Short filmTranscript
00:00Twin sisters had to wed on the same full moon.
00:03Otherwise, a curse would descend upon the entire family.
00:07Dragging my frost-poisoned, sickly bones, I waited three years for Alistair.
00:15Finally, his wedding procession arrived.
00:20Send Evangeline off first.
00:23She is delicate.
00:24The night wind makes her cough.
00:26Serafina has endured for years.
00:28She can at least survive tonight at Broken Wolf Heap.
00:31But Lady Serafina caught frost-poison saving you.
00:34She waited three years for you.
00:36What if the king discovers the carriage swap?
00:38I bribe the royal attendants.
00:40The marriage contract names are already changed.
00:42The king won't kill me for a woman.
00:44I control one-third of the border army.
00:47He must consider my power before acting.
00:51Kyrian is a brutal cripple, but I have spies.
00:53They will deliver her medicine regularly.
00:56Serafina won't die.
00:58But for Evangeline, it would be a death sentence.
01:02Serafina must bear this burden for now.
01:04A metallic sweetness surge up my throat.
01:06I coughed black blood onto my white satin wedding gown.
01:10He decided my fate without asking for my consent.
01:13Everyone expected me to wreck the procession after discovering the switch.
01:16Instead, I let them lead me into the carriage.
01:19I became the tyrant, crippled king's new wife.
01:23The dried black blood felt stiff against the satin.
01:28My lady, are we really going to Broken Wolf?
01:32Yes.
01:33But they say Kieran Ashthrock.
01:34He killed twelve servants the night he lost his arm.
01:37And Kieran displayed their bones as ornaments by his throne.
01:40The previous queen vanished less than six months after marrying.
01:43They never even found her remains.
01:45Rumor has it his cellar has chains for disobedient brides.
01:49I know.
01:52This is the fate Alistair gave me.
01:55I will go.
01:57Serafina, stop throwing a tantrum.
01:59He rode on horseback, his voice coming through clearly despite the carriage curtains.
02:03Alistair leaned close, his soft voice dripping with his usual self-righteous certaincy.
02:07As if the ones sent to Broken Wolf weren't his three-year fiancée.
02:11Evangeline wouldn't last a day there.
02:16I'll send medicine via spies when you go there.
02:20Once the stir dies down, I'll find a reason to fetch you.
02:27I know you've been wronged.
02:30But Evangeline is timid and cried earlier in the carriage.
02:34I gave your mother's moonstone to her to soothe her nerves.
02:38She is prone to the cold and needs it more than you do.
02:43You're always sensible.
02:45So you won't hold this against your sister, right?
02:49My mother had squeezed that relic into my hand while dying.
02:53Sera, this moon-blessed stone protects you.
02:57Never give it to anyone.
02:59I bit my lip until it bled, tasting iron.
03:03By the way, I've prepared frost-healing ointment.
03:05It will arrive at Broken Wolf to sustain your life.
03:08You...
03:09That medicine only prolongs a dying life.
03:14Glad you understand.
03:15Just grit your teeth and you'll pull through.
03:22Looking down at my bruised fingertips,
03:25I recalled his words as he held me.
03:29Sarah, you've suffered enough in this life.
03:36From now on, I'd protect what was yours with my life.
03:43Now I understood.
03:46It was never me he intended to protect.
03:57I hesitated for a moment, then gave him my hand.
04:01Gentle inner power surged into my palm,
04:04slightly dispersing my bone-deep chill.
04:06I could barely stand.
04:08My knees buckled, nearly making me fall.
04:11He wordlessly caught my elbow,
04:13steadying my frame.
04:14Porched torches crackled, illuminating his face.
04:17His other sleeve hung empty,
04:20snapping in the wind.
04:22This was Kieran Ashtern.
04:24The Broken Wolf King.
04:27He lost an arm in a coup.
04:30Supposedly, the killer was never caught.
04:32Since then, the kingdom mocked him.
04:34Even lowest-ranked wolves gossiped.
04:44Wipe the blood from your mouth.
04:50Are you hungry?
04:54There is hot soup in the kitchen.
04:56Come in.
04:57On the third day, someone arrived.
05:00Alistair's personal valet, Pip,
05:03held a laquited wooden box.
05:05My lady...
05:05No, your majesty.
05:06My lord had me deliver this frost-healing ointment.
05:09He said a famous doctor sought across half the kingdom made it.
05:12It was meant to let you...
05:13Leave it there.
05:15My lord asks why you aren't wearing the circon he personally designed.
05:19He spent three months sketching patterns,
05:20then hired the capital's best craftsman.
05:22I closed my eyes, hiding the mockery in them.
05:25That circlet, encrusted with gauty rubies, was flamboyant and heavy.
05:28It wasn't my style at all.
05:30Evangeline casually remarked that such a lavish style suited me.
05:34He took her seriously and forced it on me.
05:36I pawned it.
05:39Pawned?
05:41For ten silver coins.
05:42I gave it to the driver as a tip.
05:47You didn't actually pawn it?
05:48No.
05:49And the circlet?
05:52Tossed under the bed, gathering dust.
05:56From now on, I want nothing of his, not a single thing.
06:01The dark grey cloak had frayed edges and a faint pine scent.
06:05It was very warm.
06:07Ten nights later, I startled awake from a dream.
06:09Instinctively, I reached under my pillow for my dagger.
06:12But I found that someone was already in the room.
06:16Alistair's hidden guard.
06:17Shadow.
06:18Shadow.
06:22What is it?
06:26My lord said Evangeline was startled last night.
06:29She's coughing constantly and couldn't sleep all night.
06:32Please remove your frost scale armor to give her warmth.
06:37Does he know what removing it means?
06:40My lord says the medicine will sustain your life.
06:43Just endure it.
06:44I sneered inwardly.
06:45Frost scale armor.
06:47Three years ago, I intercepted a poisoned arrow for Alistair.
06:50I forged that armor from scale beast hide, nearly dying in the icy abyss.
06:54The armor feuded with my flesh and merch rings over three years.
06:59Forcing it off meant being flayed and stripped to the bone.
07:02A living hell.
07:04My lord also says Evangeline is fragile.
07:07Only you can remove it.
07:08Please.
07:10Get out.
07:14Three years.
07:15I took arrows and hunted armor, sacrificing my health for him.
07:19It left me with incurable frost poison.
07:21Now, he wanted my fused armor as a stove for pampered Evangeline.
07:26I stepped behind the screen and undid my outer robes.
07:34I grabbed the edge of the armor, clenched my teeth, and ripped it from my flesh piece by piece.
07:41Blood instantly soaked my shirt.
07:44My teeth chumded from the blinding pain.
07:47But my mind filled with Alistair's gentleness.
07:50Sarah, wear this always.
07:52I'll never let you feel another ounce of pain.
08:03It finally detached.
08:07The armor crashed down, dripping with my blood.
08:11Suppressing convulsions, I bent down to grab the blood-stained armor.
08:18Take it.
08:20Tell Alistair this armor is my gift to Evangeline.
08:23The window stood wide open.
08:26Northern winds rushed in and made me shove her.
08:29My knees buckled.
08:31I collapsed to the floor as my consciousness blurred.
08:34The last image was a pair of black boots stopping before me.
08:38I was unconscious for three days.
08:40Awake, I lay in soft bedding atop layers of thick blankets.
08:44My wounds were carefully dressed, wrapped in clean bandages.
08:48Gentle inner energy suppressed the frost poison deep in my bones.
08:52Awake.
08:57Don't move.
08:59You too.
09:01It's nothing.
09:06Three years ago, I was in a distant shadow alley.
09:09I watched as you shielded him from that poisoned arrow.
09:12I saw you fight bloodly.
09:15Taking that fatal chill for him.
09:17I thought he would protect you forever.
09:27From now on, I will be the one to protect you.
09:29Kingdom tradition required newlywed royals to visit home three days after the full moon.
09:34Kieran, Kieran and I shared a carriage carriage wasn't grand, lacking crests and gold.
09:40Even the horses were just ordinary blacks, but the axles were sturdy and the ride was steady.
09:45Inside, the carriage stove burned brightly.
09:53The way to the king was in a
09:53Evangelion wore my wedding gown.
09:55That wedding gown took three months of sewing.
09:58Silver moonlight patterns graced the satin, embroidered needle by needle.
10:02Between frost poisoning bouts, I stitched them needle by needle through piercing pain.
10:07She also wore the frost-scale armor, which glowed faintly.
10:13Why aren't you wearing the ruby circle I gave you?
10:17The king dislikes flashy ornaments.
10:20Sarah, you-
10:21Queen of broken wolf, mind your tongue.
10:24Why is it this?
10:25The love token he gave me once rested there.
10:27A wolf tooth knot braided with red cord, each tooth hand polished.
10:31I wore it for three years, never removing it to bathe.
10:35You.
10:35Now a moonstone bracelet replaced it.
10:39A secret letter slipped from her sleeve, unfolding at the corner.
10:43Everyone's gaze fell upon that line of text.
10:46Evangeline, your secret letter dropped.
10:55My queen, the weather has turned.
10:57We should return to prepare for the funeral.
11:05That night, Alistair frantically searched the royal medical archives.
11:09He smashed the lock, fist-dents covered the oak door.
11:13Lighting three oil lamps, he rustled through dusty parchments page by page.
11:18At dawn, he finally found the page.
11:20It was a military healer's handwritten record from three years ago.
11:24Messy handwriting lay hidden beneath thick war reports, as if concealed.
11:29For three years, he believed Serafina was merely frail.
11:33He assumed those medicines were enough to sustain her.
11:36My lord, are you okay?
11:37Every time Serafina smiled, she was hanging on by a thread.
11:42Yet in three years, he never noticed once.
11:45My lord says this cinnamon almond cake was the queen's past favourite.
11:48So he specifically had the kitchen use premium honey and tenderest almonds.
11:51He personally-
11:52Take them back.
11:52The queen is allergic to it.
11:54Bleeding hives keep her itching all night if she tries it.
11:56Does your lord really not know?
11:58Where did she get it?
12:00My lord, their guard says she's allergic.
12:03Eating cinnamon almond cakes will cause bleeding hives.
12:05Don't send such harmful things again.
12:07Alistair suddenly remembered.
12:09Everline was the one who loved them.
12:11It tastes so good.
12:16Yes, just bug bites.
12:22I cannot wait any longer.
12:25The next day, citing border defense, he led a small troop to the main road.
12:31There, he intercepted the broken wolf carriage.
13:00I cannot wait any longer.
13:03I cannot wait any longer.
13:04Evangeline die. I watched his bulging veins, clenched fists, and shattered expression.
13:10His face showed anger, grievance, and a truth he feared. You cannot answer.
13:17I could?
13:18You did not.
13:22Alistair, you never did.
13:29I'll beg the king now! I'll cancel the engagement with Evangeline and take you back!
13:34Alistair, I am very satisfied as the Queen of Broken Wolf.
13:43Ciaran treats me wonderfully. Better than all your charity.
13:48Don't be foolish!
13:51Ciaran is a cripple! How can he save your life? He cannot even protect himself!
13:59Seraphina!
14:02Stop interrupting my carriage from now on.
14:05My husband will be displeased.
14:21You knew stripping that armor would kill her, didn't you?
14:27I... I did it for love! Alice, I love you so much!
14:34When did you know she would die?
14:37I...
14:38Tell me!
14:41Three years ago, I overheard the army healer outside the tent.
14:44The day she intercepted the arrow for you.
14:49You think I didn't know Frostgale armor?
14:51I asked you for it on purpose, because I knew she'd take it off.
14:55I knew she'd die if she took it off.
14:58I just wanted to see who you'd choose in the end.
15:02Strip that armor off her!
15:05Alice!
15:08Strip it!
15:21Get out!
15:24The rain came that day without warning.
15:27Waking from a nap, I heard Bromble say Alistair was outside.
15:30He drove his sword into the mud and knelt on one knee, and he stayed for nearly two hours,
15:36refusing to get up despite all persuasion.
15:38I leaned on the lounge chair with Bromble's help.
15:40Behind me stood Ciaran, bone comb in hand.
15:43Don't move.
15:44One lock remains.
15:46Serafina!
15:47I brought the armor back!
15:50I know everything Evangeline lied!
15:53And I lied to myself!
15:56Want to see him?
15:59No.
16:00I'll give you my life!
16:02Please just come out and give me one look!
16:06The rain is too loud, giving me a headache.
16:09Bromble, close the window.
16:15It's crooked.
16:17Where?
16:19The strand on the left.
16:25The rain poured harder.
16:27I rose from the lounge chair, and walked to the window.
16:32Through the crack, I saw Alistair kneeling on the gravel road.
16:36He clutched the frost grain armor to his chest with a death grip.
16:42Then he looked up, meeting my eyes.
16:45Sera, listen to me!
16:47Thinking I relented by opening the window, a flash of ecstasy crossed his face.
16:52Sera, I...
16:53Alistair, since the swap, a chasm divides us that you can never cross.
16:59We shall never meet again.
17:04What did you say?
17:06I said, we are done.
17:09No!
17:10It's not true!
17:11I can make it up to you!
17:13How?
17:14With what will you compensate?
17:16I reached out and shut the window again.
17:20This time, even the crack was sealed.
17:23I thought Alistair would leave.
17:25Instead, he knelt in the rain all night.
17:28At dawn, Bramble reported he remained, lips purple and face livid.
17:32Should we drive him away?
17:34He simply refused to go.
17:36Ignore him.
17:42At noon, he began battering the door.
17:45He slammed his body repeatedly like a maddened beast.
17:48Like a desperate man losing control.
17:52The iron gate thundered under the impact.
17:56Kieran's guards deployed.
18:00Twelve warriors lined up, blocking the entrance.
18:03The second was bitten on the shoulder, teeth sinking into flesh as blood ran down the corner of his mouth.
18:10Serafina!
18:11Serafina!
18:12I'll give you my life!
18:14Look at me!
18:15One look!
18:16Just one look!
18:20Only the rain answered him.
18:22Dawn broke.
18:23He was still gripping the frost scale armor she no longer wanted.
18:27He's alive.
18:27Return him to his manor.
18:29He is banned from ever stepping foot in the north.
18:31After that storm, Alistair fell gravely ill.
18:35Fever raged for seven days and nights.
18:37He remained deteriorous and unconscious.
18:43Alistair woke much thinner.
18:45He banished Evangeline from the clan and burned all her belongings.
18:49No!
18:54At the royal council, he began to fail repeatedly.
18:57First, he mistook 3,000 border troops for 30,000.
19:00Then he confused the three northern passes pointing east while discussing the west.
19:05The king questioned him.
19:06General Alistair, are you listening to me?
19:10Yes.
19:11I am listening.
19:12Then what did I just say?
19:15Alistair simply stood there with blank eyes.
19:18Your rank is stripped right now.
19:20You are a commoner, never to serve...
19:23Alistair accepted the decree on one knee, forehead against the cold floor tiles.
19:28He exposed his bare neck to everyone.
19:30It was the ultimate werewolf humiliation.
19:33Is this the once invincible werewolf general?
19:37He ruined himself over a woman.
19:40Kneeling there, Alistair recalled a secret report from border scouts three days ago.
19:44Kieran was secretly rallying old troops.
19:47The court was oblivious.
19:48Reporting this could turn the tables for him.
19:50But if he informed on Kieran, she would never look at him again.
19:54In the end, Alistair didn't say a single word.
19:56He accepted his punishment in silence.
19:59My health was slowly improving.
20:01Every three days, Kieran suppressed my frost poison with inner energy.
20:07That midnight, feeling restless, I passed his study while walking.
20:11I don't know what drew me there.
20:14Something felt...
20:16Off.
20:18A crystal was embledded in his severed arm's greasy scarf.
20:24It was no ordinary gem.
20:26It was the Moonshadow Crystal.
20:29Moonlight hit it, emitting a ghostly blue glow.
20:33Legend says only royal werewolf blood can activate this relic.
20:37It grants extraordinary power, even the power to resurrect the dead.
20:40But the cost, once fused with blood, it stays forever.
20:46Are you sure you want to do this?
20:48I am.
20:49You are the last of the royals.
20:52Dismissed.
21:02I didn't know what they were saying.
21:05But I sensed this was Kieran's long-buried secret.
21:08The next day, Kieran didn't channel energy into me.
21:13Instead, an old woman arrived.
21:15I am the Frost Whisperer.
21:18Lie down.
21:27Cold energy poured from her fingertips into my matricions.
21:32It collided fiercely with the relisional frost poison inside me.
21:41Far too late.
21:43The Frost Poison has penetrated your marrow, deeply rooted.
21:47To completely uproot it, there is only one way.
21:51What way?
21:52Split your Moonshadow Crystal in two.
22:03Okay.
22:08Are you sure?
22:11Once split, you will lose all martial prowess.
22:15You will become truly crippled.
22:19I know.
22:20Hearing her words, I froze completely in place.
22:24Suddenly, I understood what Kieran was discussing with the butler last night.
22:28Relying on the Moonshadow Crystal, he was never truly crippled.
22:32All these years.
22:34But now, to save me, he would hand over that power himself.
22:39He would become a completely helpless Invertil.
22:43This was Kylan's secret.
22:48You can't!
22:50It's fine.
22:52For you, everything is worth it.
22:55It's fine.
22:56Okay.
22:58I know.
