1
00:02:52,081 --> 00:02:53,622
Let me through!
2
00:02:54,789 --> 00:02:58,102
Who are you?
-A legionnarie who has fought for the glory of our Empire!
3
00:02:58,311 --> 00:03:02,366
What do you want?
-In the name of my fellow veterans I implore vengeance for
4
00:03:02,395 --> 00:03:04,435
all those killed in Syria...
5
00:03:04,584 --> 00:03:07,728
...Victims of the treacherous Queen Zenobia!
6
00:03:17,254 --> 00:03:22,535
Since the usurpation of the Syrian throne
following the assassination of King Odaenathus,
7
00:03:22,561 --> 00:03:25,107
our most faithful ally,
8
00:03:26,232 --> 00:03:28,216
His consort Queen Zenobia is showing
increasing signs of intolerance towards
9
00:03:28,224 --> 00:03:30,130
the authority of Rome.
10
00:03:31,029 --> 00:03:37,030
Involving the Assyrians, the sacred
ties between our two empires have been severed.
11
00:03:37,486 --> 00:03:41,687
Our garrisons have been caught by surprise and annihilated...
12
00:03:42,126 --> 00:03:46,149
Our flags swept away by desert sandstorms...
13
00:03:46,534 --> 00:03:49,798
This Queen's insane ambition must be quashed!
14
00:03:50,006 --> 00:03:59,320
Perhaps it would be better to trust in negotiations rather than arms!.
-To try and negotiate would be useless, Zenobia rebelled the moment...
15
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:04,008
...she realized we wouldn't mobilize our troops from the
Northern frontiers!.
16
00:04:05,013 --> 00:04:08,798
You all know well that in Gaul and Germania revolts are common.
17
00:04:09,527 --> 00:04:13,690
To retreat even one legion could easily cause a catastrophe!.
18
00:04:13,716 --> 00:04:18,222
What about the catastrophes to come at the hands of this
proud and insane Queen!?.
19
00:04:18,764 --> 00:04:25,764
-And of pride!, we of Rome counter with one of our proudest
Generals. Marcus Valerius!.
20
00:04:26,107 --> 00:04:28,797
Marcus Valerius is but a man, not a God
21
00:04:29,748 --> 00:04:35,829
Not discounting his valor, his troops are too sparse to
quash this Asiatic horde!.
22
00:05:38,870 --> 00:05:43,925
Marcus Valerius. Commander of the Roman troops.
Here he is as requested your highness, alive.
23
00:05:47,622 --> 00:05:49,062
Kneel
24
00:05:49,934 --> 00:05:53,962
Kneel before our Queen, Roman dog!
25
00:05:59,082 --> 00:06:03,599
So a Roman doesn't kneel?
-Not before a Queen who has betrayed us!.
26
00:06:04,153 --> 00:06:07,314
To deal with Rome is nothing but a noose around
the neck of my people.
27
00:06:18,695 --> 00:06:25,911
So all those who resist the will of Rome are traitors?
-What are those who resist kneeling before Queen Zenobia?.
28
00:06:26,543 --> 00:06:29,719
An enemy.
-A vanquished enemy is granted death!, kill me!.
29
00:06:30,023 --> 00:06:33,727
No, death comes to easy for a Roman
30
00:06:34,412 --> 00:06:37,798
Slavery is a more noble sentence for pride such as yours
31
00:06:38,012 --> 00:06:45,221
You developed muscles in the gymnasiums of Rome,
I shall send you somewhere suitable for you to exercise them.
32
00:19:14,912 --> 00:19:16,360
Why are you sad?
33
00:19:18,137 --> 00:19:21,957
Once you have liberated consul Valerius,
I shall never see you again.
34
00:19:22,712 --> 00:19:27,786
I will return Bathsheba,.. together with the Roman legions.
35
00:19:29,018 --> 00:19:30,818
Zenobia will pay for her treason!
36
00:19:31,153 --> 00:19:34,560
They'll all pay!. Including your brother's murderer!.
37
00:19:35,786 --> 00:19:40,098
Poor Odaenathus
-You don't believe he was killed by Rome do you?.
38
00:19:40,330 --> 00:19:42,787
No, I'm sure. Why would they kill him?
39
00:19:43,146 --> 00:19:44,873
Odaenathus was faithful to Rome
40
00:19:45,818 --> 00:19:48,418
No, his murderers are in the courts of Palmyra
41
00:19:54,378 --> 00:19:56,051
Bathsheba..
42
00:19:56,892 --> 00:19:58,307
Sunrise..
43
00:20:00,339 --> 00:20:03,634
..I must go.
-It's best you do, no one should see you.
44
00:20:04,635 --> 00:20:06,372
But I shall return soon..
45
00:20:07,164 --> 00:20:09,547
When I do, you shall no longer be a Vestal.
46
00:20:11,924 --> 00:20:15,880
Yet simply Bathsheba, wife of Julianus.
47
00:24:03,001 --> 00:24:06,618
Flavio,.. go up there and keep a close eye
48
00:24:08,692 --> 00:24:12,725
I'll take care of this
-Well, at least you haven't forgotten me
49
00:24:13,417 --> 00:24:17,437
It isn't I who count you know,
It is Rome who never forgets it's greatest sons.
50
00:24:17,786 --> 00:24:19,250
A defeated son
51
00:24:19,929 --> 00:24:26,186
In Rome, both the Senate and the Emperor know you
were up against an enemy ten times stronger..
52
00:24:26,650 --> 00:24:28,818
..They also recognize it as an honorable defeat
53
00:24:29,723 --> 00:24:32,130
Friendship can blind one from seeing reality
54
00:24:32,978 --> 00:24:35,163
In Rome nothing but shame awaits me
55
00:24:35,717 --> 00:24:38,879
Do not fear Marcus Valerius, for Rome needs you
56
00:24:39,819 --> 00:24:41,002
Julianus...
57
00:24:41,851 --> 00:24:43,074
I have an idea
58
00:24:43,443 --> 00:24:45,825
I'm all ears
-A magnificent idea
59
00:30:27,509 --> 00:30:31,111
Can you understand this?
-I confess I give up even trying to understand how we are going...
60
00:30:31,319 --> 00:30:37,215
...to be attacked, only to surrender and subsequently fight back.
Nobody even knows when it will be, we've been languishing...
61
00:30:37,399 --> 00:30:39,199
...in the Sun for two days now!.
62
00:30:57,747 --> 00:31:00,956
Here they are!
Dispose of your weapons and surrender!. All of you!
63
00:37:47,373 --> 00:37:51,773
Roman don't you think Bathsheba could have assisted
the prisoner's escape?
64
00:37:52,205 --> 00:37:53,666
What do you think?
65
00:37:54,153 --> 00:37:58,994
That the so called Lator is very faithful
in complying with orders given by you
66
00:37:59,266 --> 00:38:01,601
Maybe...
What makes you say that?
67
00:38:02,282 --> 00:38:07,867
There's a strange coincidence, both the fire that was put
out as well as the disappearance of Bathsheba from Palmyra...
68
00:38:08,059 --> 00:38:14,667
...that occurred on the same night the prisoner's escaped
-So.. Zemanzius is quite astute after all.
69
00:40:23,309 --> 00:40:25,075
How do you expect your God to help you?
70
00:40:25,717 --> 00:40:29,973
The same God who allowed his prophet to be crucified?
-Doesn't the pain of your beloved Bathsheba make you..
71
00:40:30,165 --> 00:40:35,606
..love her even more?
Does her suffering for you and her sacrifice show you her love?..
72
00:40:35,908 --> 00:40:41,620
...This is how the sacrifice of Jesus feels to us,
it shows us the goodness of his word.
73
00:43:41,224 --> 00:43:42,648
Sir, the Queen awaits
74
00:43:43,248 --> 00:43:44,472
I'll be right there
75
00:44:08,049 --> 00:44:09,906
This uproar is such a nuisance
76
00:44:12,496 --> 00:44:14,527
The consul Marcus Valerius is here
77
00:44:19,744 --> 00:44:21,217
Call for Zemanzius right away!
78
00:44:25,082 --> 00:44:27,756
You seem much more comfortable dressed this way
79
00:44:28,909 --> 00:44:31,778
That's because this is the kind of clothing I have always worn
80
00:44:32,433 --> 00:44:35,907
A slave's rags were new fashion for me
-Possibly
81
00:44:37,074 --> 00:44:39,619
I'll be more useful to you like this than in chains
82
00:44:39,914 --> 00:44:43,690
I only hope your slavery hasn't exhausted your ability to fight
83
00:44:43,506 --> 00:44:51,067
Does this mean hope towards my freedom?.
-It's a promise.
In my army there is a worthy place for a Roman ex consul
84
00:44:51,338 --> 00:44:52,923
I shall be honored to serve you
85
00:44:56,652 --> 00:45:00,299
You called for me. I have news for you.
-Come forth
86
00:49:19,959 --> 00:49:21,679
If only you were not a Roman
87
00:49:22,624 --> 00:49:25,935
And if only I could touch the Moon by merely reaching for it
88
00:49:27,326 --> 00:49:30,591
You are the only man alongside me who appreciates life
89
00:49:31,310 --> 00:49:34,782
Perhaps that's because I have been so often close to dying
90
00:49:36,822 --> 00:49:43,000
I do love life
-As you should, after all you are young, beautiful, powerful
91
00:49:44,080 --> 00:49:48,647
And alone
-With but one command all fall at your feet
92
00:49:48,935 --> 00:49:50,816
True...
93
00:49:51,760 --> 00:49:53,721
...But to choose,..
94
00:49:54,801 --> 00:49:56,105
..is nothing..
95
00:49:57,480 --> 00:50:00,464
..compared to being chosen
96
00:50:00,816 --> 00:50:03,265
I dream I was never your enemy
97
00:54:38,954 --> 00:54:41,714
Marcus Valerius is no longer an enemy Zemanzius..
98
00:54:42,545 --> 00:54:47,642
..Well?
-A wise plan, but you have made one simple mistake..
99
00:54:48,254 --> 00:54:53,286
..You have foreseen everything Zemanzius, everything.
Including the ingenuity of your adversary.
100
00:54:55,526 --> 00:54:59,294
I hadn't considered Roman resourcefulness..
101
00:54:59,695 --> 00:55:03,304
..Yet we have defeated them before
-Zemanzius!
102
00:55:03,575 --> 00:55:04,888
No Zenobia he is right
103
00:55:05,588 --> 00:55:08,148
I was defeated. But, I only had six legions at my disposal...
104
00:57:59,112 --> 00:58:04,025
Does the Sun burn in Rome as it does here?
-In Rome the weather is as sweet as an eternal Spring
105
00:58:04,905 --> 00:58:09,585
Would you ever return?
-No, never. I'd find nothing but luxury and intrigue..
106
00:58:10,729 --> 00:58:16,666
I would though return to my home town Tusculum.
Where the wind caresses the pines, reflecting in a crystal lake.
107
00:58:18,202 --> 00:58:20,322
The desert is also fascinating
108
00:58:26,547 --> 00:58:30,315
Sometimes.. my days just seem so empty, without meaning
109
00:58:31,249 --> 00:58:33,137
I only feel alive through my love for Palmyra
110
00:58:34,009 --> 00:58:38,523
I know Rome is powerful and civilized, if I rebelled it was only
because my land was suffering.
111
00:58:40,328 --> 00:58:43,704
Humiliated.. Subjugated..
Can you understand?
112
00:58:44,354 --> 00:58:49,605
Yes Zenobia, I can.
-I only want goodness for my people..
113
00:58:50,301 --> 00:58:57,581
Not only those in the hills and cities, but also those who
dwell in the desert. For too long have they been forgotten about
114
00:58:59,444 --> 00:59:01,963
Can you help me to make my dreams come true?
115
00:59:03,478 --> 00:59:06,875
Sure.
-Never leave me Valerius
116
00:59:09,612 --> 00:59:11,418
Does this still occupy your mind?
117
01:06:37,538 --> 01:06:41,323
Marcus Valerius. I wish to speak to you of Bathsheba,
the sacred vestal virgin.
118
01:06:42,410 --> 01:06:46,059
Bathsheba is imprisoned underneath the temple.
Nobody may see her.
119
01:06:46,323 --> 01:06:51,842
Valerius listen, she and I are in love.
You must release her from the high priest's grasp
120
01:06:52,994 --> 01:06:55,506
Julianus, I'll see what I can do.
121
01:07:00,998 --> 01:07:05,453
For the love of God consul Valerius.
Save Bathsheba from being sacrificed
122
01:13:36,362 --> 01:13:38,738
Pity!
123
01:13:41,382 --> 01:13:43,775
I had always suspected Zemanzius was a traitor
124
01:13:50,850 --> 01:13:52,427
Have Zemanzius arrested.
125
01:14:32,821 --> 01:14:38,014
For before the sun rises twice, the Romans may be at the steps of
our undefended gates!.
126
01:14:38,285 --> 01:14:42,685
I refuse to believe our Queen would betray her beloved fatherland!.
127
01:14:46,198 --> 01:14:49,510
What would I gain by lying to you?
128
01:14:50,667 --> 01:14:53,380
I have always served my people faithfully
129
01:15:02,237 --> 01:15:08,803
He who disagrees, may the Gods forgive his blindness.
130
01:15:25,678 --> 01:15:26,814
Noble friends...
131
01:15:27,646 --> 01:15:29,663
I had never doubted your wisdom
132
01:15:30,592 --> 01:15:32,175
But before we go our separate ways..
133
01:15:32,735 --> 01:15:35,232
..To aid the salvation of Palmyra..
134
01:15:35,920 --> 01:15:38,448
I wish to invoke your enlightened reason..
135
01:15:39,488 --> 01:15:41,296
To consider another grave matter.
136
01:15:42,800 --> 01:15:45,599
I speak of Bathsheba.
-The sacred vestal!
137
01:15:50,018 --> 01:15:56,138
The sacred vestal who's sacrilege has brought the fury of
the Goddess upon us.
138
01:15:57,282 --> 01:16:02,299
Marcus Valerius has convinced Zenobia to pardon her.
139
01:16:04,340 --> 01:16:08,397
And meanwhile Bathsheba refuses to expiate her crime..
140
01:16:08,773 --> 01:16:18,319
Ghosts of disgrace, mourning,.. and defeat shall wander..
Casting her evil omen upon our land!
141
01:16:18,621 --> 01:16:25,910
Zemanzius is right!. Bathsheba must be killed!
142
01:27:38,723 --> 01:27:39,971
You have been defeated!
143
01:27:46,326 --> 01:27:47,401
Stand back!
144
01:31:26,465 --> 01:31:31,834
Now return to your people. Guide them towards a
prosperous future, under the Sign of Rome.
145
01:31:33,225 --> 01:31:40,637
I recognize the future of Palmyra rests on the shoulders of Rome,
please, allow my people to be born again with clemency
13622
