1
00:00:01,180 --> 00:00:03,930
(dramatic music)

2
00:00:05,217 --> 00:00:07,967
(fire crackling)

3
00:00:09,831 --> 00:00:11,894
They were going to kill Arthur.

4
00:00:16,371 --> 00:00:17,334
Can you imagine?

5
00:00:19,461 --> 00:00:20,661
They would've killed him too,

6
00:00:20,661 --> 00:00:22,074
but I put a stop to it.

7
00:00:23,751 --> 00:00:27,204
The arrogance, the stupidity.

8
00:00:29,271 --> 00:00:31,884
Not that Uther ever was one for a scholar's coat.

9
00:00:33,831 --> 00:00:38,037
I heard about their sordid plan in the way that I have,

10
00:00:38,037 --> 00:00:39,621
(voices whispering)

11
00:00:39,621 --> 00:00:44,621
whispers in the wind, faces in the embers of the fire,

12
00:00:46,701 --> 00:00:48,834
and I made it my affair to save him.

13
00:00:50,181 --> 00:00:52,571
The high king would do his worst,

14
00:00:52,571 --> 00:00:55,221
(thunder crashing)

15
00:00:55,221 --> 00:00:56,964
but I would have my way.

16
00:00:58,541 --> 00:01:00,721
My way,

17
00:01:01,700 --> 00:01:02,533
was it?

18
00:01:03,381 --> 00:01:04,914
Was it ever my way?

19
00:01:06,321 --> 00:01:08,691
But I'm getting ahead of myself.

20
00:01:08,691 --> 00:01:09,864
I always am.

21
00:01:11,691 --> 00:01:13,584
This is to be Arthur's story,

22
00:01:16,071 --> 00:01:18,354
but there's more to Arthur than his birth.

23
00:01:19,401 --> 00:01:23,244
To understand him, you have to understand the land.

24
00:01:24,441 --> 00:01:28,794
This land, this island of the mighty.

25
00:01:31,011 --> 00:01:32,704
And you have to understand me,

26
00:01:34,251 --> 00:01:36,297
for I am the man who made him.

27
00:01:36,297 --> 00:01:41,297
(shouting)
(dramatic music)

28
00:01:43,696 --> 00:01:46,279
(wind howling)

29
00:01:47,192 --> 00:01:49,775
(gentle music)

30
00:01:59,096 --> 00:02:02,513
(gentle music continues)

31
00:02:04,582 --> 00:02:07,415
(water murmuring)

32
00:02:16,339 --> 00:02:19,756
(gentle music continues)

33
00:02:29,715 --> 00:02:33,132
(gentle music continues)

34
00:02:42,152 --> 00:02:45,569
(gentle music continues)

35
00:02:54,692 --> 00:02:58,109
(gentle music continues)

36
00:03:07,616 --> 00:03:10,084
(gentle music continues)

37
00:03:10,084 --> 00:03:14,721
Every year of my kingship, it has been my custom

38
00:03:14,721 --> 00:03:17,511
to give the first take of my salmon weir

39
00:03:17,511 --> 00:03:20,961
to one of your number as a sign of my respect.

40
00:03:20,961 --> 00:03:22,314
Respect for what?

41
00:03:24,351 --> 00:03:28,127
Everyone knows that your boy is cursed.

42
00:03:28,127 --> 00:03:30,981
(dramatic music)

43
00:03:30,981 --> 00:03:35,981
So you say, but the weir is mine,

44
00:03:35,991 --> 00:03:37,884
and the salmon mine to give.

45
00:03:40,553 --> 00:03:42,384
Elphin is my only son.

46
00:03:43,761 --> 00:03:47,151
A man must do for his true sons what he can

47
00:03:47,151 --> 00:03:48,984
to advance their fortunes.

48
00:03:50,636 --> 00:03:53,219
(gentle music)

49
00:03:58,731 --> 00:04:03,234
Bring a bounty, boy, and show them the curse is broken.

50
00:04:05,757 --> 00:04:08,424
(water rushing)

51
00:04:10,071 --> 00:04:12,230
And what if the nets are empty?

52
00:04:12,230 --> 00:04:14,897
(pensive music)

53
00:04:24,081 --> 00:04:26,581
You might have warned me about the snow upriver.

54
00:04:27,693 --> 00:04:30,093
You might have warned me of your foolish plan.

55
00:04:34,678 --> 00:04:37,845
(uneasy tense music)

56
00:04:47,414 --> 00:04:51,331
(uneasy tense music continues)

57
00:04:56,235 --> 00:04:58,902
(water rushing)

58
00:05:03,818 --> 00:05:06,651
(Elphin grunting)

59
00:05:10,083 --> 00:05:12,833
(water gurgling)

60
00:05:15,258 --> 00:05:19,175
(uneasy tense music continues)

61
00:05:21,947 --> 00:05:24,697
(water gurgling)

62
00:05:29,330 --> 00:05:32,361
(uneasy music)

63
00:05:32,361 --> 00:05:35,088
(people murmuring)

64
00:05:35,088 --> 00:05:37,344
All his ill luck aforetime was nothing.

65
00:05:38,301 --> 00:05:41,664
You've let him destroy the virtue of our weir.

66
00:05:41,664 --> 00:05:44,414
(water gurgling)

67
00:05:45,913 --> 00:05:47,413
(water splashing)

68
00:05:47,413 --> 00:05:50,913
(uneasy music continues)

69
00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:56,241
(Elphin grunting)

70
00:05:56,241 --> 00:05:57,658
Elphin, enough!

71
00:06:00,918 --> 00:06:03,751
(Elphin grunting)

72
00:06:07,424 --> 00:06:10,924
(uneasy music continues)

73
00:06:15,383 --> 00:06:18,291
(Elphin grunting)

74
00:06:18,291 --> 00:06:19,974
He, he has something.

75
00:06:22,494 --> 00:06:25,244
(Elphin panting)

76
00:06:27,141 --> 00:06:30,984
It's nothing, a drowned carcass.

77
00:06:32,824 --> 00:06:36,324
(uneasy music continues)

78
00:06:39,635 --> 00:06:42,385
(Elphin panting)

79
00:06:46,172 --> 00:06:49,005
(Elphin grunting)

80
00:06:55,478 --> 00:06:58,978
(uneasy music continues)

81
00:07:00,711 --> 00:07:03,461
(fire crackling)

82
00:07:10,928 --> 00:07:13,678
(Elphin panting)

83
00:07:18,586 --> 00:07:21,503
(Gwyddno grunting)

84
00:07:26,031 --> 00:07:28,134
Why so eager to share this bad luck?

85
00:07:31,780 --> 00:07:35,113
(uneasy ominous music)

86
00:07:44,397 --> 00:07:48,480
(uneasy ominous music continues)

87
00:07:57,403 --> 00:08:01,486
(uneasy ominous music continues)

88
00:08:03,650 --> 00:08:06,400
(knife clinking)

89
00:08:08,645 --> 00:08:12,728
(uneasy ominous music continues)

90
00:08:19,844 --> 00:08:22,927
(tense uneasy music)

91
00:08:24,861 --> 00:08:26,841
The scrawny thing's dead.

92
00:08:26,841 --> 00:08:29,931
Who'd be for throwing a babe like that in the river?

93
00:08:29,931 --> 00:08:31,431
The child is bewitched.

94
00:08:31,431 --> 00:08:33,131
Throw him back in and be done with it.

95
00:08:33,131 --> 00:08:33,964
(blade ringing)

96
00:08:33,964 --> 00:08:35,064
Don't touch him.

97
00:08:37,881 --> 00:08:40,074
The babe could be cursed, son.

98
00:08:42,351 --> 00:08:43,401
I'm already cursed.

99
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:49,107
(uneasy music)

100
00:08:58,465 --> 00:09:01,715
(gentle pensive music)

101
00:09:11,371 --> 00:09:15,454

(baby crying)

104
00:09:27,083 --> 00:09:28,500
By the goddess.

105
00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:32,220
(baby crying)

106
00:09:35,601 --> 00:09:36,434
Behold.

107
00:09:38,297 --> 00:09:40,524
Taliesin of the radiant brow.

108
00:09:46,842 --> 00:09:49,342
(baby crying)

109
00:09:55,101 --> 00:09:57,621
Never in Gwyddno's weir

110
00:09:57,621 --> 00:10:00,084
was there such good fortune as today.

111
00:10:04,881 --> 00:10:07,260
Small you are, Taliesin,

112
00:10:07,260 --> 00:10:11,741
and weak, yet there is virtue in your tongue.

113
00:10:14,284 --> 00:10:17,031
A bard, the boy will be.

114
00:10:17,031 --> 00:10:18,831
A maker with words like no other

115
00:10:18,831 --> 00:10:20,431
from the beginning of the world,

116
00:10:22,641 --> 00:10:27,144
and in his voice will be born a kingdom of summer.

117
00:10:31,122 --> 00:10:34,455
(gentle dramatic music)

118
00:10:36,488 --> 00:10:39,071
(baby whining)

119
00:10:40,971 --> 00:10:45,971
Henceforth, let no one say Elphin Ap Gwyddno is unlucky.

120
00:10:47,627 --> 00:10:50,377
(dramatic music)

121

(Charis speaking Atlantean)

190
00:17:31,860 --> 00:17:34,600
(ground rumbling)

191
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:37,368
(crowd gasping)

192
00:17:37,368 --> 00:17:41,451
(bull speaking Atlantean)

193
00:17:44,322 --> 00:17:47,072
(rain pattering)

194
00:17:49,247 --> 00:17:51,830
(somber music)

195
00:17:57,132 --> 00:18:00,049
(thunder rumbling)

196
00:18:09,191 --> 00:18:12,278
You there, fetch me your lord.

197
00:18:12,278 --> 00:18:13,402
And be quick with you.

198
00:18:13,402 --> 00:18:15,235
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.

199
00:18:17,354 --> 00:18:18,416
(knuckles rapping)

200
00:18:18,416 --> 00:18:20,249
Peace, Hagan, peace.

201
00:18:25,048 --> 00:18:27,111
What have you seen?

202
00:18:27,111 --> 00:18:27,961
They're coming.

203
00:18:36,923 --> 00:18:38,331
Picti?

204
00:18:38,331 --> 00:18:40,461
From today, we will no longer speak

205
00:18:40,461 --> 00:18:44,244
of Irish, Pict, or Saecsen, but of Barbarian.

206
00:18:46,041 --> 00:18:46,874
Unified?

207
00:18:47,811 --> 00:18:48,644
Mmm.

208
00:18:52,881 --> 00:18:54,631
I had hoped for a few more years.

209
00:18:57,771 --> 00:19:01,374
One season more or less, what difference?

210
00:19:02,511 --> 00:19:04,164
Take the day as it comes, o'King.

211
00:19:05,781 --> 00:19:07,314
Do you see victory for us?

212
00:19:08,241 --> 00:19:09,491
Better to ask your son.

213
00:19:10,911 --> 00:19:13,641
He sees these things much clearer than I.

214
00:19:13,641 --> 00:19:16,284
I have not seen Taliesin in three days.

215
00:19:19,623 --> 00:19:21,898
(somber music)

216
00:19:21,898 --> 00:19:24,891
Where is he when I need him?

217
00:19:24,891 --> 00:19:26,664
He'll be where he's needed most.

218
00:19:27,882 --> 00:19:30,632
(dramatic music)

219
00:19:34,641 --> 00:19:37,644
Earth Mother, behold your son.

220
00:19:38,751 --> 00:19:42,264
Sky Mother, recognize your devoted servant.

221
00:19:43,941 --> 00:19:48,941
Father of Wisdom, speak to me that I may hear your voice.

222
00:19:51,621 --> 00:19:53,874
Great Goddess, Queen of Life,

223
00:19:55,101 --> 00:19:57,981
reveal to me the vision of your sight.

224
00:19:59,453 --> 00:20:02,094
Speak-
A beautiful prayer.

225
00:20:04,491 --> 00:20:07,761
The gods of this place must be pleased.

226
00:20:07,761 --> 00:20:10,521
It is unwise to sneak up on a man while he prays.

227
00:20:10,521 --> 00:20:14,034
It is unwise to pray while a man sneaks up on you.

228
00:20:16,941 --> 00:20:19,261
You are old to have climbed this hill alone.

229
00:20:19,261 --> 00:20:22,014
You are young to have climbed it at all.

230
00:20:23,181 --> 00:20:25,023
You think me young to seek the gods?

231
00:20:25,023 --> 00:20:30,023
(chuckling) Few enough seek the gods, young or old.

232
00:20:33,081 --> 00:20:34,401
The chair on which you sit

233
00:20:34,401 --> 00:20:36,051
belongs to the head of our order,

234
00:20:36,951 --> 00:20:39,471
the Chief Druid of the Island of the Mighty.

235
00:20:39,471 --> 00:20:42,894
And are you a druid then, Taliesin Ap Elphin?

236
00:20:45,921 --> 00:20:46,914
You know me.

237
00:20:46,914 --> 00:20:51,264
(chuckling) All men know of the great Taliesin.

238
00:20:52,311 --> 00:20:55,974
They say you are the most powerful of your people.

239
00:20:58,821 --> 00:20:59,874
I am as you see me.

240
00:21:01,281 --> 00:21:03,561
Who are you?

241
00:21:03,561 --> 00:21:05,184
Curious, isn't it?

242
00:21:06,561 --> 00:21:09,702
Why did your order allow one

243
00:21:09,702 --> 00:21:13,560
of their sacred stones to fall?

244
00:21:16,581 --> 00:21:18,681
Must have fallen long ago.

245
00:21:18,681 --> 00:21:23,574
I wonder, will you be the man to raise it?

246
00:21:24,972 --> 00:21:27,639
(pensive music)

247
00:21:29,752 --> 00:21:33,457
(Taliesin grunting)

248
00:21:33,457 --> 00:21:36,419
(stone crumbling)

249
00:21:36,419 --> 00:21:39,419
(Taliesin grunting)

250
00:21:42,207 --> 00:21:45,704
(Taliesin panting)

251
00:21:45,704 --> 00:21:48,371
(hand thudding)

252
00:21:52,231 --> 00:21:53,803
(Taliesin grunting)

253
00:21:53,803 --> 00:21:56,886
(Taliesin screaming)

254
00:21:59,351 --> 00:22:02,351
(Taliesin grunting)

255
00:22:06,047 --> 00:22:07,725
(Taliesin panting)

256
00:22:07,725 --> 00:22:09,392
I see why it fell.

257
00:22:12,205 --> 00:22:15,171
(dramatic music)

258
00:22:15,171 --> 00:22:16,321
Forgive me, stranger.

259
00:22:17,631 --> 00:22:19,471
Do the dead forgive?

260
00:22:23,029 --> 00:22:24,711
It is very old.

261
00:22:24,711 --> 00:22:26,628
What of the markings?

262
00:22:28,451 --> 00:22:31,661
Cernunnos, The Horned Lord!

263
00:22:31,661 --> 00:22:33,788
One of your gods?

264
00:22:33,788 --> 00:22:37,397
No, much older.

265
00:22:37,397 --> 00:22:40,810
(dramatic ominous music)

266
00:22:40,810 --> 00:22:42,922
(Taliesin gasping)

267
00:22:42,922 --> 00:22:43,922
Ancient one.

268
00:22:49,079 --> 00:22:53,779
No, no. (panting)

269
00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:57,753
No.

270
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:02,077
(Taliesin panting)

271
00:23:04,095 --> 00:23:06,980
(man screaming)

272
00:23:06,980 --> 00:23:09,033
(flesh squelching)

273
00:23:09,033 --> 00:23:11,318
(ominous music)

274
00:23:11,318 --> 00:23:14,505
(Taliesin panting)

275
00:23:14,505 --> 00:23:17,422
(flesh squelching)

276
00:23:18,447 --> 00:23:21,364
(Taliesin panting)

277
00:23:23,016 --> 00:23:28,016
(Cernunnos speaking ancient Celtic)

278
00:23:28,266 --> 00:23:29,493
(water splashing)
(Taliesin gasping)

279
00:23:29,493 --> 00:23:31,144
Put it back!

280
00:23:31,144 --> 00:23:32,404
Put the stone back!

281
00:23:32,404 --> 00:23:36,111
No doubt I think this Cernunnos

282
00:23:36,111 --> 00:23:39,384
would prefer you left his stone upright.

283
00:23:41,391 --> 00:23:42,681
He would have me revive the old ways.

284
00:23:42,681 --> 00:23:46,524
Ah, and what do you think?

285
00:23:48,152 --> 00:23:50,811
Look upon me then, Shining Brow.

286
00:23:57,276 --> 00:23:58,914
(Taliesin panting)

287
00:23:58,914 --> 00:24:02,631
Have you nothing to say to me, Great Bard?

288
00:24:02,631 --> 00:24:06,513
No song to sing or wisdom to declare?

289
00:24:06,513 --> 00:24:07,371
(Taliesin screaming)

290
00:24:07,371 --> 00:24:09,411
On the day of your liberation,

291
00:24:09,411 --> 00:24:11,271
your tongue will be loosed

292
00:24:11,271 --> 00:24:14,273
and the words I give you will come.

293
00:24:14,273 --> 00:24:16,345
You will be my bard,

294
00:24:16,345 --> 00:24:20,211
proclaiming my reign in the world of men.

295
00:24:20,211 --> 00:24:22,430
Men will hear your voice

296
00:24:22,430 --> 00:24:25,430
and will know who it is that speaks.

297
00:24:26,415 --> 00:24:31,415
Taliesin.
Father. (panting)

298
00:24:35,064 --> 00:24:39,114
Who am I, father, that the gods should war for my soul?

299
00:24:40,131 --> 00:24:41,514
You are my son, boy,

300
00:24:42,591 --> 00:24:45,951
and the greatest bard in the history of your people.

301
00:24:45,951 --> 00:24:46,784
Nothing more?

302
00:24:47,691 --> 00:24:48,924
Is that not enough?

303
00:24:52,251 --> 00:24:53,084
Come now.

304
00:24:54,291 --> 00:24:56,304
Our enemies gather against us.

305
00:24:57,141 --> 00:24:58,018
I need you.

306
00:25:02,813 --> 00:25:06,680
(knife slashing)
(stone thudding)

307
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:09,263
(somber music)

308
00:25:16,396 --> 00:25:21,396
(warriors shouting)
(dramatic music)

309
00:25:23,262 --> 00:25:25,156
(swords clanking)

310
00:25:25,156 --> 00:25:28,156
(warriors grunting)

311
00:25:29,603 --> 00:25:32,777
(warrior screaming)

312
00:25:32,777 --> 00:25:36,027
(gentle pensive music)

313
00:25:38,613 --> 00:25:43,613
(ominous music)
(hooves clopping)

314
00:25:50,601 --> 00:25:51,864
Hail Maximus.

315
00:25:52,834 --> 00:25:54,081
I don't remember a Roman legion

316
00:25:54,081 --> 00:25:56,814
requiring the aid of a Celtic ala to avoid defeat.

317
00:25:58,431 --> 00:25:59,994
You have a short memory.

318
00:26:08,012 --> 00:26:10,429
I see you've met the enemy.

319
00:26:11,841 --> 00:26:13,371
Thank you for coming, Elphin,

320
00:26:13,371 --> 00:26:15,504
but I can't allow you to stay.

321
00:26:18,021 --> 00:26:19,971
The barbarian have overrun Luguvallium.

322
00:26:21,473 --> 00:26:22,548
By the goddess.

323
00:26:22,548 --> 00:26:23,784
The wall is fallen.

324
00:26:25,341 --> 00:26:26,991
Go home, friend.

325
00:26:26,991 --> 00:26:27,894
Defend your own.

326
00:26:31,791 --> 00:26:34,281
Both our people will stand a far better chance

327
00:26:34,281 --> 00:26:36,804
if we stand together.

328
00:26:37,821 --> 00:26:41,874
Besides we have my son to uphold us.

329
00:26:45,910 --> 00:26:47,511
Hail, Taliesin!

330
00:26:47,511 --> 00:26:49,371
I confess I should not like to miss the chance

331
00:26:49,371 --> 00:26:51,921
to fight under your blessing once more.

332
00:26:51,921 --> 00:26:53,114
Then you shall have it.

333
00:26:55,736 --> 00:26:57,036
Will you join me, Teacher?

334
00:27:00,984 --> 00:27:04,151
(soft dramatic music)

335
00:27:13,535 --> 00:27:17,535
(soft dramatic music continues)

336
00:27:21,801 --> 00:27:25,164
The Horned God, what did he offer you?

337
00:27:30,501 --> 00:27:34,734
Great power for a great price.

338
00:27:38,901 --> 00:27:41,751
Let us hope your refusal is not the doom of our people.

339
00:27:45,867 --> 00:27:49,071
(soft dramatic music continues)

340
00:27:49,071 --> 00:27:50,921
My acceptance surely would've been.

341
00:27:53,557 --> 00:27:56,890
(uneasy pensive music)

342
00:27:58,586 --> 00:28:03,003
(Taliesin speaking ancient Celtic)

343
00:28:04,921 --> 00:28:08,226
There is no other like him in all the empire.

344
00:28:08,226 --> 00:28:12,226
There is none other like him in all the world.

345
00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:15,952
(thunder booming)

346
00:28:16,872 --> 00:28:19,822
(Taliesin whispering ancient Celtic)

347
00:28:19,822 --> 00:28:24,822
(people shouting)
(swords clanking)

348
00:28:29,090 --> 00:28:33,173
(uneasy pensive music continues)

349
00:28:41,830 --> 00:28:43,741
(uneasy pensive music continues)

350
00:28:43,741 --> 00:28:46,791
(dramatic music)

351
00:28:46,791 --> 00:28:48,849
(thunder booming)

352
00:28:48,849 --> 00:28:50,867
(horse neighing)

353
00:28:50,867 --> 00:28:53,009
(warriors shouting)

354
00:28:53,009 --> 00:28:56,592
(dramatic music continues)

355
00:28:57,505 --> 00:29:00,338
(thunder booming)

356
00:29:02,488 --> 00:29:06,071
(dramatic music continues)

357
00:29:10,297 --> 00:29:15,297
(crickets chirping)
(birds singing)

358
00:29:16,972 --> 00:29:18,768
Who could it be?

359
00:29:18,768 --> 00:29:22,251
Saecsen? Irish?

360
00:29:22,251 --> 00:29:24,921
More likely a traveler stopping for rest and shade.

361
00:29:24,921 --> 00:29:27,381
I never thought we would find it occupied.

362
00:29:27,381 --> 00:29:29,841
One horse is hardly an occupation, Collen.

363
00:29:29,841 --> 00:29:32,331
Still, we should wait.

364
00:29:32,331 --> 00:29:33,431
Maybe they'll move on.

365
00:29:36,692 --> 00:29:38,091
What are you doing?

366
00:29:38,091 --> 00:29:40,454
We didn't come all this way to cower before the prize.

367
00:29:47,846 --> 00:29:50,596
(birds chirping)

368
00:29:57,824 --> 00:29:59,330
(uneasy music)

369
00:29:59,330 --> 00:30:02,636
(both gasping)

370
00:30:02,636 --> 00:30:04,491
(gentle music)

371
00:30:04,491 --> 00:30:05,541
Ave Maria.

372
00:30:10,011 --> 00:30:10,854
Goodness.

373
00:30:12,681 --> 00:30:14,661
Holy Mary, Mother of the Christ.

374
00:30:14,661 --> 00:30:15,774
Have mercy on us.

375
00:30:17,841 --> 00:30:19,851
What manner of men are you?

376
00:30:19,851 --> 00:30:22,074
Unworthy men, Lady.

377
00:30:23,841 --> 00:30:24,674
I see.

378
00:30:26,511 --> 00:30:27,801
Why have you come here?

379
00:30:27,801 --> 00:30:29,786
Seeking this holy place.

380
00:30:29,786 --> 00:30:34,674
And who is this Holy Mary of whom you speak?

381
00:30:38,121 --> 00:30:42,594
Why, the Mother of the Most High,

382
00:30:43,472 --> 00:30:46,314
Jesu the Christ, Savior of Mankind.

383
00:30:48,291 --> 00:30:49,741
You are not the Blessed Lady?

384
00:30:52,016 --> 00:30:54,166
There are those who would call me Savior,

385
00:30:55,131 --> 00:30:57,702
but I've never heard of this goddess Mary.

386
00:30:57,702 --> 00:30:59,301
Goddess?

387
00:30:59,301 --> 00:31:00,774
Forgive us, Lady.

388
00:31:02,331 --> 00:31:04,674
We worship no God but the True God,

389
00:31:05,511 --> 00:31:08,214
the God who was once worshiped in this very place.

390
00:31:10,101 --> 00:31:13,014
The True God worshiped here?

391
00:31:15,111 --> 00:31:16,971
That seems unlikely.

392
00:31:16,971 --> 00:31:18,834
Again, I beg your forgiveness.

393
00:31:19,671 --> 00:31:21,351
We have traveled all the way from Gaul

394
00:31:21,351 --> 00:31:23,931
to find and restore this place

395
00:31:23,931 --> 00:31:26,001
in order that the truth of our God

396
00:31:26,001 --> 00:31:28,731
might be proclaimed once more hereabouts.

397
00:31:28,731 --> 00:31:30,384
You speak often of truth.

398
00:31:31,671 --> 00:31:34,281
Is this God of yours so interested in truth?

399
00:31:34,281 --> 00:31:39,084
In truth, yes, but also in love.

400
00:31:41,421 --> 00:31:42,561
I see.

401
00:31:42,561 --> 00:31:43,644
A strange God then,

402
00:31:44,571 --> 00:31:46,281
and often disappointed, I should think.

403
00:31:46,281 --> 00:31:47,364
This is blasphemy.

404
00:31:48,201 --> 00:31:51,744
My companion studied under Brother Martin in Tours.

405
00:31:53,001 --> 00:31:56,691
He is zealous, but perhaps less open-minded

406
00:31:56,691 --> 00:31:58,614
than the situation calls for.

407
00:32:00,951 --> 00:32:01,854
He's honest.

408
00:32:03,921 --> 00:32:05,121
If you wish to restore this place,

409
00:32:05,121 --> 00:32:07,421
you will need the permission of King Avallach.

410
00:32:09,081 --> 00:32:09,914
Faery!

411
00:32:13,281 --> 00:32:16,081
You are of the Faer Folk, who dwell in the Glass Isle?

412
00:32:17,841 --> 00:32:20,961
The people here tell many strange tales about you.

413
00:32:20,961 --> 00:32:23,261
Have you heard we change our shapes at will?

414
00:32:24,711 --> 00:32:27,261
Have you heard we never sleep or rest

415
00:32:27,261 --> 00:32:29,421
and we have but to bid and the winds bring us news

416
00:32:29,421 --> 00:32:30,984
from any corner of our realm?

417
00:32:32,491 --> 00:32:35,691
And more.

418
00:32:35,691 --> 00:32:37,254
What do you believe, Priest?

419
00:32:40,041 --> 00:32:42,674
We will believe whatever the Holy God reveals to us.

420
00:32:47,001 --> 00:32:50,904
I trusted a God once, long ago.

421
00:32:53,781 --> 00:32:54,614
What happened?

422
00:32:58,753 --> 00:33:01,191
(dramatic music)

423
00:33:01,191 --> 00:33:02,024
I killed him.

424
00:33:05,513 --> 00:33:09,096
(dramatic music continues)

425
00:33:12,643 --> 00:33:16,310
(dramatic music continues)

426
00:33:23,421 --> 00:33:25,218
I've never seen anything like it.

427
00:33:25,218 --> 00:33:29,064
Not in Rome or Athens or Constantinople itself.

428
00:33:30,441 --> 00:33:32,364
Truly, these are the Faery!

429
00:33:34,041 --> 00:33:37,824
Hey, brother, they're mortals like as we.

430
00:33:39,891 --> 00:33:41,034
Mortals, perhaps.

431
00:33:42,934 --> 00:33:44,434
But never like us.

432
00:33:46,203 --> 00:33:49,870
(dramatic music continues)

433
00:33:56,905 --> 00:34:00,313
(dramatic music continues)

434
00:34:00,313 --> 00:34:03,063
(doors thudding)

435
00:34:06,525 --> 00:34:09,358
(hooves clopping)

436
00:34:13,385 --> 00:34:17,718
(Morgian speaking Atlantean)

437
00:34:23,368 --> 00:34:27,849
(Charis speaking Atlantean)

438
00:34:27,849 --> 00:34:29,666
(horse neighing)

439
00:34:29,666 --> 00:34:32,343
(Morgian speaking Atlantean)

440
00:34:32,343 --> 00:34:35,811
(Charis speaking Atlantean)

441
00:34:35,811 --> 00:34:37,881
What strange men are you?

442
00:34:37,881 --> 00:34:39,204
Priests, my lady.

443
00:34:41,781 --> 00:34:43,131
Are they with the others?

444
00:34:46,401 --> 00:34:49,071
Your father has given audience to a large group

445
00:34:49,071 --> 00:34:50,751
of strangely dressed Britons.

446
00:34:50,751 --> 00:34:52,491
Our father, Morgian.

447
00:34:52,491 --> 00:34:54,584
He asks that you join him on your return.

448
00:34:58,461 --> 00:35:00,144
My presence was not requested.

449
00:35:01,456 --> 00:35:03,738
(uneasy music)

450
00:35:03,738 --> 00:35:06,488
(horse grunting)

451
00:35:09,421 --> 00:35:12,474
(doors thudding)

452
00:35:12,474 --> 00:35:13,761
Do you think these painted men

453
00:35:13,761 --> 00:35:15,564
will strike this far south?

454
00:35:19,487 --> 00:35:20,958
In time.

455
00:35:20,958 --> 00:35:24,771
Although, in Dyfed, we heard the emperor

456
00:35:24,771 --> 00:35:27,531
was withdrawing two legions from Gaul

457
00:35:27,531 --> 00:35:29,424
and sending troops back to the wall.

458
00:35:30,801 --> 00:35:31,944
Here she is.

459
00:35:33,051 --> 00:35:37,161
King Elphin Ap Gwyddno, I present to you my daughter,

460
00:35:37,161 --> 00:35:41,544
the Princess Charis, Savior of our People.

461
00:35:42,915 --> 00:35:45,915
(soft uneasy music)

462
00:35:53,751 --> 00:35:54,954
Princess Charis.

463
00:35:56,181 --> 00:35:57,591
Your father was just telling us

464
00:35:57,591 --> 00:36:00,054
how you delivered your people from calamity.

465
00:36:02,161 --> 00:36:03,201
It is the way of fathers

466
00:36:03,201 --> 00:36:05,801
to exaggerate the accomplishments of their children.

467
00:36:07,791 --> 00:36:08,841
Never say it.

468
00:36:08,841 --> 00:36:12,951
Not an Atlantean draws breath who doesn't owe their life

469
00:36:12,951 --> 00:36:14,004
to my daughter.

470
00:36:16,311 --> 00:36:19,404
My people know something of loss as well.

471
00:36:22,491 --> 00:36:24,594
We too are strangers in these lands.

472
00:36:25,551 --> 00:36:29,661
Travelers are always welcome within these walls.

473
00:36:29,661 --> 00:36:31,764
Please stay with us if you can.

474
00:36:32,961 --> 00:36:37,374
Allow me to share the bounty of my table this evening.

475
00:36:42,261 --> 00:36:45,564
Your offer is most generous.

476
00:36:48,201 --> 00:36:53,201
Please accept this token as a sign of our gratitude.

477
00:36:54,814 --> 00:36:57,981
(gentle uneasy music)

478
00:37:06,321 --> 00:37:08,056
You honor me, Lord Elphin.

479
00:37:08,056 --> 00:37:12,056
(gentle uneasy music continues)

480
00:37:21,240 --> 00:37:24,157
(people murmuring)

481
00:37:27,373 --> 00:37:31,275
(Charis speaking Atlantean)

482
00:37:31,275 --> 00:37:35,692
(Avallach speaking Atlantean)

483
00:37:41,508 --> 00:37:42,341
Mmm.

484
00:37:49,101 --> 00:37:51,351
I gather his people have been driven

485
00:37:51,351 --> 00:37:53,751
from their homeland in the North?

486
00:37:53,751 --> 00:37:55,041
Driven?

487
00:37:55,041 --> 00:38:00,041
By war, war which will soon visit us in the South.

488
00:38:00,141 --> 00:38:03,804
If it is as bad as they declare.

489
00:38:04,671 --> 00:38:05,921
You don't believe them?

490
00:38:07,131 --> 00:38:11,814
Desperate men can never be trusted.

491
00:38:16,641 --> 00:38:17,844
Can they be trusted?

492
00:38:19,251 --> 00:38:21,051
Powerful men can never be trusted.

493
00:38:22,401 --> 00:38:23,394
What say you, son?

494
00:38:24,711 --> 00:38:25,544
Taliesin.

495
00:38:27,801 --> 00:38:28,634
Sorry, Father.

496
00:38:30,021 --> 00:38:31,421
I need you in the present,

497
00:38:32,545 --> 00:38:34,295
not lost in the past.

498
00:38:36,534 --> 00:38:38,511
King Avallach has shown kindness

499
00:38:38,511 --> 00:38:40,061
when kindness was not required.

500
00:38:45,021 --> 00:38:45,854
And yet?

501
00:38:48,021 --> 00:38:50,068
I sense danger in this place.

502
00:38:50,068 --> 00:38:53,451
(uneasy music)

503
00:38:53,451 --> 00:38:54,501
You must be wary.

504
00:38:57,792 --> 00:39:01,209
(uneasy music continues)

505
00:39:09,491 --> 00:39:11,300
(Morgian speaking Atlantean)

506
00:39:11,300 --> 00:39:15,430
(Annubi speaking Atlantean)

507
00:39:15,430 --> 00:39:16,843
(Morgian scoffing)

508
00:39:16,843 --> 00:39:21,176
(Morgian speaking Atlantean)

509
00:39:23,817 --> 00:39:28,067
(Annubi speaking Atlantean)

510
00:39:31,551 --> 00:39:34,968
(uneasy music continues)

511
00:39:42,936 --> 00:39:47,269
(Morgian speaking Atlantean)

512
00:39:52,272 --> 00:39:55,280
(uneasy music continues)

513
00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:59,530
(Annubi speaking Atlantean)

514
00:40:01,419 --> 00:40:04,836
(uneasy music continues)

515
00:40:07,729 --> 00:40:11,037
(doors thudding)

516
00:40:11,037 --> 00:40:14,204
(gentle string music)

517
00:40:15,928 --> 00:40:18,678
(food crunching)

518
00:40:22,242 --> 00:40:24,992
(food crunching)

519
00:40:29,591 --> 00:40:33,591
(gentle string music continues)

520
00:40:40,882 --> 00:40:45,332
Mmm. (sighing)

521
00:40:46,553 --> 00:40:48,381
Are you unwell, King Avallach?

522
00:40:48,381 --> 00:40:50,664
An old wound, and deep.

523
00:40:51,591 --> 00:40:52,494
Pay me no heed.

524
00:40:53,963 --> 00:40:57,963
(gentle string music continues)

525
00:40:59,564 --> 00:41:00,771
It is fortunate your people were able

526
00:41:00,771 --> 00:41:02,784
to escape the troubles in the North, King Elphin.

527
00:41:02,784 --> 00:41:03,617
Mm.

528
00:41:04,729 --> 00:41:07,314
The luck of Elphin Ap Gwyddno is legendary.

529
00:41:09,291 --> 00:41:10,701
Among our people,

530
00:41:10,701 --> 00:41:12,501
when breaking bread with new friends,

531
00:41:12,501 --> 00:41:14,274
it's customary to have a song.

532
00:41:15,711 --> 00:41:18,411
Alas, our best minstrels lie dead

533
00:41:18,411 --> 00:41:20,541
at the bottom of the great sea.

534
00:41:20,541 --> 00:41:21,374
Indeed.

535
00:41:22,281 --> 00:41:25,104
We have all seen our homes lost and kinsmen killed.

536
00:41:26,211 --> 00:41:30,891
And yet, our people escaped not only with our lives,

537
00:41:30,891 --> 00:41:32,540
but with our greatest treasure.

538
00:41:32,540 --> 00:41:33,712
(fist thudding)

539
00:41:33,712 --> 00:41:36,291
Hafgan speaks truth.

540
00:41:36,291 --> 00:41:38,604
The treasure is my son, Taliesin,

541
00:41:39,741 --> 00:41:42,444
a bard of extraordinary talent.

542
00:41:44,001 --> 00:41:45,264
Is this true?

543
00:41:46,740 --> 00:41:48,490
Taliesin, Taliesin.

544
00:41:50,991 --> 00:41:52,134
Is this true?

545
00:41:56,031 --> 00:41:56,961
It is the way of fathers

546
00:41:56,961 --> 00:41:59,534
to exaggerate the accomplishments of their children.

547
00:42:00,771 --> 00:42:02,964
False modesty is unbecoming, Taliesin.

548
00:42:04,221 --> 00:42:06,308
King Avallach has shared his bounty with us.

549
00:42:06,308 --> 00:42:08,064
Let us share ours with him.

550
00:42:18,129 --> 00:42:20,430
(chair thudding)

551
00:42:20,430 --> 00:42:23,180
(fists pounding)

552
00:42:32,218 --> 00:42:34,968
(fists pounding)

553
00:42:40,890 --> 00:42:43,640
(fists pounding)

554
00:42:45,190 --> 00:42:47,940
(fire crackling)

555
00:42:55,881 --> 00:42:59,184
Hear, then, if you will, the Lament of Pwyll,

556
00:43:00,141 --> 00:43:01,284
Prince of Annwifn.

557
00:43:05,854 --> 00:43:07,491
(gentle string music)

558
00:43:07,491 --> 00:43:09,171
In the days when the dew of creation

559
00:43:09,171 --> 00:43:11,571
was still fresh upon the earth,

560
00:43:11,571 --> 00:43:14,364
Pwyll was lord over the seven catrefs of Dyfed.

561
00:43:15,711 --> 00:43:19,671
Seven of Gwynedd, and seven of Lloegr as well.

562
00:43:19,671 --> 00:43:22,794
In Caer Narberth, his principal stronghold,

563
00:43:23,691 --> 00:43:26,661
he awakened one morning to look upon the hills,

564
00:43:26,661 --> 00:43:28,164
abounding with game.

565
00:43:29,901 --> 00:43:30,951
A thought came to him

566
00:43:31,828 --> 00:43:33,978
and he assembled his men to go out hunting.

567
00:43:37,101 --> 00:43:39,123
And this is the way of it.

568
00:43:39,123 --> 00:43:43,123

Princess Charis?

The Savior of her People is not here, stranger.

00:50:40,285 --> 00:50:43,035
(horse neighing)

634
00:50:48,831 --> 00:50:50,031
The foal is in breech?

635
00:50:51,531 --> 00:50:53,281
I'm not strong enough to turn it.

636
00:51:03,146 --> 00:51:05,896

The fourth emanation.

640
00:51:35,558 --> 00:51:38,391
I know the price of the power you display.

641
00:51:38,391 --> 00:51:40,241
I've never spilled blood for power.

642
00:51:42,226 --> 00:51:43,699
Perhaps that's why I failed.

643
00:51:43,699 --> 00:51:44,532
Failed?

644
00:51:52,244 --> 00:51:54,994
(horse neighing)

645
00:52:01,895 --> 00:52:06,728

(horse neighing)

648
00:52:25,236 --> 00:52:26,069
Shh.

649
00:52:32,311 --> 00:52:36,567
(horse grunting and neighing)

650
00:52:36,567 --> 00:52:37,400
Shh.

651
00:52:46,034 --> 00:52:50,601
(Taliesin speaking in ancient Celtic)

652
00:52:50,601 --> 00:52:52,184
The foal is turned.

653
00:52:54,683 --> 00:52:55,683
All be well.

654
00:52:59,181 --> 00:53:00,181
Thank you.

655
00:53:05,612 --> 00:53:08,695
(dark pensive music)

656
00:53:15,173 --> 00:53:16,821
Forgive me.

657
00:53:16,821 --> 00:53:18,204
I seek the Princess Charis.

658
00:53:21,051 --> 00:53:22,151
Did she come this way?

659
00:53:24,741 --> 00:53:26,927
She took her grey and rode out.

660
00:53:26,927 --> 00:53:29,510
(uneasy music)

661
00:53:31,011 --> 00:53:33,984
She often bathes below the Tor at night,

662
00:53:36,591 --> 00:53:38,484
when there are fewer prying eyes.

663
00:53:40,371 --> 00:53:41,581
Thank you,

664
00:53:43,061 --> 00:53:43,894
friend.

665
00:53:46,302 --> 00:53:48,885
(solemn music)

666
00:53:58,127 --> 00:54:01,544
(solemn music continues)

667
00:54:10,436 --> 00:54:13,436
(crickets chirping)

668
00:54:19,485 --> 00:54:21,985
(owl hooting)

669

(Charis gasping)

672
00:54:46,040 --> 00:54:48,061
(water splashing)

673
00:54:48,061 --> 00:54:50,811
(Charis gasping)

674
00:54:55,761 --> 00:54:59,361
I beg your pardon, princess. I didn't mean to startle you.

675
00:54:59,361 --> 00:55:01,281
Is it customary in the north to spy on a woman

676
00:55:01,281 --> 00:55:02,244
while she bathes?

677
00:55:04,821 --> 00:55:05,691
Never, lady.

678
00:55:05,691 --> 00:55:06,891
Then what do you here?

679
00:55:09,531 --> 00:55:10,631
I needed to see you.

680
00:55:15,253 --> 00:55:18,003
Have you not seen enough of me?

681
00:55:20,151 --> 00:55:22,131
It wasn't my intention to intrude into your thoughts.

682
00:55:22,131 --> 00:55:23,904
You intruded into my soul.

683
00:55:26,541 --> 00:55:28,334
I know what the bull-god offered you.

684
00:55:32,137 --> 00:55:34,637
Cernunnos offered me the same.

685
00:55:36,414 --> 00:55:37,247
And?

686
00:55:39,141 --> 00:55:40,791
I made the same choice you did.

687
00:55:42,067 --> 00:55:45,234
(gentle somber music)

688
00:55:47,031 --> 00:55:48,054
Then damn us both.

689
00:55:51,111 --> 00:55:51,944
Aye.

690
00:55:55,251 --> 00:55:57,681
I do not find myself in need of company.

691
00:55:57,681 --> 00:55:59,484
Less so the company of a savage.

692
00:56:00,981 --> 00:56:03,504
Well, you think of us as savages, aye?

693
00:56:04,941 --> 00:56:09,041
And we think of you as otherworldly.

694
00:56:09,041 --> 00:56:11,624
(gentle music)

695
00:56:12,651 --> 00:56:15,834
Perhaps, we're both just people.

696
00:56:19,417 --> 00:56:21,601
I am not just anything, singer.

697
00:56:25,027 --> 00:56:30,027
(gentle dramatic music)
(water sloshing)

698
00:56:36,717 --> 00:56:39,550
(Morgian sobbing)

699
00:56:41,841 --> 00:56:45,231
How dare you enter my chamber without leave!

700
00:56:45,231 --> 00:56:46,701
You have no right!

701
00:56:46,701 --> 00:56:48,713
It shows me more than it ever showed you!

702
00:56:48,713 --> 00:56:51,471
(slaps) Never from curiosity.

703
00:56:51,471 --> 00:56:53,424
How many times have I told you?

704
00:56:54,337 --> 00:56:57,352
You were ever weak.

705
00:56:57,352 --> 00:57:02,151
And you were ever a fool. Just like your sister.

706
00:57:02,151 --> 00:57:04,461
Oh yes, she had the sight, too.

707
00:57:04,461 --> 00:57:08,181
And what did she do with it? Savior of our People?

708
00:57:08,181 --> 00:57:11,181
A thousand thousand of our kinsmen swallowed by the sea,

709
00:57:11,181 --> 00:57:13,418
and this savage crag is our

710
00:57:13,418 --> 00:57:17,644
salvation?
(Morgan gasps)

711
00:57:17,644 --> 00:57:21,921
True power is killing what you love, little girl,

712
00:57:21,921 --> 00:57:23,514
not letting it kill you.

713
00:57:24,891 --> 00:57:29,654
I do not love the bard. It's only his power I desire.

714
00:57:33,561 --> 00:57:35,154
As I desired yours.

715
00:57:38,631 --> 00:57:43,631
And now you have none left to give.

716
00:57:44,071 --> 00:57:46,654
(somber music)

717
00:57:55,354 --> 00:57:58,771
(somber music continues)

718
00:58:03,464 --> 00:58:06,214
(birds chirping)

719
00:58:08,241 --> 00:58:09,174
Princess Charis.

720
00:58:12,621 --> 00:58:14,151
Prince Taliesin.

721
00:58:14,151 --> 00:58:16,581
Alas, only Taliesin.

722
00:58:16,581 --> 00:58:19,461
Hereditary titles are not known among the Cymry,

723
00:58:19,461 --> 00:58:20,394
savage as we are.

724
00:58:21,231 --> 00:58:22,611
Never say it!

725
00:58:22,611 --> 00:58:26,124
Your people are as noble as any I have encountered.

726
00:58:27,141 --> 00:58:29,841
King Avallach. Lady of the Lake.

727
00:58:37,431 --> 00:58:39,131
I've never met another like him.

728
00:58:40,731 --> 00:58:42,261
He's proud enough.

729
00:58:42,261 --> 00:58:47,151
When he sings, I forget the pain of our loss.

730
00:58:47,151 --> 00:58:50,151
Even my old wound grieves me less.

731
00:58:50,151 --> 00:58:51,901
His song brings no comfort to me.

732
00:58:53,271 --> 00:58:54,104
Truly?

733
00:58:56,181 --> 00:59:00,421
I plan to gift them the lands north of the Tor

734
00:59:02,001 --> 00:59:03,151
if they will have them.

735
00:59:04,431 --> 00:59:05,881
You would settle them here?

736
00:59:06,831 --> 00:59:10,794
Their need is dire, and it's not a tenth of my holdings.

737
00:59:12,201 --> 00:59:13,074
You object?

738
00:59:16,071 --> 00:59:18,404
Why should I care where the singer lays his head?

739
00:59:27,607 --> 00:59:32,607
(people murmuring)
(birds chirping)

740
00:59:40,041 --> 00:59:40,874
Charis!

741
00:59:46,311 --> 00:59:47,144
Wait!

742
00:59:52,071 --> 00:59:53,621
I thought to find you barefoot.

743
00:59:55,731 --> 00:59:58,194
Your boots, you left them at the lake.

744
00:59:59,631 --> 01:00:02,001
A true prince would have returned them.

745
01:00:02,001 --> 01:00:03,501
As I've said, I'm no prince.

746
01:00:04,761 --> 01:00:09,144
But I'll redeem myself, if you will allow me.

747
01:00:14,124 --> 01:00:16,374
They are yours, are they not?

748
01:00:18,906 --> 01:00:19,823
They are.

749
01:00:21,706 --> 01:00:24,289
(gentle music)

750
01:00:32,977 --> 01:00:36,394
(gentle music continues)

751
01:00:41,744 --> 01:00:43,914
Neither pain nor pleasure, evermore.

752
01:00:48,085 --> 01:00:51,954
I thought that was all life held for me after our loss.

753
01:00:51,954 --> 01:00:55,371
(gentle music continues)

754
01:01:04,456 --> 01:01:07,873
(gentle music continues)

755
01:01:14,447 --> 01:01:17,864
(gentle music continues)

756
01:01:25,231 --> 01:01:28,131
2,000 of us arrived on these shores after the cataclysm.

757
01:01:29,451 --> 01:01:30,744
Only 1,000 remain.

758
01:01:32,391 --> 01:01:33,391
And yet, you live.

759
01:01:34,281 --> 01:01:35,114
And while there is life in you,

760
01:01:35,114 --> 01:01:36,561
there is hope for your people.

761
01:01:38,031 --> 01:01:38,864
You are young-

762
01:01:39,921 --> 01:01:41,274
To your eyes, perhaps.

763
01:01:42,141 --> 01:01:44,691
My people carry our years more lightly than others.

764
01:01:46,161 --> 01:01:48,211
This place need not be a grave, Charis.

765
01:01:50,661 --> 01:01:52,491
I like to believe something great and tragic

766
01:01:52,491 --> 01:01:53,784
occurred in this place.

767
01:01:55,341 --> 01:01:56,424
Sometime long ago.

768
01:01:58,731 --> 01:02:01,181
Do not tell me otherwise, bard. Even if you know.

769
01:02:04,014 --> 01:02:07,468
All the world is made up of events both great and tragic.

770
01:02:08,841 --> 01:02:11,334
Some are observed and remembered, others-

771
01:02:15,111 --> 01:02:16,111
There was a woman.

772
01:02:19,071 --> 01:02:20,521
She came from across the sea.

773
01:02:23,031 --> 01:02:24,861
Her life was hard, for the land was harsh.

774
01:02:24,861 --> 01:02:27,794
And she could not help remembering all she had left behind.

775
01:02:28,911 --> 01:02:30,561
She longed to return to her home.

776
01:02:35,781 --> 01:02:36,831
What became of her?

777
01:02:38,361 --> 01:02:39,384
She grew lonely.

778
01:02:42,351 --> 01:02:43,184
And died.

779
01:02:44,091 --> 01:02:46,674
(somber music)

780
01:02:53,361 --> 01:02:55,208
Was there no man to love her?

781
01:02:59,391 --> 01:03:01,611
Once there was a man whose song captured her heart

782
01:03:01,611 --> 01:03:04,411
as easily as a fowler catching a bird in a silken snare.

783
01:03:06,981 --> 01:03:10,169
But they were from different worlds, and it could not be.

784
01:03:10,169 --> 01:03:13,586
(somber music continues)

785
01:03:21,788 --> 01:03:22,955
Why is this?

786
01:03:28,511 --> 01:03:31,594
(tense somber music)

787
01:03:35,151 --> 01:03:37,578
Neither pain nor pleasure, evermore.

788
01:03:40,126 --> 01:03:43,459
(dramatic somber music)

789
01:03:50,378 --> 01:03:52,744
Charis! Charis!

790
01:03:52,744 --> 01:03:53,994
Haw!

791
01:03:55,064 --> 01:03:58,568
(dramatic somber music continues)

792
01:03:58,568 --> 01:04:01,401
(Morgian sobbing)

793
01:04:05,657 --> 01:04:09,824
(dramatic somber music continues)

794
01:04:14,862 --> 01:04:17,695
(Morgian sobbing)

795
01:04:20,767 --> 01:04:23,850
(dark ominous music)

796
01:04:29,921 --> 01:04:33,254
(dramatic solemn music)

797
01:04:42,429 --> 01:04:45,012
(uneasy music)

798
01:04:49,949 --> 01:04:52,949
(dark uneasy music)

799
01:05:02,308 --> 01:05:06,141
(dark uneasy music continues)

800
01:05:15,406 --> 01:05:19,239
(dark uneasy music continues)

801
01:05:26,220 --> 01:05:28,887
(air swooshing)

802
01:05:31,699 --> 01:05:34,606
Look upon me then shinning brow.

803
01:05:34,606 --> 01:05:37,689
(Taliesin screaming)

804
01:05:45,032 --> 01:05:47,237
(horse neighing)

805
01:05:47,237 --> 01:05:48,152
(crow cawing)

806
01:05:48,152 --> 01:05:50,902
(horse grunting)

807
01:05:59,106 --> 01:06:01,856
(horse neighing)

808
01:06:07,624 --> 01:06:10,374
(knife slashing)

809
01:06:11,471 --> 01:06:13,941
All this is an illusion,

810
01:06:13,941 --> 01:06:16,153
an echo of a voice that has died.

811
01:06:16,153 --> 01:06:19,070
(people screaming)

812
01:06:20,541 --> 01:06:22,180
And soon that echo will cease.

813
01:06:22,180 --> 01:06:24,709
Death before slavery!

814
01:06:24,709 --> 01:06:26,871
(tense music)

815
01:06:26,871 --> 01:06:28,761
Men are weak, Taliesin,

816
01:06:28,761 --> 01:06:31,371
unwilling to pay the price for better world.

817
01:06:31,371 --> 01:06:34,341
There is a new power at work in the world. I've seen it.

818
01:06:34,341 --> 01:06:37,251
I've seen a lamb shining with goodness.

819
01:06:37,251 --> 01:06:38,781
It's the kingdom of summer.

820
01:06:38,781 --> 01:06:41,001
Where you came from no man knows.

821
01:06:41,001 --> 01:06:43,971
Where you are going no man can say.

822
01:06:43,971 --> 01:06:45,141
I'll not be separated from you.

823
01:06:45,141 --> 01:06:50,141
I will not give my daughter to a barbarian.

824
01:06:50,547 --> 01:06:53,464
(swords swooshing)

825
01:06:54,321 --> 01:06:55,906
Marry me, Charis.

826
01:06:55,906 --> 01:06:58,656
(dramatic music)

827
01:07:03,071 --> 01:07:06,154
(dark pensive music)

828
01:07:15,468 --> 01:07:19,385
(dark pensive music continues)

829
01:07:28,358 --> 01:07:32,275
(dark pensive music continues)

830
01:07:41,378 --> 01:07:45,295
(dark pensive music continues)

831
01:07:54,458 --> 01:07:58,375
(dark pensive music continues)

832
01:08:07,434 --> 01:08:11,351
(dark pensive music continues)

833
01:08:13,282 --> 01:08:16,449
(dark dramatic music)

834
01:08:25,450 --> 01:08:29,450
(dark dramatic music continues)
