00:00:02HIT HER HARDER! HIT HER HARDER!
00:00:07LET ME TRY!
00:00:13Elara, you hoard yourself behind the Duke's back by the laws of this house.
00:00:18That means the death penalty.
00:00:21I pitied you. I brought you in as a sister.
00:00:25And you crawl into my husband's bed to frame me!
00:00:27Lovers, long before you came along.
00:00:30He only married you for your gold.
00:00:32Now your worth is spent.
00:00:34Even if I kill you right now, the Duke will only applaud.
00:00:43It's Mother's name day!
00:00:44I picked her favourite white roses. She'll love them!
00:00:49Mother?
00:00:53LET ME GO! MOTHER!
00:00:55Say your final goodbyes to your bastard daughter.
00:01:01Seraphine it is.
00:01:03Remember?
00:01:04The winter rose blooms in blood.
00:01:08You must live.
00:01:10Become a poison fl-
00:01:13Toss her in the mass grave.
00:01:15Tell the realm Lady Alana died of a sudden plague.
00:01:19Save the Duke's face.
00:01:21Mother!
00:01:22This bloody rose is so pretty!
00:01:27Indeed.
00:01:29Roses are much better in red.
00:01:31What do we do with Seraphina?
00:01:34Your mother is dead. Killing you?
00:01:37Too easy.
00:01:38The mayor always says my Isabella lacks your grace and talents.
00:01:43She'll be Isabella's shadow.
00:01:46Her perfect double.
00:02:01My Lady.
00:02:03This dark art of flesh-weaving, tearing the face alive- the agony breaks grown men.
00:02:08Perhaps we wait until she is of age to do it once and for all start now
00:02:12Make her look exactly like Isabella for every inch Isabella grows. You carve her flesh and shave her bones
00:02:20Yeah

00:05:32We are all waiting hold on is your arm suddenly injured or perhaps the rumors of your excellence are
00:05:40exaggerated

00:05:45Changing clothes to shoot an arrow or perhaps
00:05:49You don't know how to shoot at all and you're just stalling
00:05:52If you can't shoot just forfeit the title of first lady of the realm. Yes, know your place. Don't make

00:06:47Impressive
00:06:52You're great
00:06:54You're great
00:06:55Shooting dead targets is boring. Let's make it thrilling
00:06:58A living target
00:07:06Excellent
00:07:09Your turn lady Isabella
00:07:11That's easy
00:07:14You
00:07:15You an apple on your head a lemon in each hand
00:07:18Stand a hundred paces away
00:07:23I only need three arrows to hit them all
00:07:30A hundred paces with an apple and lemon that's impossible
00:07:35Brilliant I allow it
00:07:40You dare defy the queen's order
00:07:42That's treason
00:07:44That's treason
00:07:45I don't know
00:07:46I don't know
00:07:53To be able to kill them
00:07:57I don't know
00:08:06No! Please!
00:08:11Magnificent!
00:08:16Same face, but a completely different soul.
00:08:19Why does she feel so familiar?
00:08:21Hitting small targets at 100 beads, even my best knights can't do that.
00:08:24You truly surprised me, Lady Isabella.
00:08:26I keep my word.
00:08:27What do you desire? Ask.
00:08:29And it is yours.
00:08:30What do you do, the power?
00:08:31Say it! Say you want to be the crown princess!
00:08:34That belongs to me!
00:08:35Speak your mind.
00:08:38The queen is pleased today. She will grant anything.
00:08:46Is this bitch trying to use the queen's hand to avenge her dead mother?
00:08:57The lilies are pure. The peas are grand.
00:09:04But only the black rose rules the night.
00:09:09I humbly request that your grace wears this black rose today.
00:09:14You win the highest prize, yet ask for nothing but for me to wear this rose?
00:09:18Yes, your grace.
00:09:19Interesting.
00:09:23You look stunning, Mother.
00:09:26A true lady of unparalleled grace.
00:09:30But this cowardly maid almost ruined her mistress' moment.
00:09:33She must be punished.
00:09:36Guards!
00:09:37Twenty slaps to serve as a warning.
00:09:41No!
00:09:42Your Grace, I am actually...
00:09:45Sister.
00:09:46If you reveal your identity now, it's deceiving the crown.
00:09:50They will execute our entire family.
00:09:52What?
00:09:53Do you pity this maid?
00:09:59Not at all.
00:10:01This punishment is well deserved.
00:10:05It's a harder! It's a harder!
00:10:07Mother, do you see this?
00:10:09Paid.
00:10:09Everyone who framed you.
00:10:11I will destroy them all.
00:10:16You useless dog! You're killing me!
00:10:18Forgive me, my lady.
00:10:23How did a simple gala turn into this?
00:10:25It's all this bitch's fault!
00:10:27She gave up the crown princess title and got me whipped!
00:10:29She wants me dead!
00:10:31Outrageous!
00:10:32Bring me the whip!
00:10:34Mother, please!
00:10:36Everything I did today was for my sister's sake!
00:10:39Using me as a living dog, it is for my sake!
00:10:41If we just shot normal targets, we couldn't beat Lady Victoria.
00:10:44We needed a shock tactic to prove your courage and brilliance.
00:10:47Besides, demanding marriage on the first meeting would look desperate.
00:10:50Playing hard to get ensures your absolute victory.
00:10:53Lies! I'll kill you!
00:10:55A decree from the Dowager Queen!
00:10:59Morgana, the Dowager Queen invites you to the Royal Summer Palace!
00:11:03Isabella, a royal retreat?
00:11:05Only the inner circle goes there!
00:11:07It means she already accepts me as the crown princess!
00:11:11You're still useful.
00:11:13I'll spare you today.
00:11:15Go with Isabella and secure her future.
00:11:21It is late.
00:11:23Please rest in this courtyard.
00:11:24You will see the Dowager Queen at dawn.
00:11:31Who's there?
00:11:33Not a sound or I'll kill you.
00:11:35That voice?
00:11:37Prince Robin?
00:11:40My lords!
00:11:41I haven't seen any intruder.
00:11:42It's highly appropriate to barge in like this!
00:11:44Silence!
00:11:45Obstruct us and lose your head!
00:11:46Search every room!
00:11:49Don't move.
00:11:51Cooperate.
00:11:52Keep me hidden.
00:11:53And you won't be harmed.
00:11:58It really is her?
00:12:05Get in!
00:12:05What?
00:12:17Get in!
00:12:18What?
00:12:19Give me back!
00:12:20I am bathing!
00:12:21Who do you think you are?
00:12:22I am under Prince Arthur's orders to hunt a spy.
00:12:25A spy?
00:12:26He was stealing from the crown prince tonight?
00:12:28This is a military crisis.
00:12:29Step aside, my lady.
00:12:30We must search.
00:12:30Halt!
00:12:31I am an unwet maiden.
00:12:32If you ruin my honour by seeing me naked,
00:12:35and what will be your punishment then?
00:12:38Captain!
00:12:39No signs of the intruder in other rooms.
00:12:42If he's not in the others,
00:12:43he must be here.
00:12:45Apologies, my lady!
00:12:46Yes!
00:12:51Do you know who I am?
00:12:52I am Isabella, daughter of the duke,
00:12:55and the future crown princess.
00:12:57If Prince Arthur learns his future bride was stared at by his grumps,
00:13:01tell me how will you die?
00:13:04Mercy, princess!
00:13:05We were blind!
00:13:05Leave.
00:13:06For your loyalty to the prince,
00:13:08I will pretend this never happened.
00:13:09Thank you, my lady!
00:13:10Thank you!
00:13:19Why do this, my prince?
00:13:20Didn't I just play along and send them away?
00:13:22The princess just swore she'd die for her honour if seen naked,
00:13:25yet she willingly hides a man in her tub.
00:13:27Because I don't give a damn about this so-called honour.
00:13:30What?
00:13:30Why should a woman die just because a man looks at her?
00:13:33A woman's honour doesn't lie beneath her skirts!
00:13:49He is strong.
00:13:51Physically imposing.
00:13:52Completely different from the sickly prince at the gala.
00:13:55He's faking his illness, waiting for the throne.
00:13:58I will forget everything that happened tonight.
00:14:00You have my word.
00:14:02But I don't want to forget.
00:14:04Why?
00:14:05Scoundrel!
00:14:05Me?
00:14:07Such fierce beauty hidden beneath those skirts.
00:14:10You!
00:14:11We will meet again!
00:14:15When we meet the Daosha Queen,
00:14:17act as Isabella's shadow.
00:14:19Remind her of what to say.
00:14:21I will be watching you.
00:14:22No tricks.
00:14:23Rest assured, my lady.
00:14:25Now is not the best time to strike.
00:14:28Why is he here?
00:14:29Is he still suspicious?
00:14:31Coming to silence me?
00:14:32Did Lady Isabella sleep well last night?
00:14:35Yes, your highness.
00:14:37I slept very well.
00:14:39But this scent on you, it's different.
00:14:41Did something happen during your bath last night?
00:14:43Your highness, my lady is the future crown princess, your future sister-in-law.
00:14:47Speaking of her private baths in public, isn't that appropriate?
00:14:50Inappropriate.
00:14:51Didn't the lady say herself, a woman's honor doesn't lie beneath her skirts?
00:14:55What skirts?
00:14:56It was you last night, wasn't it?
00:15:03Forgive my intrusion today, Lady Isabella.
00:15:10You filthy whore!
00:15:11A few words and you bitch at the prince!
00:15:13He gave you a flower, take it off!
00:15:14Enough!
00:15:15Let's go, we cannot keep the Dao Hedger Queen waiting.
00:15:18You've gotten lucky.
00:15:20Lady, what exactly is Prince Rowan playing at?
00:15:31The juice lady Isabella, the Dao Hedger Queen is enraged today.
00:15:36Please come back another time.
00:15:37Why is she so angry?
00:15:38Her personal maid went home.
00:15:39No one can style her hair to her liking.
00:15:41She's threatening to behead us all!
00:15:43The old ham.
00:15:44Who is she even dressing up for at her age?
00:15:46Silence!
00:15:47You dare mock the Dao Hedger's queen?
00:15:50We shall return another day, my lord.
00:15:52Let's go.
00:15:55My lord, may I try?
00:15:57You?
00:15:58Forgive her, my lord.
00:16:00She's a mad servant girl from our estate.
00:16:02Always talking nonsense.
00:16:04I'll take her away.
00:16:05What game are you playing?
00:16:07Behave!
00:16:08Hold on.
00:16:10The show begins.
00:16:14You're a maid from the Duke's estate.
00:16:15What hairstyles do you know?
00:16:17Every style favoured by the ladies of the realm, my lord.
00:16:19A useless trash!
00:16:21Get out!
00:16:21Then give it a try.
00:16:22But if she is displeased, it has nothing to do with you.
00:16:25I will bear the punishment alone.
00:16:27My lord, you can't!
00:16:28She's just a country girl.
00:16:29If she offends her grace, who takes the blame?
00:16:32Yes, my lord, let us take her home.
00:16:33What is all this noise?
00:16:39Your Grace, the Duke's daughter, Lady Isabella, has come.
00:16:41Her maid claims to know the art of hairstyling.
00:16:43Is that so?
00:16:44Where is she?
00:16:45Greetings, Your Grace.
00:16:47I am here to ease your worries.
00:16:51Fine, let her try.
00:16:52Thank you, Your Grace.
00:17:04Mother, what if that little bitch actually pleases the Doubt-Edge Queen?
00:17:08Relax.
00:17:08The royal maids are masters and they all got their faces slashed.
00:17:12What can she possibly do?
00:17:15Your Grace!
00:17:16Your Grace!
00:17:17She definitely enraged the Doubt-Edge Queen!
00:17:23By the gods, she looks magnificent.
00:17:27Your Grace, your radiant beauty is truly unmatched!
00:17:29Your Grace, this braided style and glamour suit you perfectly!
00:17:32Beauty outshines the sun.
00:17:33I merely added a frame to a masterpiece.
00:17:35Not only are you and her hands skilled, but your tongue is sweet.
00:17:38Yes?
00:17:39Stay by my side.
00:17:40You shall be my personal handmaid.
00:17:42No!
00:17:43If this wretched girl stay with the Queen, she will surely expose our secrets!
00:17:45What are you waiting for?
00:17:47Kneel and thank her, Grace.
00:17:50Forgive me, Your Grace, but this maid absolutely, absolutely cannot serve in your palace.
00:17:55What?
00:17:57Is the Duke's wife unwilling to part with a mere servant?
00:17:59I would never dare, but this girl is cursed with a hideous face, which is why she always wears a
00:18:03veil.
00:18:04I fear her ugliness would give your Grace nightmares.
00:18:05We could not bear the guilt.
00:18:07Yes, Your Grace!
00:18:07Since childhood, her face has been covered in rotting sores.
00:18:10She is a monster!
00:18:11Is she truly that hideous?
00:18:13Her eyes are filled with life.
00:18:14Hardly the gaze of a monster as you described.
00:18:16Are you perhaps unwilling to part with her, Morgana, and weaving lies to deceive me?
00:18:20I would never dare, Your Grace!
00:18:21Then have her remove the veil!
00:18:23I want to see exactly how ugly it is!
00:18:25No, no, you mad!
00:18:28Mother, what do we do?
00:18:29She's going to ruin everything!
00:18:35Good heavens.
00:18:36What a pity for such a face.
00:18:39Thank the gods I prepared for this.
00:18:41I forced her to paint her face with that cursed rash potion.
00:18:47Why such panic?
00:18:49Girl, lift your head higher.
00:18:51Let me see.
00:18:53Put your veil back on at once!
00:18:55My face has disturbed Your Grace.
00:18:58I beg for Your mercy.
00:18:59Your Grace, you have seen it yourself.
00:19:01This maid of mine is truly cursed.
00:19:02This is why I dared not offer her to you.
00:19:04I was not deceiving you.
00:19:05What a waste of such skilled hands on such a hideous creature.
00:19:07Enough, leave it be.
00:19:08I know I am offered them to serve Your Grace.
00:19:10Thy sort in as glamorous I created myself.
00:19:12Wishing you eternal health and everlasting beauty.
00:19:30I see your true devotion.
00:19:32Fortunately, your features are not entirely ruined, merely plagued by an allergic rash.
00:19:36Once your face heals, you shall come to serve me.
00:19:39Thank You, Your Grace.
00:19:40My lady, surrounded by such overwhelming fear and fury, what kind of desperate surprise will
00:19:46you give me next?
00:19:48I am looking forward to it.
00:19:52Mother, what do we do?
00:19:54The Dowager Queen still wants her.
00:19:55Our secrets will be exposed sooner or later.
00:19:57Then we must ensure she Jesus sets her set's foot in the Queen's chambers.
00:20:00Even with her face rotting, the Queen still wants her.
00:20:02What else can we possibly do?
00:20:03If Serenage Alford her queerly in this royal avenating in this Queen's trimest, the Quincyne
00:20:07will be thoroughly belly on a queer and when her.
00:20:09So we simply find someone to defile her.
00:20:11Once she loses the Queen's favor and her purity, she'll have no choice but to obey us again.
00:20:15I've already laced this wine with a heavy sleeping dress.
00:20:17As soon as she drinks it.
00:20:19You little whore.
00:20:19You will suffer the exact same fate your mother did.
00:20:23My lady, I have finished packing the luggage.
00:20:25Good work.
00:20:25You must be tired.
00:20:26Come have a cup of wine.
00:20:39If there is nothing else, I will take my leave.
00:20:43So busy.
00:20:48It is done.
00:20:49Mother, let's go.
00:20:50We shouldn't interrupt their romance.
00:20:52How could we enjoy such a spectacular show all by ourselves?
00:20:55Listen to me.
00:20:58So you are the one my son has chosen.
00:21:01Isabella, daughter of the Duke.
00:21:03I greet your majesty.
00:21:04Rise.
00:21:05Since you are the future crown princess, we are family.
00:21:08No need for such formalities.
00:21:10Thank you, your majesty.
00:21:11The crown prince mentioned you painted a magnificent tapestry of flowers and wished for me to admire it?
00:21:17Forgive me, your majesty.
00:21:18I did not invite you here today to admire you.
00:21:20What is the meaning of this sound?
00:21:22Your majesty, you must know.
00:21:23Ever since we arrived, the chamber next door has been with these foul sounds of fornication night after night.
00:21:27It disturbs our peace and a holy sanctuary.
00:21:28We could bear it no longer, yet dared not speak of it to others.
00:21:31We had to use the painting as an excuse to bring you here.
00:21:33Such indolence to commit such filthy acts in a sacred sanctuary of the gods.
00:21:38I shall see for myself who dares to act so recklessly without a shred of shame or honor.
00:21:47Your majesty, it is this room.
00:21:50This is utterly shameless.
00:21:52Indeed, your majesty.
00:21:53We beg you to act.
00:21:54Seize these filthy dogs who mock the royal dignity.
00:22:00Where is my lady going in such a hurry?
00:22:05You...
00:22:06How are you here?
00:22:09Otherwise, where did my lady expect me to be?
00:22:13No.
00:22:14If you are here, then the person inside is...
00:22:22You're great!
00:22:25Mother?
00:22:26How could this be?
00:22:28I...
00:22:28I have been confined to this dreary abbey for so long, the loneliness was unbearable.
00:22:33Outrageous!
00:22:36My lady, after all these years, your tricks to frame others remain the same.
00:22:41But it's a pity.
00:22:43The injustice my mother suffered, I will never endure again.
00:22:51I had long received word through my spies that the Doutage frequently sought the company of young guards.
00:23:04While styling her hair, I confirmed the exact time and place of their rendezvous.
00:23:11So I took the herbal antidote in advance, faked my slumber, and played along perfectly to stage this grand show.
00:23:26My lady, wasn't catching adultery as your favorite pastime?
00:23:30How does it feel to lead the king straight to catch the Downish queen in the act?
00:23:39Why did the king suddenly come to the West Chamber?
00:23:41Was it an informant?
00:23:43Who dared to metuvel and plot to see me humiliate?
00:23:49Mercy, your grace!
00:23:50I swear I had no idea you were the one in silence!
00:23:53How dare you make excuses!
00:23:55Tear her mouth apart!
00:23:57Enjoy it, my lady.
00:23:58Next, I will return every ounce of suffering my mother endured tenfold.
00:24:07A small trick to turn the royal court upside down.
00:24:13Fascinating.
00:24:14Strike her!
00:24:16Harder!
00:24:16Put your back into it!
00:24:18Enough.
00:24:19Halt.
00:24:22Thank you, your majesty!
00:24:23Your mercy knows no bounds!
00:24:25You mother and daughter stumbled upon royal secrets.
00:24:29By law, you should both be executed.
00:24:31But considering your youth, Isabella, and your status as the future crown princess,
00:24:34I will show leniency.
00:24:36Return to the Duke's manor immediately and await my decree.
00:24:38Thank you, your majesty!
00:24:39I beg your grace!
00:24:46Did you truly believe your little plot was flawless?
00:24:52Who's there?
00:24:54Who's there?
00:24:57Greetings, your highness.
00:24:58Did the dowager queen like the ruby?
00:25:01So it was your highness who helped me today.
00:25:03She loved it.
00:25:04But I didn't expect you to be so bold,
00:25:06to drag the dowager queen herself into your scheme.
00:25:09How does he know I...
00:25:10Bold, yes.
00:25:11But careless.
00:25:14I found this on the floor of the west chamber.
00:25:17If they had found it, how would you have explained yourself?
00:25:20My hairpin!
00:25:21Give it back!
00:25:24No!
00:25:32Be careful, I'm...
00:25:33The one who picks up your hairpin might not be me.
00:25:37What's this?
00:25:38Killing the hound once the hair is caught?
00:25:40I have no ties to your highness.
00:25:43Why have you helped me time and again?
00:25:44How did that innocent, fiercely righteous little girl become so full of caution and calculation?
00:25:50Do we know each other?
00:25:52Have you truly forgotten?
00:25:59A bastard born of a maid actually thinks he's a true prince!
00:26:04Stop him!
00:26:07Leave him alone!
00:26:20How boring.
00:26:22Let's go.
00:26:31Eat this.
00:26:33The rest is ruined.
00:26:37I'm Serafina.
00:26:39What's your name?
00:26:41Rowan.
00:26:43Rowan, judging by your torn clothes, you must be a newly arrived stable boy.
00:26:47Little stable boy, do you want more bread tomorrow?
00:26:50Then wait here at the exact same time tomorrow.
00:26:53I'll bring you more bread.
00:26:54Promise.
00:26:59That stable boy was you?
00:27:03You finally remember.
00:27:07So that means you.
00:27:13Don't misunderstand.
00:27:14Care to verify?
00:27:17No need, no need.
00:27:18You look fine now.
00:27:19I'm truly happy for you.
00:27:22And you?
00:27:23You were such a beautiful child.
00:27:26What happened to your real face?
00:27:29I've long forgotten what I used to look like.
00:27:32But it's fine.
00:27:32I mean, some things are forgotten so others can be remembered.
00:27:39Does it hurt?
00:27:43Since my mother passed, no one has ever cared.
00:27:48He is the first.
00:27:51By the way, I waited three hours the next day.
00:27:54Why didn't you come?
00:27:59If you won't say it, then don't.
00:28:01Thank you for your help today, Your Highness.
00:28:02We're even.
00:28:03I won't reveal your secret.
00:28:05And please keep last night's events to yourself as well.
00:28:08Be careful not to leave behind any evidence next time.
00:28:12A feral cat that plays tricks will eventually be disciplined.
00:28:16You!
00:28:36You absolute fools!
00:28:38To offend the Dalmager Queen, you are gambling with my political future with the heads of
00:28:44everyone in this duke's manor.
00:28:45Is this a joke to you?
00:28:47Father, please calm down.
00:28:50It's all this venomous bitch!
00:28:52She framed my mother!
00:28:53Silence!
00:28:54Is this the time to argue over such trivialities?
00:28:57Father, I actually have a plan that might ease your burdens.
00:29:00Speak.
00:29:01Right now, the palace rumours only speak of a scandal caught in the act, without explicitly
00:29:06naming the Dalmager Queen's involvement with the guard.
00:29:08Father wishes to redeem yourself.
00:29:10Why not claim that it was mother who committed adultery in the royal abbey?
00:29:14Covering up this horrific royal scandal will surely earn the king's eternal gratitude,
00:29:18securing your political standing forever.
00:29:20No!
00:29:22A woman convicted of adultery!
00:29:24Sentenced to death!
00:29:25Have mercy, I beg of you!
00:29:27This...
00:29:28Father, a death sentence is perfect.
00:29:31Dead men tell no tales.
00:29:35Then, so be it!
00:29:38Father!
00:29:41My lord!
00:29:42I did not commit adultery!
00:29:45I don't want to die!
00:29:47My lady.
00:29:51When the future of father's house and the lives of hundreds of souls in this manor are
00:29:55at stake, are you truly so selfish that you would drag us all to the grave with you?
00:29:59Father, given mother's mother's reckless nature, it is best to grant she might blurt
00:30:03out if she lives what see the king today, to eliminate all future risks.
00:30:06But, after so many years of marriage, to execute her with my own hands feels...
00:30:11Father, the Grand Chancellor is inferior to you in both character and intellect, yet
00:30:15he constantly suppresses you simply because he is closer to the king.
00:30:19Are you truly willing to remain beneath him forever?
00:30:22Guards!
00:30:23Bring the poisoned wine!
00:30:29Father, no!
00:30:31My lord, I beg of you!
00:30:33My mind is made up.
00:30:35I will use your life to buy the innocence of this manor, but for the sake of our years
00:30:38together, I grant you a quick death with this cup.
00:30:41It will be painless.
00:30:48According to the ancient laws of our kingdom, a woman convicted of adultery should be flogged
00:30:52to death in the public square.
00:30:53If you truly wish to prove your absolute loyalty to the king, you should not grant her an easy
00:30:57escape.
00:30:58You must follow the law and whip her to death with your own hands.
00:31:01Venomous witch!
00:31:02Don't you dare touch my mother!
00:31:04Isabella!
00:31:04You are the future crown princess!
00:31:07The king will surely slur me for your sake!
00:31:09Say something!
00:31:10Beg him!
00:31:12I wouldn't be so sure.
00:31:15My dear sister, I only suggested this method for your sake.
00:31:18Yes, you are the future crown princess.
00:31:20But if mother lives, every time the king looks at you, he will be vividly reminded of the
00:31:23Dowpage queen's scandalous affair.
00:31:24I love you!
00:31:25With that stain on your family, do you truly believe you can still marry into the royal
00:31:28family and eventually the queen of this realm, just for a moment of pity?
00:31:32My sweet sister, I am dying to see between your mother's life and your future crown, which
00:31:40one will you sacrifice?
00:31:45Isabella, you won't turn your back on me, will you?
00:31:54Isabella, everything I did was for you!
00:32:00Guards!
00:32:00Bring the whip!
00:32:04You mad bitch!
00:32:06Silence your filthy mouth!
00:32:09I suggest you stop struggling, mother.
00:32:11If I lose my patience and reveal to the king who the real fake queen is, I'm afraid our
00:32:15dear Isabella will be torn apart by wild horses.
00:32:18You wretched hort in hell!
00:32:19You're ruining Isabella's life!
00:32:21It was you who ruined mine!
00:32:23You framed my mother, sent her to her death, and trapped me in this estate for over a decade.
00:32:27You moulded me into Isabella's perfect replica.
00:32:30Forced me to win the king's heart as her shad stripping me of my freedom.
00:32:33This is exactly what you deserve.
00:32:42Mother!
00:32:48Do you see that, mother?
00:32:50I finally avenged you.
00:32:54You bitch!
00:32:56Bring my mother back!
00:32:58What strength you have, sister.
00:33:00But where was this fierce spirit when they were beating her?
00:33:04You only play the hero after she's dead.
00:33:06Could it be you wanted her gone too?
00:33:15I'll kill you!
00:33:18The Lord Chamberlain has arrived!
00:33:20Hurry!
00:33:21Welcome him in!
00:33:25Greetings, my Lord Chamberlain.
00:33:26To what do we owe the honour of your visit?
00:33:28By order of his majesty, I am here to arrest the sinners Morgana and Isabella, who dared
00:33:32to disgrace the royal name with their adultery.
00:33:34My lord, you are slightly too late.
00:33:35Dared to commit adultery, tarnishing the royal honour to our house lord.
00:33:38Her body will be tossed into the nameless graves, forever stripped of our noble name.
00:33:42She is but a wandering ghost.
00:33:43Excellent.
00:33:44The king always favours clever men.
00:33:46Since you have cleansed your house, you deserve this.
00:33:50I hereby betrothed them, Isabella.
00:33:52May their union bring everlasting prosperity.
00:33:54It's so rare, Blackfish.
00:33:54I accept his majesty's grace.
00:33:56Thank you, my lord.
00:33:57Rise, future queen.
00:33:59In three days, the Prince Arthur will come to administer the purity test.
00:34:02Once your innocence is verified, the royal wedding preparation shall begin.
00:34:05Gritty test.
00:34:06Thank you, my lord.
00:34:07We will prepare thoroughly to ensure everything goes perfectly.
00:34:11Wonderful Isabella, once you become the queen, my path to the king's inner circle will be
00:34:15unobstructed.
00:34:16Father, I cannot take that test.
00:34:19What?
00:34:19I've indulged myself.
00:34:21I am no longer a maiden.
00:34:25You shameless harlot!
00:34:27If the Arthur finds out you are tainted, not only will you lose the crown, but our entire
00:34:31house will be executed for treason.
00:34:34What are we going to do?
00:34:36Father, it was always my sister who met the king in my stad.
00:34:40Why not let her take the purity test for me as well?
00:34:42Yes!
00:34:43Seraphina, you must take the test for her.
00:34:45If the king finds out a duke's daughter lost her voucher before marriage, our house will
00:34:48be ruined.
00:34:48We are all family.
00:34:50We rise together or we burn together.
00:34:52My mother was wrongfully murdered when I was five.
00:34:54I was raised in the shadows as nothing but a stand-in for your precious daughter.
00:34:59The world only knows of one noble lady in this house, Isabella.
00:35:03How am I part of this family?
00:35:05I know you hold grievances about your mother.
00:35:07I was deceived by that venomous woman, but she has paid with her life now.
00:35:10A life for a life!
00:35:11Go into the royal court!
00:35:12Serve your sister well!
00:35:13Once her position is secured, I swear on our bloodline, I will restore your status as
00:35:16a legitimate daughter of this house.
00:35:18Do we have a deal?
00:35:23As you command, father.
00:35:26A life for a life that's far too easy.
00:35:31My revenge has only just begun.
00:35:34The sister who clapped for her death.
00:35:36Hit her harder!
00:35:37Hit her harder!
00:35:38And the father who enabled it all!
00:35:41Well done, Morgana.
00:35:43We finally got rid of that toxic bitch.
00:35:48From the moment I step into that castle, I will drag you all into hell.
00:35:56Mother, the vile woman who ordered your death is finally rotting in the ground.
00:36:00As for the rest of this cursed house, I promise you, I won't spare a single one of them.
00:36:08Such grand ambitions for a shadow.
00:36:12Don't look at me like I'm a ghost.
00:36:14I know you're going into the royal court to drown them in blood.
00:36:18If your highness knows everything, why-
00:36:20Do you want to know why I broke our promise to meet that afternoon all those years ago?
00:36:25Mother, look what I brought for you!
00:36:30Mother!
00:36:32Wake up, please!
00:36:33My mother was nothing but a lowly maid sweeping the floors.
00:36:36The king had too much wine one night, and then came me.
00:36:39But even so, the queen couldn't tolerate her existence.
00:36:42To keep me alive, my mother willingly drank the poisoned wine the queen sent.
00:36:46So believe me, I understand your rage better than anyone.
00:36:49The queen is the king's birth mother.
00:36:51So he has been helping me because he wants to use me to tear down the king and avenge his
00:36:55own mother?
00:36:57Once I am inside the castle, I shall serve your highness to the best of my abilities.
00:37:01Is your real name Serafina?
00:37:04It is.
00:37:07Serafina.
00:37:08The burning one, shedding light in the dark.
00:37:11It suits you.
00:37:14Then I wish you the best of luck, my future sister-in-law.
00:37:26To his highness, may your union be blessed.
00:37:31Where is the thing I asked for?
00:37:34We consummate the marriage tonight.
00:37:37Once tonight is over, this worthless shadow will have outlived her use.
00:37:41I'll make sure she...
00:37:43I need to fix my hair.
00:37:45Hold the candelag for me.
00:37:47Yes, my lady.
00:37:49It's too dark.
00:37:51Stand closer.
00:37:52Do you want me to go blind?
00:37:54What?
00:37:54Are you trying to burn me alive, standing that close?
00:37:57Don't think taking that purity test makes you special.
00:38:00Once tonight is over, I will be the king, so second only to the king.
00:38:03And you?
00:38:04You'll still be dirt under my heel.
00:38:05Father promised to restore your name.
00:38:07Ha!
00:38:08Now that you are in this castle, you will never escape my grasp.
00:38:10Take the candelast and kneel in the snow outside.
00:38:12Otherwise, crushing a lowey maid will be as easy as stepping on a bug for a king's.
00:38:18Wait.
00:38:19Actually, just kneel right outside the door.
00:38:21I want you to hear exactly how the king and I spend our glorious wedding night.
00:38:30Enjoy tonight to the fullest, my dear sister, because it will be the last peaceful night
00:38:36of your miserable life.
00:38:37When my wedding gift arrives tomorrow, I wonder what expression you'll wear.
00:39:03Before I passed out, did I see Prince Roman?
00:39:11Two pills, three times a day, to keep the winter chill away.
00:39:17I suppose he's not entirely heartless.
00:39:26My sweet sister must have received the exquisite wedding gift I prepared for her by now.
00:39:35Father was reported for treason and hoarding stolen taxes and thrown into the dungeon?
00:39:41The king's guards have already raided and seized the estate.
00:39:44I barely escape with my life to bring you the news.
00:39:48My lady, you must speak to the king.
00:39:50Beg him to save the duke.
00:39:52Are you out of your mind?
00:39:53I am the daughter of a traitor now.
00:39:55I'll be lucky to keep my own head attached to my neck.
00:39:58How can I possibly speak for him?
00:40:00I was trying to exterminate our entire house.
00:40:06Do you like the wedding gift I sent you, sister?
00:40:08If you and your mother hadn't forced me to play your perfect double,
00:40:11I never would have gained access to the inner court to find those ledgers.
00:40:15You both dug the grave for our house.
00:40:18Let's see how long that pretty face of yours can keep the prince's protection
00:40:21now that your father's power is gone.
00:40:25But the evidence I gathered was only enough to strip his title.
00:40:30Why was the king so furious that he threw my father in the dungeon and seized everything?
00:40:36Then you owe me a very proper thank you.
00:40:42Does your highness specifically choose the hour I bathed to visit my chambers?
00:40:47I graciously gathered the remaining evidence of your father's treason with the other lords,
00:40:51ensuring he rots in the dungeon for good.
00:40:55Do you miss me that much?
00:40:57So it was you.
00:40:59Then let me ask you, your highness.
00:41:01Even if I saved your life when we were children, you've repaid that debt over and over.
00:41:04Why do you keep helping me?
00:41:05What is it you truly want?
00:41:07What do you think I want?
00:41:11What are you doing?
00:41:12You have no shame at all!
00:41:13I despise owing debts.
00:41:16What you implied just now.
00:41:17Isn't this what you want?
00:41:19Take it then.
00:41:21Did you really think I was some noble gentleman who couldn't handle you?
00:41:27Don't worry.
00:41:28I won't let you clear your debt so easily.
00:41:31I want you to owe me forever.
00:41:33I want your heart to always beat erratically because of me.
00:41:38You.
00:41:39Or perhaps you'd rather pay me back the other way.
00:41:42No!
00:41:43Great!
00:41:46Just a paper tiger after all.
00:41:49Take care of yourself.
00:41:50I'll come see you again.
00:42:00My lady, ever since the master's incident, the prince hasn't visited your chambers.
00:42:04What should we do?
00:42:05I've invited the prince for dinner tonight.
00:42:07I will definitely win his heart back!
00:42:10His royalness, Prince Arthur!
00:42:14Serving food is a maid's job.
00:42:16Why are you doing it yourself?
00:42:17Your highness, this has nothing to do with them.
00:42:19I love serving you.
00:42:20It brings me joy to do things for you.
00:42:23You are very thoughtful, my princess.
00:42:26Please, your highness, try this.
00:42:29These, are they the rare truffles of the whispering twoods?
00:42:33Whispering what?
00:42:34It's just a plate of ordinary wild mushrooms.
00:42:37The next line of the poem is,
00:42:38Through the whispering woods, only the pure fine truth.
00:42:40As the empire's most renowned lady of litter, do you truly not know this verse?
00:42:46Look at my clumsy mind!
00:42:47I completely forgot!
00:42:48Please forgive me, your highness!
00:42:50Why are you reacting so intensely?
00:42:52When did we become so estranged?
00:42:53Forget it, I've lost my appetite.
00:42:55Get up.
00:42:55I didn't mean it that way.
00:42:57If you don't wish to eat, why don't we retire to bed early?
00:42:59Let go!
00:42:59Don't touch me!
00:43:02Actually, ever since our medding day, I felt something was off about you.
00:43:05Seeing you today confirms it.
00:43:06You're like a completely different person from the one I knew before we married.
00:43:09Can a dazzling pearl turn into a dull fisheye once brought home?
00:43:15Your highness, don't leave!
00:43:17My dear sister, from the first time your mother made me dress up as you to meet the prince,
00:43:22this was a game you were destined to lose.
00:43:24Who on earth could confuse a fisheye with a pearl?
00:43:34She looks exactly like me!
00:43:35Why is the prince still obsessed with her?
00:43:38She must have played some dirty tricks on him.
00:43:40Go bring that bitch Serafina to me!
00:43:43Yes, my lady.
00:43:47Serafina!
00:43:47What kind of love potion did you feed the prince?
00:43:50Why does he keep talking about what you were like in the past, yet refuses to touch the present me?
00:43:53I have no idea what you're talking about, sister.
00:43:55Weren't you supposed to have dinner with him tonight and win his heart back?
00:43:59Where is the prince?
00:44:01How dare you mock me!
00:44:03Guards!
00:44:04Bring the lash!
00:44:07Whip her hard!
00:44:09Wait!
00:44:10You might regret this, sister.
00:44:13I never regret anything.
00:44:15I know you harbour resentment and I am willing to be punished.
00:44:17I just worry you'll miss your chance to win back his favour.
00:44:21What do you mean?
00:44:22The prince's birthday ball is in a week.
00:44:24I am confident I can win his heart back for you at the banquet.
00:44:26But if you wound me today, there will be no turning back.
00:44:29Are you threatening me?!
00:44:31I merely wish to remind you, sister.
00:44:33Even if you're jealous, it shouldn't be of me.
00:44:35There are countless beauties in this castle.
00:44:37I am nothing but your shadow.
00:44:38If we destroy each other,
00:44:39aren't we just handing the prince over to the other women in the estate?
00:44:43This bitch actually makes some sense.
00:44:48Sister, we are in the same boat.
00:44:49Don't throw away your position as crown princess over a moment of spite.
00:44:53Then tell me, how will you win his favour at the ball?
00:44:56The fish has taken the bait.
00:44:58It's simple.
00:44:58You just need to claim you are ill
00:45:00and stay in your chambers for the week leading up to his birthday.
00:45:06I wish your highness a joyous birthday.
00:45:09May you have many more glorious years to come.
00:45:12Cheers to you all!
00:45:15By the way,
00:45:17why don't we see the crown princess today?
00:45:23Her?
00:45:24She claims she caught some illness.
00:45:26It'd only bring a foul mood if she came.
00:45:28Pay her no mind!
00:45:30Your Highness,
00:45:31although the crown princess is ill,
00:45:33she still holds your birthday close to her heart.
00:45:36She has prepared a special gift for you.
00:45:38Is that so?
00:45:40Bring the gift forth, then.
00:45:42Yes, your highness.
00:45:53Who is this?
00:45:54I have a dance of the blood rose to present to your highness.
00:45:57What a delicate and passionate rose!
00:46:05I am a poisoned blade.
00:46:13That seductress!
00:46:28My beauty, let me see your face.
00:46:39Your highness.
00:46:41My princess.
00:46:42How can it be you?
00:46:43Weren't you resting due to your illness?
00:46:44I wanted to give you a surprise,
00:46:46so I claim to be ill to practice this dance in secret.
00:46:49Does your highness like my surprise?
00:46:51I love it.
00:46:52I love it dearly.
00:46:53Then I feel all my efforts were worth it.
00:46:56What is this black rose tattoo on your back?
00:46:59How come I've never seen it before?
00:47:01Oh no!
00:47:01I had it inked especially for you.
00:47:03Is it beautiful?
00:47:07Stunning.
00:47:09Shadows slant across the shallow waters.
00:47:12Hidden fragrance flows in the pale moon.
00:47:14Lord Elton's ode to the roe.
00:47:16You are indeed as brilliant as they say.
00:47:18Bring a seat for the crown princess.
00:47:22Isabella.
00:47:23I now realize the woman I dined with a few days ago wasn't really you.
00:47:36Anna!
00:47:36Prepare the hot coals!
00:47:38My lady, you mustn't!
00:47:39Why would you harm yourself?
00:47:41Fool!
00:47:42I'm gonna give myself a tattoo!
00:47:44What?
00:47:45That bitch has already made the prince memorize that tattoo.
00:47:49If he ever finds out I don't have it on my back,
00:47:51won't he get suspicious?
00:47:53But, Seraphina, you win this round!
00:47:57Sister, in the past, I was the one imitating you.
00:48:00I had to replicate everything.
00:48:03Even your scars.
00:48:04Nothing but your sister's shadow.
00:48:06Everything on your body must be exactly...
00:48:08Now, the tables have turned.
00:48:12Between the two of us, who is the understudy now?
00:48:18His Highness bestows a phoenix crest hairpin,
00:48:21three glowing crystal chaplets,
00:48:23a royal cloak of starlight silk,
00:48:25a pair of emerald scepters,
00:48:27and several deep-sea pearls.
00:48:29Ever since the crown princess danced at the birthday ball,
00:48:32she's regained all his favor.
00:48:34The prince has practically dismissed all other beauties and dotes only on her.
00:48:39Indeed!
00:48:39Not only does he spend every night in her chambers,
00:48:42but he also sends all these rare treasures.
00:48:45She is truly unparalleled in her glory.
00:48:48Your Highness, please stop sending me gifts.
00:48:50I care not for worldly possessions.
00:48:53Just having you by my side is enough.
00:48:54Very well. As long as you are happy, I will be here every day.
00:48:59I've noticed the herbal broth in your chambers is exceptionally delicious.
00:49:03What is in this?
00:49:05This...
00:49:05To answer your Highness,
00:49:07this broth contains moonflower, sweet root, and night whisper herbs.
00:49:11I heard your Highness suffers from headaches and insomnia due to state affairs.
00:49:15These herbs all have a calming effect.
00:49:17You are but a lowly maid, yet you know of a pathetree arts?
00:49:20I only know a little.
00:49:24Your hands are so pale and soft,
00:49:26they do not feel like hands that gather herbs.
00:49:28Are you new here?
00:49:30Why do you give me such a familiar feeling?
00:49:32Can you take off your veils so I may see your face?
00:49:35Your Highness, she is a maid I brought from my estate.
00:49:38She is dreadfully ug, which is why she wears her veils all day.
00:49:41Removing it would only frighten you.
00:49:43Wretched slave!
00:49:44Go fix the rest of the dishes!
00:49:45Yes, my lady.
00:49:58Tell me, am I beautiful?
00:50:00Yes, your beauty could topple kingdoms, my lady.
00:50:03Then tell me, will the Prince love me forever?
00:50:06Will he ever fall for someone else?
00:50:07You are the most brilliant lady of the realm.
00:50:10Your dance at the banquet captivated the entire capital.
00:50:13After seeing someone as perfect as you,
00:50:14how could he ever love another?
00:50:18Get out!
00:50:19Get out, all of you!
00:50:22What should I do, Anna?
00:50:24The Prince loves the talented and beautiful lady of the realm, not me!
00:50:27That little slit Serafina can seduce him even with a veil on!
00:50:30What do I do?
00:50:31Calm down, my lady.
00:50:32If you make too much noise, you might draw the Prince here.
00:50:36I know what I must do.
00:50:39I have to eliminate Serafina once and for all.
00:50:42As long as she lives, I will never have peace.
00:50:45My lady, in that case, I have an idea.
00:50:53Greetings, Crown Princess.
00:50:55For what reason have you summoned me?
00:50:57Sit down.
00:50:59I haven't properly thanked you for helping me win back the Prince's favor.
00:51:04His Highness sent some premium dragonbone herb today,
00:51:08and I thought I'd share it with you to nourish your body.
00:51:11What?
00:51:12Afraid I poisoned it?
00:51:14I wouldn't dare.
00:51:15But past experiences have taught me to be cautious.
00:51:18Fine.
00:51:25This should prove that the broth is perfectly safe, right?
00:51:29I apologize for my paranoia.
00:51:31Please don't take offense, sister.
00:51:38Thank you for your kindness, sister.
00:51:40If there is nothing else, I shall take my leave.
00:51:45What are you laughing at, sister?
00:51:47I'm laughing at your stupidity.
00:51:50I did drug you, but the drug wasn't in the broth.
00:51:53It was at the bottom of your bowl.
00:51:56Today, I'm having you dragged to the slave camps in the frozen north.
00:52:00From now on, you'll never be a threat to me again.
00:52:09Sister.
00:52:11It seems the drug you gave me is quite effective on you.
00:52:17How did you know?
00:52:19The day the Prince touched my hand,
00:52:21your eyes were figured that you wanted nothing more than to see me dead.
00:52:25Actually, I caught the Prince's attention on purpose.
00:52:27I wanted to see if my foolish, jealous sister could keep her composure this time.
00:52:32But alas, you haven't grown at all.
00:52:36You venomous snake!
00:52:39So, I watched your every move these past few days.
00:52:42Sure enough, I found out you had someone buy a sleeping potion and had a maid drug my bowl.
00:52:47So I swapped our bowls beforehand.
00:52:50Sister, I finally waited for this day.
00:52:53What do you want?
00:53:02To take your place, of course.
00:53:07My lady, everything is ready.
00:53:12Good.
00:53:13Drag her away, then.
00:53:16Yes.
00:53:27Long time no see, sister-in-law.
00:53:33What are you doing, Julian?
00:53:34Breaking into the Crown Princess chambers in the middle of the night?
00:53:37Aren't you afraid I'll have the guards arrest you?
00:53:42But you're clearly not the Crown Princess.
00:53:46Even if you call the guards and have me arrested, how exactly would you charge me, sister-in-law?
00:53:51Or should I call you...
00:53:54Serafina?
00:53:57I don't know what you're talking about.
00:54:01Drop the act.
00:54:02I recognized you the first time I laid eyes on you.
00:54:04No matter how you try to deny it, I won't believe you.
00:54:10Why?
00:54:10She and I are identical in every single detail.
00:54:13Even her personal maid couldn't tell the difference.
00:54:15How did you know we aren't the same person?
00:54:17Are you sure you are identical in every single detail?
00:54:26You!
00:54:27I'm just teasing.
00:54:29No matter how alike you two are,
00:54:32I can tell a true ruby from a drop of blood at a single glance.
00:54:42You've successfully made her vanish.
00:54:43Vengeance is yours.
00:54:44What's your next move?
00:54:47To secure my place as the Crown Princess, of course.
00:54:50Until her house is crushed beyond repair.
00:54:53Are you seriously going to keep playing the Crown Princess?
00:54:57Why not?
00:54:58And what about me?
00:54:59Do you truly not know?
00:55:04What are you angry about, Your Highness?
00:55:07Isn't my staying here as the Crown Princess exactly what you wanted?
00:55:12You helped me so much, wasn't it,
00:55:13to bring down the Crown Points and avenge yourself?
00:55:15When did I ever see...
00:55:16Princess has already retired for the night.
00:55:18It's fine.
00:55:19I just wish to see her.
00:55:23Hide!
00:55:24Now!
00:55:26Now!
00:55:41Afraid, my dear sister-in-law?
00:55:44Hide yourself first!
00:55:46What's my reward if I listen to you?
00:55:51Stop right there, Your Highness!
00:55:56I caught a chill today.
00:55:58It's best you keep your distance, Your Highness.
00:56:00I wouldn't want to pass the sickness to you.
00:56:03Very well.
00:56:04I shall just speak with you from here.
00:56:08Thank you for your understanding, Your Highness.
00:56:11Ever since we wed, I've felt something strange.
00:56:13It's as if there are two of you.
00:56:15One is brilliant and enchanting,
00:56:17the other dull and lifeless.
00:56:20Sometimes I wonder,
00:56:21are you hiding something from me?
00:56:25Isabella.
00:56:28I do have something to hide, Your Highness.
00:56:31Speak freely.
00:56:32That lost manuscript of the ancient empire you mentioned,
00:56:34I've actually found it.
00:56:35I was preparing to surprise you,
00:56:36but the effort distracted me from my duties to you lately.
00:56:39Please punish me, Your Highness.
00:56:41The ancient manuscript?
00:56:42Is that so?
00:56:43I completely misunderstood you, Isabella.
00:56:45Rest well, I won't disturb you further.
00:56:50Farewell, Your Highness.
00:56:54You can come out now.
00:57:02Are you leaving so soon?
00:57:10True vengeance is not perishing with your enemy,
00:57:13but destroying them
00:57:14and living a magnificent, free life.
00:57:22Is this the capital?
00:57:23So what if it is?
00:57:24Get lost, you filthy beggar.
00:57:27It's the capital.
00:57:28I finally escaped and made it back.
00:57:36Bless you, Your Highness.
00:57:38Think nothing of it.
00:57:39It is our saint.
00:57:40With the farm and striking the capital,
00:57:41her daily charity here is saving our lives.
00:57:44Indeed, beautiful and kind-hearted.
00:57:46Have you forgotten, Your Highness?
00:57:48The bishop commanded us to practice abstinence
00:57:50to pray for the plague to end.
00:57:51We cannot being intimate these months.
00:57:53Ah, I forgot.
00:57:54You are always so thoughtful, my princess.
00:57:58No, she is not the crown princess.
00:58:02Your Highness, it's me!
00:58:05I've returned!
00:58:06I've returned!
00:58:09God, protect us!
00:58:11No!
00:58:13Where did this madwoman come from?
00:58:15How could you be so careless?
00:58:16If she frightens the princess,
00:58:18I'll have your heads!
00:58:19Look closely, Your Highness!
00:58:21I am no madwoman!
00:58:22I am your true bro!
00:58:24What?
00:58:25Let me go!
00:58:27She looks exactly like the princess!
00:58:29What is going on?
00:58:30How is this possible?
00:58:33The two of you.
00:58:34Your Highness, I am the real crown princess.
00:58:36That bitch is an imposter!
00:58:38I have no idea what she's talking about.
00:58:42Still lying, you whore!
00:58:44Your Highness, she was but a lowly maid in my manner.
00:58:48Because she shares my face,
00:58:50she drugged me, stole my identity, and sold me!
00:58:53So, how cruel!
00:58:55Send me to the mercenary camp at the border!
00:58:58I suffered unimaginable horrors there!
00:59:01I barely escaped with my life!
00:59:05You must seek justice for me, Your Highness!
00:59:11This...
00:59:12Your Highness, would you truly doubt me
00:59:14over a raving lunatic who happens to share my face?
00:59:16What about the ancient poetry we shared under the moonlight?
00:59:19The romance and trust we built together?
00:59:21Was it all for nothing?
00:59:22She's lying!
00:59:23Don't let this whore deceive you anymore!
00:59:27I believe in you.
00:59:29You are the true crown princess.
00:59:32Guards, drag this madwoman away!
00:59:36Wait, Your Highness.
00:59:37Taking her away like this will only sow doubt among the people.
00:59:41Since she insists she is the princess,
00:59:44let us give her a chance to prove herself
00:59:46for the sake of the public's peace of mind.
00:59:49A wise choice.
00:59:50That will stop any future fools from thinking they can impersonate you
00:59:53just because of a similar face.
00:59:54Let her go.
00:59:56I shall test her myself.
01:00:01Since the sun is bright today,
01:00:02let us recite the ancient sentence of the light.
01:00:07This...
01:00:07Damn it!
01:00:08It was always this bitch who went to the academy in my place.
01:00:11I know nothing of the ancient synnets.
01:00:13The light of dawn reflects upon her grace,
01:00:15like blooming roses in a sacred place.
01:00:19Yet shadows fall to blind the brightest day,
01:00:22when ancient glory starts to fade away.
01:00:27Magnificent!
01:00:27She claims to be the princess,
01:00:29yet she can't even recite a single line!
01:00:30Your Highness, I was never good at the sonnets,
01:00:32and in my panic...
01:00:33Never good?
01:00:34Fine.
01:00:34I will start a verse,
01:00:36and you finish it.
01:00:37How about that?
01:00:38All right!
01:00:39A dragon forged of fire,
01:00:42steel,
01:00:42and stone.
01:00:43A dragon...
01:00:45shall claim the burning skies
01:00:46and blood-red throne.
01:00:47Shall claim the burning skies
01:00:49and blood-red throne.
01:00:50Perfect!
01:00:51The princess not only matched the rhyme,
01:00:53but elevated the meaning!
01:00:54Truly brilliant!
01:00:54The pearl of the realm, indeed!
01:00:56Unlike this,
01:00:56in part, speak a single word.
01:00:57Do you see?
01:00:58My princess is the most brilliant lady in the Empire.
01:01:00You cannot fake that
01:01:01just by sharing her face.
01:01:02Anna, you know the truth!
01:01:04Tell them who I am!
01:01:05Oh no!
01:01:06If I tell the truth,
01:01:07I'll be executed alongside her!
01:01:09Your real mistress is a ruined camp whore now.
01:01:12Unless you want to join her in death,
01:01:14keep your mouth shut.
01:01:15You filthy imposter!
01:01:17How dare you slander my lady!
01:01:18You deserve death!
01:01:23God, take her down!
01:01:28Let me speak a word with her,
01:01:30your highness.
01:01:31Give it up, my dear sister.
01:01:33Even if you proved who you are,
01:01:34what then?
01:01:35The crown prince wants a pure,
01:01:36brilliant, noble lady
01:01:37who can recite poetry with him.
01:01:39Not an illiterate fool
01:01:41who was passed around by mercenaries!
01:01:43Protect the princess!
01:01:47Your highness,
01:01:48I only tried to comfort her.
01:01:50I didn't expect her to...
01:01:51You bitch!
01:01:52You provoked me on purpose!
01:01:54Enough!
01:01:55Not only did you impersonate the princess,
01:01:56but you dared to exact no mercy!
01:01:57Guards!
01:01:58Beat her to death!
01:01:59Right here!
01:02:00What?
01:02:00You can't kill me!
01:02:01I am the real crown princess,
01:02:03the future queen!
01:02:04Still speaking treason!
01:02:06Gag her!
01:02:07It's a order!
01:02:08It's a...
01:02:12Are you alright?
01:02:15I'm fine.
01:02:17Justice is served.
01:02:19Mother, I have avenged you completely.
01:02:21May your soul finally rest in peace.
01:02:31Are you truly leaving?
01:02:32Didn't you say true vengeance
01:02:34is living a free life
01:02:35after destroying your enemies?
01:02:36My revenge is complete.
01:02:38There is no reason to stay.
01:02:39Oh!
01:02:41This is for you.
01:02:44What is this?
01:02:45The evidence needed to bring down
01:02:46the crown prince for treason.
01:02:47You helped me so many times
01:02:48just to get this, didn't you?
01:02:50Do you honestly think
01:02:50I helped you just for this?
01:02:51I could have found this evidence
01:02:52on my own eventually.
01:02:53What I truly want is not this!
01:02:55Then what do you want?
01:02:56I want you!
01:02:58Did you truly not see it?
01:03:01I...
01:03:01The king is old and dying.
01:03:03Once the crown prince falls,
01:03:04the throne will be mine.
01:03:05Seraphina,
01:03:06will you be my queen
01:03:07and rule this empire by my side?
01:03:10Do you know,
01:03:12before my mother married,
01:03:13my father,
01:03:13she was a renowned adventurer.
01:03:14She could have travelled the world
01:03:15free and wild.
01:03:16But because she married
01:03:17into his noble house,
01:03:18she was trapped in that manor
01:03:19like a caged bird
01:03:20until the day...
01:03:21I know,
01:03:21and I would never let you
01:03:21share her fate!
01:03:22Then would you abandon your crown
01:03:23and leave with me?
01:03:26This palace is just a larger cage.
01:03:28I want to fulfil my mother's
01:03:30dying wish to see the world.
01:03:31We part ways here.
01:03:33I wish you health and success,
01:03:35your highness.
01:03:42How much for this wine,
01:03:43shopkeeper?
01:03:44You have a keen eye,
01:03:45my lady.
01:03:46This is a ten-year-old
01:03:46elfin wine,
01:03:47buried underground.
01:03:48To Evda's record.
01:03:49Since the new king
01:03:50has just been crowned
01:03:51and pardoned the realm,
01:03:52I'll give you a discount.
01:03:53One silver coin!
01:03:54The new king?
01:03:55The crown prince?
01:03:57Forget about him.
01:03:57He was ruined by a treason scandal
01:03:59three months ago
01:03:59and stripped of his title.
01:04:00It was Prince Rowan
01:04:01who secretly controlled the military
01:04:02and took the throne.
01:04:03Congratulations.
01:04:04You finally got what
01:04:05you wanted.
01:04:06Here you go.
01:04:07You're welcome.
01:04:10Disaster!
01:04:15The new king suddenly fell ill.
01:04:18He passed the throne
01:04:19to his younger brother
01:04:20and died!
01:04:34The shadow falls upon the golden crown
01:04:36yet fire rises from the dragon's breath.
01:04:42It's a shame to waste such good wine.
01:04:45Care to share a drink?
01:04:54The world is too vast.
01:04:56I was just afraid you'd be lonely
01:04:57without me on the road.
01:04:58The world is too vast.
01:05:03The wind is too vast.
01:05:05I get to知.
01:05:05I agree to see you in a town connecting with theheaded stars.
01:05:05I'll use a deity because somebody is too vast.
01:05:05I do.
01:05:05You can just gather in the city.
