00:00:03Oh
00:00:04No, they're on us warriors. Do not let the orcs cross our borders turn back and fight
00:00:18Gods help me. I was a fool. I should have listened to Hera. I should never have led the campaign
00:00:24never set foot in the orc Empire
00:00:34Oh
00:00:35bugs
00:00:51Get the king out of here. I'll hold them off
00:01:10Gods are punishing me Hera. I'm sorry. I didn't heed your warning blinded by pride
00:01:18I sought a name that would outlive me and nearly cast the kingdom's border into ruin your majesty. Just save
00:01:24your strength
00:01:24You need to stay alive
00:01:27My time's over

00:01:35Then hear my final command guide him protect him
00:01:38Don't let Cade fall
00:01:40Moses
00:01:41Hera is no ordinary woman the gods chose her as long as she stands with Kay this kingdom will never
00:01:46fall listen to her
00:01:47You're bound together by your engagement rule this land side by side
00:01:52Father, I swear it I swear on all the gods. I'll trust her and listen to her
00:01:59I'll become the king this kingdom needs
00:02:02The gods power isn't endless but for Moses
00:02:06For Cade, I'll give everything I have
00:02:09Good
00:02:10Good
00:02:12Good
00:02:14Father
00:02:14Father
00:02:17Long live the king
00:02:22Rise
00:02:23Moses ascended the throne smoothly while Hera took charge of the royal court as regent under her rule the kingdom
00:02:29of Cade grew stronger with each passing day
00:02:31But endless days and sleepless nights reopened Hera's old wounds and slowly drained the gods power within her
00:02:40Your majesty urgent news from the border the orc empire has invaded. We're under attack
00:02:46Those beasts dare invade Cade?
00:02:49Who will drive them back for me?
00:02:52I'll lead the army drown the border in their blood and bring peace back to Cade
00:03:00Hera
00:03:01I've seen everything you've done this past year the people worship you
00:03:05When you return victorious, I'll honor our engagement
00:03:08I'll marry you with the grandest ceremony this kingdom has ever seen
00:03:12My king
00:03:14I won't fail you
00:03:19Poor humans
00:03:20You dare stand in the way of the old empire
00:03:24Today every last one of you die
00:03:26Roar
00:03:32The scepter of light
00:03:34The scepter of light
00:03:35You're carrying the relic
00:03:40So your godly power has limits after all
00:03:44Charge!
00:03:45Kill this bitch!
00:03:46Kill humanity's last godsworn!
00:03:49Crush the woman guarded court into utter despair
00:03:54Fall back!
00:04:05In the Gods name, Godfall Ashgrave!
00:04:13You witch rust woman, we'll return!
00:04:16And when we do, how will you alone stand against my million strong tide of beasts?
00:04:22No!
00:04:32Commander!
00:04:33Dear God! You're gravely wounded!
00:04:36I'll get a healer right now! Just hang on!
00:04:40I'm fine. At least the enemy's gone.
00:04:47Hera's a monster. She nearly crushed the Orc Empire by herself.
00:04:50Of course! Now the king must fulfill his promise and marry her.
00:04:54This wedding will go down in Cady's history!
00:05:05Your Majesty.
00:05:08Hera.
00:05:14Hera!
00:05:15Do you know your crime?
00:05:21Your Majesty. What guilt do I have?
00:05:27You failed in war.
00:05:28And you still dare question me?
00:05:31One border war dragged on for three whole years!
00:05:34You had the power of the gods, yet countless Cade-aid soldiers still died.
00:05:38Our people worked themselves to the bones supplying your war, food and weapons.
00:05:42You nearly bled this kingdom dry and you still claim you're innocent?
00:05:46Your Majesty. That was a million beast horde. Even a godsworn has limits.
00:05:50He's right! Without Hera holding the border, Cade would have fallen already!
00:05:54Nonsense. She's the godsworn. Someone with her power should have ended the war long ago.
00:05:59The only reason it dragged on is because she wanted it to.
00:06:02She used the enemy to weaken the kingdom and weaken the king's authority.
00:06:06What exactly were you plotting?
00:06:08Everything I did was for Cade. For the soldiers. For the people.
00:06:12I nearly gave my life for this victory.
00:06:14Enough! Shut your mouth!
00:06:15As of today, you are stripped of your position as regent.
00:06:18Irene will take your place.
00:06:19She understands strategy and politics far better than you to guide the kingdom.
00:06:23Irene has never led an army. She knows nothing about war or governance.
00:06:27Handing her this kingdom is digging Cade's grain with your own hands.
00:06:30How dare you? You dare defy the king?
00:06:34Kneel!
00:06:38Your Majesty, please reconsider her.
00:06:40Hera slid blood for this kingdom! You can't treat her like this!
00:06:44Treasonous fool! You dare oppose the king's command?
00:06:47Guards! Drag him out and execute him immediately!
00:06:50I promised King Taylor I would give Moses one hundred chances.
00:06:54Now there are only two left.
00:06:57When they're gone, so am I.
00:07:02As you command.
00:07:04Hera!
00:07:06I made this for you myself.
00:07:08It carries my heart with it.
00:07:10In this life, I'll only ever love you.
00:07:12As long as I can stay by your side, I'd give up everything.
00:07:16I'll follow you, protect you, love you forever.
00:07:19Without you, this crown means nothing to me.
00:07:22You're my only light, my only love.
00:07:24Let me place this on you.
00:07:27Yes, my king. I'd give everything for you too.
00:07:32This world only worships winners.
00:07:35Nobody pities foolish heroes who throw their lives away.
00:07:39You gambled everything on the battlefield, but the real war is fought on the throne.
00:07:44And you already lost.
00:07:46I burned through my divine power to protect this kingdom.
00:07:49My wounds reopen every night.
00:07:52I cough blood in silence.
00:07:54Yet he never noticed.
00:07:56Never cared.
00:07:58That coldness hurts more than any blade ever could.
00:08:08Commander, we fought through hell to save this kingdom.
00:08:11And this is how they repay you.
00:08:13Those snakes stole your power.
00:08:18Power is just dust.
00:08:21It never mattered to me.
00:08:22Commander, the kings betrayed everyone.
00:08:25You gave everything to Cayde.
00:08:27And this is what you got in return?
00:08:28To hell with that king!
00:08:29Commander, let's rebel!
00:08:32Lead us back into the palace and take back what's yours!
00:08:36Enough!
00:08:38Commander, we don't care about power or glory.
00:08:42We just want to protect Cayde.
00:08:44To protect the people under Under God's blessing.
00:08:46Commander, the king's blind!
00:08:49And the court's full of vipers!
00:08:50A kingdom like this has already been abandoned by the gods!
00:08:53That's enough.
00:08:54Get up.
00:08:55The late king raised me from nothing and entrusted this kingdom to me.
00:09:00Before he died, he placed Cayde and Moses in my hands.
00:09:04I swore on the gods that I would never betray this kingdom.
00:09:07Never rebel.
00:09:08Commander!
00:09:09But the king-
00:09:10Enough!
00:09:11Never speak of this again!
00:09:15Commander, the Queen Mother summons you.
00:09:17Immediately.
00:09:26Your Grace.
00:09:27Hera, the gods have seen every injustice done to you.
00:09:30You gave your life for Cayde, yet you end up here all because Moses is young and stupid.
00:09:35I've already reprimanded him, and he's praying for forgiveness.
00:09:38Please don't worry about me, your majesty.
00:09:40The king needed to establish authority after taking the throne.
00:09:44Everything I did was my duty.
00:09:46I hold no resentment.
00:09:48Moses is grown now, and the kingdom is stable.
00:09:51It's time to honor the engagement the late king arranged.
00:09:55Marriage should be the king's decision.
00:09:58I wouldn't dare decide for him.
00:09:59The late king swore this oath before the gods.
00:10:02It cannot be changed.
00:10:04If that is the will of the Queen Mother and the late king, then I will obey.
00:10:08Hera, you are the pillar of Cayde.
00:10:10This kingdom owes you.
00:10:11Only with you beside Moses can Cayde remain under the gods' protection.
00:10:18Commander, if this marriage makes you unhappy, I can speak to my brother.
00:10:21You don't have to force yourself.
00:10:23I've known the king almost my whole life.
00:10:25And this marriage was the late king's final wish.
00:10:40Commander!
00:10:42If you're angry, take it out on me!
00:10:45Even if I'm to die, I won't blame you!
00:10:52Hera!
00:10:53You dared to hit Irene!
00:10:55I swear by the gods.
00:10:56I never touched her, I would never hurt her.
00:10:59I saw it with my own eyes.
00:11:01And you still dare lie before the gods?
00:11:04Please calm down your majesty.
00:11:07Don't blame the commander.
00:11:08It's my fault for offended her.
00:11:10I deserve punishment.
00:11:11If my suffering eases her anger, then I'll gladly accept it!
00:11:16Hera!
00:11:17I order you to apologize to Irene right now!
00:11:20I did nothing wrong.
00:11:21Why should I apologize?
00:11:23Dare you disobey me!
00:11:24Guards, drag her away and punish her!
00:11:31Traitor!
00:11:44Hera!
00:11:45That was incredible!
00:11:46Teach me!
00:11:47Come here.
00:11:48I'll show you.
00:11:50Calm your mind.
00:11:51Keep your arms steady.
00:11:53Let your eyes follow the arrow.
00:11:55That's the path the gods guide you towards.
00:12:00Hera, you're the one the gods sent to guide me.
00:12:03When the war ends, I'll marry you before the entire kingdom.
00:12:07I'll stay by your side forever and make you the happiest woman in Cade.
00:12:17Brother, stop!
00:12:18She's the pillar of this kingdom!
00:12:20You can't treat her like this!
00:12:23Cain!
00:12:24You dare defy me too?
00:12:26You want punishment as well?
00:12:28Hera spent her whole life fighting for Cade.
00:12:30She drove back the orcs and protected this kingdom.
00:12:32She's blessed by the gods.
00:12:33How can you treat her this way?
00:12:35And I saw everything clearly.
00:12:37It was Reen.
00:12:37She hit herself to frame the commander.
00:12:41You've been blinded by the devil.
00:12:43Guards!
00:12:43Escort Prince Cain back to his chambers.
00:12:45He is confined till further notice.
00:12:52Hera, you've shown complete disrespect to the crown, the royal family and even the gods.
00:12:57Your crimes deserve death.
00:12:59From this day forward, all your titles are stripped.
00:13:01Your command over the armies is revoked.
00:13:04And the sacred crim given to you by the late king will be taken back immediately.
00:13:15As you command.
00:13:17One hundred chances.
00:13:19And now, the very last one is gone too.
00:13:28God's, take Irene to be treated.
00:13:33Moses!
00:13:35That crest was bestowed by the late king in the gods' name.
00:13:39It represents honor and faith.
00:13:42Taking it back is an insult to the gods themselves.
00:13:45Don't worry, mother.
00:13:47I know exactly what I'm doing.
00:13:49Your wedding is near, yet you humiliated her before everyone.
00:13:53You stripped her power and took her crest.
00:13:55How will you face her afterward?
00:13:57Right now, the people of Cade only know Hera.
00:14:01Not me.
00:14:02If I don't crush her influence before the wedding, this kingdom will belong to her instead of me.
00:14:09Then make them know you.
00:14:13It's fine, mother.
00:14:15She's like the rose with thorns.
00:14:17Only pulling every thorn out makes her truly submit.
00:14:20Only then can she become my loyal wife.
00:14:23Aren't you afraid driving Hera away will bring divine punishment?
00:14:27Don't worry.
00:14:27She's obeyed me for years.
00:14:29The gods bound us together.
00:14:30And besides, I don't want a legendary commander feared across the world.
00:14:34I just want a woman who belongs only to me.
00:14:37You always were a stubborn boy.
00:14:39Besides, after her last campaign, her body's already broken.
00:14:41Taking away her command is for her own good.
00:14:43She needs rest.
00:14:44You're grown now.
00:14:46Just remember, control your decisions anymore.
00:14:49Don't destroy what you and Hera once had.
00:14:52That bond was blessed by the gods.
00:15:01Your majesty, Hera requests an audience.
00:15:05Let her in.
00:15:13The gods have blessed you, your majesty.
00:15:16Your dedication for ruling lately reminds me of the late king.
00:15:20I'm glad to see it.
00:15:23Hera, you've spent years fighting for this kingdom.
00:15:26Your wounds are severe.
00:15:27Now that you've stepped down as commander,
00:15:29just focus on healing and prepare for our wedding.
00:15:32Before I leave the palace,
00:15:34this is the final document I need your approval on.
00:15:41Wonderful news, your majesty!
00:15:43The Orc Empire has sent envoys!
00:15:44They want peace talks!
00:15:46Guards!
00:15:47Quickly, get Irene treated!
00:15:49Approved.
00:15:50You may leave now.
00:15:51Hera.
00:15:52Hera.
00:15:52I know you've suffered lately.
00:15:54We'll talk everything through after the wedding, okay?
00:16:00Your majesty.
00:16:02There's no after this anymore.
00:16:05There's no after this anymore.
00:16:21Hera!
00:16:22Are you hurt?
00:16:24I'm fine.
00:16:26It's nothing.
00:16:28No, that's not nothing.
00:16:29To me.
00:16:31To me.
00:16:31You matter more than the throne,
00:16:32more than this kingdom,
00:16:33more than anything in this world.
00:16:39From this day on,
00:16:41we are neither ruler and subject,
00:16:44nor husband and wife.
00:16:50Hera.
00:16:52Hera.
00:16:52Come home safe.
00:16:53Hera.
00:16:53I'll marry you with the grandest ceremony in the kingdom.
00:16:58Hera.
00:17:00Do you plead guilty to your sin?
00:17:05Moses.
00:17:06Hera.
00:17:07Hera is no ordinary woman.
00:17:08The gods chose her.
00:17:10I swear on all the gods.
00:17:11I'll trust her and listen to her.
00:17:13I'll become the king this kingdom needs.
00:17:22This world is vast enough that we'll never see each other again.
00:17:32May the gods bless them.
00:17:34The king is finally marrying Commander Hera.
00:17:38What a glorious moment for Cade.
00:17:40I heard she lost her title, her army,
00:17:42even her sacred Christ.
00:17:44Why would they suddenly marry now?
00:17:46You don't understand.
00:17:48The king just wants her to put down her sword
00:17:50and live peacefully beside him.
00:17:51It's out of love.
00:17:52I see.
00:17:53Then we misunderstood his majesty.
00:18:03Your majesty.
00:18:05We've arrived at Hera's estate.
00:18:07What nerve.
00:18:09The king himself arrives.
00:18:11Dare you not come greet him?
00:18:12This is an insult to the crown.
00:18:15Don't blame her.
00:18:16She's been hurt lately.
00:18:18I'll speak to her myself.
00:18:21What's wrong?
00:18:22Where's Hera?
00:18:25Well...
00:18:25Go find her now!
00:18:28Go find her now!
00:18:37Stop!
00:18:44Your majesty.
00:18:47Tell me where Hera is.
00:18:48Answer honestly.
00:18:50Your majesty.
00:18:52Lady Hera left the capital the day she surrendered the sacred crest.
00:18:56I have no idea where she went either!
00:19:02What?!
00:19:02No.
00:19:03That's impossible.
00:19:04You're lying.
00:19:05Hera swore to my father she'd take me protect Cade.
00:19:07She swore before the gods.
00:19:08She would never leave me.
00:19:09Your majesty!
00:19:10I swear by the gods, but dare perceive you!
00:19:13Insolence!
00:19:13How dare you speak such nonsense before his majesty!
00:19:16Hera!
00:19:17Now that you're gone, your kingdom and your man are all mine!
00:19:22Your majesty!
00:19:23I swear by the gods!
00:19:24Lady Hera truly left the capital!
00:19:27Before she left, she ordered me to throw away all the old belongings in the estate!
00:19:31Hera!
00:19:32These night bracelets were offered by the lord of the eastern territories.
00:19:35I saved them especially for you.
00:19:37Wear them.
00:19:38Like I'm always by your side.
00:19:39Protecting you.
00:19:40I love them.
00:19:42I'll treasure them forever.
00:19:44Old belongings.
00:19:45Could she mean...
00:19:46All the things I gave her?
00:19:49Where are they?!
00:19:51Over there!
00:19:52Half of them have already burned!
00:20:00Those were my gifts to her.
00:20:02Hera!
00:20:11Hera, look.
00:20:12This is our vow parchment.
00:20:14It says,
00:20:15I'll love Hera forever and we'll never be apart.
00:20:17Yes.
00:20:18We'll be together forever, never apart.
00:20:26When you're away at war,
00:20:27if you miss me, look at this painting.
00:20:31Whenever I miss you,
00:20:33I'll keep looking at it.
00:20:36Guards!
00:20:37This man destroyed royal property!
00:20:39Execute him immediately!
00:20:40Guards!
00:20:41This man destroyed royal property!
00:20:43Execute him immediately!
00:20:44Mercy, your majesty!
00:20:46I swear by the gods!
00:20:48I didn't know those belonged to the royal family!
00:20:50Please spare me!
00:20:51You can't do this!
00:20:52He didn't know!
00:20:53Your majesty, you can't kill him!
00:20:55What?
00:20:56You're defending him now?
00:20:57Lady Hera just left.
00:20:58And you already want to execute her old servant.
00:21:01If she hears about this, what will she think of you?
00:21:03Right.
00:21:03She just left.
00:21:04She can't have gone far yet!
00:21:06I can still bring Hera back!
00:21:08Hera no longer holds any office.
00:21:10You have no right to force her back.
00:21:14She may not hold office anymore,
00:21:16but she is still my rightful fiancé.
00:21:19I have every right to bring her back.
00:21:21Hera abandoned the royal wedding
00:21:23and disgraced the crown before the entire kingdom.
00:21:25That's treason against the royal family
00:21:27and betrayal of the gods.
00:21:29A crime worthy of death.
00:21:31Exactly!
00:21:33Hera deserves to die for this!
00:21:36Brother,
00:21:37have you ever stopped to think
00:21:38why Hera left without a word?
00:21:40Have you reflected on anything you've done?
00:21:44Cain!
00:21:45Are you saying all of this is my fault?
00:21:47I would never dare.
00:21:49Enough! Get out!
00:21:50I don't want to see you right now!
00:21:55And you,
00:21:57do you think this is my fault too?
00:21:59Of course not!
00:22:00This is all Hera's doing.
00:22:02She's manipulated everyone around her.
00:22:05She bewitched Cain with that pretty face of hers.
00:22:08That's why he keeps defending her.
00:22:10I knew it!
00:22:12Cain must have feelings for Hera.
00:22:14But now...
00:22:16How do I fix this mess?
00:22:18I thought marrying her would stabilize the kingdom.
00:22:21But she escaped!
00:22:22Turning me into a joke of the whole kingdom!
00:22:25I have a solution, Your Majesty.
00:22:28Say it!
00:22:30The only way to calm the royal court and the people
00:22:33is to find someone to impersonate Hera
00:22:36until this crisis passes.
00:22:38Your height and figure are close enough to Hera's.
00:22:41You'll do.
00:22:44Your Majesty.
00:22:46I'm afraid I may not be worthy enough for such a role.
00:22:49That was not a request.
00:22:50It's an order.
00:22:52Do you dare refuse me?
00:22:55I...
00:22:55As you command.
00:23:01Hera, the kingdom you built, and the man you loved.
00:23:06From now on, they'll all belong to me.
00:23:08Hera, I am the king of Cade.
00:23:11The ruler of this world.
00:23:12No one's allowed to defy me.
00:23:24Hera, is that you?
00:23:25You finally came back to me.
00:23:27My Hera.
00:23:29I knew you were hurt before.
00:23:33But why wouldn't you just listen to me?
00:23:36I wanted to tell you everything.
00:23:38On our wedding night.
00:23:43Hera, I fell in love with you the very first moment I saw you.
00:23:47But I'm a king, I wasn't just myself.
00:23:50Couldn't you have understood me just a little more?
00:23:52But don't worry.
00:23:54I'll make it up to you from now on.
00:23:57Irene even taught me.
00:23:59How to please a woman.
00:24:00I'll make you happy.
00:24:02I'll make all your pain disappear.
00:24:06Why is it you?
00:24:08Irene, where's my Hera?
00:24:13Your Majesty!
00:24:15We located Hera.
00:24:16She's currently in the Essos Ridge region.
00:24:18Great!
00:24:18I'm leaving immediately.
00:24:20I'll bring Hera back myself.
00:24:22Hera, you bitch.
00:24:24I'll send the Shadow Eclipse assassins to kill you in Essos Ridge before Moses ever reaches you.
00:24:29Never steal Moses from me again.
00:24:38Your mind's somewhere else tonight?
00:24:41After everything you did for Cade.
00:24:42After all your victories.
00:24:44This is how the king repaid you.
00:24:46How can the world be this unfair?
00:24:48I spent my whole life fighting wars for the kingdom.
00:24:51Now that I finally have peace you should be happy for me.
00:24:55Maybe so.
00:24:57But it's still so unfair.
00:25:00It's heartbreaking.
00:25:05Look out!
00:25:11Such strong magic.
00:25:13They aren't ordinary assassins.
00:25:19Hera.
00:25:21Time to die.
00:25:24Time to die.
00:25:28Don't touch her!
00:25:39Gareth!
00:25:47No!
00:25:58Your power is impressive.
00:26:00But your old wounds never healed.
00:26:02You're finished.
00:26:05Tonight.
00:26:06I'm taking your life.
00:26:08Who sent you?
00:26:10Who else in Cade has this kind of power besides the king himself?
00:26:15Don't touch her!
00:26:16God.
00:26:20Cade.
00:26:21Cade, stay with me.
00:26:22You can't die.
00:26:40So it's true, Hera
00:26:41I knew there was something between you and Cain
00:26:44I came all this way to bring you back
00:26:47And this is what I find?
00:26:48Sneaking around with my own brother?
00:26:50Why be so silly?
00:26:52You're a prince
00:26:52Why would you throw yourself in front of that blade for me?
00:26:56It's not worth
00:26:57Lady Hera, you gave everything for Cade
00:26:59For its people
00:27:01It's my honor to save you
00:27:03I dreamed of marrying you
00:27:04Of ruling this kingdom together
00:27:06And all this time you were with my brother?
00:27:09Don't think I can't see the truth
00:27:12You ran from the wedding because you wanted to elope with Cain
00:27:18Brother, you've got it wrong
00:27:19I only followed because I was worried Hera might be in danger
00:27:23We weren't running away together
00:27:25You expect me to believe that?
00:27:28If your majesty has already decided what to believe
00:27:31Then there's nothing left to explain
00:27:33Since you have nothing to say
00:27:36Guards, execute Hera now!
00:27:44That's a royal command
00:27:45Are you all defying your king now?
00:27:48Your majesty, Hera fought and bled for this kingdom
00:27:51Earned countless honors
00:27:53You cannot execute her
00:27:55If none of you have the guts, I'll do
00:27:57Your majesty
00:27:59Hera sacrificed everything for this kingdom
00:28:02How can you be so cruel to her?
00:28:05Everything I've done in this life
00:28:07I can answer for before myself and before this land
00:28:10Answer for yourself?
00:28:12Then what about our engagement?
00:28:13You abandoned me on our wedding day
00:28:15And humiliated the royal family before the entire kingdom
00:28:17Did you ever think about me?
00:28:19Do you remember the document I handed you the last time I came to see you?
00:28:23You approved it yourself
00:28:25The document?
00:28:27The document?
00:28:32Your majesty, I need your approval
00:28:35The Orc Empire has sent envoys
00:28:37They want peace talks
00:28:40Approved
00:28:40You may leave now
00:28:42Someone
00:28:43Bring me that document
00:28:44Now
00:28:51No
00:28:52No, it's not true
00:28:53This has to be fake
00:28:57Read carefully
00:28:58It's real
00:29:00How?
00:29:01How did this happen?
00:29:03Why didn't I know about this?
00:29:04Who kept this from me?
00:29:05Who?
00:29:06It was you!
00:29:07Take him out and execute him
00:29:09Now!
00:29:09Your majesty, please!
00:29:10I swear I hid nothing
00:29:11You approved it without even a glance
00:29:13Hera
00:29:15I swear to the gods
00:29:16I didn't know it was a cancellation document
00:29:18Please believe me
00:29:19It's already done
00:29:21Our engagement was over
00:29:22There's nothing left between us now
00:29:24You promised my father
00:29:26You promised to protect Caden
00:29:28To protect my throne
00:29:29I did
00:29:31And I fulfilled the promise
00:29:32Then that means you can still
00:29:34I once swore before the gods
00:29:35That I would give you 100 chances
00:29:38You've used every last one
00:29:39100?
00:29:41How could they all be gone already?
00:29:43No!
00:29:44You're lying to me
00:29:45That was 100 chances
00:29:46There's no way they're gone already
00:29:48You are stripped of your position as regent
00:29:50Irene will take your place
00:29:52As you command
00:29:55Pity's foolish heroes
00:29:56Who throw their lives away
00:30:02From this day on
00:30:03We are neither ruler and subject
00:30:07Nor husband and wife
00:30:14Now the 100 chances are truly gone
00:30:18It's time to leave
00:30:21Everything in Kato belongs to me
00:30:24Including you
00:30:25I'd kill you rather than let you leave me
00:30:32Fine
00:30:33If you truly want my life
00:30:35Then take it
00:30:36Your majesty
00:30:37You can't kill her
00:30:41She'd rather be killed
00:30:42Than come back to me
00:30:43Your majesty
00:30:45You can't kill her
00:30:50Your highness
00:30:52You don't have to do this
00:30:54Your majesty
00:30:55Lady Hera has done too much for Cade
00:30:58If you kill her like this
00:30:59The kingdom will fall into chaos
00:31:00She chose this herself
00:31:02I didn't mean to
00:31:04I beg you your majesty
00:31:06Spare her life
00:31:07Why do you care about her so much
00:31:09This isn't personal
00:31:11But the people know right from wrong
00:31:13If you execute a national hero without cause
00:31:16Neither the nobles nor the people will accept it
00:31:19Good
00:31:19Everyone says Hera has the people behind her
00:31:22Power everywhere
00:31:24Loyal followers everywhere she goes
00:31:26Yeah
00:31:26That is terrifying
00:31:27Your majesty
00:31:27Please don't say that
00:31:29The late king changed my life
00:31:31He trusted me
00:31:32Believed in me
00:31:33I'll never forget that kindness
00:31:35So don't worry your majesty
00:31:36I will never rebel
00:31:38You won't
00:31:39But what about your men
00:31:40Gavin, Arryn, Thor
00:31:41Every one of them is a deadly commander
00:31:43Can you guarantee they won't turn against me?
00:31:54I'll let them lay down their titles and return home
00:31:56The royal family will face no threat from them
00:31:59You have my word
00:32:00I can let you leave
00:32:02But you must promise me
00:32:03Never serve another kingdom
00:32:05Marshal Hera is unbelievably talented
00:32:07What a waste to be chained down by
00:32:09Watch your tongue
00:32:09Dare question royal affairs in front of me
00:32:11Wanna die?
00:32:14And that's not enough
00:32:15Swear before the gods
00:32:16That you will never serve anyone else
00:32:18For the rest of your life
00:32:19Or you'll be punished with god's harshest judgment
00:32:22I accept
00:32:23I, Hera, swear before the gods
00:32:25For the rest of my life
00:32:26I will fight me for Cade
00:32:27And remain loyal only to Cade
00:32:29I will never serve another kingdom or power
00:32:31If I break this oath
00:32:32May the gods deliver their harshest punishment upon me
00:32:35Hera
00:32:36You'd rather abandon all your talent
00:32:38And disappear into the wilderness
00:32:39Than stay by my side?
00:32:41I already gave the first half of my life to Cade
00:32:43I fulfilled the late king's final wish
00:32:47Now it's time for me to leave
00:32:49I want to travel the world
00:32:51Live the rest of my life in peace
00:32:53And never involve myself in the kingdom again
00:32:55You good, Hera
00:32:56So you really think Cade will fall apart without you?
00:32:59That I can't rule this kingdom without you?
00:33:00You seriously overestimate yourself
00:33:02I never thought that
00:33:04That's exactly what you think
00:33:05Lucky for Cade
00:33:07There's never a shortage of warriors or brilliant minds
00:33:09With Irene leading the kingdom
00:33:12Cade will thrive just fine
00:33:13Better than ever, actually
00:33:15I won't disappoint your majesty's trust
00:33:21Moses still young
00:33:22I'm only trusting with him
00:33:24And the kingdom's future
00:33:27I'll give it everything I have
00:33:29The late king entrusted everything to me before he died
00:33:32No matter what, I have to do last thing for Cade
00:33:34Your majesty is wise
00:33:36Before I leave
00:33:38There are three things I beg you to remember
00:33:40Interesting
00:33:41So even you have something to beg me for now
00:33:44First
00:33:45Cade has suffered through years of war
00:33:47The people are exhausted
00:33:49Lower the taxes
00:33:50And don't burden them any further
00:33:53I already know that
00:33:54Second
00:33:54The northern cities were only recently subdued
00:33:57Morrill and his men are fierce and proud
00:33:59While I was here, I could keep them loyal
00:34:01Please treat them with mercy and respect
00:34:03If you push them too hard, they will rebel
00:34:05Which will bring disaster to the kingdom
00:34:15Lord Moriak! Unstoppable!
00:34:17One man against ten thousand!
00:34:22Don't worry
00:34:23Irene is the truly gifted one in Cade
00:34:25She's far more capable than you ever were
00:34:27Third
00:34:29Never trust the orc empire
00:34:31Gromash and his court are brutal by nature
00:34:33Never lower your guard around them
00:34:37Finished, that's all
00:34:38Nothing new to rule the kingdom
00:34:39Don't underestimate these three rules
00:34:42If you can truly follow them
00:34:44Cade will be in peace for a hundred years
00:34:47Hera, stop pretending to be so loyal
00:34:50You disgust me
00:34:51Every word I said came from my heart
00:34:54Listen carefully!
00:34:55This kingdom won't stop without you
00:34:56No, Cade will even become stronger than before
00:34:58That's good
00:34:59May Cade kingdom prosper
00:35:01And may my king be safe and well
00:35:03Then we shall see
00:35:06Guards!
00:35:07Escort Cade away and treat his injuries immediately
00:35:09Yes, your majesty
00:35:35Why are you here?
00:35:36The moment you left
00:35:38All three of us were stripped of military command
00:35:41We refused to continue serving that damned king
00:35:44We suffered endless humiliation in the royal court
00:35:48We would rather follow you
00:35:49Even if it means doing the roughest labor
00:35:51Lady Hera
00:35:52Please don't leave
00:35:54Cade cannot survive without you
00:35:56You gave everything for Cade
00:35:58We can't let you leave like this
00:36:00Everything is settled
00:36:01I have nothing left to stay for
00:36:03I only wish to lay down my burdens
00:36:05And live a few peaceful years
00:36:07During your years in power
00:36:08You did so much for us
00:36:11Now traitorous dimensions
00:36:12Drive away a loyal hero
00:36:14We refuse to accept it
00:36:17The royal court has wronged its greatest protector
00:36:21That's right!
00:36:22All gatherings must come to an end someday
00:36:25Everyone, please go home
00:36:27Don't make things harder for Hera
00:36:33May your road ahead be safe, my lady
00:36:37May the rest of your life be peaceful and stable
00:36:52You saw it with your own eyes
00:36:53The people of this land recognize only Hera in their hearts
00:36:56Not the royal family
00:36:58I will accomplish great deeds for the world to see
00:37:00I'll make Hera understand
00:37:02Who truly deserves to rule Cade
00:37:04Your majesty
00:37:05I have a brilliant plan that will secure your throne quickly
00:37:08And elevate your prestige far above Hera's
00:37:11Speak!
00:37:12What plan?
00:37:13Though Hera is gone
00:37:14Her influence within the court still remains
00:37:17Your majesty should dismiss every official connected to her
00:37:20And replace them all with people loyal only to you
00:37:23And you must win over the nobles and ministers
00:37:25By increasing their salaries and privileges
00:37:27Only when those in power benefit from your rule
00:37:30Will they truly devote themselves to you
00:37:31Only then will Cade truly belong to you
00:37:35But the royal treasury has long been emptied
00:37:38We simply don't have the money for increased rewards
00:37:42Then raise the taxes
00:37:45But before Hera left
00:37:46She repeatedly warned me never to raise taxes
00:37:49Keep the people to live peacefully
00:37:50You are mistaken
00:37:52To secure royal authority
00:37:54You must first secure the loyalty of those who hold power around you
00:37:57Only when officials profit from your rule
00:37:59Will they truly obey you
00:38:00Hera wasn't protecting the people by opposing higher taxes
00:38:03She was deliberately holding you back
00:38:06So you could never truly secure your throne
00:38:08You mustn't fall for her tricks
00:38:11What a scheming woman
00:38:12Even after leaving she's still plotting against me
00:38:17As you said
00:38:19Deliver my order at once
00:38:20Raise the taxes
00:38:23Your majesty
00:38:25As minister of agriculture
00:38:27I present three treasures
00:38:28Superior wheat seeds
00:38:30Fertile soil fertilizer
00:38:32And gilded farming sepuls
00:38:33May Cade enjoy endless harvests
00:38:36Overflowing granaries
00:38:37And freedom from famine forever
00:38:39Excellent
00:38:40Truly excellent
00:38:41Cade is fortunate to have such a devoted official as you
00:38:44I oversee the kingdom's military affairs
00:38:47And offer the black steel command seal
00:38:49The lionheart battle armor
00:38:50And the hundred war bone
00:38:52May Cade cavalry become invincible
00:38:55And all neighboring lands submit before us
00:38:57Well done
00:38:58That's Irene's brother
00:38:59You've forged Cade army into such a powerful force
00:39:03With you there
00:39:04Our borders will remain secure forever
00:39:06I present the star crystal stepter
00:39:09The deep sea pearl crown
00:39:11And the holy light blessing scroll
00:39:13May your majesty's glory shake the world
00:39:16Win the sincere loyalty of all people
00:39:18And secure your supreme royal authority forever
00:39:22Long live King Moses
00:39:25May Cade resign forever
00:39:28Ever since Irene began assisting me in governing the kingdom
00:39:31Cade has grown stronger every time
00:39:34The people live peacefully
00:39:36And the court stands united
00:39:38This is true prosperity
00:39:48The entire kingdom celebrates today
00:39:51And every minister offers congratulations
00:39:54Why are you sitting there in silence
00:39:56Without the slightest smile
00:40:02Congratulations your majesty
00:40:04Are you still unwilling to accept it
00:40:06Thinking that without Hera
00:40:08Cade could never maintain its essence glory
00:40:11I didn't think so
00:40:12Let's stop talking this
00:40:14Even if Hera possessed some ability
00:40:16How could she possibly compare to Irene's wisdom and strategy
00:40:19Your majesty
00:40:21Enough
00:40:22You still side with her in your heart
00:40:25I would truly like to see Hera's expression
00:40:28When she realizes Cade remains prosperous
00:40:30Even without her
00:40:31Prosperous?
00:40:32The taxes are crushing the people
00:40:33Until they can barely breathe
00:40:34Citizens are displaced
00:40:36Suffering miserably everywhere
00:40:37And you call this prosperous?
00:40:46The taxes are due
00:40:47How dare you lay payment?
00:40:49If you still refuse spare money to pay
00:40:51I'll whip you to death
00:40:52Sir
00:40:53This year's harvest
00:40:54Completely failed
00:40:55The taxes are far too heavy
00:40:57We truly can't afford to pay
00:40:59You have no choice
00:41:00This is the king's command
00:41:02Anyone who resists taxation
00:41:04Will be executed on the spot
00:41:06How dare you speak such nonsense here?
00:41:10Cade is peaceful and prosperous today entirely because of his majesty
00:41:13Raising taxes slightly is what made this grand banquet and this stability possible
00:41:18What is wrong with that?
00:41:20Before Hera left
00:41:21She repeatedly warned that taxes must never be raised
00:41:25The people needed time to recover
00:41:28You promised her that
00:41:30Shut up!
00:41:31Hera has no right to lecture me on how to govern my kingdom
00:41:34If you refuse to listen to honest counsel and remain this stubborn
00:41:38Then I have nothing left to say
00:41:40Insolence!
00:41:41Since you despise everything here so much
00:41:44Then get out!
00:41:45Go to the far north and never back again!
00:41:47Your majesty
00:41:48Please don't
00:41:49The far north borders the orc territories
00:41:52If Prince Cain goes there
00:41:54He will certainly die
00:41:56How is that possible?
00:41:57Aren't Blackstone City and Frostwave City still standing between them?
00:42:01Those two cities
00:42:02Have already
00:42:04Already what?
00:42:06Speak!
00:42:07They have already been ceded by Lady Irene
00:42:09To the orc empire of the Gromish royal court
00:42:12Your majesty
00:42:13Those two cities were nothing but barren wastelands
00:42:15I made the decision to precede them in exchange for peace along the borders
00:42:18They're only two worthless cities
00:42:20Then that's it
00:42:21Not a great deal
00:42:30This little beauty looks good
00:42:33Take her with us
00:42:36Let me go!
00:42:37Let me go!
00:42:41You beast!
00:42:42Let go of my daughter!
00:42:49With the king being this foolish
00:42:52Cade will fall
00:42:54Apologize to me now
00:42:55And I'll let you stay in the royal city
00:42:57Spare you from suffering in the far north
00:42:59There's no need
00:43:01I'll leave at once
00:43:02You would rather die than remain by my side?
00:43:05Yes
00:43:06There is no hope left here
00:43:08My heart has long since died
00:43:11I'm leaving now
00:43:15Report!
00:43:16A devastating locust playing has erupted in Gale Wind City
00:43:18The crops have all been devoured
00:43:20And countless civilians are starving to death
00:43:29Get in the movies!
00:43:31This is fucking
00:43:36Your majesty
00:43:37Silvermean City's been hit by the worst flood in a hundred years
00:43:40The dam collapsed
00:43:41The farmlands are gone
00:43:57Colin!
00:43:59Didn't you swear the kingdom was thriving?
00:44:01With good harvests
00:44:02Peaceful people
00:44:03No disasters
00:44:04Now we've got locusts and floods
00:44:07And you hid it from me?
00:44:08How dare you?
00:44:10Your Majesty! I swear I'm innocent!
00:44:13I just got word myself there was no time to report it sooner!
00:44:17Lies! You still dare make excuses! Guards, execute him now!
00:44:26This could be rumours spread by rebels.
00:44:28I'll send people to verify it immediately and get you the truth.
00:44:32Your Majesty, the reports are true.
00:44:35My spies across the kingdom just confirmed everything.
00:44:37Fine. If the disasters are real, then it's simple.
00:44:40Open the treasury. Send food and gold. The people will settle down soon enough.
00:44:46Your Majesty, the treasury, it's empty.
00:44:50We plan to raise taxes again after the birthday banquet just to keep the palace running.
00:44:54But now...
00:44:56No! That's impossible!
00:44:57We just collected taxes not long ago. How could the treasury be empty?
00:45:01The money's already gone, Your Majesty.
00:45:02The ceremonies, the banquets, palace renovations, rewards for your favourites. Nothing left.
00:45:09First, Cade has suffered through years of war. The people are exhausted. Lower the taxes and don't burden them any
00:45:17further.
00:45:18I already know that.
00:45:20Was I really wrong?
00:45:22No. I'm the king. Kings don't make mistakes.
00:45:27Irene! Think of something. We have to keep this under control no matter what.
00:45:33There's only one way left. Raise taxes again. Let the people suffer a little longer. And we survive this crisis.
00:45:41Yes.
00:45:57Hera. If Hera were here, none of this would have happened.
00:46:03It's been six months. Why won't you come back? Why can't you forgive me?
00:46:11You need to learn this properly. This is what keeps a kingdom standing.
00:46:15But you're already amazing at running the kingdom. We promised we'd be together forever.
00:46:20And I listen to everything you say anyway. Isn't that enough?
00:46:27It's all my fault. I should have listened to you. Didn't we promise we'd never leave each other? Then why
00:46:32aren't you here? Why?
00:46:34Cade's falling apart now. Disasters everywhere. People are suffering.
00:46:39Hera, are you really gonna stand there and watch me fail?
00:46:42Hera. I miss you. Please come back. Please save Cade. Save me.
00:46:57The king keeps squeezing the people dry. Now we've got locusts and floods back to back. The people can't survive
00:47:04like this.
00:47:05The king doubted you, humiliated you, and tried to kill you back then. You can't seriously go back and save
00:47:11him.
00:47:11Exactly. That royal family destroyed you. Why keep sacrificing yourself for people who betrayed you?
00:47:17But... the people are suffering.
00:47:24Hera!
00:47:27Why... why are you here?
00:47:33Your hands... what happened to them?
00:47:37It's usual to have these calluses. But you're a prince. Why aren't you in the capital?
00:47:44My brother... banished me.
00:47:50So even the last person willing to tell him the truth got driven away too.
00:47:55I'm so happy to see you here again. I'm also the late king's son, and I've admired you for long.
00:48:00Can I...
00:48:03The northern beast threat still isn't over. The kingdom's in chaos. I'm not thinking about love right now.
00:48:09I see. But I'd ask you a very great favour. Right now Irene controls everything. Taxes are crushing the people.
00:48:16And she already handed over two northern fortresses to the Gromish crown. The kingdom's falling apart. Hera, please, come back
00:48:23and save Cade's people.
00:48:24If that's the case, then for the sake of the people, I'll go back one more time.
00:48:30That's great! Things are already at the breaking point. We need a plan immediately.
00:48:35The situation isn't hopeless yet. If we can provide food and money to calm the people, the crisis can still
00:48:42be contained.
00:48:43The only thing I'm worried about is...
00:48:45What's that?
00:48:46Morlock of the North. He's fierce and hot-tempered. He can't be threatened, or if he's pushed too far, he'll
00:48:51rebel for sure.
00:48:52And once that happens, Cade will be facing enemies inside and outside the kingdom. There will be no saving it
00:48:57then.
00:48:58Moses can't be that foolish. He already made one mistake raising taxes. Surely he won't make another.
00:49:03I hope not.
00:49:06Your Majesty! General Morlock of the North is outside requesting an immediate audience!
00:49:10Morlock? Before Hera left, she repeatedly warned me to treat him with respect. He's fierce and hot-tempered. If pushed
00:49:16him too hard, he'll rebel.
00:49:18Pass down my order. Prepare the best wine and food. Welcome General Morack with the highest honors.
00:49:26Your Majesty, please don't! The treasury's already empty! Every coin matters right now!
00:49:32Morlock's nothing more than a surrendered general. He doesn't deserve the honors. Some ordinary food is more than enough.
00:49:39And he's obviously here to beg for tax relief for the people. But we can't lower taxes anymore. Leave this
00:49:47to me, Your Majesty. I'll put him in his place myself.
00:49:51But Hera warned me to treat him with respect. What you do could cause real trouble.
00:49:57You worry too much, Your Majesty. Men like him only understand strength. Leave everything to me. Nothing will go wrong.
00:50:12Your Majesty. I'm Morack. See, Your Majesty? Was I right?
00:50:18Looks like you were. This Morlock may look intimidating, but in the end he's just a defeated general with nowhere
00:50:23else to go. Fine. Get up and speak.
00:50:28Thank you, Your Majesty. You've traveled a long way here, must be exhausted. The journey means nothing. But today, in
00:50:35front of both you and the Grand Marshal, I need an answer.
00:50:39Huh? Go on.
00:50:41When Grand Marshal Hera united the Northern tribes, she made a promise before every soldier and citizen that the North
00:50:47would be exempt from taxes for five years. And if disaster or war ever struck, the Royal Treasury would provide
00:50:54relief for the people immediately.
00:50:56But what happened?
00:50:59Not only have you sent us nothing, you broke the agreement yourselves. You buried the people under Endless and drove
00:51:06them straight into hell! Is this how the Royal keeps its word?
00:51:10We swore loyalty to Cade because we believed in Hera's honor. But you've broken every promise she made! What explanation
00:51:18do you have for the Northern soldiers and citizens?
00:51:22How dare you? Are you openly questioning the Royal Court now? Or are you trying to challenge the King's authority?
00:51:30I've never questioned the Royal. I only ask for justice for my people.
00:51:36Royal policy is decided by the court, not by border warriors like you. Your only job is to control your
00:51:43territory, keep the border stable, and obey orders. And you can't even manage that. Yet you still dare bark at
00:51:50the King?
00:51:50A surrendered brute like you? Dares act arrogant in the Royal Hall? Who the hell do you think you are?
00:51:58Know your place, loser. The Royal family told you to guard the Northern Gate? So stay there and wag your
00:52:04tail. Don't come to the capital barking.
00:52:06You're nothing but a poor thing the Royal took in out of pity. We fed you. And you should have
00:52:12stayed grateful and obedient. Dare you disrespect your majesty and me? You deserve nothing!
00:52:19And that precious Hera you worship so much? She's nothing but a discarded failure the King threw away. A stray
00:52:26dog driven out of the palace. And my defeated loser. And my defeated loser.
00:52:32You bitch! How dare you insult Hera! You filthy little snake! For saying that alone, you deserve to die!
00:52:47Morlach! Are you insane? What the hell are you doing? I... I'm the Grand Marshal of the Kingdom!
00:52:55You're the Grand Marshal?
00:52:56That's right! Lay one finger on me and you'll be guilty of treason!
00:53:01The Grand Marshal is a useless, poisonous rat like you. Then Cade truly is finished!
00:53:05Morlach! How dare you! Let Eren go right now! Now!
00:53:09Hera once praised you a wise king carrying the people. But now that I've seen you with my own eyes,
00:53:13you're nothing but a blind fool surrounded by corrupt snakes.
00:53:16You insolent bastard! How dare you insult the King! Go to hell!
00:53:25Nobody move! Whoever takes one more step! I slip her throat right here! No mercy!
00:53:31Back off! All of you! Back off! Don't come near me, please!
00:53:34Why things become this bad? When Hera was here, everything's going well.
00:53:39Everyone! Move back immediately! Get to the sides!
00:53:43Your Majesty, you cannot let him leave alive. Morlach is too dangerous. If he escapes the palace today, he must
00:53:51raise an army and rebel.
00:53:52I beg you to execute him now and end this threat once and for all.
00:53:57Listen carefully. If anyone attacks me now, I'll drag Eren straight to hell with me.
00:54:01Your Majesty, save me! Don't listen to him! Lord Morlach, I'll give you money, land, power, anything you want! Just
00:54:08don't kill me!
00:54:08Huh! A coward like you actually sits in power? You're rotten to the bone!
00:54:12Your Majesty! Sacrificing Irene in exchange for killing Morlach would secure the kingdom for generations!
00:54:19For the sake of all Cade's people, you must not let him go!
00:54:22We beg your majesty to abandon Irene! Kill the traitor Morlach and protect the kingdom!
00:54:34My Hera, you've been working on military matters all morning, must be starving by now. Come on, try the food
00:54:39I made for you.
00:54:41You made all this yourself?
00:54:43Sure. This camp barely has supplies. If I had proper ingredients, I could make you a real feast.
00:54:48This is already more than enough. Thank you, my dear Cain.
00:54:53My Lady! Urgent military report! Urgent situation!
00:55:00What happened?
00:55:02Our scouts confirmed that Moravac openly turned against King Moses and Irene in the Royal Council Hall.
00:55:08The confrontation nearly exploded into bloodshred. God!
00:55:12Morlach's temper is terrifying. The openly challenging the royal family has completely caused a chaos.
00:55:17Morlach entered the capital with a handful of trusted men.
00:55:20If Moses had executed him on the spot to stop him returning the North, this rebellion could still have been
00:55:25prevented.
00:55:25But the King chose to save Irene instead. He ordered the guards to stand down and allowed Morlach to leave
00:55:30for the North safely.
00:55:33No! That's bad! A lot of innocent people are going to die now.
00:55:41You ungrateful traitor! The King spared your life out of mercy because of your past service. And this is how
00:55:47you repay him.
00:55:48The second you return North, you gather an army and openly rebel against the Crown. That's treason!
00:55:52So you're Irene's loser brother. Makes sense. As arrogant and useless as she is. Believe me, I could flatten this
00:55:59city in a second and cut off your head as my wine cup.
00:56:02Then open your damn eyes and look around. Our walls are unbreakable. Our food supplies are full and our soldiers
00:56:07are elite fighters.
00:56:08Even if all a hundred thousand of your men are here, you still won't touch these walls!
00:56:12Back when Hera guarded this kingdom, I might honor the court without crossing the line.
00:56:20Grand Marshal Hera!
00:56:21No need for formalities. I know you're loyal and honorable. Everything that happened before wasn't truly your choice.
00:56:28I will honor every single promise I made. To lower taxes, care for the soldiers and bring peace to the
00:56:35North. I swear it.
00:56:36But look at the kingdom now. A righteous leader like Hera was framed, humiliated, and driven out by corrupt cowards
00:56:43like you.
00:56:43I didn't raise this army for power. I'm fighting for Hera's honor. For justice for the suffering people of the
00:56:49North.
00:56:50North soldiers! Charge! Break Stonehold City! Fight for Hera's name! For peace of North!
00:57:00All soldiers! Rain arrows! Drop the boulders! Crush these traitors into pieces!
00:57:13Oh, no! Go! I'm fighting!
00:57:22Karen! Get the catapult ready! Launch me onto the wall! Release it! Full power!
00:57:37Stop him! Stop the monster!
00:57:39Kill him no matter what it takes!
00:57:53Look carefully!
00:57:54Your commander Fulton is now my prisoner.
00:57:59Nobody here can save him.
00:58:01I know exactly who most of you are.
00:58:04You once fought beside Hera on the battlefield.
00:58:07Now she's been framed and driven out by corrupt cowards.
00:58:11You feel nothing?
00:58:13No anger?
00:58:14No shame?
00:58:16I did not raise this army to betray the kingdom,
00:58:19but to restore Hera's honor,
00:58:20to make people of the north live in peace again!
00:58:25Throw down your weapons and surrender.
00:58:27I swear on my life as a warrior,
00:58:29no harm will come to you.
00:58:31You tell the truth!
00:58:32You fight with honor and righteousness!
00:58:34We're born to protect our homeland, not to die for Irene.
00:58:38I surrender willingly!
00:58:39We surrender!
00:58:40From now on, we're willing to follow you
00:58:42and restore justice for Hera!
00:58:45Your Majesty, thank you for giving me a second chance.
00:58:49I swear on my life, I'll devote everything to you forever.
00:58:53Never betray you!
00:58:57You swore to me that Morak was nothing more than a broken, defeated general.
00:59:02You said he had no courage left!
00:59:05Your Majesty, please calm down and think carefully about this.
00:59:09It's weird!
00:59:10Morlock kept mentioning Hera over and over again.
00:59:12If you ask me, Hera must be the real mastermind behind all of this.
00:59:16No.
00:59:17Is it truly Hera's secretly plotting against me?
00:59:20Think about it, Your Majesty.
00:59:21She once controlled the entire kingdom's military power, stood above everyone.
00:59:25After being stripped of everything and exiled,
00:59:27how could she possibly accept that?
00:59:29That's why she manipulated Morlock into storming the palace.
00:59:32It seems like I was the target,
00:59:34but in reality, she's humiliating the royal and attacking your authority
00:59:38and shaking your throne step by step.
00:59:40Damn her.
00:59:42She can't defeat me openly, so now she hides and plays dirty,
00:59:45letting her followers create chaos,
00:59:48humiliating me, provoking the entire kingdom of Kaeda.
00:59:51Everyone knows Hera's good at winning people over.
00:59:53She tricks soldiers and silizans with fake kindness and pretty words.
00:59:57We absolutely cannot fall for her lies.
00:59:59Must crush her scheme before it's too late.
01:00:01But it's already too late!
01:00:03I let Morlock go to save you,
01:00:05giving him chance to rally all his forces and march south.
01:00:07How are we supposed to stop this war?
01:00:09Don't panic, Your Majesty.
01:00:11I've already prepared for this.
01:00:12My brother Fulton is guarding Stonehold City,
01:00:15the only path from the north to the capital.
01:00:17Its defenses are impenetrable, and the supplies are abundant.
01:00:20As long as Stonehold stands,
01:00:22Morrick will never reach the capital city.
01:00:23And my brother's a battle-hardened general.
01:00:25Morlock may be strong, but he's just a brute.
01:00:30There's no way he can break through the defenses.
01:00:32You can rest easy, Your Majesty.
01:00:36Your Majesty!
01:00:38Terrible news from the front lines!
01:00:40Morack's army has completely captured Stonehold City!
01:00:43General Fulton had his neck crushed by Morack!
01:01:07Morack's army has broken through the north and is marching straight for the capital.
01:01:12Tell me, at this point, is there even a way to turn this around?
01:01:19Your Majesty!
01:01:20Please calm your anger!
01:01:23I...
01:01:23I have one final plan that can save the kingdom from destruction!
01:01:27Then spit it out!
01:01:28Now!
01:01:29The soldiers in capital are too weak to stop Morlock's hundred thousand elite riders.
01:01:34The only option is to send envoys to the Orkin Empire.
01:01:38Offer them whatever they want in exchange for their forces to crush this rebellion!
01:01:44Absolutely not!
01:01:45I will never agree to something this insane!
01:01:48Your Majesty!
01:01:49Remember my final warning.
01:01:51Never forget it.
01:01:54The Orcs are savage by nature.
01:01:56Bloodthirsty and ambitious.
01:01:58They've always coveted the rich lands of Cade.
01:02:01They can never be trusted.
01:02:02I have never forgotten Hera's warning.
01:02:04The Orcs are greedy wolves.
01:02:06Allying with them would be suicidal.
01:02:09It could destroy Cade.
01:02:12Your Majesty!
01:02:13This is no time to hesitate!
01:02:14Mordech's army is launching straight for us!
01:02:16He wants your throne!
01:02:18The Orcs only want gold, food, and a small piece of border territory.
01:02:22If paying that price protects your crown and saves all our lives, it's more than worth it!
01:02:27Fine.
01:02:28We've almost reached the dead end.
01:02:29There's no other choice now.
01:02:31I'll take the risk.
01:02:32Rest easy, Your Majesty.
01:02:33I'll send trusted envoys to the Orc Empire tonight to secure the Alliance and get their army as fast as
01:02:38possible.
01:02:54Marshal Hera, the undefeated goddess of war...
01:02:56You're finally here!
01:02:58I've waited day and night for this moment.
01:03:00You have no idea how those snakes in the royal court slandered you, humiliated you, and trampled all over your
01:03:05loyalty in front of the entire palace.
01:03:07I'm clear with everything.
01:03:08You've carried too much anger and injustice these past months.
01:03:11King's blind and Irene controls the court.
01:03:13I understand exactly what's going on.
01:03:15But we're warriors to protect the people.
01:03:18No matter what happens, we cannot start a war lightly.
01:03:21Now I need you to order the army to withdraw north.
01:03:24Show the kingdom our sincerity.
01:03:26I'll personally return to the capital and negotiate with the king one last time.
01:03:29If he still insists on dragging the kingdom deeper into ruin, we'll march and take back justice for everyone.
01:03:37Marshal Hera, I don't want my soldiers dying meaninglessly either.
01:03:41I'll follow every order you give, without question.
01:03:45My ministers!
01:03:47Morlach has completely taken Stonehold City.
01:03:50His rebel army could arrive at the capital any moment now.
01:03:53So does anyone here have a plan to save this kingdom?
01:03:57Amazing.
01:03:57You talk endlessly like genius every day.
01:04:00But now that the kingdom's collapsing, suddenly everyone's silent?
01:04:04Where is my royal guard?
01:04:06Why is there not even one soldier here to protect me?
01:04:09Your majesty, the royal family has already lost the people's support completely.
01:04:13Disasters spread across the kingdom, but the court failed to help the citizens.
01:04:17Then taxes kept rising again and again.
01:04:19The people's anger has reached its limit.
01:04:21At this point, the royal guard exists in name alone.
01:04:26The orcs are probably still days away.
01:04:29There's no army and no general left in the capital.
01:04:31If Morlach attacks now, my throne, my life, my everything are gone.
01:04:37Urgent military report, your majesty.
01:04:40Speak!
01:04:41What happened?
01:04:42Morlach's hundred thousand man army has completely withdrawn.
01:04:46What?
01:04:47They retreated.
01:04:48Why would they suddenly pull back without reasons?
01:04:50I couldn't uncover the reason, your majesty.
01:04:52But I personally saw the entire army break camp and retreat over a hundred miles north.
01:05:01Your majesty!
01:05:03Isn't the answer obvious?
01:05:06My strategy worked perfectly.
01:05:08Just the threat of my preparations alone terrified Morric so badly that he fled without even fighting.
01:05:18Then would you explain what strategy scared away a hundred thousand elite soldiers overnight?
01:05:24I secretly sent trusted envoys to the orc emperor long ago.
01:05:28The alliance has already been secured.
01:05:31Their elite reinforcements are on the way to the capital as we speak.
01:05:35Morlach must have learned about it and realizes he could never defeat our combined forces.
01:05:39So that's why!
01:05:41Irene's brilliant strategy intimidated the rebels and forced back a hundred thousand enemy troops without sacrificing a single soldier from
01:05:48the capital.
01:05:49Irene, you are the kingdom's greatest killer.
01:05:52My most trusted minister.
01:05:54Your majesty, please reconsider.
01:05:56You cannot make this mistake.
01:05:57It's killing ourselves.
01:05:59They are long coveting our lands.
01:06:00Even the late king personally led the campaign against them and died on the battlefield.
01:06:04That blood feed hasn't been settled.
01:06:06How can you bow your head to our greatest enemy and invite them into our kingdom?
01:06:09You're condemning Cade to destruction with your own hands.
01:06:12Your majesty, think carefully.
01:06:14The orcs are cruel by nature.
01:06:16Once they cross our borders, every town in their path will be burnt and looted.
01:06:21Countless innocent civilians will be slaughtered.
01:06:23The people of Cade will be dragged straight into hell.
01:06:27Is the man on the wall, General Garrick?
01:06:30Open the gate immediately.
01:06:32Your king, Moses, ordered my army to enter the city, crush the rebels, and capture Morlock.
01:06:40This concerns the safety of the capital and the lives of every citizen inside.
01:06:47I need to verify the royal decree myself before opening the gates.
01:06:51How dare you?
01:06:53You're just a gate commander, and you dare disobey your king's orders?
01:06:59Delaying military business alone is enough reason for me to cut your head off right now.
01:07:06General!
01:07:07General!
01:07:08Urgent news from the front lines.
01:07:10Morlock's entire army has already withdrawn.
01:07:13The capital's no longer under threat.
01:07:15Commander Gromj, I've received confirmed military reports.
01:07:20The rebels already retreated north.
01:07:22Your mission here is over.
01:07:24Take your army and return to the old empire immediately.
01:07:27No remain near the capital.
01:07:32You think I marched all this way for nothing?
01:07:35Don't be ridiculous.
01:07:37Warriors, attack the city!
01:07:39Burn this capper to the ground!
01:07:41Take whatever you want!
01:07:43Gold, food, treasures, women!
01:07:44Everything inside belongs to you, show no mercy!
01:07:48All troops, prepare for battle!
01:07:50Archers, fire!
01:07:52Drop the stones!
01:07:54Pour the oil!
01:07:55Hold the gates!
01:08:00Gromj!
01:08:01You savage beast!
01:08:03Never trample the capital of Cadet!
01:08:22Kill whoever you want!
01:08:24Take them to the city!
01:08:26Loot everything!
01:08:27Burn everything!
01:08:28Kill whoever you want!
01:08:30Take whatever you want!
01:08:32Tonight, we feast!
01:08:40Urgent!
01:08:41Your Majesty, Gromj has forcibly breached the main gate.
01:08:43General Garrick, who was defending the capital, has fallen in battle.
01:08:46He died fighting to the end.
01:08:50No, no!
01:08:51That's impossible!
01:08:53Garrick was personally appointed by the late king.
01:08:58He fought through his entire life on the battlefield
01:09:01and defended this kingdom for decades!
01:09:06How could he just die like that?
01:09:08It's true, Your Majesty!
01:09:10I saw it with my own eyes!
01:09:12General Garrick fought Gromj alone and never backed down
01:09:14until the final blow from the axe struck him down on the city wall.
01:09:18The orc army is advancing at full speed.
01:09:20Within half a day, they will reach the palace gates.
01:09:26It's the end.
01:09:27The capital is gone.
01:09:29Who can protect me?
01:09:31Who can save Cade?
01:09:32I don't want to die by those monsters.
01:09:35Your Majesty!
01:09:36The capital has fallen into chaos.
01:09:37Our defenses are collapsing.
01:09:38Our soldiers are dead on the battlefield.
01:09:40And innocent pavilions are being slaughtered!
01:09:42We're caused by Irene!
01:09:43She invited orc forces into our land.
01:09:45She dragged the entire kingdom into hell!
01:09:47She must be executed immediately!
01:09:48Only her death can crime the people's rage!
01:09:50Execute Irene!
01:09:52Pay for the capital with her life!
01:09:58Your Majesty, please believe me!
01:10:00I never betrayed the kingdom!
01:10:01I only wanted to use the foreign to stabilize the situation and protect you!
01:10:05I am loyal to you!
01:10:07I was misled!
01:10:08I never intended this outcome!
01:10:10Irene!
01:10:11You're nothing but a dirty liar!
01:10:13You deceived the king!
01:10:14You pushed out loyal medicines!
01:10:16You brought foreign beasts into our homeland to slaughter our people!
01:10:20Your crimes are unforgivable!
01:10:22I will end you myself!
01:10:25Your Majesty, save me!
01:10:27Stop him!
01:10:27Don't kill me!
01:10:28I'm still useful!
01:10:34Please, Your Majesty, spare me!
01:10:38I can still help you!
01:10:40I can serve you with my everything!
01:10:42Irene, there's no way out anymore.
01:10:44The kingdom has reached its end.
01:10:47Only your death can calm everyone's rage.
01:10:50Only then will I have the face to beg Hera to return.
01:10:52Right now, she is the only one who can save Cade.
01:10:57Byron, give me the sword.
01:11:01Your Majesty, what are you doing?
01:11:02No, please, spare me!
01:11:04I'm loyal to you!
01:11:05I will personally execute you who destroyed my kingdom.
01:11:07I regret it.
01:11:08I regret ever listening to you.
01:11:11No!
01:11:12Please!
01:11:13I was wrong!
01:11:15I beg you!
01:11:15I'm loyal to you!
01:11:45I regret you!
01:11:45Are you really going back to the battlefield? To fight orcs?
01:11:48The whole of Cade is drowning in war and suffering.
01:11:51For every innocent life caught in this chaos, I have no choice.
01:11:56Then come back alive.
01:11:58When you do, I'll give you a big wedding.
01:12:03The orcs? No way.
01:12:05The palace is impenetrable. How could they reach us this fast?
01:12:08Of course I arranged everything.
01:12:10Sir, it's me who opened the hidden gate so that you could break in.
01:12:14You must protect me.
01:12:15You're right.
01:12:16Thanks to you, we could break into the palace this easily.
01:12:18You witch!
01:12:19You betrayed me and the kingdom for glory.
01:12:22Colluded with our enemies and stained your hands with countless lives.
01:12:24You are the true traitor of Cade.
01:12:26Unforgivable for all eternity.
01:12:28I regret it.
01:12:29I truly regret it.
01:12:30I was blinded by your evil lies and exiled Hera on my own.
01:12:34You regret it? Too late!
01:12:36You were the one who killed the loyal and forced Hera out.
01:12:39Everything happening now is your own doing.
01:12:41You never deserve the throne.
01:12:44You are nothing but a weak and incompetent king.
01:12:48Hera, I was wrong.
01:12:50I was truly wrong.
01:12:51Your Majesty, the situation is hopeless.
01:12:54I'll hold them off while you flee at once.
01:12:57I am the king of Cade.
01:13:00How can a king run away?
01:13:01I won't leave.
01:13:04I won't leave.
01:13:04Your Majesty, please.
01:13:06Leave now or it's too late.
01:13:12There's nowhere left to run.
01:13:15Cade's over today.
01:13:18I will protect the king to my last bleth.
01:13:21Cade's over.
01:13:30No, I'm not right.
01:13:38You're gonna die.
01:13:40Run!
01:13:45Pathetic old man.
01:13:50Thorne, I'm sorry! I should have listened to you!
01:13:54Your Majesty, don't say that. Run. Only you can save Cayde.
01:14:05In our old empire, we have a punishment for fallen kings.
01:14:10It's called Forsaken Prisoner.
01:14:14Bring the chains and the collar! Let him be humiliated by a slave!
01:14:23Kill me! Just kill me! I'd rather die than be humiliated like this! Please!
01:14:29Death? Not yet.
01:14:32Crawl. Show everyone what the king has become.
