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.
00:17Young master, we've arrived.
00:18A mute heir to a magic house. No wonder he was thrown away.
00:27As a thousand year house of magic, we have no place for a magicless wretch who can't cast a single
00:34spell.
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.
00:59Could you show me the way to the main hall?
01:01I'm lost.
01:01What are you waving for, little mute cult?
01:03I don't get mute signs.
01:13Infernal fool.
01:14I've killed countless before.
01:17I'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.
01:32Who wants everything behind me!
01:37Me .
01:38Oh!
01:52It's part of a scene.
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 3.
02:34It left me mute, unable to cast ordinary spells.
02:38Aldrich, 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.
02:52And repent at my mother's grave.
03:03Silent Freak!
03:05What 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? He is mute.
03:16Are 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.
03:28I...
03:29Father, please, don't be mad.
03:31Child.
03:34I know the family failed you.
03:36And your mother.
03:37But Grandpa would set things right now.
03:48You are a Malven.
03:50And 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.
04:02Aldrich, 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.
04:21Aldrich, how could you say that?
04:23Refute.
04:24At least the wretch knows his place.
04:26I offered you a second chance for the sake of our bloodline.
04:29I saved you from wandering like a stray.
04:32House 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, that's all.
04:46Please, Master Aldrich.
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.
05:04It 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.
05:14He 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?
05:31Aldrich, perhaps I could 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, kill him.
06:06It worked!
06:09No!
06:13No!
06:17No!
06:18No!
06:20It worked!
06:26No, ancient and forbidden magic.
06:30The Thornheart curse?
06:32Not even an archmast would dare act under that curse.
06:35One struggle, and the body tears itself apart.
06:40Father, Eldrick is only ten!
06:43That 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 shall beg for death.
06:58Huh? What's this?
07:01Ruth!
07:02Oh wow, so this is what your mother left you.
07:06Look at that!
07:07The mute's so desperate, he's nearly speaking!
07:13Alright, here you go.
07:21Dying for a useless little freak like you?
07:24Your mother was truly pathetic.
07:26Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
07:30Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
07:35Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
07:38Ahhhh!
07:38Aldrich, stop at once!
07:40Your body will be torn apart!
07:41Aldrich!
07:43Please don't!
07:44No!
07:45No!
08:03Prepare!
08:04To die!
08:07To die!
08:17He broke through the Thornheart curse.
08:20Aldric, was this your true power all along?
08:30High Mage Emery?
08:33The silence curse remains incomplete.
08:36Forcing this much power out is still too taxing.
08:42So that power came from a High Mage after all?
08:47Exactly! 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.
09:10Aldric!
09:12I shall overlook your actions this once.
09:14Go to your room and rest.
09:16Young Master, follow me.
09:19I shall forgive you.
09:24I shall forgive you.
09:37Dr.
09:37Dr.
09:44Silence curse mutes me to forge my heart.
09:47Two more days, I will get my power back.
10:07What kind of power is this?
10:20A supreme mage it is channeling nearby. If I continue, my mana will collapse.
10:28Master Merlin! Her Majesty suffered a mana backlash. She's coughing blood!
10:40What?
10:48A grand Archermeist, still alive at this age.
10:55Heavens, I have seen such crushing power.
10:59Mana like this, from the forgotten Malvin estate. Whoever he is, he could swallow a city.
11:07How could a fallen miner house deserve such a master?
11:12Before him I am nothing. I 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. I'm Emery. Your grandfather hired me to teach you basic magic.
11:43Only Bloodline keeps him in this house. Who does he think he is?
12:04Seven Hardest Grimators. Pick one. Memorize it in a day. I'll only guide you three times.
12:09Children's primers. And she calls them difficult.
12:12I am well aware your mind is empty. And you have never known such high arts, but...
12:17Shhh. Choose. Now.
12:26Magic most evil?
12:31What is this supposed to mean?
12:34Are you refusing to study any of them? All seven?
12:38Who do you think you are, a god of magic? These take decades to master, not ours.
12:47Worthless wretch. Are you mocking me? I am a high mage of...
12:51Every spell in these seven books. I had mastered them. All by the age of three.
12:57Telepathy? Even an archmace would need decades. He is ten. How?
13:02Have you lost your voice as well?
13:05Fine, you have some talent. But mastering these at three? Absurd.
13:12Prove it. Use all that spellcraft you read in those ancient books.
13:18Jewel me.
13:23A stick? You mean to impress a high mage with that?
13:28Impossible!
13:38What is happening? Is the earth splitting apart?
13:50No earthquake. A mage is casting powerful spell. To the courtyard, now!
13:55I'm right.
14:01Oh! I like this!
14:06Stop it.
14:11Take a minute.
14:20Lots above. This power, it is incomprehensible.
14:24No!
14:26Do your worst!
14:28What the hell? Has the sky fallen?
14:34It's far beyond the Grynicors. But that's all, isn't it?
14:38You little shit!
14:44No, no, no!
14:46No, no!
15:03A��ah!
15:04No!
15:05He won't kill me!
15:08No!
15:10No, no, no!
15:14Caesar!
15:17Madame Emery, what happened?
15:19Say nothing. I am not ready for them to know.
15:23It was nothing more than a demonstration.
15:26I was Madame Emery.
15:28For a moment, I thought this magicless Rhett had caused all that noise.
15:32If that is all, we shall leave you to your lesson.
15:40Alright, your magic's strong.
15:42But don't act like my ruin magic's inferior.
16:07Is that Madame Emery's true power? Magnificent!
16:10Damn.
16:11Emery's rune magic is beyond anything I have seen.
16:14No, it was not from Emery.
16:21I must see it myself.
16:28Does this mastery of the array satisfy you?
16:32A storm trick. Nothing more.
16:47Water! Water's now!
16:58Curse it! Is Madame Emery showing off again?
17:00All this for a mute boy. Meaningless.
17:06Enough! Aldric, stop! Your strength is far beyond my expectations.
17:11I beg you, stay your hand.
17:18Aldric, I apologize.
17:20I have no right to be your master.
17:22Master, but I have one request.
17:24Please, accept me as your disciple.
17:27The curse upon my tongue is not yet broken. Not yet time.
17:31Maybe.
17:34Thank you, master!
17:35Master!
17:36I shall not fail you.
17:41Master, the Queen Victoria's banquet tomorrow. You must be there.
17:45Alderac did not fail the Highmaster.
17:47Keeping him in was a fair decision.
17:51Aldric's talent is boundless.
17:53His power shall soon dazzle the whole of Theros.
17:57Dazzle.
17:58Will his name truly around after tomorrow's royal banquet?
18:07Kronimages.
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.
18:18My lord, is it truly that valuable?
18:20More valuable than everything in our faults.
18:24Fail me, and you answer with your life.
18:26Understood, my lord.
18:38At last, the Silence Curse is shattered.
18:42Even at ten, no one could match me.
18:45Behold, Marlogos, the Dark Dread is here.
18:50Hahahaha.
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.
19:07Aldric comes with us.
19:09That is final.
19:11The talent he has shown these past days, it is utterly terrifying.
19:17Aldric's talent is boundless.
19:19His power shall soon dazzle the whole of Theros.
19:23If 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.
19:51This is your chance to honor the Malverns.
19:55Seize it.
19:56I will, Father. I've waited years.
19:59Tonight, I will show them House Malvern has a true prodigy.
20:05Aldric, your cousin Caelan will surely impress the Queen tonight.
20:09And receive her favor.
20:10Just stay humble and serve him.
20:12He'll go easy on you.
20:13I bow to no one.
20:14And I follow no man.
20:16How can you be so stubborn?
20:18I am only trying to protect...
20:20You spoke.
20:23What are you doing?
20:24You'll know soon enough.
20:29Seriously, Emre?
20:30A ten-year-old Mastodarts even you cannot rival?
20:34A mute child who can't chant?
20:36Impossible.
20:37Presenting, the Noble House of Malvern.
20:40If you doubt my eyes, come.
20:41Witness the miracle of this millennium for yourselves.
20:45Then let us see what this boy truly is.
20:50The petty Malverns?
20:51Why would three High Magents greet a minor house?
20:55It must be for Caelan.
20:57They say he has some talent.
21:00Caelan?
21:01He's a mere pretender, not worthy of their gaze.
21:15Caelan, look.
21:16Three High Mages.
21:17All of Theris must know your name.
21:20My son!
21:21You have brought glory to us!
21:23Missing only Her Majesty!
21:25They came from me.
21:34Master Merlin, what troubles you?
21:37Your Majesty, the mana is shifting.
21:40The Grand Archmist is near.
21:43Truly?
21:43Then we must hasten.
21:45I must see myself.
21:46You honor our name today, Masters,
21:48by 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.
22:11Such an oppressive Herrera.
22:14We have awaited your arrival.
22:17Aldric, he is the exiled kin of House Malwin.
22:19Three High Mages gathered to welcome a mute Wret.
22:22Pure madness.
22:24Your Majesty.
22:27Aldric, on your knees.
22:29Do not be insolent.
22:33We're doomed.
22:34This mute Wretch is getting us all executed.
22:36Bringing him was a goddamn mistake.
22:38He has ruined us all.
22:54So you're Queen Victoria.
22:58So you're Queen Victoria.
23:00I thought he was a mute.
23:01He can talk.
23:02How is he speaking?
23:03He was never mute.
23:04This is impossible.
23:08Insolence.
23:09This is Her Majesty.
23:10On your knees.
23:17Stand down.
23:19Your Majesty.
23:19Please forgive Aldric's.
23:20Your Majesty.
23:21That 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?
23:40Aldric 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.
23:53He's not even an apprentice.
23:55Go run back to your mummy.
23:55Oh, that's right.
23:57His mummy's gone.
23:59You asked for this.
24:06Enough!
24:07Forget his age.
24:08He's the strongest mage alive.
24:13The strongest mage?
24:15Seriously?
24:23Gavin, is Emery telling the truth?
24:25About your exceptionally powerful grandson.
24:27Your Majesty, I...
24:29Your 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.
24:42How can a spellless freak compare to my son?
24:44He's a real prodigy.
24:47Words are cheap, boy.
24:49If Emery thinks so highly of you, represent House Malvin in tomorrow's royal trial and prove yourself.
24:55House Malvin doesn't deserve me.
24:57No!
24:58I don't accept this!
24:59He's a useless mute!
25:01I'm the future of House Malvin!
25:02I've trained for years!
25:04How can he take my place?
25:05Silence, Kaelin!
25:07No!
25:07I was meant to be the one!
25:22A high mage has spoken!
25:24Your power isn't even a tenth of his!
25:27Grandpa...
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 Malvin has wronged you and your mother.
26:05We need you, Aldric.
26:06House Malvin's been looked down on for years.
26:09Help us prove them wrong tomorrow.
26:11I'm not a Malvern.
26:13Why should I fight for strangers?
26:17Blood is law.
26:19You are Aldric Malvin.
26:20Your name is your legacy.
26:23From now on, there is no Aldric Malvin.
26:26Call me Marlogas.
26:32Sir, the registration scroll for tomorrow's trial.
26:35Please sign here.
26:49Grandpa is begging you.
26:52One condition.
26:53Name it.
26:53I shall grant whatever you say.
26:55After my mother and I were cast out,
26:57we suffered more than you could ever know.
27:00I survived,
27:00yet my mother was swallowed by disease and died.
27:04I'm not here to rejoin this family.
27:06I'm here to get justice for my mother.
27:08If I win tomorrow,
27:10you'll all kneel at my mother's grave
27:12and admit you were wrong about us.
27:17You bastard!
27:18How dare you say that!
27:20You don't sleep at all.
27:20I got all that equipment.
27:20He just Motion.
