00:00Tain, wind, fire, water, earth, in order. Don't let it break you.
00:17Thirteen. Fourteen. Fifteen.
00:35First one. Done.
00:43Second one.
00:48Fire.
01:14Fire element. Five units per minute. Twenty seconds.
01:20Ten, stay with me. Remember who you are. You're Tain, not Hattu.
01:44Ten more seconds. You've got this.
01:51I trust you.
02:03Next! Water!
02:19No!
02:43That's the seal array.
02:45The Rapa Nu engineers carved it into his fragment, not into stone.
02:49Into flesh.
02:52How long left?
02:55Water element. Four units per minute.
02:58Twenty-five seconds.
03:00Eight left.
03:02Seven.
03:05Six.
03:07Five.
03:09Three!
03:11Two!
03:13One!
03:14One!
03:16Tain lost one of us!
03:19Hold on!
03:20Hold on and you win!
03:23One!
03:26One!
03:29One!
03:31One!
03:33One!
03:36One!
03:39One!
03:39One!
03:40One!
03:43One!
03:44One!
03:44One!
03:49One!
03:49Tain?
03:50One!
03:53One!
03:53I still remember your name.
03:55Nora.
03:57Ghoul.
03:58Not a god.
03:58A person.
04:01We did it!
04:04You sure he's still him?
04:05Yes.
04:06What the hell is Silas playing at?
04:08I don't know, but it's not as simple as he said.
04:10We can't keep following his plan! Let's go back! Find another way!
04:12I can't. Half the path's kept in behind us.
04:14Then we go forward.
04:15Find my mom, find the cure.
04:17Whatever Silas wants, we can negotiate.
04:24The first and the sixth.
04:35Fire forges bone.
04:37Few survive the flame.
04:39Elements cast the heart.
04:40Feeling dies the same.
04:43No god by birth, men rise to throne.
04:46Keep the soul, or turn to rust.
04:50No god, men rise to throne.
04:52Keep the soul, or turn to rust.
04:56He rose to divinity, yet his obsession remained.
05:01Failing to become a true deity, he storms, he shatters, he burns.
05:07He became a tyrant because he wanted to go back.
05:09Back to being human.
05:10And couldn't.
05:19Hattu's legs.
05:20This chamber holds his legs.
05:28They're inside me now.
05:39The smell, like blood, but not quite.
05:44Well water, from an ancient well.
05:46How do you know that?
05:52I don't know.
05:53But I know a lot of things I didn't before.
06:04Circular cypher.
06:05The Rapa Nui used this pattern to mean cycle, or infinite.
06:08Whatever's behind this door, it's not a fixed space.
06:10It loops.
06:11Loops into what?
06:14Only one way to find out.
06:21The Defiant Ones.
06:22They tried to fight back against Hattu after he turned.
06:25He made them into this.
06:26No, Hattu didn't do it.
06:28They became this on their own.
06:29What do you mean?
06:34They're still alive.
06:36Alive?
06:37Locked inside the stone.
06:38Heart's still beating.
06:40Mind's still there.
06:40Eight hundred years trapped in the punishment for defying a god.
06:46They're copying us.
06:50Not just copying.
06:51They're anticipating us.
06:57They're speeding up.
06:59The gas is closing.
07:01What?
07:09It works.
07:11Copying me kills them.
07:20There's a well up there.
07:21That might be the way out.
07:39Nora, do you want her back?
07:44Make a wish.
07:45I can bring her back to you.
07:47No.
07:49No.
08:11Leave your hand.
08:13It's okay.
08:17This isn't a wishing well.
08:19It's a converter.
08:21The wish is just the command.
08:23The power behind it?
08:25That's me.
08:27What do you mean?
08:30My power is unlimited now.
08:32The springs ran dry, but their energy didn't disappear.
08:34It all pumped into me.
08:36I can do anything.
08:37Melt ice, open stone doors, slow time.
08:40I can even bring back the dead.
08:41Can you break the seal on Cornelia?
08:43Yes.
08:44I can do anything.
08:45It just costs something.
08:46Costs something?
08:47Yeah, like pain, fear, joy, memory, or myself.
08:51That's the one thing in this world I don't know.
08:53No, absolutely not.
08:54The seal is breaking.
08:55Your mother can't hold on much longer.
08:57Make a wish.
08:57Free her.
08:58Bring her back.
08:59One word.
08:59Nora, let me handle it.
09:06Are you out of your mind?
09:07Do you know what that means?
09:08Yeah.
09:09It means I can give Nora what she wants.
09:11You're out of your goddamn mind.
09:16No, dang.
09:21My mom held on for 12 years.
09:23She can hold a little longer.
09:25I'm going to walk to her myself.
09:27On my own two feet.
09:29Not with a wish.
09:42Get back!
09:52Fragment resonant in the gas.
09:54It's corroding everything.
09:59The bottom's not solid.
10:01There's a door down there, sealed shut.
10:03This was never a wishing well.
10:04It's a trap.
10:06Every wish you make, the seal loosens a little.
10:08We didn't wish, so it blew.
10:10What's behind it?
10:11Hattu's head.
10:13Sealed down there.
10:14That's where we need to go.
10:24Nora, jump or stay.
10:26I trust your call.
10:34Jump!
10:49That's Hattu.
10:50This is the core of the entire seal.
10:53The crystal glass is the inner wall of the cage.
10:55The outer layer is obsidian from cold volcanic rock.
10:58The inner is quartz crystallized under pressure.
11:01Natural prison.
11:01Someone got here before us.
11:04Exceptional talent.
11:06I've used that phrase for years and never meant it.
11:09Today I do.
11:11You've been watching us this whole time.
11:14Watching?
11:15No.
11:17That's too crude a word.
11:19I was witnessing.
11:20The cure you promised never existed, did it?
11:23Correct.
11:24I put the fragment in your heart myself.
11:27You were five.
11:27You remember that date?
11:28There were 20 children in that batch.
11:31Every one of them was crying.
11:34Only you look back at me.
11:47There never was a cure.
11:52Pain!
12:04I made you, kid.
12:07Every groove on that fragment in your heart.
12:09I carved it myself.
12:13You don't bite your own tongue, do you?
12:17Same principle.
12:20What do you actually want?
12:21What do I want?
12:22I brought you to see a god.
12:26A real one.
12:27First generation.
12:28Forged by Rapa Nui engineers a thousand years ago.
12:31Complete power.
12:32Not fragments.
12:33Not residue.
12:34But he lost his mind.
12:38A thousand years in there.
12:40And all he does is break the glass.
12:43Like a madman with a knife.
12:48The sharper it gets, the more dangerous.
12:52But he'll never learn you can use a knife to cook.
12:54Just slash.
13:02But if someone were to go in.
13:05Replace him.
13:09A vessel that won't break.
13:12Someone who knows what a knife is actually for.
13:18She could do anything.
13:24Including walk your mother out of that wall.
13:29The fragment is resonating with him.
13:32The fragment is eating you.
13:33Every time you use your power it takes a bite.
13:35Look at that crack.
13:37Three years, maybe two.
13:38It'll swallow your heart whole.
13:40You'll turn to stone just like Hattu.
13:42But you won't be kept here.
13:43You'll just, just forgotten in some corner somewhere.
13:46Because you're a copy.
13:47The original's right there.
13:52If there's a new god, will the fragments stop?
14:00A god can do anything.
14:04I'll do it.
14:05You must let Nora and her mother go.
14:07Tane, what are you doing?
14:10I go in, I survive, your mom goes free.
14:12You and Drake can go home.
14:13Everyone wins.
14:16You misunderstand, boy.
14:19You're a good key.
14:20The best.
14:22I knew it when I put you in the lab at five.
14:27But once you open a door, the key has done its job.
14:31A vessel needs more than endurance.
14:35It needs wisdom.
14:38Discipline.
14:40The ability to pull back when desire is right in front of you.
14:46The star chamber, the inverted city, the elemental furnace, the wishing well.
14:51You think those were tests?
14:53You think those were tests?
14:53No.
14:54They were a filter.
14:57Forty years I spent.
14:59Forty years screening every person on Earth who could possibly carry divine power.
15:04This world is full of empty shells.
15:07I have three hundred of them laid out in my lab.
15:09I pour divinity into an empty shell.
15:11What do I get?
15:16Power overflowing.
15:18Humanity gone.
15:18A madman who can't stop breaking the glass.
15:25But you're different, Nora.
15:27Your bloodline.
15:28Your discipline.
15:29Your mind.
15:30I didn't choose you.
15:32Forty years of data chose you.
15:34Seven tablets chose you.
15:36This tomb chose you.
15:38The god chose you.
15:41Gods aren't born.
15:43They're chosen.
15:45And now, it's my turn to choose.
15:49Nora, I will make you the next god.
15:52What?
15:56Forty years of filtering.
15:58Forty years of waiting.
16:00Today, the scale finally makes its first measurement.
16:13You thought there were only seven Runga Runga tablets?
16:16No.
16:17There's an eighth, the heart of the scale.
16:20It doesn't record how to open the seal.
16:22It records.
16:26How to perform the replacement.
16:49What a perfect picture.
16:50On the left, the first generation god.
16:52A thousand years of complete power.
16:54On the right, the finest vessel forty years of work could find.
16:57The scale's principle is simple.
16:58Balance.
16:58When the two sides equalize, energy flows from heavy to light.
17:01The statue's divine power pours into your body.
17:03And he becomes a truly hollow stone statue.
17:19Wait, this isn't a pour.
17:20It's a current.
17:21The scale's principle is balance.
17:23Power is flowing in.
17:24But it's not being poured.
17:26It's moving.
17:29Two ends of the scale.
17:30One god, one human.
17:32The god yields.
17:33The human inherits.
17:35The old god shatters.
17:38The Rapa Nua used two symbols for sky and earth.
17:42Energy flows from sky to earth, never the reverse.
17:44But flip the symbols.
17:45Sun facing down, earth facing up, and the direction inverts.
17:48Basic rule of Rongolongo Cipher.
17:50The orientation of the symbol determines the direction of the energy.
17:54Sky and earth symbols differ by a single stroke.
17:56One diagonal line, bottom left to top right.
18:00You learned how to activate the scale.
18:03You never learned how to redirect it.

18:41what are you doing i spent 12 years finding seven tablets you thought i was just putting
18:47a puzzle together you're using your own consciousness to anchor a two-way channel
18:52but your mind won't hold two years maybe hatu will absorb you entirely two years of freedom
18:56for my mom worth it move now darren that's not how it works darren more useful than i expected
19:07detected scale determines vessel has rejected the transfer initiating secondary activation
19:18sequence no no i was just trying to protect you
19:29secondary activation complete
19:44nora hold on
20:09nora
20:10divine consciousness connects can you hear me
20:18tain draven hatu is anyone here where is this
20:25do you know what you're doing this is the most unbreakable cage in the world once you're in
20:30you don't leave hatu i'm not here to replace you i want to borrow your power to break a lock
20:36off a
20:37mother
20:39nora nora can you hear me
20:44it won't work you're not a real god
20:53bear witness the next god this world will ever know i am about to create
21:07those who steal the sacred flame will face the wrath of a god
21:23you think helping one more person will make them spare you
21:29let him go
21:34nothing but twigs
21:44go get out
21:48someone told me they wouldn't let me face this alone
21:50same goes for you i'm not leaving you to face him by yourself
21:55are you afraid of him
21:56afraid of becoming him
21:58more than half his power has already transferred to me
22:01he's a shell now you can beat him
22:04you will both turn to stone
22:23you will both turn to stone
22:33you will both turn to stone
22:53Aelia's flesh and blood.
22:55Break through this lair,
22:57and she dies.
23:13What?
23:16Your mother is the end of the seal, Aurea.
23:19Her flesh is the final lock.
23:21You thought breaking through would set her free?
23:23No.
23:24Break it and she dies.
23:26That's the contract she signed twelve years ago.
23:33You knew this would happen from the beginning?
23:36What I knew was, her mother would make the right choice.
23:40And now it's your turn.
23:41Push through the seal, your mother dies.
23:44Stop, and Hottie never gets out.
23:46Your mother stays in that wall forever.
23:49Choose one.
23:51The game's not over.
24:05What if I use the last of my power not to survive,
24:10but to rewrite?
24:13The seal's command.
24:15No!
24:20Nora!
24:21What are you doing?
24:23Have you lost your mind?
24:30No!
24:32Nora!
24:39You're out of your mind.
24:41You'll die!
24:43I know.
24:44Then why?
24:45You're alive!
24:47Because my mom held on for twelve years.
24:50Now, it's my turn to take her place.
24:54Dang, thank you for walking this far with me.
25:11Something's wrong in the sea chamber.
25:13Stop her.
25:14Keep her alive.
25:16You think you can outrun me down here?
25:19No!
25:22No!
25:22No!
25:24No!
25:25No!
25:28No!
25:30You don't... know... who I am.
25:34No!
25:35No!
25:36No!
25:37No!
25:39No!
25:39We've or our family are...
25:40No!
25:4740 years
25:4840 years
25:52Then a woman brings it all down
25:54You said
25:56You wouldn't leave me alone
26:00You lied
26:04She's alive
26:05Her heart's still beating
26:13So this is what it feels like
26:15To be weighed
