All language subtitles for The Outpost 4x09 - The Price of Immortality (English)

Previously on "The Outpost"...

They're not gods, and my kinj
makes me immune to their powers.

You don't have one, so stay out of it.

Get that key to Janzo and destroy it!

- It's the key to the Skevikor.
- It's the key.

It's talking.

Are you sure you're writing
down everything it's saying?

Those are the names of the Seven.

Until you bring yourselves to us,

we will torture her.

Go, go!

- Tobin!
- Run!

It is your turn to
return to the fold, Golu.

Don't you move. What are you doing here?

What is that? Is that your blood?

I need to get to Gallwood Outpost.

If you lend me a horse,
I'll make sure it's returned.

Gallwood Outpost?

You're the Blackblood we heard about.

We know what you did for
the Realm against Yavalla.

We'll give you whatever you need.

- Thank you.
- But you're badly hurt.

- I heal quickly.
- Wait here.

This is the price of immortality.

That's enough, Janya.

You must keep a reserve
to wake the Kahvi.

Destroy their dwellings
so they do not repopulate.

Life in this world has increased
since our first arrival.

It will feed us well
for a long time to come.

Talon?

Oh! Sorry.

Are you all right?

- Tobin saved me.
- Well, where is he?

Where is he, Talon?

They killed him for his kinj.

Resurrected another one of them.

So that means there's five of them now.

You and I have the only two kinjes left.

- They're coming for yours next.
- Yeah, I know.

They're slaughtering people now.

On the way here, I saw
them burn an entire village.

My kinj protected me.

Then we need to hide you.

Both of you. Can they
sense where you are?

- Where your kinjes are?
- I don't think so.

They didn't seem to
see me at the village.

All right, we might
still have time then.

- Time for what?
- I don't know. Devise a plan.

Just let me get cleaned up.

To Tobin.

He could've gotten out of
there whenever he wanted,

but he stayed to save me.

He's a cocky son of a bitch,

but he's a good man and a good
king with too short a reign.

Speaking of reigns, who
rules our people now?

I mean, in a preposterously
short amount of time,

we've lost two queens and a king.

Who's in charge now?

Tobin left Garret in charge.

Why change things?

Because when people find out he's dead,

they'll have no reason to follow me.

Agreed.

They'll be more political
chaos and competing factions

against humans and among Blackbloods.

It's the last thing we need right now.

Then the people can't find
out that Tobin is dead.

What?

How many people know that
Tobin has been killed?

The four of us and those
monsters out there, right?

So why do the rest of the
people need to know right away?

Because the people
deserve to know the truth.

Their king and queen have been slain.

The best thing for them, for all of
us right now, is to maintain order.

Focus our energy on
defeating our real enemy,

not fighting amongst ourselves.

Zed's right. We deal with
the so-called gods first.

- Then we tell the people.
- Talon.

We tell no one of Tobin's death.

Garret remains commander
for now, agreed?

- Agreed.
- I don't like it.

How long before those
things are at the gate?

I don't know, but not long.

Talon, you're back!

Ah, I knew His Majesty wouldn't fail.

What is it?

What are we all so sad about?

Where's King Tobin?

He's away tracking the enemy,
Munt, like the hero that he is.

Aye. What a king, eh?

Yeah. Yeah.

Going to prepare him
something nice just for him.

He'll like that.

Thank you.

I know. I couldn't believe it either.

Now Garret insisted that
he be kept behind bars.

I think it's a little over-cautious.

Some might say even a little bigoted,

but he seems not to mind.

Well, who are you talking about?

Talon...

meet 3-1-3.

He's one of them, Janzo.
One of those so-called gods.

No. I mean, well, yes, that's
everyone's first reaction.

- He looks just like them.
- You have seen the Masters?

Masters?

That's what he calls the Seven.

Talon, he's no threat. I promise.

We found him underneath the
Outpost beneath the Skevikor room.

We believe there are
thousands more like him.

Thousands?

I thought there were
only seven to be woken

by the seven kinjes.

Seven Masters.

Thousands of Kahvi.

Slaves.

Why are you here?

Because the man called
Garret put me in here.

No, I mean your people.

The Kahvi.

Why are the Kahvi here?

We are meant to wake at the
opening by the hand of the Masters.

Our only purpose is to serve the Masters

who will use you all as fuel.

Fuel?

Sure, Janzo, no threat at all.

Talon.

We believe his people were brought here

from the Plane of Ashes.

How long ago, I have no idea.

Oh, and he's desperate
for his Naviaspore.

I need my Naviaspore.

And what's a Naviaspore?

From what I can tell,

it's what he calls the gold kinj,

the kind Yavalla had.

Vorta, she had hundreds, maybe thousands

of glowing gold things
in her arm and hand.

She did?

That explains the tubes.

- Tubes?
- Come with me.

Tubes.

You see these tubes that run
from the handprints of the altar?

There was a singular tube
exactly the same as these

connected in the back of 3-1-3's
neck when he was in the pod.

Figured it was a way to deliver
something into the Kahvi.

I thought it might be some
sort of life-giving substance,

but what if all these tubes

are used to deliver those gold
kinjes that you saw in Vorta

to the entire Kahvi population?

To control them?

Exactly.

To enslave them.

There are seven handprints.

Do you think it requires
all seven of them to work?

I'd assume so.

Aster's love for the
creatures of this world

has blinded him to our purpose.

Talon?

No, it had to be Aster.

One of the Seven. It was like I was
seeing his memories from ages ago.

Aster. Asterkinj.

Ah, of course. Your kinj is his soul.

My flashes were no doubt from
my kinj's original owner as well.

That does follow our
theory that each kinj

must hold the essence
of one of the Seven.

Mm-hmm.

Their memories must be
intact in your kinjes.

When you touched the Skevikor altar,

well, it must've triggered them somehow.

Yeah, but what do the memories tell us?

I don't know. They seemed random.

I mean, my was just standing in the
Skevikor room with the other Masters.

Well, mine was weirder.

The creature was using my kinj

to make some human
woman kill her own baby,

and then one of the
other Masters stopped it.

- And was it Aster?
- No idea. It was just flashes.

I'm not sure if I'd
know it was him anyway.

When Vorta had me captive,

she kept saying Aster was the Betrayer.

If it was Aster who saved
the human baby, well,

those monsters might
consider that a betrayal.

It's like there's something
I should be seeing,

I just can't work it out.

We need to figure this out soon,

because those things are
coming for me and Talon.

Well, maybe there's a
hint of it in my texts.

- I'll keep searching.
- Thank you.

Can we talk?

If this is more about who should be
leading the people, I'd rather not.

No. No, it's not that.

Last time we saw each other, I felt
like you were pulling away from me.

In the woods?

When we were running for our lives?

You know what I mean.

Zed said it might have to do

with the near extinction
of the Blackbloods

and you feeling a pressure
to be with your own people.

So now you're going to Zed for
insight into our relationship?

No. No, I'm coming to you.

- Is it true?
- No.

Maybe. I don't know.

Ever since that slaughter, I
feel like I've failed my people

for not bringing them
through soon enough.

- No, that was not your fault.
- It was my fault.

Now if I have to ask myself
if I'm turning my back

on my people for being with you.

Wren is the Blackblood High
Priestess, and she's with Janzo.

Do you think she's turning
her back on her people?

No.

I can't do this now.

- Where are you going? Talon!
- I need some air.

And I see you changed your clothes.

Yes.

The most uncomfortable thing
I've ever put on my body,

and I don't understand why
humans wear those things.

What's this?

Taste it.

Go on.

- Wilderberry.
- Mm-hmm.

Do you remember being
sent to pick bucketfuls

when we were still in the green world?

We'd eat them all ourselves and
claim the frost had gotten them.

And the stains on our fingers and
lips used to give us away every time.

Mm.

Come with me in the morning and
I'll show you where they grow.

Zed, you want it to be
like old times between us.

- It can't be.
- Why not?

Every day I wake with the loss of
our people pressing down on my chest.

Every day there's
nothing to do but grieve

while I care for orphans
being raised humans.

You want me to forgive you for not
bringing us here sooner, but how can I?

Because it wasn't his fault.

It was mine.

Zed pleaded, argued.

He even tried to force me

to bring the rest of
the Blackbloods through,

and I refused.

I had no idea it would
end the way that it did,

and I'll always be haunted by that.

But if you need someone
to blame, it's me, not him.

You didn't have to do that.

Why haven't you told her?

'Cause I'd rather they blamed me than
you, if you were going to lead us.

I'm not.

Have you thought any more
about the visions we had?

I can't stop thinking about
them. Especially that child.

Any idea why they would try and kill it?

No, I don't know what any of it means

or if any of it means anything at all.

One thing I do know...

is killing babies is nothing to them.

And killing anything and
everything is nothing to them.

Hey. We are going to stop them, Talon.

How?

Guess I'm afraid we're
running out of time.

Nah, you're worth more in pieces.

Damn it.

Janzo!

I've got another bloody
screaming object here.

Sounds just like that
Skevikor key thingy.

You're welcome.

So you stole this for
yourself from Dred's collection

when you were getting the Skevikor key?

Gonna give me grief for
robbing that Prime Order ratbag?

It wasn't his to begin with.

No doubt. No.

Any indication in his reliquary

as to what he might have thought it was?

Not really.

Just laying among
countless other pieces.

I grabbed the shiniest.

So you say it spoke to you
like the Skevikor key did?

Mm-hmm, when I tried to
pry one of the gems out.

Huh. Must mean that it
triggered your Drag...

No, no, please.

It must mean it trigged
your Dragman abilities,

which may mean it's pertinent
to our search for answers.

Did you understand
anything it was saying?

Screams is all.

Seven crystals in the same
colors as the seven kinjes.

Yeah, obviously.

But this shape isn't the
heptagram of the Seven

that we're familiar with.

This arrangement isn't like
anything we've seen before.

I wonder what it means.

Well, thank you for bringing it to me.

You did the right thing.

Don't I get a few beads for it at least?

Could've got a sack full of
coin for it on the street.

No.

I'm not going to pay
you for a stolen relic

that might be help in saving us all,

yourself included. You're welcome.

Fresh linens for the king's room.

- That's fine, Munt.
- Yeah.

Looks like he received some post.

- Yes.
- Any news from His Majesty?

Not today. No.

Ah.

When is he coming back, you suppose?

Uh, no, it's difficult to say.

Commander Spears,

the one thing I like most about Tobin

is he always tells me the truth,

even when it hurts.

Munt.

Come inside. Take a seat.

These here and this here.

- Please, yeah.
- Yeah.

- Or these, um...
- No, Munt.

I have to tell you something,

and it's going to be
difficult for you to hear.

Oh, try this ear then.

Tobin would want you to know

he thought of you as a friend.

- Let's do this ear...
- Munt.

Yeah?

Tobin's been killed.

What's that?

He was slain rescuing Talon

from those things that held her captive.

Unh-uh. That don't make no sense.

I know it's difficult to take in.

No, no. He's the king.

If he was dead, the
whole Realm would know it.

Oh, that's just it,
Munt. They cannot know.

We have to maintain the illusion
that he is still out there.

We cannot have the
people fall into chaos

while those things are out
there trying to kill us all.

He was my friend.

Yeah.

He was the only one that ever treated me

- more than a bartender.
- Munt...

Apart from Janzo, only he has to.

He's my brother by blood,
and then there's Warlita...

I think of you as more than a bartender.

You can come to me any time.

I don't like you as much as I liked him.

There needs to be mourning.

And there needs to be pyres
built and black banners hung.

Munt, the mourning will
have to be kept in secret.

- No.
- In our hearts only, just for now.

Think of it as a final act
of service to your king.

No. No.

- And to your friend.
- No.

- Please.
- No.

Munt.

Munt, all right.

All right. Easy.

- My best friend.
- I know. I miss him, too.

You are a hero, Munt. You are a hero.

I know. I know.

Talon said I might find you here.

Did she?

She said this is where
you come to brood.

- What's that?
- A peace offering.

- Wilderberries.
- Janzo told me where to find them.

Does this mean you've forgiven me?

It's hard letting go of the anger, Zed.

When it's gone, what do I have left?

I've felt directionless ever
since we left the Plane of Ashes.

And what about the
children? You have them.

I'm no caregiver. I'm a
warrior with no war to fight,

and all I see you focused on
are the causes of the humans.

I don't understand why you
work so hard to help them.

Look, us Blackbloods that came
through the portal before you,

we almost destroyed the
world by enabling Yavalla.

The humans, they fought
alongside us to stop her.

I've come to realize we're
all in this together, Nedra,

and this world, it belongs to all of us.

- Ooh, here's something maybe.
- Hmm?

Right, in trying to
answer Talon's questions,

why Vorta wants Aster woken last

and why she calls him the Betrayer...

- Mm-hmm.
- I've come across this.

"Seven there were in the
beginning, masters of the world.

When six departed, one remained

and walked among the first Blackbloods,

teaching them the ways of life."

One remained. Could that be Aster?

Betraying the six by
helping Blackbloods?

I thought Blackblood lore regarded
all seven gods as benevolent.

I know. So did I.

Like I said, these texts
are muddy about everything.

How goes it with Luna's medallion?

Still can't figure out
its purpose. Look here.

If-if these seven crystals

- corresponded to the seven kinjes...
- Or seven gods.

Or seven gods, why is
it in this configuration?

I mean, this shape isn't
recorded in any Yindrian

or Blackblood symbology, is it?

No, not that I've seen,

nor in any of the glyphs
from the Skevikor room.

Hmm.

The red, green, and orange crystals

are clustered together here.

Didn't Talon say that the bodies
of Kultor, Janya, and Levare

were all buried in the same tomb?

Yes. Yes, you're right.

And their corresponding
kinj colors were...

Red, green, and orange.
Is there a connection?

- Wren, look.
- What?

Janzo, is there something on my face?

Hmm.

Thank you.

We know that the tomb of
Kultor, Janya, and Levare

lay beneath the Chamber of
the Three in the Capital.

Yes.

Talon and Zed told us

that Tera's tomb is on the coast

north of Abbot's Harbor.

I believe we've just figured out

where the last two bodies
of the gods are buried.

- To our king.
- And our queen.

It's not right pretending
this didn't happen.

They should be avenged,

and it's gonna be me
that does the avenging.

How are you going to do that?

- I don't know.
- Munt.

I don't want you to go
out there and get killed.

I like having you around too much.

You do?

So these are the locations
to the two last tombs?

- Are you sure?
- Yes. The other five line up perfectly.

I'd wager my left arm that
the bodies of Golu and Aster

lie sleeping here and here.

Yes, for the first time we know

where their comrades
are before they wake.

- We have to use this.
- Well, how?

We break into their sarcophagi,
they'll be unconscious,

kinj-less, and vulnerable,

and we destroy the
bodies of Golu and Aster.

Exactly, then there will be no reason

for the other five to
come after your kinjes,

because, well, the bodies of
their comrades will be destroyed.

I'm not convinced that would work.

I mean, Janya seems to have even greater

resurrection powers than Two had.

Talon, I've just realized where this is.

This is the Shrine of Vor-Anden.

What? Aster's buried at the
same place we found Zed's kinj?

Also seven kinjes were
there at one point, right?

Well, that's brilliant. You
know exactly how to get there.

I'll go to Golu's tomb.
If we destroy their bodies,

our kinjes will be worthless to them.

I'm just not sure that's the right plan.

At least not for Aster.

You know, the so-called
gods call him the Betrayer.

Mm. It would be nice to know

why they call him that
before we destroy him.

There was one thing I read, Talon.

An obscure passage in the ancient texts

referring to six of the
seven gods departing the world

while one remained with the
first Blackbloods helping them.

- Aster?
- Well, it could be, but it doesn't say.

Well, why are you just
telling me this now?

Well, we only discovered it moments ago.

We presumed it was one of dozens

of the contradictory
passages in the text.

If that passage is referring to Aster,

then he could stand to
reason to be an ally to us.

You're making a lot of assumptions.

Maybe. But think about it, Zed.

If Vorta doesn't want Aster woken,

maybe that's exactly what we should do.

The enemy of our enemy is our friend.

You want to wake one
of the Seven ourselves?

Are you crazy?

The only way to do that is by
sacrificing yourself, Talon.

But if maybe if I give my
kinj up willingly to Aster,

- it might work.
- Like it did for Falista?

From the seven handprints
in the Skevikor room,

it seems all seven are needed
to complete their mission.

Waking Aster will only get
them closer to their goal.

I'm not sure.

All right, either decision
could be the wrong one,

but maybe if we get
to him before they do,

he could help us.

Yeah, or he could help them
end all life in our world.

If this thing triggers your memories,

show me something I can use.

Lord Aster, what have you found?

A new world for us all,
full of life for the taking.

Its inhabitants are weak, primitive.

Then let us prepare to relocate.

It is time to re-suspend the Kahvi.

Zed's right.

I need to kill it.

That looks painful.

It's like my whole body was on fire.

Ouch.

Luna, thanks to the
medallion you gave Janzo,

we now have a chance to destroy one
of those creatures before it wakes.

I was never properly compensated
for that contribution, by the way.

I want you to come to the
Shrine of Vor-Anden with me.

Why?

Well, it seems like the
Dragman played a role

in keeping the Masters sleeping.

- I may need a Dragman.
- Admit it.

You just want me to come
because you like my company.

That, too.

- Will you come?
- What else do I have to do?

Killing someone while they slumber?

That's low, even for you, Zed.

See? I knew you'd approve.

- I think you should come with me.
- What?

Well, you said it yourself.
You feel directionless.

This is a cause worth fighting for.

Come on, I need someone by my
side in case things get hairy.

What about Talon?

She's going to Aster's
tomb. I'm going to Golu's.

You're a warrior, so come be a warrior.

Hello, 3-1-3.

I'll speak to the
prisoner alone, thank you.

Well, go on! Out!

Do I have to get my friend
Commander Garret Spears involved?

Are the soldiers treating you well?

- Well?
- Are they bothering you?

They are not kind.

See, they fear what
they don't understand.

But you do not fear me.

Oh, no. No, I'm only intrigued.

When I was connected to the voice
of the Masters, I feared nothing.

Now everything is uncertain.

Do you think perhaps that
could be a good thing?

Separation from the
Master's voice, I mean,

gives you a chance to
choose for yourself.

To choose?

Yes, to make a choice.

For example, I've brought
you two options for your meal.

One is my soup that you had
in my laboratory the other day

and the other is porridge
that you had yesterday.

Which do you choose?

- Soup.
- All right.

3-1-3.

Does this sequence mean anything to you?

Janya, Kultor, Levare,

Aster, Golu,

Tera, Vorta.

The names of the Masters.

Yes, but is the order...

Is the order of any relevance to you?

You see, Luna, she heard
it from the Skevikor key,

and she just kept
hearing it over and over.

Nothing?

I like soup.

Yes. Yes, of course you do.

See?

No one had to tell you to choose that.

You just chose what you wanted

and it made you happy.

3-1-3, I want you to consider

what you might want
to choose for yourself.

Beyond the food and the
jail cell, what do you want?

I want to hear the voice of the Masters.

Yeah, let's just forget about
the Masters for one moment.

What would make 3-1-3 happy?

- Others.
- Others?

They sleep awaiting their Naviaspore.

Oh, the Kahvi?

I miss them.

Wait, so you're telling me

that Kahvi form emotional
attachments like humans do?

Oh, 3-1-3, I'm so sorry.

It must be incredibly difficult

to be without your kind right now.

Difficult, yes.

You poor thing.

Right.

I'm going to do everything
in my power I can

to make sure that your
friends remain safe, all right?

I'm going to, um...

I'm going to tell Captain
Garret Spears about all of this,

and then the more he knows about you,

well, the less fearful he'll be!

Zed! Zed, wait. Wait.

Zed, are you going off

to fight those things that killed...

Um, that killed, you know.

Yeah, we are.

Although hopefully there won't
be much fighting involved.

We're destroying one of their
comrades before they wake.

That's good enough for
me. I'm coming with you.

Munt, there's no need. We can...

There is need. Tobin was my friend.

- Munt, look...
- Zed, let him come.

Fine, but fair warning, those
things are after my kinj.

This could turn out
to be very dangerous.

That's all right.

I'm feeling a bit dangerous myself.

Munt!

Oh, let's go, let's
go, let's go, let's go.

- Munt!
- Oh, Warlita.

What do you think you're doing?

I'm sorry, Warlita, but I have
to kill them who killed Tobin.

I thought we talked about this.

We did. It didn't change my mind though.

It's something I have to do.

You come back to me, you understand?

Yeah, I will.

All right. All right, big guy. Let's go.

Zed. Zed. Did you see that?

Heard you were leaving again.

I was just coming to
find you to say good-bye.

And that's it?

What do you mean?

- Talon, do you love me?
- Garret.

It's a simple question. Do you love me?

Yes.

When I thought I might
lose you to those creatures

that held you captive, one
thing was crystal clear.

I would be lost without you.

I want to be at your side always,

- for the rest of my life.
- What are you saying?

I'm saying I want to marry you.

Talon, I love you. Will you marry me?

I can't believe you're
asking me this right now.

Why?

'Cause there's too many things going on.

People are dying, Garret.
So much is uncertain.

Well, it seems like
it's always that way.

Which is why in a world of uncertainty,

this, us, is one thing that I know

will always be right.

This isn't the right time. I have to go.

No.

Talon!

That was a quick good-bye.

You and Spears in a rough patch?

Never been better.

That may be the first time
that you've lied to me, Talon.

Ah, Warlita, have you
seen Janzo? Is he inside?

No, I know he took some
soup to the prisoner in jail.

That was over an hour ago.

Janzo! Janzo!

- Janzo. Janzo.
- Mm?

- Up, come up.
- Wren?

- What happened?
- 3-1-3.

- 3-1-3?
- What?

The list. The list!

The list from the Skevikor key.

3-1-3, what did you do?

I made a choice.
