Short filmTranscript
00:08My name is Iris, the lowest Omega slave.
00:12My daily job is throw Silverstones in a deep pit.
00:15They say there's a rogue beast locked in the pit.
00:18Brenda, the Gamma Overseer, never stops saying the same thing.
00:22He tried to attack the Alpha.
00:24He deserves to die.
00:26Keep throwing until that monster rots!
00:30Silver is torture for werewolves.
00:32Every impact echoes like something breaking inside the dark.
00:37A whip cracks at my feet.
00:40Iris! Stop spacing out useless Omega! Throw it!
00:44I flinched, picked up a Silverstone and dropped it into the pit.
00:49Thud. It disappears.
00:51No scream. Only silence.
00:54I don't know if that so-called rogue is dead or alive.
00:58Perhaps he is already gone.
01:00Everything we are doing is just adding the final handfuls of dirt to a grave.
01:04But for some reason, my wolf instinct tells me he is still breathing.
01:08It is a gut feeling I cannot explain.
01:10Back at the slave sheds, we are given two dry, hard pieces of black bread.
01:14Others fight for it.
01:16I don't. I can't stop thinking about the Silver Pit.
01:19That night, I dreamt of it.
01:22I was the one inside.
01:24Silver stones raining down me.
01:26Breaking my bones.
01:27Burning my skin.
01:29I screamed.
01:31But no sound came out.
01:32Then a massive stone fell straight towards my head.
01:39I woke up with a start.
01:41The moon outside the window glowed blood red.
01:44And that's when I do something I should never have done.
01:47After everyone fell asleep, I went back to the Silver Pit.
01:50My heartbeat was so loud it hurt.
01:53If Brendan caught me, I'm dead.
01:55I lowered a piece of bread into the basket, down into the dark.
01:59Nothing.
02:01Then, Russell.
02:02Who's there?
02:03I freeze.
02:05No one survives the Silver Pit.
02:07That's what we were told.
02:08Then it happens.
02:10An overwhelming alpha aura exploded from the bottom of the pit.
02:13Something opens its eyes in the dark.
02:15Red.
02:17Slow.
02:18Alive.
02:19Red eyes that only a lichen king could possess.
02:22And I realize, whatever is down there, was never a rogue.
02:28My mind went completely blank.
02:33Everything we were told was a lie.
02:37The Silver Pit isn't a prison.
02:39It's a burial ground for someone important.
02:43Why was he locked down there?
02:47And why did the alpha cover it up with a fake story about a rogue?
02:52It must be a dangerous secret.
02:55I was just the lowest Omega slave.
02:58But because of one stupid moment of kindness,
03:03I had stepped into something that could destroy me completely.
03:10Who are you?
03:11Forget it.
03:12Whoever you are, thank you for the food.
03:14That was the first meal I've had in three years.
03:17Three years.
03:18Locked inside the Silver Pit.
03:19No food.
03:20No water.
03:21Only silver falling every day.
03:23How is he still alive?
03:24You should leave.
03:25This place is dangerous.
03:27And don't come back.
03:28My body wants to run, but I don't move.
03:30Because even like this, he's trying to protect me.
03:36The next morning, I can't think straight.
03:39I keep asking myself, was he real?
03:42Or was it a nightmare?
03:44But I still go back.
03:46At the edge of the Silver Pit, I lower the basket.
03:51Then I hear his voice again.
03:53Comma now.
03:54Controlled.
03:55Wait.
03:56You don't have to tell me your name.
03:58Let's make a rule.
03:59After you drop the basket, knock three times.
04:01Then leave.
04:03It's safer that way.
04:06Ben.
04:08I need healing salve and clean bandits.
04:10If you can get them, I owe you my life.
04:14Healing safe.
04:15Inside the Blood Moon pack.
04:17That's not medicine.
04:19That's a privilege.
04:21Only alpha guards and healers can access it.
04:24I should refuse, but when I opened my mouth, what came out was,
04:27I'll try.
04:28The moment I said it, I regretted it.
04:31Healing salve.
04:32Those words didn't leave my head.
04:35In the Blood Moon pack, medicine was worth more than a slave's life.
04:38The medical wing was guarded day and night.
04:41A slave like me would disappear before even getting close.
04:45Stealing it is impossible.
04:46Buying it is impossible.
04:48I lay awake the entire night, thinking of one plan after another,
04:51then rejecting every single one.
04:53Right before dawn, my fingers brushed as against something hard beneath my straw pillow.
04:58A silver pendant.
04:59It was my mother's only gift before I was dragged into this place.
05:03If one day you can't survive anymore, sell it.
05:08The next morning, I hid it and stepped into danger.
05:11I found a half-breed Omega named Luke.
05:14He works near the medical wing.
05:16Weak position.
05:17Greedy eyes.
05:18Perfect target.
05:19I showed him the pendant.
05:21I...
05:22I want a deal.
05:24What do you want?
05:25Healing salve.
05:27For silver words.
05:28You're insane!
05:29If they find out, we're both dead!
05:31This is pure silver.
05:33It's worth enough for you to buy freedom outside the pack.
05:35His eyes shift.
05:37Greed wins.
05:37Tomorrow.
05:38Same place.
05:39And just like that, I step into a deeper trap.
05:45That night, I didn't go to the silver pit.
05:48I was afraid.
05:50Afraid he might be waiting.
05:52The next day, I return to the corner with my heart in my throat.
05:55Luke was already there.
05:57He gives me a small vials.
05:59That's all I could get.
06:00Don't come back again.
06:02I actually did it.
06:04I traded my mother's only keepsake.
06:06For medicine to save a stranger.
06:09On the way back, Brendan appears.
06:11Stop.
06:12Why are you acting so nervous?
06:14Where were you?
06:14I...
06:15I was sick.
06:16I need herbs.
06:18Since when do Omega slaves deserve medicine?
06:20When slaves get sick, they're supposed to die quietly.
06:23Get back to work, trash.
06:30I almost fled back to my room.
06:32And even after closing the door, my legs were still trembling.
06:35That night, I went back to the silver pit.
06:38I put the healing same and clean bandages into the basket.
06:43Then, I tapped the edge of the pit three times.
06:46I lowered the basket, then turned to leave.
06:49But his voice stopped me.
06:51Alec.
06:52I froze.
06:54What?
06:55My name is Alec.
06:58That name hits like thunder.
07:00Alec.
07:01The lost name of the Lyokan Empire.
07:03The dead king.
07:04But he's not dead.
07:06He's under the silver pit.
07:07Alive.
07:08I turned and ran.
07:10No thinking.
07:11No hesitation.
07:13Before I rounded the corner, I looked back once.
07:16A shadow stood on the fortress roof.
07:18Still and silent, watching me.
07:20It was Brendan.
07:21She had been there the whole time.
07:23My stomach dropped.
07:25She saw everything.
07:28She saw me lowering food into the pit.
07:31Heard me talking to him.
07:32And worst of all, she heard that name Alec.
07:36But Brendan didn't move.
07:38She didn't call the guards.
07:39She just stared.
07:41The corners of her lips slowly twisting into a creepy little smile.
07:45Then she disappeared.
07:46That night, I stayed awake until sunrise.
07:48I kept waiting for the guards to burst through the door.
07:51Waiting for Brenda's shrill voice to announce my death sentence.
07:54But nothing happened.
07:55Morning came like usual.
07:58The Omega girls in my room yawned, washed up, and got dressed for work.
08:02Nobody looked at me twice.
08:04It almost felt like last night had only been a nightmare.
08:07But I knew it was real.
08:09Brenda appeared.
08:10Same cold face.
08:12Same whip in her hand.
08:14Her eyes swept across the entire line.
08:17When they landed on me, they didn't even pause.
08:20She looked right past me like I didn't exist.
08:22That silence scared me more than any beating ever could.
08:25It felt like she was toying with me.
08:28Like a hunter slowly cornering trapped prey.
08:31The whole day felt like torture.
08:33Brenda never spoke to me once.
08:35But I could feel her watching me from the shadows the entire time.
08:38Like a venomous snake waiting for the perfect moment to strike.
08:41That night, I still got my usual two pieces of bread.
08:46But I couldn't eat a single bite.
08:50Iris, are you sick?
08:52I shook my head, unable to say a single word.
08:55I didn't know how much longer I had left to live.
09:01And I didn't know how Alec was doing down there.
09:04Did he get the medicine?
09:06Were his wounds healing?
09:08Did he know we'd already been discovered?
09:11Days passed day.
09:13Everything stayed terrifyingly calm.
09:15By the fourth morning, I was already close to breaking.
09:18During morning assembly, Brendan suddenly called my name.
09:22Iris.
09:23My body stiffened abruptly, and all the maids turned their eyes to me in unison.
09:28I stepped forward and dropped to my knees.
09:34I'm here, Gamma.
09:35You don't look too well these past few days.
09:37Guess throwing silver stones is too much work for a weak Omega.
09:40I would never complain, Gamma.
09:41In that case, I'll give you a new assignment.
09:45The Alpha believes the creature in the pit has been rotting down there for too long.
09:48It may spread disease and taint the sacred land of the pack.
09:52So from today on, you girls no longer need to throw silver stones.
09:56Murmurs break out, and Brendan raises her hand to quiet everyone.
10:01The Alpha has ordered that starting today, one bucket of liquid silver will be poured into the pit every noon.
10:08To disinfect the place completely.
10:12Liquid silver.
10:15My mind exploded into static.
10:18Liquid silver.
10:20That stuff was deadly to werewolves.
10:22Even one drop could burn through flesh.
10:25And now they wanted to pour down an entire bucket.
10:28That wasn't cleansing.
10:29That was execution.
10:30They wanted to melt the man at the bottom.
10:32This new job is much cleaner, and much more respectable.
10:35Iris, you'll do it.
10:36One bucket every day, you will pour it down personally.
10:39Don't disappoint the Alpha.
10:40Or me.
10:44I knelt there, frozen.
10:46Like I had fallen into endless ice water.
10:50And finally, I understood what Brendan really wanted.
10:58She didn't want me dead.
11:00She wanted me to kill him myself.
11:04She wanted to turn me into the same kind of monster she was.
11:08A blood-stained executioner.
11:12This was the cruelest punishment imaginable.
11:16She wasn't trying to destroy my body.
11:18She was destroying my soul.
11:21I didn't even know how I made it back to my room.
11:25Only two words kept repeating in my mind like a curse.
11:28Liquid silver.
11:29Every word Brendan said burned inside my head.
11:32You will pour it down personally.
11:35She wanted me to kill Alec, slowly and painfully.
11:39If I obeyed, I would destroy the only life I had ever tried to save.
11:44If I refused, I would die the next second.
11:49What can I do?
11:51What am I supposed to do?
11:54Noon was getting closer.
11:56I could already imagine Brendan waiting, watching me break, enjoying every second of it.
12:02A thought suddenly cut through my panic.
12:07I have to warn Alec.
12:10Even if we die, he needs to know.
12:13Not hope.
12:14Not bread.
12:15I searched frantically for paper.
12:17Paper.
12:18Pen.
12:19Anything.
12:19But I had nothing.
12:21I was just an Omega slave.
12:23Even paper was a privilege I didn't have.
12:25My gaze falls on the white cloth beside me.
12:27Enough.
12:28I grab the cloth and bite my finger open.
12:30Blood wells out instantly.
12:32Liquid silver at noon today.
12:34They know.
12:35Escape now.
12:36Be careful.
12:41The letters were messy.
12:43But I didn't care.
12:44This was all I could do.
12:46Now came the real problem.
12:47How do I get it to him?
12:49Going to the pit now would be suicide.
12:51Brendan was definitely watching.
12:52I needed a distraction.
12:53Just one second.
12:55My eyes landed on the charcoal baskin.
12:59An idea formed.
13:01I hid the blood letter in my arms.
13:03Then carried the charcoal brazen.
13:05Straight to the straw shed.
13:07Dry grass.
13:09Dead wood.
13:10Perfect.
13:11My hands were shaking.
13:13I struck the flint to light a fire.
13:15The fire caught instantly.
13:17Smoke exploded upward.
13:21Fire! Fire!
13:23Somebody help!
13:24Please! Somebody help!
13:25Everyone was running.
13:26I knew Brendan had to be alarmed by now.
13:28A castle fire under her direct supervision meant an unforgivable delethement of duty.
13:34Right now, her entire focus and attention had to be completely consumed by extinguishing the fire.
13:40This was my golden window of opportunity.
13:42I turned and ran straight to the pit.
13:44I tied the note to a stone and dropped it down.
13:48It was done.
13:50Escape now.
13:53That pit was deep enough to swallow a person whole and the stone walls were slip and impossible to climb.
13:59He was badly injured, unarmed, and trapped down there.
14:02How was he supposed to escape?
14:04I didn't dare think any further, because I was terrified the answer would be the worst one possible.
14:10For the next two days, the entire outer slaves compound stayed under a tense, chaotic lockdown.
14:14All of us Omega slaves were confined to our quarters and forbidden to leave.
14:17The work of throwing silver stones and pouring liquid silver was naturally suspended too.
14:21Every single day, I waited for news about Alec.
14:23Even hearing that he'd been captured again would have been better than this endless uncertainty.
14:27At least then I'd know he was alive.
14:28But there was nothing.
14:30The Alpha castle remained calm and quiet like nothing had ever happened.
14:33As if an Omega slave named Iris had never set half the compound on fire just to buy him time.
14:40By the third night, I couldn't take it anymore.
14:46I had to go back to the pit one more time.
14:49Just once.
14:55If Alec was alive, maybe he'd left behind some kind of signal.
14:59And if he was gone, if he was already dead, then I needed to force myself to let go.
15:04I knelt beside the edge and listened carefully.
15:06Nothing.
15:06No breathing.
15:07No movement.
15:08No sound of cloth brushing against stone.
15:10Just silence.
15:11My heart slowly sank.
15:12Maybe he was gone.
15:13Or maybe he had already...
15:14I cut the thought off before it could finish.
15:17I pushed myself to stand.
15:18But just as I turned to leave, something caught the corner of my eye.
15:21There was something wedged inside a crack along the stone rim.
15:23Under the moonlight, it reflected a faint metallic clint.
15:26My heartbeat instantly sped up.
15:27I hurried over and carefully pried it out from the crevice in the rock.
15:30It was a token.
15:31The moment I touched it, cold spread through my fingers.
15:33On one side was a roaring thunder wolf carved in incredible detail.
15:37On the other was an ancient crest.
15:39Elegant.
15:40Sharp.
15:41Unmistakably noble.
15:42It was Alec's family crest.
15:46My breath caught.
15:47Was this something Alec left for me?
15:49Why?
15:50As I stared at it in confusion, I noticed tiny runes carved along the edge of the obsidian.
15:55I lifted it toward the moonlight and squinted to read them.
15:58There were only a few words.
16:00Northgate.
16:01Old Barnaby.
16:01I froze.
16:02The Northgate was the most remote exit in the entire outer compound.
16:06It had been abandoned for years and was usually locked shut.
16:08The only person stationed there was an old wolf soldier named Barnaby.
16:12I'd seen him a few times before.
16:13Alec wanted me to find him?
16:14Which meant...
16:15Barnaby was one of Alec's people.
16:17My heart started pounding so hard it hurt.
16:20This wasn't the end.
16:21It was the beginning.
16:23Alec hadn't given up.
16:25He had escaped that pit alive.
16:27And before leaving, he'd given me a new order.
16:30He trusted me.
16:31I clutched the token tightly in my hand.
16:34And in that moment, I understood something clearly.
16:37The second I accepted this token, my fate became tied to his forever.
16:41From now on, we lived or died together.
16:45After Brenda was dragged away, the slave quarters fell into chaos for several days.
16:53It wasn't until the fourth day that the new Gamma Overseer finally arrived.
16:58Her name was Tabitha.
17:00She was completely different from Brendan.
17:04She never hit anyone.
17:06She never screamed insults either.
17:08There was even a faint smile on her face most of the time.
17:11But the moment I saw her, a chill ran straight down my spine.
17:17Brenda's cruelty was obvious, like a mad dog barking non-stop.
17:21But Tabitha was different.
17:23Her malice was buried deep inside her bones.
17:26She was like a venomous snake hiding in the dark.
17:29Silent.
17:30Motionless.
17:31But ready to bite your throat open at any second.
17:35On her very first day, she reorganized the entire slave compound.
17:41Everyone's duties were reassigned.
17:47And unsurprisingly, I got the dirtiest and hardest work of all.
17:51My job was to clean up the ruins left behind after the fire.
17:55The other slaves looked at me with pity.
17:57Only I knew this was exactly the opportunity I wanted.
18:01Because the North Gate was right beside that dumping ground.
18:03The first time I pushed my cart near the North Gate, my heart pounded so hard I could barely breathe.
18:06That was when I saw him.
18:07Old Barnaby.
18:08The old guard stationed at the gate.
18:10He didn't react at all.
18:12Not even his eyelids moved.
18:15I called again.
18:17A little louder this time.
18:18But only then did he slowly open his eyes.
18:20Those eyes were cloudy with age, yet terrifyingly sharp at the same time.
18:24Like the eyes of someone who had seen mountains of corpse on the battlefield.
18:27You need something.
18:28How was I supposed to explain this?
18:30How could I make him trust me?
18:31If you've got nothing to say, get lost.
18:34The Thunderwolf roars through the forest.
18:36The hidden dragon rests in the abyss.
18:38I had spent the entire night thinking up that code.
18:40The token carried the Thunderwolf.
18:42And Alec himself was the hidden dragon trapped in the abyss.
18:45I was gambling that he would understand.
18:47Barnaby jolted violently.
18:50Grabbed my wrist abruptly and shoved me into a small side wing.
18:55The door slammed shut.
18:57Who are you?
18:59He stared at me intently, his voice filled with murderous intent.
19:03Where's the Alpha token?
19:05The moment I handed it to him, his eyes turned red.
19:09Alpha Alec.
19:11The Alpha is still alive.
19:14Is he safe?
19:15I told him everything.
19:16How I found Alec in the pit.
19:18How I smuggled him bread and water.
19:20How I traded for healing Salem.
19:21And how I set the fire to help him escape.
19:24When I finished speaking, Barnaby bowed deeply to me.
19:28The Thunderpack and the Alpha's 30,000 wolf warriors will never forget your kindness, milady.
19:36Barnaby, is Alpha Alec really safe now?
19:39That was the only thing I truly cared about.
19:41He's safe.
19:43Alpha Alec already escaped the palace and reunited with our people outside.
19:53Then, what do we do next?
19:56The Alpha says what he needs most right now is information from inside the castle.
20:01And Iris, you are now the most important piece he has inside this place.
20:06The first thing I need you to do is watch Gamma Tabula closely.
20:12The Alpha wants to know everything about her.
20:16Especially the necklace she's wearing.
20:19Check the symbol carved into it.
20:21And whether she talks in her sleep at night.
20:24I froze for a moment.
20:25The assignment sounded strange.
20:26But if Alec specifically wanted this information, then it had to be important.
20:29I understand.
20:30But how do I pass information to you?
20:32No need to meet face to face.
20:34Write everything down on paper.
20:36Leave it under the dead tree.
20:38Use a stone to keep it in place.
20:40I'll retrieve it myself every night.
20:42I memorized every word carefully.
20:44When I stepped out of the dark guard ring, the sunlight outside felt blindingly bright.
20:50For the first time in my life, my steps felt completely steady.
20:54Because now I knew something clearly.
20:56From this day forward, I was no longer fighting alone.
21:02Behind me stood a fallen king.
21:06And 30,000 low wolf horrors.
21:11Returning to the slave compound, I saw Gamma Tabritha standing in the middle of the courtyard.
21:15When she saw back, that calm little smile was still on her face.
21:19Back already?
21:20You worked hard.
21:21Go wash your face and get some rest.
21:23Her voice was soft.
21:25Too soft.
21:25The hairs on the back of my neck instantly stood up.
21:29Because kindness without reason was always dangerous.
21:32Yes, Gamma.
21:33But even with my back turned, I could still feel her eyes on me.
21:39Warm on the surface.
21:41Sharp underneath.
21:43I had been targeted.
21:46That realization made it hard to breathe.
21:50Tabitha was far more terrifying than Brenda ever was.
21:53How was I supposed to finish Alec's mission?
21:58I had to examine the patterns on her necklace.
22:01And I had to listen for her sleep talking.
22:03Both tasks required me to get close after dark.
22:06But a slave wasn't even allowed near her quarters.
22:13That night, I lay awake until dawn.
22:19By the next morning, I finally made up my mind.
22:22If I wanted an opportunity, I would have to create one myself.
22:29At noon, I carried a large bucket of water past her.
22:37The entire bucket of water sloshed out, soaking Tabitha's clothes.
22:43The entire courtyard instantly fell silent.
22:46Every slave froze where she stood.
22:48They stared at me like I was already dead.
22:51Your name is Iris, right?
22:53Yes!
22:54It was my fault!
22:56Please forgive me!
22:57Since you're this clumsy, you won't need to sleep tonight.
23:01Kneel there and reflect properly.
23:02Let's see if your knees can learn to behave better than your feet.
23:06My heart started pounding wildly.
23:08I had succeeded.
23:13Night came quickly.
23:16The cold cut straight through the bone.
23:19But I knelt stiffly outside Tabitha's room without moving.
23:23Before long, my legs went numb.
23:26But I clenched my teeth and stayed silent.
23:29Because I knew she was watching.
23:33This was her test.
23:35Midnight finally arrived.
23:37The lights inside the room suddenly went dark.
23:40Another hour passed.
23:41From inside the room came the steady sound of breathing.
23:44She was asleep.
23:47My chance had finally come.
23:51I carefully leaned my ear closer to the door, trying to hear if she was talking in her sleep.
23:59Then came the snoring.
24:01And after that, she finally spoke.
24:04Luna.
24:06Sigil.
24:07The Luna Sigil?
24:08The legendary symbol of the Queen?
24:10A metallic sound came from inside the room.
24:14Like a hidden compartment opening.
24:17My heart instantly lapped into my throat.
24:20Was she awake?
24:22I immediately straightened my back and fixed my eyes forward like nothing had happened.
24:27The bedroom door slowly opened a clip.
24:32From inside the darkness, Tabitha's sharp eyes locked onto me.
24:38My back was already soaked in cold sweat.
24:40If I had moved even a little, I probably would have died on the spot.
24:45The door slowly closed again.
24:48I quietly let out a long breath.
24:52It felt like I had just walked back from the gates of hell.
