The Tribunal of Gods: My Patron Stuns Zeus
Transcript
00:07Theon! Mortal!
00:09You rabid, sixteen temples of the sun, three thousand ordained priests, sacrilege beyond redemption.
00:18What do you have to say for yourself?
00:22Say what?
00:24Stubborn to the end.
00:26Pythias! High Priestess of Apollo! I authorize you! Make him talk!
00:37Is that it?
00:38The god it's pet can't even swing a whip without running out of breath.
00:44Now that's a spot.
00:46Haven't seen balls like that on this mountain since Prometheus swiped the fire.
00:49Oh, look who trolled out. The mighty conqueror of the twelve labors himself.
00:54Zeus calls, you ghost him every time, but one mortal's about to get his head locked off, and suddenly here
00:59you are like a stray dog that caught the scent of blood?
01:01I bled for my godhead, twelve trials, twelve kills! Not like some pretty boy who got invisible cause mommy dunked
01:08him in a river!
01:09I'm here to watch a man die!
01:13Problem?
01:14Whatever helps you sleep at night, big guy.
01:17Enough! Cut off his limbs, drain him of every last drop of Demgard blood, and throw what's left into the
01:25abyss!
01:27You old bastard chaos.
01:30I crawled through the pits of hell just to reach you, thought maybe, just maybe, I'd finally have enough to
01:38spit in the face of fate.
01:39Fought my way through all of it, and it still wasn't enough.
01:44A whole mountain of false gods and here I am in chains.
01:48That spark you gave me, looks like it dies today.
01:51Wretched little mud-borne creature, the gods put bread in your mouths, and this is how you repay them?
01:57By sinking your teeth into the hand that feeds you?
02:10Your blade split Apollo's golden idol in half.
02:13Sixteen holy temples.
02:16Ash.
02:17Thousands of his anointed priests choking on their own blood.
02:21Your soul belongs in the Magna.
02:23Let it burn for all eternity.
02:26Three thousand leeches who fatten on the blood of the poor.
02:30I put them down, and I do it again.
02:44Silence, wretch.
02:45You torched holy ground, butchered priests by the hundreds, and you still have the gall to run your mouth on
02:50this tribunal.
02:50Who gave you the right to judge me, Poseidon?
02:53When the plague tore through Athens and ten thousand people rotted in the streets, where was your precious light then?
02:59People were dying in the gutters.
03:01Couldn't even get a handful of herbs.
03:04And what did your temple of light do?
03:06Sent down an oracle demanding the poor hand over their last shrepp of food.
03:12Kimmeras were snatching children from their beds, and you didn't lift a finger.
03:18Then you had the nerve to call it, what was it?
03:21Oh right, a trial ordained by Apollo.
03:29Your so-called divine authority feeds on the living drinks from the dying.
03:33Every last one I find, I'll rip apart with my bare hands.
03:37The covenant is supposed to be a fair trade.
03:40Take the mortal's grain, then let them feed the beasts.
03:43The deli's been double-dipped, and frankly, it's getting a bit ugly.
03:47The kid's right!
03:49If it were me, I'd have tossed those white-robed cowards into my forge and hammered them into scrap metal.
03:55One by goddamn one!
03:56Sit down.
03:57This is a tribunal, not your forge.
04:03What are you to question the gods?
04:06If the Lord of Light demands an entire city burn with him, that is the honor those insects should be
04:12grateful for.
04:13Your worthless bones pay the road into his throne.
04:16That is fate's gift to you!
04:18Privilege?
04:19My only regret is I wasn't fast enough.
04:22Should have burned Apollo's 8 and you with it, you deranged old hag.
04:25Heretic!
04:27Lord Poseidon, this creature's soul is rotted beyond salvation.
04:31As High Priestess of the Temple of Light, I invoke the Well of Truth, the mirror that reflects all cause
04:37and consequences.
04:39Let it end this farce once and for all!
04:44Truth?
04:45The Well of Truth?
04:48High Priestess, strip him of his demigod power.
04:51Banish him to the wastelands of Hades.
04:53That sentence is more than enough to pay for the Temple's losses.
04:58There's no need to invoke the Well.
05:00Lord Postein!
05:01He drowned Apollo's sacred flame in his own filthy blood!
05:05He fed the profited oracles to the vultures!
05:07And now he stands before the gods and spits on the glory of the sun!
05:11Mere exile!
05:12How does that cleanse sacrilege of this magnitude?
05:15Once the Well of Truth opens, it rips a soul's fate threads wide open by force.
05:21Unleashing a judgment of the Twelve upon a mere demigod, it's out of proportion.
05:27It breaks protocol.
05:29Protocol?
05:30Then explain this.
05:32How does a nobody from the Slim survive ten years fighting in the deepest pit of Tartus?
05:37How does a mortal ascend to demigod?
05:40Something is hiding behind him.
05:42Something heretical.
05:44What the hell is this hag getting at?
05:47Don't play Hero.
05:49She wants the Well to expose whoever trained him, whoever's been protecting him,
05:53and nail them to this tribunal right next to him.
05:56Make no mistake.
05:58This is Apollo moving the pieces.
06:02Oh, this is rich.
06:04Can't crush one little mortal, so now they want to dig up whoever taught him and put them on trial
06:10too?
06:10Real classy move, Temple of Light.
06:13Lord Poseidon, the Temple of Light won't back down.
06:18Deny them this, and Apollo's fury will be difficult to contain.
06:22Perhaps it's wiser to let them see it through.
06:29The High Priestess insists.
06:31So be it.
06:33Granted.
06:34Well of Truth, descend!
06:40Bring it on!
06:41I stared down the monsters in the abyss.
06:43You think I'm scared of your little splash?
06:45Pour it all out.
06:46Let's see who really swirls when the truth hits the mirror!
06:52Absolute madman.
06:53That's what I wild wolf who doesn't know the rules and doesn't give a damn.
06:57Just goes for the throat and never lets go!
07:00Crazy.
07:01This kid's got nothing on you.
07:03Remember when you shot an arrow at the sun god's chariot just across a damn sea?
07:07And then you beat Death himself into the dirt with your bare fists.
07:12Wrestled Alclectius' soul right out of his hands.
07:17Piss off!
07:18Stop bringing up my old crap.
07:22Back up, back up.
07:24That lunatic is fiercely protective.
07:26He wants to hide up Thanius and beat the living daylights out of him.
07:29Tell me about it.
07:30Not even Zeus can keep him on a sleash.
07:35Hercules!
07:35Stow your tavern-browl theastrix!
07:38This is the sacred tribunal!
07:41One more word out of you, you old shrick.
07:43And I'll rip what's left of your precious temple apart with my bare hands!
07:47Right now!
07:48All of you, shut up!
07:52Listen well, Theron.
07:54If the mirror proves your hands are clean, I'll grant you a quick death.
07:57But if that water shows you've been hiding behind justice for mortals while serving your own ends...
08:04I will drive this trident through your chest myself.
08:07And what's left of your soul I'll carve into pieces and feed to Cerberus.
08:13Let the gods witness!
08:15Which wretched suicidal hair attack dared raise a creature who desiccates the light?
08:28Theron!
08:29Keep that Belos going!
08:31If I'm not back by nightfall, you head north.
08:34Beg, Grohl, do whatever it takes.
08:36Just stay alive!
08:37Don't go!
08:38It's the Hydra in those swamps!
08:40It's blood through stone!
08:41That Demophode picked his own fight!
08:44Why should you die for it?
08:49Let go of me!
08:51Hercules went out there to protect us!
08:53He's pinned down by the venom now!
08:56No fire, no way out!
08:58He's dead for sure!
09:05Hercules!
09:06I brought the fire!
09:08I brought the fire!
09:10I'm mortal!
09:11Get out of here!
09:12The air is pure venom!
09:14You'll be dead before you reach me!
09:16Catch it!
09:17Burn the stumps!

25:14a
25:15a
25:15a

26:06scrap of bread
26:08a common blacksmith dying for the gods that's more glory than scub like him ever deserved
26:18now write
26:30glory he didn't deserve that's the doctrine of your precious temple of light
26:38this is merely the necessary trial to purge mortal weakness he refused to be civilized
26:54you're worse than the demons in tados
26:59riveting stuff high priestess the mirror's not done yet care to wager what other heartwarming mercies
27:06are coming next priestess pythera the code of olympius is clear unprovoked abuse of a minor
27:13under temple sanctuary is a capital offense perseus watch your tongue abuse this was an internal
27:21ruling of the temple
27:24want the broth then say it loud admit that your village was cursed because your parents were
27:30greedy tried to hoard her offerings meant for the gods admit that your grandfather was gnawed
27:37by wild dogs because he was arrogant enough to think a mortal's iron could beat fate
27:42lies my grandfather was a hero
27:48a hero a stinking blacksmith take your tainted bloodline and go lap up the mud where you belong
28:08unforgivable that old blacksmith took poison for the gods and you wouldn't even give him a burial
28:15mat apollo show yourself now scarring broth poured over a child's head
28:25is this your idea of glorious divine scripture
28:33my arrows have pierced every manner of beast
28:36but i've never seen anything more vile than the creatures in your temple
28:58my fellow gods mortals are born in sin without the crucible of suffering
29:04how can they be worthy to gaze upon the light this is education
29:17education that old man saved my life and you you sanctonious animals enough both of you
29:28are apollo the web of lies your servants wove in the mortal world you'd better start explaining
29:35zeus calm yourself strictly treaking apollo was mere enforcing the iron law that fate cannot be
29:41reversed using scalding broth to demonstrate divine authority that is the absolute power olympus granted
29:47them
29:50so the iron law of the temple of light comes down to hiding behind temple walls and tormenting a child
29:56someone should drag these noble priests to the front lines
30:00see how much of troy their precious broth can sculpt
30:03silence
30:04the well of truth hasn't finished its trace
30:07keep watching
30:13still bitter about your pathetic bloodline the more eyes cursed you and your kind the day you were born
30:20before sundown fill the olive kiln on the back hill to the brim
30:24miss a single log and i'll skin you alive and leave you for the wolves
30:29um
30:44hello
30:45hello
30:46hello
30:46hello
30:52hello
30:58You haven't even lost your baby teeth, kid.
31:01Trying to outdo Hercules and his twelve labors all by yourself?
31:05You don't to you.
31:08I don't need anyone's pity!
31:10Ha ha ha ha ha!
31:18One day, I'm going to burn the Temple of Light to the ground!
31:24Rage alone won't even ruffle Apollo's cloak.
31:26If you truly want to make a god bleed, find the centaur Kidron on Mount Pelion.
31:32He'll point you toward the Echo Rift, at the edge of the world where Tartarus whispers back.
31:46That kid when he slows, he actually jumped into the Echo Rift of Tartarus.
31:50Is he the one, the last disciple of Chaos ever took?
31:57My Sun Chariot patrols every inch of the Earth.
32:01There's no rift beyond my sight.
32:03The deepest floor of Tartarus devours even a god's divine sense.
32:08A mere mortal jumping in should have been reduced to as ash!
32:11The Echo Rift.
32:12A domain the Mori's beam has never touched.
32:15It exists beyond the jurisdiction of Olympus entirely.
32:19An absolute void.
32:21Quiet!
32:22Beyond the dominion of sky and sea, there lies a chaos more ancient than any of us.
32:28The well of truth does not lie.
32:30Keep watching, and see what this munal dragged out of the abyss.
32:34The Kastirian Spring.
32:37Corrupted?
32:37What force on this Earth dares blind the gaze of the Sun God?
32:42This isn't a veil, Apollo.
32:44The well draws its power from the Mori, and their reach cannot penetrate the sport.
32:49A corner where even fate cannot weave.
32:51What lies buried there is an atrocity so ancient that even Zeus refuses to speak its name.
32:58The things that were cracking to Mother Gaia's belly before the War of Titans?
33:03The primordial horrors?
33:07A mortal insect.
33:10Three winters have shredded your skin and bone, yet failed to freeze your arrogance.
33:18The abyss does not harbor vermin.
33:21Take this, a drop of crystallized titan blood, enough to make your husk hard as bronze.
33:29Go play tyrant in the mortal world for a few centuries.
33:33Bask in their growling, and stop disturbing my sleep.
33:36I crawled here over a mountain of corpses, not to become another one of your divine puppets.
33:42I want the forbidden knowledge.
33:44I want the kind of power that can drag the thrones of Olympus straight into the pit.
33:50Ten years.
33:51The toxic breath of the abyss should have ground your bones to dust.
33:55And instead, it forged you into a vessel for chaos.
34:00The blade that truly pierces a god's throne is forged from mortal despair and mortal curses.
34:07The mortal called Theron is dead.
34:10Now take this cursed shell of yours, crawl back into the abyss, and sharpen your fangs.
34:21As you wish, master.
34:26And when I climb back out, I'm taking the sun god's head with me.
34:36The well of truth can't even identify that black fog?
34:40Nothing in existence should be able to hide from the mirror!
34:44My light was obliterated in that domain.
34:46The shadow in the mirror doesn't even exist within the laws of this world.
34:50It was born before light and order themselves.
34:53The primordial chaos.
34:55Naturally, the mirror cannot reflect what predates reflection itself.
34:59Chaos?
35:00The origin of all things?
35:01This mere mortal knocked on the door of the primordial void itself?
35:08Ha ha ha ha!
35:09What a beast!
35:10A mortal body!
35:11And he clawed his way into the school of chaos itself!
35:14So tell me, Apollo, do you finally realize what kind of monster you created?
35:18Shut your mouth!
35:19A herrick tainted by the forbidden chaos!
35:21Olympus cannot allow him to breathe!
35:33Put away your fire, Apollo.
35:35He's not some mortal you can torch on a whim anymore.
35:39Inside that body flows blood older than Olympus itself, the blood of the primordial.
35:45Lord Poseidon is right.
35:46The moray cannot interfere with the shadow primordial chaos left behind.
35:51My lords, we may have stumbled upon a tumor we cannot cut out.
35:59The Temple of Light will never tolerate defiling of authority!
36:04Cast him down to the deepest pit of Tartarus immediately!
36:11Olympus is stiff of that old thing in the void.
36:13Fine, I get it.
36:14But you're a disciple of chaos too, so why are you sitting there like a log?
36:19You actually bear the signal, my dear.
36:22But Heracles, this mortal shell of mine, can't hold the chaos flame much longer.
36:26Swallow your despair and choke on it!
36:29You and I are of the same bloodline, chaos' own.
36:31I will not let you die on these hypocrites' stage!
36:34If Apollo drops the blade today, I'll flip this entire mountain before I let it fall!
36:41Deal.
36:42Enough!
36:43The well of truth ends here!
36:45End of� pain
36:51Explosion
36:52How did you try?
