They knew what they were looking for.

They cleaned the place out.

Took it all to St. Paul's.

There are over a thousand stairs in the Cradle.

Turn upon turn.

But eventually they lead to the crypt beneath St. Paul's.

Be careful, child.

Whatever it is they are doing in that church

has nothing to do with God.

Hold her steady for a second.

Not bad.

You've done this before?

Yeah. A bit.

Good. You can take her in.

Take her in? Where?

You are cleared for landing,

Jenny Haniver. Dock seven.

Welcome to Airhaven.

What are they saying?

Captain Khora was just offering to buy you dinner.

Weren't you, Captain?

Sure. Why not?

Magnetic resonance is climbing,

holding at full capacity.

All systems are active.

She's ready.

It will all be for nothing unless we act now.

London must turn east.

New bearing confirmed, 90 degrees.

Coordinates set: 51 degrees north

by 71 degrees east.

Why are we altering course?

We're executing the new order, sir.

Whose order?

Windflower.

Wh-Wh-Whoa, what's going on?

They're the Ruh-shan.

The Anti-Traction League of Shan Guo.

This is about my mother, isn't it?

Before she died, Pandora found something.

Something dangerous.

She was afraid of Valentine, of what he might do.

She said, if anything should happen to her,

I was to find you.

That you could stop him.

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

Think hard.

You must remember.

He took something from her.

What? What did he take?

A piece of old tech.

What kind of old tech? I don't know.

She was eight years old. She doesn't remember.

Then perhaps you can help us, Londoner.

Hey! Hey.

Get off me! Get off!

What are they building in that cathedral?

Six months ago,

Valentine started buying up fusion inverter cells

from Scav traders. Wait, wait, wait, wait.

Fusion inverters? You know something?

No, that's...

that's impossible.

He'd have had to have found...

That piece of old tech that Valentine took

from your mother, did it have a symbol on it?

Like...

Like this?

Yes.

Your mother found

a computer core.

The control system of a quantum energy weapon.

Medusa is live.

Go, go, go.

How do we shut it down? You don't.

Well, not without the crash drive.

Anglish, halviti. It's a type of key.

A kill switch that overrides the firing sequence.

Once it's initiated, the weapon would self-destruct.

This key, does London have it?

No, it would be long gone, lost.

Why should we care about those barbarians?

Let Valentine burn every Traction City

from here to the Ice Wastes.

He didn't come here looking for prey.

Valentine has another target in mind.

You dare countermand an order of Lord Mayor?

My God.

Nothing can stand in the face of this.

Not the battle hammers of Arkangel,

not the howitzers of Panzerstadt.

Not even the guns of the Anti-Tractionists.

In the great game of survival, this is checkmate.

London's heading east.

They are moving at speed towards Shan Guo.

I last saw them near the Tannhauser Mountains.

They will have reached the Eastern Plateau by now.

How much time do we have? A few hours, at most.

You mean to go to war?

You cannot ignore

the lessons of the past as if they count for nothing.

There are no lessons to be learned from the past.

History doesn't care.

It is dead.

This is the future.

The man who controls this controls the world.

Is there no end to your ambition?

You control nothing.

Shut this down.

I want all codes and operational controls

handed in to my office immediately.

Didn't you hear me?

I said...

You cling to the past as if it can save you.

You're a relic of a dying age.

A dinosaur.

What does that make you?

Me? I'm the meteor.

Katherine, come on. Come on.

No, no. Katherine.

You can't go back.

I know he's your father.

You have to let him go.

He's not my father.

Not anymore.

They're gonna attack the Shield Wall.

Get word to Governor Kwan.

Hey!

For crying out loud.

Hey! Check the fuel line!

Power's out everywhere.

What is it? What's going on?

It's a diversion.

Fire!

To create chaos.

Fire!

What the hell is that?!

Shrike is here.

Hester Shaw.

No!

Get back! Stop! Don't shoot!

Shrike, get out!

No! Stop shooting!

Anna! Get off!

Listen to me! Stop! Stop!

Shrike, no! Anna, no!

Nils!

Ka se-wo! Pou ya tek! No!

Listen to me, Shrike!

Koyo se!

Get to the Jenny now!

Go! Go!

Hester!

Watch out.

Nils!

Get down!

Everybody, move!

All aviators, evacuate now!

I repeat, evacuate now!

Come on!

This way!

Hester.

No!

No.

Tom! No!

No! Stop!

Stop, Shrike!

Stop. You're gonna kill him.

You will not remember him.

No. I'm the one.

I'm the one you came for.

Let him go.

Let him live.

You are crying.

He hurt you! No.

He can't die.

He can't.

He can't!

He can't.

You...

You...

You love him?

Shrike?

No!

No, Shrike!

This belongs to you.

I release you

from your promise,

Hester Shaw.

Shrike.

Shrike!

Stop it.

The world is changing.

London must now look beyond Municipal Darwinism

and move into a new age.

Tonight, we set a course

for the savage heartland

of the Anti-Traction League.

The Shield Wall of Shan Guo and the lands beyond

will become our new hunting ground.

For centuries, Traction Cities

have attempted to breach the wall.

Their rotting carcasses lie at its base.

But that will not be our fate.

Tonight, London

is going to demonstrate its new power,

a power that will sweep all before it.

Tonight, we take the fight

to Shan Guo.

Hold your formation

on approach, Jenny Haniver.

Welcome home, Windflower.

Windflower?

I was once kept as a slave on the Ice City of Arkangel.

I vowed never to be owned by another again.

I made my friends swear an oath.

"When this body is done,

"throw my ashes to the wind.

"I can face anything, even death,

as long as my spirit is free."

The Allied Fleet,

the great defenders of the East.

Governor Kwan is waiting.

London is fast approaching.

Governor...

launch the fleet.

We cannot wait. What are you suggesting?

A preemptive strike?

Destroy Medusa before it destroys us.

No, no, no. You-you... you can't do that.

What choice do we have?

We didn't start this, but we will finish it.

Hang on a minute, all right?

Listen to me. There has to be another way.

There are thousands of innocent people on that city.

They don't deserve to die.

No, they do not.

Nor do we seek to harm the innocent.

Understand, life is precious to the Shan Guonese.

So believe me when I say this:

If there was another way, I would take it.

No. It's my home.

Summon Fleet Command.

We strike first.

Tom.

What's happening?

Go, go, go, go, go, go!

Entering enemy kill zone

in six minutes and 39 seconds.

Raise it up.

We target the searchlights.

Take out their forward defenses.

London's gun turrets are deadly.

Don't underestimate them.

We'll have to destroy

all fixed artillery to access the cathedral.

Take them out. Hit them hard and fast.

Get them into the air.

Now!

Tom!

Tom! Wait!

London!

What have they done?

Confirm target coordinates. Coordinates confirmed.

Target is locked.

Aso luman sala ta.

Aso luman sala ta...

Tom!

Initiate firing sequence.

Tom!

I have it.

Is that...?

Where did you get this?

Go dark.

They're preparing to fire.

Sound the alarm.

Everybody off the wall!

Run!

Get inside now!

We need to find Anna.

Now, Twix.

London! London! London!

London! London! London! London!

Hit them again. Recharging accumulators.

They're coming through!

Anna!

We have to get to London! Are you crazy?!

They're gonna fire that weapon again!

Not if we shut it down.

The crash drive.

My mother gave it to me.

Come on, we have to go.

They destroyed the Allied Fleet.

They didn't destroy us.

Nils, you lead.

Yasmina, stay on his wing.

Khora.

We're gonna be under heavy fire.

I'll need you to clear a path for me.

Anna. Go.

Where's Tom?

Tom?

Tom?

You sure you want to do this?

Once we go in, there's no going back.

I have to.

For my mom.

For Pandora.

Let's go.

They're gonna fire again!

Pull up! Pull up!

Recharge!

Khora.

Khora!

Stay low, Windflower.

We'll draw their fire.

Let's do this!

Kaza wo bu yagen!

Anna, leave it to me.

Nils, watch out!

Nils! No!

Toa, cover Yasmina!

I got this one.

We're hit, Anna! We're hit!

Yasmina, take out the last one!

We're going down! Hang on!

Toa!

Toa, come on.

Come on. Come on, get up.

Hey, get up.

Okay.

Hester!

Take this, and stay out of sight

until I give you the signal. What signal?

How will I know? Trust me, you'll know.

I'm not that subtle.

Warning.

Core temperature rising.

Increase the coolant! Recharge!

Over there!

Okay, city boy, take her from here.

What? I got to go.

I'm late for church.

Hey.

Look after her.

Lock target coordinates.

Target is locked.

Wait! Temperatures have to stabilize.

Prepare to fire.

Firing sequence initiated.

Do it, Twix!

Watch out!

Warning.

Core temperature critical.

Deploy system override.

Fire again! One more strike, that wall comes down.

Take cover!

System override initiated.

Firing will commence in 59 seconds.

She's gonna blow!

Firing will commence in 45 seconds.

Firing will commence in 30 seconds.

Come on, come on.

Firing will commence in 15 seconds.

Ten. Nine.

Come on. Eight.

Come on. Come on, come on. Seven. -

Six. Just let go.

Five. Four.

It's over.

Three. Two. Not yet.

Come on.

One.

Firing sequence terminated.

Go.

System overload. Unstable.

Unstable.

Now it's over.

Kate.

Thank God you're safe.

We need to go. How could you?

How many lives have you taken?

And for what?

I did what I had to. This city was dying.

I tried to save it. Stop lying to me.

You didn't do this for any noble cause.

You did it for yourself, for the power that it gave you.

That's not true.

Kate, we have to go.

We have to go now.

Trust me as you once did.

I can save us both.

Save us from what?

The weapon's destroyed. The wall is still standing.

You've failed. Failed?

You really don't know me, do you?

That wall is coming down.

What have you done? Don't go up there.

Katherine!

Let's go, Gench! Roger that.

We must be tethered, boss!

Come in, London Wheelhouse!

London Wheelhouse, do you read me?

Come in, London Wheelhouse!

Tom?

Tom, is that you? Katherine?

What the hell's going on down there?

We're on a collision course.

He's driving the city into the wall.

The brakes are gone. They're dead.

You're gonna have to cut London's engines.

I can't. The controls are shot to hell.

Katherine, I need you to do something.

Are you listening?

You're not going anywhere.

You're not gonna hurt anyone else ever again.

Tom, are you sure about this?

Do it!

I will kill you.

I know you will.

Whatever the world throws at you,

you fight it, claw your way back.

You don't give up.

You are so like me.

Your mother never told you, did she?

But then, I guess she didn't need to, because...

you already knew.

Hester.

You let your guard down.

Is this what you want? You want to die?

Come on, let's finish it.

No.

I'm gonna live.

Hold on!

Come on.

You're history.

Gench!

So, what happens now?

We go where the wind takes us.

See the world.

What do you say?

I'm coming with you.
