Short filmTranscript
00:00:04As my husband, I've lost count of how many times Sassi has paraded his ally right in front of me.
00:00:11Of course, tonight is an exception.
00:00:15He thinks I'm visiting relatives in the country.
00:00:18He hasn't the faintest idea.
00:00:21Little does he know, this is where my revenge begins.
00:00:26Parasites.
00:00:30Since everyone's wearing a mask, no one knows who's who.
00:00:42So if you can mess about right in front of me,
00:00:48why shouldn't I do the same?
00:00:57That woman's back. Looks awfully familiar.
00:01:04Stay the night with me.
00:01:06What do you say?
00:01:08I'm just an ally, my lady.
00:01:09Well, why let rank spoil the fun?
00:01:15A noblewoman luring to be with these kind of trash.
00:01:19Are you quite sure you can handle the consequences?
00:01:48What do you say?
00:01:51I'll be right back.
00:01:51I'll be right back.
00:01:51I'm actually pregnant.
00:01:56That man certainly knew how to put on a show.
00:01:59As long as Scar believes this child is his,
00:02:02everything my grandfather left me will eventually be mine again.
00:02:06My lady, I've come to change your bedding and your rag.
00:02:10Why now, of all times?
00:02:12Just a moment!
00:02:15Scar hasn't touched me in six months.
00:02:17Before I announce the pregnancy, I need him to sleep with me one more time.
00:02:21Melris! The carriage is waiting!
00:02:24If we're late for the victory banquet, the blame falls on you!
00:02:30You're getting completely out of hand.
00:02:32What the devil are you doing in here?
00:02:37Sneaking around. What are you up to?
00:02:41Nothing.
00:02:42Why are your hands behind your back?
00:02:44You're standing on it.
00:02:47Throwing your filthy rags on the floor like this?
00:02:50Disgusting!
00:02:54Forgive me, my lord.
00:02:55I was just about to tidy the room and change her ladyship's rags.
00:02:58Wait outside.
00:02:59I'll get dressed and be right out.
00:03:00Hurry it up.
00:03:12Feed me another one.
00:03:19My lord.
00:03:20I prefer the curtains drawn.
00:03:23If you cared so much about appearances, you shouldn't have brought her into the carriage.
00:03:27Haha.
00:03:28Tonight is a banquet hosted by His Majesty himself for my cousin, Eric.
00:03:32If you hadn't married me, a merchant's daughter like you would never set foot in the royal palace your entire
00:03:38life.
00:03:38Exactly.
00:03:40I'd defeat for a chance to go inside.
00:03:42You've no right to complain.
00:03:43If it weren't for my merchant fortune, you wouldn't even be able to afford this carriage.
00:03:48You'd have to go roll around in the dirt.
00:03:51I never want to hear you say that again.
00:03:53Don't forget.
00:03:54The deeds and shops your grandfather left behind all belong to me now.
00:04:01Let me help you cool off, my lord.
00:04:04Grandfather must have been blind to leave everything in his hands.
00:04:07Don't give me that look.
00:04:09As long as we play the happy couple, my cousin will think I'm a respectable man.
00:04:15And the northern ration contracts will stay in my hands.
00:04:33General.
00:04:35His Majesty has sent word.
00:04:36The banquet is about to begin.
00:04:38The time of controlling the illusions is getting shorter.
00:04:41Still not found that woman?
00:04:43There were too many people that night.
00:04:44We're still screening them.
00:04:46After that night, the hallucinations stopped for two whole days.
00:04:52And it was only with her.
00:04:54Keep digging.
00:04:59Be a good girl and wait in the carriage.
00:05:01I'll be back right after the banquet.
00:05:05My lady, after you.
00:05:11Is that Vatret Skr's wife?
00:05:13I heard she's a merchant's daughter.
00:05:15No wonder she lacks class.
00:05:18Look at you.
00:05:20Go and beg Lilith to swap dresses with you.
00:05:22Stop embarrassing me here.
00:05:27Count Horne, it's been too long.
00:05:30Looking as dashering as ever, I see.
00:05:39I'd rather be thrown out than beg her for anything.
00:05:43My apologies, my lady, but we cannot allow you inside dressed like that.
00:05:48I know.
00:05:48That's why I need to borrow your sword for a moment.
00:05:50Please don't make a scene here, ma'am.
00:05:53I... I just...
00:05:56Use mine.
00:06:05It's the man from the masquerade!
00:06:08General, sir!
00:06:10The general?
00:06:11Soska's cousin is him?
00:06:13If you keep, my lady, you'll be late for the banquet.
00:06:17Thank you, General.
00:06:25Actually looks better than before.
00:06:29You flatter me, General. Just a quick fix.
00:06:32I'll see you inside.
00:06:41That woman...
00:06:42Why does she feel so familiar?
00:07:02Erik Hohenheim.
00:07:04The Empire will forever remember your triumphs in the North.
00:07:08My life for the Empire.
00:07:10He looks as though he's in pain.
00:07:13Rumor has it he'd defeat people just for fun since he's been back.
00:07:18You always take matters into your own hands.
00:07:20Stay away from me whilst I make my rounds tonight.
00:07:22I don't want people thinking I married a tailor's daughter.
00:07:29Perhaps he's not what the rumors say.
00:07:32A toast to you, General.
00:07:37It's getting worse.
00:07:40No.
00:07:41I need to find Edward.
00:07:42See if they've brought any spare prisoners.
00:07:46Cousin!
00:07:47The party's just starting.
00:07:49What's the rush?
00:07:51What is it?
00:07:51Oh.
00:07:53Nothing much.
00:07:53Just notice the requisition orders for the border rations have paused lately.
00:07:57The North is secure, sure, but our garrisons out there eat through supplies fast.
00:08:01We can't let the transport stop.
00:08:02To save the front line some coin, I've been keeping prices rock bottom for years.
00:08:07I hardly make a dime.
00:08:12So...
00:08:12Regarding the...
00:08:15Ration contract.
00:08:19Shut up!
00:08:21Cousin?
00:08:22Rations were always tight whilst I was on the front.
00:08:25We only secured the area a month ago.
00:08:26Yet when I dressed as an ally and slipped into your estate, your little masquerade was quite the lavish affair.
00:08:32General!
00:08:33I believe you are mistaken.
00:08:37The heavy snows blocked the northern passes.
00:08:40Many merchant guilds refused to go near the border even if it meant taking a loss.
00:08:45Scar hosted that ball simply to plesivate the gang leaders.
00:08:48Yes!
00:08:49Yes, exactly!
00:08:49All for the Empire!
00:08:51You're defending him.
00:08:53Just stating the facts.
00:08:55And what are you to him?
00:08:57His wife.
00:08:58So was the lady of the house present at the masquerade that night.
00:09:08You misunderstand me, General.
00:09:10I'm merely speaking up for my husband.
00:09:12As for the masquerade, I wasn't there.
00:09:13I was visiting my aunt in the country.
00:09:15So you're not worried about your husband fooling around behind your back?
00:09:19You cut off his contracts and publicly challenge him over a single party.
00:09:23Are you going to interrogate our marriage now too?
00:09:26No!
00:09:28No!
00:09:28No!
00:09:34No!
00:09:38No!
00:09:40I want a new logistics plan on my desk in two days, if it's the same garbage as before.
00:09:46Then you're done with the Northern Contracts. Forever.
00:09:49Yes, yes, of course. I'll redraw everything.
00:10:00A stroke of luck, actually.
00:10:02There's no way Scar can come up with a new plan, if I use this to make him sleep with
00:10:06me again.
00:10:07Then you can stay, loud and clear.
00:10:14Good thing you had one on standby.
00:10:21General, please let me go. I'm just a foot soldier. I was following orders.
00:10:27My girl is waiting for me back home. Please, no, please!
00:10:35Crimson Raven.
00:10:40General, why haven't you found the woman from the Masquerade yet?
00:10:46Do we even have prisoners left to kill?
00:10:48He's been looking for me since that night.
00:10:51Quite sure you can handle the consequences.
00:10:56Who's there?
00:11:06Crimson Raven. Why haven't you found her yet? Are you quite sure you can handle the consequences?
00:11:14What the hell is wrong with you?
00:11:19Cold-blooded monster. He actually thinks he's some hero of the Empire.
00:11:23Don't be angry, my lord. Have some wine.
00:11:28Cold-blooded monster.
00:11:30I'm feeling this juvenile.
00:11:32If he finds out how Eamon Houston boots him, he'll tear me to pieces.
00:11:36More, the plan of control can start.
00:11:44women who come to my door usually fall into one of two categories those who want to get
00:11:48pregnant with someone else's child and those who want to get rid of their own which one are you
00:11:54the latter i'm out of a few herbs i need to go fetch them
00:12:09there's a gentleman in the back room who claims he's being haunted by the dead
00:12:12if you hear him ring the bell do me a favor and toss some of this incense into the burner
00:12:16for him
00:12:24let go what are you doing
00:12:29what is scar's wife doing in a place like this
00:12:37with someone else's child and those who want to get rid of their own
00:12:41those who want to get nervous surely the general doesn't think i'm the latter i hear you and scar
00:12:47have only been married for three months in such a rush to have a baby you're awfully invested in
00:12:52other people's private matters general get out

00:13:49if the man inside asked what i was doing here tell him the exact opposite

00:14:25what do you know
00:14:27i refuse to end up like my father
00:14:29eating through his fortune till nothing was left but the title of a broke nobleman
00:14:41but i suppose you have a point what's the harm in selling one or two

00:27:40general

00:28:21there's even a family crest engraved inside the earring
00:28:25so that's why he came back to the castle looking for me
00:28:31how did you come by these
00:28:32our grandfather had a pair of pearl earrings custom made for every girl in the valentine family
00:28:38my cousin likely has a pair very similar to mine
00:28:40but not quite the same
00:28:42where were you a month ago
00:28:43i had gone to visit my cousin that day
00:28:44but as it turned out she happened to be away at her mother's
00:28:46when i arrived i saw the castle was hosting a masquerade ball and i was curious
00:28:49i heard you've been searching for the person from that
00:28:51so i finally worked up the courage to come to you
00:28:53i know this is hardly proper but i
00:28:56i simply couldn't forget you
00:28:58how can she spew such nauseating lies without a shred of shame
00:29:03lady melris
00:29:04is what she said true
00:29:12lady melris
00:29:14is what she said true
00:29:22yes
00:29:24everything adele said is true
00:29:29general
00:29:30you believe me now don't you
00:29:36edward
00:29:37sir
00:29:38escort lady adele out
00:29:40prepare a generous gift
00:29:42to thank her for her candid
00:29:43what
00:29:44general
00:29:45aren't we going to
00:29:46talk a little longer
00:29:59lord eric
00:30:00thank you for saving me yesterday
00:30:04i'll take my leave now
00:30:06i also hope the general can keep what happened last night to himself
00:30:09wait
00:30:09i saved you only because i have no interest in seeing my business partner come to harm
00:30:16business partner
00:30:18when did i ever agree to that
00:30:19the north cannot go a single day without grain shipments
00:30:22scar is worse than useless
00:30:23i was counting on you from the start
00:30:25are you really going to turn me down
00:30:27take it
00:30:28come work for me
00:30:30and i can offer you compensation beyond anything you'd imagine
00:30:34no
00:30:35if i stay by his side my belly will grow day by day
00:30:37he'll find out about the pregnancy sooner or later
00:30:38this madman will never let me go
00:30:40i appreciate the offer my lord but i must declare the proposal is already in your hands
00:30:43i'm sure finding someone capable of understanding it won't be difficult
00:30:45i told you i have the power to help you reclaim every last piece of your grandfather's estate
00:30:48won't you at least can consider
00:30:49perhaps you're not aware but that full scar could never hold on to an estate of that size
00:30:54even the royal family has their eyes on that prize now
00:30:57what do you think
00:30:58will scar fight to the death to keep it or will he trade your grandfather's legacy for a title
00:31:02and a promotion
00:31:08have you made up your mind
00:31:10if what he says is true
00:31:12time is running out
00:31:13i have to take this gamble
00:31:15but he can never ever find out about the child
00:31:17i have two conditions
00:31:19name them
00:31:20first i'll serve as your advisor for two months with full authority over the northern trade routes
00:31:23after two months whether i succeed or fail
00:31:26you will honor your promise and help me reclaim my entire inheritance
00:31:28fine
00:31:30and the second
00:31:32i
00:31:34i'd like to receive part of my payment in advance to purchase a residence
00:31:37because of scar
00:31:39you've seen it yourself
00:31:40that scum would do anything for money
00:31:42i need somewhere safe
00:31:45scar and his mistress have already been thrown into the dungeon on suspicion of treason and collying with the enemy
00:31:50you when did you
00:31:51while you were unconscious
00:31:52and i've also had edward replace every last guard at your castle
00:31:56he had everything set in motion long before i woke up
00:31:59step by step he's been backing me into a corner
00:32:01what a ruthless calculating bastard
00:32:05you have my gratitude general for all the trouble you've gone to
00:32:11melris
00:32:12just how long do you think you can keep running from me
00:32:20melris
00:32:20what were you doing coming out of general eric's estate today
00:32:23and wearing his shirt no less
00:32:25am i required to report my whereabouts to you
00:32:27you don't have to report anything to me
00:32:28but you're a married woman spending the night in another man's house
00:32:31have you no shame
00:32:32aren't you worried about dragging the valentine name through the mud
00:32:34general eric is scar's cousin
00:32:36i call him my brother-in-law
00:32:37what's wrong with visiting family
00:32:38forget it i didn't come here to argue
00:32:39i just wanted to remind you
00:32:40you're already married
00:32:41so the woman general eric has been searching for all across the city can only be me
00:32:45after all you didn't come to my house that night did you
00:32:47i trust you know exactly what to my dear cousin
00:32:48i know you envy me
00:32:49being the woman who'll soon be at general eric's side
00:32:52not like you
00:32:53your mother died young
00:32:54and if grandfather hadn't gone seen me
00:32:56and left you a scrap of the estate
00:32:57even scar would have been out of your league
00:32:59so now that i've got something on you
00:33:00you better fall in line
00:33:02you dare hit me
00:33:03i'll help you
00:33:04but insulting grandfather that you deserved
00:33:07and one more thing
00:33:08my parents may have died young
00:33:10but they did teach me one lesson
00:33:12do not provoke me
00:33:13and i will not provoke you
00:33:14but if you do provoke me
00:33:16i will return it a hundredfold
00:33:19starting tomorrow
00:33:20i'll use my knee injury as an excuse
00:33:22i'll tell eric i can't travel
00:33:23so he'll have to come here for our discussions
00:33:27when that happens
00:33:28you can seize the opportunity yourself
00:33:31since when are you so generous
00:33:32i need someone to distract him
00:33:34you need a chance to get close to him
00:33:36and we each get what we want
00:33:38you'd better mean what you say
00:33:41your vanity dear cousin
00:33:43has just done me an enormous favor
00:33:52two months
00:33:53the northern route must be solid
00:33:55how much does your garrison need for spring
00:33:58it's still winter
00:33:59why ask that now
00:34:01to be prepared
00:34:02spring floods are coming
00:34:05every foot the river rises
00:34:06the supply boats draw one less foot
00:34:09one delay
00:34:10and the northern forts go hungry for three days
00:34:14why are you here
00:34:15my cousin asked me to stay
00:34:17so i did
00:34:19i heard you talking about supplies
00:34:21grandfather taught me a thing or two
00:34:23hope you don't mind
00:34:24if you have something useful to say
00:34:26say it
00:34:29then i'll be bold
00:34:30about the northern route
00:34:31there are only three routes
00:34:33she stayed up all night
00:34:34memorizing my plan
00:34:35word for word
00:34:36but is he really that attractive
00:34:38road is safest
00:34:39but the terrain is rough
00:34:40so the caravans can load
00:34:42at the eastern waterway
00:34:43that way
00:34:44the relay stations won't be overwhelmed
00:34:50just some thoughts general
00:34:52don't laugh at me
00:34:56seems the valiant family
00:34:57has more than one business woman
00:35:00you're too kind general
00:35:01i just read a few books
00:35:03nothing like my cousin
00:35:06lady melris
00:35:11did you arrange lady adele for me
00:35:13as a surprise
00:35:18of course not
00:35:19general don't joke like that
00:35:28just joking
00:35:29no offense lady adele
00:35:39but you named three routes
00:35:41greyport's got salt inspections
00:35:43eastern waterways risky in spring floods
00:35:45northern road has bandits
00:35:47if you had to pick one
00:35:48which is safest
00:35:51that sounds simple
00:35:52but it's not
00:35:53weather
00:35:55manpower
00:35:55military schedules
00:35:57i haven't figured it out yet
00:36:02use all three general
00:36:03spread the risk
00:36:04if one fails
00:36:05the others keep the supply going
00:36:08three routes
00:36:09cost three times the money
00:36:10if the empire
00:36:11just wanted to buy safety
00:36:12why hire merchants
00:36:14just print more coin
00:36:16business is like war
00:36:18memorizing tactics
00:36:19doesn't make you a general

00:38:47right
00:38:48greyport can't handle big wagons
00:38:50but it can take sealed crates and small boats
00:38:53eastern waterways risky in spring
00:38:56but light boats can make it
00:38:57northern road runs empty carriages and guards
00:39:01by the time anyone notices
00:39:02the grain's already on the north
00:39:04so we split everything into three
00:39:06send to silverberg first
00:39:08the enemy sees three fake roads
00:39:11but the real road
00:39:12they never see coming
00:39:15a diversion
00:39:16brilliant

00:40:55still shy
00:40:56who's shy
00:41:06who's shy
00:41:07have to admit
00:41:08this body
00:41:09those muscles
00:41:11it's deadly
00:41:18had enough
00:41:20what i
00:41:25your salve works
00:41:26itching's almost gone
00:41:28but your technique is terrible
00:41:33general
00:41:33the rash is definitely from stinging nettle
00:41:37but the coffee is clean
00:41:38no poison
00:41:40what
00:41:54general
00:41:55i've tested both cups carefully
00:41:57no poison
00:41:58whatsoever
00:41:59but the handle of
00:42:00this cup
00:42:02there's trace amounts of stinging nettle pulp
00:42:07general
00:42:07general you heard him
00:42:08no poison in the coffee
00:42:09i was just trying to be nice
00:42:10how could i possibly want to hurt you
00:42:12it must be the kitchen staff
00:42:13they handled wild vegetables without washing their hands
00:42:15then they touched the cups
00:42:17that's possible
00:42:17young nettle can be boiled and eaten
00:42:19some servants use it as cheap greens
00:42:21cousin
00:42:22this is your castle
00:42:23aren't you going to question your own servants
00:42:25if someone tried to poison the general
00:42:27that's a death sentence
00:42:35the pulp is dry by now
00:42:37no one saw her do it
00:42:39even if we investigate
00:42:40she'll blame the kitchen
00:42:42general the physician already said
00:42:43there's no poison
00:42:45you're not seriously hurt
00:42:46why don't we leave it here
00:42:47otherwise someone might use this
00:42:49to sow discord in the household
00:42:50cousin
00:42:52are you still accusing me
00:42:56just thinking out loud
00:42:57don't read too much into it cousin

00:43:49her servants must be the ones who did this
00:43:52we should question every single one of them
00:43:54shut your mouth adele
00:43:55if you want eric
00:43:57don't act like a fool in front of him
00:43:59know when to stop
00:44:00understand
00:44:03general i'm also here on the emperor's orders
00:44:05he's concerned
00:44:06you locked up vanland scar for treason
00:44:08but he's still a titled noble
00:44:10you didn't file any paperwork with the court
00:44:12that puts the emperor in a difficult position
00:44:14it's a delicate matter
00:44:15i am a witness
00:44:16the man who broke into my castle admitted scar sent him to assault me
00:44:19lady melris the emperor is sympathetic to your ordeal
00:44:22but one woman's testimony isn't enough to convict a vittart
00:44:25besides you're still husband and wife
00:44:26wouldn't it be more dignified to find a compromise
00:44:29no compromise
00:44:31lady melris the emperor's wish is
00:44:33you can tell the emperor this
00:44:35i may be a merchant's daughter but i won't be bullied
00:44:37if he wants me to drop this
00:44:38susker returns everything my grandfather left me
00:44:40and he divorces me
00:44:42that's
00:44:44i agree
00:44:51the valentine estate is tied to the northern supply route
00:44:54it's a matter of imperial security
00:44:56scar couldn't even protect his own wife
00:44:58how can he be trusted with such assets
00:45:00better put it in the right hands
00:45:01you too
00:45:02i'll convey your proposal to the emperor
00:45:05thank you duke
00:45:16melris you're a clever woman
00:45:17if you help adele marry general eric
00:45:19i'll put in a good word for you with the emperor
00:45:22you're very invested in your daughter's marriage duke
00:45:24the whole city knows eric is looking for the masked woman from that night
00:45:27my daughter claimed it was her
00:45:28the duke's honor is at stake
00:45:30so it doesn't matter who it really was
00:45:32it has to be adele
00:45:34i knew you'd understand
00:45:43after the duke left
00:45:45things were calm
00:45:46i put everything into the mortham supply plan

00:47:22you've opened the northern supply route
00:47:24in such a short time
00:47:25you flatter me my lord
00:47:27none of this would be possible

00:47:33merris
00:47:34uncle
00:47:35the general isn't here yet

00:47:45how does she have the nerve
00:47:49general

00:47:52aren't you going
00:47:53better to let it out here
00:47:55than lose control in front of everyone
00:48:02tonight i want every noble in the capital to see what melris is worth
00:48:06the northern supply plan plus the support of the aristocracy
00:48:08even if the emperor resists he'll have to let her take back what's hers
00:48:12general you've gone to great lengths for her
00:48:15she deserves it
00:48:16general eric is just so busy
00:48:18he insists on doing everything himself
00:48:20but he told me tonight's banquet

00:49:59so you sold me out to get your inheritance back
00:50:02yes
00:50:03if that's how you see it
00:50:05but do you really want the emperor to think you're a threat
00:50:08distrust you
00:50:09even turn against you
00:50:11then you'd lose everything
00:50:12just like me
