20:19father
20:20I'm so badass.
20:25Alaric, bring Sarah to me. I want to hold the little one too.
20:30I almost forgot about this old geezer.
20:34Don't tell me he still can't see the truth and plans to punish Julian.
20:38In the book, Alaric just tried to speak up for Julian,
20:42and this old man banished them to the Black Domean Abyss for the royal hunt.
20:46He called it training, but it was a death sentence.
20:48They were swarmed by high-level beasts.
20:52Alaric lost a leg, and Julian's manor veins were shattered protecting him.
20:57He became a total cripple.
20:59Father, may I hold Sarah as well?
21:02And then there's poor Felix.
21:03He was supposed to be the champion of the hunt, titled the God of War, and lead our armies to
21:09victory.
21:10But in the book, Nerissa made sure he never even made it back from the border.
21:15The next time he saw Father was on the battlefield as enemies.
21:18Such a tragic...
21:20Enough!
21:21You're just ganging up on me!
21:22When my father finishes his meditation, he'll slaughter you all!
21:26Fine.
21:26Since you're so confident, we'll see you at the royal hunt!
21:29Let's see who kills who.
21:31Return to the palace!
21:39Don't touch me!
21:40Aren't you afraid I'll run over there right now and tell them exactly who you really are?
21:45Useless trash!
21:46Stay away from me!
21:46If it weren't for my grand plan, I'd rip your tongue out right now!
21:49How could you think that?
21:50I'm only using them to gather intelligence.
21:53Don't forget, we are allies for the hunt.
21:56You'd better mean that.
22:02Tomorrow is the royal hunt.
22:05All three of you will participate and fight for the honor of Valeria.
22:10This old man is so stubborn, he's a hopeless case.
22:13He knows it's a trap, and he's still sending them!
22:16Neraza and Sebastian have already set a deadly trap in the mist forest.
22:20My three tall, handsome, rich brothers are walking straight to their deaths.
22:27I'll have secret guards watching Nerissa.
22:30She won't be allowed to leave the palace.
22:32Wait, the old geezer is actually waking up?
22:35Looks like Nerissa's little act is falling apart.
22:38As for Sarah, she cannot go.
22:40I will stay at the palace to protect her personally.
22:43Are you kidding me?
22:45I take it back!
22:46How can you leave me here with Nerissa?
22:49Nerissa, she'll suck my soul dry while you're napping!
22:52Help!
22:53I want to go to the hunt with my brothers!
22:55Don't leave me in this death trap!
22:58Father, I think we should take Sarah with us.
23:03Exactly.
23:03She has Mother's Ring and the Eternal Guardian.
23:06In terms of defense, she's actually the safest one among us.
23:10Sarah is our lucky star.
23:12Who knows?
23:14Maybe she'll be the one protecting us.
23:16There's definitely a generation gap with the old man.
23:19My brothers are the best.
23:22Fine, fine.
23:23Have it your way.
23:24But the four of you must stay together.
23:27Do not let your guard down.
23:30Welcome to the annual royal hunt.
23:33Whoever captures the legendary sacred stag
23:36will be crowned this year's champion.
23:40Now, I declare, let the hunt begin!
23:52Nerissa?
23:54What are you doing here?
23:56You three must have pitied me so you didn't wake me up.
24:00That's why I'm a bit late.
24:01Nonsense!
24:02Who authorized your release?
24:04You are not participating in this hunt.
24:06Return to the palace at once!
24:07Why?
24:08Why can a foundling baby go but I, your daughter, cannot?
24:11Father, you are being far too biased.
24:14This is a royal command.
24:17You old fool getting in my way.
24:20Since you're so eager to die, I'll kill you first.
24:23Oh no!
24:24She used dark magic to force a power boost so she could wipe out my brothers.
24:28She can't control the energy.
24:30She's about to strike father.
24:32Look out, old man!
24:33Nerissa!
24:33Nerissa, the forest is incredibly dangerous.
24:36Father is only concerned for your safety.
24:40My, my!
24:41If you brothers don't want Nerissa, I certainly do.
24:45Nerissa!
24:45Since your brothers don't cherish you, come with me instead.
24:49Fine!
24:49Since you're so eager to be the fool, take her with you.
24:52Brothers, let's move out.
24:53Sarah is losing her patience.
24:55That baby is a total jinx.
24:58Nothing but bad luck whenever she's around.
25:00Fine.
25:01I'll go without Sebastian for now and wait for the perfect moment to strike.
25:05Then I thank you, Prince Sebastian.
25:07Let's go.
25:16Four at 50 meters to the left.
25:19Combat power, two stars.
25:21Julia can handle it with a snap of his fingers.
25:24But do not touch that sweet-smelling grass straight ahead.
25:27It's a soul-eater spider trap.
25:29Nerissa said it's specific for Felix because she knows he loves the scent of that herb.
25:34That was close.
25:35I almost fell for it again.
25:37Felix, what's wrong?
25:39Nothing.
25:39I just feel like the mist is getting thicker.
25:43Of course it's thick.
25:44Sebastian has already activated the forbidden scroll.
25:47He's turning this forest into an inescapable labyrinth.
25:50Julia, do you have any treasures that can break through a labyrinth seal?
25:53It seems completely useless against a seal tainted with dark magic.
25:57Of course it won't work.
25:58The forest's guardian, the sacred stag, has been trapped by the wicked array they set up beforehand.
26:04With the stag trapped, the forest's purication is gone.
26:08If you guys don't find the stag and break the seal by midnight,
26:11every pure soul in this forest will become fuel for Narese's dark magic.
26:15That includes me!
26:16She'll drain me dry!
26:18Help, help, help!
26:20Since we can't walk out of here, locate the stag directly.
26:23Don't be afraid, Sarah.
26:25As long as we're here, we won't let anything happen to you.
26:28Whoa, my brothers are the best!
26:31Come on, think!
26:32Where exactly is the sacred stag?
26:35Ah, I remember now!
26:37It's under that withered millennial oak tree.
26:40That's the heart of the forest and the center of the array.
26:44The stag is trapped in a dark magic seal called the Eternal Cage.
26:51The poor stag, those black chains are draining its life force.
26:55Brothers, look!
26:57There are four skulls around the array.
26:59Those are the anchor points.
27:01They must be destroyed at the same time.
27:05Four anchor points, but there are only three of us.
27:07There's me too!
27:08The sapphire necklace around my neck, the Eternal Guardian.
27:12Its power is the perfect counter for this evil stuff.
27:16Just throw it over!
27:17Mr. Sarah, this is our only shot.
27:23Julian, Felix, get ready.
27:25On three.
27:27One, two, three.
27:38You're useless!
27:39You couldn't even keep the labyrinth seal intact.
27:41And you promised they'd never return.
27:45What do you know?
27:46You think they've won just because they freed that stag?
27:50That was the trap within the trap.
27:52The true dark magic isn't in those skulls.
27:55It is inside the stag itself.
27:57As long as they get close to that beast, the curse triggers.
28:00Just watch.
28:01They'll all be dead within seconds.
28:09Stop, stop, Alaric, don't go any closer.
28:12That stag is a time bomb.
28:14Nerysha planted a void curse in its heart.
28:17It's going to blow.
28:19Alaric?
28:20What is it?
28:21What do I do?
28:22It's too late.
28:22The curse has already sent Alaric!
28:32Terra!
28:46My god, the sacred stag of this forest has submitted to her on its own.
28:51It's a soul covenant.
28:53From now on, the power of this entire forest belongs to her.
28:57As long as she stands on this land, she is practically a goddess.
29:03Brothers!
29:08Sarah, is that you?
29:09Oh my god, I'm grown up.
29:12I can speak.
29:13Heaven has finally to its senses.
29:17Brothers.
29:20Sarah, you can speak.
29:22I can actually talk.
29:25Finally, all the things I've been screaming in my head, I can finally say them out loud.
29:31How can this be?
29:34Where is my power?
29:36Where is my dog magic?
29:38It seems the forest's spiritual energy has drained you dry.
29:49The sacred stag has bonded with my daughter.
29:52Father, the sacred stag has bonded its soul to Sarah.
29:55Volodia has won this year's hunt.
30:03Father, father, save me.
30:05Sebastian tricked me.
30:07He wants to kill me.
30:08Finally, this moment, after holding it in for so long, this time I am saying it out loud.
30:15This gentle, kind, at Prince Enoris, he is, in truth, a witch who has practiced dark magic for many years.
30:23Before this hunt, she forced her dark magic past its limit, hoping to wipe out my brothers in the forest.
30:29But the forest's pure energy turned against her.
30:31And now, every ounce of her power is gone.
30:36Felix's poisoning, a Julian's framing, all those strange events in the palace, it was all your dying.
30:48So what if it was?
30:50All of this was supposed to be mine.
30:53Father's love, the princess's devotion, the fate of the kingdom, until that filthy thing from the wilderness appeared.
31:00She stole my destiny.
31:02She took everything that was supposed to be mine.
31:05I did not steal your destiny.
31:07You chose your own path of no return.
31:10If I cannot have anything, then you shall have nothing in either.
31:16Oh, no!
31:17Sarah!
31:36Sarah!
31:39Sarah!
31:41Open your eyes!
31:42You vile witch!
31:46She's dead!
31:47She's dead!
31:48My destiny has returned to me!
31:53There's...
31:53There's still a heartbeat.
31:56Your majesty!
31:57The little princess's soul has been sealed by dark magic.
32:01She...
32:01She has fallen into a deep slumber.
32:04How can this be undone?
32:05The curse is bound to the caster's last drop of life force.
32:09It will not lift until that magic naturally fades.
32:12Or...
32:13Unless some miracle occurs.
32:15Narasa.
32:16I once raised you as my own, granted you the title of princess.
32:20Today you have wielded dark magic, poisoned the royal house, and struck down my own daughter.
32:24I hereby decree, you are stripped of your status as a ward of Valoria, and of every title bestowed upon
32:30you.
32:30From this day forth, you are banished from this kingdom, never to return.
32:34Father!
32:35One day you will regret this!
32:40Home.
32:41Let us go home.
32:46Little one.
32:48Let me hear your voice one more time, please.
32:53Brother, I'll go after Narisha and force her to undo the curse with her own hands.
32:57It's no use.
32:58Her magic is gone.
32:59She can do nothing now.
33:01From the day father brought this little one home from the wilderness.
33:04Every single day we heard her chattering in our minds.
33:08So loud, so annoying.
33:11And yet now...
33:13Hmm.
33:14Why is it so dark?
33:16Where is this?
33:17Sarah?
33:19I feel like I'm dreaming.
33:21But this dream feels so real.
33:24I can feel someone holding my hand.
33:27Brother, you heard that too.
33:29We heard it.
33:31It's Sarah, it's her voice.
33:35What is it?
33:36Has Sarah woken?
33:38Hmm.
33:39Do I smell hot milk?
33:40Is that father?
33:42Father, why are you up this late warming milk for me?
33:46You're not getting younger.
33:47You need your rest.
33:50Sarah.
33:51My Sarah.
33:53You're still here.
33:58Sarah.
33:58I caught you a spirit squirrel from the holy mountains of the north.
34:02They say its call brings joy to whoever hears it.
34:05It's so noisy.
34:07Who's squeaking right in my ear?
34:09Out, out, out!
34:11You're disturbing the princess's sleep!
34:14Brother, you haven't slept in three days.
34:17It's fine.
34:17Why am I asleep?
34:20I remember exposing Nerissa.
34:23And then she lunged at me.
34:25No, wait.
34:26Why did I grow to seven years old?
34:28I rushed it.
34:31In the original story, Nerissa was supposed to be cornered by many forces much later.
34:36Only then driven to her dead end.
34:38I exposed her too early.
34:40She still had her last breath of magic when I did.
34:44It was not supposed to happen this way.
34:46I sped up everyone's fate.
34:48I bent the entire story by force.
34:52And now it's bending back on me.
34:55Then, how do I wake up?
34:58Let the story return to its rightful course.
35:02In the original story, Nerissa does not die so easily.
35:06She flees to Sebastian's kingdom, claims to have gained the gift of prophecy,
35:09and ignites war between the two kingdoms.
35:12Then she is outwitted, exposed, discarded, and meets a wretched end.
35:15That is her true ending in the book.
35:18I have to let the story follow that thread.
35:20Only when Nerissa walks her original fate to the end
35:24will I have any chance of waking.
35:26But I am asleep now.
35:29I can do nothing.
35:30How would father and my brothers ever know all this?
35:35You heard her?
35:36Yes.
35:38Let the original plot unfold as it should.
35:40Now this is interesting.
35:42My foolish little girl.
35:44You think father and your brothers would ever let you bear this alone?
35:48Our spies report that Nerissa has slipped into the Vervemont Palace alone
35:52and sought audience with Sebastian.
35:54Useless!
35:55Her magic is gone!
35:56Why didn't our men intercept her on the road?
35:58Felix, did you forget what Sarah said?
36:00The story must return to its rightful course.
36:03Nerissa fleeing to Sebastian was always part of the original plot.
36:06So we...
36:07Help her?
36:08Help her perform this play to its very last act.
36:11Let the wretched ending the original book wrote for her fall upon her word for word.
36:16Well, well.
36:18If it isn't the cast-out Princess of Valeria,
36:22what brings you here?
36:23Your Highness.
36:25I have come to help you unite the two kingdoms.
36:29You?
36:29A powerless wretch?
36:31With what do you plan to help me?
36:34My dark magic may be gone,
36:36but in the moment of the backlash I gain something far more terrifying.
36:41What thing?
36:42The gift of prophecy.
36:44I can see every movement of Valeria's armor.
36:48Words alone prove nothing.
36:50If you want me to believe you,
36:52you'll have to prove it.
36:54Tell me how, Your Highness.
36:56I will do anything.
36:58I may have lost my magic,
37:00but my spy inside Valeria's palace was never discovered.
37:04That is enough.
37:09In the original story,
37:11Nerissa's first move
37:12was to use her hidden contact inside the palace
37:14to feed Intel to Sebastian.
37:20Sarah said there is a spy of Nerissa's inside the palace
37:24feeding intelligence to Sebastian.
37:26As I expected.
37:27A stable boy in the palace
37:29named Marcus.
37:31Every three days,
37:32he leaves under the pretest of delivering feed,
37:35each time by a different route at a different hour.
37:38Seize him.
37:40Question him under whatever measure necessary.
37:43Father, no.
37:45He is our finest tool
37:47for sending Nerissa to her doom.
37:50We shall feed Nerissa
37:51exactly the intelligence she craves.
37:55Your Highness,
37:57this woman's origins are dubious.
38:00Will you really entrust military secrets
38:02to her prophecies?
38:04I want to see for myself
38:06whether her boasts
38:08can withstand scrutiny.
38:10Speak.
38:11Predict every troop movement
38:12Valeria will make
38:13in the coming month.
38:15My ministers will record every word.
38:17In seven days,
38:19Valeria will depatch
38:203,000 elite troops
38:22to the eastern frontier
38:23with Prince Julian
38:24personally overseeing the supplies.
38:27In ten days,
38:28the northern garrison rotates
38:29and Prince Felix
38:30and Prince Felix is ordered
38:31to train new recruits in the north.
38:33In other words,
38:35on the 8th of next month,
38:36Valeria's eastern frontier
38:38will be an empty city
38:40defended only by leaderless reserves.
38:43Such precision.
38:44And how am I to verify this?
38:46Send your highness's most trusted spy
38:48into Valeria to verify.
38:50I stake my own head on the truth of it.
38:52And so the sleeping princess
38:54waited and waited
38:56for a thousand years.
38:59Nerissa attended
39:00Sebastian's war council today.
39:03She predicts our army's movements.
39:06In the original story,
39:08Sebastian sends a spy
39:09to Valeria to verify.
39:11This is the critical moment
39:12for our false intelligence.
39:14If the spy sees what Nerissa said,
39:16word for word,
39:17Sebastian will believe her completely.
39:19But how would father and my brothers
39:21ever think this far ahead?
39:23Your highness,
39:25every word Princess Nerissa spake
39:26is true.
39:31Excellent.
39:32What a goddess of prophecy.
39:34Issue my command.
39:36In 10 days,
39:36our army marches.
39:37We crush Valeria's eastern frontier
39:39in a single strike.
39:45Help me seize Valeria
39:47and I shall make you my queen.
39:50Foolish man.
39:51Once I am your queen
39:53and bear your son,
39:55all of Viramond
39:56will also be mine.
40:04Felix,
40:05the enemy is too strong.
40:07We are not prepared.
40:08Per the plan,
40:09retreat.
40:10Abandon the city
40:11and fall back
40:13to the second line of defense.
40:23A glorious first victory,
40:25your highness.
40:26Let me toast you.
40:28You are far more useful
40:30than I expected.
40:31Your highness,
40:33I have seen another vision.
40:34In three days,
40:36only Prince Alaric
40:37will hold Valeria's
40:39second line of defense.
40:41Prince Julian
40:42will have already retreated
40:43to the capital.
40:44If your highness
40:45leaves the raid in person,
40:47Prince Alaric
40:48can be captured
40:49in a single strike.
40:52Alaric,
40:53that hordy,
40:54cold-faced
40:54heir of Valeria.
40:56I shall have him
40:57groveling at my feet.
41:01Did Sarah send you
41:02to protect me as well?
41:07Alaric,
41:09heir of Valeria.
41:10Surprised are you?
41:12Tonight I come for your head!
41:22Welcome.
41:32An empty city,
41:33just as she said.
41:34Neressa,
41:35this time I shall
41:36reward you handsomely.
41:43From this day forth,
41:45Valeria's second defense line
41:47also belongs to me!
41:52The proud heir of Valeria
41:54kneeling at my feet.
41:55How does it feel?
41:57You should not have
41:58come yourself.
41:58I came precisely
42:00because I wanted to.
42:13Impossible!
42:14The intelligence
42:15clearly stated
42:15Valeria's main force
42:16was still in the capital!
42:19Princess,
42:19Valeria's main army
42:20is closing in
42:21from west, south,
42:22and north.
42:23Our line of retreat
42:23has been cut!
42:27My intelligence
42:29could not be wrong.
42:31You set me up!
42:34Not me.
42:36It was my little sister
42:37who still lies sleeping.
42:57Father,
42:59Alaric,
42:59we did it.
43:02Yes, my Sarah.
43:04We did it.
43:13You lying witch!
43:16You have doomed
43:17his highness!
43:22Impossible!
43:24How can this be?
43:28Speak.
43:30The child in your bemmy,
43:32is it mine?
43:34Your highness,
43:35of course it is yours.
43:41Your highness,
43:42this young woman
43:44is not with child at all!
43:46Shit!
43:47Wretched heart!
43:49You dared perceive me!
43:51Calm yourself,
43:52your highness.
43:53There is yet one more thing
43:54you do not know.
43:55Speak!
43:56This princess Nerissa
43:58is no true
43:59Valeria princess.
44:01She is an orphan
44:02our father took in
44:03twenty years ago
44:04from the chaos of war.
44:07What?
44:08A ward?
44:10I, Sebastian,
44:11lost an army
44:12and disgraced my crown
44:13for a swindling woman
44:16without a drop
44:17of royal blood.
44:18No!
44:20Let me end her
44:21with my own hands!
44:23Stop!
44:24Nerissa
44:25is a fugitive
44:26of Valeria.
44:27Her judgment
44:28is not
44:30yours to deliver!
44:39Sebastian,
44:40crown prince
44:41of Viramont,
44:42you initiated
44:42unprovoked war
44:43and invaded Valeria,
44:45bringing suffering
44:46upon the people
44:46of both lands.
44:47By the treaty
44:48between our two kingdoms,
44:50how shall you be judged?
44:51your majesty
44:53of Valeria,
44:54our king
44:54will cede
44:55six eastern border
44:56cities in reparution
44:58plus ten thousand
44:59gold coins
45:01annually for twenty years,
45:03begging only
45:04for the life
45:05of our crown prince!
45:07So be it.
45:08Prince Sebastian
45:09will remain in Valeria
45:10as a hostage
45:11for two years
45:11to oversee the reparations.
45:13He may return home
45:15only after that term
45:16is fulfilled.
45:17Nerissa,
45:18you were my ward.
45:19I treated you
45:20as my own daughter
45:21and yet
45:21you practiced
45:22the dark arts,
45:23poisoned my youngest son,
45:24framed my second,
45:25conspired against
45:26the royal house,
45:27committed high treason
45:28and struck
45:28down my own daughter!
45:31Father,
45:32do you still not see?
45:34I was meant to be
45:35your only daughter,
45:36the only princess
45:37of Valeria!
45:38Your son's devotion,
45:40your tender love,
45:40the fate of this kingdom,
45:41all of it
45:42was meant to be mine!
45:46until that filthy thing
45:48from the Underless
45:49appeared.
45:50She stole my place!
45:52She took the destiny
45:52that was supposed
45:53to be mine!
45:55From the day
45:56you first touched
45:57dark magic,
45:58you ceased
45:58to be my daughter.
46:00By the laws of Valeria,
46:02one who wields
46:02dark magic
46:03and conspires
46:04against the crown
46:05shall be stripped
46:06of all titles,
46:07exiled to the
46:08frozen islands,
46:09never to return.
46:10No!
46:11Not the frozen islands!
46:12All of this
46:13was supposed
46:14to be mine!
46:15All of this
46:16was supposed
46:16to be mine!
46:17Was supposed
46:18to be mine!
46:29Your Highness,
46:30tomorrow is
46:31the little princess's
46:32coronation.
46:33His Majesty
46:33has decreed,
46:35tonight,
46:35no one is
46:36to keep vigil.
46:37He will sit
46:37with her alone.
46:39Very well.
46:44Little one,
46:45tomorrow is
46:46your coronation.
46:46These past few
46:47years,
46:48father has
46:48aged greatly.
46:49Coronation?
46:51Me?
46:52I've slept
46:53so long.
46:54The story
46:55should have
46:56returned to
46:57its course
46:57long ago.
46:58Why have I
46:59not woken?
47:00What is still
47:01missing?
47:02What is missing?
47:05My Sarah,
47:07tomorrow is
47:07your coronation.
47:08This crown
47:09was worn by
47:10your mother
47:10on the day
47:11of her own
47:11coronation.
47:12Her greatest
47:13regret,
47:14before she
47:14passed,
47:15was never
47:16seeing her
47:16own daughter
47:17wear it.
47:18Sarah,
47:19you have
47:20slept for
47:20so long.
47:21These past
47:22years,
47:23your father
47:23and your
47:24three brothers
47:24have done
47:25everything
47:25imaginable.
47:26Neressa is
47:27exiled to
47:27the Frozen
47:28Isles.
47:28Sebastian
47:29has paid
47:29his price
47:30and returned
47:30home.
47:31Valoria
47:31has never
47:32been stronger.
47:33And yet,
47:34there remains
47:36a hollow
47:36place in my
47:37heart.
47:39Father does
47:39not lack
47:40a daughter.
47:42Father lacks
47:43you.
47:43It matters
47:44not how the
47:45crown sits
47:46upon you.
47:47If only you
47:47would wake,
47:48if only you
47:49would call me
47:50father one
47:50more time,
47:51I would
47:52surrender all
47:53the rest.
48:03Father.
48:06Sarah,
48:07my Sarah.
48:09father.
48:10Sarah has
48:11come home.
48:14I am not
48:15the heroine
48:15of this story.
48:16I am only
48:17a daughter,
48:18lifted from
48:19the wilderness
48:19by her
48:20father's hands.
48:21This time,
48:22I will simply
48:23be that
48:24daughter.
48:29Father didn't
48:30return all night.
48:31I thought
48:31something had
48:31happened.
48:32Good morning,
48:33Felix.
48:34Why does
48:35Felix look at
48:36me like he's
48:37seen a ghost?
48:38It's not as
48:38if I actually
48:39died.
48:41Sarah,
48:42you're awake!
48:43You're awake!
48:45Felix,
48:46my milk is
48:47going to spill.
48:49Sarah.
48:51Sarah.
48:52Sarah.
48:52Brother,
48:53I've waited for
48:54you for so long.
48:55Goodness,
48:56so much commotion
48:56this early in the
48:57morning,
48:57my eyeliner
48:58is going to run.
48:59Julian,
49:00when have you
49:00ever worn eyeliner?
49:02Sarah,
49:02the coronation,
49:03do you wish
49:04for it to
49:04proceed as
49:05scheduled?
49:05Yes.
49:06Sarah is
49:07father's daughter.
49:08Sarah is the
49:09princess of
49:09Velouria.
49:10From today
49:11onward,
49:12Sarah will
49:12truly bear
49:13this name.
49:14I have
49:15never asked
49:15you,
49:16Sarah.
49:17Do you
49:18truly wish
49:18to call me
49:19father?
49:20Yes.
49:22It was
49:23you who
49:23lifted Sarah
49:24from the
49:24wilderness.
49:25You have
49:26given Sarah
49:26everything.
49:28Father,
49:29Sarah once
49:30came from

50:44I once
50:45believed I
50:46was the one
50:46who chose
50:47my destiny.
50:48Then destiny
50:49pushed me
50:49into a place
50:50I never
50:50knew,
50:51turning me
50:52into a baby
50:52abandoned in
50:53the wilderness
50:53with nothing
50:54but tears.
50:55I thought I
50:57would change
50:57everything.
50:58But the
50:58truth is,
50:59my father
51:00in this
51:00place and
51:01my three
51:01brothers,
51:02with their
51:03love,
51:03piece by
51:04piece,
51:05made me
51:05into the
51:05true
51:06Seraphina.
51:07This time,
51:07I do not
51:08choose my
51:09destiny.
51:10I accept
51:11it,
51:11because what
51:12destiny gave
51:13me is the
51:14most precious
51:15family in
51:15this world.
51:17I
51:18love
51:18my
51:19my
51:20my
51:20love
