Short filmTranscript
00:00:01Gentlemen, the highlight of today's feast is about to begin.
00:00:06My two daughters, Julia and Chloe, shall choose their husbands from among you.
00:00:10I swear by the honor of the Quintius family, whoever catches these wreaths shall be wed.
00:00:18These are all senate nobles. Quintius and their spice merchants to climb the social ladder.
00:00:22Your betrothals will determine if this family joins the nobility.
00:00:26Be careful when you throw those weeds.
00:00:27Whoever secures the highest status husband will be the family hero.
00:00:32Baby, mummy knows you will marry much better than Julia.
00:00:36Sister, let me go first.
00:00:43Gaius, we've been in love for two years.
00:00:46He promised he would only catch my wreath today.
00:00:53Throw it to me, Miss Chloe Quinteria!
00:00:55I love you!
00:00:56Miss Chloe Quinteria!
00:00:57Gaius!
00:00:58What is he doing?
00:01:00We had a pact!
00:01:02Throw it to me, Miss Chloe Quinteria!
00:01:05Gaius!
00:01:06Catch it!
00:01:11Magnificent!
00:01:12The eldest son of the elite Fulius family!
00:01:16Oh dear sister, Gaius caught my wreath.
00:01:18I guess he prefers me.
00:01:19No, this can't be right!
00:01:21Gaius and I made a promise!
00:01:22He said he would marry me!
00:01:23Chloe!
00:01:24You are truly my pride and joy!
00:01:30Darling, I will give you the grandest imperial wedding the Empire has ever seen.
00:01:38Gaius!
00:01:39Gaius!
00:01:39Don't you owe me an explanation?
00:01:41I'm the one you're dating!
00:01:44Sorry, Julia.
00:01:45You have no maternal backing.
00:01:47And your father doesn't value you.
00:01:49I have to marry your stepsister.
00:01:51Then what were the last two years for?
00:01:54Sister, isn't it obvious?
00:01:56Gaius just playing with you.
00:01:58Now the men below are still waiting for your wreath.
00:02:00Who knows?
00:02:01Maybe even the Emperor is down there.
00:02:06Your Majesty, you've been undercover as a beggar for three months to expose the noble's crimes.
00:02:15Let the Praetorian Guard handle the rest.
00:02:20There's evidence I must secure some personal.
00:02:22Besides, being out here is a perfect way to dodge my mother's marriage demands.
00:02:26Two birds, one stone.
00:02:34Don't go.
00:02:35Your destiny's right down there.
00:02:54Look!
00:02:55Quintius's oldest daughter has chosen a beggar!
00:03:06A rich eyeless picking a beggar at a wreath ceremony!
00:03:10This is gonna be quite the show!
00:03:13How did that handmade Ruth end up on a beggar's head?
00:03:17Sister, talk about bad luck.
00:03:19Of all people, you picked a beggar.
00:03:21How is father ever going to show his face again?
00:03:23You useless girl!
00:03:25Out of all these people, you threw it to a beggar!
00:03:27You're doing this just to humiliate me!
00:03:32Well, don't be discouraged, sister.
00:03:34You'll be poor, but I'm sure he's an expert at scavenging leftovers.
00:03:37At least you won't starve!
00:03:39A grand lady marrying a beggar!
00:03:42Surely Mr. Quintius will go back on his word!
00:03:45If she doesn't marry him, your word is worth nothing!
00:03:48You'll be finished in this city!
00:03:51Marry him! Marry him!
00:03:53Marry him!
00:03:53Marry him!
00:03:56Marry him!
00:03:57Marry him!
00:04:00Marry him!
00:04:01Marry him!
00:04:01Marry him!
00:04:01Marry him!
00:04:02Marry him!
00:04:03You!
00:04:04When such!
00:04:05Are you trying to run away from the engagement?
00:04:10Marry him!
00:04:12Your majesty!
00:04:13Why did you catch it?
00:04:14This means a binding marriage contract.
00:04:16Toss it quickly!
00:04:17It's fine, I'm poor and filthy right now.
00:04:19A highborn lady like her would never actually agree to marry me.
00:04:22why are you running you threw the wreath yourself no one forced you you rebellious girl look at this
00:04:27beggar you've been scaled if you marry him our family will be the laughing stock of the empire
00:04:32after today's feast i've finally seen these so-called nobles for the hypocrites they are
00:04:37i'd rather marry a commoner and escape the schemes than spend my life as a pawn for noble alliances
00:04:43julia the law of the wreath is absolute if it lands on him you must marry him even if he
00:04:49is a beggar
00:04:57i am willing to marry this gentleman
00:05:05my name is julia quintilia what is yours my name is marcus aurelius marcus aurelius why does that
00:05:13name sound so familiar it's a common name rome is full of them there's nothing strange about it
00:05:20let everyone witness i take this man as my husband you truly have no regrets i have nothing
00:05:29i am a wanderer with no hope i do we both have hands and feet we can build our own
00:05:35future
00:05:35if we work hard and find jobs we will be just fine i've never met a girl so easily satisfied
00:05:40it's a pity i cannot tell her who i truly am just yet i promise you i will never fail
00:05:45you
00:05:45enough treating a beggar like a prize you are throwing your entire future away
00:05:49a future isn't built on status but on character and virtue he may be dressed in rags but he lacks
00:05:53the arrogance and hypocrisy of the nobility i believe he will be a good husband worthy of my
00:05:57life she must marry him you said whoever was hit must marry if you break your word no one will
00:06:02ever
00:06:02trust the quintius family again yes she must marry him no backing out now julia if you insist on

00:06:19beneath me
00:06:21being a beggar's wife isn't scary what's scary is sharing a bed with a soul that isn't yours gaius
00:06:26is rip but he's a calculator you'd better watch your own back
00:06:40then we shall hold our wedding at the temple in three days
00:06:45my mother is obsessed with getting me married anyway so why not good i will be there
00:07:01the two quintius daughters are marrying today but look at the difference it's insane it's more
00:07:07than that the younger one married a relative of the emperor and will live in luxury
00:07:10the eldest married a beggar and will only know suffering
00:07:19sister why are you here alone where's your husband did even that beggar dump you
00:07:27she didn't seem like the type to break his word i'm here

00:08:53the finger of my true wife

00:09:03holy temple how
00:09:04dare you present such rush before the gods you are a disgrace to the quinterius name
00:09:09this is supposed to be a legitimate marriage contract and you bring this julia aren't you
00:09:15absolutely humiliated marriage is about the connection of souls not the price of a ring
00:09:20i have chosen marcus as my husband and nothing you say can change my heart silence haven't you brought
00:09:25enough shame to this family don't waste your health on such an ungrateful daughter she'll be living in

00:15:17so this is the eldest quentius daughter who insisted on marrying a beggar
00:15:22crashing the party where's your beggar husband too ashamed to show his face
00:15:26marcus has personal business to attend to
00:15:29personal business for a commoner he's not exactly the emperor is he he's just terrified of being the laughing stock
00:15:38i bet he's already bored of you abandoned on the second day of marriage why not become my mistress instead

00:15:46as for you chloe if this man could deceive and abandon me he'll do the same to you the moment
00:15:51a better offer comes along
00:15:52you you married a homeless beggar
00:15:55my daughter married a noble there is no comparison
00:15:59look at these these are the lavish gifts gaius brought
00:16:08and this contract i shall petition his majesty augustus to grant the quintius family
00:16:13a title of nobility
00:16:17you said you came to visit father so where is your gift
00:16:27father i made these honey cakes myself i hope you like them
00:16:35honey cakes what are those worth a few copper how embarrassing
00:16:39it's a gift from the heart from my husband and me
00:16:42heart is a beggar's sentiment worth anything
00:16:45julia you are a total disgrace to my name
00:16:49throw her out i never want to see her again
00:16:55varus quintius the imperial palace has sent birthday gifts
00:17:02the palace
00:17:03his majesty
00:17:04i don't have nearly enough status for the emperor to send me gifts
00:17:08it is because of your daughter is it her or her
00:17:16such lavish gifts
00:17:18could it be the eldest daughter didn't marry a commoner after all
00:17:21you must be mistaken
00:17:24julia married a beggar there's no way she has palace connections
00:17:26you're a relative of the emperor one of your uncles must have sent this for you right
00:17:30oh very likely they must have been worried my own gift wasn't grand enough so they sent a backup
00:17:36see i told you a beggar could never afford such luxury
00:17:41you two are the ones who truly bring honor to this family
00:17:44unlike julia you truly sicken me from now on i have only one daughter julia is no daughter of mine
00:17:50chloe married a noble and suddenly she's his only child
00:17:53my handmade gift means nothing to him
00:17:56they say a father's love is unconditional
00:17:58but you

00:22:51Someone help.
00:22:56Someone help!
00:23:09His Majesty Augustus has arrived.
00:23:32Who dares bully my wife?
00:23:47Julia, I'm so sorry. I'm late.
00:23:52At least, I didn't lose your ring.
00:23:58His Majesty? Impossible! He's just a beggar!
00:24:03But look at all those guards!
00:24:05Mom! No way! He must have hired actors!
00:24:09I've only seen statues of the Emperor, but he looks exactly like them.
00:24:14Looking like him doesn't make him him.
00:24:16He probably stole those clothes just to save face!
00:24:19What a joke! A beggar playing dress-up at my birthday party!
00:24:24Sister, look at the trash you married.
00:24:26Homeless and now impersonating the Emperor?
00:24:30If His Majesty finds out, you're both dead.
00:24:33You truly have a death wish.
00:24:46You... what are you doing?
00:24:48Julia, let's go.
00:24:51What's wrong?
00:24:53Who did this?
00:24:58I did.
00:24:59So what?
00:25:02Who knew she'd actually crawl through thorns for a piece of wood?
00:25:05Bitch!
00:25:06Shut up!
00:25:07Who the hell do you think you are?
00:25:08You dare shout at me?
00:25:09I'll curse her all I want.
00:25:11She married a loser like you.
00:25:12I am Lady Fulius.
00:25:14If I kill you today, you should thank me.
00:25:16Enough acting!
00:25:17Guards!
00:25:18Arrest this beggar and Julia!
00:25:27No one insults my wife and lives.
00:25:32Seize them!
00:25:46Are you insane?
00:25:48I am Lady Fulius!
00:25:50If you dare touch me!
00:25:54Gaius, help me.
00:25:56Whoever kills him gets a hundred thousand Sesteraians!
00:26:07You stinking beggar!
00:26:09The Fulius family are relatives of the Emperor!
00:26:13How dare you!
00:26:14I dare.
00:26:15And I can wipe the Fulius family off the face of the earth.
00:26:20You're overacting, beggar!
00:26:22Let me go before I get really angry and I might spare you!
00:26:26Shove their faces into the sacred fire.
00:26:31Stop!
00:26:32My brother is a consular!
00:26:33You think you'll walk out of here alive?
00:26:37Since when was the consul from the Fulius family?
00:26:41Scared?
00:26:41Then let us go and beg for mercy!
00:26:46Hold them down!
00:26:49My brother will destroy you!
00:26:52You'll regret this beggar!
00:26:55Marcus, his brother is the consul.
00:26:58Maybe we should...
00:26:59No, Julia.
00:27:00They hurt you.
00:27:02I'm making them pay.
00:27:03My brother is a consul!
00:27:05I'll have you all killed!
00:27:06Get off me, you filthy beggar!
00:27:08I'll tear you apart!
00:27:09Stop!
00:27:11Stop!
00:27:12Brother!
00:27:13Save me!
00:27:14Help!
00:27:15Help!
00:27:16Help!
00:27:17Go get him!
00:27:22You're the one touching my brother!
00:27:25The emperor's guard?
00:27:28Why are they here?
00:27:34It's me.
00:27:36So what?
00:27:41Your majesty?
00:27:47He really is!
00:27:48The emperor!
00:27:50The emperor!
00:27:55Augustus?
00:27:56No!
00:27:57He was a beggar!
00:27:58It's impossible!
00:28:00Brother!
00:28:00He's lying!
00:28:01Those clothes are stolen!
00:28:03Those actors are paid!
00:28:04It's fake!
00:28:06Yes, Mr. Isaac!
00:28:08You're mistaken!
00:28:08He's just a beggar!
00:28:10He can't be the emperor exactly!
00:28:12Why would the emperor be in this dump?
00:28:14Maybe it is a coincidence.
00:28:16The emperor would never be here.
00:28:18You rebel!
00:28:19Look at the husband you chose!
00:28:22Impersonating the emperor and offending the senate!
00:28:25How will you fix this?
00:28:26This beggar almost killed someone!
00:28:29Don't let him go!
00:28:30In the name of the consul, take them to the dungeon!
00:28:40My son...
00:28:41His majesty...
00:28:43Still refuses to come home?
00:28:46I heard...
00:28:47He married a woman out there.
00:28:50Ridiculous!
00:28:51I'm bringing him back myself!
00:28:56In the name of the consul, take them to the dungeon!
00:29:00In the name of the consul, you're no consul.
00:29:03You have no authority here!
00:29:08You beggar!
00:29:09You know nothing of the law!
00:29:11How dare you question my brother!
00:29:17Julia!
00:29:18No one can save you today!
00:29:21I can't let anything happen to my husband!
00:29:28They have the consul.
00:29:30We have to go.
00:29:32Your wounds...
00:29:34I'm letting them go for today to save you.
00:29:37Running away?
00:29:38No chance!
00:30:14No chance!
00:30:16Marcus!
00:30:19Chloe!
00:30:20Chloe!
00:30:20We share the same blood!
00:30:22How can you be so heartless?
00:30:25He tried to disfadger me first.
00:30:29I won't let you go that easily.
00:30:31You're dead!
00:30:40Don't bother!
00:30:41Your little actors are too busy to save you!
00:30:44Marcus!
00:30:45Go!
00:30:46Save yourself!
00:30:47Just go!
00:30:48Go?
00:30:49He's not going anywhere.
00:30:51Why?
00:30:52Why won't you just leave us alone?
00:30:56You're so lucky, sister.
00:30:58Even a beggar loves you.
00:31:01The more you love him,
00:31:03the more I want to break you.
00:31:06Our grudge is between us!
00:31:08Do what you want to me,
00:31:09but please!
00:31:10Let Marcus go!
00:31:14Julia,
00:31:15don't waste your breath.
00:31:18I can't let you pay for my life.
00:31:21How touching.
00:31:22Flirting at death's door.
00:31:24Fine.
00:31:25I'll kill you both together.
00:31:28The Empress' daughter is here!
00:31:30She's here!
00:31:37No!
00:31:40No!
00:31:48Who dares harm my son?
00:31:53Marta Teneros!
00:32:07Our son.
00:32:09He really is the Emperor.
00:32:11Shh.
00:32:16Julia.
00:32:18Julia!
00:32:19Stay with me!
00:32:21Physician!
00:32:21Get a physician!
00:32:28Stretch her now!
00:32:33Your Majesty,
00:32:35Quintius' family is in custody.
00:32:37Marcus!
00:32:37You worried me to death.
00:32:40He really is.
00:32:41The Emperor.
00:32:43Arrest the entire Quantilius' family!
00:32:45Sell them into slavery!
00:32:52And you,
00:32:53Isaac,
00:32:54you're no consul.
00:32:55Who are you?
00:32:57He's just a eunuch.
00:32:59Fire him
00:33:00and throw him in the dungeon
00:33:02with the rest of them.
00:33:04He really was the Emperor.
00:33:07I chose wrong.
00:33:10Mercy,
00:33:11Your Majesty,
00:33:11please!
00:33:12I was blind.
00:33:14Please,
00:33:15have mercy,
00:33:16Your Majesty.
00:33:17You didn't show Julia mercy.
00:33:19Why should I show you any?
00:33:25It can't be.
00:33:26How?
00:33:28They forced me!
00:33:29It was them!
00:33:30Please,
00:33:31we're relatives.
00:33:32Spare me!
00:33:38Spare me!
00:33:40Mercy,
00:33:41Your Majesty!
00:33:42Please!
00:33:52Go to that girl.
00:33:59Julia,
00:34:00you're awake.
00:34:01Are you hurt?
00:34:02I'm okay.
00:34:04Lie down.
00:34:08The physician said you need rest.
00:34:10How did we get here?
00:34:12I heard Empress,
00:34:13His Majesty,
00:34:15who saved us.
00:34:18Break the engagement.
00:34:20She isn't right for you.
00:34:22Mother,
00:34:22she's different.
00:34:23She's the woman I've chosen.
00:34:25The royal family isn't simple.
00:34:27If you want her,
00:34:28she must pass my test.
00:34:29But you cannot tell her the truth yet.
00:34:31Mata Senna has saved us.
00:34:34Why would she save us?
00:34:35Do you know her?
00:34:37I'm just a beggar.
00:34:38She just happened to be passing by.
00:34:41Don't worry.
00:34:42I'll protect you from now on.
00:34:43She's giving us jobs in the palace.
00:34:45You as a maid,
00:34:46me as a guard.
00:34:47It's wonderful.
00:34:48We can save up for our own home.
00:34:53I'm sorry, Julia,
00:34:55for keeping the truth from you.
00:34:57Forgive me.
00:35:02Miss Julia,
00:35:04you will be working here.
00:35:09I will come find you
00:35:10as soon as I am free.
00:35:11All right.
00:35:12I will work hard
00:35:13so we can earn money together
00:35:14and build our little home.
00:35:18Damon,
00:35:19you really should have given me
00:35:21some notice
00:35:22before bringing in a newcomer.
00:35:25Lady Liar,
00:35:26this is Julia.
00:35:26She's new to the palace
00:35:27and still learning the ropes.
00:35:29I'd appreciate it
00:35:29if you could look up.
00:35:30Do not let her suffer
00:35:31any mistreatment.
00:35:34I have much to learn.
00:35:35I would be grateful
00:35:36for your instruction, my lady.
00:35:38Rest assured, Damon.
00:35:39I will see to Julia personally.
00:35:41I won't have her doing me near late.
00:35:43I shall instruct her
00:35:44in the proper editict myself.
00:35:48Marcus.
00:35:51Something feels wrong.
00:35:53I came here to be a maid.
00:35:55Yet why do they look at me
00:35:57as if I were the Empress?
00:36:02Perhaps Lady Liar
00:36:03is simply kind-hearted
00:36:04towards newcomers.
00:36:05Don't overthink it.
00:36:06Just focus on your tasks.
00:36:08Julia.
00:36:10Come with me.
00:36:11I will show you
00:36:12how to achieve the scrolls.
00:36:24You, new girl,
00:36:25start by scrubbing this floor.
00:36:27If you dare to slack off,
00:36:28you'll regret it.
00:36:28Tasks were assigned in advance.
00:36:30Why are you shiving
00:36:30your duties onto me?
00:36:32We are all kneeling here
00:36:34scrubbing in the filth.
00:36:36Yet a newcomer
00:36:37gets the easy work?
00:36:38It isn't right.
00:36:40Exactly.
00:36:41Why should you receive
00:36:42such favor from Lady Liar?
00:36:44Ugh.
00:37:03A wooden ring.
00:37:04This is the Emperor's own heirloom.
00:37:06Quick, find Lady Liar.
00:37:08Tell her we port a seat.
00:37:09I don't care about any Emperor.
00:37:11This was a gift from my husband.
00:37:13Give it back.
00:37:14Your husband?
00:37:16What do you dream your husband
00:37:17is Augustus himself?
00:37:19You're a thief!
00:37:20Hold her down.
00:37:21Don't let her escape.
00:37:24Halt.
00:37:26All of you.
00:37:29Marta Senatus,
00:37:31it is far too filthy here.
00:37:32Perhaps you should return?
00:37:34I have taken this disguise
00:37:35to see for myself
00:37:36what kind of person
00:37:37Julia truly is.
00:37:38Remember,
00:37:39she must not know who I am.
00:37:43Silence!
00:37:46I leave for one moment
00:37:48and you descend into chaos.
00:37:56Lady Liar,
00:37:57Julia has stolen
00:37:58the Emperor's ring.
00:37:59How can a thief
00:38:00be allowed in the palace?
00:38:02You must have her seized
00:38:03and cast out at once.
00:38:04Lady Liar,
00:38:05please let me explain.
00:38:06It isn't what it seems.
00:38:07The truth is...
00:38:08Enough!
00:38:08Hand over the ring!
00:38:10The ring is mine.
00:38:11I did not steal it.
00:38:12I said,
00:38:13give it to me!
00:38:22It truly is
00:38:23His Majesty's ring.
00:38:27This ring really is
00:38:28Marcus's.
00:38:29Marcus.
00:38:31He gave her
00:38:32something so sacred.
00:38:33She is bold enough
00:38:34to steal from the Emperor.
00:38:36Who knows
00:38:37what she'll do next?
00:38:38She should be
00:38:39beaten to death.
00:38:40Lady Liar,
00:38:41please listen.
00:38:42This ring was given to me
00:38:43by the person
00:38:44I hold most dear.
00:38:45It was not stolen
00:38:46and it certainly
00:38:47does not belong
00:38:48to the Emperor.
00:38:49If it's proven
00:38:49that this ring
00:38:50belongs to Marcus,
00:38:51won't his identity
00:38:52be exposed?
00:38:54I shall keep
00:38:55this ring for now.
00:38:56Once the truth
00:38:57is revealed,
00:38:58it will be returned
00:38:59to you.
00:39:01Thanks.
00:39:02Listen well.
00:39:03This is official Dora.
00:39:05She will manage you
00:39:06alongside me.
00:39:07Keep to your places.
00:39:09If anyone is found
00:39:10idy or deceptive,
00:39:11you shall taste the lash.
00:39:13Yes, ma'am.
00:39:14Drauling in the palace
00:39:15is forbidden.
00:39:16Your punishment
00:39:17is latrine duty.
00:39:18You shall not eat
00:39:19until they are spotless.
00:39:20Yes, my lady.
00:39:30At least this will
00:39:31dull the stench.
00:39:33Your Majesty,
00:39:34Lady Leora,
00:39:35your childhood sweetheart
00:39:36is back.
00:39:37Won't you go
00:39:37and see her?
00:39:39Sweetheart,
00:39:39don't use that word
00:39:40for us.
00:39:41I have no heart
00:39:42for her.
00:39:43Leave us.
00:39:43I am going
00:39:44to see Julia.
00:39:45Your presence
00:39:46will expose
00:39:46my identity
00:39:47sooner or later.
00:40:00They have you
00:40:00cleaning this filth?
00:40:02This is a disgrace!
00:40:04I'm going to find
00:40:04whoever did this.
00:40:05I'll make them
00:40:06answer for it
00:40:07right now!
00:40:14It's fine.
00:40:15It's just a task.
00:40:18I can adore it.
00:40:20I won't stand
00:40:20for this.
00:40:21I'll find a way
00:40:22to get you away
00:40:22from this place
00:40:23as soon as possible.
00:40:28Tell me,
00:40:28what is the truth
00:40:29about that ring?
00:40:30Why do they insist
00:40:31it belongs to the Emperor?
00:40:33It was my father.
00:40:34He once killed
00:40:35a great bear
00:40:35with his bare hands.
00:40:37Augustus rewarded
00:40:37his courage
00:40:38by gifting him
00:40:39that ring.
00:40:39Oh, that explains it.
00:40:41They keep shouting
00:40:42about the Emperor
00:40:43and I feared
00:40:44you were keeping
00:40:44secrets from me.
00:40:47You there!
00:40:48Since when
00:40:49is the palace
00:40:50a place for idle gossip?
00:41:02It's official, Dora!
00:41:03Go, quickly!
00:41:05Don't let her see you
00:41:06or we'll be in trouble.
00:41:20Is the latrine finished?
00:41:22It is all finished,
00:41:23my lady.
00:41:24Then move on
00:41:25to the courtyard.
00:41:26I want it's fossiless.
00:41:27Not a single leaf
00:41:28must remain.
00:41:29Yes, my lady.
00:41:30Finally, it's done.
00:41:32My back is nearly breaking.
00:41:43What right do you have
00:41:45to throw my things?
00:41:46Yes, newcomers
00:41:47sleep in the stables.
00:41:48That is the palace way.
00:41:50Get moving!
00:41:52Better hurry
00:41:53before the dung piles up
00:41:55and you've nowhere
00:41:56to lie down.
00:41:57It is freezing tonight.
00:41:59How can you expect
00:42:01a person to sleep
00:42:02in the stables?
00:42:08I heard that horse
00:42:10Yenna can keep you warm.
00:42:13We aren't lying.
00:42:14These are the palace rules.
00:42:15You wouldn't dare refuse,
00:42:17would you?
00:42:21Why are you targeting me?
00:42:23What have I done?
00:42:25You're a thief.
00:42:27Official Dora was merciful.
00:42:29You're lucky you're going
00:42:29to the stables
00:42:30and not the dungeon.
00:42:33I am no thief.
00:42:35Stop your malicious lies.
00:42:37Not a thief?
00:42:39Next you'll say
00:42:40the emperor himself
00:42:41gave it to you.
00:42:43Look at yourself.
00:42:44You're not fit
00:42:45to touch his shadow.
00:42:55I just need my blanket.
00:42:56I cannot survive
00:42:57the night in the stables
00:42:58without it.
00:42:59Such bold words.
00:43:01This is the palace.
00:43:02Nothing here is yours.
00:43:03Don't think your protectors
00:43:04can save you from our ways.
00:43:06You're not going in.
00:43:07Out of my way.
00:43:22Julia, are you all right?
00:43:24Are you hurt?
00:43:25Stop!
00:43:26You dare raise a hand
00:43:27within these walls?
00:43:28Have you grown tired of living?
00:43:30Commander Damon?
00:43:32What are you doing here?
00:43:34Wait, then who is he?
00:43:39You have signed
00:43:40your death warrant.
00:43:41Have mercy,
00:43:42your majesty.
00:43:43Please spare us.
00:43:45It wasn't intentional.
00:43:46We never meant
00:43:47for her to get hurt.
00:43:52You...
00:43:52You are Augustus?
00:43:58Is it true?
00:44:00Are you truly
00:44:01the emperor?
00:44:13Don't reveal
00:44:13your real identity.
00:44:19Forgive me, my lady.
00:44:21I was just passing by
00:44:22when I saw this girl
00:44:23being mistreated.
00:44:24I acted without thinking
00:44:25to help her.
00:44:26I meant no disrespect.
00:44:27Thank the gods.
00:44:29He's just a guard.
00:44:30He nearly scared me to death.
00:44:31But Damon,
00:44:32you never leave
00:44:32the emperor's side.
00:44:33Why are you
00:44:34with this common guard?
00:44:39Damon.
00:44:41What is going on here?
00:44:43Who is this man?
00:44:49Oh, oh right.
00:44:50This young guard here
00:44:51happens to look
00:44:52a bit like his majesty.
00:44:53I came to the palace
00:44:54specifically to question
00:44:55his background,
00:44:56fearing someone might
00:44:56impersonate the emperor
00:44:57and cause trouble.
00:44:58You.
00:44:59You're a new guard.
00:45:00How can you be so
00:45:01ignorant of the rules?
00:45:02Don't you know the palace
00:45:03isn't a place to wander
00:45:04in and out of?
00:45:05Apologize at once.
00:45:11I wouldn't dare
00:45:12do it again.
00:45:14It is all my fault.
00:45:16This guard was only
00:45:17worried about me,
00:45:18which is why he rushed
00:45:18in so recklessly.
00:45:20If you know you are wrong,
00:45:21then leave at once.
00:45:22Get out of my sight.
00:45:38After such a serious incident,
00:45:40official Dora
00:45:40didn't punish her at all?
00:45:41Talk about favoritism.
00:45:42And that business
00:45:43with the emperor's ring,
00:45:44it was completely
00:45:45hushed up too.
00:45:46I have no idea
00:45:47who is backing her,
00:45:48but they must be
00:45:48incredibly powerful.
00:45:51Tell me,
00:45:52if the real Augustus
00:45:53found out someone
00:45:53stole his ring
00:45:54and dared to impersonate him,
00:45:55what would he do?
00:45:56Would he order
00:45:57an immediate execution?
00:46:00Julia is a good girl.
00:46:02She is hardworking,
00:46:04steady,
00:46:05and has a pure heart.
00:46:06Mother,
00:46:06does that mean
00:46:07Julia has passed your test?
00:46:09I'm going to tell her
00:46:10the truth right now.
00:46:11I will make her
00:46:11the empress of Rome
00:46:12and never let her
00:46:13suffer another moment
00:46:14of grievement.
00:46:14My approval
00:46:15does not mean
00:46:16the nobles of the senate
00:46:17will accept a commoner
00:46:18as their empress.
00:46:21Next month
00:46:22is Lupergaria.
00:46:23Why not let Julia
00:46:24oversee the festival sacrifices?
00:46:25If she handles
00:46:26the rituals perfectly,
00:46:27it will prove
00:46:27she is the divinely
00:46:28chosen empress.
00:46:29It will show
00:46:30those nobles
00:46:30that her abilities
00:46:31far surpassed
00:46:32those of their
00:46:32pampered daughters.
00:46:34Very well.
00:46:34Give this ring
00:46:35back to her.
00:46:36Consider it my promise.
00:46:42Julia!
00:46:43Great news!
00:46:45Martyr Senius
00:46:45has decided
00:46:46to put you in charge
00:46:47of next month's
00:46:47Luperlaris sacrifices.
00:46:49But I don't know
00:46:49the first thing about it.
00:46:51Luperlaris is so important
00:46:52I'm afraid I'll fail.
00:46:53Don't worry.
00:46:54I have full confidence
00:46:55in you.
00:46:56You are more than capable.
00:46:58Besides,
00:46:59I'll be helping you
00:47:00from the shadows.
00:47:02You won't have
00:47:03to do it alone.
00:47:08Oh,
00:47:08and these are
00:47:09palace pastries.
00:47:10I saved them
00:47:10specifically for you.
00:47:17It's delicious!
00:47:18I've never tasted
00:47:19anything so wonderful!
00:47:21If you like them,
00:47:22I'll bring them
00:47:22to you often.
00:47:23Often?
00:47:23That might not be wise.
00:47:25I heard there are guards
00:47:26patrolling nearby
00:47:27constantly.
00:47:28We shouldn't meet
00:47:28so openly.
00:47:29What if someone sees us?
00:47:30Trust me,
00:47:31they won't.
00:47:32Julia,
00:47:32once the Lupergalia
00:47:33festival is over,
00:47:34wait for me
00:47:34in this courtyard.
00:47:35I have something
00:47:36very important
00:47:36to tell you.
00:47:39Okay.
00:47:45It has been
00:47:46three full days
00:47:47and yet not a single
00:47:48summons from
00:47:49his majesty.
00:47:51Has he completely
00:47:52lost all regard
00:47:54for me?
00:47:55I heard
00:47:56his majesty
00:47:57has been frequently
00:47:58visiting the servants'
00:47:59quarters to see
00:48:00a girl in secret.
00:48:01What?
00:48:01I am his childhood
00:48:03sweetheart,
00:48:04the future
00:48:04empress of Rome.
00:48:05which slit
00:48:06dares to be so bold
00:48:07as to seduce
00:48:08the emperor
00:48:09right under my nose?
00:48:17My hand!
00:48:19You dare burn me!
00:48:21Forgive me,
00:48:22Lady Leora.
00:48:23It wasn't on purpose.
00:48:24I was just so nervous.
00:48:26Please,
00:48:26have mercy!
00:48:27Lady Leora
00:48:28is the treasurer's
00:48:29daughter,
00:48:29a high noble
00:48:30of the senate
00:48:31and our future
00:48:31empress.
00:48:32Eva has truly
00:48:33offended someone
00:48:34she can't afford
00:48:35to cross.
00:48:36Lupigaria is
00:48:36almost here.
00:48:38With my hand
00:48:39like this,
00:48:39how can I stand
00:48:40beside the emperor
00:48:41for the ritual?
00:48:42How can I be
00:48:43worthy of being
00:48:44empress?
00:48:45Guards!
00:48:46Take this wretch
00:48:46to the coliseum
00:48:47and feed her
00:48:48to the beast!
00:48:50Mercy!
00:48:50Lady Leora,
00:48:51please spare me!
00:48:52I'll never do it again!
00:48:53I can heal
00:48:53that burn for you.
00:49:02You?
00:49:03Who are you?
00:49:04My name is Julia.
00:49:05My father is a spice
00:49:06merchant,
00:49:07so I have been
00:49:07familiar with herbs
00:49:08since childhood.
00:49:09I know of a plant
00:49:11that can soothe burns.
00:49:12It is very effective.
00:49:14A merchant's daughter?
00:49:16My lady,
00:49:17why not try it?
00:49:18You have nothing to lose.
00:49:19If she fails to heal you,
00:49:20it won't be too late
00:49:21to punish her then.
00:49:22Hmm.
00:49:29I have one request.
00:49:32I knew it!
00:49:33Fine,
00:49:34how many gold coins
00:49:35do you want?
00:49:35I want no gold.
00:49:37I only ask
00:49:38that if I heal your hand,
00:49:39you spare Eva.
00:49:41Playing the Morton,
00:49:42are we?
00:49:43Fine, Julia,
00:49:44I agree.
00:49:45But mark my words,
00:49:46if you fail,
00:49:47your lives are forfeit,
00:49:48both of them.
00:49:52Huh.
00:49:53Truly doesn't hurt as much,
00:49:55and the swelling
00:49:56has gone down.
00:49:58Apply this juice
00:49:59to the wound
00:49:59every day
00:50:00for a few days.
00:50:01The burn will heal quickly
00:50:02without leaving a scar.
00:50:05I used to bully you
00:50:06constantly,
00:50:07yet today
00:50:07you saved my life.
00:50:10I am so sorry,
00:50:11Julia.
00:50:12Please,
00:50:13forgive me.
00:50:14The past is in the past.
00:50:17Let's not speak of it again.
00:50:19From now on,
00:50:21we shall be like sisters
00:50:22and look out
00:50:23for one each other.
00:50:27I don't.
00:50:30What?
00:50:31Julia is that lowly servant
00:50:33who's been seducing
00:50:34his majesty?
00:50:35I don't.
00:50:38I don't.
00:50:38I don't.
00:50:38I don't.
00:50:38I don't.
00:50:41My lady,
00:50:42please do not be angry.
00:50:43If his majesty
00:50:43truly loved her,
00:50:44why would he leave her
00:50:45as a mere maid?
00:50:46She is no threat
00:50:46to your position.
00:50:47True.
00:50:48His majesty
00:50:49is likely just bored
00:50:50and finds her a novelty.
00:50:53Perhaps I judged her
00:50:54too harshly.
00:50:55My lady,
00:50:56that Julia
00:50:57is nothing but a slut
00:50:59who seduces
00:50:59every man she sees.
00:51:01She is pure evil.
00:51:05I am a maid
00:51:06in the domestic office
00:51:07with Julia
00:51:08and I know her
00:51:08better than anyone.
00:51:09Not only is she lazy,
00:51:10but she constantly
00:51:11flirts with the guards.
00:51:12Worse,
00:51:13she is a thief.
00:51:14She stole the emperor's
00:51:15own ring.
00:51:17The emperor's ring?
00:51:19You mean the wooden one?
00:51:20The one he's worn
00:51:21since childhood?
00:51:22The one meant
00:51:22for the future empress?
00:51:24Such an audacious wretch!
00:51:25Her intentions
00:51:26are treasonous!
00:51:27I will never let her
00:51:28get away with this!
00:51:29My lady,
00:51:30I heard that slut
00:51:31is in charge of
00:51:32organizing the Luperia sacrifices.
00:51:34I have a plan.
00:51:36Do you want
00:51:37to have her
00:51:37minor jorily?
00:51:39Good.
00:51:40We'll do it.
00:51:42Julia,
00:51:44Lupergarious
00:51:44will be the day
00:51:45you die!
00:52:00Be careful.
00:52:01Whatever you do,
00:52:02don't drop it.
00:52:04Julia,
00:52:04you've done
00:52:05a magnificent job!
00:52:06The nobles are all
00:52:06praising how well
00:52:07the sacrifice was organized.
00:52:08Even Matarsenius
00:52:09looked pleased
00:52:10and couldn't stop
00:52:10complimenting you!
00:52:11That is a relief.
00:52:12I'm glad I didn't fail
00:52:13the trust Matarsenius
00:52:14placed in me.
00:52:15I heard your little guard
00:52:17is waiting for you
00:52:18in the backyard.
00:52:18He says he has
00:52:19something important
00:52:20to tell you.
00:52:21Go on.
00:52:23Assassin!
00:52:24Catch the Lupercalia
00:52:25assassin!
00:52:26Block all exits.
00:52:27No one is allowed
00:52:27to leave.
00:52:28What?
00:52:28What's happening?
00:52:30How could there be
00:52:31an assassin
00:52:31at the sacrifice?
00:52:32Assassin disguised
00:52:33as a guard
00:52:34just tried to stab
00:52:35Lady Leora,
00:52:36the treasurer's daughter.
00:52:38Lady Leora
00:52:39is the daughter
00:52:39of the treasurer
00:52:40and the companion
00:52:41of His Majesty's youth.
00:52:42She is our
00:52:43desestined empress.
00:52:45This is an act
00:52:46of high treason
00:52:47that must be investigated
00:52:48to the fullest extent.
00:52:49What are you doing?
00:52:52I am innocent!
00:52:54I truly did
00:52:55nothing wrong!
00:52:56I didn't conspire
00:52:58with any assassin!
00:52:59You cannot do this
00:53:00to me!
00:53:03Lady Leora,
00:53:05Julia has been
00:53:05brought before you.
00:53:11Lady Leora,
00:53:12I truly know
00:53:13nothing of this.
00:53:14You were the one
00:53:15in charge of
00:53:16organizing the sacrifice.
00:53:17An assassin slipped in
00:53:19under your watch.
00:53:19Do you really dare
00:53:20to say you knew nothing?
00:53:24How dare you arrange
00:53:26an assassination
00:53:26at the Luperalia festival!
00:53:28What is your motive?
00:53:29Have you been jealous
00:53:30of my position
00:53:31as future empress
00:53:32and decided to get rid
00:53:33of me?
00:53:34I...
00:53:34I truly didn't.
00:53:35Lady Leora,
00:53:36I was responsible
00:53:37for the event
00:53:38but I swear
00:53:38I know nothing
00:53:39about an assassin.
00:53:40You refuse to confess?
00:53:42Don't be a fool,
00:53:43Julia.
00:53:44The whip will
00:53:45wring the truth
00:53:46out of you soon enough.
00:53:47Weren't you given
00:53:48full responsibility
00:53:49for the Lupastia sacrifice?
00:53:51An assassin
00:53:52infiltrated a heavily
00:53:53guarded site
00:53:54and you claim
00:53:55ignorance?
00:53:56That is gross
00:53:56negligence
00:53:57and negligence
00:53:58is a capital offense.
00:54:00Indeed.
00:54:01The palace
00:54:02is guarded
00:54:02day and night.
00:54:04No ordinary person
00:54:05could simply walk in
00:54:06unless Julia
00:54:06conspired with the assassin
00:54:08and let him in.
00:54:09There is no
00:54:10other explanation.
00:54:12I truly know
00:54:12nothing of the assassin.
00:54:14Please,
00:54:14Lady Leora,
00:54:15give me some time.
00:54:16I will find the truth
00:54:17and prove my innocence.
00:54:18Give you time?
00:54:20You merely seek
00:54:20to crawl to his majesty
00:54:21and hide behind his favor.
00:54:23Do not think
00:54:24your transparent schemes
00:54:25escape my notice.
00:54:26His majesty?
00:54:28Still acting?
00:54:29You think I don't know?
00:54:30You are the slut
00:54:31who has been seducing
00:54:32the emperor
00:54:32with a face like that.
00:54:34No wonder
00:54:34you're so restless.
00:54:36Even if his majesty
00:54:37chose a commoner,
00:54:38it wouldn't be
00:54:38a lowly rat like you!
00:54:42I have never
00:54:43seduced the emperor.
00:54:44I've never even
00:54:45seen his face.
00:54:46How could I seduce him?
00:54:47Have you forgotten
00:54:48that I healed your burn
00:54:49just two days ago?
00:54:50How can you repay
00:54:52my mindness
00:54:52with such outrageous
00:54:53accusations?
00:54:54You dare question me?
00:54:56You arrogant wretch!
00:54:58God, seize this
00:54:59unrepentant slut!
00:55:00Look closely, Julia!
00:55:02You are standing
00:55:03before the daughter
00:55:03of the treasurer,
00:55:04the woman chosen
00:55:05by Martyr Senius
00:55:06to be emperor.
00:55:07To talk back now
00:55:08is pure suicide!
00:55:10If you are
00:55:10the treasurer's daughter
00:55:11and the future empress,
00:55:12you should be
00:55:12reasonable and just.
00:55:13I have never
00:55:15even seen the emperor.
00:55:16How could I
00:55:16seduce him?
00:55:18Besides,
00:55:19I am already married.
00:55:20I would never
00:55:20seek another.
00:55:24You are married?
00:55:25Who is your husband?
00:55:28His...
00:55:28His majesty?
00:55:35My lady,
00:55:36don't let her fool you!
00:55:37This ring
00:55:38was stolen
00:55:38by her husband.
00:55:39Her husband
00:55:40is just a minor
00:55:41guard in the palace.
00:55:42I saw it myself.
00:55:43They steal at night
00:55:44and flirt openly
00:55:45during the day.
00:55:46It is an absolute outrage!
00:55:48My husband
00:55:49is indeed a guard,
00:55:50but we have never
00:55:51been inappropriate
00:55:52in public,
00:55:53and we are certainly
00:55:54not seen.
00:55:55As if anyone
00:55:55would believe you!
00:55:56Lady Leora,
00:55:57I bet the assassin
00:55:58who attacked you
00:55:59was none other
00:55:59than her guard husband!
00:56:00This rash on my face
00:56:02has lasted for days.
00:56:03The court physicians
00:56:04have prescribed
00:56:05so many ointments,
00:56:06but none of them
00:56:06seem to work.
00:56:07Matter Sinatus,
00:56:08I heard that Julia
00:56:09healed Lady Leora's
00:56:11burn with just a
00:56:11handful of herbs
00:56:12last month.
00:56:13Perhaps we should
00:56:14let Julia examine you.
00:56:16I didn't realize
00:56:17Julia was so skilled.
00:56:18Go and summon her.
00:56:20Once this rash
00:56:21is gone,
00:56:21it will be time
00:56:22for his majesty
00:56:22to name her empress.
00:56:24Mater Senaris!
00:56:26Terrible news!
00:56:27Lady Leora
00:56:28has arrested Julia
00:56:29and is about
00:56:29to have her tortured.
00:56:32This is madness.
00:56:33Quick,
00:56:33come with me.
00:56:35you refuse
00:56:36to find the truth,
00:56:37choosing instead
00:56:38to frame the innocent
00:56:40and abuse your power.
00:56:41It is your actions
00:56:43that offend the gods
00:56:44and you will surely
00:56:45be punished.
00:56:47Guards!
00:56:47Fetch the whip!
00:56:48I will have a confession
00:56:49from her today.
00:56:50Palace law dictates
00:56:51that no noble
00:56:52has the right
00:56:53to use private torture
00:56:54except for Mater Senus
00:56:55and the emperor.
00:56:58My lady,
00:56:59I shall go to Mater Senus
00:57:01now and get an order
00:57:02to have both her
00:57:03and her guard husband
00:57:04arrested and executed
00:57:05as a warning to others.
00:57:10And who exactly
00:57:11is it you want me
00:57:12to execute?
00:57:18Release her!
00:57:24You show no respect
00:57:25for palace law
00:57:26and use illegal torture.
00:57:28Who gave you permission
00:57:29to cause such chaos
00:57:30during the Lupefaria's sacrifice?
00:57:32I am the emperor's
00:57:33chosen companion,
00:57:34the future empress
00:57:35of Rome.
00:57:36To discipline a lowly servant
00:57:38is my prerogative.
00:57:39I will soon rule
00:57:40these halls.
00:57:41Who are you
00:57:41to stand in my path
00:57:42and preach to me?
00:57:44Insolence!
00:57:44Do you truly have no idea
00:57:46to whom you are speaking?
00:57:47You're just some
00:57:48low-born old official.
00:57:49If I don't teach you
00:57:50a lesson,
00:57:50you'll never learn your place.
00:57:52Guards!
00:57:52Seize her as well!
00:57:53I never imagined
00:57:54you would be so
00:57:54venerful and disrespectful
00:57:56of rank.
00:57:56I was blind to let
00:57:58someone like you
00:57:58near his majesty!
00:58:00Ha!
00:58:00You think your mate
00:58:01is Senenus?
00:58:02You're just an old woman
00:58:03too ashamed
00:58:04to show her face.
00:58:05You must have
00:58:06a death wish.
00:58:09Let's see who dares.
00:58:12Guards!
00:58:13Bring me my whip!
00:58:14I'm going to teach
00:58:15this arrogant old crone
00:58:16a lesson she'll never forget.
00:58:18Lady Leora,
00:58:19you cannot.
00:58:19Palace law forbids
00:58:20the private whipping
00:58:21of court officials.
00:58:22If His Majesty
00:58:23or Martyr Senenus
00:58:23finds out,
00:58:24they will be furious.
00:58:25Please,
00:58:25have mercy.
00:58:26Get away from me,
00:58:27you slut!
00:58:44Why isn't Julia
00:58:45here yet?
00:58:46The sacrifice
00:58:47ended quite a while ago.
00:58:50Could something have
00:58:51happened?
00:58:52Your Majesty,
00:58:53it is a disaster.
00:58:54Lady Leora has
00:58:54arrested Julia
00:58:55and is attempting
00:58:56to torture your mother,
00:58:57Matasenius.
00:58:59Damn it!
00:59:00Leora is cruel
00:59:01and arrogant.
00:59:02Something has gone wrong!
00:59:14Leora,
00:59:15you dare commit
00:59:16such violence
00:59:16and harm
00:59:17palace staff
00:59:18at a sacred site?
00:59:19Have you no fear
00:59:20of the gods' wrath?
00:59:23Lady Leora,
00:59:24it was I
00:59:25who offended you.
00:59:25It is all my fault.
00:59:26Please,
00:59:27do not involve
00:59:28official Dora.
00:59:31You certainly love
00:59:32playing the martyr.
00:59:33Since you are so eager
00:59:34to take this old
00:59:34crone's punishment,
00:59:35I will grant your wish.
00:59:36I'll make sure
00:59:37you learn the price
00:59:37of disobedience
00:59:38so you never meddle again.
00:59:39Enough, Leora.
00:59:40In the name of Matasenius,
00:59:42I warn you
00:59:42for the last time,
00:59:43do not push this too far.
00:59:45The Emperor
00:59:45will never forgive you
00:59:46for this.
00:59:46You're just a lowly
00:59:47old servant
00:59:48too afraid
00:59:48to show your face,
00:59:49yet you dare claim
00:59:50to be Marta Senuus?
00:59:51Today,
00:59:52I shall punish you
00:59:53on behalf of the Emperor.
00:59:54The assassin
00:59:55has been apprehended.
00:59:56He waits your judgment
00:59:57at the threshold.
00:59:58Bring him in at once.
01:00:00Let everyone see
01:00:01the ironclack proof
01:00:02that this slut
01:00:03conspired with an assassin.
01:00:12Julia conspired with this guard
01:00:14to breach palace security
01:00:15and arrange an assassination
01:00:17against me.
01:00:18Guards,
01:00:19execute them both
01:00:20immediately as an example.
01:00:26I would like to see
01:00:28who dares.
01:00:29Your Majesty,
01:00:31how could it be you?
01:00:36Mother.
01:00:39His Majesty,
01:00:40Augustus,
01:00:41Matasenorius.
01:00:49How is this possible?
01:00:51How could she be
01:00:52Matasenorius?
01:00:53Leora,
01:00:54I believe that
01:00:55as a daughter of nobility,
01:00:57you would be wise and kind.
01:00:59I never expected
01:01:00such heartless cruelty.
01:01:02You insult your superiors
01:01:03and abuse the law.
01:01:05You dream of being empress?
01:01:07Never.
01:01:11No.
01:01:13Please.
01:01:14Matasenorius,
01:01:15I know I was wrong.
01:01:16Please.
01:01:17Forgive me.
01:01:19Your Majesty,
01:01:20we grew up together.
01:01:21Please, please,
01:01:22do not abandon me.
01:01:24You attempted to use
01:01:25illegal torching
01:01:26without even knowing
01:01:27the truth.
01:01:28If I hadn't arrived in time,
01:01:30you would have committed
01:01:30a terrible crime.
01:01:32This is your own doing.
01:01:33Your Majesty,
01:01:34I didn't mean it.
01:01:35It was all Kaya.
01:01:38It was Kaya
01:01:40who gave me these ideas.
01:01:42Kaya,
01:01:43for spreading malicious rumors
01:01:44and violating palace law,
01:01:46you are sent to the Coliseum
01:01:47as a slave.
01:01:49Matasenorius,
01:01:49I was wrong.
01:01:50Please,
01:01:51spare me this one.
01:01:54Your Majesty,
01:01:55I may have been wrong,
01:01:57but Julia was the organizer
01:01:58of the Lupagania sacrifice.
01:02:00She must be held responsible
01:02:01for the assassination attempt.
01:02:05If Your Majesty
01:02:06hadn't been here today,
01:02:07Lady Liorta
01:02:08would have been
01:02:08in terrible danger.
01:02:10Your Majesty,
01:02:11my life is of no consequence,
01:02:13but the safety of the palace
01:02:14is paramount.
01:02:15Julia must be punished.
01:02:18If assassins can enter
01:02:19the palace like this,
01:02:20who will protect us
01:02:21in the future?
01:02:22I beg you,
01:02:23punish Julia.
01:02:31If there is evidence
01:02:32that Julia is innocent,
01:02:34what should be the fate
01:02:35of those who framed her?
01:02:36Liora,
01:02:37I am asking you,
01:02:38if Julia is proven innocent,
01:02:40what should be your punishment?
01:02:41I am willing to be demoted
01:02:42to a slave
01:02:43and never set foot
01:02:44in the palace again.
01:02:45Fine.
01:02:46It is settled.
01:02:47Guards,
01:02:48bring him in.
01:02:55Your Majesty's foresight
01:02:56was undearing.
01:02:57As commanded,
01:02:58I stationed sentries
01:02:59at every exit.
01:03:00We captured the assassin
01:03:01as he fled
01:03:02and have secured
01:03:03his confession.
01:03:04Mercy,
01:03:05Your Majesty,
01:03:05it was Lady Liora's father,
01:03:07the treasurer,
01:03:08who forced me.
01:03:09He made me disguise myself
01:03:11as a guard
01:03:11and attack Lady Liora
01:03:12to frame Julia.
01:03:13He wanted to get rid of Julia
01:03:15so Liora could become Empress.
01:03:16I had no choice.
01:03:18Please!
01:03:18Bear me!
01:03:22It's over.
01:03:24Everything is ruined.
01:03:27Do you know why
01:03:28I believe in Julia?
01:03:30Because she is my wife,
01:03:31the true empress
01:03:33of the Roman Empire.
01:03:38Cast Liora out of the palace.
01:03:40She is barred
01:03:41from entering forever.
01:03:42Furthermore,
01:03:43arrest the treasurer
01:03:44and throw him into the dungeon
01:03:46to await his sentence.
01:03:52I hate you!
01:03:53If it weren't for you,
01:03:54all of this would be mine.
01:03:55The throne would be mine
01:03:56and the emperor would be mine.
01:03:57You ruined everything!
01:03:58You are wrong.
01:03:59The person who brought you
01:04:00to this end
01:04:01was never me,
01:04:02it was you.
01:04:03Your own greed,
01:04:04jealousy and cruelty
01:04:05led you here.
01:04:05You have only yourself
01:04:06to blame.
01:04:11I am sorry for all the suffering
01:04:13you've endured.
01:04:14It doesn't matter now,
01:04:16your majesty.
01:04:17Do not call me your majesty.
01:04:18Call me Marcus.
01:04:20Only you may call me that.
01:04:21Marcus,
01:04:22now that the guilty
01:04:23have been punished,
01:04:24all misunderstandings
01:04:25are resolved.
01:04:30From this day forth,
01:04:31I declare before the gods,
01:04:33Julia is the eternal
01:04:34and only empress
01:04:35of the Roman Empire.
01:04:36of the Roman Empire.
