00:00:15Ethan, this is the ice crystal you formed with your very first spell.
00:00:21Today is your birthday. Father and I had it made into a pendant, just for you.
00:00:33Ethan, stay here while mother goes to buy you a sweet cake, alright?
00:00:37No, we need that money for father's medicine.
00:00:40But today is your birthday. Birthdays mean sweet cakes.
00:00:45Really? Thank you, mother.
00:00:53Excuse me, do you have anything a little cheaper?
00:00:56No.
00:00:57Please, sir. My son's birthday is today.
00:01:00He's always wanted a sweet cake, even just a small piece.
00:01:03Out! Go buy your scraps at the end of the street.
00:01:09Ethan, you'll have sweet cakes for his birthday today. I promise.
00:01:16Get out of the way!
00:01:43Child! Child! Where are this boy's parents?
00:01:50This is... formed from ice magic.
00:01:55He carries a talent for ice magic. A skill that hasn't appeared in 300 years.
00:02:07Ethan! Ethan! I got you your cake!
00:02:10Ethan? Ethan!
00:02:16Have you seen Ethan?
00:02:17Ethan! Have you seen Ethan?
00:02:20Ethan!
00:02:21Ethan! Ethan! My son!
00:02:34Doctor, the boy
00:02:35The injuries are severe
00:02:36You'll need high-level healing magic
00:02:38Head to the main city at once
00:02:40Did you hear me?
00:02:41Open the portal, now!
00:02:50Forgive me, child
00:02:51The kingdom needs you
00:02:53More than they do
00:02:59Ethan, my soul
00:03:10Desperate your heart
00:03:31And here
00:03:32Perhaps someone here
00:03:34Will have seen Ethan
00:03:50Ethan, father will find you
00:03:53I swear it
00:03:54Let's go
00:04:18The final
00:04:21Oh, my God.
00:04:57My Lord, Ethan, you have become the greatest mage in the kingdom.
00:05:03From this day forward, you are the new Grand Commander of the Legion.
00:05:06Father, the Legion is in good hands. Please, go and rest.
00:05:13This is the construction plan for the Frost Village training camp.
00:05:17Go and oversee the site yourself.
00:05:21But I worry about you.
00:05:24Go. Frost Village is your home.
00:05:27This once hung around your neck.
00:05:29Forgive me, child.
00:05:30All these years I kept you so you could serve the kingdom.
00:05:33Selfishly, I took from your family.
00:05:35Go now. Your parents must still be waiting for you.
00:05:40Today is your birthday.
00:05:42Father and I had it made into a pendant just for you.
00:05:45Mother.
00:05:46Mother.
00:05:55Ethan, where are you? I miss you so much.
00:05:59Lucy, wonderful news. The most wonderful news.
00:06:04Victor, is it Ethan? Do you have news of Ethan?
00:06:11Ethan?
00:06:13Why would I bring up that useless boy?
00:06:15The Royal Magic Legion is building a new training camp in the Northern Territory.
00:06:19All of Frost Village is being cleared, including that broken shack of yours.
00:06:25My son Marcus bargained for you.
00:06:28Fifty gold coin in settlement.
00:06:31They're tearing down our house?
00:06:32That's right.
00:06:37No, we can't. If our house is gone, Ethan will have nowhere to come home to. I have to go
00:06:44back and protect it.
00:06:53Welcome, Commander.
00:06:55Commander, the clearance work in the Northern Territory is nearly complete. There's one household that refuses to sign the eviction
00:07:02notice. Shall we... force the matter?
00:07:05The Legion does not do forced evictions. I'll speak to them myself.
00:07:11Yes, sir.
00:07:23Have you ever met Ethan?
00:07:36Auntie Lucy! What are you doing? The new Legion Commander is here. Put that thing away before you get me
00:07:41killed.
00:07:42Marcus, please.
00:07:43Your commander has surely met many people. Perhaps he's seen my Ethan. Let me just go and ask.
00:07:57Wake up! Your son is dead. Get out of my sight.
00:08:01No. Ethan isn't dead. He's not.
00:08:03Out of the way!
00:08:18Strange. The boy in this portrait looks just like I did as a child.
00:08:33Sam, my brother in arms. Let me handle this one alone. Commander Aldrich sent me to assist you.
00:08:37He believes Lord Garrett, Governor of the Northern Territory, is trouble.
00:08:42Then find out where this plan came from. I'll arrange it at once.
00:08:46Wait here for my news. I'm going to Frost Village myself.
00:08:49Contact me the moment you have something.
00:08:50Understood.
00:08:52Portals won't do for the road ahead. Find me a carriage.
00:08:55Let's go.
00:09:23Mom, Mom!
00:09:25Father, Mother, are you here? It's been 20 years. Have you been alright?
00:09:32Ethan, today is your 25th birthday. Where are you? I miss you so much.
00:09:42Thomas, this time, did you find anything?
00:09:46Nothing yet, but Ethan turns 25 today. Perhaps once the birthday passes, he'll find his own way home.
00:09:52Yes. Maybe he's married by now. Maybe we're already grandparents.
00:10:00If I can't find him in this kingdom, I'll go to the next. If not the next, until I search
00:10:05the whole world.
00:10:06Ethan is coming back. He will. Now, no more tears. Victor is coming today.
00:10:14They haven't visited in years. Why come today of all days on Ethan's birthday?
00:10:18Perhaps they miss him too.
00:10:32Ethan.
00:10:35I have a pony!
00:10:37Hey!
00:10:39I'm a cavalry soldier. Ha!
00:10:51Ethan, this is your birthday present this year.
00:11:05Commander, your disguise as requested.
00:11:09Good. Exactly what I need to stay low.
00:11:13Where is the household that refused to sign the eviction notice?
00:11:17Commander, a mid-ranking officer in the Northern Division claims to be their relative.
00:11:21He has volunteered to speak with them again.
00:11:24Fine. Let him try. I'll walk around.
00:11:27Notify me when there's news.
00:11:29Yes, sir.
00:11:31Garrett cannot be trusted.
00:11:33Garrett cannot be trusted. I need to see for myself.
00:11:43Mama! Mama!
00:11:47This place. It feels so familiar. I've been here before.
00:11:58Victor, welcome. Come in.
00:12:01Enough pleasanties. My son is here to discuss the demolition.
00:12:06Sign this. 50 gold coins, up front.
00:12:09No. This is Ethan's home. If he comes back and there's nothing here, how will he find us?
00:12:15That's right. We stay and wait for our son.
00:12:2050 gold coins and you still won't sign?
00:12:22Have you ever seen that much money in your life?
00:12:25I don't want money. I want my son.
00:12:29Don't push your luck! Lucy!
00:12:31An ice crystal crest, formed of magic?
00:12:36Where did you get this? Did you steal it?
00:12:38No! You can't take that! It's how I'll find my Ethan!
00:12:40Want the crest? Kneel and beg. Then maybe I'll consider it.
00:12:43You go too far!
00:12:47Thomas!
00:12:50Believe me, I'll smash it right now!
00:13:04That crest is my only hope of finding Ethan. Please! Please!
00:13:10Look at her! She's actually kneeling for some boy who may be dead!
00:13:17Give it back.
00:13:20I'll give it back. Sign first.
00:13:26Come on!
00:13:30Could this be? Will I find my parents inside?
00:13:40No! I will not give up our home!
00:13:44Then I smash it.
00:13:46Stop!
00:13:47The crest is the only way Ethan will know me. If I lose it, I'll never find my son again.
00:13:53Alright. I'll sign.
00:13:55Then crawl over here to do it.
00:14:02Good heavens! All that for a pathetic brat!
00:14:07What can she do? It's her only chance at finding that wretch.
00:14:13Now, give it back to me.
00:14:16Want it? Crawl over and beg.
00:14:30Please, give it back.
00:14:33I told you. Just sign the notice. Why make things hard?
00:14:38You promised.
00:14:40You defied me. You chose that cursed brat.
00:14:43This is the price. You will never see him.
00:14:46Never!
00:14:47No! No!
00:14:51I'll make sure you can never find that bastard.
00:14:54Please, stop!
00:14:54Not for the rest of your life.
00:15:01That pattern.
00:15:03Still defying me?
00:15:05Then die!
00:15:06Stop!
00:15:23What a dramatic entrance.
00:15:24It's just a grimy blacksmith.
00:15:26Mind your own business or I'll beat you too.
00:15:29You'd strike someone? Bold of you.
00:15:32Legion code forbids the use of force against civilians.
00:15:35Did you forget every word of it?
00:15:38What does a blacksmith know about the law?
00:15:52Wake up, Thomas!
00:15:54What do we do?
00:16:01Are you alright?
00:16:02I'm fine.
00:16:04Marcus was forcing me to sign the eviction notice.
00:16:08This man stopped him.
00:16:12So you clearly know Legion law.
00:16:14I beg you, help us further.
00:16:17That eviction notice was signed under duress.
00:16:19You signed it!
00:16:20No taking it back!
00:16:22Please, sir.
00:16:24We cannot lose this house.
00:16:26We have to stay and wait for our son.
00:16:29I will see that justice is done.
00:16:32You have my word.
00:16:40Could they really be?
00:16:43Where did you get that ice crystal crest?
00:16:45My son made it when he was young.
00:16:48The first time he ever used magic.
00:16:51He's been gone for 20 years.
00:16:52The last day it was your birthday.
00:16:54The father and I had it made into a pendant just for years.
00:17:14Ethan.
00:17:16You...
00:17:16You're my Ethan.
00:17:17Ethan.
00:17:19This isn't a dream.
00:17:23It isn't.
00:17:25My son is home.
00:17:27Father, mother.
00:17:28I've been gone for so long.
00:17:30I've made you search so hard.
00:17:33Forgive me.
00:17:36As long as you're home, nothing else matters.
00:17:39Your brat is back.
00:17:40This isn't worth celebrating.
00:17:43Right.
00:17:44He's just a blacksmith who hammers plows.
00:17:49Today I am reunited with my parents.
00:17:52I will not let the likes of you ruin it.
00:17:54Get out.
00:17:55Big talk.
00:17:56Do you know who my son is?
00:17:58He's a mid-ranking officer in the Northern Division of the Legion.
00:18:02A man with a future.
00:18:07You're in the Legion?
00:18:09Who is your superior?
00:18:12What's wrong?
00:18:13Never heard of Lord Garret?
00:18:15Governor of the Northern Territory?
00:18:16I suppose a Backwell peasant like you wouldn't know your betters.
00:18:19Marcus was kind to even teach you Lord Garret's name.
00:18:22He's just a governor.
00:18:24One word from me and he'll come crawling.
00:18:30How dare you!
00:18:31Who do you think you are?
00:18:33Ah!
00:18:34Don't you know?
00:18:35Lord Garret runs this entire territory.
00:18:38What would a common blacksmith know?
00:18:39My son is strong.
00:18:41He belongs in the Legion.
00:18:43And Lord Garret pries him above all others.
00:18:45You ignorant fool.
00:18:47My beloved is Lord Garret's own confidant.
00:18:49Do you understand what that means?
00:18:52It means I can do whatever I want here.
00:18:57They hold no respect for the law.
00:18:58They treat the Legion's code like nothing.
00:19:01What do we do?
00:19:02We can't fight them.
00:19:04No.
00:19:05You can't!
00:19:07You are a Legion soldier.
00:19:08You were sworn to protect the people.
00:19:10Look at what you're doing.
00:19:11Protect them?
00:19:12Should we carry lowbron filth on our backs?
00:19:14What use are you?
00:19:15You bring nothing but shame to your parents.
00:19:17My Ethan is a fine man.
00:19:19Fine?
00:19:20A blacksmith's life is worth nothing.
00:19:22Ethan, beg us.
00:19:23Maybe Marcus can find you some work in the Legion.
00:19:25Beg you?
00:19:26You're not worth it.
00:19:28Don't get proud, Ethan.
00:19:30Kneel down and lick the mud off my boot.
00:19:32Do that, and I'll consider it.
00:19:34Oh, Marcus, how generous.
00:19:37Let me think.
00:19:38What work sits you?
00:19:39Scrubbing latrins?
00:19:42You've gone far enough!
00:19:44Kneel and you get a job!
00:19:45We're not lying!
00:19:46Kneel before you.
00:19:48Not a chance.
00:19:51What is this blacksmith going on about?
00:19:55My son is captain of the Legion Honor Guard
00:19:57and deputy commander of the ceremonial escort.
00:20:00I have a dozen soldiers under me.
00:20:03Every one of them an elite fighter.
00:20:05We're only holding back because you're family.
00:20:07Count yourselves lucky.
00:20:08Marcus has too much power.
00:20:10We can't fight him.
00:20:11I won't let Ethan get hurt.
00:20:13Today is a good day.
00:20:14No more fighting.
00:20:16I've made sweet cakes and stew.
00:20:20Let us sit and eat.
00:20:22This slob?
00:20:23My pigs eat better than this.
00:20:25Father, they're hiding the good stuff somewhere.
00:20:29Move!
00:20:29Love!
00:20:50Happy birthday, Ethan.
00:21:02This is our son's birthday gift
00:21:04Every year we prepare a birthday gift
00:21:06Birthday gift? How pitiful
00:21:07Give it back
00:21:08Worthless old woman
00:21:09Stop
00:21:10Gutter trash
00:21:13Get out!
00:21:14You are not welcome here
00:21:15How dare you speak to me that way
00:21:25Please don't crush it
00:21:26Please I beg you
00:21:31Kneel
00:21:33Pick up every piece
00:21:34Fix it
00:21:35Then kneel and beg my parents for forgiveness
00:21:38Refuse
00:21:39And I will make you pay back a hundred for
00:21:43Ethan
00:21:44Have you hammered your brain to scrap?
00:21:46This house
00:21:47Is no longer yours
00:21:49You're nothing but a pack of homeless strays
00:21:56What the hell? Why is it suddenly so cold?
00:22:02Quaking in your boots old man?
00:22:03Worried your son's about to die?
00:22:05I'll say this once more
00:22:07Kneel
00:22:08Apologize
00:22:09Now
00:22:10Before you regret this
00:22:11A threat
00:22:12You don't scare me
00:22:14Look at this
00:22:15Cost me a hundred gold coins
00:22:16This can summon a beast more powerful than any mage
00:22:19You don't stand a chance
00:22:21Count yourselves lucky to have this beast be the last thing you see
00:22:24A Karin Beast's summoning stone?
00:22:27Five copper bends at the Legion supply depot
00:22:30You paid a hundred gold for that trash?
00:22:32What a fool
00:22:32How dare you?
00:22:34Think you'll survive this?
00:22:35Legion Prohibition
00:22:36Article 42
00:22:37The unauthorized possession and summoning of aggressive beasts in civilian zurns is forbidden
00:22:41Violation results in permanent discharge and life imprisonment
00:22:44You quote the law at me?
00:22:47I am the law here
00:22:49You're all Lubon filth
00:22:51Every last one of you could die and the Legion wouldn't blink
00:23:11What do we do?
00:23:12No
00:23:12My Ethan is here
00:23:14I will not retreat
00:23:17Ethan, run!
00:23:22Don't be afraid, son
00:23:23Your mother and I will hold it back
00:23:26Just run
00:23:28I won't leave you
00:23:30Not when we just found each other
00:23:35Child
00:23:37To have you as the last thing I see is enough
00:23:42I just wish
00:23:44I had the chance to watch you grow
00:23:52Enough of this touching reunion
00:23:54No one leaves here alive
00:23:59Why weep over a blacksmith?
00:24:01He's worthless
00:24:02Ethan
00:24:04No matter who you've become
00:24:06You are still your father's pride
00:24:09Father
00:24:10Mother
00:24:13I promise you
00:24:14No one will harm you today
00:24:18Still boasting
00:24:21Take him down
00:24:23I know you're not
00:24:52I'm still sorry
00:24:56What's wrong with you?
00:24:57Attack!
00:25:11Where is it?
00:25:12Where did the beast go?
00:25:15Hey!
00:25:16You useless creature!
00:25:18Get out here!
00:25:18My hundred gold coins!
00:25:22Why does a nobody like him have magic?
00:25:26Impossible.
00:25:29Three hundred years and not one ice maid in the whole empire!
00:25:34How can such a long dead power appear in this wretch?
00:25:40I know what this is.
00:25:42Dark magic.
00:25:44Forbidden black magic!
00:25:45So that's where you've been all these years?
00:25:48Walking a cursed path?
00:25:50Ethan!
00:25:51You sold your soul for this filth?
00:25:54No.
00:25:55My son is not that kind of man!
00:25:58Stop making excuses.
00:25:59Your son is finished.
00:26:02Dark magic is punishable by death.
00:26:05My love.
00:26:07Come quickly.
00:26:08There's a heretic using black magic.
00:26:10Hurry.
00:26:10What?
00:26:11I'm on my way!
00:26:13Hear that?
00:26:15Sienna is coming.
00:26:17She's Lord Garret's own confidant.
00:26:19You can rot in the dungeon!
00:26:22You can rot in the dungeon!
00:26:35Who dares practice dark magic?
00:26:37The legion will not tolerate this.
00:26:42My love!
00:26:43You're here!
00:26:45This wretch killed my beast with magic!
00:26:48He tried to kill me!
00:26:50Someone laid a hand on my man in the Northern Territory.
00:26:54I'll make him pay.
00:26:56You're finished, Crossyanna.
00:26:58And you crossed the entire Northern Legion.
00:27:03What are you smiling at?
00:27:05You think you're walking out of here alive?
00:27:07You're the one who hurt my man?
00:27:09Lowborn filth.
00:27:11I'll make sure you beg to die!
00:27:23Careful, my love.
00:27:24He disguises the black magic as ice magic to deceive people.
00:27:27There has been no Ice Macer in this kingdom for 300 years.
00:27:31And you thought you could fake it?
00:27:33Fool.
00:27:33Your ignorance only shows how low you rank in the Legion.
00:27:36You've never had access to the top.
00:27:38How dare you!
00:27:39Lord Garrett himself says my word is law here.
00:27:43I have the power to execute filth like you!
00:27:47Is that what Lord Garrett teaches you to do?
00:27:49You lowborn animal!
00:27:51How dare you speak his name so freely!
00:27:54Is he so great?
00:27:55Then I'll have him come to me right now.
00:28:02Garrett!
00:28:03Come!
00:28:04Now!
00:28:17Assemble the full guard!
00:28:18Move!
00:28:19With me!
00:28:22Practicing dark magic is a capital offense.
00:28:25Arrest them all!
00:28:27Take them to the dungeon!
00:28:28They face execution!
00:28:30Father, mother, don't be afraid.
00:28:32I'll protect you.
00:28:34Once they're dead, that 50 gold settlement is all ours!
00:28:42I can't fight here.
00:28:44I won't destroy the house.
00:28:45This is the home my parents guarded their whole lives.
00:28:48I'll go with you.
00:28:49But my parents stay.
00:28:51No!
00:28:51If you go with them, you'll die!
00:28:53Don't worry.
00:28:54We're your mother and father.
00:28:56We'll protect you.
00:28:57Ha!
00:28:58Lost your nerve?
00:28:59Where's all that big talk now?
00:29:01Fine.
00:29:02Those two old wrecks won't last much longer anyway.
00:29:11Father, mother.
00:29:12Don't worry.
00:29:14I'll be back soon.
00:29:16Ethan!
00:29:17Ethan!
00:29:18Honor his feteal devotion, then.
00:29:20Trade your lives for his.
00:29:22Ha!
00:29:23Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
00:29:25Ethan!
00:29:27Ethan!
00:29:34Where is he?
00:29:36Tall, handsome, dressed in rough cloth and a leather apron.
00:29:38Where did he go?
00:29:39Your men took him.
00:29:41They said they were taking him to the wasteland for execution.
00:29:44Please save my son.
00:29:46Execution?
00:29:50Execution?
00:29:54Thomas, what do we do?
00:29:56Don't panic. Remember? Ethan was betrothed as a child.
00:30:01You mean Isabella's family? They were as poor as us back then, but they've grown rich. Frost Village wealthiest family.
00:30:07They cut ties with us years ago.
00:30:09They're our last hope. Perhaps they will save Ethan for old time's sake.
00:30:27I chose quite the place to die.
00:30:30Any last words?
00:30:38Ethan, kneel nicely and I might make it quick.
00:30:41And those 50 gold coins will be ours. Small comfort for what you did to my darling, but it'll do.
00:30:48My love, once we have that money, I'll buy you the most beautiful dresses. New shoes for my parents, too.
00:30:58I warned you. Cross the Legion and you pay a price you cannot afford.
00:31:03What right do you have to speak for the Legion?
00:31:08Ethan, still boasting with death at your door.
00:31:16No.
00:31:18Death is at yours.
00:31:30Is it? You're falling for your own bluff.
00:31:35This fool actually thinks he's the commander.
00:31:38The commander? Have you ever even seen the commander?
00:31:41Only someone of Lord Garrett's rank would even qualify.
00:31:44Your rank is too low.
00:31:45You're not worthy.
00:31:48You vile creature!
00:31:51Scared now?
00:31:53Beg me and maybe I'll let you off.
00:31:55Is this all you can muster?
00:31:56You truly think this is enough?
00:31:58Gutter trash.
00:32:00There you go again with the big talk. Make him hurt.
00:32:06These soldiers are Legion elite.
00:32:10Any one of them could crush an ant like you.
00:32:15Rise.
00:32:21See that? Scared. Too late.
00:32:25Is that all you've got?
00:32:27Against you? More than enough!
00:32:29This level?
00:32:30This level?
00:32:31I could put it out with a flick of my fingers.
00:32:33You arrogant wretch! I'll grind you to ash! Combine!
00:32:38You're doomed.
00:32:39You're doomed!
00:32:46How is this possible?
00:32:48How is this possible?
00:32:51This... This can't be!
00:32:53I can't move!
00:32:54Let go!
00:32:56Help!
00:32:58Stand down!
00:33:00All of you, stand down!
00:33:05Commander!
00:33:07Commander!
00:33:08Thank goodness you're here!
00:33:10Kill this madman!
00:33:12What is going on here?
00:33:14Commander!
00:33:15This lowborn wretch used dark magic and killed all my soldiers!
00:33:19Now he wants to kill me!
00:33:22Striking Sienna is the same as striking you, sir!
00:33:25This is a declaration of war!
00:33:27Lord Garrett is here.
00:33:29You're doomed.
00:33:34You're dead.
00:33:43Sir, have you struck the wrong person?
00:33:45That one's over there!
00:33:47Silence!
00:33:49And you!
00:33:55You lawless animals!
00:33:58He's just a penniless blacksmith, Commander!
00:34:01C'mon!
00:34:08Commander, your subordinate Garrett failed to discipline his men.
00:34:12They offended the commander.
00:34:14I await your punishment.
00:34:16We await your punishment, Commander!
00:34:18Commander!
00:34:23Sir, look at how he's dressed!
00:34:24How could he possibly be the commander?
00:34:27Commander Marcusis, I can bear witness.
00:34:29He's just the son of a poor relative of mine.
00:34:31They just found him today.
00:34:33It's true.
00:34:34Sir, you must be mistaken.
00:34:36Just look.
00:34:36How could a penniless blacksmith be the commander?
00:34:45Open your eyes!
00:34:46This is the youngest commander in the Empire's history!
00:34:50The new...
00:34:51New commander?
00:34:52This can't be!
00:34:57Effective immediately, you are stripped of all military rank
00:35:01You are demoted to the lowest common class
00:35:05No! Commander Garrett, I was wrong!
00:35:13He's the commander
00:35:14Does that mean Thomas' family is about to strike it rich?
00:35:18Commander, it was all Marcus who deceived me
00:35:21Tonight, anything you want
00:35:23If you let me go, tonight
00:35:25No, every night from now on, I'm yours
00:35:27You can do anything you'd like to me
00:35:30You terrible woman!
00:35:31What do you think you're doing?
00:35:33This is your fault!
00:35:34If you weren't such a useless rest, I'd never have crossed the commander
00:35:38Take them away
00:35:50Commander
00:35:50Commander, Victor and Marcus' family are in custody
00:35:53Also, a contact reports your parents just left home
00:35:56And went to the estate of Isabella, Frost Village's wealthiest family
00:36:00So I have a betrothed, do I?
00:36:02Yes, Commander, arranged when you were young
00:36:05Make it happen
00:36:06I have a more important task for you
00:36:10Announce throughout the Northern Territory that three days from now
00:36:12I will hold a grand ceremony in the city
00:36:14I will declare the identity of my birth parents publicly
00:36:17No one will dare trouble them again
00:36:20Understood
00:36:20I'll see to it at once
00:36:33Move along
00:36:34This is not a place for beggars
00:36:38My Lord
00:36:39My son holds a betrothal contract with Miss Isabella
00:36:44The poorest person Miss Isabella's ever seen is her own stable hand
00:36:49You two rolling in the mud, dare speak of a betrothal?
00:36:53This is all our savings
00:36:55Please, I beg you
00:37:04Fine, wait there
00:37:11My Lord, any news yet?
00:37:16Why are you still here?
00:37:18Move on or I'll have you arrested
00:37:19You took our money
00:37:21That was everything we had
00:37:24How could you deceive us like this?
00:37:27Savings?
00:37:28How much could beggars like you even have?
00:37:34Miss Isabella
00:37:38Something stinks
00:37:39Did someone leave rubbish out here?
00:37:43It's me
00:37:44I'm Ethan's mother
00:37:49So you're the two spreading rumours that I'm your son's betrothed?
00:37:58How could you hit her?
00:38:01Exactly what vermin like you deserve
00:38:04You saw our family prosper and came crawling
00:38:10That's not why we're here
00:38:15So this is Frost Village wealthiest estate
00:38:18Rather modest, honestly
00:38:21Still denying it?
00:38:23Filth like you, I've seen plenty
00:38:25You want money?
00:38:26Just admit it
00:38:37We don't want money
00:38:39Do you remember the betrothal with our son?
00:38:43You two shameless wretcheds dare bring that up?
00:38:47You've been spreading that lie all over the village
00:38:49No, we haven't
00:38:51My son
00:38:55Your son
00:38:57Two old chromes who wallow in the mud
00:38:59Your son must be worthless to leave you destitute
00:39:04Know your place and get out
00:39:08No, no, we don't want anything
00:39:12Still here?
00:39:13Gone!
00:39:31And who are you?
00:39:33Child, you're really back
00:39:35They didn't hurt you, they didn't hurt you, did they?
00:39:36I'm fine father, mother
00:39:38They didn't dare
00:39:39Your home
00:39:40That's all that matters
00:39:42Oh, and who might this is
00:39:44Another pewter by the look of it
00:39:46You dare stand at the gate of my estate
00:39:48That is enough, Isabella
00:39:49That is enough, Isabella
00:39:51Don't think being a woman will protect you from me
00:39:53What are you playing at?
00:39:55Vermin from the gutter shouldn't stoil the air with their words
00:39:58Isabella, watch what you say
00:40:04Apologize
00:40:05Now
00:40:07Apologize?
00:40:08To you?
00:40:09Ethan, you cannot bear the consequences of my apology
00:40:12In this town, one word from me and you disappear
00:40:14Isabella, wonderful news
00:40:16The most wonderful news
00:40:18The legion just issued an order
00:40:1930 ships of premium spices and exclusive Mediterranean salt trading rights
00:40:23All sent to your family
00:40:24You're about to be the richest family in the region
00:40:26Oh, really, heavens
00:40:28Is it true?
00:40:30Absolutely
00:40:31My father is the Northern Territory governor, after all
00:40:34So that's why these two old retchels turned up today
00:40:37They heard word our family was about to strike it rich
00:40:41Is that so?
00:40:43Parasites sniffing out the scent
00:40:45They dare set their sights on some of the legion favours
00:40:48I'll discipline these bastards the legion way
00:40:57Lay a hand on me and your father will lose his post
00:41:02A blacksmith, all muscle and no sense
00:41:05His lowborn peasant is far too brazen
00:41:07His father is the Northern Territory governor
00:41:09I'm telling my father, you're finished
00:41:12No, it was all my fault
00:41:15Mother, it's all right
00:41:17Call him
00:41:18Let's see what he does
00:41:21Oh, a filthy commoner wants to see my father
00:41:23Someone of my father's stature
00:41:25And you think you can just summon him?
00:41:27A filthy cockroach who doesn't know his place
00:41:32You two are the parasites
00:41:33Living off your father's names
00:41:35So what?
00:41:37Even without magic, I'm a senior legion commander
00:41:39Can you say the same?
00:41:41Only those with magical talent may serve in the legion
00:41:44That is the law
00:41:45You had quite some nerve
00:41:50The law?
00:41:51My father is the law in the Northern Territory
00:41:54A governor this arrogant
00:41:59My father is more than a governor
00:42:01Do you have any idea how much the new commander values Lord Garret?
00:42:05Values him?
00:42:06News to me
00:42:07The new commander arrives in the Northern Territory in three days
00:42:10That alone is the highest honor for my father
00:42:12Enough
00:42:13Stop wasting words on this cockroach
00:42:17You said really true
00:42:18My father's word is never wrong
00:42:20Three days from now
00:42:21The new commander holds a public ceremony in the Central Square
00:42:23I need to get a new gown ready at once
00:42:27Three days from now
00:42:30I'll have a gift for you too
00:42:32One you'll never forget
00:42:50Garrett has planted men in the honor guard
00:42:52They may make a move at tomorrow's ceremony
00:42:54He can't beat me
00:42:55Everything proceeds as planned
00:42:57Understood
00:43:00Sam
00:43:00I need to ask a favor
00:43:02As brothers
00:43:04Name it
00:43:07Take my parents far from the Northern Territory
00:43:10As far as possible
00:43:11I don't want them caught in the middle
00:43:14Done
00:43:14Thank you, Sam
00:43:17You know, I've never thought of you as a subordinate
00:43:21You are the brother I trust most
00:43:25I'll head out now
00:43:37Coming here was too dangerous
00:43:39Don't worry
00:43:40He'll never expect his sworn brother to be the one plotting his downfall
00:43:45You have his trust
00:43:48Trust
00:43:50To him, I'm nothing but a convenient tool
00:43:52Good
00:43:54Hold on to that hatred
00:44:00Tomorrow, Ethan loses the thing he's most proud of
00:44:13Once I win the commander's favor
00:44:15A dukety is practically mine
00:44:20Once I've captivated the commander
00:44:22I'll have a man with magic
00:44:24Unlike this useless dead weight
00:44:26The commander is here
00:44:44Ethan, why didn't you tell me you were the commander?
00:44:48That makes me the commander's wife
00:44:50We do have a betrothal after all
00:44:53Isabella!
00:44:54What are you doing, you shameless horrid?
00:44:57Get back here!
00:44:59You have no shame
00:45:01Yesterday you humiliated me and my parents
00:45:03Called us worthless filth
00:45:05Now you want to be my betrothed?
00:45:06It was all my fault
00:45:09I didn't know you were the commander
00:45:12Ethan, please give me a chance to make it right
00:45:15Take her away
00:45:16And revolt the Thorn family's salt trading rights in the Mediterranean
00:45:20No!
00:45:21My family is already in debt
00:45:23Without that contract, we'll be ruined!
00:45:27This man holds no magical talent
00:45:28Yet infiltrated the Legion and took a post
00:45:32Take him to prison immediately
00:45:34Commander!
00:45:36Fitz is still young
00:45:37Allow me to take him home and discipline him myself
00:45:40You would defy a direct order
00:45:42I advise you to think carefully
00:45:44This is the Northern Territory, I call the shots
00:45:47Move against my son and you'll see how ruthless I can be
00:45:55What are you going to do?
00:45:56I have men positioned in all four directions
00:45:59One signal from me and they will destroy the barrier
00:46:03When the beasts flood the city
00:46:06Every man, woman and child will die
00:46:12You're insane!
00:46:29You...
00:46:34Let me go!
00:46:36Where are my parents?
00:46:38What have you done with them?
00:46:40What have you done with them?
00:46:46Give up
00:46:49That is a mage binding chain
00:46:50That doesn't just restrain your power
00:46:52In one hour, it will drain your magic entirely
00:46:55And leave you a broken man
00:46:59Sam
00:46:59I always thought of you as the brother
00:47:02I trust with my life
00:47:04Why?
00:47:05You hypocrite!
00:47:07Even now you lie!
00:47:09If it weren't for you
00:47:11If only you didn't exist
00:47:14The commander's seat would have been mine!
00:47:18You have no idea what I gave to become commander
00:47:21I trained every hour of every day
00:47:23I pushed through every injury
00:47:25I could suffer anything if it meant I could become commander
00:47:28And then there was you
00:47:30You beat me without trying
00:47:32You took everything I ever wanted
00:47:34You made me this shameful loser
00:47:37Sam, you haven't lost
00:47:39You've let obsession blind you
00:47:41I have always seen your effort
00:47:43Your worth
00:47:44In my eyes
00:47:46You are already one of the greatest mages in the kingdom
00:47:49You knew
00:47:51Release the chain
00:47:53Let us speak plainly
00:47:57He's manipulating you!
00:47:59Do you want to be a deputy for the rest of your life?
00:48:01Exactly!
00:48:02Exactly!
00:48:04Don't listen to him, Sam
00:48:06Stop struggling
00:48:07Every soul in this city is about to die because of you
00:48:10You'll be thrown from the commander's seat
00:48:13And cursed for a thousand years
00:48:26My son!
00:48:27It's useless
00:48:27Only the owner can open the mage binding chain
00:48:30I know
00:48:30You spent three months developing it
00:48:33You've always been brilliant
00:48:34That means nothing right now!
00:48:42Enough!
00:48:43Don't waste our time!
00:48:44No!
00:48:45What are you doing?
00:48:46You promised you wouldn't kill Ethan
00:48:48So that was their arrangement
00:48:52Sam, do you know why Ethan always outranked you?
00:48:56Because you are too soft
00:48:57Poor little deputy
00:48:59Think carefully
00:49:01If Ethan were gone
00:49:02Who would be left to contest the commander's seat?
00:49:04Exactly!
00:49:05Ethan is the only one who needs to die
00:49:07Don't believe them!
00:49:09They're using you!
00:49:10I think you're a smart man
00:49:14You know what to do
00:49:23Sam
00:49:24You deserve victory
00:49:26Do you really want to claim it through dirty tricks?
00:49:29Useless!
00:49:43Mother!
00:49:45Mother!
00:49:46Out of my way!
00:49:47No
00:49:47A mother will never hide
00:49:49Mother
00:49:51Ethan, I am so proud of you
00:49:53You've become such a wonderful man
00:49:56You've already done so much for us
00:49:58Now let us protect you
00:50:00Get out of the way, you old fools!
00:50:02Two powerless wrenches
00:50:04I'll send you all off together
00:50:05Mother!
00:50:07Mother, get back!
00:50:09No
00:50:10A mother should always protect her son
00:50:13It was my fault
00:50:14All those years ago
00:50:16You suffered so much
00:50:18Don't blame Mother
00:50:19I failed you
00:50:21I couldn't even buy you the sweet cake you loved
00:50:24I, Garrett, am of noble birth
00:50:26I do not strike those without magic
00:50:29If you insist on standing in my way
00:50:31Take three strikes
00:50:32Survive them
00:50:33And I'll let him go
00:50:35His health has never been good
00:50:37He's been ill for years
00:50:38But

00:52:16least of all a frail old woman like you you what are you doing you would
00:52:26betray my father I Garrett held back on the first strike but the second
00:52:48I showed mercy once because you are old that mercy is gone

00:53:42I'm sorry I won't be able to walk beside you any longer
00:53:46I only hope you will be happy
00:53:55I give you no more chances

00:54:40safe she's no longer in danger but we need to get her to a healer
00:54:44then let's go now
00:54:49I think you can just walk away
00:54:58the barrier you said you wouldn't touch the barrier
00:55:02Sam you are far too naive did you really think your mage binding chain was enough
00:55:08of course I had a backup plan
00:55:10it's your own fault you're useless
00:55:11you
00:55:13you
00:55:16you
00:55:16you
00:55:16Oh, my God.
00:55:42Grand Commander, Ethan!
00:55:44The magical barrier needs your magical energy!
00:55:48Father, Mother, wait just a little longer.
00:55:49Once the barrier's restored, I'll come straight back.
00:55:51Go, child. We'll be here.
00:55:54Begin restoring the barrier. Now.
00:56:04Commander!
00:56:06Please channel your energy!
00:56:18Father, are we just going to wait while they repair it?
00:56:21Ethan, you will not win.
00:56:23You insist on stripping me of my governorship.
00:56:26I'll burn the Northern Territory to the ground before I give it up.
00:56:29Release me! Now!
00:56:32Commander, we cannot lift our hands from the ground until the barrier's restored.
00:56:37Not one thread of magical energy can escape.
00:56:39If it does, everything is lost.
00:56:45We are safe.
00:56:47The repair circle protects those channeling it.
00:56:50Is that so?
00:56:52And what about those two?
00:56:57Let's see how lucky you are this time.
00:57:08Commander!
00:57:09Don't let go!
00:57:11Without the barrier, the entire Northern Territory will...
00:57:16So what?
00:57:17Peasants and commoners.
00:57:19Worthless.
00:57:21If they die, they die.
00:57:24Exactly.
00:57:25We are nobility.
00:57:27Superior by birth.
00:57:30Commander!
00:57:31Three hundred thousand commoners live here.
00:57:34The loved ones of soldiers.
00:57:35The Legion.
00:57:37Who doesn't have loved ones?
00:57:39Think of the sacrifice your parents made to protect you.
00:57:42Can you really bear to let them die?
00:57:56It's all right, Ethan.
00:57:57We'd never blame you.
00:57:59This is the right choice.
00:58:02We're proud of you.
00:58:04Silence, old man!
00:58:07My poison dagger.
00:58:09This venom makes a man feel every cut before he dies.
00:58:13Ethan, remember.
00:58:14Remember, all of this is your fault.
00:58:34Are you insane?
00:58:36You dare betray me?
00:58:37You broke your oath first.
00:58:39You swore you wouldn't hurt anyone.
00:58:40He never truly meant to harm me.
00:58:43Sam was only led astray.
00:58:45Sam, you brought this on yourself, every bit of it.
00:58:48Sam!
00:58:49You did the right thing!
00:58:50Yes.
00:58:51I made the right choice.
00:58:53You believe his lies?
00:58:55Fool!
00:58:56Every man who reaches the top has blood on his hands.
00:58:59That's why you'll never be Ethan's equal!
00:59:02Useless!
00:59:08You are the brother I trust.
00:59:14You'll always be worthless.
00:59:39Father!
00:59:41You are the brother I trust.
00:59:43fits. Take them to prison at once. Have them confess every crime, one by one. You know what
00:59:51to do with those who refuse. Ethan, listen to me! My family has money! I'll give you
00:59:56whatever you want! Take it all! This was all my father's doing! None of it was me!
01:00:08Get them to the healer! Now!
01:00:13You.
01:00:19Commander!
01:00:31Commander, thank you for saving the Northern Territory.
01:00:35It was my duty.
01:00:38No. You made a great sacrifice. We are grateful.
01:00:42Commander, my parents live by the city wall. If the beasts had broken through, they would
01:00:47have been the first to die.
01:00:49You saved our families. We owe you our lives.
01:00:54Yes. We are all wall guards. Without you, every one of my brothers would have died.
01:00:59Rise. On behalf of the Legion, I thank you for your service, day after day.
01:01:24Ethan!
01:01:26Mother!
01:01:29What happened? Where am I?
01:01:32You lost too much blood and fainted. The commander healed you with magic. You're safe now.
01:01:37He has some old ailments. He needs to take medicine, but he will be fine as well.
01:01:42Ethan.
01:01:43Ethan.
01:01:44The king wishes to see all of you.
01:01:50The king wishes to see all of you.
01:01:51Thomas.
01:01:52You have shown courage and kindness.
01:01:54You were willing to sacrifice yourselves to protect the people of the Northern Territory.
01:01:58The kingdom of Floria is moon honored to have subjects such as you.
01:02:01Therefore, I hereby forstro upon Thomas the title of Earl, and upon Lucy the title of Countess.
01:02:08Thank you, Your Majesty.
01:02:12Legion Deputy Commander Sam.
01:02:20Sam, you betrayed the Legion, injured your commander, and dealt a blow to the Legion's honor.
01:02:25However, on account of your remorse and service in rescuing the Earl and Countess,
01:02:30the Tribunal has weighed your crimes and judged them cleared.
01:02:33Effective today, you are relieved of all duties.
01:02:38Thank you, Your Majesty.
01:02:42Ethan.
01:02:46I am here.
01:02:49You were fearless in the face of death, and you saved the people of the Northern Territory.
01:02:54You are worthy to be Grand Commander.
01:02:59It was only my duty.
01:03:03I hereby declare, my most precious daughter, Princess Rowena, shall be given in marriage to you.
01:03:09It is my honor to wed the princess.
01:03:11I hereby swear, so long as my banner flies over the Northern Territory, no war shall ever reach the hem
01:03:17of Your Highness's gown.
01:03:18One final matter.
01:03:19I declare that Ethan is, from this day forward, Crown Prince of the Kingdom.
01:03:32This is as far as you go.
01:03:34Your parents are waiting for you.
01:03:35Are you truly leaving?
01:03:37Stay and think it over.
01:03:39The Legion needs you.
01:03:42Not after what I've done.
01:03:44We fought side by side and I nearly destroyed their families.
01:03:49They wouldn't want to see me.
01:03:51But in the end you still-
01:03:52Ethan, I'm going out to find myself.
01:03:55Train, maybe one day I'll come back stronger than you.
01:03:58Very well.
01:04:00I'll be here waiting for your challenge.
01:04:02Perhaps I will be the one to claim victory.
01:04:05I won't hold back.
01:04:07I'll be waiting.
01:04:21Ethan?
01:04:22Father.
01:04:23Mother.
01:04:24Are you alright?
01:04:25I was worried about you.
01:04:26I'm fine.
01:04:26I'm just happy.
01:04:28From now on we will never be separated again.
01:04:30Yes.
01:04:30Our family will always be together.
01:04:32Always.
