00:00.664 --> 00:03.767
(discordant suspenseful music)

00:03.767 --> 00:07.152
(projectiles crashing)
(dramatic music)

00:07.152 --> 00:10.388
(Charis speaking Atlantean)

00:10.388 --> 00:13.054
(projectiles crashing)

00:13.054 --> 00:15.905
The treasure is my son, Taliesin,

00:15.905 --> 00:19.620
and in his voice will be born a Kingdom of Summer.

00:19.620 --> 00:20.970
I do not love the bard.

00:20.970 --> 00:22.469
It's only his power I desire.

00:22.469 --> 00:23.550
(Taliesin screaming)

00:23.550 --> 00:25.830
The Supreme Spirit, the Lord of all worlds,

00:25.830 --> 00:28.080
My Lord reigns over them all.

00:28.080 --> 00:29.375
You are young.

00:29.375 --> 00:30.750
To your eyes, perhaps.

00:30.750 --> 00:33.330
My people carry our years more lightly than others.

00:33.330 --> 00:34.430
Ave, Maria!

00:35.294 --> 00:36.930
I would be your wife, Taliesin.

00:36.930 --> 00:38.070
Together we could build the world

00:38.070 --> 00:39.820
more powerful than Atlantis itself.

00:41.280 --> 00:42.783
Atlantis rests at the bottom of the sea,

00:42.783 --> 00:44.211
Morgain.

00:44.211 --> 00:47.130
(water splashing)
(swimmer coughing)

00:47.130 --> 00:49.920
Taliesin, he has declared his love for me.

00:49.920 --> 00:51.000
What have you found?

00:51.000 --> 00:51.833
A hawk!

00:51.833 --> 00:52.743
A merlin.

00:54.038 --> 00:54.871
(merlin screeches)

00:54.871 --> 00:57.000
I've seen a land shining with goodness.

00:57.000 --> 01:00.073
It's the Kingdom of Summer and I will be its king.

01:00.073 --> 01:01.410
(Charis screaming in pain)

01:01.410 --> 01:02.900
The baby's dead.

01:02.900 --> 01:06.047
Jesu!

01:06.047 --> 01:09.288
(Charis crying)
(rain pounding)

01:09.288 --> 01:10.800
(Taliesin chanting ethereally)

01:10.800 --> 01:11.643
God in heaven.

01:12.904 --> 01:15.773
(baby cooing)

01:15.773 --> 01:17.010
(baby crying)

01:17.010 --> 01:18.830
My son has the eyes of a hawk!

01:18.830 --> 01:20.542
Of a merlin.

01:20.542 --> 01:22.000
(tense dramatic music)
(arrow slices)

01:22.000 --> 01:25.000
No!
(baby crying)

01:26.097 --> 01:30.180
(tense dramatic music continues)

01:31.361 --> 01:34.899
(thunder rumbling)

01:34.899 --> 01:38.163
(airy pensive music)

01:38.163 --> 01:41.246
(graphics whooshing)

01:42.951 --> 01:45.951
(airy bright chime)

01:48.258 --> 01:53.258
(airy haunting music)
(birds chirping)

01:56.662 --> 01:58.609
(airy haunting music continues)

01:58.609 --> 02:01.884
(crow cawing)

02:01.884 --> 02:04.551
(birds singing)

02:08.050 --> 02:10.610
(footsteps scuffling)

02:10.610 --> 02:13.827
They say that Merlin is mad.

02:18.919 --> 02:21.419
(crow cawing)

02:23.793 --> 02:25.650
(airy tense music)

02:25.650 --> 02:27.990
(water babbling)

02:27.990 --> 02:29.733
They say he was a king in Dyfed,

02:30.706 --> 02:34.353
that his rule was just and his hand was strong.

02:38.010 --> 02:39.753
They say he was a bard,

02:40.860 --> 02:43.893
the son of a princess of lost Atlantis,

02:45.030 --> 02:47.343
and a Cymry prophet of great renown.

02:48.818 --> 02:51.210
(feet pattering)

02:51.210 --> 02:55.623
They say the future and the past are known to him.

02:57.425 --> 02:59.970
(birds singing)

02:59.970 --> 03:03.213
That the fire and the wind tell him their secrets.

03:04.613 --> 03:05.446
(grass rustling)

03:05.446 --> 03:06.900
That the magic of the Hill Folk and Druids

03:06.900 --> 03:11.522
and Daughters of Bel come forth at his easy command.

03:11.522 --> 03:14.272
(grass rustling)

03:15.270 --> 03:18.573
They say he slew hundreds.

03:19.800 --> 03:21.213
Hundreds, do you hear?

03:22.830 --> 03:26.580
That the world burned and the ground trembled at his wrath.

03:26.580 --> 03:30.003
Lord Death thanked him for his terrible harvest.

03:30.900 --> 03:31.733
Death!

03:32.737 --> 03:33.570
(rain pattering)

03:33.570 --> 03:35.603
You have taken all of the others.

03:38.316 --> 03:40.812
Why have you not taken me?

03:40.812 --> 03:44.108
(thunder crashes)

03:44.108 --> 03:47.025
(thunder rumbling)

03:48.226 --> 03:53.209
Go back the way you came!

03:56.356 --> 04:00.725
(discordant dramatic music)

04:00.725 --> 04:03.475
(mournful music)

04:09.471 --> 04:13.054
(mournful music continues)

04:22.013 --> 04:25.596
(mournful music continues)

04:31.818 --> 04:35.318
(dramatic mournful music)

04:42.527 --> 04:46.860
(dramatic mournful music continues)

04:54.081 --> 04:58.414
(dramatic mournful music continues)

05:01.973 --> 05:05.556
(dramatic inspiring music)

05:12.770 --> 05:15.809
(dramatic inspiring music continues)

05:15.809 --> 05:18.441
(choir singing in foreign language)

05:18.441 --> 05:22.858
(dramatic inspiring music continues)

05:40.831 --> 05:43.135
(wind howling)

05:43.135 --> 05:44.489
(crow cawing)

05:44.489 --> 05:47.656
(airy mournful music)

05:48.681 --> 05:51.514
(hooves clopping)

05:57.716 --> 06:00.549
(hooves clopping)

06:03.858 --> 06:06.691
(horses snorting)

06:08.244 --> 06:12.244
(airy mournful music continues)

06:16.948 --> 06:18.175
(horse snorts)

06:18.175 --> 06:20.925
(horse whinnies)

06:25.385 --> 06:27.968
(chains clang)

06:30.107 --> 06:33.150
Do not raise your hand against me again, Daned,

06:33.150 --> 06:34.200
if you would keep it.

06:38.313 --> 06:40.050
How do you know my name?

06:40.050 --> 06:41.550
I know a great many things.

06:41.550 --> 06:43.713
Silence! It's a trick!

06:44.700 --> 06:45.723
A trick, Iddec?

06:47.135 --> 06:47.968
Is that what you believe?

06:49.460 --> 06:51.913
Duach!

06:51.913 --> 06:52.746
(horse snorts)

06:52.746 --> 06:53.700
What is it?

06:53.700 --> 06:55.020
He knows us!

06:55.020 --> 06:58.083
He knows nothing you haven't already told him.

06:59.400 --> 07:02.163
And you! Do not test me!

07:03.900 --> 07:05.820
I'm a powerful druid.

07:05.820 --> 07:08.610
I would speak lightly of power, friend,

07:08.610 --> 07:10.533
for I know whence your power comes.

07:12.013 --> 07:13.289
(hooves clopping)

07:13.289 --> 07:14.580
(horse snorts)

07:14.580 --> 07:16.850
Whoever they were, they've moved on.

07:16.850 --> 07:20.265
You know well who they were, son of Vortigern,

07:20.265 --> 07:22.515
the very Saecsen raiders...

07:23.645 --> 07:27.753
You and your father

07:27.753 --> 07:29.295
gave a foothold in our land.

07:31.775 --> 07:33.180
You told him who we are!

07:33.180 --> 07:36.060
No, my prince! I swear it!

07:36.060 --> 07:38.340
I do not care for their manner, My Lord.

07:38.340 --> 07:40.050
Perhaps we should not go with them.

07:40.050 --> 07:43.305
Oh, we have nothing to fear from these men, Pelleas.

07:43.305 --> 07:44.550
And I am eager to meet the man

07:44.550 --> 07:47.370
who has made himself king over all others.

07:47.370 --> 07:49.350
It's the quickest way I know to announce to the world

07:49.350 --> 07:53.193
that Merlin Emrys has returned to the land of the living.

07:54.612 --> 07:56.695
(swelling music)

07:58.975 --> 08:02.340
(Pascent laughs)

08:02.340 --> 08:03.640
My father will like you.

08:05.171 --> 08:08.421
(tense ethereal music)

08:09.961 --> 08:14.961
(horses neighing)
(hooves clopping)

08:20.968 --> 08:23.968
(suspenseful music)

08:25.215 --> 08:30.215
(mallet banging)
(sword clanging)

08:32.580 --> 08:33.797
Perfect! There you go.

08:36.300 --> 08:37.440
Provisions are being gathered,

08:37.440 --> 08:39.090
but we need time to build a wall.

08:40.083 --> 08:41.490
(soldiers chattering)

08:41.490 --> 08:42.590
We haven't got time.

08:46.473 --> 08:47.410
(cart clattering)

08:47.410 --> 08:48.978
Up against the wall, right now!

08:48.978 --> 08:50.333
You said it would be done.

08:50.333 --> 08:52.712
And it will be, Great King.

08:52.712 --> 08:53.545
(soldiers chattering)

08:53.545 --> 08:54.490
Riders approach!

08:57.458 --> 09:01.992
(suspenseful music crescendos)

09:01.992 --> 09:05.355
(Vortigern grunting)

09:05.355 --> 09:07.538
Help you, My Lord.

09:07.538 --> 09:10.386
(horse neighs)

09:10.386 --> 09:12.850
(hooves clopping)

09:12.850 --> 09:14.600
Open the gate!

09:14.600 --> 09:18.251
(chains clanging)

09:18.251 --> 09:20.722
(gate slams)

09:20.722 --> 09:22.578
We need to put a plug. Right there.

09:22.578 --> 09:24.104
Right there!

09:24.104 --> 09:26.120
(knees thudding)

09:26.120 --> 09:27.873
My father and my king,

09:28.710 --> 09:33.710
I bring you a great gift and the answer to your troubles.

09:35.130 --> 09:38.820
No! There must be some mistake.

09:38.820 --> 09:42.990
The man I seek was already old when I was a child.

09:42.990 --> 09:44.978
This cannot be the Merlin.

09:44.978 --> 09:47.970
They say Merlin is of the Faer Folk, My King.

09:47.970 --> 09:50.100
They call him Emrys.

09:50.100 --> 09:50.933
Immortal!

09:53.370 --> 09:54.960
Is that so?

09:54.960 --> 09:57.586
I'm known by many names, Vortigern.

09:57.586 --> 09:58.419
(hand slaps)

09:58.419 --> 10:02.077
(Pelleas grunting angrily)

10:02.077 --> 10:04.560
You will call him, "High King!"

10:04.560 --> 10:05.393
Pascent!

10:12.690 --> 10:16.260
And do you know why I have sought you?

10:16.260 --> 10:19.350
Work on your stronghold is going badly.

10:19.350 --> 10:23.220
Your druids blame an evil spirit for the failure

10:23.220 --> 10:25.293
of your masons to build a decent wall.

10:26.205 --> 10:28.050
(soldiers chattering)

10:28.050 --> 10:29.310
Go on.

10:29.310 --> 10:31.860
They tell you the blood of a virgin-born man is required

10:31.860 --> 10:33.543
to secure your foundations.

10:34.410 --> 10:36.936
Is that not the way of it, Joram?

10:36.936 --> 10:38.107
(Joram grunts)

10:38.107 --> 10:38.940
Ready!

10:38.940 --> 10:41.697
Is there any doubt this is the man we require?

10:43.510 --> 10:45.810
He is full of tricks, sire.

10:45.810 --> 10:47.160
Do not let him confuse you!

10:48.060 --> 10:52.020
My enemies ride against me.

10:52.020 --> 10:55.110
I would fortify this position,

10:55.110 --> 10:59.480
but each night my walls...

11:00.840 --> 11:05.310
Crumble and fall.
(liquid splashing)

11:05.310 --> 11:09.180
Are you indeed a fatherless child, Merlin Emrys?

11:09.180 --> 11:14.040
Or perhaps just another bastard without a father?

11:14.040 --> 11:17.733
My father was Taliesin ap Elphin ap Gwyddno,

11:19.230 --> 11:21.280
names that were once lauded in this land.

11:22.530 --> 11:27.090
Names of great renown in Cymry long, long ago.

11:27.090 --> 11:30.720
But, sire, Taliesin was no mortal.

11:30.720 --> 11:33.930
He was an otherworldly being.

11:33.930 --> 11:36.048
That will be news to my mother.

11:36.048 --> 11:38.190
(Vortigern laughs)

11:38.190 --> 11:41.277
There are no evil spirits at work here, Vortigern,

11:41.277 --> 11:43.863
and no man virgin-born, save one only.

11:45.240 --> 11:50.240
Your problem is taking council from liars and fools.

11:50.730 --> 11:53.430
What proof do you offer that the wall is not cursed?

11:55.048 --> 11:57.736
(suspenseful music)

11:57.736 --> 12:02.736
(picks thudding)
(Pelleas grunting)

12:09.234 --> 12:10.067
(pick thuds)

12:10.067 --> 12:10.900
Underground?

12:11.865 --> 12:12.698
(pick thuds)
Oof!

12:12.698 --> 12:13.531
Underground.

12:14.714 --> 12:16.710
(pick thudding)

12:16.710 --> 12:17.543
You sure?

12:18.420 --> 12:20.680
I grow impatient, Merlin.

12:21.603 --> 12:22.436
(pick thudding)

12:22.436 --> 12:25.069
He'll spill your blood to build his wall.

12:25.069 --> 12:28.538
Oh, aye. Vortigern is a pitiless man.

12:28.538 --> 12:29.580
(pick thuds)

12:29.580 --> 12:30.413
And desperate.

12:31.695 --> 12:33.900
(pick thuds)

12:33.900 --> 12:35.010
But nothing will happen to me

12:35.010 --> 12:37.547
that is not appointed to happen, Pelleas.

12:38.927 --> 12:40.710
You did not bring me back to the world of men

12:40.710 --> 12:41.999
to watch me die in this pit.

12:41.999 --> 12:42.832
(pick thuds)

12:42.832 --> 12:45.120
Enough! These men mock you!

12:45.120 --> 12:47.386
And they waste what little time we have left.

12:47.386 --> 12:48.219
(sword scrapes)

12:48.219 --> 12:49.071
Pascent!

12:49.071 --> 12:49.904
(dramatic music)

12:49.904 --> 12:51.673
(feet stomp)
(Pascent screams)

12:51.673 --> 12:52.719
Ugh!

12:52.719 --> 12:55.887
(fighters grunting)
(haunting music)

12:55.887 --> 12:58.304
(pick thuds)

13:00.388 --> 13:02.479
(pick thuds)

13:02.479 --> 13:05.638
(Pelleas and Pascent grunting)

13:05.638 --> 13:09.169
(haunting music continues)

13:09.169 --> 13:10.450
(pick thuds)

13:10.450 --> 13:13.200
(water bubbling)

13:14.119 --> 13:17.036
(Pascent groaning)

13:18.364 --> 13:21.947
(haunting music continues)

13:25.339 --> 13:28.256
(fighters gasping)

13:35.400 --> 13:36.693
No evil spirits.

13:38.610 --> 13:39.903
No underground dragon.

13:41.880 --> 13:43.320
The spring washes the earth away

13:43.320 --> 13:45.220
beneath the weight of your stone wall.

13:49.440 --> 13:50.273
Traitor.

13:55.524 --> 13:56.367
Traitor!

13:56.367 --> 14:01.022
(knife slices)
(chief druid grunts)

14:01.022 --> 14:02.124
Ah!
(knife slices)

14:02.124 --> 14:04.541
(body thuds)

14:08.520 --> 14:13.233
These men, whom I entrusted with my life,

14:14.700 --> 14:16.893
have shown themselves false before me.

14:19.860 --> 14:24.033
These men were so eager for your blood.

14:27.000 --> 14:29.350
Surely they will not mind my asking for theirs.

14:33.403 --> 14:37.293
(dramatic drumming music)

14:37.293 --> 14:39.403
No! No! No! No!

14:39.403 --> 14:41.688
(swords slicing)
(druids groaning)

14:41.688 --> 14:46.688
(water splashing)
(soldiers chattering)

14:51.330 --> 14:54.163
(chains rattling)

14:55.753 --> 14:58.920
(soldiers chattering)

15:00.597 --> 15:04.073
I am an old man, Merlin,

15:04.073 --> 15:04.906
and a fool.

15:06.480 --> 15:09.720
You have my apology and you will have my reward.

15:09.720 --> 15:12.981
I'll accept nothing from your hand, Vortigern.

15:12.981 --> 15:14.430
(soldiers chattering)

15:14.430 --> 15:18.210
Am I so distasteful to your eyes?

15:18.210 --> 15:20.010
Whatever you would give to me,

15:20.010 --> 15:21.410
you have taken from another.

15:23.430 --> 15:24.663
You have done much evil.

15:26.670 --> 15:29.250
And much evil will be done to you.

15:29.250 --> 15:31.500
He's gone home!

15:33.900 --> 15:37.410
Have I not held the land in peace these last years?

15:37.410 --> 15:39.960
Given the Saecsen safe harbor to plunder our land

15:39.960 --> 15:41.493
is not holding the peace.

15:43.650 --> 15:45.450
I saw no other way.

15:45.450 --> 15:47.673
You traded strength for peace,

15:48.720 --> 15:51.003
but there'll be no peace without strength.

15:52.710 --> 15:55.080
Father, you would free these men

15:55.080 --> 15:57.540
after they humiliated you in your own court?

15:57.540 --> 16:00.393
I humiliated myself, as did you.

16:02.310 --> 16:05.640
You just killed your own counselors on the brink of war.

16:05.640 --> 16:06.963
False counselors!

16:09.229 --> 16:10.593
And an unwinnable war.

16:13.784 --> 16:16.888
(fire crackling)

16:16.888 --> 16:18.189
I had a vision.

16:18.189 --> 16:19.813
(tense music)

16:19.813 --> 16:21.033
A waking dream.

16:22.470 --> 16:25.375
I saw the pit that Merlin dug.

16:25.375 --> 16:27.792
(pick thuds)

16:28.830 --> 16:30.350
I heard his pick...

16:31.318 --> 16:32.449
(pick thuds)

16:32.449 --> 16:35.819
As it struck the stone, only instead of water...

16:35.819 --> 16:38.059
(pick thuds)
(water bubbling)

16:38.059 --> 16:40.023
A great cavern lay beneath.

16:41.057 --> 16:44.140
(airy pensive music)

16:48.600 --> 16:51.573
In the cavern, were two great stones like eggs.

16:52.470 --> 16:53.760
Inside the eggs,

16:53.760 --> 16:57.540
two dragons came forth to battle one another.

16:57.540 --> 17:00.843
The first was white as milk.

17:01.740 --> 17:03.027
And the other...

17:03.027 --> 17:06.323
(thunder crashes)

17:06.323 --> 17:07.156
Red...

17:09.747 --> 17:10.580
As blood!

17:14.280 --> 17:16.653
And they fought each other, the dragons,

17:17.550 --> 17:20.523
and their battle was terrible to behold.

17:22.980 --> 17:24.657
Sorely they wounded one another,

17:24.657 --> 17:26.910
and when they could fight no more,

17:26.910 --> 17:30.693
they dragged themselves back into their eggs and slept,

17:31.920 --> 17:35.793
but only to fight again once they were rested.

17:38.070 --> 17:39.323
What of this dream?

17:40.969 --> 17:41.802
Merlin?

17:44.051 --> 17:44.884
Merlin?

17:46.131 --> 17:47.403
Master?

17:47.403 --> 17:50.570
(soldiers chattering)

17:53.547 --> 17:54.993
The dream, Merlin.

17:56.550 --> 17:57.963
What of this dream?

18:00.540 --> 18:02.957
Do you really want to know?

18:06.813 --> 18:08.313
Flee, Vortigern.

18:09.510 --> 18:12.603
If you would live, you must flee.

18:13.710 --> 18:16.410
The dragons you have seen are your enemies,

18:16.410 --> 18:18.303
white for the Saecsen horde,

18:19.650 --> 18:22.920
red for the True Sons of Britain

18:22.920 --> 18:25.263
whose father you murdered for your crown.

18:26.880 --> 18:29.310
But they war with each other, not with us.

18:29.310 --> 18:32.163
The Saecsen may still join us after all we've given them.

18:33.630 --> 18:35.130
(enchanted tense music)

18:35.130 --> 18:36.543
Is there no hope for me?

18:38.310 --> 18:42.660
Here is your hope and the hope of our people.

18:42.660 --> 18:44.850
From the events of which you have set in motion,

18:44.850 --> 18:48.063
a king will arise to hold all Britain in his hand.

18:49.380 --> 18:52.563
A High King who will be the wonder of the world,

18:53.700 --> 18:55.770
a chief dragon

18:55.770 --> 18:58.263
to utterly devour the white dragon of the pit.

18:59.465 --> 19:02.632
(soldiers chattering)

19:04.083 --> 19:04.916
You?

19:07.731 --> 19:09.450
I do not know.

19:09.450 --> 19:11.193
He speaks of destruction!

19:12.300 --> 19:15.720
I will ride this very night to the Saecsen shore

19:15.720 --> 19:18.108
to rally our friends to our cause.

19:18.108 --> 19:19.164
Ride!

19:19.164 --> 19:20.490
Ride then, boy.

19:20.490 --> 19:24.183
Ride and do not tarry! Our doom is upon us.

19:25.342 --> 19:27.039
Ride!

19:29.203 --> 19:32.620
(airy suspenseful music)

19:35.790 --> 19:39.393
If this is to be Vortigern's last stand,

19:42.000 --> 19:44.433
let my son be well away from this place.

19:48.318 --> 19:50.250
(metal clanging)

19:50.250 --> 19:51.660
Put those arrows on high.

19:51.660 --> 19:53.560
They'll be of no use to you down here!

19:54.810 --> 19:56.760
It would be very helpful if you stayed.

19:58.020 --> 19:59.493
My road lies another way.

20:02.035 --> 20:05.341
(sword scrapes)

20:05.341 --> 20:06.953
Boy!

20:06.953 --> 20:09.001
What's the matter?

20:09.001 --> 20:10.761
What is this?

20:10.761 --> 20:12.510
Bring it up! I'll bring it up.

20:12.510 --> 20:15.160
If there is to be a battle, I'll fight for my king.

20:16.499 --> 20:17.370
(cart clattering)

20:17.370 --> 20:18.840
Nay.

20:18.840 --> 20:22.620
Nay! Not for another summer yet.

20:22.620 --> 20:25.413
I'll do my part, My Lord, like every other man here.

20:26.750 --> 20:29.917
(soldiers chattering)

20:31.950 --> 20:35.460
Aid the archers at the top of the tower, the very top,

20:35.460 --> 20:37.080
you guard their backs.

20:37.080 --> 20:38.653
Yes?

20:38.653 --> 20:41.910
(knife scrapes)

20:41.910 --> 20:42.933
Guard their backs.

20:46.397 --> 20:47.880
Yes, now. (laughs)

20:47.880 --> 20:49.113
Here, let me help you with this.

20:49.113 --> 20:50.580
Stop your trembling!

20:50.580 --> 20:53.850
Take heart, you people of the Island of the Mighty,

20:53.850 --> 20:56.973
for the soul of Britain is stirring again.

20:59.226 --> 21:00.059
Dafyd?

21:01.632 --> 21:03.709
(airy wistful music)

21:03.709 --> 21:05.256
Merlin!

21:05.256 --> 21:06.089
Dafyd!

21:06.089 --> 21:08.089
My Lord, you're alive!

21:09.062 --> 21:14.062
To see you after all these years. (sobs)

21:16.392 --> 21:19.752
But you have not altered a whit.

21:19.752 --> 21:24.752
(airy wistful music continues)
(soldiers chattering)

21:26.090 --> 21:30.247
Dafyd, what is this?
(shackles rattle)

21:30.247 --> 21:32.830
(Dafyd groans)

21:36.157 --> 21:38.740
Why is this holy man in chains?

21:45.450 --> 21:46.980
For treason.

21:46.980 --> 21:51.220
We hoped to appeal to the High King in Jesu's name

21:52.140 --> 21:53.940
to show charity for the women

21:53.940 --> 21:57.090
and children displaced by the raiding Saecsen.

21:57.090 --> 21:58.890
I will not be lectured to

21:58.890 --> 22:01.983
by worshipers of some sand-starved lunatic.

22:03.030 --> 22:04.833
He was not persuaded.

22:08.187 --> 22:09.755
(Dafyd sobbing)

22:09.755 --> 22:12.030
Of all of your many sins, Vortigern,

22:12.030 --> 22:15.213
keeping this man from his work is chief among them.

22:16.140 --> 22:17.290
That's very doubtful.

22:18.420 --> 22:21.693
Free these men if you would save your soul.

22:24.270 --> 22:25.233
Save my soul?

22:27.024 --> 22:28.410
(Vortigern scoffs)

22:28.410 --> 22:29.603
Keep it tight then!

22:31.063 --> 22:32.163
I will not!

22:33.120 --> 22:35.920
Then I will claim the reward that you have offered me.

22:37.170 --> 22:41.463
Free these men and our debt is paid.

22:42.789 --> 22:45.956
(soldiers chattering)

22:51.621 --> 22:54.454
(Vortigern roars)

23:02.299 --> 23:05.280
(shackles rattling)

23:05.280 --> 23:09.350
You are a taxing man...

23:10.256 --> 23:11.089
Merlin Emrys.

23:12.510 --> 23:17.510
And yet there are few enough who will speak plainly to me.

23:20.283 --> 23:22.672
Thatching! Thatching!

23:22.672 --> 23:24.255
Out past that gate.

23:25.740 --> 23:28.040
Farewell, Vortigern.

23:28.040 --> 23:29.283
We will not meet again.

23:33.330 --> 23:36.366
Goodbye, Merlin.

23:36.366 --> 23:41.366
(brooding enchanted music)
(hooves clopping)

23:50.106 --> 23:51.022
(arrow thuds)
Ugh!

23:51.022 --> 23:53.772
(horse whinnies)

23:55.960 --> 23:56.793
Daned!

23:58.232 --> 23:59.065
(horse snorts)

23:59.065 --> 24:01.815
(horse whinnies)

24:03.928 --> 24:06.310
(sword scrapes)

24:06.310 --> 24:07.143
Who's there?

24:09.112 --> 24:12.195
(gentle tense music)

24:13.500 --> 24:14.463
Show yourself!

24:16.050 --> 24:19.000
I wouldn't expect a warrior to turn his back on an enemy.

24:23.115 --> 24:23.948
And now?

24:25.218 --> 24:27.245
And now we know you're no warrior.

24:27.245 --> 24:31.662
(fist pounds)
(body thuds)

24:31.662 --> 24:34.829
(soldiers chattering)

24:37.069 --> 24:42.069
(swords clanging)
(fighters grunting)

24:42.776 --> 24:44.510
(Dafyd grunts)

24:44.510 --> 24:46.653
Do I look too old to mount a horse?

24:47.886 --> 24:50.469
(Dafyd grunts)

24:51.840 --> 24:53.176
I know.

24:53.176 --> 24:54.009
(horse whinnies)

24:54.009 --> 24:56.520
I know!
(enchanted flute music)

24:56.520 --> 24:58.563
But look at you, Myrddin Bach.

25:00.840 --> 25:04.110
You are the flower of your race.

25:04.110 --> 25:07.171
Praise God for your long life.

25:07.171 --> 25:08.974
(fighter grunting)

25:08.974 --> 25:11.427
(Dafyd laughing)

25:11.427 --> 25:14.368
(wood swords clacking)
(fighters grunting)

25:14.368 --> 25:17.785
(cheerful wistful music)

25:19.552 --> 25:24.552
(wood swords clacking)
(fighters grunting)

25:26.062 --> 25:28.694
(body thuds)
(Merlin grunts)

25:28.694 --> 25:30.720
That is enough combat for today, Hawk.

25:30.720 --> 25:33.630
Why must you torment me with Latin?

25:33.630 --> 25:35.820
Because the word of the true God is sharper,

25:35.820 --> 25:37.500
even than the two-edged sword.

25:37.500 --> 25:39.240
Tell that to the Picti!

25:39.240 --> 25:41.640
Tell that to the Irish raider!

25:41.640 --> 25:44.790
I will learn Latin when I'm old like Hafgan.

25:44.790 --> 25:47.567
How old do you think me, Myrddin Bach?

25:47.567 --> 25:50.280
You're as old as the oak on Shrine Hill.

25:50.280 --> 25:51.723
Not quite as old as that.

25:53.240 --> 25:54.723
But what is age to you, hmm?

25:56.070 --> 25:57.690
You will grow to be as old as any oak

25:57.690 --> 25:59.640
in the Island of the Mighty.

25:59.640 --> 26:01.590
Does that mean I'll be king forever?

26:01.590 --> 26:02.423
Mm!

26:03.960 --> 26:06.523
'Tis a great thing to be a king, Hawk.

26:06.523 --> 26:07.983
A very great thing indeed.

26:09.840 --> 26:12.993
But there is authority of a kind even kings must bend to.

26:14.400 --> 26:17.730
Discover this, and whether you wear a torc of gold

26:17.730 --> 26:19.710
or a beggar's rags,

26:19.710 --> 26:22.743
you will earn the name Ambrosius.

26:23.760 --> 26:24.860
What does that mean?

26:26.166 --> 26:27.900
Hmm.
(birds singing)

26:27.900 --> 26:31.088
Study your Latin.

26:33.943 --> 26:35.532
(raiders shouting)

26:35.532 --> 26:36.365
Stay!

26:38.679 --> 26:40.770
(dramatic suspenseful music)

26:40.770 --> 26:41.603
Merlin!

26:42.711 --> 26:45.878
(soldiers chattering)

26:46.730 --> 26:48.300
We must ride.

26:48.300 --> 26:49.700
Vortigern's end is upon him!

26:51.420 --> 26:53.823
Where would you have us go, My Lord?

26:53.823 --> 26:56.307
Does Pendaran still reign in Maridunum?

26:59.618 --> 27:04.285
King Pendaran joined his fathers many years ago, Hawk.

27:07.050 --> 27:08.700
Your grandparents too, My Lord.

27:11.063 --> 27:12.230
King Elphin...

27:13.419 --> 27:15.710
Lady Rhonwyn, Cuall...

27:17.378 --> 27:18.295
And Hafgan.

27:20.460 --> 27:21.293
Fool.

27:23.460 --> 27:25.770
Lurking up there in your hovel,

27:25.770 --> 27:27.720
haunting the rock wastes like a wraith.

27:29.610 --> 27:32.913
Did you not know that men mark their years differently?

27:36.450 --> 27:38.553
Does Custennin still rule Celyddon?

27:38.553 --> 27:40.593
His Atlantian Blood is strong!

27:42.600 --> 27:43.433
But we would-

27:43.433 --> 27:47.610
We would not be welcome there.

27:47.610 --> 27:48.803
No, My Lord.

27:51.690 --> 27:54.550
Go back the way you came. (laughs)

27:56.007 --> 27:57.873
I'm not sure what that means.

27:59.490 --> 28:00.323
Neither am I.

28:01.844 --> 28:04.677
(horn trumpeting)

28:06.540 --> 28:09.623
(arrows whooshing)
(arrows whistling)

28:09.623 --> 28:10.456
Cover!

28:11.808 --> 28:16.808
(arrows whooshing)
(soldiers screaming)

28:17.996 --> 28:21.079
(heartbeat thumping)

28:22.722 --> 28:24.194
Now!

28:24.194 --> 28:29.194
(hooves clopping)
(soldiers screaming)

28:30.540 --> 28:33.290
(horse whinnies)

28:34.231 --> 28:36.981
(dramatic music)

28:42.050 --> 28:45.633
(dramatic music continues)

28:48.716 --> 28:49.567
(airy tense music)

28:49.567 --> 28:51.093
Deserters already?

28:53.700 --> 28:54.533
Let them fly.

28:55.860 --> 28:57.870
The battle is before us.

28:57.870 --> 29:00.470
And if one of them is the usurper himself?

29:06.900 --> 29:08.700
It must be me who takes the tower.

29:13.580 --> 29:15.600
(sword slices)

29:15.600 --> 29:16.480
For justice.

29:17.612 --> 29:18.779
For Britain.

29:21.634 --> 29:23.030
(hooves clopping)

29:23.030 --> 29:25.504
(horse whinnies)

29:25.504 --> 29:27.895
(sword slices)
Archers!

29:27.895 --> 29:32.895
(gate banging)
(soldiers chattering)

29:33.260 --> 29:35.799
(arrows whooshing)
(arrows thudding)

29:35.799 --> 29:38.871
They have come for blood!

29:38.871 --> 29:40.951
Give them blood!

29:40.951 --> 29:44.866
(gate crashes)
(soldiers screaming)

29:44.866 --> 29:49.866
(swords clanging)
(soldiers chattering angrily)

29:52.812 --> 29:57.812
(swords clanging)
(bodies thudding)

30:02.679 --> 30:05.762
(soldiers screaming)

30:07.681 --> 30:10.647
(swords slicing)

30:10.647 --> 30:12.514
(horse whinnies)

30:12.514 --> 30:14.612
Where is the king?

30:14.612 --> 30:16.403
Vortigern!

30:16.403 --> 30:18.250
(swords clanging)
(soldiers screaming)

30:18.250 --> 30:19.455
Yah!

30:19.455 --> 30:21.162
Yah! Yah!

30:21.162 --> 30:24.223
(body slams)
(Vortigern grunts)

30:24.223 --> 30:29.223
(swords clanging)
(soldiers chattering)

30:32.296 --> 30:35.296
(Vortigern screams)

30:36.852 --> 30:38.569
(sword slices)
Yah!

30:38.569 --> 30:43.569
(swords clanging)
(soldiers screaming)

30:49.247 --> 30:50.997
Vortigern! Vortigern!

30:53.887 --> 30:56.387
(head cracks)

30:57.258 --> 30:58.091
Vortigern!

30:59.907 --> 31:04.907
(Vortigern gasps)
(door slams)

31:07.114 --> 31:08.383
Hold the door!

31:08.383 --> 31:11.300
(soldier grunting)

31:12.383 --> 31:17.383
(tense eerie music)
(soldiers grunting)

31:20.258 --> 31:22.524
(body thuds)

31:22.524 --> 31:23.884
(door slams)

31:23.884 --> 31:28.884
(knife slices)
(Vortigern gasps)

31:30.777 --> 31:33.860
(soldiers screaming)

31:35.769 --> 31:40.769
(Vortigern grunting)
(mournful enchanted music)

31:43.609 --> 31:48.609
(soldiers screaming)
(soldiers grunting)

31:55.150 --> 31:58.521
(soldiers grunting)
(bodies thudding)

31:58.521 --> 32:00.334
I need help! Help me!
(fire crackling)

32:00.334 --> 32:03.225
The cart! Bring the cart! Bring it!

32:03.225 --> 32:06.286
(cart slams)

32:06.286 --> 32:09.036
(fire whooshing)

32:15.246 --> 32:18.092
(soldiers screaming)

32:18.092 --> 32:19.509
Let the fox burn!

32:21.305 --> 32:23.140
(soldiers screaming)

32:23.140 --> 32:24.846
Ah!

32:24.846 --> 32:27.459
(knife slices)

32:27.459 --> 32:30.585
(Vortigern pants)

32:30.585 --> 32:35.002
(mournful enchanted music continues)

32:39.832 --> 32:42.749
(Vortigern groans)

32:44.441 --> 32:49.441
(fire crackling)
(soldiers hollering)

32:53.262 --> 32:57.679
(mournful enchanted music continues)

32:59.364 --> 33:03.197
(Vortigern breathing raspily)

33:08.728 --> 33:12.548
(Vortigern breathing raspily)

33:12.548 --> 33:16.965
(mournful enchanted music continues)

33:18.436 --> 33:23.436
(soldiers hollering)
(fire crackling)

33:25.335 --> 33:28.168
(arrows thudding)

33:29.640 --> 33:31.773
Thus ends the reign of Vortigern,

33:32.910 --> 33:34.413
High King of Britain.

33:35.629 --> 33:38.379
(birds chirping)

33:39.864 --> 33:42.864
(suspenseful music)

33:45.330 --> 33:49.411
Hail Uther, son of Constans!

33:49.411 --> 33:53.763
(suspenseful music crescendos)

33:53.763 --> 33:56.930
(airy haunting music)

34:03.191 --> 34:08.191
(footsteps crunching)
(metal clinking)

34:11.776 --> 34:15.776
(airy haunting music continues)

34:16.963 --> 34:19.640
With me, thanks.

34:19.640 --> 34:22.807
(soldiers chattering)

34:24.877 --> 34:29.017
Aurelius!

34:30.285 --> 34:31.118
Aurelius!

34:32.109 --> 34:32.942
Aurelius!

34:34.200 --> 34:35.033
Aurelius!

34:36.225 --> 34:37.058
Aurelius!

34:38.691 --> 34:39.524
Aurelius!

34:40.931 --> 34:41.764
Aurelius!

34:42.956 --> 34:43.789
Aurelius!

34:44.963 --> 34:45.796
Aurelius!

34:47.480 --> 34:48.313
Aurelius!

34:50.029 --> 34:50.862
Aurelius!

34:52.969 --> 34:55.616
(soldiers cheering)

34:55.616 --> 34:57.033
Hail, Aurelius.

34:58.467 --> 35:03.467
(fire crackling)
(Uther panting)

35:08.838 --> 35:11.921
(crown thuds gently)

35:14.636 --> 35:16.329
(Uther panting)

35:16.329 --> 35:18.912
(knife slices)

35:23.350 --> 35:26.017
(Uther gasping)

35:29.846 --> 35:31.096
An ugly gash.

35:32.278 --> 35:33.445
For Britain.

35:34.353 --> 35:37.590
I've never seen my brother bested in battle before.

35:37.590 --> 35:39.120
He fought well.

35:39.120 --> 35:40.080
And my men?

35:40.080 --> 35:43.983
Alive, sire, though somewhat worse for wear.

35:45.480 --> 35:47.010
Sire?

35:47.010 --> 35:49.650
Fashionable honorific for a High King, is it not?

35:49.650 --> 35:51.480
You think me High King?

35:51.480 --> 35:54.600
Do not all the kings of Britain sing your praise this day?

35:54.600 --> 35:57.480
I can think of a few singing their own praises.

35:57.480 --> 35:59.460
Some men who marched up with me only hours ago.

35:59.460 --> 36:00.900
Hmm!

36:00.900 --> 36:01.733
Well, what does it matter

36:01.733 --> 36:04.530
what a few self-important grumblers think?

36:04.530 --> 36:07.847
Because I need every single one of them to defeat Hengist.

36:07.847 --> 36:09.663
Ah! The Saecsen king.

36:10.590 --> 36:12.300
Those grumblers are all that stand between

36:12.300 --> 36:13.800
my rump on the throne and his.

36:15.990 --> 36:18.400
Yours is the preferred rump, My King.

36:18.400 --> 36:19.380
(Pelleas chuckles)

36:19.380 --> 36:22.563
My Lord Brother, you've only just met this man.

36:24.090 --> 36:24.923
Only just met?

36:26.186 --> 36:29.160
(fire crackling)
(airy enchanted music)

36:29.160 --> 36:30.310
Oh, I think not, Uther.

36:32.790 --> 36:34.540
I've known Merlin a very long time.

36:35.883 --> 36:38.910
Merlin? (laughs)

36:38.910 --> 36:39.933
That's impossible.

36:41.130 --> 36:43.683
Merlin was a myth before our father was even born.

36:45.660 --> 36:46.810
And yet...

36:47.700 --> 36:49.680
Well done, Aurelius.

36:49.680 --> 36:52.130
Perhaps you have the makings of a king after all.

36:55.360 --> 36:58.527
(soldiers chattering)

37:00.090 --> 37:01.200
Three of the Southern kings

37:01.200 --> 37:03.300
never returned to camp this morning.

37:03.300 --> 37:06.270
Yet they're happy enough to see you challenge Vortigern.

37:06.270 --> 37:07.103
Aye!

37:08.130 --> 37:10.230
Doesn't mean they're happy to see me High king.

37:10.230 --> 37:13.530
Hmm! It's worse than I thought.

37:13.530 --> 37:16.503
700 men is not a man too many to face Hengist.

37:18.240 --> 37:19.073
Traitor!

37:23.460 --> 37:25.863
How quickly you trade one master for another.

37:29.460 --> 37:30.293
Meddler!

37:31.798 --> 37:33.630
You know this man?

37:33.630 --> 37:36.480
Aurelius, your prisoner is Prince Pascent ap Vortigern,

37:37.860 --> 37:39.243
son of your fallen foe.

37:40.650 --> 37:42.030
We thought him a mere scout.

37:42.030 --> 37:43.863
You killed my father, bastard.

37:45.206 --> 37:49.012
(wind howls gently)

37:49.012 --> 37:52.950
(tense enchanted music)

37:52.950 --> 37:56.997
Your father killed our father.

37:56.997 --> 37:58.203
The debt is now paid.

37:59.670 --> 38:00.503
And mine?

38:01.620 --> 38:03.520
Who will pay the blood price to Pascent?

38:03.520 --> 38:04.448
(sword slices)

38:04.448 --> 38:06.048
The devil pay you!

38:06.048 --> 38:07.465
Uther, brother.

38:08.460 --> 38:10.680
We came here for justice.

38:10.680 --> 38:13.893
Really? Because I thought we came here for Britain.

38:15.030 --> 38:16.650
And every day this scum draws breath,

38:16.650 --> 38:18.270
he's a threat to your reign.

38:18.270 --> 38:20.550
Your brother is right, sire.

38:20.550 --> 38:22.563
Vortigern's son is not a forgiving man.

38:26.010 --> 38:28.860
And yet I will not start my reign a murderer,

38:28.860 --> 38:29.710
as Vortigern did.

38:32.800 --> 38:36.133
(Uther spits violently)

38:37.460 --> 38:40.043
(sword slices)

38:46.720 --> 38:49.865
(rope slices)

38:49.865 --> 38:52.615
I give to you your life, Pascent.

38:53.728 --> 38:55.678
Do not give me a cause to take it back.

39:02.208 --> 39:05.375
(soldiers chattering)

39:09.494 --> 39:12.077
(sword clacks)

39:14.790 --> 39:17.253
You've made a grave mistake, brother.

39:19.200 --> 39:22.952
And if so, it is mine to make.

39:22.952 --> 39:26.035
(airy pensive music)

39:31.598 --> 39:35.598
(airy pensive music crescendos)

39:38.914 --> 39:42.247
(sword scraping slowly)

39:46.576 --> 39:48.087
He's coming!

39:48.087 --> 39:50.163
How came you by this blade?

39:54.570 --> 39:55.403
Grandfather!

39:56.965 --> 39:58.939
Grandfather, he's coming!

39:58.939 --> 40:01.689
(cheerful music)

40:08.059 --> 40:09.083
(horse neighs)

40:09.083 --> 40:10.166
Is he a king?

40:11.670 --> 40:13.127
He's more than a king.

40:16.995 --> 40:17.828
(diners chattering)

40:17.828 --> 40:20.310
Boy has the eyes of a preying bird.

40:20.310 --> 40:22.080
Stand up straight, lad.

40:22.080 --> 40:25.020
You're being addressed by the Dux Britanniarum,

40:25.020 --> 40:27.543
commander of all the Roman forces in Britain.

40:29.037 --> 40:31.440
(diners chattering)

40:31.440 --> 40:32.583
I knew your father.

40:35.490 --> 40:37.080
Tell me, boy,

40:37.080 --> 40:39.930
what does the son of Taliesin see with those golden eyes?

40:40.814 --> 40:43.502
(diners chattering)

40:43.502 --> 40:46.419
(commander scoffs)

40:49.454 --> 40:51.353
I see a sword.

40:51.353 --> 40:53.280
(gentle tense music)

40:53.280 --> 40:54.180
The hilt is silver

40:54.180 --> 40:56.493
and bears a purple gem carved like an eagle.

40:57.420 --> 41:00.025
It's is an emperor's sword.

41:00.025 --> 41:01.775
An emperor's sword?

41:02.610 --> 41:03.990
That's enough, lad!

41:03.990 --> 41:05.140
What else do you see?

41:06.090 --> 41:11.090
I see a ring of kings standing like stones in a circle.

41:13.170 --> 41:14.943
A woman kneels in their midst.

41:15.870 --> 41:18.033
She holds the sword in her hands.

41:19.650 --> 41:23.163
She is speaking but no one hears her, no one listens.

41:25.020 --> 41:26.210
I see the blade...

41:27.360 --> 41:30.063
Rusting and forgotten.

41:32.033 --> 41:36.540
(airy tense music crescendos)

41:36.540 --> 41:38.090
Shall we have a song, Hafgan?

41:41.220 --> 41:43.225
Indeed we shall.

41:43.225 --> 41:46.225
(diners chattering)

41:51.566 --> 41:52.399
Be safe!

41:53.454 --> 41:58.454
(footsteps marching)
(airy ethereal music)

42:02.585 --> 42:06.585
(airy ethereal music continues)

42:08.067 --> 42:11.065
(cloak whooshes)

42:11.065 --> 42:14.148
(footsteps marching)

42:18.325 --> 42:21.408
(footsteps marching)

42:22.605 --> 42:27.163
(wind blowing gently)
(bird singing)

42:27.163 --> 42:29.613
I never saw Maximus or his sword again.

42:33.330 --> 42:34.798
A remarkable story.

42:34.798 --> 42:36.543
Aye! If it were true!

42:40.080 --> 42:41.780
The sword belonged to my father.

42:42.630 --> 42:45.990
How he came by it, I cannot say.

42:45.990 --> 42:46.823
I do know this.

42:49.027 --> 42:49.860
The paths that brought us together

42:49.860 --> 42:51.243
began long before this day.

42:53.760 --> 42:55.510
I will trust you, Merlin Ambrosius.

42:58.620 --> 43:00.729
I would have you my counselor.

43:00.729 --> 43:01.562
(Uther sighs)

43:01.562 --> 43:02.395
By the gods!

43:02.395 --> 43:03.745
I need an advisor, Uther!

43:04.830 --> 43:07.587
We're not exactly neck-deep in volunteers.

43:07.587 --> 43:12.587
(soldiers chattering)
(soldiers laughing)

43:14.723 --> 43:17.340
(enchanted tense music)

43:17.340 --> 43:18.837
Very well, Aurelius.

43:21.720 --> 43:25.560
Let it be as you say and heed the word of your counselors.

43:25.560 --> 43:28.083
The Southern kings will continue to desert you.

43:29.880 --> 43:31.410
Dismiss them.

43:31.410 --> 43:32.403
The hell we will!

43:33.465 --> 43:34.298
Uther.

43:35.430 --> 43:36.360
Go on.

43:36.360 --> 43:38.910
Let them return to their own land and see for themselves

43:38.910 --> 43:40.810
what the Saecsen raiders have wrought.

43:41.730 --> 43:45.270
Their own people will demand to unite under your banner.

43:45.270 --> 43:47.553
I have friends in the west and north.

43:48.690 --> 43:51.690
I believe we can count them among your supporters.

43:51.690 --> 43:52.970
Master Merlin, I...

43:55.140 --> 43:58.540
I will ride to them and rally them to your cause.

43:58.540 --> 43:59.580
And what are we supposed to do

43:59.580 --> 44:02.610
while you play king-making, Merlin?

44:02.610 --> 44:05.510
I know a place you'll be safe while we build our forces.

44:08.610 --> 44:10.773
This is where it begins.

44:13.250 --> 44:14.493
First, there is a sword.

44:15.810 --> 44:20.810
The sword of Britain and the sword is Britain.

44:21.561 --> 44:25.811
(enchanted tense music crescendos)

44:29.942 --> 44:34.942
(bright enchanted music)
(hooves clopping)

44:42.083 --> 44:46.333
(bright enchanted music continues)

44:53.283 --> 44:58.283
(crickets chirping)
(mallet pounding)

45:02.203 --> 45:04.703
(Dafyd sighs)

45:05.800 --> 45:09.532
It is the answer to many prayers, Merlin,

45:09.532 --> 45:12.368
seeing you again.

45:12.368 --> 45:14.725
(crickets chirping)

45:14.725 --> 45:17.475
(fire crackling)

45:24.210 --> 45:25.930
It's usually you who sets camp

45:27.300 --> 45:28.700
while I stare into the fire.

45:29.970 --> 45:32.403
I fear this plan, My Lord.

45:33.818 --> 45:36.270
The Cymry king will be threatened by your return,

45:36.270 --> 45:37.470
and the north will not help you.

45:37.470 --> 45:41.283
Aurelius has the sword of Magnus Maximus, Pelleas.

45:42.906 --> 45:44.573
The Emperor's Sword.

45:46.320 --> 45:50.073
If you return North, Custennin will not help you.

45:51.120 --> 45:52.740
This is how the Summer Kingdom begins.

45:52.740 --> 45:54.490
My Lord, Custennin will kill you!

45:56.325 --> 45:59.242
(knife scratching)

46:00.243 --> 46:01.713
I've seen how you struggle.

46:03.240 --> 46:05.763
I've never known your awen to burden you so much.

46:11.010 --> 46:12.910
I'm not the man I once was, Pelleas.

46:14.008 --> 46:15.640
(fire crackling)

46:15.640 --> 46:18.557
(knife scratching)

46:21.654 --> 46:26.540
(birds singing)
(knife scratching)

46:26.540 --> 46:29.790
(gentle wistful music)

46:36.900 --> 46:38.133
Hafgan's harp!

46:41.580 --> 46:43.130
Your own one was...

46:45.060 --> 46:45.893
I know.

46:47.609 --> 46:51.692
(gentle wistful music continues)

46:53.742 --> 46:55.492
I don't remember how.

46:57.960 --> 46:59.660
Almost 50 years I've carried it.

47:02.010 --> 47:03.460
Still haven't learned a note.

47:06.542 --> 47:07.792
Pelleas, I...

47:09.103 --> 47:11.163
I am not worthy of your sacrifice.

47:13.020 --> 47:14.973
God alone is worthy of such devotion.

47:17.970 --> 47:22.623
As one cares for another, does he not also care for God?

47:26.370 --> 47:27.820
Listen to me carefully now.

47:29.790 --> 47:32.490
You found me and brought me back to the world of men,

47:32.490 --> 47:33.740
and I thank you for that.

47:36.000 --> 47:36.833
But...

47:36.833 --> 47:38.253
Let others make their choice!

47:41.010 --> 47:41.883
I have made mine.

47:46.470 --> 47:47.420
Goodnight, My Lord.

47:52.932 --> 47:53.932
Goodnight!

47:57.560 --> 47:58.817
My true friend.

48:01.369 --> 48:04.619
(airy enchanted music)

48:08.036 --> 48:09.619
Myrddin.

48:14.329 --> 48:18.339
Remember what they did to you, my love.

48:18.339 --> 48:21.922
(mournful enchanted music)

48:29.721 --> 48:34.138
(mournful enchanted music continues)

48:41.197 --> 48:44.114
(airy tense music)

48:48.535 --> 48:51.798
(leaves rustling)

48:51.798 --> 48:54.218
(knife slices)

48:54.218 --> 48:57.968
(airy tense music continues)

49:04.348 --> 49:08.098
(airy tense music continues)

49:09.356 --> 49:10.957
(Uther grunts)

49:10.957 --> 49:11.790
Ssh!

49:16.738 --> 49:18.626
(footsteps scuffle)

49:18.626 --> 49:22.626
(airy haunting trumpet)

49:22.626 --> 49:25.626
(crickets chirping)

49:30.849 --> 49:34.182
(airy haunting trumpet)

49:39.607 --> 49:42.440
(leaves rustling)

49:44.589 --> 49:47.589
(crickets chirping)

49:51.981 --> 49:54.981
(suspenseful music)

50:01.389 --> 50:05.222
(suspenseful music continues)

50:08.866 --> 50:12.033
(footsteps pattering)

50:18.193 --> 50:22.189
(soldiers chattering in Saecsen)

50:22.189 --> 50:25.356
(footsteps scuffling)

50:28.909 --> 50:31.742
(leaves rustling)

50:34.178 --> 50:39.011
(soldiers speaking in Saecsen)

50:41.793 --> 50:44.525
(wolf howls)

50:44.525 --> 50:47.525
(torches crackling)

50:51.709 --> 50:53.872
(suspenseful music continues)

50:53.872 --> 50:58.455
(soldier speaking in Saecsen)

51:00.164 --> 51:03.997
(suspenseful music continues)

51:10.938 --> 51:14.771
(suspenseful music continues)

51:18.277 --> 51:20.013
(sword scrapes)

51:20.013 --> 51:23.042
(soldier speaking in Saecsen)

51:23.042 --> 51:28.042
(torches crackling)
(crickets chirping)

51:34.021 --> 51:37.021
(torches crackling)

51:40.311 --> 51:43.819
(dramatic music)

51:43.819 --> 51:45.440
(sword slices)
(victim grunts)

51:45.440 --> 51:47.370
(sword slices)
(body thuds)

51:47.370 --> 51:50.773
(victim gasps)
(body thuds)

51:50.773 --> 51:53.523
(victim gasping)

51:58.922 --> 52:00.448
Come!

52:00.448 --> 52:03.698
(haunting tense music)

52:09.848 --> 52:13.931
(haunting tense music continues)

52:15.501 --> 52:18.995
(haunting dramatic music)

52:18.995 --> 52:23.995
(footsteps marching)
(torches crackling)

52:29.976 --> 52:34.309
(haunting dramatic music continues)

52:39.215 --> 52:44.215
(footsteps marching)
(torches crackling)

52:51.339 --> 52:55.672
(haunting dramatic music continues)

52:58.797 --> 53:00.347
Behold your true enemy, O King.

53:01.709 --> 53:02.733
The Saecsen Hengist.

53:05.850 --> 53:07.700
I've never seen so many.

53:09.176 --> 53:11.843
And this but a raiding party fresh from his plunder.

53:13.080 --> 53:15.930
You will not be able to repeal the barbarian on your own.

53:17.340 --> 53:18.640
Wouldn't you agree, Uther?

53:20.250 --> 53:21.780
I'd say we've proven ourselves

53:21.780 --> 53:23.917
more than capable on our own.

53:23.917 --> 53:24.750
Uther!

53:25.944 --> 53:30.540
You slew the usurper Vortigern. Not him.

53:30.540 --> 53:32.490
I burned him alive in a tower, Uther.

53:34.339 --> 53:36.090
I never even met his blade with my own.

53:36.090 --> 53:36.923
Right!

53:36.923 --> 53:39.690
Well, battle isn't about honor, it's about victory.

53:39.690 --> 53:41.880
There will be no victory

53:41.880 --> 53:43.930
without the kings of Britain by our side!

53:46.381 --> 53:48.631
Without Merlin by our side.

53:50.061 --> 53:53.478
(pensive ethereal music)

54:00.248 --> 54:04.498
(pensive ethereal music continues)

54:06.776 --> 54:09.609
(hooves clopping)

54:15.244 --> 54:19.494
(pensive ethereal music continues)

54:20.920 --> 54:23.861
(Dafyd snoring)

54:23.861 --> 54:26.778
(airy tense music)

54:29.493 --> 54:32.076
(Dafyd snorts)

54:37.400 --> 54:39.464
(Dafyd gasps)

54:39.464 --> 54:42.631
(wind blowing gently)

54:43.891 --> 54:44.724
Myrddin?

54:46.951 --> 54:49.054
(dramatic upbeat music)

54:49.054 --> 54:50.376
(horse whinnies)

54:50.376 --> 54:51.209
Myrddin!

54:53.715 --> 54:57.127
(horses whinny)
(hooves clopping)

54:57.127 --> 55:00.377
(airy enchanted music)

55:06.737 --> 55:10.820
(airy enchanted music continues)

55:14.515 --> 55:17.214
May the good God be praised.

55:17.214 --> 55:20.763
What god could build such a place?

55:20.763 --> 55:24.397
Not a god, a king.

55:26.344 --> 55:30.878
Behold Yns Avallach, Hall of the Faery King.

55:30.878 --> 55:34.961
(airy enchanted music continues)

55:39.816 --> 55:41.610
(hooves clop)

55:41.610 --> 55:43.800
Praise the Lord from the high places,

55:43.800 --> 55:45.300
praise him in Halls of Light.

55:45.300 --> 55:46.782
Praise him, all his angels.

55:46.782 --> 55:49.224
Praise him, all you hosts of heaven.

55:49.224 --> 55:50.130
Praise him, sun and moon.

55:50.130 --> 55:51.830
Praise him, all you shining stars.

55:52.904 --> 55:54.750
Praise him, you in the sky realms.

55:54.750 --> 55:57.875
Praise him, you waters above the skies.

55:57.875 --> 55:59.453
Let them all praise the name of the Lord.

56:02.046 --> 56:03.129
Ave, Maria.

56:07.237 --> 56:09.273
Dafyd! You've come home!

56:11.774 --> 56:15.024
(somber wistful music)

56:16.140 --> 56:16.973
Hello, Mother.

56:18.451 --> 56:19.902
(chalice clangs)

56:19.902 --> 56:22.440
Myrddin!

56:22.440 --> 56:23.752
(Charis gasps)
(dramatic ethereal music)

56:23.752 --> 56:28.085
(triumphant music)

56:33.022 --> 56:37.355
(triumphant music)

58:14.260 --> 58:15.967
(dramatic suspenseful music)

58:15.967 --> 58:17.467
(hooves clopping)
(armor clanging)

58:17.467 --> 58:20.030
Aurelius's life is in danger.

58:20.030 --> 58:22.760
(fist punches)
(swords slice)

58:22.760 --> 58:25.110
Until the kings of Britain recognize his claim.

58:26.990 --> 58:29.360
Aurelius has defeated the usurper, Vortigern.

58:29.360 --> 58:31.220
He could find sanctuary here

58:31.220 --> 58:33.530
while I ride to rally what friends we have left.

58:33.530 --> 58:35.689
While we ride to rally your friends.

58:35.689 --> 58:36.522
Uther!

58:36.522 --> 58:39.260
To ensure Merlin is not remiss

58:39.260 --> 58:41.010
pushing your claim in other courts.

58:42.230 --> 58:43.593
Fisher King Sword.

58:43.593 --> 58:45.963
The sword of a High King!

58:45.963 --> 58:48.830
I do not offer it to Aurelius.

58:48.830 --> 58:52.520
Merlin, he will take the torc from my father

58:52.520 --> 58:55.073
and declare himself High King before he is through.

58:56.720 --> 58:59.711
Unless we stop him here and now.

58:59.711 --> 59:00.544
Ah!
(sword slices)

59:00.544 --> 59:02.129
(swords clang)

59:02.129 --> 59:06.129
(haunting dramatic music chord)
