All language subtitles for The.Colossus.of.Rhodes.1961.

Let's go. Hurry!

Come! This way, hurry!

Sound the alarm!

An extraordinary spectacle,
uncle.

Fit for an oriental court.

- Amuse you, Dario?
- Spectacles always amuse me.

You'll like my island of Rhodes

even more
than your native Greece.

After the fatigue of war,
I knew you'd like a short stay

on the island of peace.

And this perfume,
what is it, uncle?

Roses, my son.

Rhodes is also
the island of flowers.

And beautiful women,
from what I can see.

In Rhodes, even the women
have a special fragrance.

A mixture made out of sunshine

petals of flowers, the sea--

And flesh?

At my age, that's a superfluous
ingredient, Dario.

You have designed and built

one of the greatest monuments
of all time, Carete.

You, Carete, have made it
possible for posterity

to learn of the strength
and power of King Serse.

Rhodes now dominates the seas.

Perhaps our ceremony is not
to the liking of the God.

The monument surely seems to be
a threat to their omnipotence.

I assure you both it's not true.

I know the Gods
could only be delighted

that a monument so imposing
was built in their honor.

It is a proud day
for the king of Rhodes.

To you, Apollo, God of the sun

we humbly dedicate this
magnificent statue.

Conceived and born

from the divine mind
of our king

and gloriously realized
by the quiet labor

of his loyal subjects.

May the sacred fire burn always
on this altar in the sky

and guide those
who sail in the night.

And may it strike
terror and awe

in the hearts of those
who would plot against Rhodes.

Burn, oh, fire!

May your flame be as eternal

as the glory of King Serse.

Very relaxing,
your island of peace.

If only he had talked
to us about it.

What could he have hoped
to do all alone?

Poor Rihanos.

What a great waste.

No, Mirte.

Our fight is more important now
because of Rihanos.

The people in Rhodes
do not want slavery.

This colossus
was erected in blood.

They worked and labored on it
for ten years

because of the whim of a ruler.

Our brother hoped
he could inspire rebellion.

That's not enough.

Our people need
supplies and arms...

...not only inspiration.

The Greeks, they'd help us.

They'd be happy
to aid our cause.

They don't even know
our cause exists.

There's no help from them.

If only we could talk to someone

who might persuade
the Greeks to aid us.

A man that Greeks respect.
A man like that visitor Dario.

He's a great warrior in Greece.

I wonder
if we dare approach him.

Brothers, if you like,
I will go to Dario.

No, Mathos.
We could not appear at court.

All four of us
are too well known

as opponents of the regime.

I'm sorry, Mathos.

Always fiddling with toys.

This might not be a toy at all.

Thar.

The splendor of our court
is pleasing, don't you think

to the ambassador of Phoenicia?

He seems to be enjoying it.

However, sire, your great wealth
could propagate ill will.

Envy.

And you envy me, huh?

I only admire.

My profound loyalty to you
only permits me one emotion

that of great admiration.

There's no doubt that you people
know how to amuse yourselves.

I think my mother was right.

She said this island
was a wonderful place.

Your mother knows Rhodes?

She was born here, Diala.

It's surprising that a stranger
admires the island as you do.

Oh, I'm only half a stranger.

I already know
quite a few people here.

Take that man over there,
for instance.

He's been staring at me ever
since the celebration began.

There's so little opportunity
to stare at great heroes here.

Nectar of Euphrates.

An offering from your
humble palace servant.

I think you ought to reward
these people.

Let us allow him the first drink
in gratitude for such devotion.

My boy, you drink it.

Drink or you'll be beheaded.

Somehow I've lost my desire
for wine.

No need to do without wine,
Dario.

Just never be the first one
to drink.

Have the assassin taken away.

You seem to know Rhodes well.

Tell me something. Is this
a celebration or a massacre?

It's not our affair.
I'm not concerned.

Well, I think
we ought to, uh, watch out.

You must be used to death?

The second in one day is too
many in time of peace, I think.

I wanna forget it.

Shall we go outside?

Noble sir,
when may I speak to you?

I'm quite busy right now.
Tomorrow if you wish.

It's beautiful.

A marvelous garden.

Of course, the enchantment
of nature is always enhanced

by the presence
of a lovely lady.

Mm.

Now you sound like a poet.

I shall have to be
quite careful.

No more so than you are now
if you avoid my eye.

There.

What? You mean, you haven't
already succumbed to my look?

Do all girls find you
so irresistible?

Not all of them. With some of
them, I commit the same error.

What?

Well, with some...

...I, uh, waste too much time.

Diala!

Diala?

Diala?

The whole dynasty is here.

Diala?

Dario.

Haman.

Clio.

Nestor.

Geryon.

Hm, no name here.

Atreides.

- Philomela--
- Dario.

Pardon me, was that you?

Have you forgotten me already?

Well, I followed you here.
Isn't that enough?

Perhaps you need more proof
of my ardor.

Why'd you bring me here?

To be alone with you. To speak.

I command you
to say something beautiful.

Being so close to you,
I've lost my voice.

Even my breath.

Then you shouldn't stay here.

Your cheek is fresh
as a morning dew.

Your ear, a flower about to bud.

And my lips?

Your lips...

Diala.

I'm sure you'll find
some good company in there.

Good company indeed.

The proposal, as it is offered,
does appeal to me.

As the Phoenician ambassador
states, it would mean

Rhodes and Phoenicia
would control the sea.

But will not Greece
protest an alliance

between us
and their enemy Phoenicia?

Yes, naturally.

And we have always been
a friend to Greece.

I think I should consider Rhodes
before I think of Greece.

The colossus in our harbor
makes us

the strongest port
in the Mediterranean

for the simple reason
that it provides

an impregnable harbor
for our own ships

and the ships of our friends

beginning naturally
with Phoenicia.

Imagine the surprise
of the Greeks

when their ships are regularly
plundered by the Phoenicians

who then take refuge in Rhodes.

What makes you think the Greeks
don't already suspect us?

Please.

Uh, I, uh,
I was hoping this doorway

would, uh, would reveal
the secrets of this labyrinth.

Can you explain
how you got into it, Dario?

Got in?

Well, more exactly,
I, I fell in.

I was standing,
uh, leaning against the wall.

Suddenly,
the wall turned around

and there I was
on the other side of the wall.

Well, that is, I, uh,
I was on this side.

I was chasing a girl.

I pray your pursuit
be continued, Dario.

Oh, thank you. Thank you.

I hope you'll accept my, uh..

...my apologies.

Thar, do you think that
young Greek meant to spy on us?

It's likely.

However, no need to be alarmed.

I've foreseen
something like this.

So much tension exists
on Rhodes, I thought it wise

to issue an order that no one
be allowed to leave the island.

Especially a soldier of Greece.

Now shall we proceed?

Yes, by all means. Proceed.

Your island from this point onto
the other side is impregnable.

The only spot accessible
is your harbor.

Our Phoenician ships
loaded with Greek booty

will be able to take
refuge there.

The colossus pours out
molten lead

on those
who might pursue us here.

Your island,
in its enviable position

in the middle of the sea,
is more precious than gold.

We Phoenicians
are more than happy

to split the booty in half.

Do you mean that?

Good counsel, Xenon.

In order to accept,
I must make this one condition.

The port is open to no more

than three Phoenician ships
at one time

and no more than 200 men
are to enter.

We would not want
the Mediterranean powers

to misinterpret
the intentions of this pact.

They must not think
we are ruled by Phoenicia.

I accept.
May this project benefit

both you and my king.

Theo.

Well, did you speak to Dario?

No.

He was too concerned
with a woman tonight.

I'll try again.

- I'll try again in the morning.
- No.

We must see him tonight.

We'll get to him somehow, Theo.

Now you must go.
You've risked enough already.

But..

Go, hurry.

Carete and his daughter
are Greeks, I think.

No, he and Diala are from Lydia.

I thought only a Greek mind

could have created
such a beautiful work of art.

Oh, you mean the colossus?

These awful storms.

I've lived on this island
all my life.

You think I would have gotten
used to them by now.

Are you afraid of thunder?

My dear nephew, you don't know

what a storm on this island
can mean.

It can bring havoc
from one moment to the next.

Here, we're at the center
of the sea.

Rhodes is at the mercy
of the elements, my boy.

I've always found
the best remedy for a thunder

is to sleep.

I suppose you're right.

Well, thanks to my architect

my room is better protected
than most.

Up you go.

Blasted thunder. Oh.

As you say,
sleep is indeed the remedy.

However, there are times
when sleep must be helped along.

Ah, now the end
of the world could come

and I wouldn't even hear it.

I imagine
soldiering is not a simple job

especially when you have to play
the hero all day.

I don't play the hero.

In fact,
talking about this thunder

I owe a debt of gratitude
to lightning.

It was at the Battle of Ipsus
where I surprised Callimachus.

Just because he'd been stunned

by a bolt of lightning
that struck nearby.

I shall never forget
the look on his face

when with one arm, I squeezed..
Oh!

Alright, let's go. Right now.

Who are you? What do you want?

We must speak to you.
It's extremely important.

- Well, talk then.
- No, not here.

We have no wish
to harm you, Dario.

Come with us.
You have no choice.

We never meant to fight you,
but you forced us to fight.

Oh!

It looks like we'll have
to carry him back with us.

Quickly,
there's no time to lose.

Someone must have seen us.

Now let's go. Come.

Dario?

Dario!

Dario!

- Mm.
- What happened?

So Rhodes is the island
of peace, hm.

Well, I prefer war.

Excuse me. Who are they?

They're Macedonian slaves

furnished to us
by the Phoenicians.

King Serse probably needs
the poor devils as laborers

to build more monuments
to his pride.

Is that him?

I'm looking for passage
to Athens.

Under orders of the king,
no one may sail from Rhodes.

But I have to get back home.

No sailings are allowed
unless properly authorized.

Well, if one were willing
to pay double the price.

I don't think you heard me.

No one sails.

Thank you.

Let's go.

You stay here.

- No, I should go.
- I must approach Dario alone.

A woman averts suspicion.

Gather around,
my dear friends of Rhodes...

I have in my possession...

The sacred birds
from the temples of Persia.

The bird you see now
is as precious

my friends,
as a pearl or a ruby.

It has a beak that is as hard
as the best iron.

Yet it is as gentle as a lamb,
faithful as a dog

and since your humble servant
has already trained

these magnificent birds
for you

they will act as guardians
of your home.

Evil spirits..

Are you looking for someone?

I see I wasn't too subtle.

Well, in fact,
I was following you.

Now what should we do?

I can grant
your most secret desire.

Oh.

Which one?

I know you wish to arrange
passage from Rhodes.

I saw you at the pier attempting
to obtain this passage.

I know men
who own a good vessel.

- And the price?
- Taking a small risk.

You'll go?

I'd rather not risk if possible.

I can get help
through the court.

I'm a stranger here.

Let us hope.

If you find
you're wasting your time

go the pier
and look for a torch.

A man will be there
as your guide.

Good day and good luck.

One moment.

Now I must go.

Huh.

If you succeed
in developing this new weapon

of yours, Carete,
we shall be invincible.

No one is ever that.

Our ancestors
with their stone axes

also believed
they were invincible.

We are nothing but sand.

A good sized wave can still
threaten to destroy us.

Our footprints are temporary.

The colossus will stand.

Your genius will too.

Somehow I feel
I've created nothing.

Rhodes is certainly proud.

Especially Diala.

She's proud to call herself
your daughter.

She's proud? Ha, I'm sure.

Proud of the money
and honor she enjoys

as a result of my inventions.

What are you saying?

When her mother died,
I, I brought her to my house

and took care of her
as if she were mine.

I tried to the best
of my ability.

But I know I won't succeed

even though you think
I can accomplish anything

in producing blood ties
that do not exist.

Dario, I pray your youth
and good spirits

can bespell
Carete's depression.

A little while ago, I was
prevented from leaving Rhodes.

Why?

Well, I only thought
I should further extend

our hospitality to you.

Hospitality is not a prison.

At this time,
it's impossible to grant you

a permit to leave here.

You shall have to stay
in Rhodes.

Very well.

I'll do it my own way.

Dario.

The conquering hero honors us
with a visit.

The visit is over
and so is my interest in Rhodes.

Is it that your visit
was too dull for you?

I bore you?

On the contrary

my visit was brief but exciting.

It's awful, but I love
to play jokes on men.

I beg you to forgive it.

You don't think
I'm leaving Rhodes

just because you forced me
to explore

the underground passages
in the palace, do you?

No.

It's just that I'm anxious
to breathe the air

of my own country.

But, but you can't leave
the island.

Mm-hm. So they say.

I have been waiting
a long time for you.

Follow me.

This is the ship. Go down.

Welcome.
Welcome aboard my ship.

Thank you. When do we sail?

Just as soon as I assemble
my men, I'll cast off.

- 'Ooh-ooh.'
- Who's there?

Who are you?

Just a woman.

Don't be afraid.

Hm.

It must get lonesome here.

Who are you looking for?

A guard
to keep me company tonight.

Just a moment.

Send in the signal.
Not too loud.

- There it is, the second one.
- Row.

Let's hope
their soldiers sleep well.

- You've spoken to Dario?
- No.

When we get out to sea,
I'll speak to him then.

Slow.

Pull up the oars. Quickly!

Over the side!

Jump, men. In you go.

Jump in now!

Now I know
why you were in a hurry

to sail back to your homeland.

This document.

You wanted to deliver
this document.

What is it?

Don't tell me you've forgotten.

It's useless, Dario,
to go on pretending.

Our enemies in Rhodes,
a small and vicious band

bent on opposing
the lawful government

are looking for foreign aid
to bolster their cause.

They hired you
to bring these lies to Greece.

They'd like the Greeks
to help them unleash a civil war

on the island of Rhodes.

This treason
shall not go unpunished.

I don't know
what you're talking about.

I was only trying
to get back to Athens.

The most astonishing slanders
appear in this document, Dario.

It seems we're totally corrupt.

We're criminals.

It also states
that we're plotting

against Greeks with Phoenicia.

What's more? You, Dario,
are specifically named

as their representative.

I hardly need more proof
of your treachery.

And I tell you, I had nothing
to do with this whole affair.

You know, your own accomplices
may not agree with you.

You recognize your friends?

You know who they are?

The sailors from the boat.

I think you could be
a bit more specific.

Tell me you don't know
who this is.

Surely, you recognize him.

I don't know him.

He also, in his way,
is a man of the nobility.

Peliocles.

Eldest brother of a family

which dares pretend
to the throne of Rhodes.

This man is the leader
of traitors

and it's apparent
that you have joined his ranks.

The Athenian is innocent.

He's never seen
any of us before.

He knows nothing.

I wanna know only one thing

and you'll tell me gladly
before I'm through with you.

Tell me where the rest
of your men are hiding.

You'll learn nothing.

Hm.

The bell.

These vibrations,
if continued

would shatter his eardrums.

However, I don't want him deaf
just yet.

Pull it up.

Arouse him, guard.

I command you to talk.

I'll get him to talk.

No, it's a waste of time
to try

to get anything
out of these jackals.

See that they're all
kept in chains

while I go and prepare
for their execution.

Come ashore.

Alright, move!

Another boatload of slaves.

Serse must have great plans
for Rhodes.

Something's strange here.

Even Serse could not find use
for so many slaves.

You go back, Mirte.

You're planning
to stay here?

I'm going to follow those slaves
and see where they're taken.

Perhaps they'll be put
in whatever prison

they're holding our brothers.

That's not very likely.

We've tried everything else.
I've got to go.

I might even find Dario.

Just try to find
our brothers, Mathos.

All rise.

Warm greetings, Sirione.

I hoped you would lead
our soldiers from Phoenicia.

Sirione will take his orders
from you alone.

He is one of the bravest
of our Phoenician officers.

And an actor as well,
the way he winced under my whip

as if the pain
were unbearable.

The pain was certainly
real enough, Mahor.

You must admit
you were whipping me

with all the strength you had.

Noble sire, I would deem it
the greatest of honors

if you would order me
to kill King Serse myself.

Your enthusiasm
is commendable, Sirione.

However, we must all be patient.

With your help, the throne
of Rhodes will soon be mine.

Let Serse take comfort
while he can

in the impregnability
of his island.

For the conquerors
of his colossus have arrived

masquerading as slaves.

Only when the deed is done
will it be the time to rejoice.

Here are your initial orders.

You will repair to your quarters
beneath this temple

until it is time to strike.

I shall instruct Sirione
as to all military details

and after Serse's downfall

you shall know the extent
of my gratitude.

Follow me!

Theo.

Something new?

Your brothers
and all captured rebels

are going to be sacrificed
to Baal this very day.

Follow me.

Dario.

Guards, you wait here.

I managed to talk with the king.

It's up to you now
to save your life.

What would I have to do?

You must tell them where
the rest of the rebels are.

Tell them everything you know.

I know nothing.

I told Thar that.

And I have something else
to say.

Even if I did know,
I wouldn't speak.

But why?

By now, you must have realized
they're common bandits.

Why die for them?

I think it's pretty obvious
who the bandits are.

But you..

...you could go free.

Oh, Dario.
I don't want you to die.

Goodbye, Diala.

Guards!

Forward!

Here.

We must get away
before they send reinforcements.

Back to the cave
at the Stone Desert.

Come!

Uncle.

Guess I'm in this
as deep as you.

Hurry up, Dario. Come.

You're sure you're not mistaken?

Positive. I tell you,
I saw hundreds of Phoenicians.

The underground temple
was full of them.

Hm. Thar obviously
is behind this.

He's no longer content
with the power

Serse stupidly
bestowed upon him.

He wants this beautiful island
to sell it to Phoenicia.

Then he'll be
the reigning monarch.

We can't let that happen.

Surely there's something
we can do.

We don't have enough men
to attack them openly.

Do you have a plan?

Yes, I have.

To look for a way
to enter the colossus.

But the colossus is impregnable.

How could we hope to get in?

This is now a fight
for survival, men.

Rhodes' best soldiers
are imprisoned underground.

A heavy gate
seals the only exit.

This gate can only be opened
by a control in the colossus.

You told me about it.

That's right.

I was working in a group
that built it

to make sure that the
installation was kept secret.

Those who worked on it
were thrown into the fire

so they would not be able
to talk about it.

But I got away.

So the control is there.

If we're lucky,
we'll locate it

and what's more important,
open the gate.

Once we release the prisoners

they can help us
to attack Thar.

Do you approve?

Six of us
should be able to do it.

Let's say tomorrow.

I want each man to pick one.

That's suicide.

Colossus is a huge trap.

Every detail has been studied
for years

to make it impregnable.

How can you hope to break
into it with a handful of men?

Do you have
a better suggestion?

We must try this
or it will be all over.

All of us here feel the same

and we all understand
the greatness of the risk.

Without any hope
of coming out alive?

We'll see.

To bring peace to our people

is worth more
than the lives of six men.

You?

I was sure you'd left Rhodes.

You shouldn't be here.

Don't you have the sense
to realize you're in danger?

Who would look for me here
at this time of night?

You certainly don't seem
to lack courage.

You'll have to explain.

What is it?

You act so foolishly
just out of a desire to see me?

Diala...

...I must see your father.

It's very important.

Important?

What is it, Dario?

To save Rhodes.

Thar is a traitor.

He's hidden a small army
of Phoenician soldiers

in the temple of Baal.

Impossible. You must be wrong.

How could the Phoenicians
enter the harbor?

Thar is a very shrewd man.

Those Macedonian slaves
that arrived here recently

were soldiers in disguise.

But he couldn't.

Unfortunately, it's true.

We can still be in time
to stop him.

What do you want with father?

The poor man
couldn't be of any help.

Your father's the only one
who knows

the secrets of the colossus.

With his help, we can turn
the tide against Thar.

Father's been spending nights
at the colossus

working on some new invention.

Well, can you get word to him?

I must speak to him.

Don't worry.
I'll bring you to see father.

Without me,
you'd probably get caught

so we'll go together.

That might be dangerous for you.

I thought you said
this was to save Rhodes.

Dario,
everything will be alright.

You will leave me
if anything goes wrong.

The only thing I ask of you is

in case of danger,
warn Peliocles.

You'll find him in the caves
at the Stone Desert.

I will. Now you go.

I'll come back.

Dario.

Dario, I...

Here is the first control room.

Amazing.

What is all this
complicated machinery used for?

In a word,
for the protection of Rhodes.

Stop! You mustn't touch this.

It controls the door
to the prisons.

Your little visit
is quite a surprise, Athenian

but I'm delighted you came.

Watch out!

He managed to elude us.
He jumped into the water.

You fools.

Why does this Athenian
outwit all our men?

You are right to be angry,
Diala, but...

...the day has not been
unprofitable after all.

The Athenian will not live long
nor will his newfound friends.

Your bringing him here
was a magnificent idea, Diala.

I'm sure he suspected nothing.

I was afraid he would get
to speak to father.

Sentimental father.

I know he would have helped
the Athenian.

In a short time, Rhodes will be
in our hands, Diala.

There will be no more obstacles
in our way.

No, there is still
one obstacle left.

Yes,
this deluded old man labored

so that it might benefit
all humanity.

I thought I was working

for the freedom of the people,
not their enslavement.

But you're planning
to betray Rhodes

and I thank the Gods I have
found out in time to stop you.

Dia... Dia...

It was inevitable.

Now with his death,
Rhodes is ours to conquer.

Mirte?

You must be so proud
of what you've done to us.

They were very efficient.

What do you mean?

Thanks to your information

Thar's soldiers were able
to take us by surprise

and completely wipe us out.

They took Peliocles
and your Uncle Lisippos.

They took
all our best soldiers.

They'll hold
the execution tonight

so you can watch
my brothers killed.

- But you don't think--
- We don't think, we know.

You are the traitor.

You told Thar
precisely where our camp was.

Mirte saw you in Rhodes
last night at Diala's.

But now we'll play your way.

Oh.

Mathos.

Everything is ready, sire.

Come, Mirte!

People of Rhodes!

People of Rhodes!

A terrible danger
hangs over your homes

and all your children.

A group of traitors
has delivered the island

to a foreign power.

Hundreds and hundreds
of Phoenician soldiers

are in the city

awaiting the order to attack!

I forbid you to go on, Athenian.
I forbid you.

Be careful, Serse.

The treason was prepared
in your own palace.

The colossus you built
is now a nest for the traitors.

And they're waiting
to overthrow the throne

to enrich themselves
with the treasures of Rhodes

and impose a reign of terror.

May the Gods mete out to you
a horrible death for...

Over there!

Stop! Stop!

What are you going to do
without arms?

You'll all be killed!

- But the people are with us.
- We need trained men.

There's a thousand of our men
under the colossus

in the prison cave.

If we free them,
we still have a chance.

- Peliocles.
- Mirte.

Oh.

You're all alright?

But how do we open this gate?

This way!

- Mathos.
- Peliocles.

There's no time to lose.
To the colossus, everyone!

You've done more
than your share, Dario.

Now you better think of safety.

Safety? There is no safety.

I'm sure you don't know
where the secret entrance is

at the colossus.

And you don't know where to open
the gates to the prison.

Wait, we will approach
the prison caves by sea.

Dario will get to the control
in the colossus

that opens the prison gates.

May I go with you?

The signal.

The signal.

Send them the reply immediately.

Thar's plan has worked.
King Serse is dead.

Splendid.

The colossus is in our hands.

Thar is about to assume
the throne of Rome.

And right now on the seas,
our proud Phoenician fleet

rapidly approaches
to support his reign.

According to my information,
the sails of the first ships

will appear
on the horizon at dawn.

Thar, a masterful strategist,
has prepared it all.

My mission is almost over.

I congratulate you,
future queen of Rhodes.

Up.

Guards, come with me.

Two of you, follow me.

The rest of you,
guard the entrance.

Guards, form ranks.

This opens the door
at the prison.

Let's go.

Dario, look out!

Get out, men! Get out!

Hurry, get out of here, men!

'Don't move, Athenian.'

Kill him.

'No.'

'Why wait, Diala?'

It will be too easy for him.

And later, we'll have more time.

Good.

With this, we'll get
into the colossus

and turn it against our enemies.

What happened to Mathos
and Dario?

Forward!

Hurry.

Tie him up.

It seems your rebel friends
wish to visit us.

I shall greet them very warmly.

Load the catapults.

Faster!

A few more times should do it!

Athenian, that is molten lead,
for your information.

Let go.

Over there!
Everyone, take cover!

Again.

Peliocles, Mathos and Dario
are up there alone.

We must get them out.

No, no, no,
that would be suicide.

Half our men
have been wounded already.

We'll think of something else.
Come.

Your companions
are inordinate cowards.

They're all running away
in terror.

Take the injured
and carry them inside.

Peliocles, we've got to go back

and try and stop
those cursed catapults.

No. We're staying right here.

All we can do is wait
for them to come out...

...and put our hope
in, in Mathos and Dario.

Peliocles!

Peliocles!

The Phoenicians!
Phoenician ships.

- The Phoenicians?
- Where are they?

Offshore. Over a thousand.

The whole Phoenician fleet.

If the wind doesn't change,
they'll be here

within the hour!

Sirione, you should be proud.

I am proud
that our fleet served Rhodes.

Now Rhodes and Phoenicia

will be the rulers
of the world.

Earthquake!

Earthquake!

Wait!

I order you to get back
to your posts!

It's steady now.

But what if the earthquake
begins again?

Attention!

Make way.

Make way.

Out of my way.

Go out and you'll be killed.

Look at them run.

Imbeciles.

They forsake me
when I need them most.

And, you, you're not afraid?

Well, Diala,
why don't you forsake me too?

I'll not forsake you, Thar.

I don't dare stay here.
They'll kill me.

I'll get to the ships.

Yes, the ships.

They, they can take me
to Phoenicia.

After them!

Killing me makes no sense,
Diala.

You'd be left all alone.

We'd better try
to get out of here.

Diala!

Diala!

Diala.

There's no pain at all.

Funny...

...I...

...I wanted so much...

...but I die
without getting anything.

I'll find some help.

I'll get you out of here.

- Dario, over here!
- Creonte!

Dario!

- Mirte!
- Dario!

Dario, we must find
the east gate!

This way! Hurry!

Ride to the Stone Desert.

Koros, jump on, hurry, hurry!

- Dario.
- Lisippos.

By Jupiter, I never thought
I'd see you again.

Are you alright?
Are you hurt?

Oh, no.
The Gods were with me, Dario.

Oh, not even an earthquake

prevents you
from courting a woman.

My dear uncle

she's not just a woman,
she's my woman.

Congratulations, Dario.

Will you take her
to live in Athens?

No, we're staying in Rhodes.

In Rhodes?

Yes, there's a lot
of work to be done.

After all,
this is the island of peace.
