00:00Our house won't keep freeloaders.
00:04Take your clothes off now!
00:07No matter how hard it is to get in, I need that money to save my mother.
00:11For the child, I heard that lie way too many times.
00:14Water will only drown him!
00:16Pops in one piece!
00:18Why did you inject yourself with the forbidden water of life to conceive him?
00:21You got a pretty face.
00:23That blue stain on your pocket.
00:25Stay back!
00:26Don't dare, Pops!
00:28We're friends, would you?
00:29Get that away from me!
00:31Don't touch me!
00:33She must stop!
00:34I won't save her.
00:34I prefer to earn my King King than you, my dearest friend.
00:37The elixir of life! Use it now!
00:40I practiced the art of healing, and earned respect that crossed every class line.
00:45In the Thorn family, your rule is to be silent, muted as a shadow, and restraint like an Aztec.
00:53I heard Lord Reynold is looking for Wet Mother for his little heir.
00:56He even borrowed this corset.
00:58Why he's still here yet?
00:59It's Lord Reynold's throne.
01:01Even if he took me in just as his mistress, that'll still be much better than scrabbling in the dirt
01:07out out here.
01:08Lord Algarithorne is busy at the King's council.
01:12Now this castle is Lord Reynold's playground.
01:14Who shall not crave power?
01:16In a family like this, the higher they stand, the less they see the restless ones.
01:25Everyone here dresses to impress me.
01:29But only you in normal clothes.
01:33Interesting.
01:34First, the one in purple silk.
01:37Pass.
01:38Third, that pearl necklace.
01:41Pass.
01:41Fifth, you in the blue dress.
01:43Pass.
01:43Only one spot left.
01:45Mrs. Margie Fletcher!
01:47Please!
01:48Let me!
01:50Look at her.
01:51She's like a farm girl off to milk cows.
01:56So what do you have under an outfit like this?
01:58This round is about your aesthetics.
02:01You look like a vagrant.
02:02Is this an insult to the Thorn family?
02:05I applied to be a nursing aide.
02:06I'm here for the child in the castle.
02:08And my duty is to protect them and shield them.
02:12This linen has never been soaked in chemicals.
02:15No acrid stanks.
02:17The texture is soft.
02:18It won't cause rashes on the newborn skin.
02:21For the future heir of the Thorn family.
02:23Fancy laces like a sharp blade.
02:25Cleanness and safety.
02:27That's what matters more.
02:31You shall pass too.
02:35For the child?
02:36I heard that lie way too many times.
02:39That calculation in your eyes won't fool me.
02:42One more round.
02:43Mother, wait for me.
02:53This is the final round.
02:55In front of the Duchess and Lord Renamard,
02:58you need to prove yourselves to be qualified enough to serve the heir.
03:04This selection ends when the hourglass runs out.
03:08And we only take one candidate in.
03:13I need to stay here to get the money for my mom.
03:22Your grace, Lord Reynolds.
03:24The applicants are all here.
03:27So he's the Black Hawk who slaughtered thousands at the border.
03:31So he's the Black Hawk who slaughtered thousands at the border.
03:32Reynald as the uncle, you must keep this gate yourself.
03:37I'll make sure to keep the cleanest in.
03:44Lead powder and this cheap perfume.
03:46Such poison will go straight into the baby's lungs.
03:48Are you trying to murder my grandson?
03:57Revealing your breasts like that.
03:59Did you come to be a nursemaid or to seduce my sons?
04:02In this castle, any hint of pretentious disguises is a ticket to the grave.
04:07What are these people?
04:09None of them could even pass the most basic standard.
04:12Wait, mother.
04:17There's still one more.
04:24You don't even have the most basic supplies.
04:26You want to get into the Thorn family with trash like this?
04:29Electronic thermomids read more accurately.
04:32And it's harmless to the baby.
04:33These notebooks recorded 3,000 cases of nuisinal emergence.
04:37I am the lore of the Thorn family.
04:39If you thought these trash would buy me sympathy, you'd pick the wrong man.
04:44Get out.
04:44No, please don't.
04:46This is the only way for me to get the excellent for my mother.
04:51You're free!
04:52The young master, he can't breathe!
04:55What?
05:02Julian!
05:03Julian, don't scare me!
05:05I can save him!
05:14Take this reckless peasant out!
05:16She wants to touch the sacred bloodline of the Thorn family with her filthy hands!
05:21How old is she?
05:22Probably not yet weaned herself and she dares to lecture the cheap nursemaid?
05:27Trying for a dramatic rescue to catch Lord Reynolds' eye?
05:30That's so pathetic.
05:31It's okay, Your Grace.
05:33It's just a cold.
05:35Fetch some holy water.
05:36Bring me some warm honey milk.
05:38Feed him and soothe his throat.
05:39It'll work.
05:40Don't give him water!
05:41Don't shake him!
05:42It's not an illness!
05:43Something's lodged in his throat!
05:44Water will only drown him!
05:46What an insolence!
05:47I'm a certified royal nursenaire.
05:49And who are you to question me?
05:51Lord Rennard.
05:52Her nonsense babbling will only delay the treatment.
05:55Please have her executed now!
05:59Seize her.
06:01It is probably a lint or a bead caught in his throat.
06:05Any liquid will let it slide in his repertory system.
06:09And he'll be choked to death in your arms.
06:12Even if it kills me, I'll bring that child back to life.
06:25Find Julian!
06:29You shall die for it!
06:33You peasant!
06:34Release Julian now, and I can still leave your corpse in one piece!
06:40Your Grace, look!
06:41The madwoman not only snatched the baby,
06:43but she even wanted to choke him to death!
06:46You must execute her!
06:47A gutter rat thinks she can kill in the Thorn Castle?
06:50What a fool!
06:52Probably because she knew she couldn't win it,
06:54so she's taking him down with her.
06:57Oh, God!
06:59She's killing the future heir of the Thorn family!
07:02Lord Rennard, kill her!
07:03Shut up!
07:04I'm saving him!
07:06Rennard, save my child!
07:08She's killing my baby Julian!
07:14My Julian!
07:16She really was saving him.
07:20Oh, thank goodness!
07:22My Julian's alive!
07:28There.
07:29Shall I say that I was truly saving him?
07:32Your Grace!
07:34This must be witchcraft!
07:35She literally just abused our little master!
07:38Even if he spits something out,
07:40his organs must damage!
07:41Arrest her!
07:41Shut up!
07:48Certified Royal Chief Nursery?
07:50You almost drowned my nephew with a cup of water.
07:53Lord Rennard, I...
07:55I thought it was a cold, I...
07:58Throw her into the dungeons,
08:00and take her gold medal into the trash.
08:07Margaret, help her up.
08:14Lord Rennard, may I stay now?
08:18You saved him out of luck.
08:20I can see through the scheme and calculation in your eyes.
08:23This won't be enough to gain the trust of the Thorn family.
08:29If you think this is pure luck,
08:31then why wouldn't you do what I just did earlier?
08:35If it's not me,
08:37a calculating peasant,
08:39you might need to prepare Julian's funeral now.
08:42Interesting.
08:44You're the first woman who dares speak to me like that.
08:47Elena Weiss.
08:49You saved the future of the Thorn family.
08:52From now on,
08:52you shall be Julian's chief nursemaid,
08:56and you'll get a hundred gold coins per month.
08:59Prepare yourself,
09:00and you can report for duty as soon as possible.
09:04One hundred gold coins.
09:06Normally for nursemaids, it's only fifty.
09:09This is a lot.
09:10It ain't time to celebrate it yet.
09:12That candy scratched Julian's lungs.
09:15If fever sets in,
09:17you'll need to take the consequences.
09:20Three days.
09:21If you fail to keep Julian well,
09:24I'll bury you beside him.
09:26Yes.
09:27Lord Rennamald.
09:43My mother gave you this.
09:43Whatever it takes.
09:45I'll be staying in this house.
09:49It's fine.
09:50This wound is just the price of entry.
09:53I know that I shall not have a day of happiness after mother got ill.
10:02Lord Rennamald.
10:03Lord Rennamald.
10:05Lord Rennamald.
10:05My mother gave you this.
10:07Don't die before you can even take care of Julia.
10:09I don't want that one on my name.
10:16Mrs. Margaret Fletcher.
10:18In the house of Thorne,
10:19beside Lord Rennamald,
10:21there is another one you must take care of and serve.
10:23The one in the North Tower.
10:26North Tower?
10:27I thought the Duke's eldest son was away at council and there's no one left there.
10:31It's Lady Isabella Thorne, the Duke's eldest daughter.
10:34She was once the Empire's most brilliant diplomat.
10:37But after giving birth to the little master,
10:39she somehow changed and locked herself in the tower.
10:42I see.
10:43Thank you, Mrs. Fletcher.
10:46Elena!
10:47The lady refuses to take her medicine again.
10:49Come with me.
10:50Now!
10:52There's a wound on her neck.
10:54What kind of person this lady is?
11:01Get out!
11:03Take those black poison and get out!
11:14Get out!
11:16You think you can poison me with that black shit?
11:19Get out!
11:24Heavy doses of Valerium.
11:26Who the hell are you?
11:28Another dog of Remitz sent to watch me?
11:30Lady Isabella.
11:31I'm Julian's nursemaid.
11:34Nursemaid?
11:35That little screaming monster that only sucked my blood dry.
11:38He needs no nursemaid.
11:41Let go of me!
11:43I'll choke him!
11:43Without him!
11:44I'd still be the diplomat of the Empire, not some caged animal!
11:49If you truly hate him so much,
11:50why did you inject yourself with the forbidden water of life to conceive him?
11:55Hugh, how would you know that?
11:58The smell of Mandredge neutralizer on you.
12:00The swelling of your body.
12:01Those are scars of forced conception.
12:04I thought...
12:04I thought the baby would bring him back.
12:07But he followed that merchant's daughter, the principary.
12:10Men betray.
12:11But your child shall not.
12:13Julian is the closest person to you on Earth.
12:15He will never leave you.
12:16Really?
12:16Just give me a month.
12:17If I can't make the man kneel at the North Tower to beg for your forgiveness,
12:20you can take my life whenever you want.
12:22Fine.
12:23If you fail, you'll die.
12:28What is this?
12:30I said I won't drink those black sludgies.
12:32Lady Isabella, this isn't drugs.
12:34It's a sheation agent.
12:36It'll help you metabolize out the heavy metal toxins in your body.
12:39I don't care what it is!
12:40Take it away from me!
12:41Forgive me then, my lady.
12:44You dare to touch me!
12:45I'll kill you!
12:47You didn't just use fertility drugs, did you?
12:49It seems like you even put one lead powder on your skin to keep your skin glow.
12:53Your kidneys are failing because of that.
12:56Bullshit!
12:58That powder was blessed by the Holy Church!
13:02Lady Isabella,
13:04do you really want to have your face and body look like this one month later?
13:12A peasant woman not only knows,
13:16but the fertility drugs made by our family.
13:21Elena Weiss.
13:23Who sent you?
13:25Lord Reynold.
13:27If I were truly an assassin,
13:29Lady Isabella would already be a corpse.
13:32Are you blackmailing me?
13:34Or angling for a reward?
13:36Neither.
13:40Lord Reynold,
13:42Lady Isabella's ex-fiancé,
13:44Sir Kevin of the Principally,
13:45has come back.
13:46That's early than we expected?
13:48He brings the principal season boys,
13:50a visit for the marital alliance by name.
13:52But in fact,
13:53he wants the diplomatic seal Lady Isabella took with her years ago.
13:58Let's go.
14:02The diplomatic seal?
14:04It's a chance.
14:16Reynold.
14:18My poor Isabella is severely ill.
14:21The envoys can't wait for her.
14:23Please allow me to take her to the Principality for treatment.
14:27And hand over the diplomatic seal.
14:30Kevin.
14:32You fled your vows for three years and now,
14:35you're back for her seal.
14:40We thorns aren't charities for free.
14:43We all know that Isabella's mad,
14:45she even tries to kill her own child.
14:48Letting a hysterical mad woman keep the seal
14:50would only humiliate the Principality.
14:57She even dared bring her down here.
15:07I... I can't face him now.
15:10He'll see how old I've become.
15:12Trust me.
15:14Shhh.
15:22Isabella.
15:23You've suffered so much.
15:24Listen to me, just give me the seal.
15:26I brought special treatment.
15:28The doctors from the Principally Doctors will heal you.
15:31Sir Kevin.
15:32You seem to carry a strange perfume.
15:34Lady Isabella's body is hypersensitive now.
15:36Such sense would only harm her.
15:39Who is this peasant?
15:41Get her out of here!
15:42How dare her to speak in front of the Lords!
15:46Guards!
15:46Drag her away and beat her!
15:48What a claim.
15:50Let's see who dares to touch the nursemaid of the Thorns.
15:55Sir Kevin.
15:56The drugs you mentioned, its main ingredient is fly imagiba, am I right?
16:01A lethal hallucinogen.
16:04Did you want the seal?
16:05Or you want her to destroy herself in front of the public?
16:09Kevin.
16:10How dare you to plot such a thing on my sister, the Lady of the Thorn family!
16:16You...
16:17No!
16:18It's this peasant talking nonsense and trying to slander my noble name!
16:23Reynold!
16:24Is this how your house trains your servants?
16:27Elena Weiss.
16:29If you lie, I'll execute you myself.
16:31But if what you said is true...
16:33Kevin.
16:35You won't walk out of this castle alive.
16:40You!
16:41You people!
16:48Now you Thorn is surrounded!
16:52Isabella!
16:53Give me the seal now, and I might let the rest of you live.
16:59If not, don't blame me for what comes next!
17:09Reynold.
17:10You really think the House of Thorns still stands in where it was three years ago?
17:14The Duke's in bed.
17:16Your big brother's a thousand miles away.
17:19You're the only one left who can even hold a sword!
17:23Even if I'm the only one left, it'll still be enough to cut your filthy hands off.
17:28That old wound in your leg, you hide it well but you can't trick me.
17:31That leg's dead last winter, am I right?
17:33The Principality Physicians told me.
17:36How many rounds can you hold now?
17:39That leg's dead last winter, am I right?
17:41The Principality Physicians told me.
17:43How many rounds can you hold now?
17:47Sir Kevin.
17:49You said you brought physicians from the Principality to treat Lady Isabella.
17:53Where are they?
17:55You're still here.
17:56Reynold, leash your dog right!
17:58The Principality Physicians are probably waiting outside, aren't they?
18:02Because that so-called medicine you brought can't pass the security inspection.
18:09Flyamagera oil glows blue in sunlight.
18:13That blue stain on your cuff.
18:15You got that when you tried to touch Lady Isabella, right?
18:19Bullshit! That's dye from the fabric!
18:22Her Grace said you brought Principality Envoys to formally reclaim the diplomatic seal in the name of a marital alliance.
18:28So where are their badges?
18:31Principality Envoys wear embroidered golden iris on their cuffs.
18:34These men, they don't have any.
18:36So who are they?
18:38They haven't got the chance to wear it yet after all the traveling.
18:41Sir Kevin.
18:43You forged Envoys credentials.
18:45You brought mercenaries to surround House Thorn.
18:47And none of this is about the seal.
18:50It's about the letter you've hidden for three years.
18:53The one you wrote to the Mark K from the Principacy.
18:57You promised him the Thorn's border defense maps as the betrothal present.
19:01What letter?
19:03You, how could you know that? That letter was-
19:05Hidden.
19:06By Lady Isabella.
19:08She loved you once, but she's wise and cautious.
19:11She hide that letter inside the Principacy's herbal compound in.
19:14The book still sits on the shelf of the North Tower.
19:17Seize that woman and cut her tongue!
19:19Kevin!
19:20You brought soldiers to my home.
19:22You forged Envoys.
19:25You tried to poison my sister.
19:27And now you lay a hand on my people.
19:32Seize them!
19:33All of them, seize them now!
19:36So what?
19:37You'll still need to give me everything!
19:44Who dares raise a hand against House Thorn?
19:49The seal will stay here, because Sir Kevin's little visit is not authorized by the Principality Council.
19:58Al Algemin!
20:00What are you doing here?
20:02This is the official reply from the Principality Council.
20:06Sir Kevin has been stripped of his nightshed for forging diplomatic documents
20:11and unlawfully mobilizing the border garrison.
20:15His soldiers are merely mercenaries he bought and have nothing to do with the Principality.
20:20Reynolds, you did well, my boy.
20:24Do you still have anything to say?
20:26Isabella!
20:28They forced me to do this!
20:30The Council threatened me with my mother!
20:31I never meant to harm you!
20:33Forgive me!
20:33We can start over again!
20:35Please!
20:42Isabella!
20:43Three years!
20:44I waited for three years!
20:46But what I got in return are poison and mercenaries!
20:51Isabella!
20:52Kevin Howard!
20:53You don't deserve anything from the Thorns, nor anything from me!
20:58I will return the seal to the Principality Council myself, as the eldest daughter of the House of Four.
21:04Not as your fiancé.
21:09How did you know about that letter?
21:11The one he wrote three years ago?
21:12From the Principality Herbal Compendius on the North Tower shelf.
21:15On page 312, there's a sheet of paper tucked inside.
21:19Lady Isabella's eyes went red every time she turned to that page.
21:22I studied forensics in the medical school.
21:25The wrinkles on that paper, it's folded again and again.
21:27A woman drowning herself in hatred wouldn't re-read a letter like that.
21:31You really do check into everything.
21:33Lord Reynolds, I told you before, I came to save, not to harm.
21:37It's just luck.
21:39I finally found my place in this horrifying apartment.
21:47You are definitely easier to get along with than your uncle.
21:51Miss Elena, Mrs. Fletchering says Lady Isabella wants to see you at the North Tower.
21:56I'll watch Julian.
22:04Lady Isabella, sit.
22:07That letter, I hid it for three years.
22:10I thought I'd forgotten it long ago.
22:12We've convinced ourselves to forget someone.
22:16But the body still remembers.
22:19Those eyes of yours are terrifying.
22:22Last night, I burned the letter in front of my brothers.
22:26You burned it?
22:28He was right.
22:30I don't need a letter to prove anything.
22:33I'll return the Principelli seal myself.
22:36And I'll be in charge of the diplomatic affairs again.
22:39The Empire's youngest diplomat would not deserve to be poisoned to death by just a cup of Flyamera tea.
22:46That'll be pathetic.
22:51Lady Isabella, I can't, Elena.
22:53I do need to thank you.
22:54From now on, we're friends.
22:56Would you?
22:57Of course, my lady.
23:01You're running so fast, someone chasing you?
23:04Lord Rennard.
23:05My mother wants you at dinner tomorrow night.
23:07My brother Algerman will be there too.
23:09Me?
23:09Yes.
23:10For the first time in ten years.
23:11The House of the Thorn will ever invite a nursemaid who's only been here for three days to the family
23:15table.
23:16And dressed properly.
23:17Don't show up in linens again.
23:23Mother, wait for me. Just a little longer.
23:38Mother, wait for me. Just a little longer.
23:48Don't show up with women as if they're disposable.
23:51What a little maid.
23:52You got a pretty face, don't you?
24:00Very nice.
24:01You really do get something under this linen.
24:03You're definitely qualified to sick my duck.
24:06Lord Ethan!
24:08Let me go.
24:09I'm Lady Isabella's nursemaid. Keep your hands off me.
24:12Nursemaid, huh?
24:13You climbed your way up into the Thorn family.
24:16Just to spread your legs for us, don't you?
24:19Don't act like you know nothing.
24:21Get off me! Don't touch me!
24:24I was just turned on. Don't be so disappointed.
24:33You filthy peasant! You dare to bite me!
24:41You peasant! I'll throw you in the snake pit and let those vipers gnaw on your bones.
24:53You hurt me? Then let your body pay for it!
24:58You filthy whore. You'll spread for me anyway.
25:05I'll take good care of you.
25:07Lord Ethan, I'd suggest you look at your own neck.
25:15That's your caradiate artery a centimeter in.
25:17It'll only take a tenth of a second to sever it.
25:19You'd kill a son of Thorn family?
25:21Lord Ethan, I'm just a nursemaid.
25:23I want to do my work and earn my money here.
25:26Nothing more. Now please let me leave.
25:27And if I say no, would you really do it?
25:30Then I'd rather die than let you touch me.
25:33Don't you think it's a better idea to serve me than a mewling infant?
25:36How much a nursemaid-maker do you think that helping Isabella would buy you a permanent spot in this house?
25:41That's my business, sir. Needless for you to care.
25:46Interesting. This is even more stimulating.
25:51Next time, you won't be so lucky.
26:04My lady. Your grace. Lord Algena. Lord Reynold.
26:09Come. Sit here.
26:15I heard everything. You really helped Isabella this time.
26:20Your grace, I can't. This is too much. I truly appreciate it.
26:24But this, I can't accept it.
26:28That bracelet Lady Isabella gave me earlier.
26:31Elena, what are you-
26:32First of all, I helped Lady Isabella because I wanted to.
26:35Second, I am paid with a hundred gold coins a month.
26:40It is my responsibility to take care of the domestic chores in this household.
26:45Third of all, please forgive me for this.
26:47To be frankly, I have no taste for jewelry.
26:49What a wise child with a clear mind.
26:52This is on me.
26:53Let me give you some golden coins then.
26:55If you need anything at home, please tell us.
26:57You saved our family.
26:58Yes, Elena. Just tell us, otherwise we'll feel we've short you forever.
27:02Truly, you've given me more than enough already.
27:06If you truly wish to reward me, may I sleep in the little master's chamber at night.
27:11Is this woman playing again?
27:12So I can take care of him anytime.
27:14Just a mattress on the floor.
27:16I'll be quiet. I won't wake him up, I swear.
27:18If I sleep in the nursery, that horny Ethan can't corner me again.
27:27Sure, no problem. Let's do it.
27:29Have a bed set up in Julian's chamber.
27:31Yes, my lady.
27:33I really don't need that much, my lady.
27:35Proper bedding.
27:37Goose down.
27:37Vulva cover it.
27:39I'm just a nursemaid.
27:40This is too expensive.
27:41It's nothing.
27:43Compared to what you did for me, it's nothing at all.
27:46Elena refuses our reward and you actually plan to give her nothing?
27:50No wonder that fool Kevin had you weeping for years.
27:53Fletcher, tell our accountant to send 300 gold coins.
27:56Your grace, that's far too much!
27:58You've brought Isabella back to sanity.
28:00You saved the heir of the thorn.
28:02Do you truly believe saving the blood of the thorn is worth less than 300 gold coins?
28:06I wouldn't dare.
28:07Fletcher, announce it across the household.
28:09In three days we'll hold a feast to celebrate Lady Isabella's recovery and her return to diplomatic affairs.
28:14And I'll formally introduce Elena as this family's guardian.
28:17Yes.
28:18I'll bring the finest dressmakers and Elena will get the full treatment.
28:21I don't need any of that.
28:23This linen works just fine.
28:24And according to the code of servants, clause three, a servant's dress stays within her station.
28:29Forget about those rules.
28:31You saved me.
28:32I'm inviting half the oligarchs to this feast and you, my dearest friend, will stand beside me.
28:37Then, as my lady wishes.
28:47That's the wife of my second uncle.
28:49She seems nice on the surface.
29:00That's the wife of my third uncle.
29:02They're so obstantatious.
29:04And her little monster.
29:06She's only seven years old.
29:07And she stabbed her.
29:08Even the children in this house are monsters?
29:11My daughter is thinking about choosing a Black Hawk heir from their generation.
29:15We share the name, but it's actually three different families.
29:18Elena, don't get pulled in.
29:20I'll be careful.
29:23Mother sent me to check on you.
29:25You're just recovered.
29:26Don't stand so long.
29:28Actually, Lord Algum has asked about your condition three times in the council.
29:31Fletcher.
29:32So Lord Algum is the biggest support of Lady Isabella and her family.
29:37Come.
29:38Let's get you some air on the terrace.
29:41Well, look at that.
29:43Our First Lady finally crawls out of that North Tower.
29:50Wow.
29:50Isn't this the little nursemaid who ran away from her?
29:53Oh, shoot.
30:02Oops.
30:03That's on me.
30:04Seems like this pretty silk doesn't suit a maid after all.
30:09You belong to that rough linen.
30:12The lounge is right there.
30:14I've got a silk robe there perfect enough to cover yours.
30:17Come with me.
30:19Thank you, Lord Ethan.
30:21I can handle it myself.
30:23Handle?
30:24How?
30:25How?
30:26Wearing this to the banquet.
30:27Let our whole family see Thorn's precious new guardian looking like a cheap joke?
30:33Just come, little maid.
30:35You don't have a choice.
30:43Lord Remmerd, Lord Ethan's getting more reckless this day.
30:47I know, but I want to see how much she can take before she breaks.
30:51Like I said, Lord Ethan, I'll handle it myself.
30:54Where is Elena?
30:55Lady Isabella wants her on the podium right now.
30:57Where did she go?
31:00They're calling you up, little maid.
31:02Looks like you really don't have a choice now.
31:04So now you even have the mood for flowers?
31:08Well, thank you for the coloring, Lord Ethan.
31:10I start to appreciate this rose design now.
31:12What about flowers?
31:13That's boring.
31:14I want to bend her spine and watch her kneeling in front of me.
31:17That's a game worth playing.
31:21She turned a wine stain into a fashion stigment.
31:24Elena is smart.
31:26Tools should be smart and sharp.
31:28Thank you all for coming.
31:30After long days of darkness, I'm finally here again.
31:34Thank you, Father, for giving me the courage to return.
31:37Mother, thank you for guarding the North Tower day and night.
31:40And to all of you for taking care of and supporting me.
31:46But tonight, the person I need to thank the most is Elena Weiss.
31:53She saw through every fragile piece of me I tried to hide.
31:56She pulled me back from the edge of the abyss.
31:58From this day forward, Elena Wiles is not just the nursemaid of House Thorn.
32:03She is my sister for life and death.
32:05Is she insane?
32:06Taking a peasant nursemaid to stand beside the daughter of House Thorn?
32:10This is degradation!
32:11Isabella, you are using the honor of the Thorn bloodline to raise a peasant like her?
32:15Have you ever considered your family?
32:19Isabella, honestly messing up with peasants like her would only prove that you haven't cleared your mind from the North
32:24Tower.
32:25That's right.
32:26A mage shall never sit in the same place as I do.
32:34My lady, you really don't have to emphasize anything.
32:37I'm just a nurse of Jade.
32:39I just happened to be there when you needed someone.
32:42You climbed out of that darkness on your own strength.
32:46Elena.
32:51I do not dare to claim as the sister, but I'll do the job I was hired to do.
32:57At least she knows her place.
32:59Within only two sentences, she solved the crisis.
33:03That girl is smart.
33:06Elena's clever.
33:07One sentence and even Lady Lu had nothing left to spit.
33:11The real show hasn't started yet.
33:17My lord, what else is coming?
33:21I already had my word.
33:23Elena Weiss is my sister.
33:26A nursemaid like that is now the lady's sister overnight.
33:29The skill.
33:30The sheer maneuvering.
33:32I'm impressed.
33:33So capable.
33:34Fixes Lady Isabella's messes.
33:36Straightens out the Knight Commander's household drama.
33:38Perfect timing, really.
33:39My useless little daughter arrives home from school today.
33:42You can take charge of her.
33:43Five days.
33:44When the Lord's Council wraps, I'll come collect.
33:47What?
33:48You want Elena to take care of that little demon?
33:54What's wrong, Isabella?
33:56Didn't you just call her your sworn sister?
33:58Sisters share the family burdens, don't they?
34:00Carter.
34:01Sarah's eight years old and she's burned through 14 tutors.
34:03She set the Duke's own beard on fire.
34:05You're sending Elena in there to get destroyed.
34:07She saved a choking infant.
34:09She pulled you out of your breakdown.
34:12Surely one little girl is nothing.
34:14Your Grace, didn't you want to praise her?
34:16Or would you rather watch the Thorn blood rot from the inside?
34:20Carter!
34:21Forget it!
34:22Sarah is...
34:23Elena!
34:26I'm no daughter of House Thorn.
34:28I only wish to serve Lady Isabella.
34:30But if Lady Carter places such trust in me,
34:33I'll do what I can for Lady Sarah.
34:35Good!
34:36Those are your words.
34:37Tomorrow I'll deliver Sarah to the castle!
34:40Are you insane?
34:41Sarah isn't naughty.
34:42She's ill.
34:43She bites anyone who gets close.
34:44She chewed straight through Ethan's hand once.
34:47What's this, Isabella?
34:48Even your own nursemaid agreed.
34:50Why are you still blocking?
34:53You...
34:53Elena.
34:54Trust me, my lady.
34:56Carter wants to use this child to shatter Lady Isabella's standing.
34:59If I flinch, everything Isabella just rebuilt collapsed in a heartbeat.
35:03Not just for Mother.
35:04For the Lady and the Duchess who've shown me real kindness.
35:06I can't say no.
35:07At least you know your place.
35:12I'll be waiting, little maid.
35:14When you come crawling.
35:17Elena.
35:19Sarah isn't that easy.
35:20Guard yourself.
35:21Please.
35:22Yes, child.
35:24If danger comes, don't be proud.
35:26Come to us immediately.
35:27I understand.
35:29Thank you, Your Grace.
35:30My lady.
35:31Elena.
35:32Do you realize what you just accepted?
35:35And the mess it drops on all of us?
35:37Father!
35:38I thought you were smarter than this.
35:40Turns out you're just another fool running towards a blade.
35:43You think I'm already beaten, my lord?
35:45Sarah's violent.
35:46Unhinged.
35:47Everyone who enters that room comes out bleeding.
35:48If you're so eager to die, stock up on bandages.
35:50Thank you for the concern, Lord Reynold.
35:53Concern?
35:53I just don't want your corpse to embarrass us.
35:58Lady.
35:59Lady Sarah is inside.
36:01You go in yourself.
36:03Feels worse than facing Lady Isabella.
36:05And that was already a nightmare.
36:07What kind of terror is Sarah thought?
36:15You monsters!
36:17Always forcing me into corsets in these cursed palace manners.
36:21Other girls ride horses in the meadows.
36:23Why can't I?
36:25Will skipping etiquette classes kill me?
36:27Get out!
36:28My lady.
36:29Her ladyship only wants what's best for you.
36:31Please endure it.
36:32You'll marry into the royal family one day.
36:35These rules-
36:36Shut up!
36:37Shut and endure it!
36:38That's all any of you say!
36:42I've endured since I was six.
36:44Six years!
36:45Isn't that enough?
36:47Where were you when the corset cut off my breath?
36:50Where were you when my feet blistered raw?
36:52What's best for me?
36:54Then stop treating me like a trained dog!
36:58Lady Sarah.
36:59Who are you?
37:00Who sent you?
37:01I'm Elena Wise.
37:02Lady Isabella's nursemaid.
37:04Isabella's nursemaid.
37:05What are you doing here?
37:07Get out!
37:08Get lost!
37:09Leave me alone!
37:11My lady, please-
37:12You dodged!
37:13You're a servant!
37:14You don't get to dodge!
37:17Now you know who you're dealing with.
37:19Should've stayed still.
37:21Serves you right!
37:29Already had a taste of the little monster?
37:31Regrets forming?
37:32None.
37:33If I backed down, Lady Isabella and her Grace would be the ones bleeding next.
37:36She's a child.
37:37A child who's been twisted by everyone around her.
37:40She needs someone to pull her back.
37:41I want to try.
37:42You think your little tricks can tame a demon?
37:45Naive.
37:45Not naive.
37:46I just refuse to watch a child rot inside her own childhood.
37:49The way I once did.
37:51The way my mother suffered for me.
37:54Elena!
37:56Elena!
37:56No money and you steal fever medicine?
37:59I'll beat you to death, you thieving rat!
38:02My daughter's burning up!
38:04She's dying!
38:06Sir, count this as a debt.
38:09I'll work like an animal to repay you.
38:12Please!
38:12My mother chose the ugliest path to save me.
38:15If someone had only reached out and showed her another way,
38:18any way besides stealing,
38:20maybe our lives wouldn't have turned to ruin.
38:22Take her to the physician's tower.
38:23Top grade medicine.
38:24Yes.
38:25I just don't want Isabelle upset.
38:27Nothing more.
38:32Well, well.
38:33Our sweet, stubborn little nursemaid.
38:35All banged up, are we?
38:43Little maid.
38:44All you have to do is crawl into my bed and you'd never suffer like this again.
38:48Tempting, no?
38:49Or I can find ways to make Isabella hand you over to me herself.
38:52Plenty of ways.
38:53Lord Ethan's kindness is noted.
38:54I prefer to earn my coin queen.
38:56Go on.
38:57Guess.
38:58Where will you be bleeding from next time?
39:01And guess what happens after that?
39:03How Lady Carter will rip into you?
39:05How the Duke will throw you out on the street?
39:07That's none of your concern.
39:09Lord Ethan.
39:11I gave you a chance.
39:13Do not test my patience again.
39:15My apologies, Lord Ethan.
39:18Ah! You!
39:21Lord Ethan should get that looked at.
39:23Wouldn't want a head injury to go untreated.
39:25You filthy bitch!
39:27I'll make you beg for death!
39:29Normal discipline won't reach Sarah.
39:31If I'm going to pull her out of that spiral, I need something else.
39:34Something she's never seen before.
39:39When she goes in and she can't hurt.
39:49That's the end.
39:51That's her plan for!
39:52I'm sorry for your injury to the end?
40:03You've got a hell of a window.
40:04It's too high. The wind is too strong. Please come down talk. We have nothing to talk about
40:13All you do is push and push and push
40:17Until I'm nothing but a puppet that curtsies on command. Well, well the little demons finally going all the way
40:27You dare pull this stunt
40:37I spent thousands in gold on the finest of your masters in the capital and you're up here threatening to
40:43end yourself
40:44Is this how you repay me for my own good?
40:49The only thing you care about is your power game. I'm telling you now
40:53Even if you jump I'll have them carry your body straight to the etiquette master your life is mine
40:58And you will limit by my rule
41:00No, I'll make all of you sorry
41:04The nobles will not make house for a century
41:07Sarah
41:09Wait! Don't jump
41:14Don't jump
41:14Don't jump
41:15Lady Sarah, I can help you
41:17A servant help me? Get out of my sight
41:20Lady Carter, let her skip her etiquette. Just two days
41:23Skip lessons
41:23Do you have any idea how much those masters cost?
41:26What is this woman doing?
41:27The wasted fees alone are more than a nursemaid like you will earn in a lifetime
41:31Sarah
41:32Get down this instant
41:33The instructor is already on his way
41:35Do not humiliate me further
41:36Two days
41:37Just two days
41:38After that I swear she'll beg to return to her lessons
41:40You? You think you can solve everything?
41:42You actually believe you're some kind of savior now?
41:45Lady Carter
41:46Do you really want to risk losing her?
41:49Two days is nothing
41:50Let me try
41:52Lady Carter
41:56Fine, let's see what magic a gutter maid can condor
41:58Two days
41:59If you fail
42:00I fail and two days dismiss me
42:01Punish me
42:02Whatever Lady Carter decree
42:03But no matter what I do
42:04For those two days do not interfere
42:05I'm genuinely curious how you'll tame a demon in 48 hours
42:08Fine
42:09When this collapses
42:10Let's see how you talk your way out
42:12Lady Sarah
42:13Come down
42:14I'll show you what real life feels like
42:16You mean it?
42:17I mean it
42:18But there's one rule
42:19Not a single phone gold coin
42:20No titles
42:21We work for everything we get
42:23Easy
42:24I don't need house thrown
42:25I'll thrive out there better than anyone
42:31Father
42:32Reckless woman
42:33You barely survived the last disaster
42:35And you still haven't learned?
42:36You think your little tricks can tame her?
42:38Lord Renard
42:39If Sarah fails
42:40Lady Carter will destroy me anyway
42:42And all of you along with me
42:43So let me try
42:45If I fail
42:47I'll return every coin
42:48And accept whatever punishment Lady Carter decrees
42:52None of you will be touched by it
42:53You
42:55This woman
42:55She'd stake every last thing she has just to wade into this mess
42:59Is she stupid or just that sure of herself?
43:02Mother
43:03Elena doesn't make empty promises
43:04If she says she has a way, she has her way
43:07Elena
43:08Do what you must
43:09Whatever happens
43:10Our branch of this family stands behind you
43:12Thank you, your grace
43:13Remember what you just said
43:15Don't regret your bravery two days later
43:17I won't save you
43:21That windbag peasant
43:24Humiliating me in front of the entire house
43:27Ethan
43:27Put your people on her
43:29I want to know every move she makes
43:31Done mother
43:35Is this made of thorns?
43:36It's stabbing me everywhere
43:38What are you doing?
43:39Give those back
43:40Those are mine for emergencies
43:42Lady Sarah
43:43Gold coins make you a noble playing dress up
43:46Not surviving
43:47We agreed
43:48Not one thorn coin
43:50Fine
43:50Keep them
43:52Who needs money anyway?
43:58Come Lady Sarah
43:59What is this place?
44:01Even the air is rotting
44:08Wine
44:18It's mine
44:18Servant! I want that! Get it for me now!
44:21Lady Sarah
44:22We have no family money
44:24We have nothing
44:26If you want to eat
44:27You work
44:28Peasant, I'll take over this washing
44:30One meal is payment
44:31Sure boss
44:32What about you cleaning this up
44:33And I'll give you coins
44:34Ah! It's freezing!
44:36What is in this water?
44:37Lady Sarah
44:38If we don't earn coin today
44:40We don't eat tonight
44:42Clumsy waste!
44:43Can't even hold a plate
44:45And you come here boasting?
44:45Get lost!
44:46Don't smash up my livelihood
44:48Work that brutal
44:49For two coffers
44:50I used to smash crystal goblets
44:52That cost a hundred gold
44:53Just because the water was too warm
44:55Here earning two coins is this hard
44:57I can't walk anymore
44:58My feet are killing me
45:02I'm so hungry
45:03Just a little longer Lady Sarah
45:05We find work
45:06We get coin
45:06When we eat
45:07You said you wanted to sit with common folks
45:09Drink and laugh
45:10That's almost ours
45:11Fine
45:11Fine
45:12Lead on
45:14It's not the castle
45:15But I suppose it's tolerable
45:16No
45:17We're working
45:19Sir
45:19Do you have any work for us?
45:21Anything at all
45:21Please
45:22Just a chance
45:23You know how to cook
45:24Keep books
45:25Or fix wagons?
45:26No
45:27No skills
45:28So you're here begging?
45:30We work hard
45:32Dirt
45:33Filth
45:34Anything
45:34Just a meal in return
45:35Give us a chance
45:36Please
45:41Latron's out back
45:42Guest chamber pots
45:43Scrub them all
45:44Three copper coins
45:45Thank you so much
45:46We'll do a good job
45:47Come Lady Sarah
45:49Who wants this miserable work?
45:51No need to thank him
46:01Come on Lady Sarah
46:02We've finished this
46:04We eat
46:04I'm done
46:07Fermented waste produces concentrated hydrogen sulfide
46:11It breeds lethal intestinal parasites
46:13We don't scrub this off
46:15The manager docks our pay
46:16Three cops gone
46:17Which means tonight
46:18We fight stray dogs for the driest spot under a bridge
46:21Get that away from me
46:22It's disgusting
46:23Get it away
46:23Take it
46:24I'll handle the latrine pit
46:25You scrub these pots
46:26You want to eat?
46:28Then your hands go in other people's filth
46:29This is the real world without the thorn name
46:31No
46:31I won't touch that filth
46:33No way
46:36Get it away
46:37I want to go back
46:38I want my silk dresses
46:39I want my lessons
46:40I never want to smell this again
46:45What has that peasant done with my Sarah?
46:48Lady Carter
46:48Elena Weiss took Lady Sarah to the lower ward
46:51To the Golden Lion Inn
46:52They...
46:53They washed plates
46:54And scrubbed the latrine pit
46:55And emptied chamber pots
46:56What?
46:57My Sarah
46:58The future royal bride
47:00That gutter peasant made her wash plates
47:02And scrubbed chamber pots
47:03That bitch
47:04I'll kill her
47:04I'll have her hanged
47:05She's thrown our dignity into a latrine pit
47:07Go
47:08To the Great Hall
47:09I will not let this stand
47:10Sister-in-law
47:11Your precious nursemaid
47:14Took my high-born daughter
47:16To scrub chamber pots in a lower ward inn
47:18Oh god
47:19She must have suffered so much
47:21You
47:21Are you trying to turn us into the laughing stock
47:23Of the entire capital?
47:25As that peasant sets foot in this castle
47:27I'll have her hanged
47:28Carter
47:29You agreed to let Elena use any method
47:31I didn't agree to this
47:32She must die
47:39Mother
47:45Mother
47:45Mother
47:46I want to study etiquette
47:47I want the corset
47:49I'll never throw tantrums again
47:51No more washing plates
47:52No more chamber pots
47:53Let's go of me
47:55I am noble Lady Sarasora
47:59Mother
48:01Mother
48:02You called me mother
48:04Mother, schedule my lessons
48:06Anything but plates and chamber pots
48:08Of course
48:09Take her, get her cleaned up
48:10Now
48:15I think we've proven Elena's approach works
48:19Lady Carter
48:20I held up my end
48:21Yes
48:22Fine
48:23Noted
48:26Eureka
48:27Go wash
48:30Elena
48:31You tamed the little demon
48:33Even Reynold couldn't do that
48:36How?
48:36It wasn't magic
48:38Sarah's heart was never bad
48:39She just
48:40Lack of guidance
48:41Whatever
48:43Elena
48:44Thank you
48:45Come on
48:46Bath first
48:46Celebrating later
48:53My lady
48:54Today
48:55Shall I lace tightly?
48:57Tight
48:57Standard royal width
49:00Compared to the lower ward
49:02This tightness is a blessing
49:03Do it
49:15I'm up, I'm going to lessons
49:21You're ready Lady Sarah
49:23Of course
49:24I'm Sarah Soren
49:27Have you ever wondered my lady
49:29Why your mother pushed you so hard?
49:32Even when it made you hate her?
49:34She was terrified Sarah
49:36Terrified you'd end up like the people in the lower ward
49:38I...
49:39I see
49:41I'll study hard
49:42Every lesson
49:43Every rule
49:51A miracle
49:53Yesterday she was trying to bite my hand off
50:02Is that really my Sarah?
50:04She's actually
50:05She's doing it
50:06No screaming
50:07No violence
50:08She's really doing it
50:11Elena
50:12I never imagined Sarah could sit through a single lesson so extraordinary of you
50:21It wasn't magic
50:22It wasn't magic Lady Carter
50:22It was Sarah's own grit
50:24In the lower yard she scrubbed plates until her hands were raw and purple from cold
50:29She got shoved in the mud and picked herself up
50:32She endured it all
50:33She... she was that strong?
50:35She was
50:37Do you know why she'd rather scrub plates in freezing water than bow her head to you?
50:40Because she's rebellious by nature?
50:42No
50:44Because the weight you put on her shoulders is crushing her
50:47She's the daughter of House Sornern
50:48She'll marry into the royal family
50:50If she doesn't master etiquette now she'll be mocked
50:52She's eight my lady
50:53While you made her memorize royal codes chasing goals even adults would buckle under
50:57Did you ever stop to feel her fear?
50:59Her helplessness?
51:00You only saw her burn the duke's beard
51:02Since she was so terrified of failing you that she'd rather destroy herself
51:05Yes, she's only eight
51:07Etiquette and theology matter
51:09But children need freedom too
51:10Understood
51:11From today no more late night theology
51:13Sword monthsmanship cut in half
51:15Lady Sarah will feel your mercy
51:16Elena!
51:17You're not just a nurser maid, you're a treasure!
51:20Come with me
51:20Whatever the Duchess pays you I'll double
51:23Sarah's education is yours
51:25Anyone questions you I'll cut their tongue out
51:27Carter!
51:28You overstep yourself
51:35Carter!
51:37Elena serves Ibella and Julian
51:39They cannot spare her
51:40Sister-in-law this is for Sarah
51:42For the future of House Sornern
51:44Talent like hers is wasted in a nursery
51:47Elena don't listen to her
51:49We need you
51:50You're my family forever
51:51Family? Empty promises
51:53Elena you came to House Sornern for money
51:55They offer a hundred gold I'll make it one hundred
51:57One fifty
51:57Two hundred!
51:59Double the pay
52:00Half the hours
52:01I keep my word
52:04Lady Carter your kindness honors me
52:06Her grace and Lady Isabella gave me a chance when I had nothing
52:08Until my contract ends
52:10Julian
52:11Stubborn little thing
52:12Fine if that's your decision I won't force it
52:15But since Sarah needs her we're moving back into the castle
52:17Tomorrow
52:18Moving back?
52:19Of course
52:20For Sarah's education
52:21This house belongs to us too
52:23You!
52:24Elena
52:24When you have spare moments from Julian
52:26Do spend them on Sarah
52:29The two hundred gold still stands
52:32Elena
52:33Your loyalty is rare and precious
52:36Elena I have a gift for you too
52:41My lady I
52:42Elena you've earned this
52:44Accept it
52:50My lady this is too much
52:52I'm just a nursemaid I have no use for these
52:54Take them
52:56You're a fine young woman Elena
52:58But you think you don't deserve beautiful things
53:01In this house your worth far exceeds all of this
53:06Five hundred gold for your skill and your goodness
53:10Five hundred your grace that's too much
53:12You saved Julie and Sarah you deserve it
53:15Do you expect me to sleep with a nursemaid's unpaid debt on my conscience?
53:19Thank you your grace thank you my lady
53:21My lord it's confirmed Elena Wise came from the slums
53:25Dropped out of St. Luke's medical academy
53:26She joined house sauna to pay for her mother's elixir of life
53:29Her current residence
53:30A leaky attic
53:31Less than ten square meters
53:32The walls are rotten
53:34Neighbors say she studies nursing modules late into night
53:36While massaging her mother's atatrophied legs
53:39Silver pine villa
53:40It's still unused isn't it?
53:42My lord that's your private retreat
53:44It's worth more than ten thousand gold
53:46Transfer the deed to her
53:47Bring it to me
53:48Yes my lord
53:57Miss Elena
53:58As Lord Renard's orders from today onward
54:01This belongs to you
54:03Silver pine villa
54:04What is this?
54:06Lord Renard's private estates
54:07He said it means to cover for what he did earlier
54:10Of wounding you
54:11And a reward for saving Lady Sarah
54:13I can't accept this
54:15I've finished my duty
54:16If you have any questions
54:18Please go to Lord Renard himself
54:24You got it?
54:25The villa staffs will report tomorrow
54:27Lord Renald, I cannot keep this
54:31What, this is not enough?
54:32You want more?
54:33No my lord, you've already given me too much
54:35And I've purchased a small cottage with a garden on the far northern border
54:38Where my contract ends and my mother is healed
54:41I'll take her there, away from the capital
54:42Our own life
54:44Those wastelands
54:45You'd turn your back on wealth and comfort to become a farmer?
54:48Fine, suit yourself
54:49Thank you for your understanding
54:55Elena!
54:56The elixir of life, use it now
54:58It is, it's the elixir
55:07Elena, Elena, Mother, I'm here
55:11She survived House of Throne
55:13And even brought back the water of elixir
55:16What a miracle
55:20Elena!
55:22Must you really go?
55:24There's always a place for you with us
55:26Lady Isabella, your grace
55:28Thank you for everything
55:30You taught me that kindness and skill matter more than anything
55:33Elena, you saved the little master and Sarah
55:37We owe you this
55:39Just take it
55:40Herb's for your mother's recovery
55:42Don't say no to me, it's from a friend
55:44Thank you, my lady
55:46Elena, come back and see us
55:48The doors of Aulis Sorum will always be open to you
56:07In that castle, I practiced the art of healing
56:10And earned respect that crossed every class line
56:14Ahead lies freedom
56:16A new life
56:17In that castle, I practiced the art of healing
56:18I taught you how to find a skill
56:18I taught you how to find a skill
