[dramatic music playing]

[Heron] Don't do it.

Let go of me.

[grunts]

I'm sorry.

- But we can't let you go. - [Heron] Seraphim.

Don't, brother.

[whooshing]

- [grunts] - You can't trust Cronos.

We can't trust the gods either.

They're not going to toss us into the abyss.

I know, but whatever time I get with her is worth it.

For who? You or her?

Do you think she wants you to die, to cease to exist?

Each minute you have together will be poisoned by those thoughts.

There's still hope for you. For her.

I cannot be redeemed.

Everyone can be redeemed.

That's why Cronos fears us.

He thinks that one of us is the One.

You're a fool, brother.

There is no "One."

You're wrong.

But you have to turn inward.

Stop fighting yourself

if you truly wish to be reunited with her.

Trust me, brother.

[dramatic music playing]

[Hera] We have a plan.

[choir vocalizing]

[Hera] There is no need for carnage.

Let us settle this in the old way,

with a battle of champions.

Our two best versus your two best.

If our champions fall,

we will give you the torch you seek.

But if our champions succeed, you withdraw.

Why would I agree to that?

Because you'll be fighting us.

You can't be serious.

We are.

I will not make a mockery of the ways of old

by fighting mere demigods.

You can't afford not to.

Your followers may think the truth, that you're afraid.

You think you're so clever, don't you, bastard?

You think you can lure me into your ploy?

Whatever your plan is, it won't work.

But I will accept your challenge,

and I'll tell you why.

I want to look into your father's eyes before I kill him

and tell him what great pleasure I took

in dismembering his son.

That's the price for his betrayal.

And you, mongrel.

I want you to take one last look at your priestess here.

Thanks to you, from this moment on,

she will experience nothing but pain.

The pain of seeing you cut down before her very eyes,

of seeing you tossed into the abyss.

And then I'm gonna toss her in too.

- Right after you. - Don't listen to him!

[whooshing]

[Cronos] Do you swear to do as you promised?

Will you hand over the torch when they fall?

I will honor this challenge and its terms,

as will my brothers and sisters.

Then before all those here who stand witness,

today, we evoke the ways of old

and will honor the will of the Fates.

Typhon and I will meet you for this challenge of champions

at the Meadows of the Fallen before us.

That is, if you're still willing to come down here and fight.

Then go prepare yourselves!

It's not every day you face certain death.

Heron.

A word.

There's something I must tell you.

I want to make sure you're not doing this because

you know that you're not long for this world.

What do you mean?

I know that the sands of your hourglass are running dry.

[exhales] I know because...

I cut your thread.

I wanted to hurt Zeus.

I wanted him to pay for stripping Persephone away from me.

I'm very sorry for what I did.

The Fates can weave it back in.

You can have a full life ahead of you

filled with love and happiness.

One many would envy.

The choice is yours.

If you were to change your mind,

I would understand.

I've already volunteered to take your place.

No.

Whether I'm long for this world or not, I have to do this.

I know that much is true.

The gods chose well when they chose you.

- Then why do you look so sad? - I know how this ends.

We have a plan.

Will you abide by it?

You know I'm Amazonian. That...

that we could never...

I know.

My mother broke her Amazonian vow when she married my father.

She was miserable with him.

Cursed, some say, for not staying true to her oath.

At least that's what I was told.

Sometimes... it's easier believing in a curse...

than being honest about how you feel.

I would never ask you to break your vow.

I know.

And I never would.

Not even for you.

But...

I do love you.

[solemn music rises]

Now, if I may... [exhales]

...I would like to be your shield-bearer.

It'd be an honor.

[dramatic music plays]

[roars]

There's something I need to tell you.

Zeus asked me to bring you into the fold

to try and get you to lay down your sword, but the truth is

I couldn't muster more than a half-hearted attempt.

Every time I saw you,

all I could see was the face of the man who cut down our mother.

I don't blame you. I would have done the same.

- You don't know that. - I do.

Well, if I fall, I want you to have my sword.

No, I can't accept it.

[Heron] Why?

When I tried to kill you on that ship,

I knew you were my brother,

and I still tried to strike you down

with that very sword.

All the more reason for you to have it.

It'll be a reminder of how far we've come.

May the Fates smile down on us.

I, Archon Alexia, will serve as shield-bearer to Heron,

son of Zeus,

and Seraphim,

bearer of giants' blood,

according to the laws of our forefathers.

[Evios] As will I.

You two aren't much of a bet, but...

for the first time in a long time,

I like the odds.

[thudding]

We Titans bear no shields,

nor do we need others to stand beside us.

I know you'll guard this with your life,

but a little magic never hurts.

You first, bastard.

[grunts, screams]

[screams]

Let loose.

[Seraphim] Heron!

[grunts]

[grunts]

[roars]

Enough.

[wind howling]

[grunting]

[Cronos] I'll show you the difference between a Titan and a demigod.

[groans]

Between a Titan and an Olympian.

[both panting]

[Cronos] Yield!

[exhales] No.

[creature growls]

[roars]

[both grunting]

- [Cronos] Surrender! - [both panting]

We won't survive fighting them both.

[panting] We need more time.

Any ideas?

[Heron panting] Maybe.

[panting]

Remember what I said. [grunts]

[creature growls]

Surrender.

[Heron grunts]

[Zeus] This is how you show the world who you really are.

- [groans] - [Zeus] Turn inward.

[Heron panting]

[Heron] We have a plan.

[Alexia] Will you abide by it?

[panting]

[grunts] Huh?

[snorts]

[Heron] We all stand in death's shadow.

And in that moment...

a terrible fear sets in.

[somber music playing]

[Heron] The fear that all the love we have...

will be lost.

But then...

we realize...

[electricity crackles]

...that we take that love with us.

All the love given...

returns to the love that made them.

[electricity crackles]

[Heron] There's the land of the living and the Underworld.

[growls]

[Heron] And the bridge...

is love.

[roars]

[Heron] Out of every hundred men in battle, ten should not be there.

- [roars] - [Heron] Another 80 are mere targets.

Only nine are real fighters, and we are lucky to have them.

But one...

one is a warrior.

And it is he who will bring the others home.

[loud banging]

Finish this, brother.

[screams]

[explosions booming]

Brother.

By what magic is this possible?

You were the magician, Cronos.

When you agreed to fight Heron and Seraphim,

you gave us the diversion we needed.

Your pride was your Achilles' heel.

You knew you were being drawn into a ploy,

and yet, you couldn't help yourself.

Demeter stole the bident

right out from underneath your noses,

switching it with the one Hera had the cyclops Brontes forge.

Heron!

[Zeus] You thought you could crush whatever we came up with.

- But you were wrong. - [roaring]

[Zeus] Hermes traveled to the Underworld with the real bident

to free Hades and I.

But he needed more time.

You never imagined someone would do what Heron did.

That someone would die for something greater than themselves.

That he would give up his life.

[rumbling]

- [thudding] - [gasps]

Will you stand by my side, brother?

[explosion booms]

What was that?

If I had to guess,

I'd say it was Heron.

[electricity crackles]

In your arrogance to prove you could cheat prophecy,

you ended up fulfilling it.

Yield while you still can.

It's over!

If this is how it ends, then so be it.

[shouts]

- [electricity crackling] - [explosions booming]

[grunts, shouts]

[grunts]

[shudders]

Our fates are bound. [shouting]

[shouting]

The greater the will... the greater the strike! [shouts]

[gasps]

[grunts]

[grunting]

[electricity crackles]

[Zeus] And the one who was prophesied

brought peace to both the heavens and Earth.

Some of the other Titans surrendered.

While still others tried to flee,

but they did not succeed.

We swore to never forget Heron and Seraphim.

From this day forth, the name Heron will mean hero.

While his brother Seraphim will forever be remembered as the One.

[crowd applauding]

And while many were lost,

some would say this terrible struggle was needed.

For the forest does not grow until the underbrush has burned.

As painful as it is to admit, life requires death.

That is why those that made the ultimate sacrifice

will be honored amongst the stars,

where we will always see them.

And from this day forth,

mortals will carry the spark these gods embodied.

The desire to build and tinker.

The desire for glory and greatness.

The desire for our kindred soul.

And most importantly,

a sense of duty to that which is just.

[music fades out]

[rustling]

[solemn music rises]

[chuckles] You were right.

Strength in this life,

happiness in the next.

[chuckles]

I have a surprise for you.

[gasps] Please forgive me, Mother.

There is nothing to forgive...

my son.

[uplifting music playing]

My sons,

the Fates are just, after all.
