00:00:26They're in the sacred grounds!
00:00:35Hey, Ranga!
00:00:38How's that? Pretty good, right?
00:00:42A knight who throws away her blade? Some knight you are.
00:00:45Okay, so I'm a knight now. Can you knight me?
00:00:51Celeste, you are the most gifted swordswoman I have ever known.
00:00:54But the Codex of the Radiance dictates that only knights may bestow knight shit upon others.
00:01:00Women can never become knights.
00:01:11Neil, Lady Celeste.
00:01:18The world may turn a woman away, but chivalry never will.
00:01:22No.
00:01:25Merge! Every last corner!
00:01:27Let up and code the area!
00:01:29Go! Hide! Do not come out!
00:01:31I'm staying with you!
00:01:32Don't be ridiculous!
00:01:34The Codex has no mercy.
00:01:36The Patriarch will show none either. Not if it means saving the house.
00:01:39You must never tell anyone you learned the Codex Dracus. Never!
00:01:59Ranga!
00:02:01You trespassed into the Forbidden Grounds to learn the sword.
00:02:05You even stole the Codex Dragonus. Do you confess?
00:02:10Confess what? I learned the sword, so what? I am a daughter of House Vanguard, learning our own ancestral bladecraft.
00:02:19How is that theft?
00:02:20Aldrich, this is your own daughter. You say the words. The Holy Psy awaits your answer.
00:02:27Let the Patriarch pass judgment! Let the Patriarch pass judgment!
00:02:35Let the Patriarch pass judgment!
00:02:40Let the Patriarch pass judgment!
00:02:43Let the Patriarch pass judgment!
00:02:45Let the Patriarch pass judgment!
00:02:46Let the Patriarch pass judgment!
00:02:47Let the Patriarch pass judgment!
00:02:47Father, please, spare my sister!
00:02:51Swords were forged from men's hand. A woman's hand belongs to the ladle and the needle. To take up the
00:02:56blade is to transgress. For the sake of this house, that the Holy Say may not cast us out, I
00:03:02must cleanse your sin!
00:03:05To hell with the Radiant Codex! What gives it the right to decide that women cannot learn the sword? Get
00:03:11out, Celeste!
00:03:14Get out! I do not need a child pleading for me! Go!
00:03:19Ranga Vanguard, from this day forth, I strip you of your knightly craft and your arcane core.
00:03:28So shall the Holy See know that this house has never betrayed the Faith.
00:03:50No!
00:03:52Let me go! Let me go, Auntie!
00:04:13Archie!
00:04:14Archie!
00:04:15No!
00:04:33Archie!
00:04:34Archie!
00:04:35Archie!
00:04:38Archie.

00:07:22you will never ever be a knight i draw my blade for the defenseless for my home
00:07:29for those who cannot fight for themselves if that is not a knight then what is being a knight is
00:07:35not as
00:07:35simple as you imagine how will i know unless i try very well you want to try
00:07:46these three guardians were forged from abyssic stone
00:07:49for a hundred years they have repelled every foe who set foot in this corridor

00:08:02watch

00:08:33codex of holy radiant knights heavy as stone and fierce as flame valiant in frame
00:08:41this is the art of the blade forged for a man's body a man's strength
00:08:56that is the distance between you and a true knight lord cassian the patriarch summons you and the young
00:09:02lady to the great hall go change out of that armor now
00:09:08celeste
00:09:09so
00:09:49Celeste!
00:09:50Cassian!
00:09:56Celeste Vanguard, you have learned the sword in secret and transgressed the Kodect.
00:10:02Do you confess?
00:10:06I learned it, and I stand by my choice.
00:10:10Eight years ago, Ragnar committed the same sin.
00:10:13I stripped her of her power with my own hands, and that was the only thing that saved this house
00:10:17from ruin.
00:10:18And now, another woman of this house has taken up the blade in secret!
00:10:26Father, let me bear her punishment.
00:10:28All of it.
00:10:30I beg you, she's your only granddaughter.
00:10:33Do not beg for her.
00:10:34Now, stripper of her knightly craft and her arcane core, show the church that House Vand remains pure in its
00:10:41faith.
00:10:46Look, she's the one who's met for her.
00:10:47Look at her on her own hands.
00:10:49Look at her.
00:10:57I'm not afraid of her.
00:10:58I'm not afraid of her.
00:11:09Oh, my God.
00:11:37Cassian, have you taken leave of your senses?
00:11:40You dare defy the Patriot, betray your own blood?
00:11:45Eight years ago, I could not protect my sister, and this is what became of her.
00:11:49Today, I swear I will not let my daughter share her fate.
00:11:53Let her leave this place in safety, and you may do with me as you will.
00:12:04Cassian, if you walk out that door, you are no son of mine.
00:12:10Forgive me, Father, but I am taking Celeste away from here.
00:12:17Siege them!
00:12:19Siege them!
00:12:37Banquered at House Vanguard.
00:12:40And no one told me.
00:12:55Gareth Draven, you burn my house banners.
00:12:59You bring Holy See Elder into my hall, unbid.
00:13:03Does the Holy See know what you have done here today?
00:13:06House Vanguard's banners?
00:13:09Your house has been a stain on the Knightly Order for years.
00:13:13That ragged cloth should have been burnt long ago.
00:13:18Aldric, you are old.
00:13:20You lack the strength to command your house.
00:13:23The Holy See's favor has left you. Your honor is spent.
00:13:26The Holy See has decided House Draven shall assume all rights and dominion over Vanguard lands.
00:13:33House Vanzard has remained wholly faithful to the Holy See.
00:13:36The See's will is not to be questioned.
00:13:40And if I refuse...
00:13:48Refuse? With what?
00:13:51With those soft knights behind you?
00:13:54Mind your mouth!
00:13:56Aldric, I'll be honest with you.
00:14:00A few years ago, I would have fled at your shadow.
00:14:03But now, you're old.
00:14:08And old men are useless.
00:14:10Gareth!
00:14:15That said, Aldric, I have always admired you.
00:14:18Truly, when the Codex demanded it, you crippled your own daughter with your bare hands.
00:14:29For that, I shall grant you an honorable resolution, per the Holy See's law, judgment by the Divine.
00:14:36You and your men against me, and three of my elite knights.
00:14:41Should you prevail?
00:14:43I withdraw with my people, never to set foot on Vanguard domain ever again.
00:14:48But if you lose...
00:14:51Everything House Vanguard owns...
00:14:55Becomes...
00:14:56Mine.
00:15:03I accept.
00:15:07The enemy is here.
00:15:09Stay or leave.
00:15:10Your choice.
00:15:20All right.
00:15:22Who's first?
00:15:23Kaolin of House Vanguard.
00:15:25Let the Radiance bear witness to this duel.
00:15:54All right.
00:15:54Aldric!
00:15:55This is of the younger you have raised?
00:15:57There are no true knights left among them.
00:16:01These men are formidable.
00:16:03Our young ones cannot match them.
00:16:04I will have to fight.
00:16:05If I win, perhaps your grandfather will show you mercy.
00:16:09His footwork is masterful.
00:16:10Kaolin's loss was no shame.
00:16:12But it has flaws.
00:16:13Let me fight.
00:16:14I can win.
00:16:16You.
00:16:17What, you think you can master a man's hard-won skill just by watching from the sidelines?
00:16:21Exactly.
00:16:21What could a woman possibly do?
00:16:24You are not even a knight, courting death.
00:16:28Not a word.
00:16:29You will not fight.
00:16:31If they discover you are a woman, the Holy See will declare you a heretic and execute you on the
00:16:35spot.
00:16:36You and this entire house...
00:16:38Destroyed.
00:16:41Who is next?
00:16:43Surely you have not run out of challenges already.
00:16:46Father, let me stand.
00:16:49What are you thinking about?
00:16:51If I win, I would ask the house to spare my daughter.
00:16:54You dare threaten me with that.
00:16:56I am not dead yet.
00:16:58This house does not lack for fighting men.
00:17:09Yes!
00:17:10Victory is ours!
00:17:12No.
00:17:13Grandfather will lose.
00:17:14What would a woman know of such matters?
00:17:17Exactly.
00:17:17She has barely held a sword and she presumes to critique true knights.
00:17:21What is her?
00:17:24What?
00:17:40The patriarch?
00:17:41The patriarch?
00:17:42The patriarch could not evade that?
00:17:43Could he not even see through the man's footwork?
00:17:46No. He saw it.
00:17:49But his body could not keep up with his mind.
00:17:52In the end, age has claimed him.
00:17:58This? This is it!
00:18:00The old Lion of Vanguard, nothing but a mouthful of broken teeth!
00:18:06Father, let me take this fight.
00:18:09If I win, I beg you, please spare Celeste.
00:18:20I'm going to die.
00:18:25I'm going to die.
00:18:35You're not going to die.
00:18:37We're going to die.
00:18:38I'm going to die.
00:18:39I'm going to die.
00:18:42I'm going to die.
00:18:44Patriarch lost, and Cassian is a great sword knight, slower than any other. How can he possibly win?
00:18:58This fight, it is hopeless.
00:19:03No, father will win. This fight is not about speed, patience, and the right moment to strike. That is what
00:19:09matters.
00:19:10Anyone can talk a good fight from the sidelines, get you in the ring. I doubt you could even lift
00:19:15a sword.
00:19:34He won! He won!
00:19:35He won! He actually won. One strike. Just one strike!
00:19:41Yeah!
00:19:46Oh. I did not expect. House Vanguard still has someone who can fight.
00:19:51There is much you do not expect.
00:19:57We shall see how long you keep that time.
00:20:13There is much you do not expect.
00:20:15There is much you do not expect.
00:20:15There is much you do not expect.
00:20:15There is much you do not expect.
00:20:16There is much you do not expect.
00:20:17There is much you do not expect.
00:20:18There is much you do not expect.
00:20:19There is much you do not expect.
00:20:19There is much you do not expect.
00:20:19There is much you do not expect.
00:20:19There is much you do not expect.
00:20:19There is much you do not expect.
00:20:20There is much you do not expect.
00:20:21There is much you do not expect.
00:20:23There is much you do not expect.
00:20:26There is much you do not expect.
00:20:45Do not fret. I am still standing.
00:20:51I grant you your strength, Cassian. But you can't last much longer.
00:20:57Spare me your pranel. Next.
00:21:01Very well. Enough of these children's game. Let us show you what true power looks like.
00:21:08Father, let me stand. Please.
00:21:15I am proud of you, Celeste, for having the courage to step forward.
00:21:20But this is not a fight for you. Stand down.
00:21:23I will not stand by and watch you die.
00:21:26How's vanguards so desperate now?
00:21:29They're letting kids who can barely lift a sword come die for them?
00:21:39Father, what are you doing?
00:21:41Why are you putting null magic shackles on me?
00:21:45This belonged to your mother.
00:21:47I had meant to give it to you on your wedding day.
00:21:51Father, what are you saying? You are poisoned.
00:21:54You cannot fight anymore.
00:21:55Do not worry. I will win. I will protect you. I promise.
00:22:03Take her away.
00:22:05Father!
00:22:12Father!
00:22:19Don't play with your food.
00:22:22End it quick.
00:22:23End it quick.
00:22:41End it quick.
00:22:50Wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:23:19Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:23:41Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:24:09Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:24:29Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:24:30Cassian Vanguard is the last card your house has, isn't it?
00:24:34Father, please, no more.
00:24:36For your filial piety, I will be merciful.
00:24:39I will give your father a chance.
00:24:43Endure until the sand runs out without falling,
00:24:47and I will call it your victory.
00:24:49What say you?
00:24:51Those are your words.
00:24:55Father, you made me a promise.
00:24:58If I win, you will spare Celeste.
00:25:07No.
00:25:11Please, no.
00:25:26I cannot fall.
00:25:28Not until the sand runs out.
00:25:30Three strikes.
00:25:32Send him.
00:25:33Three strikes.
00:25:35I cannot fall.
00:25:48Please, no.
00:25:56No.
00:25:56No.
00:25:57No.
00:25:57No.
00:25:57No.
00:25:58No.
00:26:01No.
00:26:02No.
00:26:03Father, I confess, I will take the punishment.
00:26:06Just stop!
00:26:09Just a little more.
00:26:11I cannot fall here.
00:26:14Father, yield!
00:26:15I beg you, stop fighting!
00:26:19Two.
00:26:32Even if I die, I die after the sand runs out.
00:26:37No, please, no.
00:26:54One.
00:26:58Father!
00:27:02Father, please, no more.
00:27:08Why did grandfather do that to Auntie?
00:27:10Is she not his own daughter?
00:27:15Father, will you ever do the same to Selyste?
00:27:20No, never.
00:27:23I will always be with you.
00:27:26I will always protect you.
00:27:33Forgive me, Selyste.
00:27:38Father can no longer protect you.
00:27:46Cassian!
00:27:48If you walk out that door, you are no son of mine.
00:27:52Forgive me, Father, but I am taking Selyste away from here.
00:28:01If any of you lay another hand on my father, I will destroy every last one of you!
00:28:10You!
00:28:12Oh, I am so scared!
00:28:17I will do more than lay a hand on him.
00:28:19I will watch him die!
00:28:24Die!
00:28:30Die!
00:28:31Die!
00:29:01You die first!
00:29:19You caught death!
00:29:43She defeated him so easily, a man even Cassian could not overcome.
00:29:48But is she not a woman?
00:29:54Since when did House Vanguard breed a lad this formidable?
00:30:03Kid, you have some talent.
00:30:06How about serving me?
00:30:09Name your price.
00:30:12Let!
00:30:13A title?
00:30:14Gold?
00:30:17For women?
00:30:19Whatever House Vandlar can't give you, I can!
00:30:23Sticking with a dying house?
00:30:25That's not a future.
00:30:27Good.
00:30:28He still does not know I am a woman.
00:30:30I cannot risk speaking again.
00:30:32So, you're refusing me?
00:30:40You brought this upon yourselves.
00:30:55Dragon!
00:30:57Once more, become my power!
00:31:01Once more, become my power!
00:31:28It's a dragon!
00:31:30How could he possess me?
00:31:31The power of a dragon!
00:31:33Despair?
00:31:34Thank your own ancestors for this.
00:31:36The ones who slay that dragon.
00:31:44Only now can I devour its heart, and claim its power.
00:31:49I am the master.
00:31:49Now!
00:31:50Do you have any last words?
00:31:59No!
00:32:01No!
00:32:04No!
00:32:08Celestia!
00:32:09what a pity with her talent if only someone had taught her sooner her
00:32:15potential would have been limitless grandfather it's not too late to teach
00:32:18her now
00:32:29let thy flesh become living flame pour thy magic deep into every limb
00:32:51this is blazing flash step aldrich's signature movement technique from his youth
00:32:57let flames dance upon my blade let every strike draw like thunder
00:33:03let flames take form let blade become a fiery dragon
00:33:22so
00:33:24so
00:33:39You cannot even wield the Dragon Slayer sword art, yet you still dare challenge me?
00:33:45How foolish.
00:33:47Now all that remains is to wipe out House Vanguard, the descendants of the Dragon Slowing Knights.
00:33:53With the Dragon's power coursing through me, I shall be invincible.
00:34:00Knights of House Vanguard, fight him to the death!
00:34:22Dragon Slayer sword art isn't about brute force for a one-hit kill, nor is it about fancy tricks.
00:34:26It's about relentless, precise strikes.
00:34:30In an instant, you need to strike a hundred times, a thousand times, all along the exact same path.
00:34:38Blade and edge.
00:34:40One day, even dragons will fear you.
00:34:46All along the exact same path, blade and edge.

00:35:10Game 1-
00:35:12I don't know.
00:35:53Who? Who are you? Where did such a warrior arise from House Vanguard? Why have I never known of you
00:36:01across all these years?
00:36:02She actually did it. Our ancestors, Dragon Street, are sword art. Reborn in her hands.
00:36:09The cruel faith that she is female. If Ghast finds her true identity, all is ruined.
00:36:14Grandfather, don't worry. No one will ever know she's a woman.
00:36:19I have served the Holy Site for over 40 years. I never thought I would live to see the Dragon
00:36:25Slasher sword art with my own eyes.
00:36:28House Vanguard truly is the Dragon Slayer's bloodline.
00:36:31After this battle, the entire knightly class will have to reconsider their standard.
00:36:36Save me! Save me! Save me! Save me!
00:36:42Save me! Save me! Save me!
00:36:45Save me! Save me! Save me!
00:37:20Save me! Save me! Change me! Save me! Save me! Save me!
00:37:28shall be stripped of her Arcanic core.
00:37:31Her house shall be stripped of its knightly title,
00:37:34cast out from the Holy See's protection,
00:37:36and never permitted to rise again.
00:37:40Garrus, you couldn't beat a woman in a fight,
00:37:42so now you resort to this filthy...
00:37:44Filthy!
00:37:45The Codex is the Codex.
00:37:48Knightly honor is built upon iron law,
00:37:50not upon a woman's skirt.
00:37:52You didn't remember a thing about honor
00:37:54when you were butchering House Vanguard on Mr. Weaner.
00:37:57But when a woman brings you to your knees,
00:38:00suddenly you remember knightly dignity.
00:38:03Silence!
00:38:05You have no right to speak of knights.
00:38:07You lack even the right to be one.
00:38:12You hold honor the knight's due,
00:38:14yet honor springs not from man's flesh alone.
00:38:19If honor be for males only,
00:38:21if honor wear an Adam's bite,
00:38:23this is no honor,
00:38:25but tyranny.
00:38:27So what?
00:38:30As long as you are of House Vanguard,
00:38:32you will obey the Codex.
00:38:33You and your house.
00:38:35Not one of you will escape.
00:38:37I am taking House Vanguard out of here today.
00:38:41Let anyone who dares stop me try.
00:38:46House Vanguard,
00:38:48do you mean to defy the Holy Side?
00:38:50Enough.
00:38:56Celeste,
00:38:57lower your sword.
00:39:00Grandfather?
00:39:03Celeste,
00:39:03you speak the truth.
00:39:05A knight's honor lies not in his flesh,
00:39:08nor in the sword he strikes with.
00:39:10Honor lives in the ones he stands to protect.
00:39:13I can protect all of you.
00:39:15And the herdsmen on our lands,
00:39:16the boatmen,
00:39:17the farmers,
00:39:18what of them?
00:39:20They should not be buried for our choices.
00:39:23I am the head of this house.
00:39:25Every commoner on our soil is my responsibility.
00:39:39Elder,
00:39:40the sin of Celestia,
00:39:42let me,
00:39:43as head of the house,
00:39:44bear it in her stead.
00:39:55As the father of the offender,
00:39:57I too must bear the punishment.
00:40:00Father!
00:40:02Celeste,
00:40:03I have wronged you all these years,
00:40:06forcing you to suppress your talent,
00:40:09forcing you to live against your own nature.
00:40:12From this day forward,
00:40:14we are free.
00:40:16By the Codex,
00:40:18a woman's sword sin.
00:40:19The Patriarch bears her punishment.
00:40:2130 splashes.
00:40:23The father,
00:40:2320.
00:40:24Done now.
00:40:25Death is no objection.
00:40:27No!
00:40:27This is my sin!
00:40:29Punish me!
00:40:37Stop!
00:40:41I, Celeste of House Vanguard,
00:40:43accept the punishment.
00:40:46Don't be foolish!
00:40:48You're just a child!
00:40:49What do you think you're doing?
00:40:53Don't worry.
00:40:54Your father is a great sword knight.
00:40:57Thick-skinned and tough.
00:40:59Those whips can't hurt me.
00:41:01This started because of me.
00:41:04It must end with me.
00:41:07A true knight never hides behind others.
00:41:11You taught me that.
00:41:16Gareth Draven,
00:41:17I, Celeste of House Vanguard,
00:41:20accept the punishment.
00:41:24But,
00:41:26I won this duel of divine judgment.
00:41:28You lost.
00:41:29You will leave Vanguard lands.
00:41:32Now.
00:41:34Of course.
00:41:35A loss is a loss.
00:41:36I accept it.
00:41:38As long as you submit to your punishment,
00:41:40I will withdraw my men at once.
00:41:44Not a moment longer.
00:41:47I don't trust you.
00:41:50I don't trust you.
00:41:53The church elders can vouch for me.
00:41:56Isn't that right, honored elders?
00:42:05The church of the Holy Radiance
00:42:08never tolerates a broken oath.
00:42:12You may rest assured.
00:42:17This is the arena of divine judgment.
00:42:20Any oath sworn here is protected by the church.
00:42:24Should anyone dare to break it,
00:42:25the church will strip him of everything
00:42:26by its own hand.
00:42:29Not enough.
00:42:31I want you to swear an oath.
00:42:35By the Holy Radiance,
00:42:36I, Gareth Draven,
00:42:37swear to keep my word.
00:42:40Satisfied?
00:42:52In the name of the warrior,
00:42:54I charge you to be bold.
00:42:57In the name of the shield,
00:43:00I charge you to protect the young
00:43:02and the innocent.
00:43:07In the name of the knight,
00:43:09I charge you to be unstoppable.
00:43:30Celeste, no!
00:43:49Gareth, leave now!
00:44:01Fool, did you really think I would keep my word?
00:44:09How naive.
00:44:11Now that you're completely crippled, no one can stand against me.
00:44:16Gareth Draven!
00:44:17You swore your oath upon this judgment ground.
00:44:21The church's witness yet lingers in our ears.
00:44:25Will you now break your vow?
00:44:29Faith? The church? I couldn't care less.
00:44:32The name of the holy radiance, the iron law of the codex, mere chains to bind fools.
00:44:38I kill everyone here today, and tomorrow the holy side will hear a perfect story.
00:44:44House vanguard colluding with hericks, murdering elders, plotting apostasy.
00:44:48Who would dare speak a word against me?
00:45:00Gareth, you monster!
00:45:02Divine Rebesha will find you!
00:45:05Patience.
00:45:06Let me deal with this woman who dared defy her betters first.
00:45:10Then I'll deal with the rest of you.
00:45:12House vanguard bears no blood for kneeling death!
00:45:15Charge with me!
00:45:24Callin!
00:45:27Callin!
00:45:30Callin!
00:45:33Callin!
00:45:34Callin!
00:45:34Callin!
00:45:37Callin!
00:45:41Callin!
00:45:43Callin!
00:45:44Callin!
00:45:45Callin!
00:45:46Callin!
00:45:46Grandpa! No!
00:45:50Ragnar, take her and go!
00:45:54Whatever happens, protect Celestal.
00:46:10Where are they? Search!
00:46:13Tear the ground apart if you have to! Find her!
00:46:20A woman with her hands crippled and a witless wreck won't get far.
00:46:25Yes, sir!
00:46:31Celeste, protect Celeste.
00:46:35Ragnar, take her and go!
00:46:39Whatever happens, protect Celestal.
00:46:43Look!
00:46:51Auntie, enough.
00:46:53Put me down. Save yourself.
00:46:56Protect Celeste.
00:46:58Protect Celeste.
00:47:03I'm done.
00:47:05Grandfather is dead.
00:47:07Father, Callan.
00:47:09All of them.
00:47:10Just go, Auntie. Leave me. Please.
00:47:15Footprints. They are near.
00:47:22Auntie, listen to me.
00:47:23You run alone. You still have a chance.
00:47:26Or we both die here.
00:47:30Ragnar, take her and go!
00:47:33Whatever happens, protect Celestal.
00:47:40Protect Celeste.
00:47:46Do not come out. Stay here.
00:47:51Auntie!
00:47:52What in the-
00:48:12I thought she was something. All show, no steal.
00:48:20You want to die!
00:48:37Tell me, where is that woman?
00:48:41Protect Celeste.
00:48:43Protect Celeste.
00:48:47Run! That way! Go! Go!
00:48:51No!
00:49:05Auntie. Kept you safe.
00:49:07This time.
00:49:29Run!
00:49:30Run, then!
00:49:31Why stop?
00:49:32Come back nicely with us.
00:49:34We might leave you a whole corpse.
00:49:37Tell Gathri Drapan, as long as Celeste Vanguard draws breath,
00:49:42he had best keep his neck washed.
00:49:56From this height.
00:49:58A broken thing with no magic left.
00:50:00The fall or the current will kill her.
00:50:02She won't live.
00:50:05Report back.
00:50:06Report back. Tell the Lord.
00:50:25Still breathing? You're hard to kill.
00:50:33Interesting.
00:50:34Fine.
00:50:35You are not meant to die.
00:50:47Awake.
00:50:51My hands.
00:50:54Your hands work? Barely.
00:50:58But don't be happy too early.
00:50:59Your arcane core is gone.
00:51:01No magic for you.
00:51:07Drink it.
00:51:11No!
00:51:14I'm sorry.
00:51:19Do you know what a puppet is?
00:51:21Do you know what a puppet is?
00:51:21Wood carved into a man.
00:51:23Strings tied to the joints.
00:51:25The puppeteer pulls.
00:51:27It moves.
00:51:27It walks.
00:51:28It swings a sword.
00:51:29It looks alive.
00:51:30But inside, nothing.
00:51:32The human body is the same.
00:51:33A vessel.
00:51:34I can remake you.
00:51:36I can remake you.
00:51:36But I can forge you into a vessel that holds the elements themselves.
00:51:40Do not mistake me.
00:51:42I am no saint.
00:51:44I am what the world calls a heretic.
00:51:46A monster.
00:51:48A witch.
00:51:50Are you okay?
00:51:52Still want me to try?
00:52:00Yes, do it.
00:52:01The pain will be considerable.
00:52:03You might turn to blood and water.
00:52:05Not even bones left.
00:52:06If it gives me back my strength enough to go back and kill them, I will try anything.
00:52:11Fine.
00:52:12You chose this.
00:52:16You chose this.
00:52:30Still alive.
00:52:35The experiment worked.
00:52:37Your body no longer needs an arcane core.
00:52:39You draw on the elements directly.
00:52:41In theory.
00:52:43But...
00:53:13That way.
00:53:14Go!
00:53:22Stop!
00:53:23Stop it now!
00:53:27I...
00:53:27I only moved it a little.
00:53:29A little?
00:53:30You think you are still that ordinary mage?
00:53:32You are a walking staff.
00:53:34Every move is high magic.
00:53:36I am going out to fetch some water.
00:53:38Stay put.
00:53:42Here.
00:53:43The magic light came from this direction.
00:53:48Well, well.
00:53:49It's you.
00:53:51Didn't expect this little bonus.
00:53:53Sybil.
00:53:54Ten years a fugitive.
00:53:55Hiding right under our noses.
00:53:59Caesar!
00:54:08You think a new name hides you?
00:54:10You should have stayed home, had children and cooked meals.
00:54:14Instead you learned alchemy.
00:54:16That is your sin.
00:54:18I learned alchemy to cure the village children's fever.
00:54:21A dozen of them lived because of me.
00:54:22I only refused to marry the drunk my father chose.
00:54:25For that you hunted me ten years?
00:54:27Take your heretic's lies to the devil!
00:54:36Who... who are you?
00:54:38The one you seek.
00:54:40Take word back to Gareth Draven.
00:54:42Tell him Celeste Vanguard has returned.
00:54:48What will you do next?
00:54:50This place is burned.
00:54:52They will come again.
00:54:55Well, I can't stay here anyway.
00:54:57Might as well go with you.
00:55:02Attention!
00:55:03Attention!
00:55:04The holy seat's decree!
00:55:06House Vanguard, traitors to the church.
00:55:09Consorting with heretics, murdering elders, hiding a sword-bearing woman.
00:55:13Stripped of title, exiled.
00:55:17Their daughter Celeste Vanguard, witch, murderer of Lord Draven, killer of three elders.
00:55:22Reward 100 gold for her whereabouts.
00:55:25Shelter her and suffer the same penalty.
00:55:28A hundred gold coins!
00:55:30Alive or dead!
00:55:31House Vanguard?
00:55:32The Dragonslayer's house?
00:55:34Long fall.
00:55:35I heard a woman named Celeste learn the sword.
00:55:37Killed church elders.
00:55:38A woman with a sword?
00:55:39That is blasphemy!
00:55:41She deserves punishment.
00:55:42It's true.
00:55:43Lord Draven took their lands.
00:55:45Cleaning house for the Holy See.
00:55:46Not yet.
00:55:47Wait for the festival.
00:55:48Garak will be there.
00:55:58Gathreth, how goes the work?
00:56:02Gathreth, how goes the work?
00:56:05Your Holiness.
00:56:07The treason of house Vanguard.
00:56:09God, I bring more proof to your feet.
00:56:13Come forth.
00:56:22What is this?
00:56:23Do not be afraid, your holiness.
00:56:25My master is very pleased with your title, and he's very pleased with your body.
00:56:31So I must ask you, give your body to my master.
00:56:37What?
00:56:39Ah!
00:56:47What?
00:56:48Ah!
00:56:58Good.
00:57:00This body is old, but it will serve.
00:57:04Welcome, my master.
00:57:09My lord, your holiness, urgent report.
00:57:13The search party has found Celeste Vanguard.
00:57:15She is still alive?
00:57:17Good.
00:57:19I will kill her myself.
00:57:22She will wish she had never been born.
00:57:42Wrong.
00:57:43Wrong.
00:57:43What is it?
00:57:45His holiness.
00:57:47Something's wrong with his error.
00:57:52That's not the error of a living man.
00:57:59That is the breath of a homilis.
00:58:04Ten years ago, alchemy had a secret revival.
00:58:09Someone gathered the finest alchemists.
00:58:13They created the homilis and the fear.
00:58:16A thousand lives sacrificed to that experiment.
00:58:21After it was done, the summoner vanished.
00:58:24The homilis vanished.
00:58:25The homilis vanished.
00:58:26Then the church outlawed soul-alchemy.
00:58:30My master, he couldn't bear what they were doing, so he ran.
00:58:33He told me the truth.
00:58:35That thing in the flask, it devours souls, steals bodies, and it's almost immortal.
00:58:43Gareth, the one you seek, she is here.
00:59:04CELESTE VANGUARDE
00:59:05CELESTE VANGUARDE, SHOW YOURSELF!
00:59:06CELESTE?
00:59:07The heretic who killed the church elders?
00:59:09A woman, they say.
00:59:11Learned the sword, spit on the gods.
00:59:13Such a sinner dares come to the crown city, she curts death.
00:59:20Heretics!
00:59:21Get out of the crown city!
00:59:22Lord Draven, kill her!
00:59:25You came, a broken thing.
00:59:27No hands, no magic.
00:59:30We came to die?
00:59:32Today, before all these witnesses, I will execute you myself.
00:59:37You blast better!
00:59:39This sword, for House Vanguard.
00:59:47Lord Draven.
00:59:48Lord Draven was taken down by a woman, so easily.
01:00:13Lord Draven was taken down by a woman, so easily.
01:00:17Without my master's new gift, you might have killed me.
01:00:21Lord Draven, he is not dead.
01:00:24His head came off.
01:00:26How is he still alive?
01:00:28A monster! A monster!
01:00:30Someone save us!
01:00:32All of you, leave this place!
01:00:34You ruined our plan.
01:00:35You shamed me before my master.
01:00:42No matter.
01:00:43I have more games to play.
01:01:10Why?
01:01:27Hush.
01:01:28It doesn't hurt at all.
01:01:30Father!
01:01:34Kaelin.
01:01:35Grandfather.
01:01:37What's wrong?
01:01:38Go on.
01:01:38Chop!
01:01:39Isn't this what you wanted?
01:01:41Revenge?
01:01:42Come on!
01:01:43Chop off your grandfather's head, your fathers, your cousins, every last Vanguard skull!
01:01:51Chop off your grandfather's head, your fathers, your cousins, every last Vanguard skull!
01:01:58You turned them into...
01:01:59Took a lot of work, turning them into this.
01:02:02Your father, strong will.
01:02:04Burned for three days and three nights before he finally took form.
01:02:07Your grandfather, even more stubborn, cursed me till his very last breath.
01:02:11Well then, what now?
01:02:13You kill them, or I kill you?
01:02:17Cell, stay, run.
01:02:23Run, run, now.
01:02:32You drained their organic cause, their life force.
01:02:36You turned them into these things.
01:02:39Neither human nor monster.
01:02:41The Wood Witch knows her craft.
01:02:44A lot of ingredients went into them.
01:02:49Look, they still recognize her.
01:02:52A father's love, a brother's love.
01:02:54How touching.
01:02:56So, what now?
01:02:57Kill them, or let me kill you?
01:02:59Who are you?
01:03:22You.
01:03:27I yield! I yield!
01:03:34My lord! Save me! Please save me!
01:03:53Useless. Become part of me instead.
01:04:04You named Salata, yes?
01:04:13The last blood of House Vanguard.
01:04:17The heir of the Dragonshare Sword Art.
01:04:21And that little Syria forged you into a vessel for all elements.
01:04:26Perfect ingredients. So much better than that weakling Gareth.
01:05:02Good. Very good. That useless Gareth, at least he served one final purpose before the end. Luring you out. Join
01:05:13me. Live forever with me. Rule this world with me. Your strength for my wisdom.
01:05:21No one will stop us. No.
01:05:28What a pity. You do not know what you face.
01:05:42I am the strongest thing in this world. No man can defeat me!
01:06:12The last thing in this world is someone who is going to represent me.
01:06:15The last thing in this world is the only place in this world.
01:06:24No! I am the strongest no man! No man can defeat me!
01:06:29No man can defeat me. A pity. I am a woman.
01:06:50Do not celebrate too soon. That thing, it is not a beast, not a spell, not anything that can be
01:06:55killed.
01:06:56It is the hunger of men. Greed, ambition, the thirst for power.
01:07:02As long as there are those who hunger for power, it may return.
01:07:07Then we beat it again, no matter how many times.
01:07:12You really are.
01:07:17And what becomes of them.
01:07:56Wait!
01:07:59Perhaps there is a way to turn them back.
01:08:04Only whatever it is, I will try.
01:08:09I knew you would say that.
01:08:35Stay in there a while. All of you.
01:08:41Come on.
01:08:56Celeste Vanguard!
01:09:00She saved us! She killed the monster!
01:09:03But she is a woman. How can a woman...
01:09:06You beat her!
01:09:09samo
