PERSEUS THE INVINCIBLE

Galenor, the men in the forest
are awaiting your signal.

My prince, the
swamp monster isn't far from here.

We should look
for another way to cross.

The men are afraid.

This is the only road
that meets the sea.

The future of our people depends
on the success of this mission.

We have a duty to try.

To the lake!

We'll all die here.

Retreat!

Over here.

This is the end, my prince.

This is the valley of petrified men,
the kingdom of Medusa!

It's useless to flee.

Medusa will be watching for
our departure and attack us.

We'll wait here in readiness for her.

Don't look at her or you'll be
turned to stone by her gaze.

Come on!

The King of Seriphos must learn
he can't disobey us.

Return to Argos.

We're going back to Argos.

It's impossible to find
a passageway leading to the sea.

Even Alcaeus succumbed to Medusa.

I needlessly sacrificed
my own son.

I shouldn't have have allowed him
to undertake that mission.

I alone am responsible for his fate.

I'll be tortured with remorse
until the day I die.

Father.

Why grieve like this?

Alcaeus acted
for the good of our people.

Some day,

you'll see Medusa perish
and Alcaeus return to life,

and all those she's turned to stone.
Don't give up hope.

I hope I live long enough
to see if this belief...

is not just the fruit
of your imagination.

We respect your grief,

but we must carry on our commerce...

or Seriphos will fall
under the domination of Argos.

I've governed Seriphos...

for over 20 years without
war with Argos.

But without friendship, too.

The King knows that Medusa
and the swamp monster...

block our route to the sea.

He's taken this opportunity to
charge a toll on our merchants...

who cross into his territory.

Argos has reduced our people
to starvation.

He requires a tax
on all our goods.

I'd rather die in an unwinnable war
than be their slave as things stand now.

I have a horror of war.
That must be the last resort.

Your wisdom is honorable.

But there's another,

much simpler way.

Acrisius, King of Argos,
wishes to have his son Galenor...

marry your daughter Andromeda.

Thus our two peoples would be united,

and the merchants of Seriphos
could pass unhindered.

That would mean
yielding completely to Argos.

What's more,

I've lost my son
fighting this cause.

Don't ask me
for another sacrifice...

that of my daughter.

Only I can arrange my own life.

I will get to know Galenor,

and I'll make my own decision.

lnvite him to Seriphos.

Galenor is invited to Seriphos.

I managed to arrange things
according to your will.

That's good.

As always,
I can count on your friendship.

And friendship has a price.

Go tell your King to receive my son
with full honors.

Galenor will depart shortly.

Is Andromeda beautiful?

That's what they say.

But it's not so much
beauty that matters.

I know that.
It'll be a lovely day,

when I reign in both
Argos and Seriphos.

Isn't that what you want?

That's only the beginning.

According to tradition,
we must tell the Queen Mother.

Jupiter,

you who can read
into the hearts of men:

take pity on my pain.

Give me a sign of your power...

so I can continue to believe...

in the revenge that will eliminate
my husband's assassin.

And my son?

Where is my son?

It's been 20 years since
he was taken from me.

No news of him
has come to comfort my heart.

Enough, Danae!

Your son is dead.

Resign yourself to reality.
Face the truth.

You're my wife,

the Queen of Argos who lives at my side.

The love that you could've given
to your own son,

give to mine, Galenor.

Renounce your folly!

Assassin.

Jupiter will never forgive
my fatal error:

that I wed the
murderer of my husband.

But I didn't know.

I had no idea...

and my people deserved a King.

Then stop raving
before this stone statue!

Why do you leave this
crazy old woman alive?

The people love their
Queen, as you know.

And she despises us.

My son has returned.

The dead don't come back.

My son is alive.

He's come back to kill you.

Enough of this madness! Shut up!

Do you know this prophecy:

"Blood demands blood"?

The son of the King you murdered
will eliminate you and your offspring.

You, you will die
by my son's hand.

I wish your son was alive,
so I could kill him in front of you!

My son will kill you.

He'll avenge the death of his father.

Before you die, you will recognize him.

He bears on his shoulder
the three marks of Jupiter!

Don't forget, Galenor!

Before you die, you will recognize him.

Perseus!

To think that I taught you how to shoot.
You came close to hurting me.

I shoot better than you do.
I've nothing more to learn.

The student has surpassed the teacher.

We'll see about that.

Are you ready?

It's my turn.

Ready?

You won.
I couldn't have done better myself.

Farewell.

Wait, you just got here.

Rest a little.

I have to go.

What's more, I don't like
fishing by hand like you do.

If a trout escapes, I let it go.
I only do this for fun.

- Like with a certain woman.
- Who do you mean?

You.

Well said.
Who told you to say that?

I've wanted to tell you for a long time,
but I couldn't find the words.

And you never give me the time to do it,
you always leave so quickly.

I don't even know your name.

You'll find out later.
I must go now.

Farewell.

When will I find out your name?

The day I decide you will.

When will you come back?

She appeared and disappeared
even faster than before.

She's like a Goddess.
Maybe one from these mountains.

If she returns,
I'll prevent her from leaving.

Whether Goddess or mere mortal,
I'll keep her with me.

I love her so much.

But you already knew that.

Where is Andromeda?

I don't know.

On behalf of my people,
I bid you a warm welcome.

I doubt your people
share that sentiment.

Enter my humble abode.

I've heard tell of your beauty,
but I see...

no words were equal to it.

Your gallantry is honorable.

Here are some gifts,
that are very drab compared to you.

Accept them as a tribute
that will open the pathway...

leading to your heart.

The heart is a wealth that
can't be sold. It must be offered freely.

You must be tired.

Tomorrow, I'll organize
a hunting party in your honor.

Princes from
neighboring provinces...

will come to see you.

We'll take you to your room.

You didn't answer
my proposal.

It's a little soon for that.
I don't know you very well.

I knew when I saw you
that you were the one.

Your enthusiasm
makes you say silly things.

Look.

Ask the stone why it fell,

and it will answer
that it was thrown by my hand...

ignoring that it obeys
the law of gravity.

What do you mean by that?

That no one escapes their fate.

And I'm your destiny.

I like to challenge fate.

That would be useless.

We're expected
for the hunt.

We'll resume
this conversation later.

Your daughter is playing with fire.
Why is the decision up to her?

I don't want to force Andromeda.

After all, it's her life.
It's hers to decide.

Galenor expects an answer.
If he feels offended,

all our hopes will crumble.

My daughter knows what she wants.

Stop!

This deer was mine.
He had no right...

Wild animals belong to
the king and the princess.

Get on your knees, wretch!

The princess?

Bow down!

Must I bow down to you also,
or spit in your face?

Don't strike an unarmed man.

There's no question I can beat
this mongrel.

Give him a whip.

This will be a good show.

A duel with whips.

The sword is a soldier's weapon.
For him, a whip will have to do.

- Wait.
- He's offended us. He must die.

Our laws don't allow
a man to be executed...

because he can't defend himself.

He'll pay.

Since you committed an offense,
you'll have to atone for it.

Very well.

A tournament will be held tomorrow.
You'll both fight equally armed.

Each of you will defend
the colors of your own city.

You'll defend the colors
of Seriphos. Do you agree?

Yes, princess.

You were waiting for my answer?

Then here it is:

I will wed the tournament's champion.

Then consider me your husband.
I'll be the winner.

That honor will cost you dearly.

I declare the tournament open.

Choose the weapon you prefer.

May the Gods protect
the bravest...

among you.

Don't forget, Galenor!

Before you die,

you will recognize him!

Tell me your name so
I may announce the winner.

I asked you your name.

My name is Perseus.

But it doesn't matter
because I don't want anything.

Neither your daughter
nor your kingdom.

Who is your father?

I don't know who
either my father or mother are.

I appoint you my chief guard.

Come back here!

That's an order.

You never told me the truth.
How do you expect me to forgive you?

If I'd told you who I really was,
would you have accepted me?

I can accept you for what you are:

A woman I dare not love.

You could have saved
me from suffering.

It's not my fault.

It was you who refused our marriage.

You could have done it differently.

You're a princess,

and I'm a simple man,

accustomed to living alone
in the mountains.

How does that make any difference?

If you reject Galenor,
there will be war.

I refuse to be the cause of that.
That's why we must go our separate ways.

I can have no claim on you.

My love could give much to you.

Stop tormenting me.

Someday, I may
succeed in forgetting you.

Help me to find the strength
to give you up.

I won't allow it.

I refuse to sacrifice
my life with you.

lt's not just about us.
On meeting Galenor,

I knew marriage with him
would reduce my people to slavery.

While you...

you are my only hope.

Please leave me.

Our men are ready.

Then move out.

Alert!

Catch them!

Come on!

To your horses! Quick!

They've abducted the princess.

Listen!

Delay them.
We must gain time.

Guards! Guards!

No. No!

War is inevitable now.

My people are risking their lives.

Wars are played on the battlefield.
That's where I'll be.

What can you do alone?

The king of Argos has a powerful army.

Our best men were killed
by the swamp monster...

or turned to stone by Medusa.

Like my poor brother Alcaeus.

I know. Those monsters have
made Argos invincible.

They say that if Medusa dies,
the petrified men will come back to life.

Is that true?

I don't know.
That's what the legend says.

Nobody knows if it's true.

Perhaps Medusa can't die.

You know,

I thought I could convince Galenor...

to give up his plans of domination...

and avoid a war.

I thought I could control
events stronger than myself.

What an illusion!

I'm a woman.
I know I spoiled everything.

My people's fate is sealed.

There's still hope.

I'll take Galenor back to Argos.

I'll speak to the king.
Maybe I can convince him.

No, the risk is too great.

I must try.

Take the horse.

To your horses!

Escort the princess to Seriphos.

Prince Galenor will
return with me to Argos.

I know you won't
change your mind.

I'll wait for you.

I'll return. Don't worry.

Let's go to Argos.

What a comforting sight.
We greatly need it.

After winning the tournament,
I saved your son.

I spared him again...

when I prevented the
abduction of my king's daughter.

I took with force...

what was due me!

But you failed.

Have this man executed.
He's a danger to us.

Your courage surprises me!

It's not my blood
that flows through your veins.

No danger frightens me!

What do you want?

That you live in peace
with the people of Seriphos,

and that your son renounce
his claim on Andromeda.

- Anything else?
- Yes.

That you let the traders of
Seriphos pass through your territory...

without taxing them.

That's putting it bluntly.

Why should I accept?

Because if there is a war,
I'll be leading the army of Seriphos.

And I'll continue on as long as there's
one soldier left to resist you.

Even if you emerge the victor,

it will cost you dearly.

And you will have won
a dead populace...

and a ruined city.

What would be the point of it?

I should have you hanged
for your impudence.

A war won't solve matters.

I propose a combat
to decide for us.

A duel between
your son and myself.

We're stronger than you,
yet you're the one imposing conditions?

Shut up.

I'll think about it.

I owe that to the life of my son.

I offer you hospitality here.
You'll be treated with deference.

Go!

Have you become a coward?

Does the idea of fighting
this man frighten you?

I can fight and defeat any man,

but not the will of the Gods.

What did you say?

Have you gone mad?

Can you heal my wound?

It's strange, but
I have a sense of d�j� vu.

Most likely from a dream.

What is it?
Why do you look at me like that?

Pardon the curiosity
of an old woman.

Those three marks on your shoulder,
where did they come from?

I don't know. I've always had them.
They bring me luck.

Listen.

I know someone who can
heal your wound very quickly.

It's only superficial.

It's better to heal it, believe me.
Trust me.

This claptrap has
made you lose your head!

You wouldn't say that
if you'd been in my place.

During our fight,

I was thrown to the ground...

at the feet of the shouting crowd,

and I saw the marks on his shoulder.

And this voice kept
hammering me about the prophecy!

Enough!

I tell you, it's him.

I know that.

I understand it.
That's why I was frightened!

I...

Galenor,

prince of Argos,

am afraid.

My son...

it's you.

A mother can't be wrong.

I know now that
my hope was justified.

Mother.

What an immense joy
when I say that word.

"Mother", a word for me
that evoked no face.

You're here,

at my side.

This isn't a dream,
but reality.

I've found my son.

The prophecy is therefore true.

We must leave.

It's too dangerous here.

If they discover who you are,

they'll want to kill you.

They don't frighten me.

Away from here,
you can rouse the people.

The power of Acrisius lies in
the mercenaries he pays for,

but the populace hates
both he and his son.

When they find out that
you're the legitimate king of Argos...

No! They'll never find out!

Guards! This man has violated
the rules of hospitality!

He killed the queen!

Arrest him!

No!

Don't violate this temple
with a second outrage!

He killed the queen!

The murderer is...

Catch him!

Don't try to escape!

Face me,
I'm not afraid of you anymore!

Grab a sword!
Fight against me,

so I can plunge this blade...

into your heart!

I'll return, Galenor!

To avenge my mother
and take back my throne!

And when I defeat you,
I'll show no mercy!

I'll crush you with my hands!

Come back here! Come back!

You can attack with my army.

No. The army of Argos is too strong.

Galenor and Acrisius
must be reduced to nothing.

What can you do all alone?

Let our men fight with you.

Your people shouldn't fight
on my behalf.

It's my business
and that of my people in Argos.

Whatever you decide,
you can rely on us.

My army is ready to help.

I'm eternally grateful to you.

I must go.

All of our meetings
seem to end in farewell.

- They won't, someday.
- Take me with you.

Don't make this
separation even harder.

On my return,

I'll keep you close to me forever.

Perseus has fled to Seriphos.

He must be killed,
demolished completely.

The army will be ready at dawn.

We'll leave shortly after that.

Prepare yourselves!

Don't have too
much impatience, father.

You've recaptured your
zeal from earlier times.

I'm proud of you.

I, Perseus, son of Danae,

legitimate king ofArgos,

declare that the prince
is an assassin and a usurper.

I call upon my people!

Men of Argos, take up arms...

and follow me!

This tyranny must come to an end!

The war against Acrisius and Galenor...

has begun!

Guards! Arrest that traitor!

Long live Perseus, king of Argos!

We're ready.

Hopefully Galenor
can lead them into his trap.

My son will succeed.

Galenor!

Withdraw!

Galenor!

Here's the end
to this ridiculous story.

Return to Argos.

Gather the army together.
They leave for Seriphos.

Let's go.

Our men were either killed
or dispersed.

But at least the
swamp monster is dead.

Argos is vulnerable on that side.

If your army attacks
by surprise, it can win.

Acrisius believes I'm dead
and is preparing to attack you.

Assume command.

Very well.

May the gods protect your enterprise.

Assemble the men.
We're leaving.

I knew one day you'd save us.

Move in here.

Too late.

Prepare our defense!

It's no doubt useless.

We can't resist a siege for long.

There's still a chance:

reunite the dispersed soldiers
and attack Acrisius.

Stay with us,
you'll be more useful here.

Trust me.

If they haven't accepted
our conditions before dawn,

we'll attack.

Tomorrow, Andromeda will be mine.

And the people of Seriphos
will be at our feet.

Even the horses are nervous.

They sense that battle is near.

Mother...

My friend.

All dead.

Those who escaped...

have been turned to stone...

in the valley of Medusa.

It's all over.

Not yet.
I'm going to bring them back.

Useless.

Others have tried...

before you.

They're our companions.

Alcaeus, the men of Seriphos...

I must try!

Medusa is dead!

You can return to life!

Medusa is dead!

Return to life!

The spell is lifted!

Why have you not returned?

You must come back to life!

Cast death aside!

I killed Medusa!

I killed her so that
you could come back to life...

and take revenge!

Blessed are the Gods.

It's a miracle!

Medusa is dead!

Who killed her?

We're alive!

Hail Jupiter!

Who are you?

You're Alcaeus,
son of the king of Seriphos.

Send in the cavalry.

He's alive!

THE END
