Short filmTranscript
00:00:04As my husband, I've lost count of how many times Sasi has paraded his ally right in front of me.
00:00:11Of course, tonight is an exception.
00:00:14He thinks I'm visiting relatives in the country.
00:00:17He hasn't the faintest idea.
00:00:20Little 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.
00:00:41So 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?
00:01:07I'm just an ally, my lady.
00:01:09You're wrong.
00:01:11Why 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?
00:01:21You're right.
00:01:30Mmm...
00:01:31Mmm...
00:01:33Mmm...
00:01:36Mmm...
00:01:38Ohh.
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!
00:02:14Scar 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?
00:02:37You're sneaking around.
00:02:38What 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!
00:02:53Forgive 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.
00:03:18My 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.
00:03:28Tonight 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. I'd defeat for a chance to go inside. You'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. Grandfather 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.
00:04:34General, his majesty has sent word. The 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. We're still screening them.
00:04:45After that night, the hallucination 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.
00:05:06My lady. After you.
00:05:11Is that Vatret Skur'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.
00:05:28It'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.
00:05:44My apologies, my lady, but we cannot allow you inside dressed like that.
00:05:48I know.
00:05:49That's why I need to borrow your sword for a moment.
00:05:51Please don't make a scene here, ma'am.
00:05:54I just...
00:05:56Use mine.
00:06:05It's the man from the masquerade.
00:06:09General, 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.
00:06:18Thank you, general.
00:06:25Actually looks better than before.
00:06:29You flatter me, general.
00:06:30Just a quick fix.
00:06:32I'll see you inside.
00:06:41That woman.
00:06:42Why does she feel so familiar?
00:07:02Erich 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 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'm 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, I need to find Edward.
00:07:43See if they've brought any spare prisoners.
00:07:47Cousin!
00:07:47The party's just starting.
00:07:49What's the rush?
00:07:51What is it?
00:07:52Oh, nothing 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 lines some coin, I've been keeping prices rock bottom for years.
00:08:07I hardly make a dime.
00:08:12So regarding the rations 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.
00:08:41Many 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, yes, exactly!
00:08:50All for the Empire!
00:08:51You're defending him.
00:08:54Just stating the facts.
00:08:56And what are you to him?
00:08:57His wife.
00:08:59So 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.
00:09:14I 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.
00:09:24Are you going to interrogate our marriage now, too?
00:09:35Forgive my intrusion.
00:09:38General!
00:09:40I want a new logistics plan on my desk in two days.
00:09:43If it's the same garbage as before.
00:09:46Then you're done with the northern contracts.
00:09:48Forever.
00:09:49Yes, yes, of course!
00:09:50I'll redraw everything!
00:10:00A stroke of luck, actually.
00:10:02There's no way Scar can come up with a new plan.
00:10:05If I use this to make him sleep with me again.
00:10:07Then you can stay.
00:10:09Loud and clear.
00:10:14Good thing you had one on standby.
00:10:22General, please, let me go.
00:10:24I'm just a foot soldier.
00:10:25I was following orders.
00:10:28My girl is waiting for me back home.
00:10:30Please, no, please!
00:10:35Crimson Raven.
00:10:39General.
00:10:41Why haven't you found the woman from the masquerade yet?
00:10:47Are you quite sure you can handle the consequences?
00:11:14What the hell is wrong with you?
00:11:19A cold-blooded monster.
00:11:21He actually thinks he's some hero of the Empire.
00:11:23Don't be angry, my lord.
00:11:25Have some wine.
00:11:28A cold-blooded monster.
00:11:30And I'm killing his child.
00:11:32If he finds out I only used him for his food,
00:11:34he'll care me to pieces.
00:11:36No.
00:11:37The planning report can start.
00:11:45Women who come to my door usually fall into one of two categories.
00:11:48Those who want to get pregnant with someone else's child
00:11:50and those who want to get rid of their own.
00:11:53Which one are you?
00:11:54The latter.
00:11:58I'm out of a few herbs.
00:11:59I need to go fetch them.
00:12:10There's a gentleman in the back room
00:12:11who claims he's being haunted by the dead.
00:12:14If you hear him ring the bell,
00:12:15do me a favor and toss some of this incense
00:12:16into the burner for him.
00:12:24Let go!
00:12:26What are you doing?
00:12:30What is Scar's wife doing in a place like this?
00:12:38With someone else's child
00:12:39and those who want to get rid of their own.
00:12:42Those who want to get...
00:12:44Surely the general doesn't think I'm the latter.
00:12:47I hear you and Scar have only been married for three months
00:12:49in such a rush to have a baby.
00:12:52You're awfully invested in other people's private matters, general.
00:12:56Get out.
00:13:00I caused the burn.
00:13:01The least I can do is treat it.
00:13:03Not necessary.
00:13:03Leave the medicine.
00:13:04I'll do it myself.
00:13:05You can't exactly reach your own back.
00:13:15What a perfect body.
00:13:17Do you usually tend to your own mark, general?
00:13:20Yes, I don't like people touching my body.
00:13:23Apologies.
00:13:24This might sting a bit, general.
00:13:26All done.
00:13:27Hold on.
00:13:28Have you seen it before?
00:13:31Never.
00:13:32Is that so?
00:13:33I think it would suit me perfectly.
00:13:37General, please mind your boundaries.
00:13:40Percent exactly the same.
00:13:49Changed your mind?
00:13:50If the man inside asked what I was doing here,
00:13:51tell him the exact opposite.
00:13:57He has the earring.
00:13:59If he finds out the secret,
00:14:00I'll never be able to explain myself.
00:14:02I need to end this.
00:14:03Fast.
00:14:07How is there so much of this?
00:14:12Caravans, tariffs,
00:14:14where's housing?
00:14:15That Lunar Tork wants me to reorganize everything in two days.
00:14:17Does he think I'm the Chancellor of the Exement?
00:14:20Don't be so grumpy, my lord.
00:14:22Besides,
00:14:23selling off a few properties
00:14:24will keep us comfortable for a long time.
00:14:27What do you know?
00:14:28I refuse to end up like my father,
00:14:30eating through his fortune
00:14:31till nothing was left
00:14:32but the title of a broke nobleman.
00:14:41But I suppose you have a point.
00:14:43What's the harm in selling one or two?
00:14:49Gently.
00:14:50I can't keep the baby.
00:14:53I can't keep it.
00:14:57Did you hear?
00:14:59The ally is starting to sell off the family estates.
00:15:01But those belong to her ladyship's grandfather.
00:15:05Where did you hear that?
00:15:06My lady.
00:15:08What is going on?
00:15:09The ally said
00:15:11that the northern contracts are likely gone
00:15:13so he's selling off assets early
00:15:15to cover our expenses.
00:15:17Ska?
00:15:24Ska, we need to talk.
00:15:30Ever heard of knocking?
00:15:32Don't stop.
00:15:34You picked a bad time.
00:15:37If you still want the northern contracts,
00:15:40tell her to get out.
00:15:41You have a logistics plan?
00:15:43I said, tell her to get out.
00:15:48Ska?
00:15:52Get out.
00:15:54Why bother kicking me out?
00:15:56We're both women.
00:15:57I can tell you've no interest
00:15:58in intense confrontation, me for him.
00:16:00Not necessarily.
00:16:04Spill it.
00:16:06What's your play?
00:16:08I already have a solution
00:16:09for the northern supply routes.
00:16:11Tomorrow I'll go with you to see Eric.
00:16:14You seem different today.
00:16:17You were just too focused
00:16:18on my grandfather's money to notice.
00:16:20Save it.
00:16:20If you fix this logistics mess,
00:16:22I might actually treat you a bit better.
00:16:24On the condition
00:16:24that you stop selling off
00:16:25your grandfather's estate.
00:16:29Deal.
00:16:32But wait!
00:16:33What is it?
00:16:35You're more beautiful.
00:16:37Intoxicating.
00:16:38More?
00:16:39But let me tell you,
00:16:40my name is Ska.
00:16:41Ska Elfrancis.
00:16:44That was close.
00:16:49Ska Elfrancis.
00:16:51Wait.
00:16:52Is that her ladyship?
00:16:54Breath?
00:16:55Are you crazy?
00:16:56How dare you fantasize
00:16:57about her ladyship?
00:16:58Ska.
00:17:00Ska Elfrancis.
00:17:01No, I've been telling you
00:17:02for several years.
00:17:03Wait, wait.
00:17:04I think I heard it too.
00:17:10Don't do that.
00:17:11Did you hear?
00:17:12Her ladyship actually
00:17:13consummated the marriage
00:17:15with the ally.
00:17:16I thought he never touched her.
00:17:18It's true!
00:17:21Doesn't she find him repulsive?
00:17:24Finally over.
00:17:27If he tries to sell
00:17:28my inheritance once,
00:17:29he'll do it again.
00:17:30How much worse
00:17:31can things possibly get?
00:17:33I'm risking it!
00:17:35It's not as if
00:17:35I have any other way out.
00:17:45You don't want to make
00:17:46a fool of yourself
00:17:47in front of your cousin,
00:17:48do you?
00:17:53That was rape!
00:17:55Rape?
00:17:56Aren't we husband and wife?
00:17:57Are you going to tell
00:17:58the whole world
00:17:58that I raped you,
00:17:59Lord Vanknet?
00:18:00A merchant's daughter.
00:18:01Shameless as expected.
00:18:03Your grandfather's
00:18:04entail is clear.
00:18:05Only your legitimate child
00:18:06can inherit the Valentin shops,
00:18:07lands, and granaries.
00:18:10But I'm telling you right now,
00:18:11you won't get a second chance
00:18:12like that.
00:18:13What, once wasn't enough?
00:18:14Do you really have
00:18:15that little faith
00:18:15in your own stamina?
00:18:17You bitch!
00:18:18Don't celebrate just yet, Mellis.
00:18:20Once you secure
00:18:20those northern contracts for me,
00:18:22you'll be completely useless.
00:18:23I'll make you wish
00:18:24you were dead.
00:18:29Two days.
00:18:32Interesting.
00:18:33Seems you haven't been
00:18:34slacking after all.
00:18:35Of course.
00:18:37How could I neglect
00:18:38a direct order
00:18:39from the General?
00:18:40I poured my energy,
00:18:41sweat, and tears
00:18:41into this...
00:18:42But why does it say
00:18:44to bypass Ashport?
00:18:47Well, because...
00:18:48because that port is...
00:18:49narrow.
00:18:51Right?
00:18:51The roads are terrible.
00:18:53I hear it's the largest port
00:18:54in the entire empire.
00:18:55Did you not know that?
00:18:56Because Ashport has been
00:18:57cracking down on salt smuggling
00:18:58recently.
00:18:59The caravans are critical
00:19:00military ranchers for the north.
00:19:01If they go through Ashport
00:19:02and get detained
00:19:03on suspicion of smuggling,
00:19:04the delays would starve
00:19:05the northern garrisons
00:19:05within three weeks.
00:19:06That's why we must re-route
00:19:08through the eastern waterways,
00:19:09although it adds four days
00:19:10to the journey.
00:19:12But at least it's secure.
00:19:21Fascinating.
00:19:21It seems you aren't
00:19:22the real businessmen
00:19:23in the Alfronson family, Scott.
00:19:24No, that's not true.
00:19:25A lot of the other routes
00:19:26were my idea.
00:19:28I hate being lied to.
00:19:30Next time,
00:19:31it'll be your throat
00:19:32on the end of this blade.
00:19:34Close one.
00:19:35Looks like he still
00:19:35hasn't recognized me.
00:19:37The northern contracts
00:19:38are yours, fine.
00:19:39But she has to be involved.
00:19:41But cousin!
00:19:42Get out.
00:19:45Lady Melis,
00:19:47I didn't say you could leave.
00:20:06Melis Valentine,
00:20:07your grandfather built a fine business,
00:20:10but a merchant's a merchant.
00:20:11The Alphronzi's family's fallen shore,
00:20:14but they still have
00:20:14have a title.
00:20:15You married him.
00:20:17Give and take.
00:20:19Must be humiliating, though.
00:20:26If you're trying to stir
00:20:27trouble between us,
00:20:28I'll leave.
00:20:31The North is secured,
00:20:32but the Empire's still surrounded.
00:20:34I need talent.
00:20:35Join my staff.
00:20:37Good pay,
00:20:37and I'll help you
00:20:38take back everything
00:20:39Scustsold.
00:20:40Something's off.
00:20:41You flatter me, General,
00:20:43but I'm just a woman.
00:20:44Why go through
00:20:44all this trouble for me?
00:20:47Because the perfume you wear
00:20:51smells just like someone.
00:20:53Someone I can't forget.
00:20:55My perfume costs
00:20:56three silver coins.
00:20:58Half the girls
00:20:58in the city wear it.
00:21:00I enjoy a good play
00:21:01in my spare time.
00:21:02Been working on one lately.
00:21:03A husband steals
00:21:04his wife's inheritance,
00:21:05flaunts his affair,
00:21:06so the wife,
00:21:07to masquerade,
00:21:07takes a stranger to bed,
00:21:09right under his nose.
00:21:10What do you think, my lady?
00:21:12Better than what's on
00:21:12at the theater?
00:21:13You've missed your calling, General.
00:21:14Should have been a playwright.
00:21:16Put them on.
00:21:17Then I'll know.
00:21:18General, please.
00:21:20I just want to be sure.
00:21:24Is this your war room
00:21:25or a torture chamber?
00:21:29Both.
00:21:30Let go!
00:21:31Have you lost your mind?
00:21:35This madman,
00:21:36he can't find out.
00:21:40Watch out!
00:21:44The great general,
00:21:45assaulting his cousin's wife
00:21:47and his own whole empire
00:21:47would be ashamed.
00:21:48Find someone else
00:21:49for your staff, General.
00:21:59My lady,
00:22:00the Allies celebrating
00:22:01the Northern Deal.
00:22:02He's taken Lady Lilith
00:22:03to the hunting lodge
00:22:04and chose not to wait for you.
00:22:08Fine.
00:22:09Earrings gone,
00:22:10scars gone.
00:22:12At least tonight
00:22:12I get some peace.
00:22:16General,
00:22:18are you all right?
00:22:18What happened here?
00:22:23Did you check her aunt's place?
00:22:25Find out if she was really there
00:22:27that night?
00:22:31It's a long way.
00:22:33My man won't be back
00:22:34until tomorrow
00:22:35at the earliest.
00:22:38Damn it!
00:22:42General,
00:22:43where are you going?
00:22:44To see her.
00:22:45Now.
00:22:49W,
00:22:50the Valentine crest.
00:23:03Awake?
00:23:04Good.
00:23:06I don't like them cold.
00:23:10Here you go.
00:23:12Get off!
00:23:16You bitch.
00:23:17This guy said you were a handful.
00:23:19He was right.
00:23:20I like that.
00:23:31I like that.
00:23:33Keep yelling, sweetheart.
00:23:34There's no one here.
00:23:36Just you and me.
00:23:47A real lady.
00:23:49Worth every penny.
00:23:51Come here.
00:23:52Come here.
00:23:54Why?
00:23:55How did it come to this?
00:23:58I just wanted back
00:24:00what was mine.
00:24:05You dare.
00:24:26Get a carriage.
00:24:28General,
00:24:29she's still Vadriska's wife.
00:24:31Taking her like this.
00:24:32Taking her like this.
00:24:32Is that wise?
00:24:33You think that bastard treats her like a wife?
00:24:38What a pain.
00:24:40First he cancels the party.
00:24:42Now we're rushing back in the rain.
00:24:44Clever move, my lord.
00:24:45Catch the bitch red-handed.
00:24:47Of course.
00:24:48Even if she is pregnant,
00:24:49who knows whose bastard it is.
00:24:51She'll never touch my inheritance.
00:24:53She'll never touch my inheritance.
00:24:57Why have we stopped?
00:24:59Scar alfrancis!
00:25:01Burglars!
00:25:09Protect the master!
00:25:15Cousin!
00:25:16What are you doing here?
00:25:18Three sentences.
00:25:19Explain.
00:25:21I took everyone to the hunting lodge.
00:25:23There must be some misunderstanding.
00:25:24Two.
00:25:25She's my wife.
00:25:26This is a family matter.
00:25:27You shouldn't...
00:25:28Three!
00:25:28General.
00:25:30This is still our house.
00:25:31And you're holding our mistress.
00:25:34Doesn't look right, does it?
00:25:39Not right.
00:25:40Mellis is in charge of my northern supply lines.
00:25:43She was nearly assault in her own home.
00:25:46You and Scar are suspects.
00:25:47I'm taking her in for questioning.
00:25:49Eric, you can't...
00:25:51Edward!
00:25:52Sir!
00:26:01Drive faster!
00:26:03Get to the witch doctor, now!
00:26:14Well, well.
00:26:15Look who's awake.
00:26:17My dear wife,
00:26:18did you really think you could get away?
00:26:20Watching us enjoy your grandfather's fortune
00:26:22must break your heart.
00:26:27We always be ours.
00:26:29But it was always meant to be ours.
00:26:39Meris,
00:26:40as your savior,
00:26:41I think I've earned the right to know the truth about that night.
00:26:45You're...
00:26:45You're right.
00:26:56You're awake.
00:26:57My clothes.
00:26:58You cut your knee pretty badly fighting that bastard.
00:27:01They were soaked in blood.
00:27:02I threw them out.
00:27:10Then who changed me into this?
00:27:14The witch doctor from that day.
00:27:16You know her?
00:27:18So, the woman in the mask that night.
00:27:20That was you, wasn't it?
00:27:24I...
00:27:28Sir, the scout has returned.
00:27:29The woman from that night has been found.
00:27:31It is not Lady Melris.
00:27:33What?
00:27:40What did you just say?
00:27:42General,
00:27:43we found the masked woman from that night.
00:27:45It's Lady Adele Valentine,
00:27:47daughter of Duke Ace.
00:27:48She's right outside.
00:27:57Melris?
00:27:58What on earth are you doing here?
00:28:04You two know each other.
00:28:08Good day, General.
00:28:10I am Adele Valentine.
00:28:13Melris is my cousin.
00:28:16Take them off.
00:28:23There's even a family crest engraved inside the earring.
00:28:27So that's why you came back to the castle looking for me.
00:28:33How did you come by these?
00:28:34Our grandfather had a pair of pearl earrings custom made for every girl in the Valentine family.
00:28:40My cousin likely has a pair very similar to mine, but not quite the same.
00:28:44Where were you a month ago?
00:28:45I had gone to visit my cousin that day, but as it turned out, she happened to be away at
00:28:48her mother's.
00:28:48When I arrived, I saw the castle was hosting a masquerade ball and I was curious.
00:28:51I heard you've been searching for the person from that, so I finally worked up the courage to come to
00:28:55you.
00:28:55I know this is hardly proper, but I...
00:28:58I simply couldn't forget you.
00:28:59How can she spew such nauseating lies without a shred of shame?
00:29:04Lady Melris...
00:29:06Is what she said true?
00:29:14Lady Melris...
00:29:15Is what she said true?
00:29:24Yes, everything Adel said is true.
00:29:31General, you believe me now, don't you?
00:29:38Edward.
00:29:39Sir, escort Lady Adel out, prepare a generous gift to thank her for her candid.
00:29:45What?
00:29:46General, aren't we going to...
00:29:49talk a little longer?
00:30:01Lord Eric, thank you for saving me yesterday.
00:30:06I'll take my leave now.
00:30:08I also hope the General can keep what happened last night to himself.
00:30:11Wait!
00:30:11I saved you only because I have no interest in seeing my business partner come to harm.
00:30:18Business partner?
00:30:19When did I ever agree to that?
00:30:21The North cannot go a single day without grain shipments.
00:30:24Scar is worse than useless, I was counting on you from the start.
00:30:27Are you really going to turn me down?
00:30:29Take it. Come work for me.
00:30:32And I can offer you compensation beyond anything you'd imagine.
00:30:36No.
00:30:37If I stay by his side, my belly will grow day by day.
00:30:39He'll find out about the pregnancy sooner or later.
00:30:41This madman will never let me go.
00:30:42I appreciate the offer, my lord, but I must declare the proposal is already in your hands.
00:30:45I'm sure finding someone capable of understanding it won't be difficult.
00:30:47I told you, I have the power to help you reclaim every last piece of your grandfather's estate.
00:30:50What you at least can consider?
00:30:51Perhaps you're not aware, but that fool Scar could never hold onto an estate of that size.
00:30:56Even the royal family has their eyes on that prize now.
00:30:59What do you think?
00:31:00Will Scar fight to the death to keep it or will he trade your grandfather's legacy for a title and
00:31:04a promotion?
00:31:10Have you made up your mind?
00:31:12If what he says is true, time is running out, I have to take this gamble.
00:31:17But he can never ever find out about the child.
00:31:19I have two conditions.
00:31:21Name them.
00:31:22First, I'll serve as your advisor for two months with full authority over the northern trade routes.
00:31:26After two months, whether I succeed or fail, you will honor your promise and help me reclaim my entire inheritance.
00:31:31Fine.
00:31:32And the second?
00:31:34I...
00:31:36I'd like to receive part of my payment in advance to purchase a residence.
00:31:40Because of Scar?
00:31:41You've seen it yourself.
00:31:42That scum would do anything for money.
00:31:45I need somewhere safe.
00:31:47Scar and his mistress have already been thrown into the dungeon on suspicion of treason and collying with the enemy.
00:31:52You... when did you...
00:31:53While you were unconscious.
00:31:54And I've also had Edward replace every last guard at your castle.
00:31:58He had everything set in motion long before I woke up.
00:32:01Step by step, he's been backing me into a corner.
00:32:04What a ruthless, calculating bastard.
00:32:07You have my gratitude, General, for all the trouble you've gone to.
00:32:13Melris, just how long do you think you can keep running from me?
00:32:22Melris!
00:32:22What were you doing coming out of General Eric's estate today?
00:32:25And wearing his shirt, no less!
00:32:27Am I required to report my whereabouts to you?
00:32:29You don't have to report anything to me.
00:32:31But you're a married woman spending the night in another man's house.
00:32:33Have you no shame?
00:32:34Aren't you worried about dragging the Valentine name through the mud?
00:32:36General Eric is Scar's cousin.
00:32:38I call him my brother-in-law.
00:32:39What's wrong with visiting family?
00:32:40Forget it.
00:32:41I didn't come here to argue.
00:32:42I just wanted to remind you, you're already married.
00:32:44So the woman General Eric has been searching for all across the city can only be me.
00:32:47After all, you didn't come to my house that night, did you?
00:32:49I trust you know exactly what to do, my dear cousin.
00:32:50I know you envy me, being the woman who'll soon be at General Eric's side.
00:32:54Not like you.
00:32:55Your mother died young, and if Grandfather hadn't gone see me and left you a scrap of the estate,
00:32:59even Scar would have been out of your league.
00:33:01So now that I've got something on you, you better fall in line.
00:33:04You dare hit me?
00:33:05I'll help you.
00:33:06But insulting Grandfather, that you deserved.
00:33:09And one more thing.
00:33:11My parents may have died young, but they did teach me one lesson.
00:33:14Do not provoke me, and I will not provoke you.
00:33:17But if you do provoke me, I will return it a hundredfold.
00:33:21Starting tomorrow, I'll use my knee injury as an excuse.
00:33:24I'll tell Eric I can't travel, so he'll have to come here for our discussions.
00:33:29When that happens, you can seize the opportunity yourself.
00:33:33Since when are you so generous?
00:33:35I need someone to distract him.
00:33:37You need a chance to get close to him. We each get what we want.
00:33:40He'd better mean what you say.
00:33:43Your vanity, dear cousin, has just done me an enormous favor.
00:33:54Two months. The northern route must be solid.
00:33:57How much does your garrison need for spring?
00:34:00It's still winter. Why ask that now?
00:34:04To be prepared. Spring floods are coming.
00:34:07Every foot the river rises, the supply boats draw one less foot.
00:34:12One delay, and the northern forts go hungry for three days.
00:34:17Why are you here?
00:34:18My cousin asked me to stay. So I did.
00:34:21I heard you talking about supplies.
00:34:24Grandfather taught me a thing or two.
00:34:26Hope you don't mind.
00:34:27If you have something useful to say, say it.
00:34:31Then I'll be bold.
00:34:33About the northern route, there are only three routes.
00:34:35She stayed up all night memorizing my plan.
00:34:38Word for word.
00:34:39But is he really that attractive?
00:34:40That road is safest, but the terrain is rough.
00:34:43So the caravans can load at the eastern waterway.
00:34:45That way, the relay stations won't be overwhelmed.
00:34:52Just some thoughts, General. Don't laugh at me.
00:34:58Seems the Valiant family has more than one businesswoman.
00:35:02You're too kind, General. I just read a few books. Nothing like my cousin.
00:35:09Lady Melris.
00:35:14Did you arrange Lady Adele for me?
00:35:16As a surprise?
00:35:20Of course not. General, don't joke like that.
00:35:30Just joking. No offence, Lady Adele.
00:35:41But you named three routes.
00:35:43Greyport's got salt inspections.
00:35:46Eastern waterways risky in spring floods.
00:35:48Northern road has bandits.
00:35:49If you had to pick one, which is safest?
00:35:53That sounds simple, but it's not.
00:35:56Weather.
00:35:57Manpower.
00:35:58Military schedules.
00:35:59I haven't figured it out yet.
00:36:04Use all three, General.
00:36:06Spread the risk.
00:36:07If one fails, the others keep the supply going.
00:36:10Three routes cost three times the money.
00:36:13If the Empire just wanted to buy safety,
00:36:15why hire merchants just print more coin?
00:36:18Business is like war.
00:36:20Memorizing tactics doesn't make you a general.
00:36:23He knew.
00:36:24He knew.
00:36:25He knew she was just reciting.
00:36:27I'm sorry.
00:36:28I didn't think it through.
00:36:31That bitch.
00:36:32She left out details on purpose.
00:36:36Made me look like a fool in front of him.
00:36:41Took you long enough.
00:36:43You want to die?
00:36:45Sorry, my lady.
00:36:46I didn't want it to be too hot.
00:36:49Useless.
00:36:50Get out.
00:36:56You like attention?
00:36:58Fine.
00:36:59I'll give you plenty.
00:37:08I wasn't much help just now.
00:37:11So I had the kitchen make coffee.
00:37:13For the general.
00:37:14And my cousin.
00:37:25Cousin.
00:37:25Cousin.
00:37:26You used to love this blend as a child.
00:37:28Still the same, I hope?
00:37:30She knows this coffee gives me cramps.
00:37:32And I'm pregnant.
00:37:34Thank you, cousin, but...
00:37:36I ground the beans myself this morning.
00:37:39You won't even take a sip.
00:37:40After I went to all that trouble.
00:37:42You misunderstand.
00:37:42I just take my coffee, Weesa.
00:37:44More sugar.
00:37:46Fine.
00:37:46I'll get you some.
00:37:47Wait here.
00:37:58If I spill it, she'll say I challenge her.
00:38:01But where can I pour it with him watching?
00:38:06General.
00:38:09Next time you don't want something, knock it over.
00:38:12In front of me, you don't have to spare anyone's feelings.
00:38:16Cousin, here's your...
00:38:19General, you drank hers too?
00:38:28Sorry. Let me clean that up.
00:38:33Scatter.
00:38:34Then gather.
00:38:39I've got it!
00:38:40Someone said,
00:38:41Give me a lever and I'll move the world.
00:38:43Why not find a lever for the northern route too?
00:38:48You mean Silverbush?
00:38:50Right.
00:38:51Greyport can't handle big wagons,
00:38:53but it can take sealed crates and small boats.
00:38:56Eastern waterways risky in spring,
00:38:58but light boats can make it.
00:39:00Northern Road runs empty carriages and guards.
00:39:04By the time anyone notices, the grains already are north.
00:39:07So we split everything into three.
00:39:09Send to Silverburg first.
00:39:10The enemy sees three fake roads,
00:39:14but the real road they never see coming.
00:39:18A diversion!
00:39:19Brilliant!
00:39:20You really are the one I chose, Melris.
00:39:23You're too kind.
00:39:25There she goes again.
00:39:27Stealing the show.
00:39:28I should have made her drink that coffee.
00:39:30General!
00:39:31Your neck!
00:39:32And your hands!
00:39:35Don't scratch!
00:39:38That looks like a nettle rash.
00:39:40Scratching all these scars.
00:39:42You put something in the coffee.
00:39:51You put something in the coffee.
00:39:54I didn't, I swear!
00:39:58Get a physician.
00:39:59If there's anything in that coffee that shouldn't be there,
00:40:01the dungeon is the least of your worries.
00:40:03General, I was only trying to...
00:40:05Get out!
00:40:09General, until the physician arrives,
00:40:11the itching will get worse.
00:40:12Let me make you a salve.
00:40:14My grandfather taught me some remedies.
00:40:16Fine, you try.
00:40:19Quick!
00:40:20Get me plantain, kalimdala, rose water,
00:40:22and some cold cream bakes.
00:40:24Oh, my God.
00:40:29Out!
00:40:30Out!
00:40:30Close the door.
00:40:45General, the salve is ready.
00:40:48Then what are you waiting for?
00:40:49Come here, help me put it on.
00:40:51But you said you don't like people touching you.
00:40:54Once is strange.
00:40:55Twice is familiar.
00:40:57Not the first time.
00:40:58Still shy?
00:40:59Who's shy?
00:41:09Have to admit,
00:41:11this body,
00:41:12those muscles,
00:41:15it's deadly.
00:41:20Had enough?
00:41:24What? I...
00:41:27Your salve works.
00:41:29Itching's almost gone.
00:41:30But your technique is terrible.
00:41:35General!
00:41:37The rash is definitely from stinging nettle.
00:41:39But the coffee is clean.
00:41:41No poison.
00:41:43What?
00:41:58No poison.
00:42:00No poison.
00:42:01Whatsoever.
00:42:02But the handle of this cup.
00:42:05There's trace amounts of stinging nettle pulp.
00:42:09General, you heard him.
00:42:11No poison in the coffee.
00:42:12I was just trying to be nice.
00:42:13How could I possibly want to hurt you?
00:42:15It must be the kitchen staff.
00:42:16They handled wild vegetables without washing their hands.
00:42:18Then they touched the cups.
00:42:20That's possible.
00:42:21Young nettle can be boiled and eaten.
00:42:22Some servants use it as cheap greens.
00:42:24Cousin, this is your castle.
00:42:26Aren't you going to question your own servants?
00:42:28If someone tried to poison the general,
00:42:30that's a death sentence.
00:42:38The pulp is dry by now.
00:42:40No one saw her do it.
00:42:42Even if we investigate, she'll blame the kitchen.
00:42:45General, the physician already said there's no poison.
00:42:47You're not seriously hurt.
00:42:49Why don't we leave it here?
00:42:50Otherwise, someone might use this to sow discord in the household.
00:42:54Cousin!
00:42:55Are you still accusing me?
00:42:59Just thinking out loud.
00:43:01Don't read too much into it, cousin.
00:43:06My lady!
00:43:07Duke Isles has arrived!
00:43:12Oh, Duke Isles!
00:43:14Father!
00:43:17My dear girl, don't cry.
00:43:19Tell me, who made you cry?
00:43:21Father, someone tried to say I poisoned General Eric's coffee.
00:43:24Eric!
00:43:24My daughter is spoiled but never dare poison anyone.
00:43:27This must be a misunderstanding.
00:43:29Don't you agree?
00:43:34The same Valentine blood.
00:43:36How can they be so different?
00:43:39Duke, don't worry.
00:43:41This happened in Lady Melris's castle.
00:43:43She's not pressing charges.
00:43:44Neither am I.
00:43:46Good.
00:43:47A misunderstanding then.
00:43:49Let's move on.
00:43:50No!
00:43:51We can't just let this go!
00:43:53Her servants must be the ones who did this.
00:43:55We should question every single one of them!
00:43:57Shut your mouth, Adele!
00:43:59If you want Eric, don't act like a fool in front of him.
00:44:02Know when to stop.
00:44:04Understand?
00:44:06General, I'm also here on the Emperor's orders.
00:44:08He's concerned.
00:44:09You locked up Vanlant Scar for treason, but he's still a titled noble.
00:44:13You didn't file any paperwork with the court.
00:44:15That puts the Emperor in a difficult position.
00:44:17It's a delicate matter.
00:44:18I am a witness.
00:44:19The man who broke into my castle admitted Scar sent him to assault me.
00:44:22Lady Melris, the Emperor is sympathetic to your ordeal, but one woman's testimony isn't enough to convict a Vittart.
00:44:28Besides, you're still husband and wife.
00:44:29Wouldn't it be more dignified to find a compromise?
00:44:32No compromise.
00:44:34Lady Melris, the Emperor's wish is-
00:44:36You can tell the Emperor this.
00:44:38I may be a merchant's daughter, but I won't be bullied.
00:44:40If he wants me to drop this, Susker returns everything my grandfather left me, and he divorces me.
00:44:45What?
00:44:47I agree.
00:44:54The Valentine estate is tied to the Northern supply route.
00:44:57It's a matter of Imperial security.
00:44:59Scar couldn't even protect his own wife.
00:45:01How can he be trusted with such assets?
00:45:03Better put it in the right hands.
00:45:04You too.
00:45:06I'll convey your proposal to the Emperor.
00:45:09Thank you, Duke.
00:45:19Melris, you're a clever woman.
00:45:20If you help Adele marry General Eric, I'll put in a good word for you with the Emperor.
00:45:25You're very invested in your daughter's marriage, Duke.
00:45:27The whole city knows Eric is looking for the masked woman from that night.
00:45:30My daughter claimed it was her.
00:45:31The Duke's honour is at stake.
00:45:33So it doesn't matter who it really was.
00:45:35It has to be Adele.
00:45:38I knew you'd understand.
00:45:46After the Duke left, things were calm.
00:45:49I put everything into the Mortham supply plan.
00:46:00Less than a month, our plan was ready.
00:46:03The first Tushed shipment was about to leave.
00:46:12Looks like the test run worked.
00:46:18Melris, I want to throw a banquet.
00:46:21A banquet?
00:46:23Who should we invite?
00:46:24You handle it.
00:46:33Who to invite?
00:46:35The Emperor hasn't agreed to my terms yet.
00:46:37He's still unhappy about Eric's actions.
00:46:39If I push too hard, it might backfire.
00:46:47I'll need the Duke to speak on my behalf.
00:46:53Beth?
00:46:55My lady, what do you need?
00:47:01Deliver this to Duke Isles' estate.
00:47:03Put it in his hands personally.
00:47:19Sorry for the poor hospitality.
00:47:22Please forgive me.
00:47:23Lady Melris, I can hardly believe it.
00:47:26You've opened the northern supply route in such a short time.
00:47:28You flatter me, my lord.
00:47:30None of this would be possible without General Eric's trust.
00:47:34And your support behind the scenes.
00:47:36Merris.
00:47:37Uncle.
00:47:38The General isn't here yet?
00:47:40He's dealing with urgent military matters.
00:47:43He asked me to open the evening in his place.
00:47:45A married woman, acting like she's the lady of the house.
00:47:48How does she have the nerve?
00:47:52General.
00:47:53The banquet has started.
00:47:55Aren't you going?
00:47:56Better to let it out here than lose control in front of everyone.
00:48:05Tonight, I want every noble in the capital to see what Melris is worth.
00:48:09The northern supply plan, plus the support of the aristocracy.
00:48:12Even if the emperor resists, he'll have to let her take back what's hers.
00:48:15General, you've gone to great lengths for her.
00:48:19She deserves it.
00:48:20General Eric is just so busy.
00:48:22General Eric is just so busy.
00:48:22He insists on doing everything himself, but he told me tonight's banquet.
00:48:27Nominally for celebration, but actually...
00:48:29Actually what, Adele?
00:48:31Don't stop there.
00:48:32Actually, it's for me.
00:48:34Is he going to propose?
00:48:36Oh, don't say that.
00:48:38But...
00:48:38Soon.
00:48:40Unlike some people.
00:48:41Can't even keep her own husband.
00:48:43Her inheritance is slipping away.
00:48:45How pathetic.
00:48:48Same old lines.
00:48:49No imagination.
00:48:50Cousin.
00:48:51Once the general and I are engaged, do you really think you can keep hanging around him?
00:48:55A married woman?
00:48:56If that happens, I'll congratulate you.
00:48:58In another month, my partnership with the general ends.
00:49:01He'll be all yours.
00:49:02What did you say?
00:49:07Say that again.
00:49:09General!
00:49:10You're finally here!
00:49:17Who invited her?
00:49:25Who invited her?
00:49:28My cousin meant well.
00:49:30She wrote to me herself.
00:49:32Asked me to come.
00:49:33If I've upset the general, I'll leave.
00:49:36General!
00:49:38You...
00:49:43Damn it.
00:49:44He didn't even look at me.
00:49:49Why did you invite that woman?
00:49:53You said I could arrange the guest list.
00:49:55Not her!
00:49:55A liar.
00:49:57The Duke is the Emperor's right hand.
00:49:59I couldn't not invite him and he'd bring her.
00:50:03So you sold me out to get your inheritance back?
00:50:05Yes.
00:50:06If that's how you see it.
00:50:08But do you really want the Emperor to think you're a threat?
00:50:11Distrust you?
00:50:13Even turn against you?
00:50:14Then you'd lose everything.
00:50:16Just like me.
00:50:18You're worried about me?
00:50:20I'm not.
00:50:21I just want to know how you'll help me get my inheritance back.
00:50:23The two months are almost out.
00:50:27Melris.
00:50:29Why do you keep pushing me away?
00:50:48General Eric, where did you go?
00:50:49I've been looking everywhere for you.
00:50:53I've been looking everywhere for you.
00:50:55I've been looking everywhere for you.
00:50:59I've been looking everywhere for you.
00:51:02My daughter is carrying your child.
00:51:04Is this how you treat her?
00:51:08What did you say?
00:51:18Eric!
00:51:19My daughter is pregnant with your child!
00:51:23How much more humiliation must she endure?
00:51:33Impossible.
00:51:38You don't believe it?
00:51:40You don't believe it?
00:51:40Dr. Sear!
00:51:47Lady Adele, if you please.
00:51:51Yes.
00:51:54Eric, let's be honest.
00:51:56We both know Adele isn't a woman from that night.
00:52:00But do you really want the truth to come out?
00:52:02Even if you could prove she's lying?
00:52:06Would you dare?
00:52:07The Emperor himself wouldn't dare speak to me like that.
00:52:10Then go ahead.
00:52:10Let everyone know that Maris, a married woman, committed adultery.
00:52:13She won't get her inheritance back.
00:52:15She'll be lucky to stay alive.
00:52:16Marry Adele.
00:52:17Our houses unite.
00:52:19The Emperor would welcome it.
00:52:20It's best for everyone.
00:52:21Even for Maris.
00:52:23Fine.
00:52:25Everyone!
00:52:26Lady Adele's urine is pale yellow, slightly cloudy after standing a white precipitation forms.
00:52:31This indicates pregnancy.
00:52:33Early stage, but 70% certain.
00:52:48I see.
00:52:52I agree.
00:52:54Two weeks from now I will marry Lady Adele.
00:53:20I keep telling myself he's just a partner, a killer, a madman I should stay away from.
00:53:29I hate being light.
00:53:30But the memories keep coming back.
00:53:32I can't stop them.
00:53:36I can't believe General Eric proposed to Lady Adele tonight.
00:53:41And the wedding is in two weeks.
00:53:47I heard she's already pregnant.
00:53:49That's why it's so rushed.
00:53:51The Emperor himself will attend.
00:53:52I must prepare for a gift.
00:53:54This is all my fault.
00:53:58If I hadn't dragged him into that dance, he wouldn't have been searching for that woman.
00:54:02Adele wouldn't have had a chance.
00:54:04Now the Duke is threatening him.
00:54:06Adele is pretending to be pregnant.
00:54:08He's trapped!
00:54:10You're the one I chose, Melis.
00:54:12No.
00:54:13I let you down.
00:54:16My lady, you haven't eaten in two weeks.
00:54:19You'll make yourself ill.
00:54:23I've made up my mind.
00:54:25I'm going to see Eric.
00:54:26But soon...
00:54:29You may have to leave this castle.
00:54:31Whatever you decide, my lady, I shouldn't know the rest.
00:54:34You may have to leave this castle.
00:54:39You may have to leave this castle.
00:54:40Thank you, Basil.
00:54:46This all started because of me.
00:54:49Even if they call me a whore.
00:54:51Even if I lose any hope of getting my inheritance back.
00:54:55I have to tell him the truth.
00:55:02Eric, whatever it costs me.
00:55:05This time, I'll face it with you.
00:55:08I won't let you carry this alone.
00:55:13This isn't right.
00:55:15Stop the carriage.
00:55:16Why are we going this way?
00:55:19Took you long enough to notice, my lady.
00:55:22You work for Adele.
00:55:27The lady knew you'd go to the general.
00:55:37The box fell out. Should we get it?
00:55:39Who cares? The lady only wants her.
00:55:44Women wants that general.
00:55:46What's he got that I don't?
00:55:48The lady won't even look at me.
00:55:50Hmph. You?
00:55:52If anyone, it should be me.
00:55:54Maybe that kid in her belly is mine.
00:55:57She called me to her room plenty of times.
00:56:00She called me too.
00:56:02Who knows who the father really is?
00:56:04She's sleeping with her own guards?
00:56:07And she wants to marry Eric.
00:56:09She's insane.
00:56:17Cousin.
00:56:18You slapped me before.
00:56:20Now we're even.
00:56:28Adele, the truth always comes out.
00:56:31Keep telling yourself that.
00:56:33Once the Emperor proves, nothing else matters.
00:56:36Oh, I have good news for you.
00:56:38You should thank Eric and my father.
00:56:40The Emperor just signed over all the Valentine property to you.
00:56:46Now what will you do to the woman who made you lose everything?
00:56:52Enjoy yourself.
00:56:53I don't want anyone knowing she's here until after the wedding.
00:56:57Melris.
00:57:04My dear, we meet again.
00:57:08Adele told me everything.
00:57:10You and Eric.
00:57:12No wonder he's always protecting you.
00:57:14If you're carrying his bastard, I hope it's born as mad as he is.
00:57:19Mad or not, at least it won't be a fool like you.
00:57:22Used and thrown away without even knowing it.
00:57:24What do you mean?
00:57:25Kill me and you'll hang.
00:57:28I won't kill you.
00:57:29I'll make you wish you were dead.
00:57:32Then Adele defeat me and blames you.
00:57:34You're the perfect scapegoat.
00:57:36What do you think the Emperor will do then?
00:57:40I've got nothing left.
00:57:42I'm a dead man walking.
00:57:44Taking you with me?
00:57:45Worth it!
00:57:50Damn it.
00:57:51Ever since she left.
00:57:53Even killing prisoners only helps for a moment now.
00:57:57General.
00:57:58Just need the final route map for Silverbirth.
00:58:00Lady Melesh was supposed to bring it this morning.
00:58:02She didn't come?
00:58:03No.
00:58:04And she didn't send word either.
00:58:08General!
00:58:09Please save my lady!
00:58:11What happened to her?
00:58:12She left yesterday with a box.
00:58:15Said she was coming to you to tell you everything.
00:58:19She...
00:58:20General.
00:58:21I found this on the road to your estate.
00:58:24Inside...
00:58:24An earring.
00:58:25Looks like the one Lady Adele wears.
00:58:28That's it.
00:58:29That's the box my lady was carrying.
00:58:33The road to my estate also leads to Adele's villa.
00:58:38Move.
00:58:39Now.
00:58:45Who goes there?
00:58:46This is Duke's property!
00:58:47This is Duke's property!
00:58:47This is Duke's property!
00:58:54Stay outside.
00:59:00Eric!
00:59:02Look!
00:59:03Isn't it beautiful?
00:59:06Where is Melris?
00:59:08I don't know what you're talking about.
00:59:10Eric, I'm your fiancé.
00:59:11I'm carrying your child.
00:59:13Why do you always think of her?
00:59:15I won't ask again.
00:59:17Eric!
00:59:17This is a Duke's castle.
00:59:18You want to search it?
00:59:19Then follow the rules.
00:59:21Hand over your sword.
00:59:28That's better.
00:59:30Come, my dear fiancé.
00:59:31Let me show you around our new home.
00:59:42Ah, you bitch!
00:59:44Look, this is the nursery.
00:59:46For our child.
00:59:47Do you like blue or pink?
00:59:48He'll be just as handsome as you, I'm sure.
00:59:56Just rats in the wine cellar.
01:00:02Open that carpet.
01:00:03Now.
01:00:11Look.
01:00:11Bitch.
01:00:14Let me give you some air before you die.
01:00:25Make a sound and I'll kill you now.
01:00:34See?
01:00:36Nothing.
01:00:37Just rats.
01:00:45Light it up!
01:00:48There's someone down there.
01:00:50Where are they?
01:00:53Die!
01:00:57Eric.
01:00:58Even if you are my fiancé, treating me like this, the Emperor himself wouldn't side with you.
01:01:08Help me.
01:01:10Help me.
01:01:19It's wood.
01:01:21Eric!
01:01:23Melis is a married woman!
01:01:25Going crazy over her!
01:01:30The whole Empire will laugh at you for taking Saka's leftovers!
01:01:34No!
01:01:36No!
01:01:38No!
01:01:38No!
01:01:39No, no, no!
01:01:48Melis!
01:01:50Eric!
01:02:06Cousin, you really can't stay away from this whore, can you?
01:02:12You pathetic fool, pointing a knife at me
01:02:18Still looking down on me, after I defeat you, I'll have my fun with her, then she's dead too
01:02:25Enough talk
01:02:30Catch, Eric!
01:02:37Shut up, bitch!
01:02:43Cousin, you're a fool
01:02:45Throwing your life away for a woman
01:03:01No, don't kill me, cousin, we're family, think of your aunt
01:03:06Get out, you're not worth the effort
01:03:12Look out!
01:03:14My god
01:03:22Zelda
01:03:24But you are
01:03:26It's fine, it doesn't hurt
01:03:39Thank god
01:03:40You're alive
01:03:41You idiot
01:03:43Why do you always show up when I need you?
01:03:45You kept pushing me away, but after I took you from Ska that night, I knew it was you
01:03:53How?
01:03:55Because you're different
01:03:58I won the war in the north, but my regiment, Crimson Raven, was wiped out
01:04:06Since that day, I've never really left that battlefield
01:04:13Everyone and everything will rot in my eyes
01:04:20And I helped you that night
01:04:31Of course, killing those prisoners helps too
01:04:33Revenge for my men
01:04:35The visions stopped for a while
01:04:37The rumors
01:04:38They said you kill for fun
01:04:40It's because of this
01:04:42They had my brother's blood on their hands
01:04:44They deserve to die
01:04:45I hid from you because I thought you were a monster
01:04:50Maybe I am, but if I hadn't met you that night, my world would be nothing but hell
01:05:02You've suffered enough
01:05:09My dear son-in-law
01:05:11The wedding is about to start
01:05:13And here you are hiding in a cellar with another man's wife
01:05:16How unbecoming
01:05:22Duke, is this your wedding party or a coup?
01:05:26What do you think, general?
01:05:29The emperor himself is officiating
01:05:32Only you could draw him here
01:05:34Your target is the emperor
01:05:36Two choices
01:05:38Put on the suit
01:05:39Marry my daughter
01:05:41I promise Lady Melris will live
01:05:45Or you both die here
01:05:47Fine, but you swear she won't be harmed
01:05:49Of course
01:05:52Take the groom to change
01:06:00Get rid of the woman
01:06:01Cleanly
01:06:11Sorry, my lady
01:06:12Nothing personal
01:06:14You're just in the way
01:06:31Forgive me, my lady
01:06:32The general had me wait outside the castle
01:06:33He guessed something like this might happen
01:06:41I won't kill you
01:06:44But at the wedding
01:06:44In front of the emperor
01:06:46You'll say what you said in the carriage
01:06:48Every word
01:06:50Lady Adele will have our heads
01:06:52She was going to kill you anyway
01:06:54After I'm dead
01:06:55Would she leave two witnesses alive?
01:06:58Fine
01:07:00Fine
01:07:02Time is short, Edward
01:07:03Split up, you take them to the imperial guard
01:07:05Wait outside the chapel
01:07:06I'll go ahead
01:07:06My lady, that's too dangerous
01:07:07If the general finds out
01:07:22These ceremonial guards are wearing battle armor
01:07:25The duke's men
01:07:28Erik
01:07:28Are you unwell?
01:07:34Your majesty, the general is merely tired
01:07:37Wedding nerves, perhaps
01:07:40Remember, Melis is still in my hands
01:07:43Ruin this wedding
01:07:44She won't see tomorrow
01:07:47General Erik Fosenheit
01:07:49Do you take Lady Adele to be your wedded wife?
01:07:53To have and to hold?
01:07:54He does not!
01:08:10Who is that?
01:08:11How dare they interrupt the wedding
01:08:13In front of his majesty?
01:08:21Sorry, Lady Adele
01:08:22He's already taken
01:08:28Who are you?
01:08:29How dare you?
01:08:31Guards!
01:08:32Remove this woman!
01:08:35Impressive
01:08:37You've saved me enough times
01:08:39Let me save you for once
01:08:45Adele
01:08:45Erik doesn't belong to you
01:08:48No, it's you
01:08:49The whore
01:08:50Come to seal another woman's wedding
01:08:51Erik, come here
01:08:52I am the one you're looking for
01:08:53Or I'm carrying your child
01:08:54Lie often enough
01:08:55And you start to believe it yourself
01:08:58Lady Adele was never at that massacre
01:09:00She lied
01:09:01She always wanted me to cover for her
01:09:03Because my aunt had something on me
01:09:04That's how she killed everyone
01:09:06Even the general
01:09:06Lies!
01:09:07You have an earring
01:09:08So do I
01:09:09That proves nothing!
01:09:10And I'm pregnant with the general's child
01:09:12But that no one can deny
01:09:16Really?
01:09:20Gentlemen
01:09:22In front of his majesty and the court
01:09:24Tell us
01:09:25Who really fathered Lady Adele's child
01:09:30It was me!
01:09:31No, him!
01:09:32Your majesty
01:09:32Spare us!
01:09:34She called both of us to her chambers
01:09:35We don't know whose it is!
01:09:40Duke Isles!
01:09:41This is the daughter you raised
01:09:43How much else have you been hiding from me?
01:09:44My daughter just wanted to marry
01:09:46What harm was there?
01:09:47But since you're all so eager to humiliate us
01:09:49Your majesty
01:09:50Let's continue the celebration
01:09:52Since my daughter's wedding is off
01:09:53How about a coronation instead?
01:09:58Your majesty
01:10:01You trusted that mad dog from the north too much
01:10:04The capital's finances
01:10:06The noble marriages
01:10:06The palace defences
01:10:07Who controls all of it?
01:10:10My house
01:10:11Yes, this is treason
01:10:13History is written by the victor
01:10:15I wanted to use the marriage to control the general
01:10:18Take my time
01:10:18The plans change
01:10:20You think you can protect anyone?
01:10:39Lady Malice already won the imperial guard
01:10:41Your own men are on their way
01:11:03Your fight is with me
01:11:12Arrest them
01:11:13Every last one of the traitors
01:11:19I should be the one standing beside him
01:11:22It's all because of you, Malice
01:11:26Die, bitch!
01:11:45The pride should have been me
01:11:50Eric!
01:11:56The pride should have been me
01:12:00Eric!
01:12:03Eric!
01:12:09The general has a strong constitution
01:12:11He'll live
01:12:12But he needs months of rest
01:12:14The wounds are deep
01:12:18Why did you have to be so stupid?
01:12:21Throwing yourself in front of a knife for me?
01:12:29You even cry beautifully
01:12:30You're awake!
01:12:32Stop joking at a time like this
01:12:33I'm here
01:12:37I'm not afraid to die
01:12:38The only thing I'm afraid of
01:12:40Is you ignoring me
01:12:42If you ever throw yourself in front of a knife again
01:12:45And I really will ignore you
01:12:46Malice, will you marry me?
01:12:57Yes, I'll marry you
01:13:00You said it
01:13:01No taking it back
01:13:03But after I interrupted the wedding
01:13:05Everyone knows I slept with you while I was still married
01:13:08The emperor doesn't approve of me
01:13:10I'm afraid
01:13:10As long as you're willing nothing else matters
01:13:26Oh, I almost forgot to tell you something
01:13:37A secret
01:13:38What secret?
01:13:45I'm pregnant too
01:13:48What did you just say?
01:13:50I said I'm pregnant
01:13:52Yours
01:13:54How long?
01:13:55Since...
01:13:56That first night
01:13:57That's my boy
01:13:58Why didn't you tell me sooner?
01:14:00I was afraid you'd think I used you
01:14:03That I just wanted your seed
01:14:05Idiot
01:14:07My child
01:14:09I'll raise him myself
01:14:12Then you'd better get well soon
01:14:14For him
01:14:15I'll be out of bed tomorrow
01:14:19Don't be silly
01:14:20The witch doctor said months of rest
01:14:23Then you stay with me
01:14:27Alright
