, now! The soldiers in capital are
01:01:31too weak to stop Morlock's hundred thousand elite riders! The only option is to send envoys to the
01:01:37Orkin Empire, offer them whatever they want in exchange for their forces to crush this rebellion!
01:01:44Absolutely not! I will never agree to something this insane!
01:01:48Your Majesty, remember my final warning. Never forget it. The Orcs are savage by nature, bloodthirsty
01:01:57and ambitious. They've always coveted the rich lands of Cade. They can never be trusted.
01:02:02I have never forgotten Hera's warning. The Orcs are greedy wolves. Allying with them would
01:02:08be suicidal. It could destroy Cade.
01:02:12Your Majesty, this is no time to hesitate. Mordek's army is launching straight for us. He wants your throne.
01:02:18The Orcs only want gold, food, and a small piece of border territory. If paying that price protects
01:02:23your crown and saves all our lives, it's more than worth it.
01:02:27Fine. We've almost reached the dead end. There's no other choice now. I'll take the risk.
01:02:32Rest easy, Your Majesty. I'll send trusted envoys to the Orc Empire tonight to secure the Alliance and get
01:02:37their army as fast as possible.
01:02:54Marshal Hera, the undefeated goddess of war. Your Majesty, you're finally here. I've waited day and night for this moment.
01:02:59You have no idea how those snakes in the royal court slandered you, humiliated you, and trampled all
01:03:05over your loyalty in front of the entire palace. I'm clear with everything. You've carried too much
01:03:09anger and injustice these past months. King's blind and Irene controls the court. I understand exactly
01:03:14what's going on. But we're warriors to protect the people. No matter what happens, we cannot start a war
01:03:20lightly. Now I need you to order the army to withdraw north. Show the kingdom our sincerity. I'll personally
01:03:27return to the capital and negotiate with the king one last time. If he still insists on dragging the
01:03:31kingdom deeper into ruin, we'll march and take back justice for everyone.
01:03:37Marshal Hera, I don't want my soldiers dying meaninglessly either. I'll follow every order you
01:03:42give without question. My ministers, Morlach has completely taken Stonehold City. His rebel army
01:03:51could arrive at the capital any moment now. So does anyone here have a plan to save this kingdom?
01:03:57Amazing. You talk endlessly like genius every day. But now that the kingdom's collapsing,
01:04:02suddenly everyone's silent? Where is my royal guard? Why is there not been one soldier here to
01:04:08protect me? Your majesty, the royal family has already lost the people's support completely.
01:04:13Disasters spread across the kingdom, but the court failed to help the citizens. Then taxes kept rising
01:04:18again and again. The people's anger has reached its limit. At this point, the royal guard exists in name alone.
01:04:26The orcs are probably still days away. There's no army and no general left in the capital.
01:04:31If Morlach attacks now, my throne, my life, my everything are gone.
01:04:37Urgent military report, your majesty. Speak! What happened? Morlach's 100,000-man army has completely
01:04:45withdrawn. What? They retreated. Why would they suddenly pull back without reasons? I couldn't
01:04:51uncover the reason, your majesty. But I personally saw the entire army break camp and retreat over a hundred miles
01:04:57north.
01:05:01Your majesty. Isn't the answer obvious? My strategy worked perfectly. Just the threat of my preparations
01:05:10alone terrified Morlach so badly that he fled without even fighting.
01:05:18Then would you explain what strategy scared away a hundred thousand elite soldiers overnight?
01:05:24I secretly sent trusted envoys to the orc emperor long ago. The alliance has already been secured.
01:05:31Their elite reinforcements are on the way to the capital as we speak. Morlach must have learned about
01:05:36it and realizes he could never defeat our combined forces. So that's why! Irene's brilliant strategy
01:05:42intimidated the rebels and forced back a hundred thousand enemy troops without sacrificing a single
01:05:47soldier from the capital. Irene, you are the kingdom's greatest killer. My most trusted
01:05:53minister. Your majesty, please reconsider. You cannot make this mistake. It's killing ourselves.
01:05:59They are long coveting our lands. Even the late king personally led to campaign against them and died
01:06:03on the battlefield. That blood feed hasn't been settled. How can you bow your head to our greatest
01:06:07enemy and invite them into our kingdom? You're condemning Kay to destruction with your own hands.
01:06:12Your majesty, think carefully. The orcs are cruel by nature. Once they cross our borders,
01:06:18every town in their path will be burnt and looted. Countless innocent civilians will be slaughtered.
01:06:23The people of Cade will be dragged straight into hell.
01:06:27Is the man on the wall, General Garrick? Open the gate immediately. Your King Moses ordered my army to
01:06:34enter the city, crush the rebels, and capture Morlach.
01:06:40This concerns the safety of the capital and the lives of every citizen inside.
01:06:47I need to verify the royal decree myself before opening the gates.
01:06:52How dare you? You're just a gate commander and you dare disobey your King's orders?
01:06:58Delaying military business alone is enough reason for me to cut your head off right now.
01:07:06General! General! Urgent news from the front lines. Morlach's entire army has already withdrawn.
01:07:13The capital's no longer under threat. Commander Gromge, I've received confirmed military reports.
01:07:20The rebels already retreated north. Your mission here is over. Take your army and return to the old empire
01:07:26immediately. No remain near the capital. You think I marched all this way for nothing?
01:07:35Don't be ridiculous. Warriors attack the city. Burn this capital to the ground. Take whatever you
01:07:42want. Gold, food, treasures, women, everything inside belongs to you. Show no mercy. All troops prepare for
01:07:49battle. Archers! Fire! Drop the stones! Pour the oil! Hold the gates!
01:08:00Gromge! You savage beast! Never trample the capital of Cadet!
01:08:22Kill whoever you want! Take! Enter the city! Loot everything! Burn everything! Kill whoever you want!
01:08:30Take whatever you want! Tonight, we feast!
01:08:40Urgent! Your Majesty! Gromge has forcibly breached the main gate. General Garrick,
01:08:44who was defending the capital, has fallen in battle. He died fighting to the end.
01:08:50No, no, no! That's impossible!
01:08:53Garick was personally appointed by the late king.
01:08:58He fought through his entire life on the battlefield and defended this kingdom for decades!
01:09:05How could he just die like that? It's true, Your Majesty. I saw it with my own eyes. General
01:09:12Garrick fought Gromge alone and never backed down until the final blow from the axe struck him down on
01:09:17the city wall. The orc army is advancing at full speed. Within half a day, they will reach the palace
01:09:22gates.
01:09:26It's the end. The capital is gone. Who can protect me? Who can save Cade? I don't want to die
01:09:33by those monsters.
01:09:34Your Majesty! The capital has fallen into chaos. Our defenses are collapsing. Our soldiers are dead on
01:09:39the battlefield. And innocent pavilions are being slaughtered! We're caused by Irene! She invited orc
01:09:44forces into our land. She dragged the entire kingdom into hell! She must be executed immediately!
01:09:48Only her death can climb the people's rage! Execute Irene! Pay for the capital with her life!
01:09:58Your Majesty! Please believe me! I never betrayed the kingdom! I only wanted to use the foreign to
01:10:03stabilize the situation and protect you! I am loyal to you! I was misled! I never intended this outcome!
01:10:10Irene! You're nothing but a dirty liar! You deceived the king! You pushed out loyal medicines! You brought
01:10:17foreign beasts into our homeland to slaughter our people! Your crimes are unforgivable! I will end you myself!
01:10:25Your Majesty! Save me! Stop him! Don't kill me! I'm still useful!
01:10:34Please! Your Majesty! Spare me! I can still help you! I can serve you with my everything!
01:10:42Irene, there's no way out anymore. The kingdom has reached its end. Only your death can calm everyone's rage.
01:10:50Only then will I have the face to beg Hera to return. Right now, she is the only one who
01:10:55can save Cade.
01:10:57Byron, give me the sword.
01:11:01Your Majesty! Your Majesty! What are you doing? No, please! Spare me! I'm loyal to you!
01:11:05I will personally execute you who destroyed my kingdom. I regret it. I regret ever listening to you.
01:11:10Please! No! Please! I was wrong! I beg you!
01:11:44Hira, are you really going back?
01:11:45Back to the battlefield? To fight orcs?
01:11:48The whole of Cade is drowning in war and suffering.
01:11:51For every innocent life caught in this chaos, I have no choice.
01:11:56Then come back alive.
01:11:58When you do, I'll give you a big wedding.
01:12:03The orcs? No way. The palace is impenetrable. How could they reach us this fast?
01:12:08Of course I arranged everything. Sir, it's me who opened the hidden gate so that you could break in. You
01:12:14must protect me.
01:12:15You're right. Thanks to you, we could break into the palace this easily.
01:12:18You witch! You betrayed me and the kingdom for glory, colluded with our enemies and stained your hands with countless
01:12:24lives.
01:12:24You are the true traitor of Cade. Unforgivable for all eternity.
01:12:28I regret it. I truly regret it. I was blinded by your evil lies and exiled Hira on my own.
01:12:34You regret it? Too late! You were the one who killed the loyal and forced Hira out. Everything happening now
01:12:40is your own doing. You never deserve the throne. You are nothing but a weak and incompetent king.
01:12:47Hera, I was wrong. I was truly wrong.
01:12:51Your majesty! The situation is hopeless. I'll hold them off while you flee at once.
01:12:57I am the king of Cade. How can a king run away? I won't leave!
01:13:04Your majesty, please! Leave now or it's too late!
01:13:11Ha ha ha ha! There's nowhere left to run! Cade's over today!
01:13:18I will protect the king to my last bleth!
01:13:21Aaaaaah!
01:13:38Your majesty! Run!
01:13:45Pathetic old man!
01:13:47Aaaaaah!
01:13:50Thorn, I'm sorry! I should have listened to you!
01:13:54Your Majesty, don't say that. Run. Only you can save Cade.
01:14:05In our old empire, we have a punishment for fallen things.
01:14:10It's called Forsaken Prisoner.
01:14:14Bring the chains and the collar! Let him be humiliated by a slave!
01:14:23Kill me! Just kill me! I'd rather die than be humiliated like this! Please!
01:14:29Death? Not yet. Crawl. Show everyone what the king has become.
01:14:43The End
01:14:45The End
