Short filmTranscript
00:00I am the last princess of the Siren people. Six years ago, I saved a human man. I loved him,
00:06and I gave him my kingdom secrets.
00:08He repaid me by sealing my voice with a poisoned needle, then led his army to slaughter all three thousand
00:14of my people. He thought I was dead. He was wrong.
00:19Lord Caius crushed four kingdoms before he even turned thirty.
00:22Of course, he once infiltrated the Sea Clan as a spy all on his own. It's because of him that
00:27our kingdom is this powerful. That's why Seraphina had to marry him.
00:35Today, we gather here to bind two souls together. Do you swear upon your life to guard her kingdom as
00:46you once swore other vow?
00:48What did you say?
01:02Do you remember what you said, kneeling before me?
01:08You said, if your kingdom ever falls, it will only be because I died first.
01:13You didn't die, but my kingdom fell. My people died. My father died.
01:20You owe my people their lives, Caius. I'm here to collect.
01:24His crown, his alliances, his woman, his reputation. Six years ago, he took everything from me.
01:30Now I want him to watch as it all shatters piece by piece.
01:34But first, let me show you how he stole my entire world.
01:51Please. Hunters are after me. I'm not one of them. I'm who they want to kill. Please.
02:01Hold on.
02:26You're safe here. My name is Vesper.
02:29Please.
02:29You're safe here. My name is Vesper.
02:29Vespa, you saved my life.
02:36Your injuries were too severe.
02:39Any later and I couldn't have helped.
02:46General.
02:49The intelligence about the Siren Clan is all confirmed.
02:53Her voice can heal fatal wounds.
02:55One song can bring a dying man back to his feet.
02:58If we obtain this power, battlefield casualties will cease to exist.
03:02An entire army will be impervious to blades and arrows, coordinates to follow.
03:07Give me time. I will obtain everything.
03:12Sleep. You're safe here.
03:15That was the first time I touched his face.
03:18I thought the heavens had sent him to me.
03:21He touched my face too later, but his other hand was holding a needle.
03:25The Western Wall stands roughly 40 feet high.
03:29With a gap.
03:30Passable at low tide.
03:34The tribe numbers approximately 3,000.
03:37No standing army.
03:39Absolute trust in outsiders.
03:42No defenses.
03:43That human.
03:45You trust him too much.
03:46Father.
03:48He's different from the others.
03:51I hope you're right.
04:03Just one piece missing.
04:06Where is the forbidden place?
04:09This is my home.
04:11I've never brought anyone here before.
04:13I don't even know why I brought you.
04:17Because you trust me.
04:19It's too dangerous out there.
04:21Hunters everywhere.
04:21I'm afraid.
04:22If hunters ever find this place,
04:24if your kingdom ever falls,
04:27it will only be because I died first.
04:30Vesper, I swear it.
04:33I believe you.
04:37One kiss.
04:38One location.
04:40Next step?
04:41She brings me there herself.
04:43Not hard.
04:44She already believes everything.
04:48Caius! Come on!
04:51He said he'd protect me with his life.
04:54I believed him.
04:55Then he asked me to open the door I had never let any outsider see.
04:59I opened it.
05:05What lies behind this door?
05:08Only my father and I have ever entered.
05:13Caius!
05:14Three hunter ships have been spotted beyond the coastline.
05:19Three of them.
05:21Vesper, listen to me.
05:22If they find your tribe's source of power,
05:24they will destroy it first.
05:27Let me see it.
05:30I need to know how to defend it.
05:32Those three ships were his doing.
05:36He manufactured the fear,
05:38then pretended to be the only way out.
05:46Come inside.
05:52My God.
06:02This is the source of our tribe's voice.
06:05As long as it endures, we endure.
06:07General.
06:08I found it.
06:09A thousand times larger than I imagined.
06:12This isn't a weapon.
06:13It's an entire sea.
06:15If we control it, no force in the world will stand against us.
06:18Come further.
06:21There's more.
06:21A tracking stone.
06:24The general's sorcerers will sense it.
06:26From this moment on,
06:28they know the location.
06:31Caius?
06:32I was looking at the patterns.
06:34They're beautiful.
06:35Show me more.
06:44With you here, I'm not afraid.
06:48That was the last time I felt safe.
06:58Will you stay?
07:02Caius?
07:04Caius?
07:05Yes.
07:08I'll always stay.
07:11Do you swear?
07:14I swear.
07:16Then I have nothing to fear.
07:22Venom from a deep sea jellyfish.
07:24One drop.
07:25And a siren's vocal cords are sealed permanently.
07:28The general's orders.
07:29Capture her alive.
07:31Seal her voice.
07:32Bring her back.
07:32A siren without a voice is more useful than a dead one.
07:36Now is the moment.
07:38She won't wake.
07:39One drop is enough.
07:40Once.
07:46Excuse me.
07:53Hello.
08:17princess hunters coming from the sea they've sealed every entrance

11:28Keep looking.
11:53I'm sorry.
12:32To be continued...
12:52To be fools, it will only be because I died first.
12:56Vesper, I swear it.
13:01You chose to believe all of them.
13:06Liv.
13:08Take your voice away, you.
13:17No whore singing, no!
13:30Princess, you're alive.
13:35Princess, you're alive.
13:38Princess, you're alive.
13:43How many are low?
13:45Seventeen here.
13:47A few more in the western of this.
13:50Perhaps...
13:50Thirty?
13:52The children.
13:53She hasn't spoken since that day.
13:56Not because she can't.
13:58Because she doesn't dare.
14:00I know.
14:01I didn't dare you, though.
14:04Took me two years before I dared to open my mouth again.
14:07But we have to open our mouths.
14:09Not to sing.
14:10To make the ones who did this hear us.
14:14How long have you been waiting here?
14:17Three years.
14:19No more waiting.
14:22Caius, you said I was asking the wrong question.
14:25Fine.
14:26Now it's your turn to answer mine.
14:28One by one.
14:31One by one.
14:43I spent three months.
14:45Princess Seraphine, his future queen.
14:47She trusts anyone who is kind to her.
14:49Exactly like me.
14:50Six years ago.
14:55Lyra!
14:56You saved my life!
15:00My lord.
15:01Princess Seraphine has arrived.
15:03She brought a cousin with her.
15:04Named of Lyra.
15:06A cousin?
15:10A distant relative.
15:12Very quiet.
15:13Insists on personally attending the princess.
15:24Caius.
15:25You've finally come.
15:32Hello.
15:34My name is Lyra.
15:37Hello.
15:39My name is Lyra.
15:41Impossible.
15:42You're dead.
15:44You should be dead.
15:45I personally...
15:53My lord, your hand is shaking.
15:55Is the palace too cold?
16:00A little.
16:03Lyra is the person I trust most.
16:05I'm sure you'll like her too.
16:11He knew it was me.
16:12I knew he knew.
16:13But he couldn't say so because that would mean explaining how he recognizes a siren princess
16:18who died.
16:19And I didn't need him to say it out loud.
16:21I only needed him to be afraid.
16:23That woman!
16:24Investigator.
16:25Now!
16:25I want everything before tomorrow.
16:27My lord, she's only the princess's cousin.
16:29I said now!
16:38First one.
16:40You're Seraphine's cousin?
16:42You walk like a fisherman's daughter.
16:43Whatever you wear as it looks borrowed.
16:45I was the one who introduced Lord Caius to this court.
16:48Seraphine is marrying him because of me.
16:49Everyone in this palace owes me something.
16:52Including you.
16:53Remember your place.
16:55Yes, my lady.
17:00She said she introduced Caius to this court.
17:04And she must know a great deal.
17:09Lyra, sing us a song.
17:10You can't?
17:11Of course.
17:12Look at these hands.
17:14How many dishes have you washed to make them look like that?
17:23My lady is right.
17:25I can't really sing.
17:27Only just a little.
17:33I poisoned my husband.
17:37Three years ago.
17:39He wanted to leave me.
17:42I put poison in his wine.
17:44I watched him die.
17:46I don't know why I'm saying this.
17:47I can't stop.
17:50Lyra.
17:51I'm frightened.
17:53Don't be afraid, your highness.
17:55I'm here.
17:59She's doing exactly what I did.
18:01Step by step.
18:02Get close.
18:03Earn their trust.
18:04And then.
18:05She didn't come back to kill me.
18:06She came to destroy everything I own.
18:08One piece at a time.
18:10Right before my eyes.
18:11And I can't tell anyone who she is.
18:13Because that would mean confessing that six years ago, I slaughtered an entire people.
18:20Sir.
18:21Just got word.
18:22The patrol caught 17 stray Syrians near the entrance to the Singing Sea.
18:27Who's leading them?
18:29An old man with a broken tail.
18:31They seemed to be waiting for someone.
18:35We've put them all in the underground sea prison.
18:40Sealed their mouths.
18:42Lock it down.
18:43No one in the palace is to know.
18:45No one in the palace is to know.
18:47Even Lady Lyra.
18:49I said.
18:51No one.
18:53After those deep sea beasts were wiped out, the shipping lanes became ten times safer.
18:58All thanks to Lord Caius.
19:03I hid the siren pearls I looted in the dry well in the western suburbs.
19:08I tore them off a siren child who wasn't even dead yet.
19:11Oh no.
19:14Oh no.
19:15I staged that riot to swiddle more military fun.
19:20Help me.
19:22Why can't I...
19:24What did you do to him?
19:26My man.
19:28I only poured a cup of tea.
19:30He wanted to confess.
19:32Play this trick once.
19:33That's enough.
19:35Stop.
19:35The names on the list aren't all dead yet, my lord.
19:39What are you afraid of?
19:41I'm afraid you'll throw away your own life in the end.
19:44My life.
19:45It died that night, six years ago.
19:56Father and brother wrote again.
19:58Every letter asks when Caius will send their funds.
20:00Not a word about how I'm doing.
20:05Lyra.
20:06Do you think there's anyone left in this world worth trusting?
20:10There is.
20:11As long as that person has never lied to you.
20:14What about you?
20:16Have you lied to me?
20:18I will never hurt you, your highness.
20:21My lord.
20:21The order for Elias.
20:22The court is already pressing for it.
20:24Keep him.
20:25But yesterday he admitted in public, embezzling military funds, staging the riot.
20:29He's stolen goods.
20:30But stolen goods can be more useful than clean men.
20:33Once this storm at sea passes, let him take the form.
20:35You're saying?
20:37Among Princess Serafina's cousins, there's no woman called Lyra?
20:41Yes, my lord.
20:42According to records, that distant branch died out in the plague ten years ago.
20:45This Lyra, her identity is a mystery.
20:46So even her identity is borrowed.
20:48She's using Serafina.
20:52Lyra.
20:53This officer would like to ask you a few questions about your hometown.
20:56For instance, how did that plague begin?
20:59The plague?
21:00I only remember seeing the officer at the coast three years ago.
21:03You were with your men.
21:05Hunting down escaped operations.
21:07So my lord never gave up hunting the sirens.
21:10Is it because six years ago you didn't kill cleanly enough?
21:12Afraid they'll come back for your life?
21:14What nonsense are you spouting?
21:15People in the palace are talking.
21:17Our hero sends been living in fear all along.
21:19Why else send so many men to guard the post of the Bimza?
21:23Enough.
21:24Get out.
21:32Six years ago today,
21:33we wiped out the threat from the seas.
21:37Three thousand sirens executed.
21:39And we secured a century of maritime power for the Empire.
21:45To the final eration of those three thousand souls.
21:49Drink!
21:57My apologies.
21:59I didn't grip it tight enough.
22:01This color,
22:02it really does resemble the seawater
22:04you described that night, my lord.
22:10Continue.
22:11I need to change.
22:23My lord,
22:25this is the glory you wanted.
22:26How does it taste?
22:28What is it you want?
22:29To kill me?
22:30Then do it!
22:31Now!
22:33Death would be too kind.
22:36I want you fully awake.
22:39Watching the monument you built.
22:42Rotting inch by inch.
22:45Lyra?
22:47If you don't let go,
22:49Seraphine will see.
22:51Lyra!
22:52Lyra!
22:59Lyra!
23:00You look pale.
23:02You look pale.
23:02Are you too tired?
23:03It's nothing.
23:04The wine was too strong.
23:34Something's wrong.
23:36The Elder would never miss a meeting.
23:46Meera, where are you?
23:59They're all at the Singing Sea.
24:02If you knew, you'd want to tear me apart right now, wouldn't you?
24:18Lyra, last night I heard Caius arguing with his officer.
24:21They mentioned the Singing Sea.
24:23Said they caught important war prisoners.
24:27Isn't that a royal forbidden zone?
24:29What kind of people would be locked up there?
24:33Your Highness, I think I need to leave the palace for a while.
24:38Now?
24:39But we're supposed to go pray at the temple this afternoon.
24:45I lost something very important.
24:48I have to find it.
24:51It's me.
24:52I'm Vesper.
24:53What happened?
24:56Where's Meera?
24:57Did Meera send you to find me?
25:01Seventeen of them.
25:03All captured.
25:04And the Elders.
25:07Understood.
25:08Hide in the woods outside the city.
25:10Wait for me.
25:15Meera.
25:17It's Meera.
25:21Wait for me.
25:27Where did you go?
25:31I went to see an old friend.
25:34It's dangerous out there.
25:37Lyra.
25:38Do you have a secret?
25:39Can you tell me?
25:40Your Highness.
25:42Some secrets will cost a life.
25:55That's the water channel we used to use.
25:58They've welded shut.
26:03Only three guards inside.
26:05Follow me.
26:06Meera should be inside.
26:14Princess.
26:16You shouldn't have come.
26:22Move.
26:23Now.
26:30I've been waiting for you.
26:32There's no way out.
26:34Vesper.
26:35Stay.
26:39Attack!
26:52go to the sea.
26:58Mлючoma.
27:01Lkinum!
27:10Princess, here am I.
27:21Too few names
27:23What I want to judge
27:25Is the lie of the entire palace city
27:31We can't save them
27:32Mira's gone too
27:35He didn't slaughter the past us
27:38He's slaughtering the us of now
27:40And the us of now
27:42Still has a voice
27:50I sent them back to the dungeon
27:52Come back with me
27:54I promise they live
27:55Your promise?
27:56Is it those 3,000 graves from 6 years ago?
28:02Tell me what you want
28:04Anything
28:05What I want
28:06You can't give
28:08You already owe
28:123,000 lives
28:14How will you pay?
28:162,000 lives
28:44I won't care
28:45I'll be and I'll see you
28:51It's the princess.
29:37My lord, the flagship is lost.
29:39No survivors, and the messengers sent to deliver the execution order to the singing sea.
29:43Where are the messengers?
29:44All three messenger boats were capsized by huge waves less than a mile from shore.
29:47Carrier pigeons crashed into the sea the moment they flew out.
29:50We've lost all contact with the garrison.
29:52The sea I conquered for six years.
29:54Now it's becoming a wall.
29:56That's not something an ordinary person can do.
30:02I can't move a single soldier to the coast.
30:05My lord, this venom, it's from back then.
30:08Her voice can destroy everything.
30:10Only this can silence her one more time.
30:12But the entrance to the singing sea is already controlled by her people.
30:15We can't get it in.
30:16No need to send it in.
30:17The underground water pipes are still ours.
30:19Pour it into the upstream source, that's enough.
30:21My lord, that will kill every siren's held there.
30:24I know.
30:31It's the venom in the water.
30:32That's how they killed the princess's voice back then.
30:42He wants to take my voice away.
30:44One more time.
30:45I've heard the lord can't hold the sirens back anymore.
30:47The whole sea is full of their songs.
30:49That so-called hero of the sea back then, wasn't it a borrowed reputation?
30:53She's stripping away every honor I lived on.
30:56Just as I stripped away her people.
30:59The ancient blood awakens.
31:05Break the chains.
31:07Return to the sea.
31:09What is this monster power?
31:27The sea returns to its masters.
31:33Princess!
31:34Drown the whole palace city!
31:35Let them taste what extinction feels like!
31:38Their children shouldn't pay for their father's debts.
31:42The sea!
31:43It's falling from the sky!
31:50The power I schemed for six years ago.
31:56Now,
31:59I can do nothing.
32:32The sea!
32:33The sea has eyes!
32:35Look!
32:37Who is that?
32:53My man!
32:55Order the mage towers now!
32:57The water is flooding in!
32:59It's already destroyed the memorial and the statue!
33:05It's useless.
33:08This is her role, Kong.
33:13This is her role, Kong.
33:18This is her role, Kong.
33:19Please!
33:19No!
33:24Gods.
33:25I was on the shore then.
33:27I thought they were just beasts.
33:32The sound!
33:33It carries across the entire coast.
33:44This melody, it's exactly the same as my motherland's morning song.
33:50This melody, I thought it was only a narc.
33:53This melody, I thought you were on the shore then.
33:53It's famous for the astronomies.
34:01But the dead.
34:02The sun.
34:03This is his foot.
34:07It's nice to be the sun, my friend.
34:08I thought it was a guest.
34:08The ball is close, it's close.
34:08It's like, I thought it was okay.
34:09The fire was going through.
34:09It's in the sky among the real people's years of the day.
34:10And the fire is happening!
34:11I thought.
34:15It's not too close.
34:16I don't know.
34:47This is the Royal Seal. This is the Military Teller. This is the Imperial Decree Seal. He used these three
34:53things to kill my father and brother. Today they leave with me.
35:00My Lord, Her Highness is gone.
35:03And the rosewood chest in the hidden compartment of your study, it's empty too.
35:15She didn't just leave. She took every token I needed to command this empire.
35:24Did you think I married you out of obedience? Six years ago, while you slaughtered the silence, you also wiped
35:30out my motherland's royal family.
35:33You used my father's and brother's lives to force me into being your queen.
35:37Every day I looked at you. I was counting down to when you would die.
35:40Now the sea has come back, and I should take back what belongs to me. I don't forgive you. Not
35:47ever.
35:48The Alliance I was proud of, it was built on her blood-stoked hatred.
35:52The safe woman I protected, she wanted to kill me with her own hands.
35:55All of it, all of it, all of it, was a lie.
36:06Come.
36:08Your Majesty, still waiting for your army?
36:11They've already thrown their armor into the sea outside the city, begging for forgiveness.
36:17Elias, you should run too.
36:23Run! I knelt under this throne for six years. Your so-called hero of the sea name, I built it
36:30for you with severed heads.
36:32Now the sea is back. You can't hold it down, and you want us to die with you?
36:37Hand over the royal seal and the treasury order. You're not the king anymore.
36:42You're a cursed disaster. This seat belongs to someone who can keep the land alive.
36:47Give it to you, Elias. Listen to what's outside.
36:55The sea doesn't want the royal seal. Sit then, if you think you can survive the night in that chair.
37:05This is what I traded three 3,000 lives for.
37:273,000 lives! 3,000 children you've dumped into the sea, Trench!
37:34Princess, let me kill him. My son.
37:37They were on that beach that night. Let me kill him!
37:41You don't use his way.
37:43Why? He's a monster! He slaughtered our whole people!
37:47If today we kill a man kneeling for death, then this sea will no longer be the Singing Sea. It
37:52will be another land filled with hate.
37:54Go back. The sea is waiting for you. Not your death here.
38:00Why save me? Kill me? Please!
38:02Killing would be too easy. Live. Watch this sea. Remember every life. This is the rest of your existence. Every
38:09time you close your eyes, I want you to dream of those 3,000 voices.
38:14Don't leave me alone! Don't make me carry these memories by myself!
38:19The sea doesn't want me. The land won't let me return.
38:23Run.
38:33Stop!
38:34Stop!
38:40No!
38:44No!
38:44No!
38:45Take your voice away, you.
38:48No!
38:50No!
38:51No!
38:52No!

39:27Every time I try to move, the sea pushes me back.
39:32This is the rest of my existence.
