00:00I am the last princess of the Siren people.
00:02Six years ago, I saved a human man.
00:05I loved him, and I gave him my kingdom secrets.
00:08He repaid me by sealing my voice with a poisoned needle,
00:11then led his army to slaughter all 3,000 of my people.
00:15He thought I was dead.
00:16He was wrong.
00:18Lord Caius crushed four kingdoms before he even turned 30.
00:22Of course, he once infiltrated the Sea Clan as a spy all on his own.
00:26It's because of him that our kingdom is this powerful.
00:28That's why Serafina had to marry him.
00:35Today, we gather here to bind two souls together.
00:39Do you swear upon your life to guard her kingdom?
00:45As you 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.
01:17My people died.
01:19My father died.
01:20You owe my people their lives, Caius.
01:22I'm here to collect.
01:24His crown, his alliances, his woman, his reputation.
01:28Six 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.
01:53Hunters are after me.
01:56I'm not one of them.
01:57I'm who they want to kill.
01:59Please.
02:01Hold on.
02:14Hold on.
02:25You're safe here.
02:27My name is Vesper.
02:30Vesper.
02:32You saved my life.
02:36Your injuries were too severe.
02:38Any later and I couldn't have helped.
02:45General.
02:49The intelligence about the Siren Clan is all confirmed.
02:52Her 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.
03:06Coordinates to follow.
03:07Give me time.
03:08I will obtain everything.
03:12Sleep.
03:13You'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.
03:23But 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.
03:44You trust him too much.
03:46Father.
03:47He'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.
04:26It will only be because I died first.
04:29Vespa.
04:30I 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.
04:49Come 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's ships have been spotted beyond the coastline.
05:19Three of them.
05:20Vespa, listen to me.
05:22If they find your tribe's source of power, they will destroy it first.
05:27Let me see it.
05:29I need to know how to defend it.
05:32Those three ships were his doing.
05:36He manufactured the fear, then 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, I 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.
06:22A tracking stone.
06:23The general's sorcerers will sense it.
06:26From this moment on, they 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.
07:07I'll always stay.
07:10Do 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.
07:33A 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.
07:53Tomorrow.
08:16Princess!
08:17Hunters! Coming from the sea! They've sealed every entrance!
08:36Father!
08:43Caius! You're still here!
08:48Come. Help me get Father out.
08:52Vesper.
09:04You... you promised me! You said with your life!
09:08I said many things. You chose to believe all of them.
09:14Did you ever love me?
09:17Even for one second?
09:19Your kingdom was beautiful.
09:21Your voice was useful.
09:24You're asking the wrong question.
09:35What?
09:37What?
09:37Look!
09:38I don't know.
10:16Vesper, don't sing.
10:18They're waiting for you to open your throat.
10:20The moment you do, they'll know you're still alive.
10:23You are the last voice of the Siren people.
10:26Father.
10:26Live.
10:28Take your voice away, you.
10:31Someday.
11:17My lord, the entire Siren royal family is confirmed dead.
11:21Princess Vessa is on the list.
11:23Was her body found?
11:24Swept away by the wave, but given her injuries...
11:28Keep looking.
12:11얘기 on my own, with every 37 of the river...
12:13...to do rock to the river...
12:15...for love.
12:16Walk the water.
12:21Help.
12:22Slice?
12:22Call us.
12:25Mail.ush,
12:26tree.
12:51If your kingdom ever falls,
12:53it will only be because I died first.
12:55Vesper, I swear it.
13:01You chose to believe all of them.
13:07Liv, take your voice away, you.
13:16No whore singing, no!
13:26No whore singing!
13:31Princess, you're alive.
13:35Princess, you're alive.
13:39Princess, you're alive.
13:40Princess, you're alive.
14:06Miss again.
14:07But we have to open our mouths.
14:09Not to sing.
14:10To make the ones who did this, hear us.
14:15How 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, now it's your turn to answer mine, one by one.
14:43I spent three months.
14:45Princess Seraphine, his future queen, she trusts anyone who is kind to her.
14:49Exactly like me, six years ago.
14:55Lyra, you saved my life.
15:00My lord, Princess Seraphine has arrived.
15:03She brought a cousin with her, named of Lyra.
15:06A cousin?
15:10A distant relative, very quiet, insists on personally attending the princess.
15:24Caius, you'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.
15:46I personally...
15:53My lord, your hand is shaking.
15:56Is 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.
16:13I knew he knew.
16:14But 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!
16:24Investigate her.
16:25Now!
16:26I want everything before tomorrow.
16:27My lord, she's only the princess's cousin.
16:29I said now!
16:38First one.
16:41You'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.
16:50Everyone in this palace owes me something.
16:52Including you.
16:53Remember your place.
16:56Yes, 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.
17:11You can't?
17:12Of course.
17:13Look at these hands.
17:15How many dishes have you washed to make them look like that?
17:24My lady is right.
17:25I can't really sing.
17:27Only just a little.
17:34I poisoned my husband.
17:38Three years ago.
17:40He 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.
17:48I can't stop.
17:50Lyra.
17:51I'm frightened.
17:53Don't be afraid, your highness.
17:56I'm here.
18:00She'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.
18:07She came to destroy everything I own,
18:09one 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,
18:16I slaughtered an entire people.
18:21Sir.
18:22Just got word.
18:23The patrol caught 17 stray Syrians near the entrance to the Singing Sea.
18:28Who's leading them?
18:30An old man with a broken tail.
18:32They 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.
18:44No one in the palace is to know.
18:48Even Lady Lyra.
18:50I said.
18:51No one.
18:53After those deep-sea beasts were wiped out,
18:56the shipping lanes became ten times safer.
18:59All thanks to Lord Caius.
19:03I...
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!
19:14I lied!
19:15I staged that riot to swiddle more military fun!
19:21Help me!
19:22Why can't I...
19:25What did you do, Tim?
19:27My man.
19:28I only poured a cup of tea.
19:30He wanted to confess.
19:32Play this trick once.
19:34That's enough.
19:35Stop!
19:36The names on the list aren't all dead yet, my lord.
19:40What 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.
20:05Liar.
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.
20:15What about you?
20:16Have you lied to me?
20:18I will never hurt you, your highness.
20:21My lord.
20:22The order for Elias.
20:23The court is already pressing for it.
20:25Keep him.
20:26But yesterday he admitted in public.
20:28Embezzling military funds.
20:29Staging the riot.
20:30He's stolen goods.
20:31But 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...
20:38Among 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.
20:47So even her identity is borrowed.
20:49She's using Serafina.
20:52Liar.
20:54This officer would like to ask you a few questions about your hometown.
20:57For instance, how did that plague begin?
21:00The plague?
21:01I only remember seeing the officer at the coast three years ago.
21:03You were with your men, hunting down escaped operations.
21:08So 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?
21:16People in the palace are talking.
21:17Our hero since been living in fear all along.
21:20Why else send so many men to guard the coastal forbiddensate?
21:24Enough.
21:25Get out.
21:32Six years ago today, we wiped out the threat from the seas.
21:38Three thousand sirens executed.
21:40And we secured a century of maritime power for the empire.
21:45To the final erration of those three thousand souls.
21:50Drink!
21:58My apologies.
21:59I didn't grip it tight enough.
22:01This color, it really does resemble the seawater you described that night, my lord.
22:10Continue.
22:11I need to change.
22:24My lord, this is the glory you wanted.
22:27How does it taste?
22:28What is it you want?
22:30To kill me?
22:31Then do it.
22:31Now!
22:34Death would be too kind.
22:37I want you fully awake.
22:40Watching the monument you built.
22:42Rotting inch by inch.
22:46Lyra?
22:47If you don't let go, Seraphine will see.
22:52Lyra!
22:52Lyra!
22:59Caius!
23:01You look pale.
23:02Are you too tired?
23:03It's nothing.
23:04The wine was too strong.
23:14It's nothing.
23:35Something's wrong.
23:37The elder would never miss a meeting.
23:46Myrra, where are you?
23:59They're all at the Sinning Sea.
24:02If you knew, you'd want to tear me apart right now, wouldn't you?
24:19Lyra, last night I heard Caius arguing with his officer.
24:22They mentioned the Sinning Sea.
24:24Said they caught important war prisoners.
24:27Isn't that a royal forbidden zone?
24:29What kind of people would be locked up there?
24:34Your Highness, I think I need to leave the palace for a while.
24:39Now?
24:40But we're supposed to go pray at the temple this afternoon.
24:46I lost something very important.
24:49I have to find it.
24:52It's me.
24:53I'm Vesper.
24:54What happened?
24:57Where's Myrra?
24:58Did Myrra send you to find me?
25:02Seventeen of them.
25:03All captured.
25:05And the elders?
25:08Understood.
25:09Hide in the woods outside the city.
25:11Wait for me.
25:16Myrra.
25:17It's Myrra.
25:21Wait for me.
25:27Where did you go?
25:32I went to see an old friend.
25:35It's dangerous out there.
25:37Lyra.
25:38Do you have a secret?
25:40Can you tell me?
25:41Your Highness.
25:43Some secrets will cost a life.
25:56That's the water channel we used to use.
25:58They've welded shut.
26:04Only three guards inside.
26:06Follow me.
26:07Myrra should be inside.
26:08Okay.
26:15Princess.
26:17You shouldn't have come.
26:22Move.
26:24Now.
26:30I've been waiting for you.
26:33There's no way out.
26:35Vesper.
26:36Stay.
26:37Stay.
26:39I'm back!
26:41I'm back!
26:51Princess.
26:53Go to the sea.
27:01Lyra!
27:11Princess, you're a lie.
27:22Too few names.
27:24What I want to judge is the lie of the entire palace city.
27:32We can't save them. Meera's gone too.
27:36He didn't slaughter the past us. He's slaughtering the us of now.
27:41And the us of now still has a voice.
27:50I sent them back to the dungeon. Come back with me.
27:54I promise they live.
27:56Your promise? Visit those 3,000 graves from six years ago?
28:03Tell me what you want. Anything.
28:06What I want, you can't give. You already owe.
28:133,000 lives. How will you pay?
28:16ного a day.
28:52It's the princess.
29:37My lord, the flagship is lost.
29:39No survivors.
29:40And the messengers sent to deliver the execution order to the singing sea.
29:43Where are the messengers?
29:45All three messenger boats were capsized by huge waves less than a mile from shore.
29:48Carrier pigeons crashed into the sea the moment they flew out.
29:51We've lost all contact with the garrison.
29:53The sea I conquered for six years.
29:55Now it's becoming a war.
29:57That's not something an ordinary person can do.
30:02I can't move a single soldier to the coast.
30:06My lord, this venom, it's from back then?
30:09Her voice can destroy everything.
30:11Only this can silence her one more time.
30:13But the entrance to the singing sea is already controlled by her people.
30:16We can't get it in.
30:17No need to send it in.
30:18The underground water pipes are still ours.
30:20Pour it into the upstream source, that's enough.
30:22My lord, that will kill every syringe held there.
30:24I know.
30:31It's the venom in the water!
30:33That's how they killed the princess's voice back then!
30:43He wants to take my voice away.
30:45One more time.
30:46I've heard the lord can't hold the sirens back anymore.
30:48The whole sea is full of their songs.
30:50That so-called hero of the sea back then, wasn't it a borrowed reputation?
30:53She's stripping away every honor I lived on, just as I stripped away her people.
31:00The ancient blood awakens.
31:06Break the chains.
31:08Return to the sea.
31:09What is this monster power?
31:27The sea returns to its masters.
31:33Princess!
31:35Drown the whole palace city!
31:36Let them taste what extinction feels like!
31:39Their children shouldn't pay for their father's debts.
31:43The sea!
31:44It's falling from the sky!
31:50The power I schemed for six years ago.
31:57Now.
32:00I can do nothing.
32:04I can do nothing.
32:14I can do nothing.
32:33The sea, the sea has eyes.
32:36Look, who is that?
32:54My man, order the mage towers now.
32:58The water is flooding in.
33:00It's already destroyed the memorial and the statue.
33:06It's useless.
33:09This is her roll call.
33:19Please!
33:20No!
33:24Gods.
33:25I was on the shore then.
33:28I thought they were just beasts.
33:32The sound, it carries across the entire coast.
33:45This melody, it's exactly the same as my motherland's morning song.
33:49I love you, too.
33:57Hey.
33:59Hey.
34:02Let's go.
34:48This is the Royal Seal. This is the Military Teller. This is the Imperial Decree Seal. He used these three
34:54things to kill my father and brother. Today they leave with me.
35:01My lord, her highness is gone.
35:04And the rosewood chest in the hidden compartment of your study, it's empty too.
35:16She didn't just leave. She took every token I needed to command this empire.
35:48The Alliance I was proud of.
35:50It was built on her blood-stoked hatred. The safe woman I protected. She wanted to kill me with her
35:56own hands. All of it was a lie.
36:06Come.
36:08Your majesty, still waiting for your army? They've already thrown their armor into the sea outside the city, begging for
36:17forgiveness.
36:19Elias, you should run too.
36:24Run! I knelt under this throne for six years. Your so-called hero of the sea name, I built it
36:31for you with severed heads.
36:33Now the sea is back. You can't hold it down and you want us to die with you? Hand over
36:39the Royal Seal and the Treasury Order! You're not the king anymore!
36:43You're a cursed disaster. This seat belongs to someone who can keep the land alive!
36:48Give it to you, Elias. Listen to what's outside.
36:56The sea doesn't want the Royal Seal. Sit then, if you think you can survive the night in that chair.
37:06This is what I traded three 3,000 lives for.
37:283,000 lives! 3,000 children you've dumped into the sea, Trent!
37:35Princess, let me kill him. My son. They were on that beach that night. Let me kill him!
37:42You don't use his way.
37:44Why? He's a monster! He slaughtered our whole people!
37:48If today we kill a man kneeling for death, then this sea will no longer be the Singing Sea, it
37:53will be another land filled with hate. Go back. The sea is waiting for you, not your death here.
38:01Why save me? Kill me? Please!
38:04Killing would be too easy. Live. Watch this sea. Remember every life. This is the rest of your existence. Every
38:10time you close your eyes, I want you to dream of those 3,000 voices.
38:15Don'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.
38:25The sea doesn't want me. The land won't let me return.
38:34Stop. Stop!
38:45Live. Take your voice away, you.
39:06Take your voice away, you.
39:12Buy it.
39:14It makes your voice away, you.дуic...
39:26It makes you
39:27happy to tell what you are. Every time I
39:29try to move, the sea pushes me back, this is the rest of my existence.
