00:21Who exactly is this man who appears so frequently in my dreams?
00:31Oh, my God.
01:15What the?
01:22Hey, kid?
01:26Sire.
01:32Me? You mean?
01:35You fell into the lake.
01:38What? No. I jumped in. A child was...
01:42You fell. Quincy pulled you out.
01:48Where am I?
01:50The cave.
01:52Right. The cave. Are there adults?
01:57Alpha went hunting.
02:00Who is Alpha?
02:02Matthew. Your mate.
02:10My what?
02:12Mate. The kind who joined.
02:19Join? Him and me?
02:23That's why I was born.
02:27Born from...
02:28Your belly. All cubs come from their sire.
02:37Men, give birth here?
03:05This isn't my body.
03:07My sire?
03:16What are we to each other, exactly?
03:20You are my sire.
03:22And sire means?
03:24You gave birth to me.
03:2720 years single. Barely touched a woman.
03:30Now I have a son.
03:36One thing at a time.
03:40This alpha. Matthew.
03:44Matthew. What is he?
03:46A black panther.
03:47The strongest theremin in the tribe.
03:50Theremin.
03:51That means...
03:53We shift.
03:54Into beasts.
03:56And I'm a...
03:57Lennox.
03:58Silver gray.
04:00Fluffy tail.
04:10A lynx gave birth...
04:12Birth to a panther cub, of course.
04:14Makes perfect sense.
04:29Do you hate me?
04:31No.
04:33The previous owner of this body hurt this child badly.
04:37I won't hurt you.
04:38I swear it.
04:44Where's Matthew now?
04:46Far hunting.
04:47Won't return for many days.
04:49Good.
04:49I can't face a husband right now.
04:51Not when I don't even know this body.
04:56What was I?
04:57Before I fell?
04:59You had a temper.
05:01A bad one?
05:08Right.
05:09Great.
05:10I was a monster.
05:18No wonder the child is so frail.
05:21They probably have eaten a proper meal.
05:25Jaden.
05:26Want to learn to trap?
05:37My grandpa taught me this.
05:40Simple snare.
05:41Step here.
05:43The rope tightens.
05:44Traps the leg.
05:54We check them tomorrow.
05:57You never did this before.
06:05I'm not him.
06:06Not anymore.
06:08The concept of family had never existed in my life over the past two decades.
06:14But now that I have a child,
06:16this unexpected reality doesn't seem so unpleasant after all.
06:38Two days' food.
06:40We did it.
06:41We did it.
06:43Sire seems to have really changed.
06:45He's never been this gentle with me before.
07:05Maybe having a son isn't so bad.
07:10Sire, thank you.
07:33Zachary, are you feeling better?
07:37You are...
07:40This is Quincy.
07:42He pulled you from the lake.
07:44My sire hit his head.
07:46He cannot remember things.
07:48Should I bring the shaman?
07:49No.
07:49Please.
07:50I feel better.
07:52And...
07:53Thank you for saving me.
07:55In the past, Zachary never thanked anyone.
08:00I brought some fruit.
08:02You and Jaden might need it.
08:07Where did you find these?
08:09The gathering groups go into the forest.
08:11Therians hunt.
08:13Subterians gather greens and fruit.
08:15Can I go next time?
08:18You want to gather?
08:23Then come with us tomorrow.
08:30Did your sire hit you?
08:33No.
08:35Really?
08:37Really.
08:39He cooked for me.
08:41Your scythe cooked?
08:43He made traps, too.
08:45No.
08:50Keep it.
08:52In case he changes back.
08:56I don't think he will.
09:08Mine.
09:21That was not my memory.
09:26Sire?
09:27Nothing.
09:28Go back to sleep.
09:35Does Matthew have golden eyes?
09:37Yes.
09:44Of course he does.
10:05Jaden?
10:06Jaden?
10:10Sire.
10:12Did I scare you?
10:16No.
10:17I was surprised.
10:19You do not like my beast form.
10:24I like it.
10:27You were terrifying for about one second.
10:32And then you were so cute.
10:46Taylor, come eat.
10:50I already ate.
10:58Then this is for your second stomach.
11:00Then this is for your second stomach.
11:07This is so good.
11:10You two have hunting practice today?
11:13Adult Therese, watch us.
11:15I will protect Jaden.
11:16I'm counting on you.
11:27I'm counting on you.
11:28Ready to gather?
11:30Lead the way.
11:40Ready to gather?
11:42Lead the way.
11:50I was popular.
11:53Not exactly.
11:54Why is my cave so far from everyone?
11:59You did not like being around the tribe.
12:02Matthew dug that cave for you near the edge.
12:05He dug me a home and I still made everyone hate me.
12:10Too far.
12:11Too rough.
12:12Do you expect me to live in a hole?
12:15You said you wanted distance from the tribe.
12:18Then make it better.
12:22These memories are truly heartbreaking.
12:25Quincy!
12:26Wait.
12:29Is Zachary coming with us?
12:32He lost memories after the lake.
12:35Maybe losing them is the best thing that ever happened to him.
12:42Fair.
12:44I'm Elias.
12:46You once threw a stone bowl near my head.
12:49Then I owe you an apology.
12:53That is new.
12:55Go.
12:59A head injury does not make a monster kind.
13:02Maybe not.
13:04But it can make him remember shame.
13:13Zachary.
13:14Come down.
13:16We can share.
13:19No.
13:20I need to learn.
13:35You really changed.
13:37That bad before?
13:39You hit Jaden.
13:40Insulted Matthew.
13:42Screamed at everyone.
13:43I was a monster.
13:45You are not that today.
13:49Then today has to count.
13:55Usually only winged therians get those.
13:59Find me a long branch.
14:01Strong.
14:02And vines.
14:04What are you making?
14:05A longer arm.
14:17That looks ugly.
14:22Ugly can work.
14:31It worked.
14:32You try.
14:33Do not yank.
14:35Twist.
14:48Can you show us?
14:50No trade.
14:51I will teach you.
14:58He is helping.
15:02He wants people to forget.
15:11They should not forget.
15:15But I can still do better today.
15:18Matthew will not be fooled.
15:22I am not doing this for Matthew.
15:29So, what kind of person is my partner, really?
15:39Tell me the truth.
15:41What was I like?
15:42Cruel.
15:42Proud.
15:43Always angry.
15:44You hit Jaden.
15:46You threw things.
15:47You made Matthew's cave a place no one wanted to enter.
15:51Was I always like that?
15:54No.
15:55When you first came, you were quiet.
15:58Sad, maybe.
15:59Not cruel.
16:01What changed?
16:04You became Matthew's mate.
16:07Did I want that?
16:13That is a no.
16:15You're alpha son, Wesley.
16:16You wanted to be your mate.
16:18Wesley?
16:19Wesley?
16:19Wesley?
16:19Wesley?
16:19So, then why Matthew?
16:21Your alpha was injured.
16:23Winter was close.
16:24The chief arranged protection.
16:28I don't know.
16:29I want her to be your man.
16:32I don't know.
16:34I want her to be your man.
16:36My man.
16:38You're a real man.
16:42This is a natural.
16:43You're a women party.
16:43I wanted to be your man.
16:45I think it's a natural.
16:46Well, no.
16:47I think it's like it.
16:49Yeah, that's the thing.
16:53I want you to be your man.
17:05Being woken up every day by the sound of Jaden scratching my paw
17:08has seemingly become a habit of mine.
17:24Do you do that every morning?
17:28Claws must stay ready.
17:31Good. So much breakfast.
17:44Jaden! Jaden! Hunting practice!
17:49Stay with the adults. Do not chase anything alone.
17:56If something feels wrong, run home.
17:59I protect Jaden.
18:01Good. Then protect yourself too. Come back safe.
18:18A runner came from the tribe before sunset.
18:21Jaden?
18:25Safe. The message was about Zachary. He fell into the lake.
18:29The runner also said Zachary woke different.
18:33Polite.
18:34Feeding Jaden.
18:57We return at dawn.
19:10Sire. Alpha is back.
19:13The husband.
19:14Right. Here we go.
19:20Where?
19:22The cave.
19:25He's waiting.
19:34You went gathering.
19:36I did.
19:38You never gather.
19:40Things change.
19:43Jaden says you hit your head.
19:46I did.
19:49You also cooked for him.
19:52He was hungry.
19:57Who are you?
20:01Your mate.
20:03Apparently.
20:11You haven't thrown anything.
20:15Disappointed?
20:17Curious.
20:20Jaden told me what I was.
20:23And?
20:25I'm not him anymore.
20:30The shaman says spirits can cross worlds.
20:37Are you still Zachary?
20:40I'm the one who fed your son.
20:44Our son.
20:46Our son.
20:48Yes.
20:49He smiled today when he talked about you.
20:54Is that bad?
20:57It's new.
21:07I'll sleep outside tonight.
21:10You don't trust me.
21:13I don't know you.
21:16I don't know you.
21:17I don't know you.
21:26I don't know you.
21:35Hmm.
21:44Hmm.
21:46You look different.
21:50I hit my head. Lost some memories.
21:55So I heard you also invented a tool.
22:01For gathering fruit.
22:04Useful. Very useful.
22:12Matthew, your mate seems changed.
22:17He is.
22:20For better or worse?
22:24Haven't decided yet.
22:30Fair answer.
22:33Keep me informed.
22:38Zachary, one more thing.
22:43Don't waste your second chance.
23:07Still don't trust me.
23:08Should I?
23:18The old me.
23:19What did I do to you?
23:22Screamed.
23:23Threw things.
23:25Called me a beast.
23:26And Jaden?
23:30You hit him.
23:32Often.
23:37Why did you stay?
23:39He's my cub.
23:40You're my mate.
23:42Duty.
23:43Not love.
23:47Love wasn't an option.
23:52I won't hit him.
23:53I won't hit you.
23:55I won't scream.
23:58Words are easy.
24:01Then watch.
24:12I'm watching.
24:23I'm watching.
24:26Zachary!
24:27Come spa!
24:29I'm sub-tharian.
24:31No claws.
24:33Then use a spear.
24:36Unless you're scared.
24:41Wait.
24:49I can't shift.
24:51But I know how to fight.
24:54Ready to bleed?
24:57Ready?
25:12Done.
25:22Where did you learn that?
25:25Different world.
25:32Chief.
25:34Tracks near the eastern pass.
25:36What kind?
25:38Wolf tribe.
25:40Ten.
25:41Maybe more.
25:44Raiders?
25:46Could be scouts.
25:47Testing our borders.
25:49They've been pushing closer for moons.
25:56I'll lead a patrol.
25:58Tonight.
25:59Wait.
26:01If they're testing, they want to fight.
26:03Don't give them one.
26:05What do you suggest?
26:07Show strength.
26:09Guard the pass.
26:11No blood unless they strike first.
26:15Do it.
26:18Do it.
26:36Tracks go east, fresh, spread out, silent.
26:45They slowed here.
26:49You can read Tracks.
26:52I can read Fear.
26:59Hold.
27:01They want us to strike first.
27:15They'll be back.
27:18Then we prepare.
27:21You think like a warrior.
27:23I think like someone who wants to live.
27:34Those are ugly drawings.
27:36They are uglier when they work.
27:40What are they?
27:41Defenses.
27:42Wolves are fast.
27:43So we make them run where we want.
27:49Where did you learn this?
27:51Where I came from, people had many ways to kill each other.
27:55Show me.
27:59Deeper.
28:00A wolf can jump shallow pits.
28:02Spikes angled inward.
28:04This is cruel.
28:05So is letting them reach your children.
28:14Your mate has changed.
28:17Yes.
28:19For the better.
28:23I am starting to believe it.
28:31Remind me never to make you angry.
28:34Too late.
28:35You already did.
28:42This is a funnel.
28:44You make enemies choose the narrow path.
28:47Then we bite them?
28:48Only if you must.
28:50First, you survive.
28:52Will the wolves come here?
28:54They may try.
28:58Fear is not weakness.
28:59Fear tells you to watch.
29:01I am not scared.
29:03Then you are not paying attention.
29:10Good.
29:11Again.
29:13If I get stronger, will Alpha stay home?
29:16Your Alpha fights because he loves this tribe.
29:19And us?
29:21Especially you.
29:24Enough training for today.
29:29You taught them to run.
29:31I taught them to come home.
29:44Stay behind me.
29:48If I do, I cannot see the left pit.
29:54Argue after we live.
30:01Hold!
30:10Left!
30:20Matthew!
30:25Your traps saved lives tonight.
30:27They will come back.
30:32And we will be ready.
30:34You fought well, mate.
30:36The cave may no longer be only a place to survive.
30:42Hold still.
30:45What is that?
30:50Shaman's mixture stops infection.
30:57You didn't run.
30:59You didn't run.
31:00Where would I go?
31:07He's being careful.
31:09With me.
31:15Jaden, come here.
31:22He's fine.
31:24Just scratches.
31:25You're bleeding.
31:27Wolves are rude.
31:29Didn't even introduce themselves.
31:38Sleep.
31:39You're leaving again.
31:39Both of you.
31:42You're leaving again?
31:46I'll be outside.
31:48Watching.
31:50Then watch from inside.
31:52It's cold.
31:54It's cold.
32:03Not trust yet.
32:05But something.
32:07Something's changing.
32:21Still playing the hero?
32:24Just getting water.
32:27Four wolves dead.
32:28You think that makes you special?
32:36What do you want, Corey?
32:44I want you to stop pretending.
32:48Pretending what?
32:50That you changed.
32:51That you're good now.
32:53That Matthew should look at you like that.
32:55I'm not pretending anything.
32:57You hit your cub.
32:59Screamed at your mate.
33:00Made everyone hate you.
33:01And now?
33:02Now I'm different.
33:04People don't change.
33:06Then I'm not people.
33:08Corey!
33:09Enough.
33:10Ask him, Matthew.
33:12Ask him what he really is.
33:14I already know.
33:19He's my mate.
33:27You didn't have to.
33:28Yes.
33:31I did.
33:37What are you building?
33:39Smokehouse.
33:40Preserves meat longer.
33:42Hang meat inside.
33:44Build small fire below.
33:46Smoke dries it out.
33:49Lasts for weeks.
33:50Weeks?
33:51Without spoiling?
33:53Weeks.
33:54Maybe longer.
33:57These good?
33:58Perfect.
34:02Show me how.
34:07You want to learn?
34:08I want to help.
34:12Stack stones there.
34:13Tight.
34:14No gaps for wind.
34:18Never seen Matthew build anything but weapons.
34:23Never seen Zachary teach anyone anything.
34:29He's not just watching anymore.
34:31He's staying.
34:36Can I help you?
34:38I've heard things.
34:40You drowned.
34:41You woke things.
34:42What different?
34:43You build things.
34:45You fight.
34:46You smile.
34:48Is that a crime?
34:50No.
34:51It's a mystery.
34:53The old Zachary had no skill with traps.
34:56No knowledge of smoke.
34:57No warmth for his cub.
35:01People change.
35:03Not like this.
35:05Where did you come from?
35:12The lake.
35:13I fell in.
35:15You came from somewhere else.
35:17Before the lake.
35:21Your mate is not your mate.
35:25What?
35:26The body is the same.
35:29The spirit is not.
35:31But this spirit.
35:33Is better.
35:36Are you going to ask?
35:40Do you want me to?
35:44Not yet.
35:47Then not yet.
35:53Elias told me something.
35:54About my old life.
35:55What did he say?
35:56I had family.
35:57A sire.
35:57An alpha.
35:58Someone named Wesley.
36:02Where are they now?
36:03Your sigh died.
36:04Two winters ago.
36:05Fever.
36:05And my alpha?
36:06His leg never healed.
36:07He couldn't hunt.
36:08Died the winter after.
36:10And Wesley?
36:12Wesley left.
36:13After you became my mate.
36:16Why?
36:19He was your alpha's son.
36:21He wanted to be your mate instead.
36:24I had a family.
36:25A life.
36:26People who loved me.
36:28And the old Zachary threw it all away.
36:30Where did he go?
36:32South.
36:33Different tribe.
36:34No one's heard from him since.
36:36I want to find him someday.
36:39Then we will.
36:53More tracks.
36:55West side this time.
36:57Sit.
36:59How many?
37:00Eight wolves.
37:01Different scent.
37:03They are mapping us.
37:05Learning our patrols.
37:06What do you suggest?
37:08Change routes.
37:09Random times.
37:10No pattern.
37:12I take west.
37:13I take east.
37:13No.
37:14I know the traps.
37:15You are wounded.
37:16I can still think.
37:19Matthew West.
37:20Zachary East.
37:22With two warriors.
37:23And Elias.
37:24No arguments.
37:35They learned.
37:37Push them to the funnel.
37:51What about this one?
37:53Tie it.
37:53The chief needs answers.
37:58Will they attack again?
38:00Not now.
38:01They saw the traps change.
38:02They saw we adapt.
38:03West tracks turn south.
38:05Then we repair, store food, and prepare for cold season.
38:08And after the tribe is safe, then Wesley.
38:13Wesley.
38:21The East Mountain has mushrooms and water fruit now.
38:24Good.
38:24We need stores before cold season.
38:26I will take you.
38:28You make that sound simple.
38:30It is.
38:30You sit.
38:31He runs.
38:43Climb on.
38:44Absolutely not.
38:46He treats you better than injured warriors.
38:49Alpha will not let you fall.
39:04Slower!
39:05Slower!
39:08Slower!
39:22This one is safe.
39:23This one is not.
39:24If you are not sure, do not eat it.
39:26This one is safe.
39:27Not now.
39:28If unsure, do not eat.
39:30He sounds like a tiny chief.
39:32They spoil fast.
39:34Then we process them.
39:35Dry some.
39:35Cook some.
39:40Egg pancakes!
39:51Zachary.
39:52It is not poisonous.
39:54Move it.
39:59Sire.
40:19I am fine.
40:21I just hate snakes.
40:22Snakes are easy prey.
40:24Then you may eat all of mine forever.
40:36You brought half the mountain.
40:38Not bad.
40:39Come by later.
40:40I will cook something.
40:41I am in.
40:42Sta'ab, Sajal.
40:44Food helps.
40:45So did saving them.
40:49Could you help me dig a hole?
40:53Perfect.
40:54Best helper in Beast World.
40:57Could you mix water with mud?
40:59Mud?
41:00For cooking.
41:19You are cooking dirt.
41:22I am cooking dinner.
41:25Those are different things.
41:27Wait and judge after eating.
41:33Egg pancake.
41:34Egg pancake.
41:48That came out of mud?
41:56Good.
42:08The fear smell is gone.
42:15You are watching Zachary.
42:17The body is the same.
42:18But the cave no longer smells like fear.
42:23That is good.
42:24Good can still be strange.
42:29You mean we threw this away before?
42:31You did.
42:31Please mourn later.
42:34Ow!
42:35Wait.
42:36It attacked me!
42:45What?
42:47Nothing.
42:50Nothing.
42:52You remembered?
42:53You said it keeps them longer.
43:01Better for the cub.
43:03But truth does not sleep forever.
43:09We cannot eat all this before it spoils.
43:12I can hunt again.
43:13That is not the point.
43:15Cold season comes.
43:16Food must last when hunting fails.
43:17Smoke dries meat.
43:18Keeps insects away.
43:20If we do it right, it lasts weeks.
43:22Weeks?
43:23Maybe longer.
43:24Small fire.
43:26Small fire.
43:26More smoke than flame.
43:27Too hot and it cooks.
43:28Too cold and it rots.
43:30You are very bossy for someone who nearly died in a lake.
43:32Dig straighter.
43:36Show me again.
43:38You want to learn?
43:38I want jaden fed when I hunt.
43:48Are they fighting?
43:51No.
43:52Then what are they doing?
44:06Sire?
44:07I said I would make clothes for you.
44:10You meant it?
44:13I try not to say things I do not mean.
44:21Does it hurt?
44:24Only my pride.
44:34It is mine?
44:35Unless you lend it to Taylor.
44:42Yours will take longer.
44:44You are bigger.
44:46You are making one for me too.
44:48If you want it, I want it.
44:57Tell me about Wesley.
45:00Subtle as a falling tree.
45:02Please.
45:02Wesley was your alpha's son.
45:05He wanted to be your mate.
45:07You trusted him.
45:08Before Matthew.
45:10Did I love Wesley?
45:18That is answer enough.
45:24Remembering who you actually wanted?
45:26Everyone knows Matthew was the chief's arrangement.
45:28Wesley was the one you clung to.
45:31Maybe the old me did.
45:33But Matthew stayed.
45:34Jaden suffered.
45:35That is the life I am responsible for now.
45:38Responsible?
45:39You?
45:40Yes.
45:43You do not get to sound noble after breaking him.
45:47Then I will not sound noble.
45:49I will work.
46:09Can you show the fruit tool again?
46:12Yeah.
46:12Yes.
46:13And the smoke method?
46:15Congratulations.
46:16You are useful now.
46:19Terrifying.
46:29Now everyone bows because he dried meat.
46:33Enough.
46:36You defend him now?
46:50They listen to you.
46:53For food.
46:54Not me.
46:55I listen to you before food.
47:16Still watching me?
47:18Yes.
47:22You know foods we do not know.
47:25Tools we do not use.
47:27Traps Avery never taught you.
47:30Who are you?
47:31I do not know how to answer without breaking what little trust I have.
47:35That is not an answer.
47:39No.
47:40It is a promise.
47:43Promises can hide lies.
47:49Jaden smiled in his sleep last night.
47:55That frightens me.
47:56That frightens me.
47:57Because hope can hurt him.
48:00It scares me too.
48:04I cannot give you my past tonight.
48:08What can you give?
48:11Tomorrow.
48:12And the next day.
48:13As many as I get.
48:17As many as I get.
48:18Sire.
48:24You changed gathering.
48:27Food storage.
48:28Cooking.
48:29Defense.
48:30Is that bad?
48:31Change feeds people.
48:33Change also freedens them.
48:35Especially when change wears an old face.
48:40Matthew's alpha died saving me.
48:43I arranged this mating to secure his future.
48:46Instead I gave him years of misery.
48:51Do not waste this second chance.
48:54I will not.
48:55Second chances are easy when you never paid for the first.
49:00He is not wrong.
49:02But I can pay forward.
49:04Food.
49:05Work.
49:05Protection.
49:06Every day.
49:09No.
49:10I do not think you will waste it.
49:17A lake can return a body.
49:20Not always the same soul.
49:24Fruit tools for high branches.
49:26Smoke racks near dry caves.
49:28Soap berries for washing.
49:29Spoiled meat away from sleeping areas.
49:31You hit your head and became a whole council?
49:35Apparently.
49:37What about families without strong hunters?
49:39Shared stores.
49:40Small portions.
49:42Count what comes in and out.
49:47Write it on hide.
49:49I can draw it.
49:51My writing will not help you.
49:56The cave still gets cold at night.
49:58We need better bedding before winter.
50:00I will hunt more hides.
50:04Not until you rest.
50:10I can rest tonight.
50:14Inside.
50:17Inside.
50:26How long will you keep acting?
50:28You hit your cub.
50:30Screamed at Matthew him.
50:31Now you cook meat and everyone forgives you?
50:34They should not forgive me easily.
50:38But if I spend every day feeding my cub, helping the tribe, and not becoming that person again, then that
50:45is what I will do.
50:47Pretty words.
50:48No.
50:50Work.
50:51Words are cheaper.
50:57Corey.
50:58You defend him now?
50:59My mate.
51:03Come home.
51:11You did not have to say that.
51:13I did.
51:15Why?
51:16Because it was true before I trusted you.
51:19Now I want it to mean something else.
51:27Come back safe, Alpha.
51:29I will.
51:31Come back to him.
51:33And to the cave.
51:42No injuries?
51:43No injuries.
51:44Good.
51:45I was not worried.
51:47You were worried.
51:52Shaman.
51:53Your mate's body survived the lake, but the spirit inside it changed.
51:59Ask your question soon, Matthew.
52:01Truth delayed becomes a wound.
