00:02By the will of Athens, Irene, wife of Leonidas, is honored for his virtue and devotion.
00:09She is hereby named Honorary Priestess of the City.
00:13Let the gods be our witness.
00:16Lady Irene, congratulations.
00:28Honor, help! Help!
00:47Sister, I...
00:50Don't call me sister!
00:52We threw our wreaths at the same time!
00:54Why did you get Leonidas while I was cursed with a beggar?
00:58That's not fair.
01:00No.
01:01That's not fair!
01:05All of this should have been mine!
01:08Why should you flourish while I rot?
01:12If only...
01:13If only it had been Leonidas who caught my wreath three years ago.
01:19This glory you crave...
01:21It's just a hollow shadow, Eris.
01:42If only I had another life, I'd give up all this fake glory.
02:09My lord!
02:11The whole city has heard. The noble sons of Athens are swarming below, desperate to catch our daughter's wheats and
02:21claim them as their brides.
02:23The house of Demetrius only weds the highborn. Throw your wreaths with care. Remember, the one who lands the better
02:31match will bring glory to this family.
02:34Don't fail me.
02:36I have returned to three years ago, to the very day of the wreath-throwing.
02:41My lady, it is time. The crowd is waiting.
02:49Irene, my dear sister, can I go first?
02:56In my past life, she insisted I throw first. Now she seizes the lead.
03:02I see. She has returned as well.
03:11Beautiful lady! Over here! Over here!
03:14Throw it to me!
03:17Throw it to me!
03:18Throw it to me!
03:21Beautiful lady! Over here!
03:25This time, I'm the one who will wed Lord Leonidas.
03:28He'll be mine!
03:38My God! Look! It's Lord Leonidas!
03:42He caught the wreath!
03:44He caught the wreath!
03:44It is him!
03:46Leonidas' family is divine-blooded.
03:48With his brother as the Archon of the Areparis, our family has risen to glory today!
03:53The gods are truly with us!
03:56In this life, I have mastered my fate.
03:59In three years, I'll be the High Priestess.
04:02Wealth, glory, and love, they're all mine!
04:05Eris, my sweet sister, you have schemed and struggled, only to land yourself in the fires of Hades.
04:21The Gods, the gods, the gods, the gods truly favour, Eris!
04:26She brings such glory to this house!
04:29It's all for the glory of our house.
04:33Wouldn't you agree, dear sister?
04:35Such great fortune, Eris. I couldn't be happier for you.
04:39Irene, your blessed life is mine now.
04:42In this life, you will never stand above me again.
04:45My lady, look. Lord Leonidas can't take his eyes off you.
05:04That man, it can't be.
05:10Mike. Lord Fodus, if Queen Leto finds you roaming the city in such a guise, she'll not be pleased.
05:18Mother will not rest till I wed a goddess. I have to escape.
05:22Since I'm here, I might as well see how these mortals live.
05:26My lord, I know we're blending in, but do we really have to look like beggars?
05:34The older the rags, the less attention we draw.
05:40You are right, my lord. But even in these rags, you still carry the majesty of a king.
05:45These mortals aren't even worthy to stand in your shadow.
05:48Hurry! The daughters of Demetrius are throwing laral hoots today!
05:52If we're late, we'll be stuck staring at the back of...
05:54What was that thing?
05:56Let's see what the mortals are up to.
06:04That filthy minster cost me everything in my past life.
06:08I'll not suffer the same fate again.
06:11It is your turn, sister.
06:13To be cast out and to rot in that very same shame.
06:21Our house is now allied with the house of Leonardus.
06:24Irene, you'd better pick a worthy match.
06:27Don't you dare disgrace us.
06:29Mother, please.
06:31My dear sister is the beloved of the gods, isn't she?
06:34She'd never bring shame to father's name before the whole of Athens.
06:39I bet her laurel will fall upon a man so remarkable that the entire city will be in an uproar.
06:48With your sister's match, we are allied with the gods.
06:52Irene, you must bring us the wealth of the Agenian.
06:55Power and wealth bound as one.
06:57Only then shall the glory of our line truly shine.
07:08Wealth and power are the golden shackles that bind the soul.
07:12This time, I won't sacrifice for the family's glory.
07:16I only seek a simple heart and a quiet life.
07:22My lady! Throw it to me!
07:31This beautiful lady!
07:33Over here!
07:35The lady! Throw it to me!
08:05Is it him in my place?
08:07In the past life, he was the one who caught Eris' wreath.
08:13Great Apollo!
08:14A sacred wreath caught by a ragged minster?
08:18What a cruel joke!
08:21Talk about bad luck!
08:23You rejected the elite of Athens,
08:25only to throw your future to a lowly minister.
08:28Father's going to be so humiliated!
08:34You useless girl!
08:36Out of all the lords in Athens!
08:38You pick a beggar!
08:40You did this on purpose, didn't you?
08:42Making the whole city laugh at us!
08:45My lord, calm down.
08:47At least Eris has brought us glory.
08:49She's tied us to the divine-blooded family.
08:52Without her, we'd be a complete joke today.
08:57Oh, this is going to be good.
08:59The rich merchant's daughter is really going to marry some ragged minster?
09:05Apollo's laurel has spoken.
09:07The oath is done.
09:08If she backs out, she's cursing her whole family.
09:12Who's going to trust a merchant who cheats the gods?
09:20Quick!
09:21Seize her!
09:22Don't let her get away!
09:30My lord, why in the gods' names did you catch that?
09:33What are we going to do?
09:34Please drop it!
09:35The laurel is Apollo's decree, Othrus.
09:38To catch it is to bind one's fate.
09:40Besides, look at me in these rags.
09:42She'll be more than happy to redeem her oath with gold.
10:06You're the one who threw the laurel!
10:08Nobody forced your hand!
10:10Why run from your own choice now?
10:11You disgrace!
10:12Look at this ragged minster you've brought upon us!
10:15If that beggar joins this family, we'll be the biggest joke in the city!
10:20In my past life, I was offered as a sacrifice to Leonidas' power.
10:25Now, I see.
10:27I would sooner wed a ragged minster and find some simple peace.
10:32Apollo has seen your choice!
10:34It's final!
10:36Even if you dare defy the heavens,
10:38the laws of this city will hold you to it!
10:41I'll marry him!
10:54I'll marry him!
11:05I'm Irene.
11:06What's your name?
11:07I'm Phaeus.
11:13Let all of you, and the immortal gods above, bear witness.
11:18I, Irene, will keep the laurel oath.
11:22I will marry Phaeus.
11:25You really want to marry me?
11:27Of course.
11:28Since the God of Light has guided into your hands, this oath is done.
11:33Surely you aren't the one looking to back out now?
11:37No, I'm not.
11:40But I'm dirt poor, Irene.
11:42If you marry me, you trade your glory for the dust.
11:46Are you true ready for that?
11:47I am.
11:49We have our own two hands and a will to thrive.
11:52As long as we work hard, the gods will surely grant us enough to survive.
11:58All the gods on Olympus do is scheme for power.
12:01And yet in this fragile mortal realm, I have found a spirit as pure as the dawn.
12:06Some ragged Mintra who can barely scrape by on a broken lyre!
12:10And you think he's a gift from the gods?!
12:13Irene, my dear, listen to reason.
12:17The man can't provide for himself.
12:19If you wed him, you are throwing your life into the dirt.
12:25Fine clothes don't make a man noble.
12:28Honesty and character do.
12:31Bodios carries himself with real pride, not arrogance.
12:34He's a better man than most.
12:36And he's the one I'm marrying.
12:38You're beyond hopeless!
12:40The laurel oath is sealed!
12:41The gods are watching!
12:43Lord Demetrius can't back out now!
12:48Fine!
12:49You've made your choice.
12:50Don't come crying to us later.
12:53Just remember, once you're married, you're nothing to us.
12:57Don't you dare crawl back when the glory of this house leaves you behind!
13:01Yes, father.
13:03I understand.
13:07Move along!
13:08Nothing more to see here!
13:10Be on your way!
13:17Lord Leonanus!
13:18Please wait!
13:19Please come with us.
13:21We need to discuss your marriage to Eris.
13:36Oh, sister!
13:37Remember I warned you?
13:39Marry this beggar and you'll spend your life in the gutter, forever looking up at me!
13:45Better keep praying, Eris.
13:46The life of a divine-blooded family is far from the dream you imagine.
13:50It's a storm, and you aren't ready for it.
14:02It's a storm, and you aren't ready for it.
14:03Out of the way!
14:06Hot soup!
14:07Out of the way!
14:08Hot soup!
14:22You alright?
14:23Are you hurt?
14:24I'm alright, really.
14:26If getting a little hurt means you'll fret over me, it's a fair trade.
14:29Please have mercy!
14:30Please forgive me!
14:31Please forgive me!
14:32It's okay.
14:33Go on, get back to work.
14:35Just watch your step.
14:36I've seen nothing but cruel, arrogant nobles my whole life.
14:40Meeting someone so kind and honest.
14:43Perhaps the God of Light really is watching over me.
14:50Remember, three days, Fias.
14:52Don't you dare forget.
14:55Come for me, and bring the oath we've made.
14:58I'll be waiting to be your bride.
15:00I'll be there.
15:02I promise.
15:05Behold the dowry of Eris Demetrius!
15:09Her dowry!
15:11One pair of solid gold lairal hairpins!
15:15Ninety-nine chests of Athenian gold coins!
15:17Blessed by the gods!
15:19The younger daughter's dowry is fit for a king!
15:23Of course.
15:24She's marrying Lord Leonidas from a divine-blooded family.
15:27The older one chose a wandering musician.
15:29You don't waste treasure on a daughter who's determined to be a beggar.
15:32So, you're really going through with it?
15:34Marrying a minster?
15:35Better get used to the dirt, sister.
15:39I wonder how long those pretty little hands of yours will last.
