And here's the transcript for Episode 6: The Bride Wears Armor
0:01 NARRATOR: This podcast features adult language, violent imagery and mature themes. Listener discretion is advised. 0:10 (BELLS TOLLING) (PEOPLE CHATTERING) (SEAGULLS CAWING) 0:17 (BELLS TOLLING) NADIA CARCOSA: (groans) It feels good to be back on 0:22 dry land! TAASH: Try squeezing into that tiny ship when you're twice the size. DRAYDEN KIEL: Is that passage always so (gulps) choppy? 0:30 BARKER: Good blessings, weary travelers! Welcome to the shores of Rivain. Such a beautiful day to make landfall. 0:38 The three of you looked like you could use a nice crisp ale! You should head over to- DRAYDEN: Excuse me! (DRAYDEN VOMITS) 0:45 BARKER: Oh, for the love of Andraste, at least aim for the water! (ALL CHUCKLING) NADIA: I'm so sorry. They're not accustomed to boats. 0:53 BARKER: I would've never guessed! TAASH: Don't worry, we'll get some sea legs on you yet. DRAYDEN: I think I'm good on the ocean for the time being. 1:00 NADIA: Well, Barker was right about one thing. It is a lovely day! (BELL TOLLS) 1:05 (sighs) Ugh, Maker. I love that mist of salt in the fresh sea air. Reminds me of home. 1:11 TAASH: Fresh? Smells like rotten fish and day old garbage. NADIA: (laughs) Exactly! 1:17 TAASH: What do you say we go grab that drink? NADIA: You're on. DRAYDEN: I don't mean to be a wet cloth, but we're getting some suspicious eyes 1:24 from those guys over there. TAASH: Over where? DRAYDEN: Over by those fishing nets. NADIA: Yeah, they're definitely looking. 1:30 TAASH: (cracks knuckles) I'll go have a word with them. NADIA: No, best not to draw any attention. Drayden and I need to avoid any run-ins with authorities. 1:37 TAASH: Then let's head that way and get our butts into town. NADIA: Good call. (FOOTSTEPS) 1:45 (FOOTSTEPS) NADIA: Drayden, you see anything? Are they following? 1:50 DRAYDEN: Nah, the coast looks- HENCHMAN 1: Mmm-hmm! And where are you three off to in such a hurry, eh? 1:56 DRAYDEN: Uh- HENCHMAN 2: Yeah, don't you want to stay and talk? (cackles) 2:02 NADIA: Look, guys, it's been a long few days. We don't want any trouble. So let me skip to the part where you ask for money 2:08 and I tell you, we ain't got so much as a single rusted bronze! TAASH: Just say the word. (DAGGER CLANGING) 2:13 NADIA: Easy, Taash. (DAGGER SLIDING) HENCHMAN 1: Yeah, easy, Taash! (METAL SLIDING) Listen to Nadia. 2:20 DRAYDEN: They know who we are. NADIA: Bounty hunters? HENCHMAN 3: The best in Rivian. TAASH: Sounds like a challenge. NADIA: It kind of does. 2:26 DRAYDEN: What happened to not drawing any attention our way? TAASH: Don't worry. This will only take a second. (HENCHMAN CACKLING) 2:33 HENCHMAN 1: You are about to regret those words! (HENCHMEN SNICKERING AND HECKLING) 2:39 TAASH: Carcosa? NADIA: (sighs) Do it. (PUNCHES LANDING) (HENCHMEN GROANING) 2:46 HENCHMAN 1: (screaming) Mercy! Please, don't kill us! TAASH: I won't. 2:52 But can't promise you'll ever hold a knife again. (BONES CRACKING) (TAASH GRUNTING) (HENCHMAN SCREAMS) HENCHMAN 1: My hand! TAASH: Now get out of here before I break the other one. 2:58 (SCREAMING FADES) NADIA: Thanks...again. TAASH: You want to tell me what's really going on? 3:05 NADIA: I do, but I also do not want to drag you into this. DRAYDEN: It's probably best we get out of town as fast 3:11 as we can. Those bounty hunters picked up on us as soon as we stepped off the boat! NADIA: (sighs) I'm afraid I've really made a mess of things. 3:19 TAASH: Life's messy. Where are we off to now? NADIA: We? No, you are staying here. 3:24 TAASH: The hell I am. NADIA: Taash, I appreciate it. I do, but I'm not risking anyone else who's close to me. 3:32 And honestly, I don't even know what's next! We're supposed to be looking for Elio and I just... 3:39 (sighs) Damn it. DRAYDEN: Nadia, don't worry. I have an idea. NADIA: Drayden, please. DRAYDEN: No, listen, I know we've gotten off track, 3:46 but we can regroup. We just need to go somewhere safe and take a moment. NADIA: Look around us. Nowhere is safe! 3:52 Where could we possibly go? DRAYDEN: Antiva. NADIA: Antiva? That place is crawling with assassins! 4:00 Are you mad? DRAYDEN: Yes, but I have people there. I swore I'd never go back, 4:05 but that's what makes it perfect. I'm taking you home. (SEAGULLS CAWING) 4:10 (FOOTSTEPS THUDDING) TAASH: You should listen to the kid. NADIA: (sighs) Okay, fine. 4:17 Antiva it is, but I meant what I said. You are staying here. TAASH: You're no fun. 4:23 NADIA: Taash, I... TAASH: Me too, Carcosa, me too. 4:31 (FOOTSTEPS) Travel well! Both of you. NADIA: Hey, one day, we will get that drink. 4:38 TAASH: Yep! And you're paying! (MUSIC) 4:46 NARRATOR: This is Dragon Age: Vows & Vengeance. Chapter 6: The Bride Wears Armor. 4:54 (PEOPLE CHATTERING) (DISHES CLINKING) 5:01 (TABLE POUNDING) LORD BORGIANI: If I may have your attention? (PEOPLE CHATTERING) Everyone, please! 5:06 (PEOPLE CHATTERING) (SILVERWARE CLANGING) I said, shut up! Maker's left foot, you lot are an ill-mannered, 5:13 slobbering ruckus when the wine is strong and flowing. (PEOPLE LAUGHING) 5:19 I'm sorry? Do you think that's funny? Did it sound like I spoke in jest? 5:24 I invite you into my home to celebrate a day like today. And you behave like this? Like animals! 5:34 Hell, many of you still owe the house Borgiani from the last great feast! 5:42 So, I ask you, what am I to do with you? 5:49 Perhaps you should all check your wine. (GLASSES CLINKING) (PEOPLE GASPING) 5:55 (LORD BORGIANI LAUGHING) Your faces! Dear Maker, your faces! 6:00 LILLEMAR: Father... (PEOPLE LAUGHING) LORD BORGIANI: Sorry, sorry. I couldn't resist. But we all know why we're really here, 6:08 to celebrate my one and only daughter's wedding! A night that is cause for celebration across all of Antiva. 6:17 Lillemar, my sweet. Come here, stand with me! (FOOTSTEPS) 6:24 My beautiful girl. If only your mother were here to see the woman you've become. 6:30 I see her in you every day. In your grace, in your strength, in your heart. 6:36 LILLEMAR: Father... (sniffles) LORD BORGIANI: She would be proud. Now, where is this bridegroom of yours, hmm? 6:45 Marco! Where's Marco? MARCO: Here! Lord Borgiani! LORD BORGIANI: Well, don't just stand there! Come be 6:52 with your wife! She's the only one here prettier than you. (PEOPLE LAUGHING) 6:57 Everybody, please, (PEOPLE CLAPPING) raise your drinks as we toast this union! 7:02 Two souls made one by the bonds of marriage under the eyes of the Maker himself! 7:09 May their days be peaceful and their love eternal. 7:15 And for the love of Andraste, get me some blasted grandchildren! (LORD BORGIANI LAUGHING) (PEOPLE CHEERING) 7:21 Yes, yes! Eat, drink, fall over yourselves and toast to the new life that is- (coughs) 7:28 (MUSIC) LILLEMAR: (chuckles) Father, please! No more jokes! (LORD BORGIANI CHOKES) 7:35 Father? MARCO: My Lord? Give me your arm. LORD BORGIANI: (stammering) I'm fine. I'm fine! Just-just-just- (DISHES CLATTER) 7:43 LILLEMAR: He can't breathe! MARCO: Somebody get help! LUCANIS DELLAMORTE: He has been poisoned, my lady! LILLEMAR: Who are you? 7:49 LUCANIS: I'm new to his lordship's service, but my previous master kept questionable company. I've seen this before. He needs elixir of embrium now. 7:57 MARCO: We should wait for the healer! LUCANIS: My lady, I am not wrong. LILLEMAR: Just go, hurry! 8:03 LORD BORGIANI: Wait, I'm going with him! (coughing) LILLEMAR: Absolutely not! LORD BORGIANI: Whoever...whoever did this could still 8:10 be here! Have the guards locked down the halls (coughs) quietly. 8:16 Get to safety! LILLEMAR: Yes, father. (LORD BORGIANI CONTINUES COUGHING) LUCANIS: This way, my Lord. LORD BORGIANI: (coughing) That's- that's not the way 8:23 to the kitchen, you fool! LUCANIS: This may be your castle, my Lord, but trust that your servants know its secrets. 8:30 There is a faster way. (LORD BORGIANI COUGHING) (DOOR OPENING) As I said, the kitchen, wait here. 8:38 (LORD BORGIANI CONTINUES COUGHING) (whispers) No, no, no. 8:43 Mmm-ah! Elixir of Embrium. Drink. 8:48 (LIQUID GULPING) LORD BORGIANI: (sighs) By Andraste, that was torture! 8:56 I owe you my life, young man. LUCANIS: You owe me nothing. LORD BORGIANI: Nonsense! You were the only one to- 9:04 It was you, wasn't it? LUCANIS: It was. (SWORD CLANGING) LORD BORGIANI: Don't suppose we can talk this out? 9:10 I am rich, you know? LUCANIS: A Crow never abandons a contract. LORD BORGIANI: A Crow! I should have known! 9:16 (FOOTSTEPS) (SWORD SLICING) LUCANIS: (yawns) I'll make it quick. LORD BORGIANI: You'll have to excuse me, if I don't say thanks. (DAGGER SQUELCHING) (LORD BORGIANI GROANING) 9:24 (groans) My people, they'll find you! LUCANIS: I don't think so. (BLADE TWISTS) (LORD BORGIANI GROANS) 9:30 LORD BORGIANI: At least pay an old man the respect of knowing who's come to kill him on his daughter's wedding day! 9:37 LUCANIS: Lucanis Dellamorte. LORD BORGIANI: Dellamorte. I must have really pissed someone off for them 9:44 to take out a contract with the likes of you. Tell my daughter, goodbye. (LORD BORGIANI SLUMPS OVER) 9:54 LUCANIS: House Amato was given no goodbyes. (BLADES WHOOSHING) 10:00 (LUCANIS GRUNTING) But I'll make sure your death doesn't ruin the wedding. 10:07 (EARTH RUMBLING) (GLASSES SHATTERING) (OBJECTS CLANKING) Not another earthquake. 10:13 (THUNDERCLAP) (ELECTRICITY CRACKLING) 10:19 (PEOPLE SCREAMING) Did I just teleport? What sorcery is this? (WOMAN SCREAMING) 10:26 GUEST: The Lord! The Lord is dead! LUCANIS: Huh, looks like the wedding is ruined after all. 10:32 LILLEMAR: Father? Father! What's this blood? MARCO: It was the servant! Look, he killed him! 10:39 LUCANIS: I'll show myself out. LILLEMAR: Seize him! MARCO: Get him! Murderer! (GUESTS SHOUTING) LILLEMAR: Avenge your lord's life! 10:47 (THUNDER CRASHING) (HORSE WHINNYING) (HORSE GALLOPING) (OWL HOOTING) 10:55 (NADIA GASPING AND GROANING) 11:00 DRAYDEN: Another one of your dreams? NADIA: Ugh. If you can even call them that. (yawns) 11:08 DRAYDEN: You know, in Tevinter, they speak of the somniari. Though you may be familiar 11:13 with another name for them: Dreamers. NADIA: Yes, I've heard the name in passing. 11:20 DRAYDEN: A skilled dreamer is a mage that can enter the Fade at will, but sometimes it may just refer to someone 11:26 whose mind wanders the Fade in their sleep. NADIA: Is that what you think is happening? My mind is wandering the Fade? 11:33 DRAYDEN: I suspect that whatever happened in there between you and Elio created some sort of connection, 11:38 something allowing him to find you when you sleep. NADIA: Well that's good, isn't it? It means he's still alive, right? 11:47 DRAYDEN: I once studied some scrolls collecting ideas about dreamers, the Fade and its dangers. 11:52 Bits taken from stories about Marethai Talas, the Dalish Keeper. And these works speak about powerful mages 11:59 that can actually shape the Fade to attack the minds of sleeping people. So maybe Elio, being a powerful mage, 12:07 has found a way to use this ability to communicate across our worlds. 12:12 NADIA: But...? DRAYDEN: But it's the severity of your pain, your sorrow, that worries me. 12:20 (BIRDS CAWING) NADIA: Why? DRAYDEN: Because dreamers also attract demons. 12:27 NADIA: What are you saying? DRAYDEN: Look, I'm just speculating. However- NADIA: (groans) Just spit it out! 12:32 DRAYDEN: I think the painful emotions you're experiencing in these dreams are a reflection of what Elio is feeling on the other side. 12:41 And if they keep getting stronger... NADIA: Then whatever danger stalks him is getting closer. 12:46 DRAYDEN: Something like that. (NADIA SIGHS) NADIA: Shit. (OWL HOOTING) 12:51 DRAYDEN: We've just entered (BELLS JINGLING) the forest around my family's estate. We're close now. So it's probably time I tell you. 13:00 It's best you don't call me Drayden while we're here. NADIA: What? Why? 13:05 DRAYDEN: Here, I am Aristide of House Amato, the name I was given, not the name I took. 13:12 NADIA: You don't sound happy to be back. DRAYDEN: I didn't leave on the best of terms. 13:17 NADIA: Hey, it'll be okay. They're your family. They'll be happy to see you. 13:23 DRAYDEN: We'll see about that. Whoa! (HORSE WHINNYING) NADIA: What's wrong? DRAYDEN: Look at these trees, so many cut to stumps! 13:32 Others growing with rot! It shouldn't be like this. Hold tight. We need to hurry. 13:39 (HORSE WHINNYING) (HORSE GALLOPING) Something is definitely wrong! NADIA: How can you tell? DRAYDEN: Above the gate, my family crest. 13:46 It's split! In the garden, everything grows with chaos. But my father kept these grounds impeccable! 13:52 NADIA: Perhaps they traveled? DRAYDEN: My mother never travels. (HORSE WHINNYING) 13:58 (HORSE NEIGHS) Come on, let's go inside and see. (DOOR SQUEAKING) 14:06 Mother? Father? Hello? 14:11 NADIA: It doesn't look like there's been anyone here in months. DRAYDEN: Hello? (ECHOING FOOTSTEPS) 14:17 NADIA: Hey, over here. Look at this table, it's busted! Like there was... DRAYDEN: A struggle. 14:24 Mother? (DAGGER CLANGING) NADIA: We need to watch our backs. (GLASS CLATTERING) 14:29 DRAYDEN: Follow me. I'll crack the door, you look inside. 14:35 (DOOR CREAKING) What do you see? NADIA: Nothing. I think it's empty. 14:42 DRAYDEN: Stand back, I'm going in. NADIA: Drayden! Let me go first. DRAYDEN: No, you stay here and stay quiet. 14:49 I know this manor like the back of my hand. If there's someone hiding, I'll draw them out. 14:54 Be ready for anything. (DOOR CREAKING) (FOOTSTEPS) 15:04 (OBJECTS SHUFFLING) DRAYDEN: (faintly) Hey, you! I see you! Come out, show yourself! (DRAYDEN SCREAMING) 15:12 NADIA: Drayden! (DOOR THUDS) DRAYDEN: (grunts) Get away! (OBJECTS RUSTLING) (BLADE CLINKING) 15:18 NADIA: Back away from them, or I'll cut you a new smile, now! ELIZA CHAMBERLAIN: Whatever you say. (FOOTSTEPS) NADIA: Now, drop your weapon! (DAGGER CLATTERING) 15:27 ELIZA: (sighs) Easy, love. Let's not do anything hasty. NADIA: Says the woman attacking my friend! ELIZA: Attack you? You've crossed the threshold of 15:34 House Amato! You are trespassers! DRAYDEN: I beg your pardon? This is my family's- 15:39 (ELIZA GASPS) ELIZA: (gasps) Aristide? Is that really you? 15:46 DRAYDEN: Eliza? ELIZA: Oh! Oh, bless the Maker! (sobs) Oh, you're home! Oh, you're really home! 15:56 NADIA: Drayden, who is this? DRAYDEN: This is Eliza, she took care of the estate, 16:01 and well, she took care of me, really. She was my nursemaid. ELIZA: I told your folks you'd be back! They didn't 16:07 believe me. (FOOTSTEPS) DRAYDEN: Eliza, where is my family? 16:15 Why does the place look like this? ELIZA: Oh dear. Oh, you haven't heard, have you? 16:23 DRAYDEN: Heard what? ELIZA: Your family, they're gone! 16:30 DRAYDEN: What do you mean, gone? (ELIZA SOBS) Eliza, just tell me. 16:35 ELIZA: They're gone, just murdered in the night. DRAYDEN: What? No... 16:42 No, you lie! ELIZA: Oh child, I'm so sorry! 16:49 (DRAYDEN SCREAMS) NADIA: Drayden! DRAYDEN: (sobs) No! 16:56 (DRAYDEN SOBBING) (MUSIC) 17:04 (MUSIC) ELIZA: It was about a year ago. 17:11 Darkness had come to Antiva. Fields of crops rotten overnight, terrible storms. 17:17 (THUNDER CRACKING) Earthquakes swallowing villages. (EARTH RUMBLING) 17:23 (OBJECTS CRASHING) Drummed up all sorts of rumors. Demons, spirits, the Fade. 17:32 (CREATURES GROWLING AND SCREAMING) 17:37 Wasn't long before people turned to paranoia. Neighbors accusing neighbors of wielding dark magic. 17:43 Oh, things got bad, but your father vowed to find the source. 17:50 But while he searched for answers, another chose to stoke the flames. House Borgiani saw opportunity 17:58 and they were happy to profit from everyone's misery, and they were brutal about it. 18:04 Your father figured out what they were up to, but it was too late. 18:11 (KNOCKING) The Borgianis had already taken too much power and whispers of your father's search 18:18 had landed on their doorstep. (DOOR SQUEAKING OPEN) He was their next target. They broke into the house. 18:26 I stumbled upon one of the killers in the night and met his blade, (ELIZA YELLS) which is how I got this scar running across me face. 18:34 They must've thought I was dead or else I'd surely not be here today. (PEOPLE SCREAMING) (KNIVES SLASHING) 18:40 (PEOPLE GROANING) They got him in their sleep. I found them the next day when I finally awoke. 18:48 Their bodies entwined. (MUSIC) 18:57 DRAYDEN: And where are their bodies now? ELIZA: Ah, your uncles took them. They were given a pyre in secret. 19:04 Something safe to prevent any attempts at desecration. DRAYDEN: And what about them? The rest of the family? 19:12 ELIZA: Scattered. Hiding. Hopefully safe, but... 19:17 DRAYDEN: But probably not. ELIZA: No, probably not. I'm sorry. 19:22 NADIA: I don't understand this! How did they get away with everything you've just told us? ELIZA: Lord Borgiani framed the family as rebels 19:29 against the monarchy to cover his tracks. But we all knew the truth. (DRAYDEN GROWLING) 19:36 (FIST POUNDS) DRAYDEN: I've heard enough! This...this cannot stand. 19:42 Nadia, you stay here with Eliza. NADIA: Now, hold on a minute. I know you're upset, but I'll be damned 19:48 if I'm going to let you run out of here on a whim. DRAYDEN: On a whim? They were my family, my parents. 19:55 It doesn't matter if they didn't want me, I must avenge their murder! ELIZA: Oh, what do you mean they didn't want you? 20:00 DRAYDEN: Oh, don't do that, Eliza! You know exactly what I mean. You remember how they looked at me? 20:06 How they talked about me. ELIZA: Oh, Aristide! Your family loved you! 20:11 They prayed for your return every day you were gone! Your father only stopped talking about you 20:16 when his final breath was stolen from him. DRAYDEN: Then why did he push me away? Why did you all push me away? 20:23 ELIZA: It wasn't like that, Aristide! DRAYDEN: My name is Drayden. ELIZA: Please, listen- DRAYDEN: No, I'm done listening! 20:30 And I'm done talking. Tonight, Lord Borgiani is going to die. 20:35 ELIZA: Arist- (sighs) Drayden, please listen to me. 20:41 The Lord Borgiani that killed your parents is dead. A few weeks after the murder, he was struck ill, 20:47 His eldest son, Alessio has been in charge ever since. DRAYDEN: Then he will pay for his father's debts. 20:53 LUCANIS: I am afraid that is impossible. ELIZA: (gasps) Oh! (BLADE CLANGS) DRAYDEN: If you've come to finish the job, 20:58 you'll find that I'm not as easy to kill as an aging mother and father blindsided in their sleep! 21:04 NADIA: And to get to them, you'll have to go through me. LUCANIS: I am not here for you. DRAYDEN: Then you've got about two seconds 21:10 to tell me what you're doing in my home. LUCANIS: Lord Alessio Borgiani is dead. 21:15 DRAYDEN: And why should I take your word for it? LUCANIS: Because I just killed him. NADIA: I'm sorry, but can we just take a moment 21:21 to process all of this? DRAYDEN: If he doesn't start talking, he's going to process my sword through his heart! 21:27 LUCANIS: You must be Drayden. DRAYDEN: You know my name. How? LUCANIS: Your father liked to talk about you. 21:34 It made him happy. DRAYDEN: You knew my father? LUCANIS: He hired me for protection when he looked into the anomalies. 21:39 DRAYDEN: You're a Crow! LUCANIS: Mmm, tell me more. DRAYDEN: Perfect posture. Well-tailored coat. 21:46 And not a one of us heard so much as a step from your perfectly-cobbled boots. LUCANIS: Sharp, just like he said you were. 21:53 (BLADES WHOOSHING) NADIA: Now that we're all acquainted, can we get back to the part about you killing the new Lord? 21:59 LUCANIS: You are not the only family the Borgianis crossed. I was hired, and now he is dead. 22:04 DRAYDEN: But you still haven't explained why you're here! LUCANIS: There were complications. NADIA: Define complications? (MUSIC) 22:11 LUCANIS: I am not sure I can explain what happened. (HORNS SOUNDING) (LUCANIS GROWLING) 22:17 ELIZA: What was that? LUCANIS: (growls) They must have followed me. NADIA: Who? 22:22 LUCANIS: The Lord's protectors. I thought the house was empty, so I came here in case I had to make a stop. DRAYDEN: Are you telling me that House Borgiani is here? 22:29 Come to kill you? LUCANIS: That is exactly what I am saying! DRAYDEN: Oh, then we will make that stand together. 22:35 They came for my house once. I am not letting it happen again. NADIA: How many will there be? 22:41 LUCANIS: A dozen. Maybe two. NADIA: (groans) I don't like those odds. DRAYDEN: The odds are not as they appear, Nadia. 22:47 Eliza, what about the passages? ELIZA: It's still working. DRAYDEN: And what of Ophelia, is she...? ELIZA: (laughing) She would be so happy to see you. 22:54 NADIA: Who's Ophelia? DRAYDEN: Not now. And you? LUCANIS: The name's Lucanis. Lucanis Dellamorte. 22:59 DRAYDEN: Well, Lucanis. I don't suppose you're available for hire? LUCANIS: For your father, I will do this one for free. 23:06 (GLASS SHATTERS) ELIZA: Oh! (FOOTSTEPS POUNDING) 23:12 LILLEMAR: Stop! Inside that manor is the man who killed your Lord! 23:19 The man who killed my father! If you are virtuous men and have even the slightest loyalty to your oath, 23:27 you will take my command and bring me his head! (SOLDIERS SHOUTING) Now get in there and avenge my father! 23:36 Avenge House Borgiani! (DISTANT SHOUTS) (FOOTSTEPS) 23:41 LILLEMAR: Do you have any idea who did this? CAPTAIN: Afraid not, my lady. LILLEMAR: My father was a good man! Who would want this? 23:48 CAPTAIN: Good men are often seen as weak men and are targeted by the wills of evil men, 23:54 or as targets for their revenge. LILLEMAR: What is that supposed to mean? CAPTAIN: Nothing, my lady. LILLEMAR: Captain? 23:59 CAPTAIN: Do you know why this manor is empty? LILLEMAR: Because House Amato took up arms against the throne. CAPTAIN: Hmm, a story of convenience. 24:06 LILLEMAR: What? What are you saying? CAPTAIN: I'm saying that sometimes things are not as they seem. And history has a way of ensnaring the present. 24:13 But worry not. (THUNDER CLAPPING) Soon, your father's killer will be dead and the future will be yours. 24:19 (WIND WHISTLING) (RAIN POURING) LILLEMAR: It's too quiet. 24:24 CAPTAIN: Quiet? LILLEMAR: Why can't we hear the men? (RAIN POURING) (DOOR CREAKING) (PEOPLE GASPING) 24:31 (DISTANT SOUNDS OF FIGHTING) (THUNDER BOOMING) 24:36 LONE SOLDIER: Retreat! Retreat! Retreat! (MUSIC) CAPTAIN: Company, company! Status, Soldier, halt! 24:45 LONE SOLDIER: Retreat, retreat! (sobs) Retreat! CAPTAIN: Soldier! Calm down. Hey! (SOLDIER SOBBING) 24:53 LONE SOLDIER: Ghosts! There are ghosts in there! They come from the shadows, they- 24:58 CAPTAIN: Steel yourself! Where is the rest of first squad? Where are the men? 25:04 LONE SOLDIER: They're dead! They're all dead! (sobs) CAPTAIN: (growls) Stay here, my lady. 25:10 Lieutenants, with me! And you, on your feet, coward! 25:16 LONE SOLDIER: Please, don't make me go back in there, it's haunted! The ghosts, they- 25:22 CAPTAIN: There is no ghost, it's a man! Do you understand that? One man! 25:27 (scoffs) If you think the parlor tricks of a Crow are going to scare us, you're in for a long night, assassin! 25:34 Let's go! LILLEMAR: Captain! CAPTAIN: Wait here, my lady. (FIRE CRACKLING) 25:40 LUCANIS: We have cut through their ranks, but now they will send in their lieutenants. They will be tougher. 25:46 ELIZA: If I could get a few to follow me to the attic, I'll have a nice surprise waiting for them. 25:52 ELIZA: Good. You and Nadia go upstairs and set the trap. Drayden, what else can you tell me about the manor? 25:57 DRAYDEN: There's another network of passages running between the walls. They'll never see us coming. LUCANIS: Then we will go there and pick them off one 26:04 at a time. We'll use garrotes to keep it quiet. DRAYDEN: Good plan. And if anything goes wrong, 26:09 we all regroup down here in the grand library. ELIZA: Oh, your father would be so proud of you if he could see you right now. 26:16 DRAYDEN: Thanks. NADIA: Remember, we all survive. DRAYDEN: Okay, let's get to it. I'll see you on the 26:23 other side. NADIA: Hey, Drayden? DRAYDEN: Yeah? NADIA: This library, it's palatial. You really are a 26:30 book, huh? DRAYDEN: (laughs) Nadia? NADIA: Yeah? 26:36 DRAYDEN: I'm sorry we got sidetracked again. If you want to leave, I can show you a secret exit. NADIA: Hey, stop it. I'm not going anywhere. 26:44 We're doing this together, okay? DRAYDEN: Okay. LUCANIS: (coughs) We are losing time. DRAYDEN: Right, sorry. ELIZA: Nadia, follow me. 26:51 NADIA: So, who is Ophelia? ELIZA: It's not important. NADIA: Yeah, but- ELIZA: Best not to ask too many questions, dear. 26:59 DRAYDEN: This way Lucanis, the entrance is behind that shelf. (FOOTSTEPS) Will you pull the gauntlet on that suit of armor? 27:06 LUCANIS: This one? DRAYDEN: Yep. (METAL SCREECHING) 27:11 Now I am going to wind the dial of this clock. (GEARS WINDING) (CLOCK TICKING) 27:17 And...Presto! (DOOR SQUEAKING) In we go. 27:23 (MUSIC) LONE SOLDIER: (whimpers) Ghosts! 27:28 Ghosts everywhere! (pants) (FOOTSTEPS) (SOLDIER WHIMPERING) CAPTAIN: (growls) Quiet, soldier. Circle around that dining table and check behind that nook. 27:36 LONE SOLDIER: But sir, the ghosts! CAPTAIN: There are no bloody ghosts! (SOLDIER YELPING) (OBJECT SHATTERING) 27:44 CAPTAIN: Enough games, Crow! Step out of the shadows and fight me like a man! 27:51 Go on then, coward! Look behind it. LONE SOLDIER: But sir! CAPTAIN: Now! (SOLDIER SOBBING) 27:57 (SOLDIER BREATHING RAPIDLY) LONE SOLDIER: It's so dark! CAPTAIN: Speak again, I'll kill you myself. 28:04 (SOFT FOOTSTEPS) (MUFFLED GRUNT) (OBJECTS CLATTERING) 28:12 CAPTAIN: Soldier? Hello? Damn it, go check on him! 28:18 (RAPID FOOTSTEPS) LIEUTENANT ONE: Captain, there's no one here! He's gone! CAPTAIN: What do you mean, he's gone? 28:23 LIEUTENANT ONE: There's nothing there, just an empty nook. CAPTAIN: Well, he had to go somewhere! LIEUTENANT ONE: Sorry, sir. I- 28:29 (OMINOUS BANGING) (CREAKING) CAPTAIN: Maker, now what? LIEUTENANT ONE: Sir, maybe there are gho- CAPTAIN: Don't you dare say it. Find the stairs, now! 28:36 (FOOTSTEPS) (PERSON CHOKING) CAPTAIN: (muffled) One old house (muffled) and you all turn into a bunch of damn cowards. 28:43 What do you mean (indistinct)? (PERSON CHOKING) LUCANIS: Not like that. You are torturing him for no reason. 28:48 Bend your wrists like this. DRAYDEN: Oh, like this? LUCANIS: Yes. Swift and clean. 28:54 (BONES CRACKING) (PERSON CHOKING) No reason to be barbaric. DRAYDEN: Got it. Sorry. LUCANIS: We all learn. Where to next? 29:00 DRAYDEN: Up there at the pillar, head left. LUCANIS: You know these tunnels well. DRAYDEN: I loved them when I was a kid. 29:06 Anytime I felt like I needed to escape, I'd come here, wander their mazes, feel invisible. 29:12 LUCANIS: You would have made a good Crow, Drayden. DRAYDEN: Now I have to ask, how do you know that name and not my given, Aristide? 29:19 LUCANIS: I know them both. Your father told me he had many regrets. He felt he failed you. 29:26 DRAYDEN: Failed me? LUCANIS: I know you want answers, but I do not have them. I just know he thought about you a lot. 29:33 (NADIA SCREAMING) DRAYDEN: Nadia! Come on. (FOOTSTEPS) 29:40 (FLOOR CREAKING) 29:46 LIEUTENANT TWO: We heard you scream! We know you are up here in the attic! 29:53 Why don't you come on out and we promise to go easy on you? 29:59 (NADIA GRUNTING) (THUD) (NADIA GRUNTS) LIEUTENANT THREE: Over there. LIEUTENANT TWO: Go! (NADIA GRUNTS) (FOOTSTEPS) 30:06 (OBJECT THUDS) NADIA: Wrong again, over here! LIEUTENANT THREE: Over there! (RAPID FOOTSTEPS) (FLOOR CREAKING) 30:15 LIEUTENANT TWO: You are testing my patience! ELIZA: (whispering) Just stay with me until Ophelia's had a chance to meet you. 30:22 NADIA: Now can you please just tell me who is a Oph- (ELIZA WHISTLES) LIEUTENANT THREE: Oh, are we whistling now? (whistles) 30:30 (DOG BARKING AND GROWLING) LIEUTENANT ONE: What the hell is that? LIEUTENANT THREE: Oh shit! (DOG BARKING) (LIEUTENANTS SCREAMING) (FLESH TEARING) 30:38 (FLESH SQUELCHING) 30:44 ELIZA: (laughing) That a girl, Ophelia! Whoo! NADIA: That's Ophelia? (DOG BARKING) ELIZA: Lord Amato got her as a pup when Drayden was little, 30:52 right after a bandit tried to snatch him. (ELIZA LAUGHING) (DOG WHIMPERING) 30:58 That's a good girl! Oh yes, you're such a good girl! 31:03 (DOG HAPPILY PANTING) ELIZA: Nadia, hold out your hand. NADIA: Uh- ELIZA: Oh, trust me. It's fine. 31:10 If she thought you were a danger to me, your hand would already be gone. (DOG GROWLING) NADIA: Okay then. Hi there, puppy! 31:19 (NADIA GIGGLES) (DOG GROWLING) DRAYDEN: Easy, it's just us. We heard the screams. 31:25 NADIA: Yeah, I'm sure everyone heard them. This Mabari you got packs a hell of a bite! 31:31 DRAYDEN: (gasps) Ophelia, hi girl! I missed you so much! Come here, oh such a good- 31:38 LUCANIS: (yawns) Do you have any coffee? Something strong? DRAYDEN: No time for that yet. We still have a couple soldiers left, and that captain- 31:45 (DOG GROWLS) NADIA: (gasps) Guys! CAPTAIN: Quiet girl, or taste my steel. (NADIA GROANS) 31:51 That's right, Crow. You're not the only one who knows how to sneak around. (DOG BARKING) DRAYDEN: You let her go! 31:57 NADIA: You just had to mention the captain, didn't you Drayden? CAPTAIN: Everyone downstairs now, or I'll spill her blood! 32:04 Now! (FLOOR CREAKING) (FOOTSTEPS) LUCANIS: That voice... 32:10 (FOOTSTEPS THUDDING) (HORN SOUNDING) 32:16 CAPTAIN: My lady, this one is your assassin, an Antivan Crow. 32:22 And this, this is the source of your trouble! CAPTAIN: Heir to House Amato and their accomplices! 32:30 They are the ones who have orchestrated tonight's plot. DRAYDEN: You lying scum! LILLEMAR: Silence. 32:37 Stand that one up. The last scion. NADIA: If you lay a finger on them- 32:42 LILLEMAR: Soldier. (NADIA GRUNTS) DRAYDEN: Leave her alone! If you've come to finish the job on my family, then kill me. 32:50 But leave them out of this. LILLEMAR: Finish the job on your family? It is you who has killed my father! 32:56 Your kin who rose up against the monarch! DRAYDEN: Lies! LILLEMAR: You dare to challenge my word 33:01 as my father's body still cools from this world? ELIZA: Why don't you ask your captain there the truth, my lady? Because I certainly recognize him, 33:09 my face bears the mark of his handy work. LILLEMAR: Captain, what's she talking about? 33:16 CAPTAIN: (stutters) It's not important. And as I told you before, tonight is about the future. LILLEMAR: Captain... 33:21 ELIZA: Go on, tell your lady the truth. Let her know what kind of a line she really comes from! 33:26 CAPTAIN: Oh, that's it! I'm going to cleave your tongue- LILLEMAR: Captain! You will tell me now, or join them. 33:33 (CAPTAIN GROWLS) CAPTAIN: Fine! (BLADE CLANGING) 33:39 While your father was indeed a good man, your grandfather, well, he was not. 33:46 He ordered the deaths of Lord and Lady Amato. LILLEMAR: What? DRAYDEN: Your grandfather was pitting 33:51 the families against each other, so house Borgiani could get rich. My father was going to expose him- 33:57 LILLEMAR: No! No, no! You lie! My family would never! House Amato took up arms against the throne. 34:03 CAPTAIN: Don't be so naive, child! Everyone knows the monarchy has no real power. 34:09 LILLEMAR: But- CAPTAIN: Your father knew too, but he didn't have the stomach for those choices. 34:15 It was his guilt that organized all those grand feasts, his attempts to make amends. 34:23 LILLEMAR: While it's disconcerting to learn about my grandfather's deeds, it still gives you no right to murder my father. 34:31 DRAYDEN: I had nothing to do with that! ELIZA: It's true, they've been gone for years. LILLEMAR: Well, someone had my father killed 34:37 and I will have their head! CAPTAIN: My lady, might I suggest- LUCANIS: Oh, no! DRAYDEN: Lucanis, what is it? 34:44 (FOOTSTEPS) LUCANIS: I normally would not cross a client, but considering the circumstances, 34:52 it was him, the captain. LILLEMAR: (gasps) What? DRAYDEN: What? LUCANIS: I knew I recognized his voice. 34:58 I never saw his face, but that voice, he hired me to kill the Lord! 35:03 CAPTAIN: (scoffs) Please, this is absurd! LILLEMAR: Captain...? CAPTAIN: My lady, (stammers) I would never, 35:10 I-I could never! My loyalty is to- (CAPTAIN GROWLS) 35:17 LILLEMAR: You best sheath your blade. CAPTAIN: Surrender my blade to the likes of you? Never! 35:23 And as for your father? Well, he was a weak, sniveling coward! 35:29 If only he possessed a fraction of the spine your grandfather had! House Borgiani could have taken 35:36 over all of Antiva, but no! LILLEMAR: Guards! (SWORDS UNSHEATHING) (GUARDS ROARING) 35:41 (BLADES CLASHING) (PEOPLE GRUNTING) CAPTAIN: (laughs) Weakling! Your father, he tried to undo everything we did. 35:51 But with him gone, (grunts) it could have paved the way for a real leader to take the reins! 35:56 (FIGHTING CONTINUES) For he had no real heir, just you. A child and a girl! 36:04 No one would've listened to you! The House would've fallen into chaos! Borgiani's name threatened, 36:11 everyone would've called for someone to step in and save it from collapse! Someone (grunts) strong, someone like- 36:17 DRAYDEN: Like you. You did all of this to seize power? CAPTAIN: Oh, and it would've worked if this idiot Crow 36:24 wouldn't have killed the Lord in front of an entire wedding! LILLEMAR: Guards, seize him! CAPTAIN: Stay back, I'm warning you! 36:31 LILLEMAR: Actually, I've changed my mind. Guards, kill the captain! 36:37 (GUARDS YELLING) (SWORDS CLANGING) (BLADE SQUELCHING) 36:42 (PEOPLE GASPING) (CAPTAIN GURGLING AND CHOKING) That was for my father, you traitor. 36:49 As for you, heir to House Amato. I propose our families agree to peace. 36:56 I know my words will not bring back your parents, but I am truly sorry for your loss. 37:02 And as long as I rule House Borgiani, I can promise you nothing like that will ever happen again. 37:11 DRAYDEN: I will accept peace, on one condition. LILLEMAR: Name it. DRAYDEN: Eliza is provided for, for the rest of her days. 37:18 LILLEMAR: Done. ELIZA: Drayden... DRAYDEN: Eliza, you are the only family I have left- 37:24 CAPTAIN: For the true Lord Borgiani! (WOMAN GASPING) (PEOPLE SCREAMING) 37:29 DRAYDEN: Lillemar, watch out! (DRAYDEN GROANS) (PEOPLE SCREAMING) NADIA: Drayden! (PEOPLE GASPING) ELIZA: (sobbing) Oh, no, no, no, no! 37:35 (PEOPLE GASPING) CAPTAIN: Yes, yes! A death for a death! 37:40 LILLEMAR: I've had enough of you, Captain! (LILLEMAR GRUNTS) (FLESH SQUELCHES) 37:46 LUCANIS: Decapitation is so messy. (DRAYDEN CHOKING AND COUGHING) 37:52 ELIZA: Oh no, no, no! (DRAYDEN GASPING) DRAYDEN: Nadia, I don't feel so good! 37:57 (DRAYDEN COLLAPSES) NADIA: I got you! ELIZA: (sobs) Oh, oh my dear Drayden... NADIA: Wake up, Drayden! Wake up, Drayden! 38:05 Drayden! Drayden!
