03:38these people are my family your highness if you don't return the kingdom will fall into civil war
03:43we'll be destroyed
03:46i'm not going back but we can build a trade alliance
03:55one scale one standard grain salt iron everything gets measured the same way
04:00cheat in my market and you're out
04:01buying things needs this many rules
04:03clear rules keep small tribes from getting cheated
04:06fair trade
04:06finally this world is starting to act civilized
04:09the crown council has issued an order
04:11any tribe territory or caravan that trades with the snow fortress will be treated as traders
04:17if you're afraid leave so no one here will force you to stay
04:20they couldn't beat us with soldiers took the now the kingdom long enough to get clever
04:26open the gate
04:27being trolled by the crown council if you shelter in the south will say you're openly fugitives
04:30please save my child
04:33open the gates all the way
04:36then the entire south will treat you like an enemy
04:38when have they ever treated me like anything else
04:41children and wounded first
04:43so this is how beast men have always protected their young
04:46they think a piece of paper can close my gate
04:48then i'll open it wider
04:52we can't just hand out food
04:54they'll eat today and starve tomorrow
04:57the crown council cut off their territory's grain roots
04:59they have nowhere to go this winter
05:01got goods trade
05:02got nothing
05:03if you can work work
05:04herbs timber ore it all counts
05:06they don't even have weapons
05:07what are they supposed to trade for
05:08not everything has to be a weapon
05:10iron hoves
05:11civils
05:12pots
05:12snails
05:12sometimes the tools that keep people alive are worth more than sales alone
05:16this city's here have a weapon
05:17place moves more goods in one day than three southern markets combined
05:20chief more news from the south
05:23the crown council blocked all three northern trade roads
05:27then we use different roads
05:28those routes are longer they cross other tribes land
05:30then we make sure those tribes profit too
05:36you said you didn't want the southern kingdom
05:37i don't but apparently it keeps coming to me
05:40silver moon princess please let my caravan stay
05:43wait i opened a market and somehow earned another title
05:48at this rate we're really going to become the biggest market in the north
05:53silver moon princess this is for you
05:57please don't call me princess
05:58everyone along the southern border already does
06:14who sent you
06:16from now on you're not wandering around the fortress alone
06:19no
06:21if i hide there's only one bounty they'll know this works
06:23they say as long as the moonborn hare is alive there's another choice
06:26so they're not afraid i'll take the throne
06:28they're afraid you don't need it
06:30chief three groups are coming across the snow
06:39looks like people are finally picking sides
06:46silver moon princess we speak for three border territories
06:51the crown council closed our grain routes seized our taxes and arrested lords who refused to obey
06:56we're done with them
06:57the old king is dead the queen regent never returned from the north
07:00and the court has declared her dead
07:02the south needs a true heir
07:04please take the crown
07:05if the moonborn hare steps forward the border fortress at the edge of the world
07:08how is the throne still chasing me
07:10i don't want it
07:11but you're the only one with the oldest claim mark
07:13and if someone with the right blood sits on the throne
07:16does that magically stop the south from stealing grain raising taxes and killing each other
07:21i'm not becoming your new queen
07:23then what are we supposed to do
07:25you keep governing your own territories
07:27join the alliance open the trade roads and if anyone attacks one of us the rest stand with them
07:32so no submission
07:34no
07:35no oath of loyalty either
07:36trust me i don't need more people kneeling at me
07:38you're not building another kingdom
07:41you're making something this world has never seen before
07:43is this the new world you were talking about
07:45we're just getting started
07:46chief another army from the south
07:48but no catapults
07:50looks like the real negotiator finally showed up
07:55moonborn heir last chance take the crown and swear to the crown council shelter the fugitives open illegal trade routes
08:01i can wipe it all clean
08:02i already told you i don't want your crown
08:05then we'll start with the traders
08:06guards drag them out
08:09are you deaf that's an order
08:10my mother nearly starved last month
08:12food from this fortress kept her alive
08:13my brother used an iron hulk from this market to save our winter crop
08:16i am lord regent by order of the crown you dare defy me
08:20so that's what really breaks an order not a sharper sword
08:22this is all because of you
08:24kill you
08:25and everything goes back to normal
08:27dad wait
08:33take one more step and you don't get past me
08:36don't kill him
08:40whether he's still your lord isn't my decision
08:42you decide
08:56looks like this change is bigger than any of us can stop now
09:08so what is this place now a new kingdom
09:10not a kingdom
09:11more territories are joining you every week
09:14joining isn't the same as kneeling
09:15everyone governs their own land
09:17we share trade roads
09:18if one gets attacked the others show up
09:21no throne
09:22no single ruler
09:24exactly
09:24and nobody has to spend their day bowing to whoever happens to wear a crown
09:29then what does the moon bloom crest stand for now
09:33it used to tell everyone whose blood i came from
09:36from now on it means one thing
09:39anyone who comes here gets to decide for themselves where they belong
09:43dad
09:44what new rule did you come up with today
09:46a lot
09:47you'll get a headache if i explain them all
09:48five years ago i almost froze to death out in the snow
