00:00Alara! You're... you're leaking milk! You're not even married!
00:06Your milk smells so sweet.
00:08It does. Makes my mouth water.
00:12Why don't you give us a taste?
00:14Tell me the truth, Alara. Have you ever been pregnant?
00:18No! Never! I don't know why this is happening. Mother, believe me!
00:22Stop lying. If you've never been pregnant, you shouldn't be making milk.
00:27You must have done something filthy.
00:30I've never been pregnant. This started two years ago. I've tried everything in secret. Nothing works.
00:36I've known Alara all her life. She's not that kind of girl. Maybe something really is wrong.
00:43What illness makes an unmarried girl produce milk? I heard it can happen after an abortion. Is that what you
00:49did?
00:49I've never had an abortion! I've never even held a man's hand! Mother, I've done nothing to shame this family!
00:55Please believe me!
00:56Of course I know. You're wondering why you started leaking today.
01:01Because I put milk crows in your water.
01:03Why would you do that?!
01:05I was trying to find out which man did this to you. I believed you were a good girl. And
01:11now, you've struck your own mother to protect him.
01:15After everything mother has done for you! You're a disgrace to this family! Get out!
01:21You did this to me. Father gave you this house on one condition that you take care of me. You
01:27never did. You humiliated me. If anyone should leave, it's you!
01:33I may be your stepmother, but I've always loved you. If you've brought shame on this family, then I've failed
01:39you.
01:41I've failed your father.
01:43This isn't your fault, mother. If father were alive, he'd throw her out himself. He'd never let her disgrace us!
01:50Alara, get out!
01:51You all saw what Alara did. She has disgraced the Morgan name. So, before you all, I cast Alara Morgan
01:58out of this family. From this day on, she is no longer a Morgan.
02:06Well, look who it is. Sweet little Alara, all alone. Poor thing. A storm like this? You shouldn't be out
02:13here alone. Come wait it out with us.
02:16Stay away from me!
02:17Don't be nervous. We just want a taste of that sweet milk.
02:24Don't be scared. We only want one little taste.
02:33Are you all right? I'm fine. Thank you.
02:35Is it true you have milk?
02:37What do you want? Don't be frightened. I'm the Blackwood family steward. His lordship needs a wetmerse at the castle.
02:44If you're willing, come with me.
02:46The Earl of Blackwood.
02:47The Blackwoods live in a castle on the cliffs at the far end of the forest. They say the Blackwoods
02:53are rich enough to rival a kingdom, but no one's ever seen the Earl.
02:57We'll give you ten gold coins for a single feeding.
03:01Ten? Ten? For one feeding?
03:04Ten gold coins for one feeding. With that, I could start over. No one would ever mistreat me again. I'll
03:11do it.
03:12His lordship is inside. Call for me if you need anything.
03:24The Earl is a dragon?
03:27Stay back. Please. Stay back.
03:30Who are you? Why does your scent pull me in like this?
03:33Stay back! I don't want to be your wet nurse. Let me go!
03:38There it is. Don't be afraid. I won't hurt you. Let me bring your milk, and I'll give you anything
03:44you want.
03:45I... I want to leave.
03:47No. Not until you agree.
03:49If there's no way out, then I want a hundred gold coins.
03:52Done.
03:53All right. Come on.
04:00This feels... weird.
04:06What happened? Why'd he just collapse?
04:12In any case, I've done everything I was supposed to do. Now I'm going to collect the gold coins that
04:16belong to me.
04:27I'm a man again. That woman. Could she be the one?
04:32Steward!
04:33My lord, you've changed. You're human. You re-rejected other woman's milk, but hers, it broke the curse.
04:39Every blackwood heir is born under the same curse.
04:42Trapped in dragon form until he drinks the milk of the woman meant for him.
04:46I thought I'd never be human.
04:48Where is she?
04:49I thought she'd failed, so I let her go. I was wrong, my lord. I accept whatever punishment you see
04:54fit.
04:55Find her. Now.
04:57Yes, my lord.
05:00I don't care where you are. I will find you.
05:05My new life starts now.
05:13Money, handsome men, good food.
05:17This is the life.
05:30Mother, Martha, why am I tied up? What are you doing?
05:35My dear girl, the whole town is talking. An unmarried woman with milk soaking through her dress in broad daylight.
05:41Scandal like that travels fast. Your reputation is gone.
05:44You did this. You put something in my water. Shut your mouth!
05:49You lying little wretch. Mother found you a way out.
05:53Mr. Piglet is willing to marry you despite your little scandal.
05:57Barnabin Pippet! He's 60!
06:00So he's 60. He's rich.
06:02Marry him, and you'll live like a lady.
06:04No! He's oldest, and all 20 of his wives died. No one even knows how. He's a monster. You can't
06:08give me to him!
06:09One gold coin. That's what Mr. Piglet offered for you. Do you have any idea what that means to this
06:12family?
06:13Mother, please, don't give me to that horrible old man. I can get you money.
06:16My dear girl, this is the life you were meant for. You will marry him.
06:20You're the woman Mr. Piglet sent. There she is, his bride.
06:25I won't marry him. I won't. Let me go.
06:28So you're the girl with the milk.
06:30No, I can't. They're lying.
06:32The milk is healthy. Mr. Piglet will be very pleased.
06:40Take her away.
06:42No!
06:45Look who's awake!
06:47Get away from me, you sick old man!
06:50Don't come any closer!
06:52Be a good girl and let me have a taste.
06:56Don't touch me!
06:57Whatever you paid my mother, I'll pay it back.
07:00One gold coin, I'll give you five.
07:02Ten, my gold!
07:04Where is he?
07:06Gold? You?
07:08Your own family couldn't wait to be rid of you.
07:12Be a good wife and you'll live well.
07:16My other wives never learned their place.
07:19Don't make the same mistake.
07:23Help!
07:25Somebody open the door!
07:32My lord, I found her.
07:34Where is she?
07:35Her stepmother sold her to Barnaby Pickett.
07:37He's holding her at his estate.
07:39I'll summon the guards.
07:40No.
07:41That'll take too long.
07:42I'm going myself.
07:48Ungrateful little wretch.
07:50Chain of hands and feet!
07:53Don't touch me!
07:54Leave me alone!
07:55No!
07:56Please!
07:56Let me go!
07:58I'll pay you anything you want.
08:01If you won't give yourself to me,
08:04I'll drag you out in front of everyone
08:06and take what I bought.
08:08Help!
08:09Somebody help me!
08:11Scream all you want.
08:12No one's coming.
08:22Sweet.
08:26Hold her down!
08:27All four of you!
08:28Don't let her move!
08:29By tonight, you'll know exactly what a man like me can do
08:32and you'll never want anyone else.
08:50A dragon!
08:53Here!
08:58You're the Earl of Blackwood.
09:01You're that dragon.
09:03Your milk broke the curse.
09:05It turned me back into a man.
09:06Don't eat me!
09:08I can pay you!
09:10Name your price!
09:11Who ain't put me down!
09:14Which finger touched her?
09:16I'm a Black Hood merchant!
09:17The Earl knows me!
09:19You can't do this!
09:20I am the Earl.
09:21Mercy, my Lord!
09:23I didn't know she was under your protection!
09:26Agatha Morgan sold her to me!
09:28This was her idea!
09:30What did you do to her?
09:32Nothing!
09:32I never even touched her!
09:33I swear!
09:34Forgive me, my Lord!
09:36Take my gold!
09:37All of it!
09:39My Lord,
09:40I swear I never touched her!
09:43Agatha Morgan came to me!
09:45She said her daughter had milk and I lost my head!
09:48Please!
09:49Spare me!
09:52Did he touch you here?
09:53No!
09:54Only her face!
09:55Once!
09:56That was all!
09:57I swear, my Lord!
09:58Allura, can you forgive him?
09:59No.
10:00He deserves no forgiveness.
10:02Then it's settled.
10:03No!
10:04Please don't eat me!
10:06I'll give you a fortune!
10:08There are 3,000 furs in my warehouse and a chest of gold coins in my cellar!
10:12Take them all!
10:21Help me here!
10:23I don't want to die!
10:25Open this door!
10:26The house is coming down!
10:29Help!
10:32Thank you, my Lord.
10:49My Lord!
10:51Miss Morgan!
10:53Thank heavens you're back!
10:58I want to go home.
11:00You can't.
11:01Not yet.
11:02My milk turned you human.
11:05Why am I still here?
11:09Miss Morgan, his Lordship isn't keeping you prisoner.
11:13The Blackwood Curse is more complicated than you know.
11:15What do you mean?
11:16Every Blackwood heir is born under the same curse.
11:19His Lordship can take human form only after drinking the milk of the woman destined for him,
11:23but one feeding doesn't last.
11:25Until the curse is broken, he'll need your milk again and again.
11:28Otherwise, he could turn back at any moment.
11:30So I have to keep feeding?
11:33Money, power, a home no one can take from you.
11:36Whatever you want, it's yours.
11:38Your stepmother, your stepsister, your father's house.
11:41I'll see to all of it.
11:43Fine.
11:43On two conditions.
11:44First, we go into town now.
11:46I'm settling things with my stepmother and stepsister.
11:48Second, no one can know about the feedings.
11:51Not even the steward.
11:52When it happens, we're alone.
11:53You have my word.
11:57I need you now.
12:00Fine.
12:01Come here.
12:04What are you doing?
12:06Relax.
12:07You're shaking.
12:19Are you feeling better?
12:23You're warmer this time.
12:25You didn't have to say it.
12:27At first light, I'm taking you to town.
12:29We'll talk in the morning.
12:31Right now.
12:31I need some sleep.
12:33Good night, Alara.
12:37That was mortifying.
12:54Isn't that Alara Morgan?
12:57Why is she dressed like that?
12:59Is that a blackwood carriage?
13:00One gold coin.
13:02We could live on this for two years.
13:04Barnaby paid well.
13:05I wonder if that wretch is still alive.
13:07They say every one of his 20 wives died mysteriously.
13:10Who cares?
13:11She's gone.
13:12We got paid.
13:13I would have thrown her out years ago if her father hadn't made me promise otherwise.
13:17That milk made a laughingstest of this family.
13:20At least Barnaby thinks it's a use.
13:24Alara, what are you doing here?
13:25Did Mr. Piggott let you go?
13:27Did Mr. Piggott let you go?
13:31Mother, why is she dressed like that?
13:33That gown must have cost a fortune.
13:35Alara!
13:36Thank heavens you're home.
13:38I was beside myself.
13:40Come in.
13:40We were worried sick.
13:42But none of that matters now.
13:44You're home.
13:45And a rich merchant's wife now, no less.
13:48Family looks after family, Alara.
13:50And who is this?
13:52Alara is under the protection of House Blackwood.
13:55Blackwood?
13:56The family in the Golden Castle?
13:58I didn't come back to catch up.
14:00Father left you this house on one condition, that you care for me.
14:04Instead, you sold me to a monster.
14:06So now I'm taking back what's mine.
14:08Who do you think you are?
14:10You had milk leaking through your dress, landed in an Earl's bed, and now you think you're better than us?
14:14You're nothing but a cow.
14:15That's enough, Martha.
14:16You'll upset your sister.
14:17The whole town saw those stains.
14:19You think a fine dress and a powerful man can erase that?
14:22You're still the same filthy disgrace.
14:24Shut up!
14:25You hear me?
14:26You're the shame of this family!
14:28I said shut your mouth, you miserable little snake!
14:32You hit me?
14:34How dare you?
14:35Get out!
14:36This house is ours, and it always will be!
14:40Ah!
14:41My wrist!
14:42Let go!
14:43Alara, are you mad?
14:44Tell us to let go of her!
14:47Make sure she remembers this.
14:50Ah!
14:55Ah!
14:56Ah!
14:58A dragon!
15:00He's a dragon!
15:02Ah!
15:05No!
15:07Don't kill me!
15:08My lord, don't kill her!
15:15Why?
15:16She tried to crack your skull with a vase.
15:19After everything she's done, why should she live?
15:20I came for my house.
15:22Not their lives.
15:23I just want them thrown out the way they threw me out.
15:26After all that, you still want them alive?
15:28My father loved them.
15:30If he were here, he wouldn't want this.
15:32So I'm sparing them.
15:33For him.
15:34Then they live.
15:35Thank you, Alara!
15:37I knew you still had a good heart!
15:40Pack your things.
15:41Get out of my house.
15:43Then get out of this town and never come back.
15:50I could have sworn I heard a beast.
15:52Did Alara throw them out?
16:00Dorian, let's go home.
16:06Do you have to sit so close?
16:07Only if you don't want to fall.
16:09I know how to ride.
16:10My father taught me.
16:12I'm just out of practice.
16:13Is that what all that swaying was?
16:16That was the horse.
16:17He can't walk straight.
16:20Get off.
16:21I'll ride alone.
16:23By all means.
16:24No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
16:31no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
16:31no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
16:31no, no, no, no.
16:53Eyes closed. I told you not to look.
16:58Every little thing you do.
17:07Your heart is racing.
17:08It is not! Stop it!
17:13Miss Morgan, there you are.
17:15This is Thomas, our new gardener.
17:18I put him to work on the roses.
17:21Miss Morgan.
17:23I'm Thomas.
17:24They look much better.
17:26A few days ago, some of these branches were dying.
17:29Now look at them.
17:31Thank you, miss.
17:37What?
17:41You spent a long time talking to the new gardener.
17:43You mean Thomas?
17:45Is he handsome?
17:49Dorian, are you jealous?
17:54Of course not.
17:56Oh, please. I said three words to the man.
18:00Why would I care what he looks like?
18:02There you go.
18:03Drink.
18:08Ow! Not so hard.
18:09What are you doing? Get up!
18:14Don't talk to him again.
18:17This is all her fault.
18:18Fine dresses, a golden castle, all because she can make milk.
18:22We should have sent her father to the mines, or a brothel across the sea where she'd be passed from
18:26sailor to sailor.
18:28Anything would have been better than watching her dress like a lady and throw us into the street.
18:31She's damaged goods, and the Earl was fool enough to take her.
18:35What does it matter?
18:37She has the Blackwoods behind her now.
18:40And who knew their precious Earl was a dragon?
18:43Mother, I'm so hungry.
18:50Martha, did you hear something?
18:57Who are you? Stay back! We don't have anything!
19:04Is the Earl of Blackwood really a dragon?
19:08Who are you?
19:09We're dragon hunters. We kill dragons that threaten human lands. Now answer me.
19:14Did you say Blackwood is one?
19:16Yes! My sister is living with him. Golden Castle, end of the forest! Kill him!
19:21Everyone knows there's a dragon in that castle. Use Alara to draw him out.
19:28Blackwood is a dragon. Leave him to us.
19:32I wonder what's going on in town. I'd give anything to get out for a while.
19:40What are you looking at?
19:42I want to go into town. Buy some cloth. A few spices.
19:47No.
19:47Why not? I'm not your prisoner. If I stay cooped up in here another day, I'll lose my mind.
19:52We've seen signs of dragon hunters near the forest. It's not safe for you to leave.
19:56They hunt dragons, not women. I just need a few things. Besides, town will be crowded. No one will notice
20:02me.
20:02They'll use anyone to get to me. If they learn what you are to me, they'll come after you. I'm
20:06not risking it.
20:07Once it's safe, I'll take you myself. You can choose whatever you like.
20:10Fine! Have it your way!
20:19Then I'll sneak out.
20:28Dorian worries too much. It's not as if dragon hunters patrol every road. What are the odds I run into
20:33one?
20:38So you're Alara Morgan, the woman keeping Blackwood alive with her milk?
20:43No answer? Doesn't matter. I can smell the milk on you. And the dragon. You've been with him a while.
20:49You've mistaken me for someone else. I'm going to town. Now step aside.
20:52An ordinary woman walking through a dragon forest alone at night with his scent all over you?
20:56You're a terrible liar, Alara.
21:01She has the mark of the Aether Holy Meastern. That explains why her milk breaks the curse.
21:05Take her to camp. She may be useful.
21:09Alara?
21:10I brought you that new honey tea from town.
21:12Alara?
21:13Still asleep?
21:23Tell me.
21:25He feeds from you every day how much the curse is left.
21:29Light the fire.
21:33I should have listened to Dorian.
21:35Does he even know I'm gone?
21:37Am I really going to die here?
21:38Talk, or I burn you alive. Without you, Blackwood's curse never breaks.
21:45Then burn me. I'm not telling you a thing.
21:48Yes.
22:07Dorian, you're here.
22:09Silver bolts, fire everything you've got!
22:12No!
22:15No!
22:17No!
22:18No!
22:20Keep firing! Don't let him escape! Aim for the heart!
22:37Fall back! Move! This whole place is going up!
22:41No!
22:41No!
22:42No!
22:42No!
22:43No!
22:43No!
22:44No!
22:46No!
23:10Don't do this! Open your eyes! Look at me!
23:14You're safe. That's enough.
23:16I'm sorry. I never should have left.
23:20Stuart, how is he? Could the poison kill him?
23:23The silver bolts were coated in dragon blood sap.
23:26It paralyzes dragons, then eats away at their strength.
23:29His lordship may be human now, but the poison is still in his blood.
23:33Then what do we do?
23:35He needs you, Miss Morgan.
23:36Your milk can draw out most dragon poisons.
23:39If you'll help him.
23:41I understand. Leave us, please.
23:44Leave us.
23:49Allura, if anything happens to you again, I don't know what I'll do.
23:53I'm sorry.
23:58You're gonna spend all night in that chair?
24:00Your wounds might start hurting.
24:02Or you could get a fever. I want to be here in case you need me.
24:06I can't sleep with you watching me from across the room. Come here.
24:16Do you know what I thought about when I was falling?
24:19What?
24:20That I might die without ever kissing you.
24:46Alara, I don't think
24:47I've ever been this happy
24:49Alara, are you awake?
24:52Alara?
24:53Alara?
24:54Alara?
24:55Stewart!
24:56Stewart!
24:57Stewart!
24:59My apologies, my lord.
25:04My lord, Miss Morgan's body is failing.
25:07What are you saying?
25:08Her body can't sustain this.
25:10If she keeps making milk at this rate, she has three months at most.
25:14Then tell me how to save her.
25:16The curse is draining her.
25:17As long as it demands her milk, she'll keep getting weaker.
25:20Break it completely, and the milk will stop.
25:22Then she can recover.
25:24Completely?
25:25How?
25:26The curse has lasted for centuries.
25:28No Earl of Blackwood has ever broken it, and every woman destined for a Blackwood heir died
25:32the same way.
25:33If an answer exists, it will be in the oldest family records.
25:36That's our only chance.
25:39I'll find it.
25:41I won't lose you.
25:50Alara, you're awake.
25:52Did I sleep long?
25:54You must need my milk.
25:55I can...
25:56No.
25:57No.
25:58You're never feeding me again.
25:59But without my milk, you'll change back.
26:01The curse is still there.
26:03Then I change back.
26:04I'd rather be a beast for the rest of my life than watch you die just so I can wear
26:08a human face.
26:09The physician says you have three months if this continues.
26:11I almost lost you.
26:12I can't let you go back to being a dragon.
26:15Then we find a cure.
26:17Together.
26:21You need sleep.
26:22I'll search.
26:23Go lie down.
26:24I'm not going anywhere.
26:25Two people will find it faster than one.
26:31Dorian!
26:32Look here!
26:33End the Blackwood Curse.
26:35Seek the Sunstone.
26:36Dorian.
26:38This is it!
26:39We found it!
26:40Then we go after the Sunstone.
26:42Together.
26:47I heard something.
26:48They're heading for the dragon tomb.
26:51For the Sunstone, apparently.
26:54The Sunstone.
26:55So that's it.
26:57They mean to end the Blackwood Curse.
26:59That woman brought my house down on top of me!
27:01I spent all night clawing my way out!
27:03I nearly died!
27:04They will pay!
27:06A direct attack would cost me at least half my hunters.
27:10Then don't fight them head on.
27:11Trap them!
27:13It could work.
27:15I take the Sunstone when Blackwood is dead.
27:18What do you want?
27:19The castle.
27:20And the girl.
27:21I want her on her knees, begging.
27:23This time, they both die.
27:27My Lord, a letter from the North, addressed to Miss Morgan.
27:32He knows about the Sunstone.
27:34Says he knows a way into the dragon tomb and will guide us if we agree to work with him.
27:38I hold half a green dragon token from the tomb as proof.
27:41If you'll meet with me, come to the Northern Coaching Inn three days from now.
27:45The Yade is genuine.
27:47A dragon relic.
27:48And not a recent copy.
27:49Do you trust it?
27:51The entrance to the dragon tomb is well hidden.
27:53I've searched every old record.
27:55None of them mark its exact location.
27:56If this man truly knows the way, he could be useful.
27:59The invitation came from nowhere, but it's worth the travel.
28:02If you're ever in danger, crush this scale.
28:04I'll come for you.
28:06Alright.
28:07I won't forget.
28:09I won't forget.
28:37A dragon trap.
28:38Surprise, my Lord?
28:39I built it just for you.
28:41Barnaby?
28:41You're alive?
28:42Of course.
28:43I had to stay alive long enough to kill you both.
28:46You sick little coward!
28:47Don't move.
28:49This silver net is sapped from the dragon blood herb.
28:51Three times stronger than before.
28:53The more you struggle, the faster the poison spreads.
28:55Stay down, and I'll make your death quick.
28:57No!
28:59Blackwood.
29:00This is where you die.
29:02Fire!
29:03Pin him down!
29:04Keep shooting!
29:13Hold it down!
29:14Don't let it break free!
29:18Don't let it burn!
29:22No.
29:33Darian, go!
29:47Dorian, how bad is it?
29:48Can you move?
29:54We're going to be all right.
29:57Release your people.
30:03This place is rigged with traps.
30:05Selene's right behind us.
30:07What if she sets one off?
30:15This water, it's healing you.
30:18My ancestors must have left this dragon blood pool.
30:21It's filled with the purest life force of our kind.
30:25Found you.
30:26Run!
30:27Go on!
30:28Every step in this tomb is a trap.
30:30How far do you think you'll make it?
30:37Dorian!
30:39He's gone!
30:40The dragon is dead!
30:43The castle is mine.
30:44And so are you.
30:46You really thought he loved you?
30:47He needed your milk.
30:48That's all.
30:49He's dead.
30:50Wake up.
30:50No.
30:51If Dorian dies, I die with him.
30:55She jumped!
30:56Is she insane?
30:56That pool could be bottomless!
30:58She chose him over her own life.
30:59I misjudged her.
31:04I don't know if my milk can save him, but I have to try.
31:25Still alive?
31:27Fine.
31:28If one blast didn't kill you, the next one will.
31:32You're doomed.
31:43Don't kill me!
31:44I know where the sunstone is!
31:46I can tell you!
31:47You need me!
31:52Where is the sunstone?
31:53The dragon god's altar!
31:55It's at the end of the passage!
31:57I've never been inside!
31:58That's all I know!
31:59I swear!
32:00I swear!
32:01Please!
32:04I told you everything!
32:06You can't!
32:10Come on.
32:12The altar's low.
32:23Is that the sunstone?
32:34You've come for the sunstone.
32:40Yes.
32:42We need the sunstone to end the Blackwood Curse.
32:44Blackwood Blood.
32:46And the mark of an Ather Holy Midness.
32:49You were brought together for a reason.
32:52But not just anyone can take the sunstone.
32:55To claim it, you must pass one final trial.
32:59What kind of trial?
33:01Prove the bond between you is strong enough to break it.
33:05We're ready.
33:07Do you know how the Blackwood Curse began?
33:11We don't.
33:12Long ago, dragons and the Esur people lived as allies.
33:17The Holy Maidams gave their life-giving power to Dragonhood.
33:21In return, dragons protected their lands.
33:25Both sides swore never to betray or harm the other.
33:30Then dragonkind broke the covenant.
33:33The Arthur people were nearly wiped out.
33:36In punishment, a Holy Maiden cursed the Blackwood Bloodline.
33:40Every heir would be trapped in dragon form.
33:42Only one thing could break it.
33:44A Blackwood heir and an Arthur Holy Maidus standing before a dragon spirit
33:48and vowing never to abandon each other.
33:50So the sunstone alone can't break it?
33:52The sunstone is the vessel.
33:54The dragon blood pool is the power.
33:57But only a freely given vow between a Holy Maiden and a dragon heir can break the curse.
34:03Make that vow before me and mean it, and the sunstone will end the curse forever.
34:08I, Alara Morgan, last descendant of the Aether Holy Maidens,
34:12swear that whether Dorian Blackwood is man or dragon,
34:16whatever comes, I'll protect him, trust him, and never abandon him.
34:21I, Dorian Blackwood, last heir of Dragonhide,
34:25swear whether I ever take human form again or not.
34:28Alara Morgan is the only woman fate chose for me.
34:31I will protect her with all I have.
34:33Remain faithful and never abandon her.
34:36If I break this vow, may the dragon spirit strip me of my bloodline
34:40and cast me into eternal darkness.
34:42The vows are made.
34:43After a thousand years, the rip between your peoples is healed.
34:53It's so warm.
35:00It's gone.
35:01The curse is really gone.
35:05What about you?
35:06I feel it too.
35:08I'm stronger.
35:09There's a power inside me now, but it isn't draining me.
35:12It's giving me strength.
35:13This is incredible.
35:14Am I still myself?
35:16You were always you.
35:18Now the power is yours again.
35:20The Blackwood curse is gone.
35:21The Ather Holy Maiden's vow is sealed in the sunstone.
35:25The bond created by the curse is now a power that belongs to you both.
35:30My duty is done.
35:31Go.
35:33Live well.
35:36It's finally over.
35:38It is.
35:39Let's go home.
35:49My lord, Miss Morgan, thank heavens you're back.
35:53What happened?
35:55You look worried.
35:57Selene has rallied the remaining dragon hunters.
36:00He's spreading word through every town and village that an evil dragon lives in the golden castle,
36:05that he's beswitched a local woman,
36:09and that everyone will suffer unless he's killed.
36:13Are people actually believing her?
36:15Some are.
36:16She's also drawn in hunters and militia from nearby villages,
36:20all claiming they're coming to defend their homes.
36:23My scouts say she's gathering a sizable force.
36:25They'll reach the castle in three days.
36:28Don't worry.
36:29We'll be all right.
36:32I'm not the dragon I was before.
36:35They'll want to see a monster and give them a good look.
36:39My scouts say Selene's main force will cross the deep forest tonight
36:44and come up the western slope.
36:47Most are hunters and militia.
36:50Fewer than ten are trained dragon hunters.
36:52I won't hurt innocent people.
36:54Those townspeople are afraid, and Selene used that fear, but she won't stop.
36:59To her, every living dragon is an enemy.
37:02Selene, as long as I'm alive, she'll keep coming.
37:05Then Selene has to be stopped.
37:07The hunters only have power because people believe every dragon is a monster.
37:12So we show them the truth.
37:14Show them that a dragon can protect them,
37:15and that a hunter can turn fear into murder.
37:18Once they see that, Selene has nothing.
37:21You're right.
37:23They came to see an evil dragon.
37:25Let's show them what he really looks like.
37:27And I'll show them exactly how bewitched I am.
37:32I'll make the arrangements.
37:34No army.
37:35Just Alara and me.
37:40Are you afraid?
37:42No.
37:43Not with you.
37:49My lord, there are more torches than we expected.
37:52Twenty, perhaps thirty Selene is at the front.
37:56Look at them.
37:58They didn't come because they want to fight.
38:00They're frightened people who've been lied to,
38:03and they don't even know what they're afraid of.
38:04I know.
38:05That's why I won't hurt you.
38:07They're going to see the truth with their own eyes.
38:09They think you're a monster.
38:11They think you took me.
38:12So let's show them how wrong they are.
38:14My lord, Miss Morgan, both gates are locked from the inside.
38:17Stay in the tower.
38:18Whatever you hear, do not come out.
38:24Ready?
38:25Let's introduce them to their evil dragon,
38:28and his poor bewitched prisoner.
38:32People of this town!
38:34An evil dragon has taken the golden castle
38:36and hides behind the name of an earl.
38:38He abducted one of your own, Alara Morgan,
38:40and bent her mind to his will.
38:41For months, he's kept her captive
38:43and drained the life from her.
38:44Tonight, we free her.
38:46Tonight, we destroy the beast!
38:47Kill the dragon!
38:49Burn the castle!
38:51Isn't that the Morgan girl?
38:52She doesn't look like a princess.
38:53She's under the dragon's spell!
38:55My name is Alara Morgan.
38:56No one kidnapped me.
38:58I'm here because I choose to be.
38:59The evil dragon is Dorian Blackwood,
39:02Earl of Blackwood, and he saved my life.
39:04My stepmother and stepscarter sold me to Barney at Pippet,
39:06a sick old man who tortured twenty wives to death.
39:09Dorian got me out.
39:10He gave me a home.
39:11He has never hurt me,
39:12and he has never forced me to do anything.
39:14This is the mark of an Aether holy maiden.
39:17My blood carries the ancient covenant with dragon head,
39:20and the Earl has never harmed an innocent soul.
39:22She's telling the truth.
39:24I know that, Mark.
39:25My grandmother told me stories about the holy maidens.
39:28Don't listen!
39:29She's under his spell.
39:31He put those words in her mouth.
39:32Dragons are liars!
39:34They hide what they are!
39:35Enough!
39:36She's lost to him!
39:37Kill the dragon!
39:40I don't kill innocent people.
39:42You claim to fight for justice, Selene,
39:44but you hide behind frightened townspeople and send them to die.
39:47You want to hunt a dragon?
39:49Then face me yourself.
39:50Wait!
39:51He could have dodged that,
39:52and he barely had to move.
39:53If he wanted us dead, we'd be dead already.
39:55Please believe me.
39:58This is the power of the Aether holy maiden.
40:02I swear by it.
40:04If Dorian ever takes an innocent life,
40:06I will kill him myself.
40:11Selene, it's time you paid for what you've done.
40:14No, I haven't lost!
40:15Every dragon should be dead!
40:17The dragon hunters spread lies,
40:18incited a riot,
40:19and tried to murder innocent people.
40:21They will answer for every crime.
40:24That's them!
40:25They're the ones who sold Allura to that sick old man, Barnaby!
40:29I watched her humiliate Allura in the market,
40:32called her filthy,
40:33called her a disgrace to her own family.
40:35We have nothing!
40:36We needed the money!
40:38What else will we...
40:39Get out and never come back.
40:43If we see either of you again,
40:44you're going straight to the magistrate.
40:46After what you've done,
40:47you'll die in prison.
40:51It's over.
40:55Yes, it is.
41:04My lord,
41:05that stone is far too heavy.
41:06Please, let me.
41:07I've got it.
41:08I'm stronger.
41:10Thank you, Miss Morgan.
41:13Or should that be Lady Blackwood now?
41:15Not yet.
41:16Allura will do.
41:17Will your roof be finished today?
41:19I'll ask the steward to send two more men.
41:20Already done!
41:21His lordship replaced the bean himself yesterday.
41:25It's stronger than it ever was.
41:26My husband just stood there staring.
41:29He couldn't believe it.
41:30Miss Morgan,
41:31thank you for taking us in.
41:33I don't know how I'll ever repay you.
41:35You don't owe me anything.
41:37Just live your life.
41:38And someday when you can,
41:40help someone else who needs it.
41:42That's all the thanks I need.
41:44I passed the bakery
41:45and thought the women here might be hungry.
41:47Doran,
41:48I never knew being alive
41:50could feel this easy.
41:53This is how it's going to feel from now on.
41:59Welcome to the Golden Castle.
42:02We are gathered here
42:03to witness the marriage of Dorian Blackwood
42:06and Miss Ellara Morgan.
42:15It wasn't just my curse you broke.
42:17Whatever comes next,
42:19we'll write it together.
42:21Before all those gathered here,
42:22I now pronounce Dorian Blackwood
42:24and Ellara Morgan,
42:25husband and wife!
42:38I love you.
42:41I love you.
42:42I love you.
