07:23it's the other way
07:24she's lying so you won't find him
07:27and felix will be kidnapped by the spies
07:30if you don't save him father
07:32you'll think he abandoned his post
07:35you'll lose all trust in him
07:37and it ends with the brothers killing each other
07:40poor felix
07:41perfect
07:42this is the chance to see if this baby's thoughts are actually true
07:47father
07:48i saw signs of a struggle in the opposite direction felix might be over there
07:53in that case split up
07:54search both ways
08:01to the left
08:03hurry
08:04felix is behind that cave
08:06he's barely holding on
08:08hang on felix
08:15felix
08:16felix
08:17we made it just in time
08:19don't worry brother
08:20i am here to save you
08:23i'm so sorry father aleric
08:25i was so panicked on the battlefield that i got confused
08:28i actually meant to point in this direction too
08:31that's enough
08:32we need to treat aleric
08:33just get out
08:49father
08:49there are spies in the border guard
08:51our secret passage
08:52the enemy found it
08:54i know
08:55just focus on recovering
08:57i'll handle the rest
08:58thank god
08:59in the book
08:59the king didn't trust felix
09:01and refused to heal him
09:02he was even going to exile him
09:04felix tried to prove himself by infiltrating the enemy
09:07but he was framed as a spy
09:09and father executed him with his own hands on the battlefield
09:12he died screaming his innocence
09:15am i actually hearing this baby's thoughts
09:17how can she predict the future
09:20father
09:21who is this baby
09:22i've decided to formally adopt her
09:24from this day on she is princess sarah of valeria
09:27what about
09:27nerissa
09:28she hasn't even been officially titled yet
09:30oh my god felix did you lose your brain on the battlefield
09:34you're still worried about that wicked woman
09:36you were hit by a poison arrow remember
09:39she's the one who brewed that poison
09:40she used you as a lab rat to test her dark potions
09:43father
09:45was i poisoned
09:46don't worry
09:48i will get to the bottom of this
09:54father is actually adapting that brit
09:56giving her a royal title
09:57i'm the only princess in this palace
09:59ever since that baby arrived
10:01nothing has gone right
10:02i didn't think a pure soul could have this much influence
10:05if i can't have her soul
10:07i'll kill her
10:08what are you doing here eavesdropping
10:09julian
10:11i was just so worried about felix
10:13worried
10:14i certainly didn't see any sign of that
10:16is it because i'm too clumsy
10:18do you all love the new baby now and don't care about me anymore

12:17julian have you lost your mind?
12:19julian
12:20so you're using the national treasury to entertain a baby
12:23i suppose your kingdom is nearing its end
12:26your understanding of wealth clearly differs from mine
12:29what you see as a national fortune i see as a single day's profit
12:33that's it!
12:34the eternal guardian!
12:36with this, no wicked curse or dark magic can ever touch me

13:19bids 50,000 gold coins
13:21it's not me!
13:22i don't have the money!

13:30figures!
13:31she's been using every pure energy treasure for her vile potions
13:35Alaric
13:35julian is being so mean to me
13:38100,000!
13:40i knew it
13:41he's the easiest to manipulate
13:43one fake tear and he'll hand over the necklace
13:46i can see sarah is very fond of this treasure
13:48since neither of you can afford it
13:50i'll buy it for sarah as a welcome gift
13:52enough!
13:53you two are disgusting ganging up on poor innocent narissa

14:08i knew that prince sebastian looked familiar
14:11it's definitely him
14:12narissa's already in league with him
14:14they're just sure as pushing the price up
14:16in the book julian over 10 times the value just to save face
14:20and half that money went straight into sebastian's pocket
14:23well prince sebastian
14:25i wonder exactly how much you're willing to pay
14:27to play the hero for my sister
14:29half his limit is 1 million gold coins
14:31he'll stop right there and wait for julian to take the bait
14:34nine hundred and ninety thousand gold coins
14:37idiots! always doubling the bid
14:39one more raise from sebastian and julian will definitely hit 2 million
14:43then both the treasure and the money will be mine
14:461 million! anyone else?

16:12brothers watch out! he's got a forbidden scroll hidden in his boot!
16:16he's planning to trigger a lava blurs to burn everyone alive and fake it as an accident!
16:23he's going to kill me!
16:29in the original story it's exactly this auction that real his father's trust in at julian!
16:34that's how at julian started his downward spiral into ruin! julian! don't let nerissa and sebastian destroy you!
16:41this entire mess is a trap they set up together!
16:45i planned to use julian for a bitmending but you forced me!
16:50today that sapphire necklace must be mine!
16:52this entire mess is a trap!
17:01you're running out of space!
17:02sebastian, did you forget this auction house is my property?
17:06you are declaring open war on the kingdom of valeria!
17:21you're declaring open war on the kingdom of valeria!
17:22He looks so cool!
17:24I knew Julian was a genius in both business and magic!
17:28Did you hear that?
17:29Sarah definitely likes me more.
17:36Since Prince can't afford it, I'm taking this necklace.
17:41This is my official gift to Sarah.
17:44No!
17:45That's mine!
17:49That's mine!
17:51Oh my god, is Nerissa actually having a meltdown right now?
17:55Her dark magic isn't even finished yet.
17:58Showing her true face now will be a huge mistake.
18:01She still needs the Divine Stagger's antlers from the upcoming royal hunt.
18:06Julian, Alaric only cares about the baby now.
18:10You can't be biased against me too, can you?
18:12You used to cherish me the most!
18:13Look at you.
18:14Everything you're wearing, from dress to every piece of jewelry,
18:17all paid for by me, now that you mention it.
18:19I need to get Sarah a gift.
18:21I'm buying out every single item from today's auction.
18:24Send it all to the palace as gifts to Sarah.
18:28Wow! Julian is the best!
18:30He's literally a walking goldmine!
18:32He's so rich and powerful!
18:35I love this CEO vibe!
18:37Julian is my absolute favorite!
18:41You've all been bewitched by this mysterious brat!
18:45I'm going back to tell Father and Felix!
18:48They'll make this right!
18:52What grievances do you have to report?
18:54Since we're all here, why don't you tell me yourself?
18:56Wow!
18:58Father and Felix look so cool making an entrance like that!
19:10Felix!
19:11You're finally here!
19:13They're ganging up on me with that little brat!
19:15You have to do something!
19:16Don't cry.
19:19You are my most precious sister.
19:21I will make sure justice is served for you.
19:24Felix hasn't even touched that brat yet.
19:26He's still under my spell.
19:28With him on my side, no one dared to touch me.
19:31Oh no!
19:33I remember now!
19:34Nerissa's poison arrows contain a mind control curse!
19:39In the book, that's how she manipulated Felix into entering the enemy camp alone to frame him as a spy!
19:47Help!
19:48The poison in that Felix isn't gone yet!
19:51Father!
19:52Alaric!
19:53Julian!
19:54Save him!
19:55He's being controlled by that witch again!
20:05Get off me!
20:09Oh my god!
20:10My brothers are way too cool!
20:13That seamless coordination was a perfect 10!
20:16Julian refining, Alaric assisting, and Felix waking up?
20:21So badass!
20:24Alaric, bring Sarah to me.
20:27I want to hold the little one too.
20:30I almost forgot about this old geezer.
20:34Don't tell me he still can't see the truth and plans to punish Julian!
20:38In the book, Alaric just tried to speak up for Julian, and this old man banished them to the Black
20:44Dormian Abyss for the royal hunt!
20:46He called it training, but it was a death sentence!
20:49They were swarmed by high level beasts.
20:52Alaric lost a leg, and Julian's manor veins were shattered protecting him.
20:57He became a total cripple.
20:59Father, may I hold Sarah as well?
21:02And then there's poor Felix!
21:04He was supposed to be the champion of the hunt, titled the God of War, and lead our armies to
21:09victory.
21:10But in the book, Nerissa made sure he never even made it back from the border.
21:15The next time he saw father was on the battlefield as enemies.
21:19Such a tragic...
21:20Enough!
21:21You're just ganging up on me!
21:22When my father finishes his meditation, he'll slaughter you all!
21:26Fine.
21:26Since you're so confident, we'll see you at the royal hunt!
21:29Let's see who kills who!
21:31Return to the palace!
21:39Don't touch me!
21:40Aren't you afraid I'll run over there right now and tell them exactly who you really are?
21:45Useless trash!
21:46Stay away from me!
21:47If it weren't for my grand plan, I'd rip your tongue out right now!
21:49How could you think that?
21:50I'm only using them to gather intelligence.
21:53Don't forget, we are allies for the hunt.
21:56You'd better mean that.
22:02Tomorrow is the royal hunt.
22:05All three of you will participate and fight for the honor of Valeria.
22:10This old man is so stubborn, he's a hopeless case.
22:13He knows it's a trap, and he's still sending them!
22:16Nerissa and Sebastian have already set a deadly trap in the mist forest.
22:20My three tall, handsome, rich brothers are walking straight to their deaths.
22:28I'll have secret guards watching Nerissa.
22:30She won't be allowed to leave the palace.
22:33Wait, the old geezer is actually waking up?
22:35Looks like Nerissa's little act is falling apart!
22:38As for Sarah, she cannot go.
22:40I will stay at the palace to protect her personally.
22:43Are you kidding me?
22:45I take it back!
22:46How can you leave me here with Nerissa?
22:49She'll suck my soul dry while you're napping!
22:53Help!
22:53I wanna go to the hunt with my brothers!
22:56Don't leave me in this death trap!
22:58Father, I think we should take Sarah with us.
23:03Exactly!
23:04She has Mother's Ring and the Eternal Guardian.
23:06In terms of defense, she's actually the safest one among us.
23:10Sarah is our lucky star.
23:12Who knows?
23:14Maybe she'll be the one protecting us.
23:16There's definitely a generation gap with the old man.
23:19My brothers are the best.
23:22Fine, fine.
23:23Have it your way.
23:24But the four of you must stay together.
23:26Do not let your guard down.
23:30Welcome to the annual royal hunt.
23:33Whoever captures the legendary sacred stag will be crowned this year's champion.
23:40Now, I declare, let the hunt begin!
23:52Nerissa?
23:54What are you doing here?
23:57You three must have pitied me so it didn't wake me up.
24:00That's why I'm a bit late.
24:02Nonsense!
24:02Who authorized your release?
24:04You are not participating in this hunt.
24:06Return to the palace at once!
24:07Why?
24:08Why can a foundling baby go but I, your daughter, cannot?
24:12Father, you are being far too biased.
24:14This is a royal command.
24:18You old fool getting in my way.
24:20Since you're so eager to die, I'll kill you first!
24:23Oh no!
24:24She used dark magic to force a power boost so she could wipe out my brothers!
24:28She can't control the energy!
24:30She's about to strike father!
24:32Look out, old man!
24:33Nerissa!
24:34The forest is incredibly dangerous.
24:36Father is only concerned for your safety.
24:40My, my!
24:41If you brothers don't want Nerissa, I certainly do.
24:45Nerissa!
24:46Since your brothers don't cherish you, come with me instead.
24:49Fine!
24:50Since you're so eager to be the fool, take her with you.
24:52Brothers, let's move out.
24:54Sarah is losing her patience.
24:55That baby is a total jinx.
24:58Nothing but bad luck whenever she's around.
25:00Fine.
25:01I'll go without Sebastian for now and wait for the perfect moment to strike.
25:05Then I thank you, Prince Sebastian.
25:07Let's go.
25:16Bore at 50 meters to the left.
25:19Combat power, two stars.
25:21Juliet can handle it with a snap of his fingers.
25:24But do not touch that sweet smelling grass straight ahead.
25:27It's a soul eater spider trap.
25:29Nerissa said it's specific for Felix because she knows he loves the scent of that herb.
25:34That was close.
25:36I almost fell for it again.
25:37Felix, what's wrong?
25:39Nothing.
25:40I just feel like the mist is getting thicker.
25:43Of course it's thick.
25:44Sebastian has already activated the forbidden scroll.
25:47He's turning this forest into an inescapable labyrinth.
25:51Julia, do you have any treasures that can break through a labyrinth seal?
25:53This seems completely useless against the seal taint with dark magic.
25:57Of course it won't work.
25:58The forest's guardian, the sacred stag, has been trapped by the wicked array they set up beforehand.
26:04With the stag trapped, the forest's purication is gone.
26:08If you guys don't find the stag and break the seal by midnight,
26:11every pure soul in this forest will become a hero for Nerissa's dark magic.
26:15That includes me!
26:17She'll drain me dry!
26:18Help, help, help!
26:20Since we can't walk out of here, locate the stag directly.
26:23Don't be afraid, Sarah.
26:25As long as we're here, we won't let anything happen to you.
26:28Whoa!
26:29My brothers are the best!
26:31Come on, think!
26:33Where exactly is the sacred stag?
26:35Ah!
26:36I remember now!
26:37It's under that withered millennial oak tree.
26:40That's the heart of the forest and the center of the array.
26:44The stag is trapped in a dark magic seal called the Eternal Cage.
26:51The poor stag!
26:53Those black chains are draining its life force!
26:56Brothers, look!
26:57There are four skulls around the array!
26:59Those are the anchor points!
27:01They must be destroyed at the same time!
27:05Four anchor points, but there are only three of us.
27:07There's me too!
27:09The sapphire necklace around my neck!
27:11The Eternal Guardian!
27:13Its power is the perfect counter for this evil stuff!
27:16Just throw it over!
27:17Mr. Sarah, this is our only shot!
27:23Julian, Felix, get ready.
27:25On three.
27:27One, two, three!
27:38You're useless!
27:39You couldn't even keep the Labyrinth seal intact!
27:41And you promised they'd never return!
27:45What do you know?
27:46You think they've won just because they freed that stag?
27:50That was the trap within the trap!
27:52The true dark magic isn't in those skulls!
27:55It is inside the stag itself!
27:57As long as they get close to that beast, the curse triggers!
28:00Just watch!
28:01They'll all be dead within seconds!
28:09Stop! Stop!
28:10Alaric, don't go any closer!
28:12That stag is a time bomb!
28:14Nerysha planted a void curse in its heart!
28:17It's going to blow!
28:18No!
28:19Alaric?
28:20What is it?
28:21What do I do?
28:22It's too late!
28:23The curse is already dead, Alaric!
28:25I'm alive!
28:32TAR-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A!
28:47My god, the sacred stag of this forest has submitted to her on its own.
28:52It's a soul covenant.
28:53From now on, the power of this entire forest belongs to her.
28:57As long as she stands on this land, she is practically a goddess.
29:03Brothers!
29:08Sarah, is that you?
29:09Oh my god, I'm grown up.
29:12I can speak.
29:13Heaven has finally to its senses.
29:18Brothers.
29:20Sarah, you can speak.
29:22I can actually talk.
29:25Finally, all the things I've been screaming in my head, I can finally say them out loud.
29:31How can this be?
29:34Where is my power?
29:36Where is my dark magic?
29:38It seems the forest's spiritual energy has drained you dry.
29:49The sacred stag has bonded with my daughter.
29:52Father, the sacred stag has bonded its soul to Sarah.
29:55Volodia has won this year's hunt.
30:03Father, father, save me!
30:05Sebastian tricked me!
30:07He wants to kill me!
30:08Finally, this moment, after holding it in for so long, this time I am saying it out loud.
30:15This gentle, kind, at Prince Enorissi is, in truth, a witch who has practiced dark magic for many years.
30:23Before this hunt, she forced her dark magic past its limit, hoping to wipe out my brothers in the forest.
30:29But the forest's pure energy turned against her.
30:31And now, every ounce of her power is gone.
30:36Felix poisoning, Ajulian's framing, all those strange events in the palace, it was all your dying.
30:48So what if it was?
30:50All of this was supposed to be mine.
30:53Father's love.
30:54The princess's devotion.
30:56The fate of the kingdom.
30:57Until that filthy thing from the wilderness appeared.
31:00She stole my destiny.
31:02She took everything that was supposed to be mine.
31:05I did not steal your destiny.
31:07You chose your own path of no return.
31:11If I cannot have anything, then you shall have nothing in either!
31:16Enough!
31:17Sarah!
31:36Sarah!
31:40Sarah!
31:41Open your eyes!
31:42You vile witch!
31:46She's dead!
31:47She's dead!
31:48My destiny has returned to me!
31:53There's...
31:54There's still a heartbeat.
31:56Your Majesty!
31:57The little princess's soul has been sealed by dark magic.
32:01She...
32:01She has fallen into a deep slumber.
32:04How can this be undone?
32:05The curse is bound to the caster's last drop of life force.
32:09It will not lift until that magic naturally fades.
32:13Or...
32:13Unless some miracle occurs.
32:15Narasa.
32:16I once raised you as my own, granted you the title of princess.
32:20Today you have wielded dark magic, poisoned the royal house, and struck down my own daughter.
32:24I hereby decree, you are stripped of your status as a ward of Valoria, and of every title bestowed upon
32:30you.
32:30From this day forth, you are banished from this kingdom, never to return!
32:35Father!
32:36One day you will regret this!
32:40Home.
32:41Let us go home.
32:44Home!
32:46Little one, let me hear your voice one more time, please.
32:53Brother, I'll go after Narisha and force her to undo the curse with her own hands!
32:57It's no use.
32:58Her magic is gone.
32:59She can do nothing now.
33:01From the day Father brought this little one home from the wilderness,
33:04every single day we heard her chattering in our minds.
33:07It's so loud, so annoying.
33:11And yet now...
33:13Hmm.
33:14Why is it so dark?
33:16Where is this?
33:17Sarah?
33:19I feel like I'm dreaming.
33:21But this dream feels so real.
33:24I can feel someone holding my hand.
33:27Brother, you heard that too.
33:29We heard it!
33:31It's Sarah.
33:32It's her voice.
33:35What is it?
33:37Has Sarah woken?
33:38Hmm.
33:39Do I smell hot milk?
33:41Is that Father?
33:42Father, why are you up this late warming milk for me?
33:46You're not getting younger.
33:47You need your rest.
33:50Sarah.
33:51My Sarah.
33:53You're still here.
33:58Sarah, I caught you a spirit squirrel from the holy mountains of the north.
34:02They say its call brings joy to whoever hears it.
34:05It's so noisy.
34:07Who's squeaking right in my ear?
34:09Out, out, out!
34:11You're disturbing the princess's sleep!
34:14Brother, you haven't slept in three days.
34:17It's fine.
34:18Why am I asleep?
34:20I remember exposing Neressa.
34:23And then she lunged at me.
34:25No, wait.
34:26Why did I grow to seven years old?
34:29I rushed it.
34:31In the original story, Nerissa was supposed to be cornered by many forces much later.
34:36Only then driven to her dead end.
34:39I exposed her too early.
34:41She still had her last breath of magic when I did.
34:44It was not supposed to happen this way.
34:46I sped up everyone's bait.
34:48I bent the entire story by force.
34:52And now it's bending back on me.
34:56Then, how do I wake up?
34:59Let the story return to its rightful course.
35:03In the original story, Nerissa does not die so easily.
35:06She flees to Sebastian's kingdom, claims to have gained the gift of prophecy, and ignites war between the two kingdoms.
35:11Then she is outwitted, exposed, discarded, and meets a wretched end.
35:15That is her true ending in the book.
35:18I have to let the story follow that thread.
35:20Only when Nerissa walks her original fate to the end will I have any chance of waking.
35:26But I am asleep now.
35:29I can do nothing.
35:30How would father and my brothers ever know all this?
35:35You heard her?
35:37Yes.
35:38Let the original plot unfold as it should.
35:40Now this is interesting.
35:42My foolish little girl.
35:44You think father and your brothers would ever let you bear this alone?
35:48Our spies report that Nerissa has slipped into the Vervemont Palace alone and sought audience with Sebastian.
35:54Useless!
35:55Her magic is gone!
35:57Why didn't our men intercept her on the road?
35:59Felix, did you forget what Sarah said?
36:00The story must return to its rightful course.
36:03Nerissa fleeing to Sebastian was always part of the original plot.
36:06So we... help her?
36:08Help her perform this play to its very last act.
36:11Let the wretched ending the original book wrote for her fall upon her word for word.
36:17Well, well.
36:19If it isn't the cast-out Princess of Valeria, what brings you here?
36:24Your Highness, I have come to help you unite the two kingdoms.
36:29You? A powerless wretch?
36:31With what do you plan to help me?
36:34My dark magic may be gone,
36:36but in the moment of the backlash I gain something far more terrifying.
36:41What thing?
36:42The gift of prophecy.
36:44I can see every movement of Valeria's armor.
36:48Words alone prove nothing.
36:50If you want me to believe you, you'll have to prove it.
36:54Tell me how, Your Highness.
36:56I will do anything.
36:58I may have lost my magic,
37:00but my spy inside Valeria's palace was never discovered.
37:04That is enough.
37:09In the original story, Narissa's first move was to use her hidden contact inside the palace to feed intel to
37:15Sebastian.
37:20Sarah said there is a spy of Narissa's inside the palace, feeding intelligence to Sebastian.
37:26As I expected.
37:27A stable boy in the palace named Marcus.
37:31Every three days, he leaves under the pretest of delivering feed,
37:35each time by a different route at a different hour.
37:38Seize him.
37:40Question him under whatever measure necessary.
37:43Father, no.
37:45He is our finest tool for sending Narissa to her doom.
37:50We shall feed Narissa exactly the intelligence she craves.
37:56Your Highness, this woman's origins are dubious.
38:00Will you really entrust military secrets to her prophecies?
38:04I want to see for myself whether her boasts can withstand scrutiny.
38:10Speak.
38:11Predict every troop movement Valeria will make in the coming month.
38:15My ministers will record every word.
38:17In seven days, Valeria will depatch 3,000 elite troops to the Eastern Frontier,
38:23with Prince Julian personally overseeing the supplies.
38:27In ten days, the northern garrison rotates,
38:29and Prince Felix is ordered to train new recruits in the north.
38:33In other words, on the 8th of next month,
38:36Valeria's Eastern Frontier will be an empty city,
38:40defended only by leaderless reserves.
38:43Such precision.
38:44And how am I to verify this?
38:46Send your Highness' most trusted spy into Valeria to verify.
38:50I stake my own head on the truth of it.
38:53And so the sleeping princess waited,
38:55and waited,
38:57for a thousand years.
38:59Narissa attended Sebastian's war council today.
39:03She predicts our army's movements.
39:06In the original story,
39:08Sebastian sends a spy to Valeria to verify.
39:11This is the critical moment for our false intelligence.
39:13If the spy sees what Narissa said,
39:16word for word,
39:17Sebastian will believe her completely.
39:19But how would father and my brothers
39:21ever think this far ahead?
39:23Your Highness,
39:25every word Princess Narissa spake
39:26is true.
39:32Excellent.
39:32What a goddess of prophecy.
39:34Issue my command.
39:35In ten days,
39:36our army marches.
39:37We crush Valeria's Eastern Frontier
39:39in a single strike!
39:46Help me seize Valeria,
39:48and I shall make you my queen.
39:50Foolish man.
39:52Once I am your queen,
39:53and bear your son,
39:55all of Viramond will also be mine.
40:04Felix,
40:05the enemy is too strong.
40:07We are not prepared.
40:08Per the plan,
40:09retreat.
40:10Abandon the city,
40:12and fall back to the second line of defense!
40:23A glorious first victory,
40:25Your Highness.
40:27Let me toast you.
40:29You are far more useful
40:30than I expected.
40:31Your Highness,
40:33I have seen another vision.
40:35In three days,
40:36only Prince Alaric
40:38will hold Valeria's
40:39second line of defense.
40:41Prince Julian
40:42will have already retreated
40:43to the capital.
40:44If Your Highness
40:45leads the raid in person,
40:47Prince Alaric
40:48can be captured
40:49in a single strike.
40:52Alaric!
40:53That hordy,
40:54cold-faced
40:55heir of Valeria!
40:56I shall have him
40:57groveling at my feet!
41:01Did Sarah send you
41:03to protect me as well?
41:08Alaric!
41:08Heir of Valeria!
41:11Surprised, are you?
41:12Tonight I come
41:13for your head!
41:22Welcome.
41:32An empty city,
41:33just as she said.
41:35Neressa,
41:35this time I shall reward
41:37you handsomely.
41:43From this day forth,
41:46Valeria's second defense line
41:47also belongs to me!
41:52The proud heir of Valeria
41:54kneeling at my feet.
41:55How does it feel?
41:57You should not have come yourself.
41:59I came precisely
42:00because I wanted to.
42:12I came to the
42:14The intelligence
42:15clearly stated
42:15Valeria's main force
42:16was still in the capital.
42:19Princess,
42:20Valeria's main army
42:21is closing in
42:21from west,
42:22south,
42:22and north.
42:23Our line of retreat
42:24has been cut!
42:27My intelligence
42:29could not be wrong.
42:31You set me up!
42:34Not me.
42:36It was my little sister
42:37who still lies sleeping.
42:57Father,
42:59Alaric,
42:59we did it.
43:02Yes,
43:03my Sarah.
43:04We did it.
43:05No!
43:06No!
43:07No!
43:07No!
43:08No!
43:09No!
43:14You lying witch!
43:16You have doomed
43:17his highness!
43:23Impossible.
43:24How can this be?
43:29Speak.
43:30The child in your Bemi,
43:32is it mine?
43:34Your highness,
43:35of course it is yours.
43:41Your highness,
43:43this young woman
43:44is not with child at all.
43:47You wretched horde!
43:49You dared perceive me!
43:51Calm yourself,
43:52your highness.
43:53There is yet one more thing
43:54you do not know.
43:55Speak!
43:57This princess Nerissa
43:58is no true Valeria princess.
44:01She is an orphan
44:02our father took him
44:03twenty years ago
44:04from the chaos of war.
44:07What?
44:08A ward?
44:10I, Sebastian,
44:11lost an army
44:12and disgraced my crown
44:13for a swindling woman
44:16without a drop
44:18of royal blood.
44:20Let me end her
44:22with my own hands.
44:23Stop!
44:24Nerissa
44:25is a fugitive
44:26of Valeria.
44:28Her judgment
44:29is not
44:30yours to deliver.
44:39Sebastian,
44:40crown prince of Viramont,
44:42you initiated
44:42unprovoked war
44:43and invaded Valeria,
44:45bringing suffering
44:46upon the people
44:46of both lands.
44:48By the treaty
44:49between our two kingdoms,
44:50how shall you be judged?
44:52Your majesty
44:53of Valeria,
44:54our king will cede
44:55six eastern border cities
44:57in reperution
44:58plus ten thousand gold
45:00coins annually
45:01for twenty years,
45:03begging only
45:04for the life
45:05of our crown prince.
45:07So be it.
45:08Prince Sebastian
45:09will remain in Valeria
45:10as a hostage
45:11for two years
45:12to oversee the reparations.
45:13He may return home
45:15only after that term
45:16is fulfilled.
45:17Nerissa,
45:18you were my ward.
45:19I treated you
45:20as my own daughter
45:21and yet,
45:22you practiced
45:22the dark arts,
45:23poisoned my youngest son,
45:24framed my second,
45:25conspired against
45:26the royal house,
45:27committed high treason
45:28and struck
45:29down my own
45:30daughter.
45:31Father,
45:32do you still not see?
45:34I was meant to be
45:35your only daughter,
45:36the only princess
45:37of Valeria.
45:38Your son's devotion,
45:40your tender love,
45:40the fate of this kingdom,
45:42all of it
45:42was meant to be mine!
45:47Until that filthy thing
45:48from the Underless
45:49appeared.
45:50She stole my place!
45:52She took the destiny
45:53that was supposed
45:53to be mine!
45:55From the day
45:56you first touched
45:57dark magic,
45:58you ceased
45:58to be my daughter.
46:00By the laws
46:01of Valeria,
46:02one who wields
46:03dark magic
46:03and conspires
46:04against the crown
46:05shall be stripped
46:06of all titles,
46:07exiled to the
46:08Frozen Islands,
46:09never to return.
46:10No!
46:11Not the Frozen Islands!
46:13All of this
46:13was supposed
46:14to be mine!
46:15All of this
46:16was supposed
46:16to be mine!
46:17Was supposed
46:18to be mine!
46:19The Frozen Islands!
46:21The Frozen Islands!
46:29Your Highness,
46:31tomorrow is the
46:31little princess's
46:32coronation.
46:33His Majesty
46:34has decreed
46:34tonight,
46:35no one is to
46:36keep vigil.
46:37He will sit
46:37with her alone.
46:39Very well.
46:40The Frozen Islands!
46:44Little one, tomorrow is your coronation.
46:46These past few years, father has aged greatly.
46:49Coronation? Me?
46:52I've slept so long.
46:55The story should have returned to its course long ago.
46:58Why have I not woken?
47:00What is still missing?
47:02What is missing?
47:05My Sarah, tomorrow is your coronation.
47:08This crown was worn by your mother on the day of her own coronation.
47:12Her greatest regret, before she passed, was never seeing her own daughter wear it.
47:18Sarah, you have slept for so long.
47:21These past years, your father and your three brothers have done everything imaginable.
47:26Neressa is exiled to the frozen isles.
47:29Sebastian has paid his price and returned home.
47:31Valoria has never been stronger.
47:33And yet, there remains a hollow place in my heart.
47:39Father does not lack a daughter.
47:42Father lacks you.
47:44It matters not how the crown sits upon you.
47:47If only you would wake.
47:49If only you would call me father one more time.
47:51I would surrender all the rest.
48:03Father.
48:06Sarah, my Sarah.
48:09Father.
48:10Sarah has come home.
48:14I am not the heroine of this story.
48:16I am only a daughter, lifted from the wilderness by her father's hands.
48:21This time, I will simply be that daughter.
48:29Father didn't return all night.
48:31I thought something had happened.
48:32Good morning, Felix.
48:35Why does Felix look at me like he's seen a ghost?
48:38It's not as if I actually died.
48:42Sarah, you're awake!
48:43You're awake!
48:45Felix!
48:46My milk is going to spill.
48:49Sarah.
48:51Sarah.
48:52Sarah.
48:52Brother, I've waited for you for so long.
48:55Goodness.
48:56So much commotion this early in the morning.
48:57My eyeliner is going to run.
48:59Julian, when have you ever worn eyeliner?
49:01Sarah, the coronation.
49:04Do you wish for it to precede a schedule?
49:05Yes.
49:06Sarah is father's daughter.
49:08Sarah is the princess of Velouria.
49:10From today onward, Sarah will truly bear this name.
49:14I have never asked you, Sarah.
49:17Do you truly wish to call me father?
49:20Yes.
49:22It was you who lifted Sarah from the wilderness.
49:25You have given Sarah everything.
49:29Father, Sarah once came from a place far, far away.
49:33But from the moment I woke, I have known my true home is here.
49:38Where you came from, I never cared.
49:41I only cared whether you would stay.
49:51My dearest little princess, will you allow your brother Felix the honor of escorting you in?
50:13May the glory of Princess Serafina of Velouria endure forever.
50:18May my little sister know nothing but joy all her days.
50:22May our Sarah be cherished by the whole world, always.
50:26From this day forth, you are Princess Serafina of Velouria,
50:30bearer of the crown's honor of our glory, of every pure soul in this land.
50:36People of Velouria, welcome your princess!
50:44I once believed I was the one who chose my destiny.
50:48Then destiny pushed me into a place I never knew,
50:51turning me into a baby abandoned in the wilderness with nothing but tears.
50:56I thought I would change everything.
50:58But the truth is, my father in this place and my three brothers,
51:02with their love, piece by piece, made me into the true Serafina.
51:07This time I do not choose my destiny.
51:10I accept it, because what destiny gave me is the most precious family in this world.
