00:00:13.159 --> 00:00:15.909 align:center
(dramatic music)

00:00:17.196 --> 00:00:19.946 align:center
(fire crackling)

00:00:21.810 --> 00:00:23.873 align:center
They were going to kill Arthur.

00:00:28.350 --> 00:00:29.313 align:center
Can you imagine?

00:00:31.440 --> 00:00:32.640 align:center
They would've killed him too,

00:00:32.640 --> 00:00:34.053 align:center
but I put a stop to it.

00:00:35.730 --> 00:00:39.183 align:center
The arrogance, the stupidity.

00:00:41.250 --> 00:00:43.863 align:center
Not that Uther ever was one for a scholar's coat.

00:00:45.810 --> 00:00:50.016 align:center
I heard about their sordid plan in the way that I have,

00:00:50.016 --> 00:00:51.600 align:center
(voices whispering)

00:00:51.600 --> 00:00:56.600 align:center
whispers in the wind, faces in the embers of the fire,

00:00:58.680 --> 00:01:00.813 align:center
and I made it my affair to save him.

00:01:02.160 --> 00:01:04.550 align:center
The high king would do his worst,

00:01:04.550 --> 00:01:07.200 align:center
(thunder crashing)

00:01:07.200 --> 00:01:08.943 align:center
but I would have my way.

00:01:10.520 --> 00:01:12.700 align:center
My way,

00:01:13.679 --> 00:01:14.512 align:center
was it?

00:01:15.360 --> 00:01:16.893 align:center
Was it ever my way?

00:01:18.300 --> 00:01:20.670 align:center
But I'm getting ahead of myself.

00:01:20.670 --> 00:01:21.843 align:center
I always am.

00:01:23.670 --> 00:01:25.563 align:center
This is to be Arthur's story,

00:01:28.050 --> 00:01:30.333 align:center
but there's more to Arthur than his birth.

00:01:31.380 --> 00:01:35.223 align:center
To understand him, you have to understand the land.

00:01:36.420 --> 00:01:40.773 align:center
This land, this Island of the Mighty.

00:01:42.990 --> 00:01:44.683 align:center
And you have to understand me,

00:01:46.230 --> 00:01:48.276 align:center
for I am the man who made him.

00:01:48.276 --> 00:01:53.276 align:center
(shouting)
(dramatic music)

00:01:55.675 --> 00:01:58.258 align:center
(wind howling)

00:01:59.171 --> 00:02:01.754 align:center
(gentle music)

00:02:11.075 --> 00:02:14.492 align:center
(gentle music continues)

00:02:16.561 --> 00:02:19.394 align:center
(water murmuring)

00:02:28.318 --> 00:02:31.735 align:center
(gentle music continues)

00:02:41.694 --> 00:02:45.111 align:center
(gentle music continues)

00:02:54.131 --> 00:02:57.548 align:center
(gentle music continues)

00:03:06.671 --> 00:03:10.088 align:center
(gentle music continues)

00:03:19.595 --> 00:03:22.063 align:center
(gentle music continues)

00:03:22.063 --> 00:03:26.700 align:center
Every year of my kingship, it has been my custom

00:03:26.700 --> 00:03:29.490 align:center
to give the first take of my salmon weir

00:03:29.490 --> 00:03:32.940 align:center
to one of your number as a sign of my respect.

00:03:32.940 --> 00:03:34.293 align:center
Respect for what?

00:03:36.330 --> 00:03:40.106 align:center
Everyone knows that your boy is cursed.

00:03:40.106 --> 00:03:42.960 align:center
(dramatic music)

00:03:42.960 --> 00:03:47.960 align:center
So you say, but the weir is mine,

00:03:47.970 --> 00:03:49.863 align:center
and the salmon mine to give.

00:03:52.532 --> 00:03:54.363 align:center
Elphin is my only son.

00:03:55.740 --> 00:03:59.130 align:center
A man must do for his true sons what he can

00:03:59.130 --> 00:04:00.963 align:center
to advance their fortunes.

00:04:02.615 --> 00:04:05.198 align:center
(gentle music)

00:04:10.710 --> 00:04:15.213 align:center
Bring a bounty, boy, and show them the curse is broken.

00:04:17.736 --> 00:04:20.403 align:center
(water rushing)

00:04:22.050 --> 00:04:24.209 align:center
And what if the nets are empty?

00:04:24.209 --> 00:04:26.876 align:center
(pensive music)

00:04:36.060 --> 00:04:38.560 align:center
You might have warned me about the snow upriver.

00:04:39.672 --> 00:04:42.072 align:center
You might have warned me of your foolish plan.

00:04:46.657 --> 00:04:49.824 align:center
(uneasy tense music)

00:04:59.393 --> 00:05:03.310 align:center
(uneasy tense music continues)

00:05:08.214 --> 00:05:10.881 align:center
(water rushing)

00:05:15.797 --> 00:05:18.630 align:center
(Elphin grunting)

00:05:22.062 --> 00:05:24.812 align:center
(water gurgling)

00:05:27.237 --> 00:05:31.154 align:center
(uneasy tense music continues)

00:05:33.926 --> 00:05:36.676 align:center
(water gurgling)

00:05:41.309 --> 00:05:44.340 align:center
(uneasy music)

00:05:44.340 --> 00:05:47.067 align:center
(people murmuring)

00:05:47.067 --> 00:05:49.323 align:center
All his ill luck aforetime was nothing.

00:05:50.280 --> 00:05:53.643 align:center
You've let him destroy the virtue of our weir.

00:05:53.643 --> 00:05:56.393 align:center
(water gurgling)

00:05:57.892 --> 00:05:59.392 align:center
(water splashing)

00:05:59.392 --> 00:06:02.892 align:center
(uneasy music continues)

00:06:05.419 --> 00:06:08.220 align:center
(Elphin grunting)

00:06:08.220 --> 00:06:09.637 align:center
Elphin, enough!

00:06:12.897 --> 00:06:15.730 align:center
(Elphin grunting)

00:06:19.403 --> 00:06:22.903 align:center
(uneasy music continues)

00:06:27.362 --> 00:06:30.270 align:center
(Elphin grunting)

00:06:30.270 --> 00:06:31.953 align:center
He, he has something.

00:06:34.473 --> 00:06:37.223 align:center
(Elphin panting)

00:06:39.120 --> 00:06:42.963 align:center
It's nothing, a drowned carcass.

00:06:44.803 --> 00:06:48.303 align:center
(uneasy music continues)

00:06:51.614 --> 00:06:54.364 align:center
(Elphin panting)

00:06:58.151 --> 00:07:00.984 align:center
(Elphin grunting)

00:07:07.457 --> 00:07:10.957 align:center
(uneasy music continues)

00:07:12.690 --> 00:07:15.440 align:center
(fire crackling)

00:07:22.907 --> 00:07:25.657 align:center
(Elphin panting)

00:07:30.565 --> 00:07:33.482 align:center
(Gwyddno grunting)

00:07:38.010 --> 00:07:40.113 align:center
Why so eager to share this bad luck?

00:07:43.759 --> 00:07:47.092 align:center
(uneasy ominous music)

00:07:56.376 --> 00:08:00.459 align:center
(uneasy ominous music continues)

00:08:09.382 --> 00:08:13.465 align:center
(uneasy ominous music continues)

00:08:15.629 --> 00:08:18.379 align:center
(knife clinking)

00:08:20.624 --> 00:08:24.707 align:center
(uneasy ominous music continues)

00:08:31.823 --> 00:08:34.906 align:center
(tense uneasy music)

00:08:36.840 --> 00:08:38.820 align:center
The scrawny thing's dead.

00:08:38.820 --> 00:08:41.910 align:center
Who'd be for throwing a babe like that in the river?

00:08:41.910 --> 00:08:43.410 align:center
The child is bewitched.

00:08:43.410 --> 00:08:45.110 align:center
Throw him back in and be done with it.

00:08:45.110 --> 00:08:45.943 align:center
(blade ringing)

00:08:45.943 --> 00:08:47.043 align:center
Don't touch him.

00:08:49.860 --> 00:08:52.053 align:center
The babe could be cursed, son.

00:08:54.330 --> 00:08:55.380 align:center
I'm already cursed.

00:08:58.419 --> 00:09:01.086 align:center
(uneasy music)

00:09:10.444 --> 00:09:13.694 align:center
(gentle pensive music)

00:09:23.350 --> 00:09:27.433 align:center
(gentle pensive music continues)

00:09:29.887 --> 00:09:33.329 align:center
(baby coughing)

00:09:33.329 --> 00:09:35.829 align:center
(baby crying)

00:09:39.062 --> 00:09:40.479 align:center
By the goddess.

00:09:41.699 --> 00:09:44.199 align:center
(baby crying)

00:09:47.580 --> 00:09:48.413 align:center
Behold.

00:09:50.276 --> 00:09:52.503 align:center
Taliesin of the radiant brow.

00:09:58.821 --> 00:10:01.321 align:center
(baby crying)

00:10:07.080 --> 00:10:09.600 align:center
Never in Gwyddno's weir

00:10:09.600 --> 00:10:12.063 align:center
was there such good fortune as today.

00:10:16.860 --> 00:10:19.239 align:center
Small you are, Taliesin,

00:10:19.239 --> 00:10:23.720 align:center
and weak, yet there is virtue in your tongue.

00:10:26.263 --> 00:10:29.010 align:center
A bard, the boy will be.

00:10:29.010 --> 00:10:30.810 align:center
A maker with words like no other

00:10:30.810 --> 00:10:32.410 align:center
from the beginning of the world,

00:10:34.620 --> 00:10:39.123 align:center
and in his voice will be born a kingdom of summer.

00:10:43.101 --> 00:10:46.434 align:center
(gentle dramatic music)

00:10:48.467 --> 00:10:51.050 align:center
(baby whining)

00:10:52.950 --> 00:10:57.950 align:center
Henceforth, let no one say Elphin Ap Gwyddno is unlucky.

00:10:59.606 --> 00:11:02.356 align:center
(dramatic music)

00:11:04.355 --> 00:11:06.938 align:center

00:18:37.027 --> 00:18:39.090 align:center
What have you seen?

00:18:39.090 --> 00:18:39.940 align:center
They're coming.

00:18:48.902 --> 00:18:50.310 align:center
Picti?

00:18:50.310 --> 00:18:52.440 align:center
From today, we will no longer speak

00:18:52.440 --> 00:18:56.223 align:center
of Irish, Pict, or Saecsen, but of Barbarian.

00:18:58.020 --> 00:18:58.853 align:center
Unified?

00:18:59.790 --> 00:19:00.623 align:center
Mmm.

00:19:04.860 --> 00:19:06.610 align:center
I had hoped for a few more years.

00:19:09.750 --> 00:19:13.353 align:center
One season more or less, what difference?

00:19:14.490 --> 00:19:16.143 align:center
Take the day as it comes, o'King.

00:19:17.760 --> 00:19:19.293 align:center
Do you see victory for us?

00:19:20.220 --> 00:19:21.470 align:center
Better to ask your son.

00:19:22.890 --> 00:19:25.620 align:center
He sees these things much clearer than I.

00:19:25.620 --> 00:19:28.263 align:center
I have not seen Taliesin in three days.

00:19:31.602 --> 00:19:33.877 align:center
(somber music)

00:19:33.877 --> 00:19:36.870 align:center
Where is he when I need him?

00:19:36.870 --> 00:19:38.643 align:center
He'll be where he's needed most.

00:19:39.861 --> 00:19:42.611 align:center
(dramatic music)

00:19:46.620 --> 00:19:49.623 align:center
Earth Mother, behold your son.

00:19:50.730 --> 00:19:54.243 align:center
Sky Mother, recognize your devoted servant.

00:19:55.920 --> 00:20:00.920 align:center
Father of Wisdom, speak to me that I may hear your voice.

00:20:03.600 --> 00:20:05.853 align:center
Great Goddess, Queen of Life,

00:20:07.080 --> 00:20:09.960 align:center
reveal to me the vision of your sight.

00:20:11.432 --> 00:20:14.073 align:center
Speak-
A beautiful prayer.

00:20:16.470 --> 00:20:19.740 align:center
The gods of this place must be pleased.

00:20:19.740 --> 00:20:22.500 align:center
It is unwise to sneak up on a man while he prays.

00:20:22.500 --> 00:20:26.013 align:center
It is unwise to pray while a man sneaks up on you.

00:20:28.920 --> 00:20:31.240 align:center
You are old to have climbed this hill alone.

00:20:31.240 --> 00:20:33.993 align:center
You are young to have climbed it at all.

00:20:35.160 --> 00:20:37.002 align:center
You think me young to seek the gods?

00:20:37.002 --> 00:20:42.002 align:center
(chuckling) Few enough seek the gods, young or old.

00:20:45.060 --> 00:20:46.380 align:center
The chair on which you sit

00:20:46.380 --> 00:20:48.030 align:center
belongs to the head of our order,

00:20:48.930 --> 00:20:51.450 align:center
the Chief Druid of the Island of the Mighty.

00:20:51.450 --> 00:20:54.873 align:center
And are you a druid then, Taliesin Ap Elphin?

00:20:57.900 --> 00:20:58.893 align:center
You know me.

00:20:58.893 --> 00:21:03.243 align:center
(chuckling) All men know of the great Taliesin.

00:21:04.290 --> 00:21:07.953 align:center
They say you are the most powerful of your people.

00:21:10.800 --> 00:21:11.853 align:center
I am as you see me.

00:21:13.260 --> 00:21:15.540 align:center
Who are you?

00:21:15.540 --> 00:21:17.163 align:center
Curious, isn't it?

00:21:18.540 --> 00:21:21.681 align:center
Why did your order allow one

00:21:21.681 --> 00:21:25.539 align:center
of their sacred stones to fall?

00:21:28.560 --> 00:21:30.660 align:center
Must have fallen long ago.

00:21:30.660 --> 00:21:35.553 align:center
I wonder, will you be the man to raise it?

00:21:36.951 --> 00:21:39.618 align:center
(pensive music)

00:21:41.731 --> 00:21:45.436 align:center
(Taliesin grunting)

00:21:45.436 --> 00:21:48.398 align:center
(stone crumbling)

00:21:48.398 --> 00:21:51.398 align:center
(Taliesin grunting)

00:21:54.186 --> 00:21:57.683 align:center
(Taliesin panting)

00:21:57.683 --> 00:22:00.350 align:center
(hand thudding)

00:22:04.210 --> 00:22:05.782 align:center
(Taliesin grunting)

00:22:05.782 --> 00:22:08.865 align:center
(Taliesin screaming)

00:22:11.330 --> 00:22:14.330 align:center
(Taliesin grunting)

00:22:18.026 --> 00:22:19.704 align:center
(Taliesin panting)

00:22:19.704 --> 00:22:21.371 align:center
I see why it fell.

00:22:24.184 --> 00:22:27.150 align:center
(dramatic music)

00:22:27.150 --> 00:22:28.300 align:center
Forgive me, stranger.

00:22:29.610 --> 00:22:31.450 align:center
Do the dead forgive?

00:22:35.008 --> 00:22:36.690 align:center
It is very old.

00:22:36.690 --> 00:22:38.607 align:center
What of the markings?

00:22:40.430 --> 00:22:43.640 align:center
Cernunnos, The Horned Lord!

00:22:43.640 --> 00:22:45.767 align:center
One of your gods?

00:22:45.767 --> 00:22:49.376 align:center
No, much older.

00:22:49.376 --> 00:22:52.789 align:center
(dramatic ominous music)

00:22:52.789 --> 00:22:54.901 align:center
(Taliesin gasping)

00:22:54.901 --> 00:22:55.901 align:center
Ancient one.

00:23:01.058 --> 00:23:05.758 align:center
No, no. (panting)

00:23:08.899 --> 00:23:09.732 align:center
No.

00:23:11.139 --> 00:23:14.056 align:center
(Taliesin panting)

00:23:16.074 --> 00:23:18.959 align:center
(man screaming)

00:23:18.959 --> 00:23:21.012 align:center
(flesh squelching)

00:23:21.012 --> 00:23:23.297 align:center
(ominous music)

00:23:23.297 --> 00:23:26.484 align:center
(Taliesin panting)

00:23:26.484 --> 00:23:29.401 align:center
(flesh squelching)

00:23:30.426 --> 00:23:33.343 align:center
(Taliesin panting)

00:23:34.995 --> 00:23:39.995 align:center
(Cernunnos speaking ancient Celtic)

00:23:40.245 --> 00:23:41.472 align:center
(water splashing)
(Taliesin gasping)

00:23:41.472 --> 00:23:43.123 align:center
Put it back!

00:23:43.123 --> 00:23:44.383 align:center
Put the stone back!

00:23:44.383 --> 00:23:48.090 align:center
No doubt I think this Cernunnos

00:23:48.090 --> 00:23:51.363 align:center
would prefer you lift his stone upright.

00:23:53.370 --> 00:23:54.660 align:center
He would have me revive the old ways.

00:23:54.660 --> 00:23:58.503 align:center
Ah, and what do you think?

00:24:00.131 --> 00:24:02.790 align:center
Look upon me then, Shining Brow.

00:24:09.255 --> 00:24:10.893 align:center
(Taliesin panting)

00:24:10.893 --> 00:24:14.610 align:center
Have you nothing to say to me, Great Bard?

00:24:14.610 --> 00:24:18.492 align:center
No song to sing or wisdom to declare?

00:24:18.492 --> 00:24:19.350 align:center
(Taliesin screaming)

00:24:19.350 --> 00:24:21.390 align:center
On the day of your liberation,

00:24:21.390 --> 00:24:23.250 align:center
your tongue will be loosed

00:24:23.250 --> 00:24:26.252 align:center
and the words I give you will come.

00:24:26.252 --> 00:24:28.324 align:center
You will be my bard,

00:24:28.324 --> 00:24:32.190 align:center
proclaiming my reign in the world of men.

00:24:32.190 --> 00:24:34.409 align:center
Men will hear your voice

00:24:34.409 --> 00:24:37.409 align:center
and will know who it is that speaks.

00:24:38.394 --> 00:24:43.394 align:center
Taliesin.
Father. (panting)

00:24:47.043 --> 00:24:51.093 align:center
Who am I, father, that the gods should war for my soul?

00:24:52.110 --> 00:24:53.493 align:center
You are my son, boy,

00:24:54.570 --> 00:24:57.930 align:center
and the greatest bard in the history of your people.

00:24:57.930 --> 00:24:58.763 align:center
Nothing more?

00:24:59.670 --> 00:25:00.903 align:center
Is that not enough?

00:25:04.230 --> 00:25:05.063 align:center
Come now.

00:25:06.270 --> 00:25:08.283 align:center
Our enemies gather against us.

00:25:09.120 --> 00:25:09.997 align:center
I need you.

00:25:14.792 --> 00:25:18.659 align:center
(knife slashing)
(stone thudding)

00:25:18.659 --> 00:25:21.242 align:center
(somber music)

00:25:28.375 --> 00:25:33.375 align:center
(warriors shouting)
(dramatic music)

00:25:35.241 --> 00:25:37.135 align:center
(swords clanking)

00:25:37.135 --> 00:25:40.135 align:center
(warriors grunting)

00:25:41.582 --> 00:25:44.756 align:center
(warrior screaming)

00:25:44.756 --> 00:25:48.006 align:center
(gentle pensive music)

00:25:50.592 --> 00:25:55.592 align:center
(ominous music)
(hooves clopping)

00:26:02.580 --> 00:26:03.843 align:center
Hail Maximus.

00:26:04.813 --> 00:26:06.060 align:center
I don't remember a Roman legion

00:26:06.060 --> 00:26:08.793 align:center
requiring the aid of a Celtic ala to avoid defeat.

00:26:10.410 --> 00:26:11.973 align:center
You have a short memory.

00:26:19.991 --> 00:26:22.408 align:center
I see you've met the enemy.

00:26:23.820 --> 00:26:25.350 align:center
Thank you for coming, Elphin,

00:26:25.350 --> 00:26:27.483 align:center
but I can't allow you to stay.

00:26:30.000 --> 00:26:31.950 align:center
The barbarian have overrun Luguvallium.

00:26:33.452 --> 00:26:34.527 align:center
By the goddess.

00:26:34.527 --> 00:26:35.763 align:center
The wall is fallen.

00:26:37.320 --> 00:26:38.970 align:center
Go home, friend.

00:26:38.970 --> 00:26:39.873 align:center
Defend your own.

00:26:43.770 --> 00:26:46.260 align:center
Both our people will stand a far better chance

00:26:46.260 --> 00:26:48.783 align:center
if we stand together.

00:26:49.800 --> 00:26:53.853 align:center
Besides we have my son to uphold us.

00:26:57.889 --> 00:26:59.490 align:center
Hail, Taliesin!

00:26:59.490 --> 00:27:01.350 align:center
I confess I should not like to miss the chance

00:27:01.350 --> 00:27:03.900 align:center
to fight under your blessing once more.

00:27:03.900 --> 00:27:05.093 align:center
Then you shall have it.

00:27:07.715 --> 00:27:09.015 align:center
Will you join me, Teacher?

00:27:12.963 --> 00:27:16.130 align:center
(soft dramatic music)

00:27:25.514 --> 00:27:29.514 align:center
(soft dramatic music continues)

00:27:33.780 --> 00:27:37.143 align:center
The Horned God, what did he offer you?

00:27:42.480 --> 00:27:46.713 align:center
Great power for a great price.

00:27:50.880 --> 00:27:53.730 align:center
Let us hope your refusal is not the doom of our people.

00:27:57.846 --> 00:28:01.050 align:center
(soft dramatic music continues)

00:28:01.050 --> 00:28:02.900 align:center
My acceptance surely would've been.

00:28:05.536 --> 00:28:08.869 align:center
(uneasy pensive music)

00:28:10.565 --> 00:28:14.982 align:center
(Taliesin speaking ancient Celtic)

00:28:16.900 --> 00:28:20.205 align:center
There is no other like him in all the empire.

00:28:20.205 --> 00:28:24.205 align:center
There is none other like him in all the world.

00:28:25.098 --> 00:28:27.931 align:center
(thunder booming)

00:28:28.851 --> 00:28:31.801 align:center
(Taliesin whispering ancient Celtic)

00:28:31.801 --> 00:28:36.801 align:center
(people shouting)
(swords clanking)

00:28:41.069 --> 00:28:45.152 align:center
(uneasy pensive music continues)

00:28:53.809 --> 00:28:55.720 align:center
(uneasy pensive music continues)

00:28:55.720 --> 00:28:58.770 align:center
(dramatic music)

00:28:58.770 --> 00:29:00.828 align:center
(thunder booming)

00:29:00.828 --> 00:29:02.846 align:center
(horse neighing)

00:29:02.846 --> 00:29:04.988 align:center
(warriors shouting)

00:29:04.988 --> 00:29:08.571 align:center
(dramatic music continues)

00:29:09.484 --> 00:29:12.317 align:center
(thunder booming)

00:29:14.467 --> 00:29:18.050 align:center
(dramatic music continues)

00:29:22.276 --> 00:29:27.276 align:center
(crickets chirping)
(birds singing)

00:29:28.951 --> 00:29:30.747 align:center
Who could it be?

00:29:30.747 --> 00:29:34.230 align:center
Saecsen? Irish?

00:29:34.230 --> 00:29:36.900 align:center
More likely a traveler stopping for rest and shade.

00:29:36.900 --> 00:29:39.360 align:center
I never thought we would find it occupied.

00:29:39.360 --> 00:29:41.820 align:center
One horse is hardly an occupation, Collen.

00:29:41.820 --> 00:29:44.310 align:center
Still, we should wait.

00:29:44.310 --> 00:29:45.410 align:center
Maybe they'll move on.

00:29:48.671 --> 00:29:50.070 align:center
What are you doing?

00:29:50.070 --> 00:29:52.433 align:center
We didn't come all this way to cower before the prize.

00:29:59.825 --> 00:30:02.575 align:center
(birds chirping)

00:30:09.803 --> 00:30:11.309 align:center
(uneasy music)

00:30:11.309 --> 00:30:14.615 align:center
(both gasping)

00:30:14.615 --> 00:30:16.470 align:center
(gentle music)

00:30:16.470 --> 00:30:17.520 align:center
Ave Maria.

00:30:21.990 --> 00:30:22.833 align:center
Goodness.

00:30:24.660 --> 00:30:26.640 align:center
Holy Mary, Mother of the Christ.

00:30:26.640 --> 00:30:27.753 align:center
Have mercy on us.

00:30:29.820 --> 00:30:31.830 align:center
What manner of men are you?

00:30:31.830 --> 00:30:34.053 align:center
Unworthy men, Lady.

00:30:35.820 --> 00:30:36.653 align:center
I see.

00:30:38.490 --> 00:30:39.780 align:center
Why have you come here?

00:30:39.780 --> 00:30:41.765 align:center
Seeking this holy place.

00:30:41.765 --> 00:30:46.653 align:center
And who is this Holy Mary of whom you speak?

00:30:50.100 --> 00:30:54.573 align:center
Why, the Mother of the Most High,

00:30:55.451 --> 00:30:58.293 align:center
Jesu the Christ, Savior of Mankind.

00:31:00.270 --> 00:31:01.720 align:center
You are not the Blessed Lady?

00:31:03.995 --> 00:31:06.145 align:center
There are those who would call me Savior,

00:31:07.110 --> 00:31:09.681 align:center
but I've never heard of this goddess Mary.

00:31:09.681 --> 00:31:11.280 align:center
Goddess?

00:31:11.280 --> 00:31:12.753 align:center
Forgive us, Lady.

00:31:14.310 --> 00:31:16.653 align:center
We worship no God but the True God,

00:31:17.490 --> 00:31:20.193 align:center
the God who was once worshiped in this very place.

00:31:22.080 --> 00:31:24.993 align:center
The True God worshiped here?

00:31:27.090 --> 00:31:28.950 align:center
That seems unlikely.

00:31:28.950 --> 00:31:30.813 align:center
Again, I beg your forgiveness.

00:31:31.650 --> 00:31:33.330 align:center
We have traveled all the way from Gaul

00:31:33.330 --> 00:31:35.910 align:center
to find and restore this place

00:31:35.910 --> 00:31:37.980 align:center
in order that the truth of our God

00:31:37.980 --> 00:31:40.710 align:center
might be proclaimed once more hereabouts.

00:31:40.710 --> 00:31:42.363 align:center
You speak often of truth.

00:31:43.650 --> 00:31:46.260 align:center
Is this God of yours so interested in truth?

00:31:46.260 --> 00:31:51.063 align:center
In truth, yes, but also in love.

00:31:53.400 --> 00:31:54.540 align:center
I see.

00:31:54.540 --> 00:31:55.623 align:center
A strange God then,

00:31:56.550 --> 00:31:58.260 align:center
and often disappointed, I should think.

00:31:58.260 --> 00:31:59.343 align:center
This is blasphemy.

00:32:00.180 --> 00:32:03.723 align:center
My companion studied under Brother Martin in Tours.

00:32:04.980 --> 00:32:08.670 align:center
He is zealous, but perhaps less open-minded

00:32:08.670 --> 00:32:10.593 align:center
than the situation calls for.

00:32:12.930 --> 00:32:13.833 align:center
He's honest.

00:32:15.900 --> 00:32:17.100 align:center
If you wish to restore this place,

00:32:17.100 --> 00:32:19.400 align:center
you will need the permission of King Avallach.

00:32:21.060 --> 00:32:21.893 align:center
Faery!

00:32:25.260 --> 00:32:28.060 align:center
You are of the Faer Folk, who dwell in the Glass Isle?

00:32:29.820 --> 00:32:32.940 align:center
The people here tell many strange tales about you.

00:32:32.940 --> 00:32:35.240 align:center
Have you heard we change our shapes at will?

00:32:36.690 --> 00:32:39.240 align:center
Have you heard we never sleep or rest

00:32:39.240 --> 00:32:41.400 align:center
and we have but to bid and the winds bring us news

00:32:41.400 --> 00:32:42.963 align:center
from any corner of our realm?

00:32:44.470 --> 00:32:47.670 align:center
And more.

00:32:47.670 --> 00:32:49.233 align:center
What do you believe, Priest?

00:32:52.020 --> 00:32:54.653 align:center
We will believe whatever the Holy God reveals to us.

00:32:58.980 --> 00:33:02.883 align:center
I trusted a god once, long ago.

00:33:05.760 --> 00:33:06.593 align:center
What happened?

00:33:10.732 --> 00:33:13.170 align:center
(dramatic music)

00:33:13.170 --> 00:33:14.003 align:center
I killed him.

00:33:17.492 --> 00:33:21.075 align:center
(dramatic music continues)

00:33:24.622 --> 00:33:28.289 align:center
(dramatic music continues)

00:33:35.400 --> 00:33:37.197 align:center
I've never seen anything like it.

00:33:37.197 --> 00:33:41.043 align:center
Not in Rome or Athens or Constantinople itself.

00:33:42.420 --> 00:33:44.343 align:center
Truly, these are the Faery!

00:33:46.020 --> 00:33:49.803 align:center
Hey, brother, they're mortals like as we.

00:33:51.870 --> 00:33:53.013 align:center
Mortals, perhaps.

00:33:54.913 --> 00:33:56.413 align:center
But never like us.

00:33:58.182 --> 00:34:01.849 align:center
(dramatic music continues)

00:34:08.884 --> 00:34:12.292 align:center
(dramatic music continues)

00:34:12.292 --> 00:34:15.042 align:center
(doors thudding)

00:34:18.504 --> 00:34:21.337 align:center
(hooves clopping)

00:34:25.364 --> 00:34:29.697 align:center
(Morgian speaking Atlantean)

00:34:35.347 --> 00:34:39.828 align:center
(Charis speaking Atlantean)

00:34:39.828 --> 00:34:41.645 align:center
(horse neighing)

00:34:41.645 --> 00:34:44.322 align:center
(Morgian speaking Atlantean)

00:34:44.322 --> 00:34:47.790 align:center
(Charis speaking Atlantean)

00:34:47.790 --> 00:34:49.860 align:center
What strange men are you?

00:34:49.860 --> 00:34:51.183 align:center
Priests, my lady.

00:34:53.760 --> 00:34:55.110 align:center
Are they with the others?

00:34:58.380 --> 00:35:01.050 align:center
Your father has given audience to a large group

00:35:01.050 --> 00:35:02.730 align:center
of strangely dressed Britons.

00:35:02.730 --> 00:35:04.470 align:center
Our father, Morgian.

00:35:04.470 --> 00:35:06.563 align:center
He asks that you join him on your return.

00:35:10.440 --> 00:35:12.123 align:center
My presence was not requested.

00:35:13.435 --> 00:35:15.717 align:center
(uneasy music)

00:35:15.717 --> 00:35:18.467 align:center
(horse grunting)

00:35:21.400 --> 00:35:24.453 align:center
(doors thudding)

00:35:24.453 --> 00:35:25.740 align:center
Do you think these painted men

00:35:25.740 --> 00:35:27.543 align:center
will strike this far south?

00:35:31.466 --> 00:35:32.937 align:center
In time.

00:35:32.937 --> 00:35:36.750 align:center
Although, in Dyfed, we heard the emperor

00:35:36.750 --> 00:35:39.510 align:center
was withdrawing two legions from Gaul

00:35:39.510 --> 00:35:41.403 align:center
and sending troops back to the wall.

00:35:42.780 --> 00:35:43.923 align:center
Here she is.

00:35:45.030 --> 00:35:49.140 align:center
King Elphin Ap Gwyddno, I present to you my daughter,

00:35:49.140 --> 00:35:53.523 align:center
the Princess Charis, Savior of our People.

00:35:54.894 --> 00:35:57.894 align:center
(soft uneasy music)

00:36:05.730 --> 00:36:06.933 align:center
Princess Charis.

00:36:08.160 --> 00:36:09.570 align:center
Your father was just telling us

00:36:09.570 --> 00:36:12.033 align:center
how you delivered your people from calamity.

00:36:14.140 --> 00:36:15.180 align:center
It is the way of fathers

00:36:15.180 --> 00:36:17.780 align:center
to exaggerate the accomplishments of their children.

00:36:19.770 --> 00:36:20.820 align:center
Never say it.

00:36:20.820 --> 00:36:24.930 align:center
Not an Atlantean draws breath who doesn't owe their life

00:36:24.930 --> 00:36:25.983 align:center
to my daughter.

00:36:28.290 --> 00:36:31.383 align:center
My people know something of loss as well.

00:36:34.470 --> 00:36:36.573 align:center
We too are strangers in these lands.

00:36:37.530 --> 00:36:41.640 align:center
Travelers are always welcome within these walls.

00:36:41.640 --> 00:36:43.743 align:center
Please stay with us if you can.

00:36:44.940 --> 00:36:49.353 align:center
Allow me to share the bounty of my table this evening.

00:36:54.240 --> 00:36:57.543 align:center
Your offer is most generous.

00:37:00.180 --> 00:37:05.180 align:center
Please accept this token as a sign of our gratitude.

00:37:06.793 --> 00:37:09.960 align:center
(gentle uneasy music)

00:37:18.300 --> 00:37:20.035 align:center
You honor me, Lord Elphin.

00:37:20.035 --> 00:37:24.035 align:center
(gentle uneasy music continues)

00:37:33.219 --> 00:37:36.136 align:center
(people murmuring)

00:37:39.352 --> 00:37:43.254 align:center
(Charis speaking Atlantean)

00:37:43.254 --> 00:37:47.671 align:center
(Avallach speaking Atlantean)

00:37:53.487 --> 00:37:54.320 align:center
Mmm.

00:38:01.080 --> 00:38:03.330 align:center
I gather his people have been driven

00:38:03.330 --> 00:38:05.730 align:center
from their homeland in the North?

00:38:05.730 --> 00:38:07.020 align:center
Driven?

00:38:07.020 --> 00:38:12.020 align:center
By war, war which will soon visit us in the South.

00:38:12.120 --> 00:38:15.783 align:center
If it is as bad as they declare.

00:38:16.650 --> 00:38:17.900 align:center
You don't believe them?

00:38:19.110 --> 00:38:23.793 align:center
Desperate men can never be trusted.

00:38:28.620 --> 00:38:29.823 align:center
Can they be trusted?

00:38:31.230 --> 00:38:33.030 align:center
Powerful men can never be trusted.

00:38:34.380 --> 00:38:35.373 align:center
What say you, son?

00:38:36.690 --> 00:38:37.523 align:center
Taliesin.

00:38:39.780 --> 00:38:40.613 align:center
Sorry, Father.

00:38:42.000 --> 00:38:43.400 align:center
I need you in the present,

00:38:44.524 --> 00:38:46.274 align:center
not lost in the past.

00:38:48.513 --> 00:38:50.490 align:center
King Avallach has shown kindness

00:38:50.490 --> 00:38:52.040 align:center
when kindness was not required.

00:38:57.000 --> 00:38:57.833 align:center
And yet?

00:39:00.000 --> 00:39:02.047 align:center
I sense danger in this place.

00:39:02.047 --> 00:39:05.430 align:center
(uneasy music)

00:39:05.430 --> 00:39:06.480 align:center
You must be wary.

00:39:09.771 --> 00:39:13.188 align:center
(uneasy music continues)

00:39:21.470 --> 00:39:23.279 align:center
(Morgian speaking Atlantean)

00:39:23.279 --> 00:39:27.409 align:center
(Annubi speaking Atlantean)

00:39:27.409 --> 00:39:28.822 align:center
(Morgian scoffing)

00:39:28.822 --> 00:39:33.155 align:center
(Morgian speaking Atlantean)

00:39:35.796 --> 00:39:40.046 align:center
(Annubi speaking Atlantean)

00:39:43.530 --> 00:39:46.947 align:center
(uneasy music continues)

00:39:54.915 --> 00:39:59.248 align:center
(Morgian speaking Atlantean)

00:40:04.251 --> 00:40:07.259 align:center
(uneasy music continues)

00:40:07.259 --> 00:40:11.509 align:center
(Annubi speaking Atlantean)

00:40:13.398 --> 00:40:16.815 align:center
(uneasy music continues)

00:40:19.708 --> 00:40:23.016 align:center
(doors thudding)

00:40:23.016 --> 00:40:26.183 align:center
(gentle string music)

00:40:27.907 --> 00:40:30.657 align:center
(food crunching)

00:40:34.221 --> 00:40:36.971 align:center
(food crunching)

00:40:41.570 --> 00:40:45.570 align:center
(gentle string music continues)

00:40:52.861 --> 00:40:57.311 align:center
Mmm. (sighing)

00:40:58.532 --> 00:41:00.360 align:center
Are you unwell, King Avallach?

00:41:00.360 --> 00:41:02.643 align:center
An old wound, and deep.

00:41:03.570 --> 00:41:04.473 align:center
Pay me no heed.

00:41:05.942 --> 00:41:09.942 align:center
(gentle string music continues)

00:41:11.543 --> 00:41:12.750 align:center
It is fortunate your people were able

00:41:12.750 --> 00:41:14.763 align:center
to escape the troubles in the North, King Elphin.

00:41:14.763 --> 00:41:15.596 align:center
Mm.

00:41:16.708 --> 00:41:19.293 align:center
The luck of Elphin Ap Gwyddno is legendary.

00:41:21.270 --> 00:41:22.680 align:center
Among our people,

00:41:22.680 --> 00:41:24.480 align:center
when breaking bread with new friends,

00:41:24.480 --> 00:41:26.253 align:center
it's customary to have a song.

00:41:27.690 --> 00:41:30.390 align:center
Alas, our best minstrels lie dead

00:41:30.390 --> 00:41:32.520 align:center
at the bottom of the great sea.

00:41:32.520 --> 00:41:33.353 align:center
Indeed.

00:41:34.260 --> 00:41:37.083 align:center
We have all seen our homes lost and kinsmen killed.

00:41:38.190 --> 00:41:42.870 align:center
And yet, our people escaped not only with our lives,

00:41:42.870 --> 00:41:44.519 align:center
but with our greatest treasure.

00:41:44.519 --> 00:41:45.691 align:center
(fist thudding)

00:41:45.691 --> 00:41:48.270 align:center
Hafgan speaks truth.

00:41:48.270 --> 00:41:50.583 align:center
The treasure is my son, Taliesin,

00:41:51.720 --> 00:41:54.423 align:center
a bard of extraordinary talent.

00:41:55.980 --> 00:41:57.243 align:center
Is this true?

00:41:58.719 --> 00:42:00.469 align:center
Taliesin, Taliesin.

00:42:02.970 --> 00:42:04.113 align:center
Is this true?

00:42:08.010 --> 00:42:08.940 align:center
It is the way of fathers

00:42:08.940 --> 00:42:11.513 align:center
to exaggerate the accomplishments of their children.

00:42:12.750 --> 00:42:14.943 align:center
False modesty is unbecoming, Taliesin.

00:42:16.200 --> 00:42:18.287 align:center
King Avallach has shared his bounty with us.

00:42:18.287 --> 00:42:20.043 align:center
Let us share ours with him.

00:42:30.108 --> 00:42:32.409 align:center
(chair thudding)

00:42:32.409 --> 00:42:35.159 align:center
(fists pounding)

00:42:44.197 --> 00:42:46.947 align:center
(fists pounding)

00:42:52.869 --> 00:42:55.619 align:center
(fists pounding)

00:42:57.169 --> 00:42:59.919 align:center
(fire crackling)

00:43:07.860 --> 00:43:11.163 align:center
Hear, then, if you will, the Lament of Pwyll,

00:43:12.120 --> 00:43:13.263 align:center
Prince of Annwifn.

00:43:17.833 --> 00:43:19.470 align:center
(gentle string music)

00:43:19.470 --> 00:43:21.150 align:center
In the days when the dew of creation

00:43:21.150 --> 00:43:23.550 align:center
was still fresh upon the earth,

00:43:23.550 --> 00:43:26.343 align:center
Pwyll was lord over the seven catrefs of Dyfed.

00:43:27.690 --> 00:43:31.650 align:center
Seven of Gwynedd, and seven of Lloegr as well.

00:43:31.650 --> 00:43:34.773 align:center
In Caer Narberth, his principal stronghold,

00:43:35.670 --> 00:43:38.640 align:center
he awakened one morning to look upon the hills,

00:43:38.640 --> 00:43:40.143 align:center
abounding with game.

00:43:41.880 --> 00:43:42.930 align:center
A thought came to him

00:43:43.807 --> 00:43:45.957 align:center
and he assembled his men to go out hunting.

00:43:49.080 --> 00:43:51.102 align:center
And this is the way of it.

00:43:51.102 --> 00:43:55.102 align:center

00:46:33.307 --> 00:46:36.057 align:center
(crowd cheering)

00:46:44.450 --> 00:46:47.117 align:center
(crowd gasping)

00:46:48.716 --> 00:46:51.466 align:center
(crowd cheering)

00:46:53.331 --> 00:46:55.998 align:center
(bull grunting)

00:46:57.205 --> 00:46:59.955 align:center
(dramatic music)

00:47:05.911 --> 00:47:08.828 align:center
(Charis screaming)

00:47:10.946 --> 00:47:13.613 align:center
(crowd gasping)

00:47:16.478 --> 00:47:19.311 align:center
(crowd murmuring)

00:47:27.899 --> 00:47:31.132 align:center
(crowd murmuring)

00:47:31.132 --> 00:47:34.413 align:center
(crowd gasping)

00:47:34.413 --> 00:47:36.996 align:center
(solemn music)

00:47:43.179 --> 00:47:46.596 align:center
(solemn music continues)

00:47:47.895 --> 00:47:50.562 align:center
(bull grunting)

00:47:54.325 --> 00:47:57.408 align:center
(tense solemn music)

00:48:06.147 --> 00:48:10.064 align:center
(tense solemn music continues)

00:48:16.813 --> 00:48:19.396 align:center
(gentle music)

00:48:24.159 --> 00:48:26.826 align:center
(bull grunting)

00:48:34.169 --> 00:48:35.936 align:center
(Charis yelling in Atlantean)

00:48:35.936 --> 00:48:40.936 align:center
(bull grunting)
(ominous music)

00:48:42.640 --> 00:48:44.663 align:center
(Charis speaking in Atlantean)

00:48:44.663 --> 00:48:47.913 align:center
(gentle pensive music)

00:48:56.957 --> 00:48:59.624 align:center
(bull grunting)

00:49:01.755 --> 00:49:06.755 align:center
(tense music)
(bull growling)

00:49:10.372 --> 00:49:12.789 align:center
(bull thuds)

00:49:20.155 --> 00:49:22.988 align:center
(crowd murmuring)

00:49:27.471 --> 00:49:30.304 align:center
(crowd murmuring)

00:49:33.166 --> 00:49:38.166 align:center
(ground rumbling)
(crowd screaming)

00:49:42.261 --> 00:49:47.261 align:center
(ground cracking)
(crowd screaming)

00:49:54.190 --> 00:49:55.484 align:center
(stone crumbling)

00:49:55.484 --> 00:49:58.067 align:center
(statue thuds)

00:49:59.949 --> 00:50:03.032 align:center
(dark pensive music)

00:50:06.292 --> 00:50:07.125 align:center
Charis!

00:50:13.158 --> 00:50:17.075 align:center
(dark pensive music continues)

00:50:20.310 --> 00:50:23.310 align:center
(dark dreamy music)

00:50:31.636 --> 00:50:34.553 align:center
(Morgian grunting)

00:50:41.046 --> 00:50:42.546 align:center
Princess Charis?

00:50:43.530 --> 00:50:46.713 align:center
The Savior of her People is not here, stranger.

00:50:52.264 --> 00:50:55.014 align:center
(horse neighing)

00:51:00.810 --> 00:51:02.010 align:center
The foal is in breech?

00:51:03.510 --> 00:51:05.260 align:center
I'm not strong enough to turn it.

00:51:15.125 --> 00:51:17.875 align:center
(horse neighing)

00:51:19.588 --> 00:51:24.421 align:center
(Taliesin whispering in ancient Celtic)

00:51:33.138 --> 00:51:36.305 align:center
(gentle somber music)

00:51:42.296 --> 00:51:44.213 align:center
The fourth emanation.

00:51:47.537 --> 00:51:50.370 align:center
I know the price of the power you display.

00:51:50.370 --> 00:51:52.220 align:center
I've never spilled blood for power.

00:51:54.205 --> 00:51:55.678 align:center
Perhaps that's why I failed.

00:51:55.678 --> 00:51:56.511 align:center
Failed?

00:52:04.223 --> 00:52:06.973 align:center
(horse neighing)

00:52:13.874 --> 00:52:18.707 align:center
(Taliesin whispering in ancient Celtic)

00:52:28.272 --> 00:52:30.007 align:center
(gentle dramatic music)

00:52:30.007 --> 00:52:32.757 align:center
(horse neighing)

00:52:37.215 --> 00:52:38.048 align:center
Shh.

00:52:44.290 --> 00:52:48.546 align:center
(horse grunting and neighing)

00:52:48.546 --> 00:52:49.379 align:center
Shh.

00:52:58.013 --> 00:53:02.580 align:center
(Taliesin speaking in ancient Celtic)

00:53:02.580 --> 00:53:04.163 align:center
The foal is turned.

00:53:06.662 --> 00:53:07.662 align:center
All be well.

00:53:11.160 --> 00:53:12.160 align:center
Thank you.

00:53:17.591 --> 00:53:20.674 align:center
(dark pensive music)

00:53:27.152 --> 00:53:28.800 align:center
Forgive me.

00:53:28.800 --> 00:53:30.183 align:center
I seek the Princess Charis.

00:53:33.030 --> 00:53:34.130 align:center
Did she come this way?

00:53:36.720 --> 00:53:38.906 align:center
She took her grey and rode out.

00:53:38.906 --> 00:53:41.489 align:center
(uneasy music)

00:53:42.990 --> 00:53:45.963 align:center
She often bathes below the Tor at night,

00:53:48.570 --> 00:53:50.463 align:center
when there are fewer prying eyes.

00:53:52.350 --> 00:53:53.560 align:center
Thank you,

00:53:55.040 --> 00:53:55.873 align:center
friend.

00:53:58.281 --> 00:54:00.864 align:center
(solemn music)

00:54:10.106 --> 00:54:13.523 align:center
(solemn music continues)

00:54:22.415 --> 00:54:25.415 align:center
(crickets chirping)

00:54:31.464 --> 00:54:33.964 align:center
(owl hooting)

00:54:37.012 --> 00:54:39.762 align:center
(Charis humming)

00:54:47.898 --> 00:54:51.235 align:center
(crickets chirping)

00:54:51.235 --> 00:54:53.985 align:center
(Charis gasping)

00:54:58.019 --> 00:55:00.040 align:center
(water splashing)

00:55:00.040 --> 00:55:02.790 align:center
(Charis gasping)

00:55:07.740 --> 00:55:11.340 align:center
I beg your pardon, princess. I didn't mean to startle you.

00:55:11.340 --> 00:55:13.260 align:center
Is it customary in the north to spy on a woman

00:55:13.260 --> 00:55:14.223 align:center
while she bathes?

00:55:16.800 --> 00:55:17.670 align:center
Never, lady.

00:55:17.670 --> 00:55:18.870 align:center
Then what do you here?

00:55:21.510 --> 00:55:22.610 align:center
I needed to see you.

00:55:27.232 --> 00:55:29.982 align:center
Have you not seen enough of me?

00:55:32.130 --> 00:55:34.110 align:center
It wasn't my intention to intrude into your thoughts.

00:55:34.110 --> 00:55:35.883 align:center
You intruded into my soul.

00:55:38.520 --> 00:55:40.313 align:center
I know what the bull-god offered you.

00:55:44.116 --> 00:55:46.616 align:center
Cernunnos offered me the same.

00:55:48.393 --> 00:55:49.226 align:center
And?

00:55:51.120 --> 00:55:52.770 align:center
I made the same choice you did.

00:55:54.046 --> 00:55:57.213 align:center
(gentle somber music)

00:55:59.010 --> 00:56:00.033 align:center
Then damn us both.

00:56:03.090 --> 00:56:03.923 align:center
Aye.

00:56:07.230 --> 00:56:09.660 align:center
I do not find myself in need of company.

00:56:09.660 --> 00:56:11.463 align:center
Less so the company of a savage.

00:56:12.960 --> 00:56:15.483 align:center
Well, you think of us as savages, aye?

00:56:16.920 --> 00:56:21.020 align:center
And we think of you as otherworldly.

00:56:21.020 --> 00:56:23.603 align:center
(gentle music)

00:56:24.630 --> 00:56:27.813 align:center
Perhaps, we're both just people.

00:56:31.396 --> 00:56:33.580 align:center
I am not just anything, singer.

00:56:37.006 --> 00:56:42.006 align:center
(gentle dramatic music)
(water sloshing)

00:56:48.696 --> 00:56:51.529 align:center
(Morgian sobbing)

00:56:53.820 --> 00:56:57.210 align:center
How dare you enter my chamber without leave!

00:56:57.210 --> 00:56:58.680 align:center
You have no right!

00:56:58.680 --> 00:57:00.692 align:center
It shows me more than it ever showed you!

00:57:00.692 --> 00:57:03.450 align:center
(slaps) Never from curiosity.

00:57:03.450 --> 00:57:05.403 align:center
How many times have I told you?

00:57:06.316 --> 00:57:09.331 align:center
You were ever weak.

00:57:09.331 --> 00:57:14.130 align:center
And you were ever a fool. Just like your sister.

00:57:14.130 --> 00:57:16.440 align:center
Oh yes, she had the sight, too.

00:57:16.440 --> 00:57:20.160 align:center
And what did she do with it? Savior of our People?

00:57:20.160 --> 00:57:23.160 align:center
A thousand thousand of our kinsmen swallowed by the sea,

00:57:23.160 --> 00:57:25.397 align:center
and this savage crag is our

00:57:25.397 --> 00:57:29.623 align:center
salvation?
(Morgian gasps)

00:57:29.623 --> 00:57:33.900 align:center
True power is killing what you love, little girl,

00:57:33.900 --> 00:57:35.493 align:center
not letting it kill you.

00:57:36.870 --> 00:57:41.633 align:center
I do not love the bard. It's only his power I desire.

00:57:45.540 --> 00:57:47.133 align:center
As I desired yours.

00:57:50.610 --> 00:57:55.610 align:center
And now you have none left to give.

00:57:56.050 --> 00:57:58.633 align:center
(somber music)

00:58:07.333 --> 00:58:10.750 align:center
(somber music continues)

00:58:15.443 --> 00:58:18.193 align:center
(birds chirping)

00:58:20.220 --> 00:58:21.153 align:center
Princess Charis.

00:58:24.600 --> 00:58:26.130 align:center
Prince Taliesin.

00:58:26.130 --> 00:58:28.560 align:center
Alas, only Taliesin.

00:58:28.560 --> 00:58:31.440 align:center
Hereditary titles are not known among the Cymry,

00:58:31.440 --> 00:58:32.373 align:center
savage as we are.

00:58:33.210 --> 00:58:34.590 align:center
Never say it!

00:58:34.590 --> 00:58:38.103 align:center
Your people are as noble as any I have encountered.

00:58:39.120 --> 00:58:41.820 align:center
King Avallach. Lady of the Lake.

00:58:49.410 --> 00:58:51.110 align:center
I've never met another like him.

00:58:52.710 --> 00:58:54.240 align:center
He's proud enough.

00:58:54.240 --> 00:58:59.130 align:center
When he sings, I forget the pain of our loss.

00:58:59.130 --> 00:59:02.130 align:center
Even my old wound grieves me less.

00:59:02.130 --> 00:59:03.880 align:center
His song brings no comfort to me.

00:59:05.250 --> 00:59:06.083 align:center
Truly?

00:59:08.160 --> 00:59:12.400 align:center
I plan to gift them the lands north of the Tor

00:59:13.980 --> 00:59:15.130 align:center
if they will have them.

00:59:16.410 --> 00:59:17.860 align:center
You would settle them here?

00:59:18.810 --> 00:59:22.773 align:center
Their need is dire, and it's not a tenth of my holdings.

00:59:24.180 --> 00:59:25.053 align:center
You object?

00:59:28.050 --> 00:59:30.383 align:center
Why should I care where the singer lays his head?

00:59:39.586 --> 00:59:44.586 align:center
(people murmuring)
(birds chirping)

00:59:52.020 --> 00:59:52.853 align:center
Charis!

00:59:58.290 --> 00:59:59.123 align:center
Wait!

01:00:04.050 --> 01:00:05.600 align:center
I thought to find you barefoot.

01:00:07.710 --> 01:00:10.173 align:center
Your boots, you left them at the lake.

01:00:11.610 --> 01:00:13.980 align:center
A true prince would have returned them.

01:00:13.980 --> 01:00:15.480 align:center
As I've said, I'm no prince.

01:00:16.740 --> 01:00:21.123 align:center
But I'll redeem myself, if you will allow me.

01:00:26.103 --> 01:00:28.353 align:center
They are yours, are they not?

01:00:30.885 --> 01:00:31.802 align:center
They are.

01:00:33.685 --> 01:00:36.268 align:center
(gentle music)

01:00:44.956 --> 01:00:48.373 align:center
(gentle music continues)

01:00:53.723 --> 01:00:55.893 align:center
Neither pain nor pleasure, evermore.

01:01:00.064 --> 01:01:03.933 align:center
I thought that was all life held for me after our loss.

01:01:03.933 --> 01:01:07.350 align:center
(gentle music continues)

01:01:16.435 --> 01:01:19.852 align:center
(gentle music continues)

01:01:26.426 --> 01:01:29.843 align:center
(gentle music continues)

01:01:37.210 --> 01:01:40.110 align:center
2,000 of us arrived on these shores after the cataclysm.

01:01:41.430 --> 01:01:42.723 align:center
Only 1,000 remain.

01:01:44.370 --> 01:01:45.370 align:center
And yet, you live.

01:01:46.260 --> 01:01:47.093 align:center
And while there is life in you,

01:01:47.093 --> 01:01:48.540 align:center
there is hope for your people.

01:01:50.010 --> 01:01:50.843 align:center
You are young-

01:01:51.900 --> 01:01:53.253 align:center
To your eyes, perhaps.

01:01:54.120 --> 01:01:56.670 align:center
My people carry our years more lightly than others.

01:01:58.140 --> 01:02:00.190 align:center
This place need not be a grave, Charis.

01:02:02.640 --> 01:02:04.470 align:center
I like to believe something great and tragic

01:02:04.470 --> 01:02:05.763 align:center
occurred in this place.

01:02:07.320 --> 01:02:08.403 align:center
Sometime long ago.

01:02:10.710 --> 01:02:13.160 align:center
Do not tell me otherwise, bard. Even if you know.

01:02:15.993 --> 01:02:19.447 align:center
All the world is made up of events both great and tragic.

01:02:20.820 --> 01:02:23.313 align:center
Some are observed and remembered, others-

01:02:27.090 --> 01:02:28.090 align:center
There was a woman.

01:02:31.050 --> 01:02:32.500 align:center
She came from across the sea.

01:02:35.010 --> 01:02:36.840 align:center
Her life was hard, for the land was harsh.

01:02:36.840 --> 01:02:39.773 align:center
And she could not help remembering all she had left behind.

01:02:40.890 --> 01:02:42.540 align:center
She longed to return to her home.

01:02:47.760 --> 01:02:48.810 align:center
What became of her?

01:02:50.340 --> 01:02:51.363 align:center
She grew lonely.

01:02:54.330 --> 01:02:55.163 align:center
And died.

01:02:56.070 --> 01:02:58.653 align:center
(somber music)

01:03:05.340 --> 01:03:07.187 align:center
Was there no man to love her?

01:03:11.370 --> 01:03:13.590 align:center
Once there was a man whose song captured her heart

01:03:13.590 --> 01:03:16.390 align:center
as easily as a fowler catching a bird in a silken snare.

01:03:18.960 --> 01:03:22.148 align:center
But they were from different worlds, and it could not be.

01:03:22.148 --> 01:03:25.565 align:center
(somber music continues)

01:03:33.767 --> 01:03:34.934 align:center
Why is this?

01:03:40.490 --> 01:03:43.573 align:center
(tense somber music)

01:03:47.130 --> 01:03:49.557 align:center
Neither pain nor pleasure, evermore.

01:03:52.105 --> 01:03:55.438 align:center
(dramatic somber music)

01:04:02.357 --> 01:04:04.723 align:center
Charis! Charis!

01:04:04.723 --> 01:04:05.973 align:center
Haw!

01:04:07.043 --> 01:04:10.547 align:center
(dramatic somber music continues)

01:04:10.547 --> 01:04:13.380 align:center
(Morgian sobbing)

01:04:17.636 --> 01:04:21.803 align:center
(dramatic somber music continues)

01:04:26.841 --> 01:04:29.674 align:center
(Morgian sobbing)

01:04:32.746 --> 01:04:35.829 align:center
(dark ominous music)

01:04:41.900 --> 01:04:45.233 align:center
(dramatic solemn music)

01:04:54.408 --> 01:04:56.991 align:center
(uneasy music)

01:05:01.928 --> 01:05:04.928 align:center
(dark uneasy music)

01:05:14.287 --> 01:05:18.120 align:center
(dark uneasy music continues)

01:05:27.385 --> 01:05:31.218 align:center
(dark uneasy music continues)

01:05:38.199 --> 01:05:40.866 align:center
(air swooshing)

01:05:43.678 --> 01:05:46.585 align:center
Look upon me then Shinning Brow.

01:05:46.585 --> 01:05:49.668 align:center
(Taliesin screaming)

01:05:57.011 --> 01:05:59.216 align:center
(horse neighing)

01:05:59.216 --> 01:06:00.131 align:center
(crow cawing)

01:06:00.131 --> 01:06:02.881 align:center
(horse grunting)

01:06:11.085 --> 01:06:13.835 align:center
(horse neighing)

01:06:19.603 --> 01:06:22.353 align:center
(knife slashing)

01:07:59.450 --> 01:08:01.920 align:center
All this is an illusion,

01:08:01.920 --> 01:08:04.132 align:center
an echo of a voice that has died.

01:08:04.132 --> 01:08:07.049 align:center
(people screaming)

01:08:08.520 --> 01:08:10.159 align:center
And soon that echo will cease.

01:08:10.159 --> 01:08:12.688 align:center
Death before slavery!

01:08:12.688 --> 01:08:14.850 align:center
(tense music)

01:08:14.850 --> 01:08:16.740 align:center
Men are weak, Taliesin,

01:08:16.740 --> 01:08:19.350 align:center
unwilling to pay the price for better world.

01:08:19.350 --> 01:08:22.320 align:center
There is a new power at work in the world. I've seen it.

01:08:22.320 --> 01:08:25.230 align:center
I've seen a land shining with goodness.

01:08:25.230 --> 01:08:26.760 align:center
It's the kingdom of summer.

01:08:26.760 --> 01:08:28.980 align:center
Where you came from no man knows.

01:08:28.980 --> 01:08:31.950 align:center
Where you are going no man can say.

01:08:31.950 --> 01:08:33.120 align:center
I'll not be separated from you.

01:08:33.120 --> 01:08:38.120 align:center
I will not give my daughter to a barbarian.

01:08:38.526 --> 01:08:41.443 align:center
(swords swooshing)

01:08:42.300 --> 01:08:43.885 align:center
Marry me, Charis.
