20:38julian
20:39in the book alaric just tried to speak up for julian and this old man banished them to the black
20:44domian abyss for the royal hunt he called it training but it was a death sentence they were swarmed by
20:50high level beasts alaric lost a leg and julian's mana veins were shattered protecting him he became a
20:58total cripple father may i hold sarah as well and then there's poor felix he was supposed to be the
21:05champion of the hunt titled the god of war and lead our armies to victory but in the book nerissa
21:11made
21:12sure he never even made it back from the border the next time he saw father was on the battlefield

21:54for the hunt you'd better mean that tomorrow is the royal hunt all three of you will participate
22:08and fight for the honor of valeria this old man is so stubborn he's a hopeless case
22:13he knows it's a trap and he's still sending them naraza and sebastian have already set a deadly trap in
22:19the
22:19mist forest my three tall handsome rich brothers are walking straight to their deaths
22:27i'll have secret guards watching narissa she won't be allowed to leave the palace
22:32wait the old geezer is actually waking up looks like narissa's little act is falling apart
22:38as for sarah she cannot go i will stay at the palace to protect her personally

22:50dry while
22:51you're napping help i want to go to the hunt with my brothers don't leave me in this death trap
22:58father i think we should take sarah with us
23:03exactly she has mother's ring and the eternal guardian
23:06in terms of defense she's actually the safest one among us
23:10sarah is our lucky star who knows maybe she'll be the one protecting us there's definitely a
23:17generation gap with the old man my brothers are the best fine fine have it your way but the four
23:25of
23:25you must stay together do not let your guard down welcome to the annual royal hunt whoever captures the
23:35legendary sacred stag will be crowned this year's champion now i declare let the hunt begin
23:52narissa
23:54what are you doing here you three must have pitied me so didn't wake me up
24:00that's why i'm a bit late nonsense who authorized your release
24:04you are not participating in this hunt return to the palace at once why why can a foundling baby
24:09go but i your daughter cannot father you are being far too biased this is a royal command
24:18you old fool getting in my way since you're so eager to die i'll kill you first oh no she
24:24used dark
24:25magic to force a power boost so she could wipe out my brothers she can't control the energy she's about
24:31to strike father look out old man narissa the forest is incredibly dangerous father is only concerned for
24:38your safety my my if you brothers don't want narissa i certainly do narissa since your brothers don't
24:47cherish you come with me instead fine since you're so eager to be the fool take her with you brothers
24:53let's move out sarah is losing her patience that baby is a total jinx nothing but bad luck whenever
24:59she's around fine i'll go with that sebastian for now and wait for the perfect moment to strike
25:05then i thank you prince sebastian let's go
25:16boar at 50 meters to the left combat power two stars juliet can handle it with a snap of his
25:23fingers but do not touch that sweet smelling grass straight ahead it's a soul eater spider trap
25:29narissa said it's specific for felix because she knows he loves the scent of that herb
25:34that was close i almost fell for it again felix what's wrong nothing i just feel like the mist
25:41is getting thicker of course it's thick sebastian has already activated the forbidden scroll
25:47he's turning this forest into an inescapable labyrinth julian do you have any treasures that can
25:52break through a labyrinth seal it seems completely useless against the seal tainted with dark magic
25:57of course it won't work the forest guardian the sacred stag has been trapped by the wicked array
26:02they set up beforehand with the stag trapped the forest purication is gone if you guys don't find
26:09the stag and break the seal by midnight every pure soul in this forest will become fuel for narissa's
26:14dark magic that includes me she'll drain me dry help help help since we can't walk out of here locate
26:22the
26:22stag directly don't be afraid sarah as long as we're here we won't let anything happen to you
26:28wow my brothers are the best come on think where exactly is the sacred stag
26:36ah i remember now it's under that withered millennial oak tree that's the heart of the forest in the
26:43center of the array the stag is trapped in a dark magic seal called the eternal cage
26:51the poor stag those black chains are draining its life force brothers look there are four skulls around
26:58the array those are the anchor points they must be destroyed at the same time four anchor points but
27:06there are only three of us there's me too the sapphire necklace around my neck the eternal guardian its
27:13power is the perfect counter for this evil stuff just throw it over sarah this is our only shot
27:23julian felix get ready on three one two three
27:38you're useless you couldn't even keep the labyrinth seal intact and you promised they'd never return
27:45what do you know you think they've won just because they freed that stag that was the trap within
27:51the trap the true dark magic isn't in those skulls it is inside the stag itself as long as they
27:58get
27:58close to that beast the first triggers just watch they'll all be dead within seconds
28:09stop stop stop aleric don't go any closer that stag is a time bomb
28:14naracia planted a void curse in its heart it's going to blow aleric what is it what do i do
28:21it's too late the curse has already set aleric
28:32my god
28:33my god the sacred stag of this forest has submitted to her on its own
28:52it's a soul covenant from now on the power of this entire forest belongs to her
28:57as long as she stands on this land she is practically a goddess
29:08sarah is that you oh my god i'm grown up i can speak heaven has finally to its senses

29:26screaming in my head i can finally say them out loud how can this be where is my power where
29:36is my
29:37dark magic it seems the forest's spiritual energy has drained you dry
29:49the sacred stag has bonded with my daughter father the sacred stag has bonded its soul to sarah
29:55melodia has won this year's hunt
30:03father father save me sebastian tricked me he wants to kill me
30:08finally this moment after holding it in for so long this time this time i am saying it out loud
30:16this gentle kind at prince senorisi is in truth
30:19a witch who has practiced dark magic for many years before this hunt she forced her dark magic
30:25past its limit hoping to wipe out my brothers in the forest but the forest's pure energy turned
30:31against her and now every ounce of her power is gone felix poisoning a julian's framing all those
30:40strange events in the palace it was all your dying

30:53father's love the princess's devotion the fate of the kingdom until that filthy thing from the
30:59wilderness appeared she stole my destiny she took everything that was supposed to be mine i did not
31:06steal your destiny you chose your own path of no return if i cannot have anything then you shall have
31:14nothing in either

31:31i
31:36Sarah!
31:40Sarah, open your eyes!
31:43You vile witch!
31:46She's dead! She's dead!
31:48My destiny has returned to me!
31:53There's still a heartbeat.
31:56Your Majesty!
31:57The little princess's soul has been sealed by dark magic.
32:00She has fallen into a deep slumber.
32:04How can this be undone?
32:05The curse is bound to the caster's last drop of life force.
32:09It will not lift until that magic naturally fades, or unless some miracle occurs.
32:15Narasa, I once raised you as my own, granted you the title of princess.
32:20Today you have wielded dark magic, poisoned the royal house, and struck down my own daughter.
32:24I hereby decree you are stripped of your status as a ward of Valoria and of every title bestowed upon
32:30you.
32:30From this day forth, you are banished from this kingdom, never to return!
32:35Father!
32:36One day you will regret this!
32:40Home.
32:42Let us go home.
32:46Little one, let me hear your voice one more time, please.
32:53Brother, I'll go after Narisha and force her to undo the curse with her own hands!
32:57It's no use.
32:58Her magic is gone.
32:59She can do nothing now.
33:01From the day Father brought this little one home from the wilderness,
33:05every single day we heard her chattering in our minds.
33:07It's so loud, so annoying.
33:11And yet now...
33:13Hmm.
33:14Why is it so dark?
33:16Where is this?
33:17Sarah?
33:19I feel like I'm dreaming, but this dream feels so real.
33:24I can feel someone holding my hand.
33:27Brother, you heard that too.
33:30We heard it.
33:31It's Sarah, it's her voice.
33:35What is it?
33:37Has Sarah woken?
33:38Hmm.
33:39Do I smell hot milk?
33:41Is that Father?
33:42Father, why are you up this late warming milk for me?
33:45You're not getting younger.
33:48You need your rest.
33:50Sarah.
33:52My Sarah.
33:54You're still here.
33:58Sarah, I caught you a spirit squirrel from the holy mountains of the north.
34:02They say its call brings joy to whoever hears it.
34:05It's so noisy.
34:07Who's squeaking right in my ear?
34:09Out, out, out!
34:11You're disturbing the princess's sleep!
34:14Brother, you haven't slept in three days.
34:17It's fine.
34:18Why am I asleep?
34:20I remember exposing Nerissa.
34:23And then she lunged at me.
34:25No, wait.
34:26Why did I grow to seven years old?
34:29I rushed it.
34:31In the original story, Nerissa was supposed to be cornered by many forces much later.
34:36Only then driven to her dead end.
34:39I exposed her too early.
34:40She still had her last breath of magic when I did.
34:44It was not supposed to happen this way.
34:46I sped up everyone's fate.
34:48I bent the entire story by force.
34:52And now it's bending back on me.
34:55Then, how do I wake up?
34:58Let the story return to its rightful course.
35:02In the original story, Nerissa does not die so easily.
35:06She flees to Sebastian's kingdom, claims to have gained the gift of prophecy, and ignites war between the two kingdoms.
35:12Then she is outwitted, exposed, discarded, and meets a wretched end.
35:16That is her true ending in the book.
35:18I have to let the story follow that thread.
35:21Only when Nerissa walks her original fate to the end will I have any chance of waking.
35:26But I am asleep now.
35:29I can do nothing.
35:31How would father and my brothers ever know all this?
35:35You heard her?
35:37Yes.
35:38Let the original plot unfold as it should.
35:40Now this is interesting.
35:42My foolish little girl.
35:44You think father and your brothers would ever let you bear this alone?
35:48Our spies report that Nerissa has slipped into the Vervemont Palace alone and sought audience with Sebastian.
35:54Useless!
35:55Her magic is gone!
35:57Why didn't our men intercept her on the road?
35:59Felix, did you forget what Sarah said?
36:01The story must return to its rightful course.
36:03Nerissa fleeing to Sebastian was always part of the original plot.
36:07So we help her?
36:08Help her perform this play to its very last act.
36:11Let the wretched ending the original book wrote for her fall upon her word for word.
36:17Well, well.
36:19If it isn't the cast out Princess of Valeria, what brings you here?
36:24Your Highness, I have come to help you unite the two kingdoms.
36:29You?
36:30A powerless wretch?
36:31With what do you plan to help me?
36:34My dark magic may be gone, but in the moment of the backlash I gain something far more terrifying.
36:41What thing?
36:42The gift of prophecy.
36:44I can see every movement of Valeria's armor.
36:48Words alone prove nothing.
36:50If you want me to believe you, you'll have to prove it.
36:54Tell me how, Your Highness, I will do anything.
36:58I may have lost my magic, but my spy inside Valeria's palace was never discovered.
37:04That is enough.
37:09In the original story, Narissa's first move was to use her hidden contact inside the palace to feed intel to
37:15Sebastian.
37:21Sarah said there is a spy inside the palace, feeding intelligence to Sebastian.
37:25As I expected.
37:28A stable boy in the palace named Marcus.
37:31Every three days, he leaves under the pretest of delivering feed, each time by a different route at a different
37:38hour.
37:38Seize him.
37:40Question him under whatever measure necessary.
37:43Father, no.
37:45He is our finest tool for sending Narissa to her doom.
37:50We shall feed Narissa exactly the intelligence she craves.
37:56Your Highness, this woman's origins are dubious.
38:01Will you really entrust military secrets to her prophecies?
38:04I want to see for myself whether her boasts can withstand scrutiny.
38:10Speak.
38:11Predict every troop movement Valeria will make in the coming month.
38:15My ministers will record every word.
38:17In seven days, Valeria will depatch 3,000 elite troops to the eastern frontier, with Prince Julian personally overseeing the
38:25supplies.
38:27In ten days, the northern garrison rotates, and Prince Felix is ordered to train new recruits in the north.
38:33In other words, on the 8th of next month, Valeria's eastern frontier will be an empty city, defended only by
38:41leaderless reserves.
38:43Such precision.
38:44And how am I to verify this?
38:46Send your Highness' most trusted spy into Valeria to verify.
38:50I stake my own head on the truth of it.
38:53And so the sleeping princess waited, and waited, for a thousand years.
38:59Narissa attended Sebastian's war council today.
39:03She predicts our army's new events.
39:07In the original story, Sebastian sends a spy to Valeria to verify.
39:10This is the critical moment for our false intelligence.
39:14If the spy sees what Narissa said, word for word, Sebastian will believe her completely.
39:19But how would father and my brothers ever think this far ahead?
39:23Your Highness, every word Princess Narissa spake, is true.
39:31Excellent. What a goddess of prophecy.
39:34Issue my command.
39:35In ten days, our army marches.
39:37We crush Valeria's eastern frontier in a single strike!
39:46Help me seize Valeria, and I shall make you my queen.
39:50Foolish man.
39:52Once I am your queen and bear your son,
39:55all of Viramund will also be mine.
40:05Felix, the enemy is too strong.
40:07We are not prepared.
40:08Per the plan, retreat.
40:10Abandon the city!
40:12And fall back to the second line of defense!
40:23A glorious first victory, Your Highness.
40:27Let me toast you.
40:29You are far more useful than I expected.
40:31Your Highness, I have seen another vision.
40:35In three days, only Prince Alaric will hold Valeria's second line of defense.
40:41Prince Julian will have already retreated to the capital.
40:45If Your Highness leads the raid in person,
40:47Prince Alaric can be captured in a single strike.
40:52Alaric!
40:53That hordy, cold-faced heir of Valeria!
40:56I shall have him groveling at my feet!
41:01Did Sarah send you to protect me as well?
41:08Alaric!
41:08Heir of Valeria!
41:11Surprised, are you?
41:12Tonight I come for your head!
41:23Welcome.
41:32An empty city, just as she said.
41:35Neressa, this time I shall reward you handsomely.
41:43From this day forth, Valeria's second defense line also belongs to me!
41:52The proud heir of Valeria kneeling at my feet.
41:55How does it feel?
41:57You should not have come yourself.
41:59I came precisely because I wanted to.
42:13Impossible!
42:14The intelligence clearly stated Valeria's main force was still in the capital.
42:19Princess, Valeria's main army is closing in from west, south and north.
42:23Our line of retreat has been cut.
42:27My intelligence could not be wrong.
42:31You set me up!
42:35Not me.
42:36Not me.
42:36It was my little sister.
42:38Who still lies sleeping.
42:57Father, Alaric, we did it.
43:02Yes, my Sarah.
43:04We did it.
43:13You lying witch!
43:16You have doomed his highness!
43:22Impossible.
43:24How can this be?
43:29Speak.
43:30The child in your Bemi, is it mine?
43:34Your highness, of course it is yours.
43:41Your highness!
43:43This young woman is not with child at all!
43:47You wretched horde!
43:49You dare perceive me!
43:51Calm yourself, your highness.
43:53There is yet one more thing you do not know.
43:55Speak!
43:57This Princess Nerissa is no true Velouria princess.
44:01She is an orphan our father took in 20 years ago from the chaos of war.
44:07What? A ward?
44:10I, Sebastian, lost an army and disgraced my crown for a swindling woman without a drop of royal blood.
44:19No!
44:21Let me end her with my own hands!
44:23Stop!
44:24Nerissa is a fugitive of Velouria.
44:28Her judgement is not yours to deliver!
44:39Sebastian, Crown Prince of Viramont, you initiated unprovoked war and invaded Velouria, bringing suffering upon the people of both lands.
44:47By the treaty between our two kingdoms. How shall you be judged?
44:51Your majesty of Velouria, our king will cede six eastern border cities in reparution plus 10,000 gold coins annually
45:01for 20 years.
45:03Begging only for the life of our crown prince!
45:07So be it. Prince Sebastian will remain in Velouria as a hostage for two years to oversee the reparations.
45:13He may return home only after that term is fulfilled.
45:17Nerissa, you were my ward. I treated you as my own daughter.
45:21And yet, you practiced the dark arts, poisoned my youngest son, framed my second, conspired against the royal house, committed
45:27high treason, and struck down my own daughter!
45:30Ha ha ha ha! Father, do you still not see?
45:34I was meant to be your only daughter, the only princess of Velouria!
45:38Your son's devotion, your tender love, the fate of this kingdom, all of it was meant to be mine!
45:47Until that filthy thing from the Underless appeared!
45:50She stole my place! She took the destiny that was supposed to be mine!
45:55From the day you first touched dark magic, you ceased to be my daughter.
46:00By the laws of Velouria, one who wields dark magic and conspires against the crown shall be stripped of all
46:06titles, exiled to the frozen islands, never to return!
46:10No! Not the frozen islands! All of this was supposed to be mine! All of this was supposed to be
46:16mine! Was supposed to be mine!
46:29Your Highness, tomorrow is the Little Princess's coronation. His Majesty has decreed, tonight, no one is to keep vigil. He
46:37will sit with her alone.
46:39Very well.
46:44Little one, tomorrow is your coronation. These past few years, father has aged greatly.
46:49Coronation? Me? I've slept... so long. The story should have... returned to its course long ago. Why have I not
46:59woken? What is still missing? What is missing?
47:05My Sarah, tomorrow is your coronation. This crown was worn by your mother on the day of her own coronation.
47:12Her greatest regret, before she passed, was never seeing her own daughter wear it.
47:18Sarah...
47:19Sarah, you have slept for so long. These past years, your father and your three brothers have done everything imaginable.
47:26Neressa is exiled to the frozen islands. Sebastian has paid his price and returned home. Velouria has never been stronger.
47:33And yet, there remains a hollow place in my heart. Father does not lack a daughter. Father lacks you. It
47:44matters not how the crown sits upon you. If only you would wake. If only you would call me Father
47:50one more time. I would surrender all the rest.
48:05Father...
48:06Father...
48:07Sarah, my Sarah...
48:09Father... Sarah has come home.
48:14I am not the heroine of this story. I am only a daughter, lifted from the wilderness by her father's
48:20hands. This time, I will simply be that daughter.
48:29Father didn't return all night. I thought something had happened.
48:32Good morning, Felix. Why does Felix look at me like he's seen a ghost? It's not as if I actually
48:39died.
48:42Sarah, you're awake! You're awake!
48:45Felix, my milk is going to spill.
48:50Sarah...
48:51Sarah...
48:52Sarah...
48:52Brother, I've waited for you for so long.
48:55Goodness. So much commotion this early in the morning, my eyeliner is going to run.
48:59Julian, when have you ever worn eyeliner?
49:02Sarah, the coronation, do you wish for it to precede a schedule?
49:05Yes. Sarah is father's daughter.
49:08Sarah is the princess of Velouria.
49:11From today onward, Sarah will truly bear this name.
49:14I have never asked you, Sarah.
49:17Do you truly wish to call me father?
49:20Yes.
49:22It was you who lifted Sarah from the wilderness. You have given Sarah everything.
49:29Father, Sarah once came from a place far, far away. But from the moment I woke, I have known my
49:36true home is here.
49:38Where you came from, I never cared. I only cared whether you would stay.
49:52My dearest little princess, will you allow your brother Felix the honor of escorting you in?
50:13May the glory of Princess Seraphina of Velouria endure forever.
50:18May my little sister know nothing but joy all her days.
50:22May our Sarah be cherished by the whole world. Always.
50:26From this day forth, you are Princess Seraphina of Velouria, bearer of the crown's honor of our glory, of every
50:33pure soul in this land.
50:36People of Velouria, welcome your princess!
50:44I once believed I was the one who chose my destiny. Then destiny pushed me into a place I never
50:51knew, turning me into a baby abandoned in the wilderness with nothing but tears.
50:55I thought I would change everything. But the truth is, my father in this place, and my three brothers, with
51:03their love, piece by piece, made me into the true Seraphana.
51:07This time, I do not choose my destiny. I accept it. Because what destiny gave me is the most precious
51:15family in this world.
