00:00:04Oh no! They're on us! Warriors! Do not let the Orcs cross our borders! Turn back and fight!
00:00:19Gods help me! I was a fool! I should have listened to Hera! I should never have led the campaign!
00:00:25Never set foot in the Orc Empire!
00:00:35Poor bugs!
00:00:50Hera!
00:00:52Get the king out of here! I'll hold them off!
00:01:11The gods are punishing me. Hera, I'm sorry. I didn't heed your warning. Blinded by pride, I sought a name
00:01:19that would outlive me and nearly cast the kingdom's border into ruin.
00:01:23Your Majesty, just save your strength. You need to stay alive.
00:01:28My time's over. Moses is too young, too reckless. He can't carry this kingdom alone.
00:01:35Your Majesty.
00:01:36Then hear my final command. Guide him. Protect him. Don't let Cayde fall.
00:01:41Moses, Hera is no ordinary woman. The gods chose her. As long as she stands with Cayde, this kingdom will
00:01:47never fall. Listen to her. You're bound together by your engagement. Rule this land side by side.
00:01:53Father, I swear it. Father, I swear it. I swear on all the gods. I'll trust her and listen to
00:01:59her. I'll become the king this kingdom needs.
00:02:03The gods' power isn't endless. But for Moses, for Cayde, I'll give everything I have.
00:02:10Good. Good.
00:02:15Father! Father!
00:02:18Long live the king.
00:02:23Rise.
00:02:24Moses ascended the throne smoothly, while Hera took charge of the royal court as regent. Under her rule, the kingdom
00:02:30of Cayde grew stronger with each passing day.
00:02:32But endless days and sleepless nights reopened Hera's old wounds, and slowly drained the gods' power within her.
00:02:41Your Majesty! Urgent news from the border! The Orc Empire has invaded! We're under attack!
00:02:47Those beasts dare invade Cayde? Who will drive them back for me?
00:02:53I'll lead the army, drown the border in their blood, and bring peace back to Cayde.
00:03:01Hera, I've seen everything you've done this past year. The people worship you. When you return victorious, I'll honor our
00:03:09engagement. I'll marry you with the grandest ceremony this kingdom has ever seen.
00:03:13My king, I won't fail you.
00:03:20Poor humans! You dare stand in the way of the Orc Empire? Today every last one of you die!
00:03:33The Scepter of Light! You're carrying the relic!
00:03:40Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! So your godly power has limits after all.
00:03:45Charge! Kill this bitch! Kill humanity's last godsworn! Crush the woman-guarded court into utter despair!
00:03:55Fall back!
00:03:56Fall back!
00:04:06In the gods' name, godful Ashgray!
00:04:09All back!
00:04:13Kill you witch-rust woman! We'll return!
00:04:16And when we do, how will you alone stand against my million-strong tide of beasts?
00:04:23All back!
00:04:25Kill you!
00:04:33Commander! Dear God! You're gravely wounded! I'll get a healer right now! Just hang on!
00:04:41I'm fine. At least the enemy's gone.
00:04:48Hera's a monster. She nearly crushed the Orc Empire by herself.
00:04:51Of course! Now the king must fulfill his promise and marry her.
00:04:54This wedding will go down in Cade's history.
00:05:06Your Majesty.
00:05:09Hera.
00:05:15Hera! Do you know your crime?
00:05:21Your Majesty.
00:05:24What guilt do I have?
00:05:28You failed in war. And you still dare question me?
00:05:32One border war dragged on for three whole years.
00:05:35You had the power of the gods, yet countless Cade-aid soldiers still died.
00:05:39Our people worked themselves to the bones supplying your war, food and weapons.
00:05:43You nearly bled this kingdom dry and you still claim you're innocent?
00:05:46Your Majesty. That was a million beast horde. Even a god's war has limits.
00:05:51He's right. Without Hera holding the border, Cade would have fallen already.
00:05:55Nonsense. She's the god sworn. Someone with her power should have ended the war long ago.
00:06:00The only reason it dragged on is because she wanted it to. She used the enemy to weaken the kingdom
00:06:05and weaken the king's authority.
00:06:07What exactly were you plotting? Everything I did was for Cade. For the soldiers. For the people. I nearly gave
00:06:13my life for this victory.
00:06:14Enough! Shut your mouth. As of today, you are stripped of your position as regent. Irene will take your place.
00:06:20She understands strategy and politics far better than you to guide the kingdom.
00:06:23Irene has never led an army. She knows nothing about war or governance. Handing her this kingdom is digging Cade's
00:06:30brain with your own hands.
00:06:31How dare you? You dare defy the king? Kneel!
00:06:38Your Majesty, please reconsider her. Perish-led blood for this kingdom. You can't treat her like this.
00:06:45Treasonous fool. You dare oppose the king's command? Guards, drag him out and execute him immediately.
00:06:50I promised King Taylor I would give Moses 100 chances. Now there are only two left. When they're gone, so
00:07:00am I.
00:07:03As you command.
00:07:06Hera, I made this for you myself. It carries my heart with it. In this life, I'll only ever love
00:07:12you. As long as I can stay by your side, I'd give up everything.
00:07:16I'll follow you, protect you, love you forever. Without you, this crown means nothing to me. You're my only light,
00:07:24my only love. Let me place this on you.
00:07:28Yes, my king. I'd give everything for you too.
00:07:33This world only worships winners. Nobody pities foolish heroes who throw their lives away.
00:07:40You gambled everything on the battlefield, but the real war is fought on the throne.
00:07:45And you already lost.
00:07:47I burned through my divine power to protect this kingdom.
00:07:50My wounds reopen every night.
00:07:53I cough blood in silence.
00:07:55Yet he never noticed.
00:07:57Never cared.
00:07:59That coldness hurts more than any blade ever could.
00:08:08Commander.
00:08:09We fought through hell to save this kingdom, and this is how they repay you?
00:08:14Those snakes stole your power.
00:08:19Power is just dust.
00:08:21It never mattered to me.
00:08:23Commander, the king's betrayed everyone.
00:08:26You gave everything to Cade, and this is what you got in return?
00:08:29To hell with that king!
00:08:30Commander, let's rebel.
00:08:32Lead us back into the palace and take back what's yours.
00:08:37Enough.
00:08:39Commander, we don't care about power or glory.
00:08:42We just want to protect Cade.
00:08:44To protect the people under under God's blessing.
00:08:47Commander, the king's blind, and the court's full of vipers.
00:08:51A kingdom like this has already been abandoned by the gods.
00:08:54That's enough.
00:08:55Get up.
00:08:56The late king raised me for nothing and entrusted this kingdom to me.
00:09:01Before he died, he placed Cade and Moses in my hands.
00:09:05I swore on the gods that I would never betray this kingdom.
00:09:08Never rebel.
00:09:09Commander, but the king...
00:09:11Enough.
00:09:12Never speak of this again.
00:09:15Commander, the queen mother summons you.
00:09:18Immediately.
00:09:27Your grace.
00:09:28Hera, the gods have seen every injustice done to you.
00:09:31You gave your life for Cade, yet you end up here all because Moses is young and stupid.
00:09:35I've already reprimanded him, and he's praying for forgiveness.
00:09:39Please don't worry about me, your majesty.
00:09:41The king needed to establish authority after taking the throne.
00:09:45Everything I did was my duty.
00:09:46I hold no resentment.
00:09:49Moses is grown now, and the kingdom is stable.
00:09:52It's time to honor the engagement the late king arranged.
00:09:56Marriage should be the king's decision.
00:09:58I wouldn't dare decide for him.
00:10:00The late king swore this oath before the gods.
00:10:03It cannot be changed.
00:10:05If that is the will of the queen mother and the late king, then I will obey.
00:10:09Hera, you are the pillar of Cade.
00:10:10This kingdom owes you.
00:10:12Only with you beside Moses can Cade remain under the gods' protection.
00:10:19Commander, if this marriage makes you unhappy, I can speak to my brother.
00:10:22You don't have to force yourself.
00:10:23I've known the king almost my whole life.
00:10:26And this marriage was the late king's final wish.
00:10:41Commander, if you're angry, take it out on me.
00:10:46Even if I'm to die, I will blame you.
00:10:53Hera!
00:10:54You dared to hit Irene!
00:10:55I swear by the gods.
00:10:57I never touched her.
00:10:58I would never hurt her.
00:11:00I saw it with my own eyes.
00:11:02And you still dare lie before the gods?
00:11:05Please calm down, your majesty.
00:11:07Don't blame the commander.
00:11:08It's my fault for offended her.
00:11:10I deserve punishment.
00:11:12If my suffering eases her anger, then I'll gladly accept it.
00:11:17Hera!
00:11:18I order you to apologize to Irene right now.
00:11:21I did nothing wrong.
00:11:22Why should I apologize?
00:11:24Dare you disobey me?
00:11:25Guards, drag her away and punish her!
00:11:32Traitor!
00:11:45Hera!
00:11:46That was incredible!
00:11:47Teach me!
00:11:48Come here.
00:11:49I'll show you.
00:11:51Calm your mind.
00:11:52Keep your arms steady.
00:11:54Let your eyes follow the arrow.
00:11:56That's the path the gods guide you towards.
00:12:01Hera, you're the one the gods sent to guide me.
00:12:04When the war ends, I'll marry you before the entire kingdom.
00:12:08I'll stay by your side forever and make you the happiest woman in Cade.
00:12:17Brother, stop!
00:12:19She's the pillar of this kingdom.
00:12:21You can't treat her like this.
00:12:23Cain!
00:12:24You dare defy me too?
00:12:26You want punishment as well?
00:12:29Hera spent her whole life fighting for Cade.
00:12:31She drove back the orcs and protected this kingdom.
00:12:33She's blessed by the gods.
00:12:34How can you treat her this way?
00:12:36And I saw everything clearly.
00:12:37It was Rean.
00:12:38She hit herself to frame the commander.
00:12:42You've been blinded by the devil.
00:12:43Guards!
00:12:44Escort Prince Cain back to his chambers.
00:12:46He is confined till further notice.
00:12:53Hera, you've shown complete disrespect to the crown, the royal family, and even the gods.
00:12:58Your crimes deserve death.
00:13:00From this day forward, all your titles are stripped.
00:13:02Your command over the armies is revoked,
00:13:04and the sacred crimp given to you by the late king will be taken back immediately.
00:13:15As you command.
00:13:18One hundred chances.
00:13:20And now, the very last one is gone too.
00:13:28Gods, take Irene to be treated.
00:13:34Moses!
00:13:36That crest was bestowed by the late king in the gods' name.
00:13:40It represents honor and faith.
00:13:43Taking it back is an insult to the gods themselves.
00:13:46Don't worry, mother.
00:13:47Mother, I know exactly what I'm doing.
00:13:50Your wedding is near, yet you humiliated her before everyone.
00:13:54You stripped her power and took her crest.
00:13:56How will you face her afterward?
00:13:58Right now, the people of Cade only know Hera.
00:14:02Not me.
00:14:03If I don't crush her influence before the wedding,
00:14:06this kingdom will belong to her instead of me.
00:14:10Then make them know you.
00:14:14It's fine, mother.
00:14:16She's like the rose with thorns.
00:14:18Only pulling every thorn out makes her truly submit.
00:14:21Only then can she become my loyal wife.
00:14:24Aren't you afraid driving Hera away will bring divine punishment?
00:14:27Don't worry.
00:14:28She's obeyed me for years.
00:14:30The gods bound us together.
00:14:31And 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.
00:14:38You always were a stubborn boy.
00:14:39Besides, after her last campaign,
00:14:41her body's already broken.
00:14:42Taking away her command is for her own good.
00:14:44She needs rest.
00:14:45You're grown now.
00:14:46Just remember to control your decisions anymore.
00:14:49Don't destroy what you and Hera once had.
00:14:52That bond was blessed by the gods.
00:15:02Your Majesty, Hera requests an audience.
00:15:06Let her in.
00:15:14The gods have blessed you, Your Majesty.
00:15:17Your dedication for ruling lately reminds me of the late king.
00:15:21I'm glad to see it.
00:15:23Hera,
00:15:24you've spent years fighting for this kingdom.
00:15:27Your wounds are severe.
00:15:28Now that you've stepped down as commander,
00:15:30just focus on healing
00:15:32and prepare for our wedding.
00:15:33Before I leave the palace,
00:15:35this is the final document I need your approval on.
00:15:42Wonderful news, Your Majesty!
00:15:43The Orc Empire has sent envoys!
00:15:45They want peace talks!
00:15:47Guards!
00:15:48Quickly, get Irene treated!
00:15:50Approved.
00:15:51You may leave now.
00:15:52Hera,
00:15:53I know you've suffered lately.
00:15:54We'll talk everything through after the wedding, okay?
00:16:00Your Majesty.
00:16:03There's no after this anymore.
00:16:05There's no after this anymore.
00:16:21Hera!
00:16:22Are you hurt?
00:16:25I'm fine.
00:16:27It's nothing.
00:16:29No, that's not nothing.
00:16:30To me,
00:16:32you matter more than the throne,
00:16:33more than this kingdom,
00:16:34more 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.
00:16:51Hera!
00:16:52Come home safe.
00:16:54I'll marry you
00:16:55with the grandest ceremony
00:16:56in the kingdom.
00:16:59Hera!
00:17:01Do you plead guilty to your sin?
00:17:05Moses.
00:17:07Hera is no ordinary woman.
00:17:09The gods chose her.
00:17:10I swear on all the gods,
00:17:12I'll trust her and listen to her.
00:17:14I'll become the king
00:17:15this kingdom needs.
00:17:23This world is vast enough
00:17:24that we'll never see each other again.
00:17:33may the gods bless them.
00:17:35The king is finally marrying
00:17:37Commander Hera.
00:17:39What a glorious moment for Cade!
00:17:41I heard she lost her title,
00:17:42her army,
00:17:43even her sacred Christ.
00:17:45Why would they suddenly marry now?
00:17:47You don't understand.
00:17:49The king just wants her
00:17:49to put down her sword
00:17:50and live peacefully beside him.
00:17:52It's out of love.
00:17:53I see.
00:17:54Then we misunderstood his majesty.
00:18:04Your majesty,
00:18:06we've arrived at Hera's estate.
00:18:08What nerve!
00:18:10The king himself arrives.
00:18:12Dare you not come greet him?
00:18:13This is an insult to the crown!
00:18:15Don't blame her.
00:18:17She's been hurt lately.
00:18:18I'll speak to her myself.
00:18:22What's wrong?
00:18:23Where's Hera?
00:18:25Well.
00:18:27Go find her now!
00:18:38Stop!
00:18:45Your majesty.
00:18:47Tell me where Hera is.
00:18:49Answer honestly.
00:18:51Your majesty.
00:18:53Lady Hera left the capital
00:18:54the day she surrendered
00:18:55the sacred crest.
00:18:57I have no idea
00:18:57where she went either.
00:19:02What?
00:19:03No.
00:19:04That's impossible.
00:19:05You're lying.
00:19:06Hera swore to my father
00:19:07she'd take me.
00:19:07Protect Cade.
00:19:08She swore before the gods.
00:19:09She would never leave me.
00:19:10Your majesty.
00:19:10I swear by the gods
00:19:12but dare perceive you.
00:19:13Insolence.
00:19:14How dare you speak
00:19:15such nonsense
00:19:16before his majesty.
00:19:17Hera.
00:19:18Now that you're gone
00:19:19your kingdom
00:19:20and your man
00:19:21are all mine.
00:19:23Your majesty.
00:19:24I swear by the gods.
00:19:25Lady Hera
00:19:26truly left the capital.
00:19:27Before she left
00:19:28she ordered me
00:19:29to throw away
00:19:30all the old belongings
00:19:31in the estate.
00:19:32Hera.
00:19:33Hera.
00:19:33These night bracelets
00:19:34were offered
00:19:34by the lord
00:19:35of the eastern territories.
00:19:36I saved them
00:19:37especially for you.
00:19:38Wear them
00:19:38like I'm always
00:19:39by your side
00:19:40protecting me.
00:19:41I love them.
00:19:43I'll treasure them forever.
00:19:44Old belongings.
00:19:46Could she mean
00:19:47all the things
00:19:48I gave her?
00:19:50Where are they?
00:19:52Over there.
00:19:53Half of them
00:19:54have already burned.
00:20:01Those were my gifts
00:20:02to her.
00:20:12Hera look.
00:20:13This is our vow parchment.
00:20:15It says
00:20:15I'll love Hera forever
00:20:16and we'll never be apart.
00:20:18Yes.
00:20:19We'll be together forever
00:20:20never apart.
00:20:26When you're away at war
00:20:28if you miss me
00:20:29look at this painting.
00:20:32Whenever I miss you
00:20:33I'll keep looking at it.
00:20:37Guards!
00:20:38This man destroyed
00:20:38royal property.
00:20:39Execute him immediately.
00:20:41Guards!
00:20:42This man destroyed
00:20:43royal property.
00:20:44Execute him immediately.
00:20:45Mercy your majesty.
00:20:47I swear by the gods.
00:20:48I didn't know
00:20:49those belonged
00:20:50to the royal family.
00:20:51Please spare me.
00:20:52You can't do this.
00:20:53He didn't know.
00:20:54Your majesty
00:20:55you can't kill him.
00:20:56What?
00:20:56You're defending him now?
00:20:58Lady Hera just left
00:20:59and you already want
00:21:00to execute her old servant.
00:21:01If she hears about this
00:21:02what will she think of you?
00:21:04Right.
00:21:04She just left.
00:21:05She can't have gone far yet.
00:21:07I can still bring Hera back.
00:21:09Hera no longer
00:21:10holds any office.
00:21:11You have no right
00:21:12to force her back.
00:21:15She may not hold office anymore
00:21:17but she is still
00:21:18my rightful fiance.
00:21:19I have every right
00:21:20to bring her back.
00:21:22Hera abandoned
00:21:23the royal wedding
00:21:24and disgraced the crown
00:21:25before the entire kingdom.
00:21:26That's treason
00:21:27against the royal family
00:21:28and betrayal of the gods.
00:21:30A crime worthy of death.
00:21:32Exactly!
00:21:33Hera deserves
00:21:34to die for this!
00:21:36Brother,
00:21:38have you ever stopped
00:21:39to think why Hera
00:21:39left without a word?
00:21:41Have you reflected
00:21:42on anything you've done?
00:21:45Cain,
00:21:46are you saying
00:21:47all of this is my fault?
00:21:48I would never dare.
00:21:49Enough!
00:21:50Get out!
00:21:51I don't want to see you
00:21:51right now!
00:21:56And you,
00:21:57do you think
00:21:58this is my fault too?
00:22:00Of course not.
00:22:01This is all Hera's doing.
00:22:03She's manipulated
00:22:04everyone around her.
00:22:05She bewitched Cain
00:22:06with that pretty face
00:22:08of hopes.
00:22:09That's why
00:22:10he keeps defending her.
00:22:11I knew it!
00:22:13Cain must have
00:22:14feelings for Hera.
00:22:15But now,
00:22:16how do I fix this mess?
00:22:18I thought marrying her
00:22:20would stabilize the kingdom.
00:22:21But she escaped,
00:22:23turning me into
00:22:24a joke of the whole kingdom.
00:22:26I have a solution,
00:22:28your majesty.
00:22:29Say it!
00:22:30The only way
00:22:31to calm the royal court
00:22:33and the people
00:22:34is to find someone
00:22:35to impersonate Hera
00:22:37until this crisis passes.
00:22:39Your height and figure
00:22:40are close enough
00:22:41to Hera's.
00:22:41You'll do.
00:22:44Your majesty.
00:22:47I'm afraid
00:22:47I may not be worthy
00:22:48enough for such a role.
00:22:49That was not a request.
00:22:51It's an order.
00:22:52Do you dare refuse me?
00:22:55I,
00:22:56as you command.
00:23:02Hera,
00:23:03the kingdom you built
00:23:04and the man you loved.
00:23:06From now on,
00:23:07they'll all belong to me.
00:23:09Hera,
00:23:10I am the king of Cade,
00:23:11the ruler of this world.
00:23:13No one's allowed
00:23:14to defy me.
00:23:24Hera,
00:23:25is that you?
00:23:26You finally came back to me.
00:23:28My Hera.
00:23:30I knew you were hurt before.
00:23:34But why wouldn't you
00:23:35just listen to me?
00:23:36I wanted to tell you
00:23:38everything
00:23:38on our wedding night.
00:23:43Hera,
00:23:44I fell in love with you
00:23:45the very first moment
00:23:46I saw you.
00:23:47But I'm a king,
00:23:48I wasn't just myself.
00:23:51Couldn't you have understood
00:23:51me just a little more?
00:23:53But don't worry,
00:23:55I'll make it up to you
00:23:56from now on.
00:23:58Irene even taught me
00:24:00how to please a woman.
00:24:01I'll make you happy.
00:24:03I'll make all your pain
00:24:04disappear.
00:24:07Why is it you?
00:24:09Irene,
00:24:09where's my Hera?
00:24:14Your majesty,
00:24:15we located Hera.
00:24:17She's currently in the
00:24:17Essos Ridge region.
00:24:19Great,
00:24:19I'm leaving immediately.
00:24:21I'll bring Hera
00:24:21back myself.
00:24:23Hera,
00:24:24you bitch.
00:24:25I'll send the Shadow
00:24:26Eclipse assassins
00:24:27to kill you in Essos Ridge
00:24:28before Moses ever reaches you.
00:24:30Never steal Moses
00:24:31from me again.
00:24:39Your mind's somewhere else tonight.
00:24:41After everything you did
00:24:42for Cade,
00:24:43after all your victories,
00:24:45this is how the king
00:24:46repaid you.
00:24:47How can the world
00:24:47be this unfair?
00:24:48I spent my whole life
00:24:50fighting wars
00:24:50for the kingdom.
00:24:52Now that I finally
00:24:53have peace,
00:24:53you should be happy
00:24:54for me.
00:24:56Maybe so.
00:24:58But it's still
00:24:59so unfair.
00:25:00It's heartbreaking.
00:25:05Look out!
00:25:12Such strong magic.
00:25:13They aren't
00:25:14ordinary assassins.
00:25:20Hera,
00:25:20time to die.
00:25:29Don't touch her!
00:25:40Gareth!
00:25:58Your power is impressive,
00:26:00but your old wounds
00:26:02never healed.
00:26:03You're finished.
00:26:05Tonight,
00:26:07I'm taking your life.
00:26:09Who sent you?
00:26:11Who else in Cade
00:26:13has this kind of power
00:26:13besides the king himself?
00:26:16Don't touch her!
00:26:21Cain,
00:26:21stay with me.
00:26:23You can't die.
00:26:25You can't die.
00:26:41So it's true,
00:26:42Hera.
00:26:42I knew there was
00:26:43something between you
00:26:44and Cain.
00:26:45I came all this way
00:26:46to bring you back,
00:26:47and this is what I find?
00:26:49Sneaking around
00:26:49with my own brother?
00:26:51Why be so silly?
00:26:52You're a prince.
00:26:54Why would you throw yourself
00:26:55in front of that blade
00:26:56for me?
00:26:57It's not worth...
00:26:58Lady Hera,
00:26:59you gave everything
00:27:00for Cade,
00:27:00for its people.
00:27:02It's my honor
00:27:03to save you.
00:27:03I dreamed of marrying you,
00:27:05of ruling this kingdom together,
00:27:07and all this time
00:27:09you were with my brother?
00:27:10Don't think I can't
00:27:11see the truth.
00:27:13You ran from the wedding
00:27:14because you wanted
00:27:14to elope with Cain.
00:27:18Brother,
00:27:19you've got it wrong.
00:27:20I...
00:27:21I only followed
00:27:22because I was worried
00:27:23Hera might be in danger.
00:27:24We...
00:27:25We weren't running
00:27:25away together.
00:27:26You expect me
00:27:27to believe that?
00:27:28If your majesty
00:27:29has already decided
00:27:30what to believe,
00:27:32then there's nothing
00:27:33left to explain.
00:27:34Since you have
00:27:35nothing to say,
00:27:36guards,
00:27:37execute Hera,
00:27:39now!
00:27:45That's a royal command!
00:27:46Are you all
00:27:47defying your king now?
00:27:48Your...
00:27:49Your majesty,
00:27:50Hera fought
00:27:50and bled for this kingdom,
00:27:52earned countless honors.
00:27:53You...
00:27:54You cannot execute her.
00:27:55If none of you
00:27:56have the guts,
00:27:57I'll do.
00:27:59Your majesty,
00:28:00Hera sacrificed
00:28:01everything for this kingdom.
00:28:03How...
00:28:03How can you be
00:28:04so cruel to her?
00:28:06Everything I've done
00:28:07in this life,
00:28:08I can answer
00:28:09for before myself
00:28:10and before this land.
00:28:11Answer for yourself?
00:28:12Then what about
00:28:13our engagement?
00:28:14You abandoned me
00:28:15on our wedding day
00:28:16and humiliated the royal family
00:28:17before the entire kingdom.
00:28:18Did you ever think
00:28:19about me?
00:28:20Do you remember
00:28:21the document I handed you
00:28:22the last time I came
00:28:23to see you?
00:28:23You approved it yourself.
00:28:26The document?
00:28:28The document?
00:28:33Your majesty,
00:28:34I need your approval.
00:28:36The Orc Empire
00:28:37has sent envoys!
00:28:38They want peace talks!
00:28:38Ah!
00:28:41Approved.
00:28:41You may leave now.
00:28:43Someone!
00:28:44Bring me that document!
00:28:46Now!
00:28:52No!
00:28:53No, it's not true!
00:28:54This has to be fake!
00:28:58Read carefully.
00:28:59It's real.
00:29:01How?
00:29:02How did this happen?
00:29:04Why didn't I know about this?
00:29:05Who kept this from me?
00:29:06Who?
00:29:07It was you!
00:29:08Take him out
00:29:09and execute him now!
00:29:10Your majesty, please!
00:29:11I swear I hid nothing!
00:29:12You approved it
00:29:13without even a glance!
00:29:14Hera,
00:29:15I swear to the gods,
00:29:17I didn't know
00:29:17it was a cancellation document.
00:29:19Please believe me.
00:29:20It's already done.
00:29:22Our engagement was over.
00:29:23There's nothing left
00:29:24between us now.
00:29:25You promised my father!
00:29:27You promised to protect Caden,
00:29:29to protect my throne!
00:29:30I did.
00:29:32And I fulfilled the promise.
00:29:34Then that means you can still-
00:29:35I once swore before the gods
00:29:36that I would give you
00:29:37one hundred chances.
00:29:39You've used every last one.
00:29:41One hundred?
00:29:42How could they all be gone already?
00:29:44No!
00:29:45You're lying to me!
00:29:46That was a hundred chances!
00:29:47There's no way
00:29:48they're gone already!
00:29:49You are stripped
00:29:50of your position as regent.
00:29:51Irene will take your place.
00:29:53As you command.
00:29:56Pity's foolish heroes
00:29:57who throw their lives away.
00:30:03From this day on,
00:30:04we are neither ruler and subject,
00:30:07nor husband and wife.
00:30:15Now the hundred chances
00:30:17are truly gone.
00:30:19It's time to leave.
00:30:22Everything in Kato
00:30:23belongs to me!
00:30:24Including you!
00:30:26I'd kill you
00:30:27rather than let you leave me!
00:30:32Fine.
00:30:34If you truly want my life,
00:30:35then take it.
00:30:37Your Majesty!
00:30:38You can't kill her!
00:30:42She'd rather be killed
00:30:43than come back to me.
00:30:45Your Majesty!
00:30:46You can't kill her!
00:30:51Your Highness,
00:30:53you don't have to do this.
00:30:55Your Majesty,
00:30:56Lady Hera has done
00:30:57too much for Kade.
00:30:58If you kill her like this,
00:31:00the kingdom will fall into chaos.
00:31:01She chose this herself,
00:31:02I didn't mean to.
00:31:05I beg you,
00:31:06Your Majesty,
00:31:07spare her life.
00:31:08Why do you care about her so much?
00:31:10This isn't personal.
00:31:12But the people know
00:31:13right from wrong.
00:31:14If you execute
00:31:15a national hero
00:31:16without cause,
00:31:17neither the nobles
00:31:18nor the people
00:31:19will accept it.
00:31:20Good.
00:31:21Everyone says
00:31:22Hera has the people
00:31:22behind her.
00:31:23Power everywhere.
00:31:25Loyal followers
00:31:26everywhere she goes.
00:31:27Yeah,
00:31:27that is terrifying.
00:31:28Your Majesty,
00:31:29please don't say that.
00:31:30The late king
00:31:31changed my life.
00:31:32He trusted me,
00:31:33believed in me.
00:31:34I'll never forget
00:31:35that kindness.
00:31:36So don't worry,
00:31:37Your Majesty.
00:31:37I will never rebel.
00:31:39You won't.
00:31:39But what about your men?
00:31:41Gavin,
00:31:41Aaron,
00:31:42Thor?
00:31:42Every one of them
00:31:43is a deadly commander.
00:31:44Can you guarantee
00:31:44they won't turn against me?
00:31:55I'll let them lay down
00:31:56their titles
00:31:56and return home.
00:31:57The royal family
00:31:58will face no threat
00:31:59from them.
00:32:00You have my word.
00:32:01I can let you leave,
00:32:03but you must promise me
00:32:04never serve another kingdom.
00:32:06Marshal Hera
00:32:07is unbelievably talented.
00:32:08What a waste
00:32:09to be chained down by them.
00:32:10Watch your tongue!
00:32:11Dare question royal affairs
00:32:12in front of me
00:32:12want to die?
00:32:15And that's not enough.
00:32:16Swear before the gods
00:32:17that you will never
00:32:18serve anyone else
00:32:19for the rest of your life,
00:32:20or you'll be punished
00:32:21with God's harshest judgment.
00:32:23I accept.
00:32:24I, Hera,
00:32:25swear before the gods.
00:32:26For the rest of my life,
00:32:27I will fight me for Cade
00:32:28and remain loyal
00:32:29only to Cade.
00:32:30I will never serve
00:32:31another kingdom or power.
00:32:32If I break this oath,
00:32:33may the gods deliver
00:32:34their harshest punishment
00:32:35upon me.
00:32:36Hera!
00:32:36You'd rather abandon
00:32:38all your talent
00:32:38and disappear into the wilderness
00:32:40than stay by my side?
00:32:41I already gave
00:32:42the first half
00:32:43of my life to Cade.
00:32:44I fulfilled
00:32:45the late king's
00:32:46final wish.
00:32:48Now it's time
00:32:48for me to leave.
00:32:50I want to travel
00:32:51the world,
00:32:52live the rest
00:32:53of my life in peace
00:32:54and never involve
00:32:54myself in the kingdom again.
00:32:56You good, Hera!
00:32:57So you really think
00:32:58Cade will fall apart
00:32:59without you?
00:32:59That I can't rule
00:33:00this kingdom without you?
00:33:01You seriously
00:33:02overestimate yourself.
00:33:03I never thought that.
00:33:04That's exactly
00:33:05what you think.
00:33:06Lucky for Cade,
00:33:07there's never a shortage
00:33:08of warriors
00:33:09or brilliant minds.
00:33:10With Irene
00:33:11leading the kingdom,
00:33:13Cade will thrive
00:33:13just fine.
00:33:14Better than ever,
00:33:15actually.
00:33:16I won't disappoint
00:33:17your majesty's trust.
00:33:21Moses is still young.
00:33:23I'm only trusting
00:33:24with him
00:33:25and the kingdom's future.
00:33:28I'll give it
00:33:28everything I have.
00:33:29The late king
00:33:30entrusted everything
00:33:31to me before he died.
00:33:33No matter what,
00:33:34I have to do
00:33:34last thing for Cade.
00:33:35Your majesty is wise.
00:33:37Before I leave,
00:33:39there are three things
00:33:40I beg you to remember.
00:33:41Interesting.
00:33:42So even you have
00:33:43something to beg me
00:33:44for now.
00:33:45First,
00:33:46Cade has suffered
00:33:47through years of war.
00:33:48The people are exhausted.
00:33:50Lower the taxes
00:33:51and don't burden
00:33:52them any further.
00:33:53I already know that.
00:33:55Second,
00:33:55the northern cities
00:33:56were only recently subdued.
00:33:58Morrill and his men
00:33:59are fierce and proud.
00:34:00While I was here,
00:34:01I could keep them loyal.
00:34:02Please treat them
00:34:03with mercy and respect.
00:34:04If you push them too hard,
00:34:05they will rebel,
00:34:06which will bring disaster
00:34:07to the kingdom.
00:34:16Lord Moriach,
00:34:17unstoppable!
00:34:18One man against
00:34:1910,000!
00:34:23Don't worry.
00:34:24Irene is the truly
00:34:25gifted one in Cade.
00:34:26She's far more capable
00:34:27than you ever were.
00:34:28Third,
00:34:30never trust the
00:34:30orc empire.
00:34:32Gromash and his
00:34:33court are brutal
00:34:33by nature.
00:34:34Never lower your guard
00:34:35around them.
00:34:37Finished,
00:34:38that's all.
00:34:39Nothing new
00:34:39to rule the kingdom.
00:34:41Don't underestimate
00:34:42these three rules.
00:34:43If you can truly
00:34:44follow them,
00:34:46Cade will be in peace
00:34:47for a hundred years.
00:34:49Hera,
00:34:49stop pretending
00:34:50to be so loyal.
00:34:51You disgust me.
00:34:52Every word I said
00:34:53came from my heart.
00:34:54Listen carefully!
00:34:55This kingdom won't
00:34:56stop without you.
00:34:57No, Cade will even
00:34:58become stronger than before.
00:34:59That's good.
00:35:00May Cade kingdom
00:35:01prosper,
00:35:02and may my king
00:35:02be safe and well.
00:35:04Then we shall see.
00:35:07Guards!
00:35:08Escort Cade away
00:35:09and treat his injuries
00:35:10immediately.
00:35:11Yes,
00:35:11your majesty.
00:35:35Why are you here?
00:35:37The moment you left,
00:35:38all three of us
00:35:40were stripped
00:35:40of military command.
00:35:42We refused
00:35:43to continue
00:35:44serving that
00:35:44damned king.
00:35:45We suffered
00:35:46endless humiliation
00:35:47in the royal court.
00:35:49We would rather
00:35:49follow you,
00:35:50even if it means
00:35:51doing the roughest labor.
00:35:52Lady Hera,
00:35:53please don't leave.
00:35:55Cade cannot survive
00:35:56without you.
00:35:57You gave everything
00:35:58for Cade.
00:35:59We can't let you
00:36:00leave like this.
00:36:01Everything is settled.
00:36:02I have nothing
00:36:03left to stay for.
00:36:04I only wish
00:36:05to lay down my burdens
00:36:06and live a few
00:36:07peaceful years.
00:36:07During your years
00:36:08in power,
00:36:09you did so much
00:36:10for us.
00:36:11Now traitorous
00:36:12dimensions drive away
00:36:14a loyal hero.
00:36:15We refuse
00:36:16to accept it.
00:36:18The royal court
00:36:19has wronged
00:36:20its greatest protector.
00:36:22That's right!
00:36:23All gatherings
00:36:24must come to an end
00:36:25someday.
00:36:26Everyone,
00:36:27please go home.
00:36:28Don't make things
00:36:29harder for Hera.
00:36:34may your road ahead
00:36:36be safe,
00:36:37my lady.
00:36:38May the rest
00:36:39of your life
00:36:39be peaceful
00:36:40and stable.
00:36:52You saw it
00:36:53with your own eyes.
00:36:54The people of this land
00:36:56recognize only Hera
00:36:57in their hearts,
00:36:57not the royal family.
00:36:58I will accomplish
00:36:59great deeds
00:37:00for the world
00:37:01to see.
00:37:01I'll make Hera
00:37:02understand
00:37:03who truly
00:37:04deserves to rule
00:37:05Cade.
00:37:06Your majesty,
00:37:07I have a brilliant
00:37:07plan that will
00:37:08secure your throne
00:37:09quickly and elevate
00:37:10your prestige
00:37:10far above Hera's.
00:37:12Speak!
00:37:12What plan?
00:37:14Though Hera
00:37:15is gone,
00:37:15her influence
00:37:16within the court
00:37:17still remains.
00:37:18Your majesty
00:37:19should dismiss
00:37:20every official
00:37:20connected to her
00:37:21and replace them
00:37:22all with people
00:37:23loyal only to you.
00:37:24And you must win
00:37:25over the nobles
00:37:25and ministers
00:37:26by increasing
00:37:26their salaries
00:37:27and privileges.
00:37:28Only when those
00:37:29in power benefit
00:37:30from your rule
00:37:30will they truly
00:37:31devote themselves
00:37:32to you.
00:37:33Only then
00:37:33will Cade
00:37:34truly belong to you.
00:37:36But the royal treasury
00:37:37has long been emptied.
00:37:39We simply don't have
00:37:40the money
00:37:41for increased rewards.
00:37:43Then raise
00:37:44the taxes.
00:37:46But before Hera
00:37:47left,
00:37:47she repeatedly warned me
00:37:48never to raise taxes.
00:37:50Keep the people
00:37:50to live peacefully.
00:37:51You are mistaken.
00:37:53To secure royal authority,
00:37:54you must first secure
00:37:55the loyalty of those
00:37:56who hold power around you.
00:37:58Only when officials
00:37:58profit from your rule
00:37:59will they truly obey you.
00:38:01Hera wasn't protecting
00:38:02the people
00:38:03by opposing higher taxes.
00:38:05She was deliberately
00:38:06holding you back
00:38:07so you could never
00:38:07truly secure your throne.
00:38:09You mustn't fall
00:38:10for her tricks.
00:38:12What a scheming woman.
00:38:14Even after leaving,
00:38:15she's still plotting
00:38:15against me.
00:38:17As you said,
00:38:19deliver my order
00:38:20at once.
00:38:21Raise the taxes.
00:38:24Your Majesty,
00:38:26as Minister of Agriculture,
00:38:28I present three treasures.
00:38:30Superior wheat seeds,
00:38:31fertile soil fertilizer,
00:38:33and gilded farming sepuls.
00:38:34May Cade enjoy
00:38:35endless harvests,
00:38:37overflowing granaries,
00:38:38and freedom from famine
00:38:39forever.
00:38:40Excellent.
00:38:41Truly excellent.
00:38:42Cade is fortunate
00:38:43to have such a devoted
00:38:44official as you.
00:38:45I oversee the kingdom's
00:38:46military affairs
00:38:47and offer the Blacksteel
00:38:49command seal,
00:38:50the Lionheart battle armor,
00:38:51and the Hundred War bone.
00:38:53May Cade cavalry
00:38:54become invincible
00:38:55and all neighboring lands
00:38:56submit before us.
00:38:58Well done.
00:38:59That's Irene's brother.
00:39:00You've forged Cade army
00:39:02into such a powerful force.
00:39:04With you there,
00:39:05our borders will remain
00:39:06secure forever.
00:39:07I present the star crystal
00:39:09stepter,
00:39:10the deep sea pearl crown,
00:39:11and the holy light
00:39:12blessing scroll.
00:39:14May your majesty's glory
00:39:16shake the world,
00:39:17win the sincere loyalty
00:39:18of all people,
00:39:19and secure your
00:39:20supreme royal authority
00:39:22forever.
00:39:23Long live King Moses.
00:39:26May Cade resign forever.
00:39:29Ever since Irene began
00:39:30assisting me
00:39:31in governing the kingdom,
00:39:33Cade has grown stronger
00:39:34every time.
00:39:35The people live peacefully,
00:39:37and the court stands united.
00:39:39This is true prosperity.
00:39:49The entire kingdom
00:39:50celebrates today,
00:39:52and every minister
00:39:53offers congratulations.
00:39:55Why are you sitting there
00:39:56in silence,
00:39:57without the slightest smile?
00:40:03Congratulations,
00:40:04your majesty.
00:40:05Are you still unwilling
00:40:06to accept it,
00:40:07thinking that without Hera,
00:40:09Cade could never
00:40:10maintain its essence glory?
00:40:12I didn't think so,
00:40:13let's stop talking this.
00:40:15Even if Hera
00:40:16possessed some ability,
00:40:17how could she possibly
00:40:18compare to Irene's
00:40:19wisdom and strategy?
00:40:21Your majesty,
00:40:22enough!
00:40:23You still side with her
00:40:25in your heart!
00:40:26I would truly like
00:40:27to see Hera's expression
00:40:28when she realizes
00:40:29Cade remains prosperous
00:40:31even without her.
00:40:31Prosperous?
00:40:32The taxes are crushing
00:40:34the people until they
00:40:34can barely breathe.
00:40:35Citizens are displaced,
00:40:37suffering miserably everywhere.
00:40:39And you call this
00:40:39prosperous?
00:40:47The taxes are due!
00:40:48How dare you lay payment?
00:40:50If you still refuse
00:40:51spare money to pay,
00:40:52I'll whip you to death!
00:40:53Sir,
00:40:54this year's harvest
00:40:55completely failed.
00:40:57The taxes are far too heavy,
00:40:58we truly can't afford to pay.
00:41:00You have no choice!
00:41:01This is the king's command!
00:41:03Anyone who resists taxation
00:41:05will be executed
00:41:06on the spot!
00:41:07How dare you speak
00:41:09such nonsense here!
00:41:11Cade is peaceful
00:41:12and prosperous today
00:41:13entirely because
00:41:13of his majesty.
00:41:15Raising taxes slightly
00:41:16is what made this
00:41:17grand banquet
00:41:18and this stability possible.
00:41:19What is wrong with that?
00:41:21Before Hera left,
00:41:22she repeatedly warned
00:41:24that taxes must never
00:41:25be raised.
00:41:26The people needed
00:41:27time to recover.
00:41:28You promised her that.
00:41:31Shut up!
00:41:32Hera has no right
00:41:33to lecture me
00:41:34on how to govern
00:41:35my kingdom!
00:41:35If you refuse to listen
00:41:37to honest counsel
00:41:37and remain this stubborn,
00:41:39then I have nothing
00:41:40left to say.
00:41:41Insolence!
00:41:42Since you despise
00:41:43everything here so much,
00:41:44then get out!
00:41:45Go to the far north
00:41:47and never back again!
00:41:48Your majesty,
00:41:49please don't!
00:41:50The far north borders
00:41:52the orc territories.
00:41:53If Prince Cain goes there,
00:41:55he will certainly die!
00:41:57How is that possible?
00:41:58Aren't Blackstone City
00:42:00and Frostwave City
00:42:00still standing between them?
00:42:02Those two cities
00:42:03have already...
00:42:05Already what?
00:42:07Speak!
00:42:07They have already been
00:42:08ceded by Lady Irene
00:42:09to the orc empire
00:42:11of the Gromish royal court.
00:42:13Your majesty,
00:42:14those two cities
00:42:14were nothing but
00:42:15barren wastelands.
00:42:16I made the decision
00:42:17to precede them
00:42:17in exchange for peace
00:42:18along the borders.
00:42:19They're only two
00:42:20worthless cities.
00:42:21Then that's it,
00:42:22not a great deal.
00:42:31This little beauty
00:42:33looks good!
00:42:34Take her with us!
00:42:37Let me go!
00:42:38Let me go!
00:42:42You beast!
00:42:43Let go of my daughter!
00:42:50With the king
00:42:51being this foolish,
00:42:52Cade will fall.
00:42:54Apologize to me now
00:42:55and I'll let you stay
00:42:56in the royal city.
00:42:58Spare you from suffering
00:42:59in the far north.
00:43:00There's no need.
00:43:02I'll leave at once.
00:43:03You would rather die
00:43:04than remain by my side?
00:43:06Yes.
00:43:07There is no hope left here.
00:43:09My heart has long since died.
00:43:11I'm leaving now.
00:43:12I'm leaving now.
00:43:15Report!
00:43:16A devastating locust
00:43:17playing has erupted
00:43:18in Gale Wind City.
00:43:19The crops have all been

00:48:44the only thing i'm worried about is
00:48:46what's that
00:48:46morlock of the north
00:48:48he's fierce and hot-tempered
00:48:49he can't be threatened or if he's pushed too far he'll rebel for sure
00:48:53and once that happens kade will be facing enemies inside and outside the kingdom
00:48:57there will be no saving it then
00:48:59moses can't be that foolish
00:49:00he already made one mistake raising taxes

00:49:06your majesty
00:49:07general morlock of the north is outside requesting an immediate audience

00:49:27your majesty please don't the treasury's already empty

00:49:33morlock's nothing more than a surrender general
00:49:35he doesn't deserve the honors
00:49:37some ordinary food is more than enough
00:49:39and he's obviously here to beg for tax relief for the people
00:49:43but we can't lower taxes anymore
00:49:47leave this to me your majesty
00:49:49i'll put him in his place myself
00:49:52but hara warned me to treat him with respect

00:50:26get up and speak
00:50:29thank you your majesty
00:50:30you've traveled a long way here
00:50:32must be exhausted
00:50:33the journey means nothing
00:50:35but today in front of both you and the grand marshal
00:50:38i need an answer
00:50:39huh
00:50:40go on
00:50:41when grand marshal hara united the northern tribes
00:50:44she made a promise before every soldier and citizen
00:50:47that the north would be exempt from taxes for five years
00:50:50and if disaster or war ever struck
00:50:53the royal treasury would provide relief for the people immediately
00:50:57but what happened
00:51:00not only have you sent us nothing
00:51:02you broke the agreement yourselves

00:54:44this camp barely has supplies
00:54:46if i had proper ingredients
00:54:47i could make you a real feast
00:54:49this is already more than enough
00:54:50thank you my dear kane
00:54:53my lady
00:54:54urgent military report
00:54:56urgent situation
00:55:01what happened
00:55:02our scouts
00:55:04confirmed
00:55:04that moravac openly
00:55:06turned against king moses and irene in the royal council hall
00:55:09the confrontation nearly exploded into blood shred
00:55:12god morlack's temper is terrifying
00:55:13the openly challenging the royal family
00:55:15could completely cause the chaos
00:55:18morlack entered the capital with a handful of twisted men
00:55:21if moses had executed him on the spot to stop him returning north
00:55:24this rebellion could still have been prevented
00:55:26but the king chose to save irene instead
00:55:28he ordered the guards to stand down and allowed morack to leave for the north safely
00:55:34no that's bad
00:55:36a lot of innocent people are gonna die now
00:55:42you ungrateful traitor
00:55:43the king spared your life out of mercy because of your past service
00:55:47and this is how you repay him
00:55:48the second you return north you gather an army and openly rebel against the crown
00:55:52that's treason
00:55:53so you're irene's loser brother
00:55:55makes sense
00:55:56as arrogant and useless as she is

00:56:02then open your damn eyes and look around
00:56:04our walls are unbreakable
00:56:06our food supplies are full and our soldiers are elite fighters

00:58:49i swear on my life
00:58:51i'll devote everything to you forever
00:58:54never betray you
00:58:58you swore to me that morak was nothing more than a broken
00:59:01defeated general
00:59:02you said he had no courage left
00:59:05your majesty
00:59:07please calm down and think carefully about this
00:59:09it's weird
00:59:10morlock kept mentioning Hera over and over again
00:59:13if you ask me
00:59:14Hera must be the real mastermind behind all of this
00:59:16no
00:59:18is it truly Hera's secretly plotting against me
00:59:20think about it your majesty
00:59:22she once controlled the entire kingdom's military power
00:59:25stood above everyone
00:59:26after being stripped of everything and exiled
00:59:28how could she possibly accept that
00:59:29that's why she manipulated morlock into storming the palace
00:59:32it seems like i was the target
00:59:34but in reality
00:59:35she's humiliating the royal and attacking your authority
00:59:38and shaking your throne step by step
00:59:40damn her
00:59:42she can't defeat me openly
00:59:44so now she hides and plays dirty
00:59:46letting her followers create chaos
00:59:48humiliating me
00:59:49provoking the entire kingdom of kata
00:59:51everyone knows Hera's good at winning people over
00:59:54she tricks soldiers and silizans with fake kindness and pretty words
00:59:57we absolutely cannot fall for her lies
01:00:00must crush her scheme before it's too late
01:00:02but it's already too late
01:00:03i let morlock go to save you
01:00:05giving him chance to rally all his forces and march south
01:00:08how are we supposed to stop this war
01:00:10don't panic your majesty
01:00:11i've already prepared for this
01:00:13my brother fulton is guarding stonehold city
01:00:15the only path from the north to the capital
01:00:17its defenses are impenetrable
01:00:19and the surprise are abundant
01:00:20as long as stonehold stands
01:00:22morick will never reach the capital city
01:00:24and my brother's a battle heart in general
01:00:26morlock may be strong
01:00:28but he's just a brute
01:00:30there's no way he can break through the defenses
01:00:33you can rest easy your majesty
01:00:37your majesty
01:00:38terrible news from the front lines
01:00:40morack's army has completely captured stonehold city
01:00:44general fulton had his neck crushed by morack
01:00:53no
01:00:54that's impossible
01:00:55my brothers fought in countless battles
01:00:57stonehold city was supposed to be imprezzable
01:00:59how could it fall so fast
01:01:01how could he die
01:01:03enough irene
01:01:04all your grand lies have mislaid the court
01:01:06and ruined the kingdom's plans
01:01:08now morlock's army has broken through the north
01:01:10and is marching straight for the capital
01:01:13tell me
01:01:13at this point
01:01:14is there even a way to turn this around
01:01:19your majesty
01:01:21please calm your anger
01:01:22i have one final plan
01:01:26that can save the kingdom from destruction
01:01:28then spit it out
01:01:29now
01:01:30the soldiers in capital are too weak
01:01:32to stop morlock's hundred thousand elite riders
01:01:34the only option
01:01:36is to send envoys to the orkin empire
01:01:39offer them whatever they want
01:01:41in exchange for their forces
01:01:42to crush this rebellion
01:01:44absolutely not
01:01:45i will never agree to something this insane
01:01:48your majesty
01:01:49remember my final warning
01:01:51never forget it
01:01:54the orcs are savage by nature
01:01:56bloodthirsty and ambitious
01:01:58they've always coveted the rich lands of cade
01:02:01they can never be trusted
01:02:02i have never forgotten hera's warning
01:02:05the orcs are greedy wolves
01:02:07allying with them would be suicidal
01:02:09it could destroy cade
01:02:13your majesty
01:02:14this is no time to hesitate
01:02:15morlock's army is launching straight for us
01:02:17he wants your throne
01:02:18the orcs only want gold
01:02:20food
01:02:20and a small piece of border territory
01:02:22if paying that price protects your crown
01:02:24and saves all our lives
01:02:25it's more than worth it
01:02:28fine
01:02:28we've almost reached the dead end
01:02:30there's no other choice now
01:02:31i'll take the risk
01:02:32rest easy your majesty
01:02:34i'll send trusted envoys to the orc empire tonight
01:02:36to secure the alliance
01:02:37and get their army as fast as possible
01:02:54marshal hera
01:02:55the undefeated goddess of war
01:02:57you're finally here
01:02:58i've waited day and night for this moment
01:03:00you have no idea how those snakes in the royal court slandered you
01:03:04humiliated you and trampled all over your loyalty in front of the entire palace
01:03:07i'm clear with everything
01:03:08you've carried too much anger and injustice these past months
01:03:12king's blind and irene controls the court
01:03:14i understand exactly what's going on
01:03:16but we're warriors to protect the people
01:03:19no matter what happens
01:03:20we cannot start a war lightly
01:03:22now i need you to order the army to withdraw north
01:03:25show the kingdom our sincerity
01:03:26i'll personally return to the capital and negotiate with the king one last time
01:03:30if he still insists on dragging the kingdom deeper into ruin
01:03:33we'll march and take back justice for everyone
01:03:37marshal hera
01:03:38i don't want my soldiers dying meaninglessly either
01:03:41i'll follow every order you give without question
01:03:46my ministers
01:03:48morlick has completely taken stonehold city
01:03:51his rebel army could arrive at the capital any moment now
01:03:54so does anyone here have a plan to save this kingdom
01:03:57amazing you talk endlessly like genius every day
01:04:01but now that the kingdom's collapsing suddenly everyone's silent
01:04:04where is my royal guard
01:04:06why is there not even one soldier here to protect me
01:04:09your majesty
01:04:10the royal family has already lost the people's support completely
01:04:14disasters spread across the kingdom
01:04:16but the court failed to help the citizens
01:04:18then taxes kept rising again and again
01:04:20the people's anger has reached its limit
01:04:22at this point the royal guard exists in name alone
01:04:27the orcs are probably still days away
01:04:29there's no army and no general left in the capital
01:04:32if morlack attacks now
01:04:33my throne
01:04:34my life
01:04:35my everything are gone
01:04:38urgent military report your majesty
01:04:40speak
01:04:41what happened
01:04:42morlack's hundred thousand man army
01:04:44has completely withdrawn
01:04:46what
01:04:47they retreated
01:04:48why would they suddenly pull back without reasons
01:04:51i couldn't uncover the reason your majesty
01:04:53but i personally saw the entire army break camp
01:04:56and retreat over a hundred miles north
01:05:01your majesty
01:05:04isn't the answer obvious
01:05:06my strategy worked perfectly
01:05:09just the threat of my preparations alone
01:05:11terrified morick so badly
01:05:13that he fled without even fighting
01:05:19then would you explain
01:05:20what strategy scared away
01:05:22a hundred thousand elite soldiers overnight
01:05:24i secretly sent trusted envoys
01:05:27to the orc emperor long ago
01:05:29the alliance has already been secured
01:05:32their elite reinforcements are on the way
01:05:34to the capital as we speak
01:05:35morlack must have learned about it
01:05:37and realizes he could never defeat our combined forces
01:05:39so that's why
01:05:41irene's brilliant strategy
01:05:43intimidated the rebels
01:05:44and forced back a hundred thousand enemy troops
01:05:47without sacrificing a single soldier from the capital
01:05:50irene
01:05:51you are the kingdom's greatest killer
01:05:53my most trusted minister
01:05:55your majesty
01:05:55please reconsider
01:05:56you cannot make this mistake
01:05:58it's killing ourselves
01:05:59they are long coveting our lands
01:06:01even the late king personally led the campaign against them
01:06:03and died on the battlefield
01:06:04that blood feed hasn't been settled
01:06:06how can you bow your head to our greatest enemy
01:06:08and invite them into our kingdom
01:06:10you're condemning cave to destruction with your own hands
01:06:13your majesty
01:06:13think carefully
01:06:15the orcs are cruel by nature
01:06:17once they cross our borders
01:06:18every town in their path will be burnt and looted
01:06:21countless innocent civilians will be slaughtered
01:06:24the people of cave will be dragged straight into hell
