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
00:01:17I sought a name that would outlive me and nearly cast the kingdom's border into ruin your majesty. Just save
00:01:23your strength
00:01:24You need to stay alive
00:01:27My time's over
00:01:29Moses is too young too reckless. He can't carry this kingdom alone your majesty
00:01:34Then hear my final command guide him protect him. Don'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 God's power isn't endless, but for Moses
00:02:06For Cade, I'll give everything I have
00:02:09good
00:02:11good
00:02:13Father
00:02:15Father
00:02:17Long live the king
00:02:21Rise
00:02:23Moses ascended the throne smoothly while Hera took charge of the royal court as regent under her rule
00:02:29The kingdom of 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. I'll marry you with the grandest ceremony this kingdom has ever seen
00:03:12My king, I won't fail you
00:03:19Poor humans you dare stand in the way of the old empire today every last one of you die
00:03:32The scepter of light you're carrying the relic
00:03:39Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Hahahaha!
00:03:41Ha! Ha! Ha! So your godly power has limits after all
00:03:44Charge! Kill this bitch! Kill humanity's last godsworn!
00:03:48God sworn, crush the woman guarded court into utter despair!
00:03:54Fall back!
00:04:05In the God's name, Godfall Ashgrave!
00:04:12You witch rust woman! We'll return! And when we do, how will you alone stand against my million-strong tide
00:04:21of beasts?
00:04:32Commander! Dear God! You're gravely wounded!
00:04:35I'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! Do you know your crime?
00:05:20Your 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.
00:06:11I 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?
00:06:31You dare defy the king?
00:06:34Neil!
00:06:37Your Majesty, please reconsider her. Hera slid blood for this kingdom!
00:06:42You 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.
00:07:09In this life, I'll only ever love you.
00:07:12As long as I can stay by your side, I'd give up everything.
00:07:15I'll follow you, protect you, love you forever.
00:07:19Without you, this crown means nothing to me.
00:07:21You're my only light.
00:07:23My only love.
00:07:24Let me place this on you.
00:07:27Yes, my king.
00:07:29Yes, my king.
00:07:29I'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.
00:08:07Commander.
00:08:08We fought through hell to save this kingdom, and this is how they repay you.
00:08:13Those snakes stole your power.
00:08:18Power is just dust.
00:08:20It never mattered to me.
00:08:22Commander.
00:08:23The king's betrayed everyone.
00:08:25You gave everything to Cade, and this is what you got in return?
00:08:28To hell with that king!
00:08:30Commander, let's rebel!
00:08:31Lead us back into the palace and take back what's yours!
00:08:36Enough!
00:08:38Commander.
00:08:39We don't care about power or glory.
00:08:42We just want to protect Cade.
00:08:43To protect the people under under god's blessing.
00:08:46Commander!
00:08:47The king's blind!
00:08:48And 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 Cade 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!
00:09:14Commander!
00:09:15The 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 Cade, 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.
00:09:57I wouldn't dare decide for him.
00:09:59The late king swore this oath before the gods.
00:10:01It 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 Cade.
00:10:10This kingdom owes you.
00:10:11Only with you beside Moses can Cade 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.
00:10:22I'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 will blame you!
00:10:52Hera!
00:10:53You dared to hit Irene!
00:10:54I swear by the gods.
00:10:56I never touched her.
00:10:58I 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.
00:11:06Don'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!
00:11:16I 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!
00:12:01You'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.
00:12:09And 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.
00:12:22Cain!
00:12:24You dare defy me too?
00:12:25You 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.
00:12:34How can you treat her this way?
00:12:35And I saw everything clearly.
00:12:36It was Reen.
00:12:37She hit herself to frame the commander.
00:12:41You've been blinded by the devil.
00:12:42Guards!
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.
00:13:14As you command.
00:13:17One hundred chances.
00:13:19And now, the very last one is gone too.
00:13:28Guards, take Eurene 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?
00:14:26Don'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.
00:14:38Besides, 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.
00:14:43You're grown now.
00:14:45Just remember, control your decisions anymore.
00:14:49Don't destroy what you and Hera once had.
00:14:51That 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.
00:15:22Hera, 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!
00:15:42The 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, I know you've suffered lately.
00:15:54We'll talk everything through after the wedding, okay?
00:15:59Your 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 nothing.
00:16:29No, that's not nothing.
00:16:29To me.
00:16:31You matter more than the throne, more than this kingdom, more than anything in this world.
00:16:39From this day on, we are neither ruler and subject, nor husband and wife.
00:16:50Hera!
00:16:51Hera!
00:16:52Hera!
00:16:52Come home safe.
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?
00:17:04Moses.
00:17:06Hera!
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! The king is finally marrying Commander Hera!
00:17:38What a glorious moment for Cade!
00:17:40I heard she lost her title, her army, even her sacred Crist.
00:17:44Why would they suddenly marry now?
00:17:46You don't understand. The king just wants her to put down her sword and live peacefully beside him. It's out
00:17:51of love.
00:17:52I see. Then we misunderstood his majesty.
00:18:03Your majesty, we've arrived at Hera's estate.
00:18:07What nerve! The king himself arrives! Dare you not come greet him?
00:18:12This is an insult to the crown!
00:18:14Don't blame her. She's been hurt lately. I'll speak to her myself.
00:18:21What's wrong? Where's Hera?
00:18:24Well...
00:18:25Go find her now!
00:18:37Stop!
00:18:44Your majesty...
00:18:46Tell me where Hera is. Answer honestly.
00:18:50Your majesty!
00:18:52Lady Hera left the capital the day she surrendered the sacred crest! I have no idea where she went either!
00:19:02What?!
00:19:02No! That's impossible! You're lying! Hera swore to my father she'd take me protect Cade! She swore before the gods!
00:19:08She would never leave me!
00:19:09Your majesty, I swear by the gods, but dare perceive you!
00:19:12Insolence! How dare you speak such nonsense before his majesty!
00:19:16Hera, now that you're gone, your kingdom and your man are all mine!
00:19:22Your majesty, I swear by the gods, Lady Hera truly left the capital! Before she left, she ordered me to
00:19:29throw away all the old belongings in the estate!
00:19:31Hera, these night-bracels were offered by the Lord of the Eastern Territories! I saved them especially for you! Wear
00:19:37them, like I'm always by your side, protecting you!
00:19:40I love them. I'll treasure them forever.
00:19:43Old belongings. Could she mean, all the things I gave her?
00:19:49Where are they?!
00:19:51Over there! Half of them have already burned!
00:19:58No. Those were my gifts to her.
00:20:11Hera, look. This is our vow parchment. It says, I'll love Hera forever, and we'll never be apart.
00:20:17Yes. We'll be together forever, never apart.
00:20:25When you're away at war, if you miss me, look at this painting.
00:20:31Whenever I miss you, I'll keep looking at it.
00:20:36Guards! This man destroyed royal property! Execute him immediately! Guards! This man destroyed royal property! Execute him immediately!
00:20:44Mercy, your majesty! I swear by the gods! I didn't know those belonged to the royal family! Please spare me!
00:20:51You can't do this! He didn't know!
00:20:53Your majesty, you can't kill him!
00:20:55What? You're defending him now?
00:20:57Lady Hera just left, and you already want to execute her old servant. If she hears about this, what will
00:21:02she think of you?
00:21:03Right. She just left. She can't have gone far yet. I can still bring Hera back!
00:21:08Hera no longer holds any office. You have no right to force her back.
00:21:14She may not hold office anymore, but she is still my rightful fiancé. I have every right to bring her
00:21:20back.
00:21:21Hera abandoned the royal wedding and disgraced the crown before the entire kingdom.
00:21:25That's treason against the royal family and betrayal of the gods. A crime worthy of death.
00:21:31Exactly! Hera deserves to die for this!
00:21:36Brother, have you ever stopped to think why Hera left without a word?
00:21:40Have you reflected on anything you've done?
00:21:44Cain, are you saying all of this is my fault?
00:21:47I would never dare.
00:21:48Enough! Get out! I don't want to see you right now!
00:21:55And you, do you think this is my fault too?
00:21:58Of course not! This is all Hera's doing. She's manipulated everyone around her.
00:22:04She bewitched Cain with that pretty face of hers. That's why he keeps defending her.
00:22:10I knew it! Cain must have feelings for Hera. But now, how do I fix this mess?
00:22:18I thought marrying her would stabilize the kingdom. But she escaped, turning me into a joke of the whole kingdom!
00:22:25I have a solution, your majesty.
00:22:28Say it!
00:22:29The only way to calm the royal court and the people is to find someone to impersonate Hera until this
00:22:37crisis passes.
00:22:38Your height and figure are close enough to Hera's. You'll do.
00:22:44Your majesty, I'm afraid I may not be worthy enough for such a role.
00:22:48That was not a request. It's an order. Do you dare refuse me?
00:22:54Aye, as you command.
00:23:01Hera, the kingdom you built, and the man you loved. From now on, they'll all belong to me.
00:23:08Hera, I am the king of Cade. The ruler of this world. No one's allowed to defy me.
00:23:23Hera, is that you? You finally came back to me. My Hera. I knew you were hurt before.
00:23:33But why wouldn't you just listen to me? I wanted to tell you everything. On our wedding night.
00:23:42Hera, I fell in love with you the very first moment I saw you.
00:23:46But I'm a king. I wasn't just myself. Couldn't you have understood me just a little more?
00:23:52But don't worry. I'll make it up to you from now on.
00:23:57Irene even taught me how to please a woman. I'll make you happy. I'll make all your pain disappear.
00:24:06Why is it you?
00:24:08Irene, where's my Hera?
00:24:13Your majesty! We located Hera. She's currently in the Essos Ridge region.
00:24:18Great. I'm leaving immediately. I'll bring Hera back myself.
00:24:22Hera, you bitch. I'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.
00:24:40After everything you did for Cade. After all your victories. This is how the king repaid you. How can the
00:24:46world be this unfair?
00:24:47I spent my whole life fighting wars for the kingdom. Now that I finally have peace you should be happy
00:24:53for me.
00:24:54Maybe so. But it's still so unfair. It's heartbreaking.
00:25:04Look out!
00:25:10Such strong magic. They aren't ordinary assassins.
00:25:18Hera. Time to die.
00:25:28Don't touch her!
00:25:39Gareth!
00:25:47Gareth!
00:25:49No!
00:25:50No!
00:25:50No!
00:25:50No!
00:25:51No!
00:25:53No!
00:25:54No!
00:25:55No!
00:25:57Your 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?
00:26:11Who else in Cade has this kind of power besides the king himself?
00:26:15Don't touch her!
00:26:16No!
00:26:17No!
00:26:19No!
00:26:20Cade!
00:26:21Stay with me!
00:26:22You can't die!
00:26:24No!
00:26:27No!
00:26:29No!
00:26:33No!
00:26:34No!
00:26:34No!
00:26:36No!
00:26:37No!
00:26:42No!
00:26:43Love!
00:26:43and you and Cade.
00:26:44I came all this way to bring you back and this is what I find?
00:26:48sneaking around with my own brother?....
00:26:50You're
00:26:51a prince. Why would
00:26:53you throw yourself in front of that blade for me? It's
00:26:56not worth... ... Lady
00:26:57Hera,
00:26:58you gave everything for Cade. For it's
00:27:00people. It's my
00:27:02honor to save you. I dreamed of
00:27:03marrying you.
00:27:05Of 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.
00:27:17Brother, 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.
00:27:26You expect me to believe that?
00:27:27If your majesty has already decided what to believe,
00:27:31then there's nothing left to explain.
00:27:34Since you have nothing to say,
00:27:36guards, execute Hera now!
00:27:44That's a royal command!
00:27:46Are 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.
00:27:58Your majesty, Hera 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?
00:28:11Then 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.
00:28:24The document?
00:28:26The 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!
00:28:45Now!
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!
00:29:14Hera!
00:29:14I swear to the gods, I 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.
00:29:33Then that means you can still-
00:29:34I once swore before the gods that I would give you 100 chances.
00:29:38You've used every last one.
00:29:40100?
00:29:41How could they all be gone already?
00:29:43No!
00:29:44You're lying to me!
00:29:45That was a hundred 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 who throw their lives away.
00:30:02From this day on,
00:30:04we are neither ruler and subject,
00:30:07nor husband and wife.
00:30:14Now the hundred chances are truly gone.
00:30:17It's time to leave.
00:30:20Everything in Kato belongs to me!
00:30:23Including you!
00:30:25I'd kill you rather than let you leave me!
00:30:31Fine.
00:30:33If you truly want my life,
00:30:34then take it.
00:30:36Your Majesty!
00:30:37You can't kill her!
00:30:41She'd rather be killed than come back to me.
00:30:44Your 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.
00:30:57If 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.
00:31:20Everyone says Hera has the people behind her.
00:31:22Power everywhere.
00:31:24Loyal followers everywhere she goes.
00:31:26Yeah, that is terrifying.
00:31:27Your Majesty.
00:31:28Please 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.
00:31:37I will never rebel.
00:31:38You won't.
00:31:39But what about your men?
00:31:40Gavin, Aaron, 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.
00:31:57The 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...
00:32:09What's your tongue?
00:32:10Dare question royal affairs in front of me?
00:32:11Want to die?
00:32:14And that's not enough.
00:32:15Swear before the gods that you will never serve anyone else for the rest of your life.
00:32:19Or you'll be punished with God's harshest judgment.
00:32:22I accept.
00:32:23I accept.
00:32:24I, Hera, swear before the gods.
00:32:25For the rest of my life, I will fight me for Cade and remain loyal only to Cade.
00:32:29I will never serve another kingdom or power.
00:32:31If I break this oath, may the gods deliver their harshest punishment upon me.
00:32:35Hera!
00:32:36You'd rather abandon all your talent and disappear into the wilderness than stay by my side?
00:32:40I 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, live the rest of my life in peace, and never involve myself in the
00:32:54kingdom again.
00:32:55You good, Hera!
00:32:56So you really think Cade will fall apart without you?
00:32:58That 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, there's never a shortage of warriors or brilliant minds.
00:33:10With Irene leading the kingdom, Cade will thrive just fine.
00:33:13Better than ever, actually.
00:33:15I won't disappoint your majesty's trust.
00:33:20Moses 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.
00:33:35Your majesty is wise.
00:33:37Before I leave, there 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, Cade has suffered through years of war.
00:33:47The people are exhausted.
00:33:49Lower the taxes and don't burden them any further.
00:33:52I already know that.
00:33:54Second, the 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, which will bring disaster to the kingdom.
00:34:15Lord Moriak, unstoppable!
00:34:17One man against 10,000!
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, never trust the Orc Empire.
00:34:31Gromash and his court are brutal by nature.
00:34:33Never lower your guard around them.
00:34:36Finished, that's all.
00:34:38Nothing new to rule the kingdom.
00:34:40Don't underestimate these three rules.
00:34:42If you can truly follow them, Cade will be in peace for a hundred years.
00:34:48Hera, 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.
00:34:54This 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, and 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, all 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, even if it means doing the roughest labor.
00:35:51Lady Hera, please 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 and live a few peaceful years.
00:36:07During your years in power, you did so much for us.
00:36:10Now traitorous dimensions drive 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.
00:36:51You saw it with your own eyes.
00:36:54The people of this land recognize only Hera in their hearts, not the royal family.
00:36:58I will accomplish great deeds for the world to see.
00:37:00I'll make Hera understand who truly deserves to rule Cade.
00:37:04Your majesty, I have a brilliant plan that will secure your throne quickly and elevate your
00:37:09prestige far above Hera's.
00:37:11Speak!
00:37:12What plan?
00:37:13Though Hera is gone, her influence within the court still remains.
00:37:17Your majesty should dismiss every official connected to her and replace them all with
00:37:22people loyal only to you.
00:37:23And you must win over the nobles and ministers by increasing their salaries and privileges.
00:37:27Only when those in power benefit from your rule will they truly devote themselves to you.
00:37:32Only 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, she repeatedly warned me never to raise taxes.
00:37:49Keep the people to live peacefully.
00:37:51You are mistaken.
00:37:52To secure royal authority, you must first secure the loyalty of those who hold power around you.
00:37:57Only when officials profit from your rule will they truly obey you.
00:38:00Hera wasn't protecting the people by opposing higher taxes.
00:38:04She was deliberately holding you back so you could never truly secure your throne.
00:38:08You mustn't fall for her tricks.
00:38:11What a scheming woman.
00:38:13Even after leaving, she's still plotting against me.
00:38:16As you said, deliver my order at once.
00:38:20Raise the taxes.
00:38:23Your Majesty, as Minister of Agriculture, I present three treasures.
00:38:28Superior wheat seeds, fertile soil fertilizer, and gilded farming sepuls.
00:38:33May Cade enjoy endless harvests, overflowing granaries, and freedom from famine forever.
00:38:39Excellent. Truly excellent.
00:38:41Cade is fortunate to have such a devoted official as you.
00:38:44I oversee the kingdom's military affairs and offer the Blacksteel Command Seal,
00:38:49the Lionheart Battle Armor, and the Hundred War Bone.
00:38:52May Cade Cavalry become invincible and 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, our borders will remain secure forever.
00:39:06I present the Star Crystal Stepter, the Deep Sea Pearl Crown, and the Holy Light Blessing Scroll.
00:39:13May your Majesty's glory shake the world, win 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, and the court stands united.
00:39:39This is true prosperity.
00:39:48The entire kingdom celebrates today, and every minister offers congratulations.
00:39:53Why are you sitting there, in silence, without the slightest smile?
00:40:02Congratulations, Your Majesty.
00:40:04Are you still unwilling to accept it, thinking that without Hera,
00:40:09Cade could never maintain its essence glory?
00:40:11I didn't think so. Let'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, enough!
00:40:22You still side with her in your heart!
00:40:25I would truly like to see Hera's expression when she realizes Cade remains prosperous even without her.
00:40:31Prosperous?
00:40:31The taxes are crushing the people until they can barely breathe.
00:40:35Citizens are displaced, suffering miserably everywhere.
00:40:37And you call this prosperous?
00:40:46The taxes are due!
00:40:47How dare you delay payment?
00:40:49If you still refuse spare money to pay, I'll whip you to death!
00:40:52Sir, this year's harvest completely failed.
00:40:56The 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 will 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.
00:41:14Raising taxes slightly is what made this grand banquet and this stability possible.
00:41:18What is wrong with that?
00:41:20Before Hera left, she repeatedly warned that taxes must never be raised.
00:41:25The people needed time to recover.
00:41:27You 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, then I have nothing
00:41:39left to say.
00:41:40Insolence!
00:41:41Since you despise everything here so much, then get out!
00:41:45Go to the Far North and never back again!
00:41:47Your Majesty, please don't!
00:41:50The Far North borders the Orc territories.
00:41:52If Prince Cain goes there, he 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 have already...
00:42:04Already what?
00:42:06Speak!
00:42:07They have already been ceded by Lady Irene to the Orc Empire of the Gromish Royal Court.
00:42:12Your Majesty, those 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, not a great deal.
00:42:30This little beauty looks good!
00:42:33Take her with us!
00:42:34Look!
00:42:35Look!
00:42:36Let me go!
00:42:37Let me go!
00:42:41You beasts!
00:42:42Let go of my daughter!
00:42:49With the King being this foolish, Cade will fall.
00:42:53Apologize to me now, and I'll let you stay in the Royal City.
00:42:57Spare you from suffering in the Far North.
00:43:00There'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.
00:43:10I'm leaving now.
00:43:14Report!
00:43:15A devastating locust playing has erupted in Gale Wind City.
00:43:18The crops have all been devoured, and countless civilians are starving to death.
00:43:29Get it, move away!
00:43:30Get it, fuck it!
00:43:32Wow!
00:43:33Wow!
00:43:36Your Majesty, Silvermean 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!
00:43:58Hisение at work should be strong.
00:43:59Did you swear the Kingdom was thriving?
00:44:01With good harvests, peaceful people, no disasters?
00:44:04Now we've got locusts and floods, and you hid it from me? How dare you?
00:44:10Your Majesty! I swear I'm innocent! I 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. I'll send people to verify it immediately and get you the truth.
00:44:31Your Majesty, the reports are true. My spies across the kingdom just confirmed everything.
00:44:37Fine. If the disasters are real, then it's simple. Open the treasury. Send food and gold. The people will settle
00:44:42down soon enough.
00:44:46Your Majesty, the treasury, it's empty. We plan to raise taxes again after the birthday banquet just to keep the
00:44:53palace running, but now...
00:44:55No! That's impossible! We just collected taxes not long ago. How could the treasury be empty?
00:45:01The money's already gone, Your Majesty. The 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.
00:45:57Heria. If Heria 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 listened 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?
00:46:32Then why aren't you here? Why? Cade's falling apart now. Disasters everywhere. People are suffering.
00:46:39Hera, are you really going to stand there and watch me fail?
00:46:42Hera, I miss you. Please come back. Please save Cade. Save me.
00:46:56The king keeps squeezing the people dry. Now we've got locusts and floods back to back.
00:47:02The people can't survive like this.
00:47:04The king doubted you, humiliated you and tried to kill you back then. You can't seriously go back and save
00:47:10him.
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!
00:47:26Why? 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 favor. 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. The 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. And once that happens, Cade will be facing enemies inside and outside the kingdom. There will be
00:48:56no saving it then.
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.
00:49:05Your 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.
00:49:17Pass 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.
00:49:46Leave this to 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.
00:50:11Your Majesty. I'm Morack.
00:50:15See, 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.
00:50:24Fine. Get up and speak.
00:50:28Thank you, Your Majesty.
00:50:30You've traveled a long way here. Must be exhausted.
00:50:32The journey means nothing. But today, in front 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.
00:50:49And if disaster or war ever struck, the Royal Treasury would provide relief for the people immediately.
00:50:56But what happened?
00:50:59Not only have you sent us nothing, you broke the agreement yourselves.
00:51:03You buried the people under Endless and drove them straight into hell!
00:51:08Is this how the Royal keeps its word?
00:51:10We swore loyalty to Cade because we believed in Hera's honor.
00:51:14But you've broken every promise she made.
00:51:17What explanation do you have for the Northern soldiers and citizens?
00:51:22How dare you?
00:51:24Are you openly questioning the Royal Court now?
00:51:26Or are you trying to challenge the King's authority?
00:51:30I've never questioned the Royal.
00:51:32I only ask for justice for my people.
00:51:36Royal policy is decided by the Court, not by border warriors like you.
00:51:40Your only job is to control your territory, keep the border stable, and obey orders.
00:51:46And you can't even manage that.
00:51:48Yet you still dare bark at the King?
00:51:51A surrendered brute like you?
00:51:53Dares act arrogant in the Royal Hall?
00:51:55Who the hell do you think you are?
00:51:57Know your place, loser.
00:51:59The Royal family told you to guard the Northern Gate, so stay there and wag your tail.
00:52:04Don't come to the capital barking.
00:52:06You're nothing but a poor thing the Royal took in out of pity.
00:52:10We fed you, and you should have stayed grateful and obedient.
00:52:14Dare you disrespect your Majesty and me?
00:52:17You deserve nothing!
00:52:18And that precious Hera you worship so much?
00:52:22She's nothing but a discarded failure the King threw away.
00:52:25A stray dog driven out of the palace.
00:52:28And my defeated loser.
00:52:30And my defeated loser.
00:52:32You bitch!
00:52:34How dare you insult Hera!
00:52:36You filthy little snake!
00:52:38For saying that alone, you deserve to die!
00:52:47Morlach!
00:52:48Are you insane?
00:52:49What the hell are you doing?
00:52:51I...
00:52:52I'm the Grand Marshal of the Kingdom.
00:52:54You're the Grand Marshal.
00:52:56That's right.
00:52:58Lay one finger on me and you'll be guilty of treason!
00:53:01The Grand Marshal is a useless, poisonous rat like you.
00:53:04Then Cade truly is finished.
00:53:05Morlach!
00:53:06How dare you?
00:53:07Let Eren go right now!
00:53:08Now!
00:53:09Hera once praised you, a wise king carrying the people.
00:53:11But now that I've seen you with my own eyes, you're nothing but a blind fool surrounded by corrupt snakes.
00:53:16You insolent bastard!
00:53:17How dare you insult the king!
00:53:19Go to hell!
00:53:25Nobody move!
00:53:26Whoever takes one more step, I slip her throat right here.
00:53:30No mercy!
00:53:30Back off!
00:53:31All of you!
00:53:32Back off!
00:53:33Don't come near me, please!
00:53:34Why things become this bad?
00:53:36When Hera was here, everything's going well.
00:53:39Everyone!
00:53:40Move back immediately!
00:53:41Get to the sides!
00:53:43Your Majesty, you cannot let him leave alive.
00:53:46Morlach is too dangerous.
00:53:48If he escapes the palace today, he must raise 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.
00:53:58If anyone attacks me now, I'll drag Eren straight to hell with me.
00:54:01Your Majesty, save me!
00:54:03Don't listen to him!
00:54:04Lord Morlach, I'll give you money, land, power, anything you want.
00:54:07Just don't kill me!
00:54:08A coward like you actually sits in power?
00:54:10You're rotten to the bone.
00:54:12Your Majesty, sacrificing Irene in exchange for killing Morlach would secure the kingdom
00:54:17for generations.
00:54:18For the sake of all Cade's people, you must not let him go!
00:54:22We beg your majesty to abandon Irene.
00:54:25Kill the traitor Morlach and protect the kingdom!
00:54:34My Hera, you've been working on military matters all morning.
00:54:37Must be starving by now.
00:54:38Come on, try the food I made for you.
00:54:41You made all this yourself?
00:54:43Sure.
00:54:43This camp barely has supplies.
00:54:45If I had proper ingredients, I could make you a real feast.
00:54:48This is already more than enough.
00:54:50Thank you, my dear Cain.
00:54:53My Lady!
00:54:54Urgent military report!
00:54:55Urgent 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.
00:55:11God!
00:55:11Morlach's temper is terrifying.
00:55:13The openly challenging the Royal Family could have 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.
00:55:27He ordered the guards to stand down and allowed Morak to leave for the north safely.
00:55:34No, that's bad.
00:55:35A lot of innocent people are going to die now.
00:55:41You ungrateful traitor!
00:55:43The king spared your life out of mercy because of your past service.
00:55:46And this is how you repay him.
00:55:47The second you return north, you gather an army and openly rebel against the crown.
00:55:51That's treason!
00:55:52So you're Irene's loser brother.
00:55:55Makes sense.
00:55:56As arrogant and useless as she is.
00:55:58Believe me, I could flatten this city in a second and cut off your head as my wine cup.
00:56:02Then open your damn eyes and look around.
00:56:04Our walls are unbreakable.
00:56:05Our food supplies are full and our soldiers are 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.
00:56:19Grand Marshal Hera.
00:56:21No need for formalities.
00:56:23I know you're loyal and honorable.
00:56:25Everything that happened before wasn't truly your choice.
00:56:28I will honor every single promise I made.
00:56:31To lower taxes, care for the soldiers and bring peace to the north.
00:56:35I swear it.
00:56:36But look at the kingdom now.
00:56:37A righteous leader like Hera was framed, humiliated and driven out by corrupt cowards like you.
00:56:43I didn't raise this army for power.
00:56:46I'm fighting for Hera's honor.
00:56:47For justice for the suffering people of the north.
00:56:50North soldiers, charge.
00:56:53Break Stonehold City.
00:56:54Fight for Hera's name.
00:56:56For peace of north.
00:57:00All soldiers, rain arrows.
00:57:03Drop the boulders.
00:57:04Crush these traitors into pieces.
00:57:21Karen, get the catapult ready.
00:57:24Launch me onto the wall.
00:57:26Release it.
00:57:27Full power.
00:57:37Stop him.
00:57:38Stop the monster.
00:57:39Kill him no matter what it takes.
00:57:53Look carefully.
00:57:55Your commander, Fulton, is now my prisoner.
00:57:58Nobody here can save him.
00:58:00I 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?
00:58:15I did not raise this army to betray the kingdom, but to restore Hera's honor.
00:58:20To make people of the north live in peace again.
00:58:24Throw down your weapons and surrender.
00:58:27I swear on my life as a warrior, no 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.
00:58:37I surrender willingly.
00:58:39We surrender.
00:58:40From now on, we're willing to follow you and 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.
00:59:04Your 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.
00:59:15No.
00:59:17Is it truly Hera's secretly plotting against me?
00:59:19Think 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, how 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, but in reality, she's humiliating the royal and attacking your
00:59:37authority and 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, letting her followers create
00:59:47chaos, humiliating 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!
01:00:02I let Morlock go to save you, giving 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.
01:00:10I've already prepared for this.
01:00:12My brother Fulton is guarding Stonehold City, the 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, Morrick will never reach the capital city.
01:00:23And my brother's a battle-hardened general.
01:00:26Morlock may be strong, but he's just a brute.
01:00:29There'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!
01:00:51No!
01:00:53That's impossible!
01:00:54My brothers fought in countless battles!
01:00:56Stonehold City was supposed to be impressible!
01:00:59How could it fall so fast?
01:01:00How could he die?
01:01:02Enough, Irene.
01:01:03All your grand lies have mislaid the court and ruined the kingdom's plans.
01:01:07Now Morlock'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?
01:01:18Your majesty, please calm your anger.
01:01:22I have one final plan that can save the kingdom from destruction.
01:01:27Then spit it out, now.
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 Orcian 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!
01:01:47Your majesty, remember my final warning.
01:01:51Never forget it.
01:01:53The Orcs are savage by nature, bloodthirsty and ambitious.
01:01:58They've always coveted the rich lands of Cade.
01:02:00They can never be trusted.
01:02:01I have never forgotten Hera's warning.
01:02:04The Orcs are greedy wolves.
01:02:07Allying with them would be suicidal.
01:02:09It could destroy Cade.
01:02:12Your majesty, this is no time to hesitate.
01:02:14Mordech's army is launching straight for us.
01:02:16He wants your throne.
01:02:17The Orcs only want gold, food, and a small piece of border territory.
01:02:21If paying that price protects your crown and saves all our lives, it's more than worth it.
01:02:27Fine.
01:02:27We've almost reached the dead end.
01:02:29There's no other choice now.
01:02:30I'll take the risk.
01:02:31Rest 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.
01:03:25I'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.
01:03:36Marshal 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, Morlach 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?
01:04:08Your 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.
01:04:28There'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.
01:04:39Speak.
01:04:40What happened?
01:04:42Morlach's hundred thousand man army has completely withdrawn.
01:04:46What?
01:04:46They 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.
01:04:59Ha ha ha ha!
01:05:01Your Majesty!
01:05:03Isn't the answer obvious?
01:05:05My strategy worked perfectly.
01:05:08Just the threat of my preparations alone terrified Morlach 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.
01:05:38So that's why Irene's brilliant strategy intimidated the rebels and forced back a hundred thousand enemy troops without sacrificing a
01:05:47single soldier from the capital.
01:05:49Irene, you are the kingdom's greatest pillar.
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.
01:05:58They 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.
01:06:05How 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!
01:06:55And you dare disobey your King's orders!
01:06:58Delaying 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!
01:07:12The capital's no longer under threat.
01:07:15Commander Gromsh,
01:07:16I've received confirmed military reports.
01:07:19The 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!
01:07:42Gold, food, treasures, women!
01:07:44Everything inside belongs to you!
01:07:46Show no mercy!
01:07:48All troops, prepare for battle!
01:07:50Archers, fire!
01:07:52Drop the stones!
01:07:53Pour the oil!
01:07:55Hold the gates!
01:07:59Gromsh!
01:08:01You savage beast!
01:08:03Never trample the capital of Cadet!
01:08:22Kill whoever you want!
01:08:24Take!
01:08:25Enter the city!
01:08:26Loot everything!
01:08:27Burn everything!
01:08:28Kill whoever you want!
01:08:30Take whatever you want!
01:08:31Tonight, we feast!
01:08:40Urgent!
01:08:40Your Majesty, Gromsh 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 and defended this kingdom for decades!
01:09:05How could he just die like that?
01:09:08It's true, Your Majesty.
01:09:09I saw it with my own eyes.
01:09:11General Garrick fought Gromsh alone and never backed down until the final blow from the axe
01:09:15struck him down on the city wall.
01:09:17The orc army is advancing at full speed.
01:09:20Within half a day, they will reach the palace gates.
01:09:25It's the end.
01:09:27The capital is gone.
01:09:29Who can protect me?
01:09:30Who can save Cade?
01:09:32I don't want to die by those monsters.
01:09:35Your Majesty!
01:09:35The 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.
01:09:46She must be executed immediately.
01:09:48Only her death can climb the people's rage.
01:09:50Execute Irene.
01:09:51Pay 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!
01:10:33Please.
01:10:35Your Majesty.
01:10:36Spare me.
01:10:38I can still help you.
01:10:39I can serve you with my everything.
01:10:41Irene, there's no way out anymore.
01:10:44The kingdom has reached its end.
01:10:46Only your death can calm everyone's rage.
01:10:49Only then will I have the face to beg Hera to return.
01:10:53Right now, she is the only one who can save Cade.
01:10:57Byron, give me the sword.
01:11:00Your Majesty, what are you doing?
01:11:02No, please!
01:11:03Spare 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!
01:11:14I beg you!
01:11:18I beg you!
01:11:22I beg you!
01:11:23I beg you!
01:11:24I beg you!
01:11:24I beg you!
01:11:25I beg you!
01:11:25I beg you!
01:11:43Hera, are you really going back to the battlefield?
01:11:47To 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.
01:11:55and come back alive.
01:11:58When you do,
01:12:00I'll give you a big wedding.
01:12:03The orcs?
01:12:04No way.
01:12:05The palace is impenetrable.
01:12:07How could they reach us this fast?
01:12:08Of course I arranged everything.
01:12:10Sir, it's me who opened the hidden gate
01:12:12so that you could break in.
01:12:14You must protect me.
01:12:15You're right.
01:12:16Thanks to you,
01:12:16we could break into the palace this easily.
01:12:18You witch!
01:12:19You betrayed me and the kingdom for glory,
01:12:21colluded with our enemies
01:12:22and stained your hands with countless lives.
01:12:24You are the true traitor of Picade.
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
01:12:31and exiled Hera on my own.
01:12:34You regret it?
01:12:35Too late.
01:12:36You were the one who killed the loyal
01:12:38and forced Hera out.
01:12:39Everything happening now is your own doing.
01:12:42You never deserve the throne.
01:12:44You are nothing but a weak and incompetent king.
01:12:47Hera,
01:12:48I was wrong.
01:12:49I was truly wrong.
01:12:51Your Majesty,
01:12:52the situation is hopeless.
01:12:53I'll hold them off
01:12:54while you flee at once.
01:12:57I am the king of Cade.
01:12:59How can a king run away?
01:13:02I won't leave.
01:13:04Your Majesty,
01:13:05please leave now
01:13:07or it's too late.
01:13:11Ha ha ha ha!
01:13:13There's nowhere left to run.
01:13:15Cade's over today.
01:13:18I will protect the king
01:13:19to my last blest.
01:13:38Your Majesty, run!
01:13:41Ah!
01:13:44Chica.
01:13:44Your Majesty, run!
01:13:45Pathetic old man.
01:13:50Thorn, I'm sorry! I should have listened to you!
01:13:53Your Majesty, don't say that. Run. Only you can save Cade.
01:14:04In our old empire, we have a punishment for fallen kings. It'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. Crawl. Show everyone what the king has become.
01:14:44The End
01:14:45The End
01:14:45The End
