[Medina del Campo.]

- Is there something else?
- Rest, Your Highness.

You know most of the kingdom's
affairs go well without much effort.

It's heartwarming that Castile has
the health that God denies its queen.

You'll recover soon.
I went through the same fevers.

I was able to leave my bed two days ago.

The remedies that worked for your
husband will surely work for you too.

I'm only sure about being in God's hands

not these remedies.

Then ease your concern, Your Majesty.

God knows you and your kingdom's
health is one and the same thing.

All the churches in Castile are
praying daily for your recovery.

It would be better to stop
soliciting God about my body...

and to start begging Him for my soul.

I'm dying.

And we won't do this kingdom
any good by trying to deny it.

I must get ready to meet the Lord.

But first, I must be sure everything
is taken care of here on earth.

There is no time for regrets.

There is a lot of work to do...

and little means to fulfill it all.

Only with your help...

would I be able to do it.

So she is that bad.

No doubt. The queen's health is
weakening every day that passes.

Lord of Belmonte, I was
eagerly expecting your arrival.

Bad news from Flanders
arrived, preceding you.

Is it something I don't know?

That's what I want to know.

Is it true that Philip beats my
daughter, as Fuensalida says?

I'm sure he didn't act like he...

He beat Castile's future queen!

You have a right to be angry, my lord...

but you must know that the
princess can be as brave as a lioness.

What kind of an excuse is that for keeping

our grandson Charles from coming here?

In order to prevent that, the
prince will use any excuse.

I told that to Fuensalida.

Does he think he needs
hostages to claim Castile's crown?

On the contrary.

He is convinced that by being
married to your daughter...

he is entitled to the crown.

For the moment.
I've written letters in hard terms.

It's better for him to listen my warnings.

When will they arrive to Castile?

That's the reason for my presence here.

To inform you that a delay is possible.

For what reason? Isn't it clear
how urgent it is for them to be here?

My lord, once again, the princess
seems to be unwilling to come.

That's what the archduke says.

No.

Philip is now thinking
of coming by himself.

Without Juana, he won't be welcome.

Get some rest, Juan Manuel.
There will be time to talk about this.

You are a loyal man.

We appreciate the service to our
princess in such an ungrateful court.

Belmonte.

I'm afraid that Fuensalida's
letters and your own words...

are strengthened in your
will to annoy our kings.

I'm not suggesting that
you're lying. Just that perhaps...

you're not telling the entire story.

You have reasons.

What's Juana's state of mind?

Didn't she regain her sanity
now that she's with her husband?

Is she still mentally ill?

She is mad, Don Gonzalo.

She is getting worse. And
everyone around her can see that.

Seeing someone who is in the
line of succession in such a state...

means we're very likely to see the
crown of Castile in a traitor's hands.

Don't worry, our kings are aware
of the archduke's pretension.

Castile won't suffer such infamy.

It's a great relief to hear that from you.

But... how long has Juana not been eating?

I don't know!

Do you blame me for that too?

She doesn't want to sleep.
She doesn't want to wash herself.

She acts like an animal
when you least expect it.

- And it's all my fault!
- She is your wife.

She needs to be taken care of.

Not to be locked up and abandoned.

Read, Sister.

Read about the severity of her delusions
just during your stay in Mechelen.

Instead of taking care of her,
you're writing about her illness.

There are many who think I'm not
the good husband I'm supposed to be.

They will all stay silent
as the truth emerges.

First of all, the Catholic Kings. Then you.

- Sir...
- What?

The archduchess.

I'll go.

Juana is mad.
It's impossible for her to rule.

Someone must do it in her name.

- Her husband?
- Who else?

He won't do it without
the courts' blessing.

The nobles of Castile form
a thick chain in which you

are the most important shackle.

Your support would bring
the support of many more.

What would I gain with that?

Recovering the position your father had

that was unfairly taken from you.

Castile will never accept a
foreign king. Tell Philip that.

Do you prefer to be ruled by the Aragonese?

Ferdinand will be king of Castile only
while the queen is alive. I assure you.

He is as foreign as the Burgundian.

Tell Philip that he'll only
be king if Juana is queen.

That's the law in Castile.

That's impossible.

Juana is mad. Didn't you hear me?

Demonstrating that Juana is unsuited
to rule will only strengthen Ferdinand.

It's convenient to everyone

if Juana appears capable
of reclaiming her land.

Yes.

But once she is crowned, Juana
will need help rule the kingdom.

She'll find that in her husband.

Or her dad.

Where will you find more benefit?

You promise gains you cannot assure.

Besides...

if you say the queen will restore the
patrimony she handed to the nobles...

then we'll listen to her
offerings before taking a side.

How could you approve such an atrocity?

Ten days have passed since my list visit.

She is more dead than alive.

That's because of her
madness and stubbornness.

You idiot! If you lack humanity

then perhaps your
ambition can save your wife.

If the princess dies, what would happen?

Perhaps nothing. But as long our son...

Do you expect Isabel to make
you regent in her testament?

Your naivety only rivals your cruelty.

If we can't educate our grandson Charles...

we would lose the best stone to
build the future of our kingdoms.

I know. Again, only Juana is left.

But, since her sanity is in question

don't you fear her
husband's ambition like I do?

Nothing can disturb my state of mind now.

But I am sure about you.

Juana was proclaimed by the courts.

Advise her, always guide her steps.

Protect our crown.

Your Majesty, what if that's not enough?

It will be.

You'll fulfill our dream.

In the end, our kingdoms will be one.

You know that's not the
only way to achieve that.

We must respect the law.

That's the key to achieve it.

My lady.

What did you do?

I'll save you.

For our son, I do it.

Come in.

Declaring your wife
'unsuited' would only...

enhance the interests of the
Aragonese, rather than your own.

That's why you should destroy
the record of Her Majesty's madness.

No one should see it.

Know that in order to be king

you need your wife to be crowned queen.

Which implies that she must
be regarded sane by everyone.

Ride your horse without stopping
and deliver this to the prince.

And only him.

Follow my orders, and
you'll be greatly rewarded.

Sister...

try to restore yourself.

Don't do it for you...

but for your children...

and the people who care about you.

I won't face the Lord while
having unpaid debts over my soul.

I need you to solve that.

I'd do whatever you ask me, my lady.

Make a record of all of my
debts, and satisfy the people I owe.

Dispose of my patrimony for that.

Sell whatever you need
to. Despite doing so...

I know it won't be enough.

I'm sure that some will be condemned.

I'll revoke titles and privileges

so that the crown can cover
the cost of what I'm asking for.

Beatriz...

come here too.

My most loyal friends...

you won't suffer in any way.

I'll ratify the marquisate
that I gave to you.

Money and marquisates are worthless now.

You are contributing to
your illness by talking like this.

Why are we still fighting when
you've already lost all hope?

I have to leave without
any weight on my soul.

Excuse her, my lady.

Will you fulfill what I'm asking you for?

I swear with my life, Your Majesty.

Now go with your wife...

her reproaches are justified.

Being close to death makes you selfish.

- We have more daughters, Chacon.
- Juana is the princess of Asturias

and she has good offspring too.

Do you intend to deny their
rightful inheritance of the throne?

Let's name Mary as our successor.
That way we'll bond with Portugal.

The emperor wouldn't like to see
his heirs deprived of their rights.

Philip would be backed by France.

- We can fight them.
- Your Majesty...

try to guarantee peace for your states.

Don't provoke a war with
unpredictable outcomes.

We can still maintain our line of
succession and thwart Philip's plans.

He seems to forget that we
have his other son. Ferdinand.

Many would support him being crowned.

The queen opposes that alternative.

Am I the only one who's
aware of the storm before us?

Juana will concede.
Philip will reign.

You pointed out this danger, Chacon!

So many years of effort to end like this?

I should reign over
Castile, not a foreigner!

I'll remind you that our queen
still rests in your bedroom.

Us Castilians must loyally follow her will.

And a traitor will rule.

I hope not, but if you desecrate the law...

you'll guide us into a civil war.

I expected better from you, Chacon.

Isabel is my wife and Isabel my daughter.

Do you love them more than I do?

Ruling with your heart
and not with your head...

implies that we won't fulfill
what God entrusted us with.

Your Majesty, if you're guided by reason...

then make a reasonable proposal.

Don't fool yourselves.

Juana is no longer in this game.

It's between Philip and myself.

The Catholic King seems very angry.

He is, both as father and king.

He warns you.

Whoever offends the princess
is defiling Castile as a whole.

What did you tell him?

Nothing I didn't see with my own eyes.

Did you see something more
than a desperate husband trying

to prevent the consequences
of his wife's delusions?

Try to avoid the causes

and you'll avoid the consequences.

Are you blaming me for
deepening the princess' madness?

In this diary, you can read the
records of Juana's degeneracy.

Judge how much a husband must
love his wife to endure such penury.

Read it. You and your master.

And judge me later.

- My lady...
- Help me.

- Didn't you hear the doctor? Rest.
- Help me, I said.

Yesterday I was sure I would
never leave my bed again...

but now I feel some strength.

You're always so stubborn.

And you, always...

the best friend God could give me.

Beatriz..

I need you close to me.

But also strong and spirited.

I see you're feeling better, Your Majesty.

I won't confess today.

I'm glad to hear that.

That allows me to reproduce
the marquise of Villena's petition.

He desires an audience
to present his respects and

keep vigil over your health.

The crows delayed more than expected.

Don Diego has given a lot of money
to the funds for the poor novices.

That's a gesture to be noticed.

Tell the marquis that I'll receive him.

Why would you accept a meeting
that demands your strength?

As I told you...

I want to leave without owing anything.

- Are you sure it's him?
- Yes, my lord.

Call him in. No.

Wait.

You came back.

Do I deserve so little respect?

You receive me in a hallway.

I see your appearance has
changed, but not your temper.

How tired and old are you
feeling after your journey?

More than misfortune and disease...

it is humiliation that tires
me most. There is no need...

for me to go through this.

And not just here.

It's unfair that I had to pay to
travel over the lands I conquered.

Are you requesting the crown's reward?

I'm here to talk to Her Majesty.

Don Cristopher...

the queen is dying.

I know. That's why this is urgent.

I won't allow you to bother
her with your demands now.

I simply want to say goodbye to her.

I beg you.

You are scared.

That's understandable. Your
sole protector is going to the grave.

Without her, you won't
travel or be honored.

Everything ends here for you.

Gold.

I've found gold.

Mountains.

Mountains of gold.

You can reach it with your bare hands.

Please let me talk to the queen.

Let her die knowing
that our enterprise ends...

fulfilling everything we were expecting.

You'll get sick if you don't rest.

Being with you is my sole comfort.

Are you still worried
about the kingdom's fate?

No. And you shouldn't be worried either.

Everything is taken care of.

That's how it should be.

We have so little time.

Don't talk like that.

These are my dearest jewels.

And not because of their value.

I have some from my mother...

and the first gifts you gave me.

I want you to have them.

Our daughters should take care of them.

I want you to remember
me every time you see them.

Do you think I need a
jewel to remember you?

I have one more wish.

Above all else

you are the one who can fulfill it.

I swear I will.

I want to be buried in Granada.

But I want to rest wherever you are.

Wherever you want.

Your wish is the same one I have.

Always together, Isabel.

In life and death.

Among everything the Lord gave me...

you are His best gift.

It's a sweet dessert.
I'm sure you'll like it.

Don't be afraid.
I'm your husband.

Let me help you.

Nothing must be forced
between husband and wife.

Everything will be different from now on.

I swear.

You are my woman.

You know I need you by my side.

You must get well.

Leave, Your Highness.
Leave me with my sister.

Your Majesty.

There's someone you
like who's eager to see you.

Then it is not the marquis of Villena.

You can come in.

Your Eminence.

I prayed to God to be
able to say goodbye to you.

I'll still pray to avoid such a dismissal.

Let's accept the Lord's will.

He is never wrong.

Don't leave yet.

There's something I have for both of you.

You must listen to this together.

You are the two pillars over
which the Castilian Church is built.

I know I can trust you.

There are still many enemies of our faith.

That's why you, Father Hernando...

- I have a duty for you.
- I'll always try to please you.

Don't hesitate anymore.
Support the Holy Inquisition.

Only it can ensure our faith's unity.

And that will ensure Castile's future.

I'll always be on the
side of God's justice.

Those are not the
words I'm willing to hear.

Sometimes we have to
tolerate what we dislike...

in order to reach a greater good...

that would otherwise be unreachable.

You know I'm not a man of politics.

That's why I beg you to trust me.

Your Eminence.

Someone delivered this for you.

He said it was urgent.
He awaits your response.

Bad news?

My brother is dying.

I'm sorry.

He needs my presence.

- I'll order for your bags to be ready.
- No. No.

I owe myself to the queen now.

But...

Nothing else must be said about this.

Everything will go well, Father Hernando.

Excuse me, Your Majesty.

I didn't know you were busy.

Come in. I wanted to talk to you.

And the archbishop of
Granada can participate in this.

Do you remember, Father Hernando

how the adventure in the Indies began?

Faith moved you to promote it.

A treasure of souls for Christendom.

That's the best reward we've obtained.

A great wealth, without a doubt.

I've disposed it to be
protected in my testament.

The habitants of the Indies..

Are my subjects just like
those who are born in Castile.

And as my subjects...

they have the same
rights to life and property...

and that must be respected.

I know how you think, Your Majesty.

Whoever succeeds me
in these affairs will know

the importance of fulfilling your requests.

And who should come after you?

I want everything to continue as it has.

I found out about the admiral's return.

- Do you know anything?
- No.

Just the same rumors..

That his eminence has heard.

I hope they are true, hope
he is safe and sound here.

I hope so.

What are you doing?

What are you doing? Stop this!

You're treating the princess
like a pig you're fattening!

How dare you? Get out of here!

Get out of here immediately!

My lady...

How are you?

If your mother could see you...

Try to recover.
With this attitude

you're fulfilling the plans
of the enemies of Castile.

Your Highness, your mother is dying.

You must remember who you
are and what you're entitled to.

Don't you understand, Princess?

They want you weak to take
away your mother's crown.

That's your crown by right!

This is what your parents want for you.

Soon I'll leave for Castile.

Do you want me to deliver
a message to the kings?

No, no!

You can't leave!
My husband is a monster!

You can't leave me here by myself!

My lady, I won't be able to do much

if you don't do something for yourself.

Help me. Help me.

- I swear I'll do everything I can...
- Your Highness.

Your Highness.

I won't leave you in this condition.

I promise.

We appreciate your
donation to the poor novices.

I see you're pleased.
This won't be the only donation.

The crown's relationship with your
family has been far from smooth.

That's something we found aggravating.

You may have heard about
my will to restore some properties

to the noble families of Castile.

I'd be lying if I denied it.

You will benefit from it.

In accord with the generosity
you're displaying now.

However, I've ordered
the marquisate of Villena

to be kept under royal control,
attached to the crown's patrimony.

Your Majesty...

Villena has always
been our lineage's jewel.

That's the price your family must pay

for the disloyalty it once
displayed toward me.

That's a high price that our
further services must have paid.

You're not acting like this against
others who have attacked you worse.

I've lived my entire life keeping
an eye over the Pacheco family.

No other family has been as
dangerous to the crown as yours.

You feared us proportionally
to our great power.

And my punishment is
proportional to your grave offense.

By restoring your former power

I'd be enhancing a menace for Castile.

You won't avoid it by humiliating me.

That's true.

However, as my death approaches

I want to state that I'm
dying just like I lived.

Facing my enemies directly.

Marquis.

Remember I've allowed
you to live in my kingdom...

while other rulers don't
hesitate to behead their enemies.

Not even dead would she stop hating me.

Stay calm, sir.

The dead can't dispose over the living.

That's exactly what she's doing.

I damn her and her whole family!

Stay calm, I warn you.

Your Eminence.

Why this honor?

Colombus is in Segovia.

He wrote this for me.

Why didn't you tell me he wants to see her?

It's a matter of days until
Her Majesty passes away.

Many are requesting an
audience, and we thwart them all.

But she appreciates Colombus greatly.

I can assure you Her Majesty...

must be disappointed with him.

However...

it's her call whether to see him or not.

She is the queen.

She is near death.

Do you think it's a Christian
thing to allow that wanderer

to disturb her with his demands and claims?

I read he doesn't intend that.

You know why he visited me?

He wants to get back the money
he used to travel from the Indies.

He is a man that's difficult to please.

But very loyal to the crown!

I don't think so. He thinks
the crown has mistreated him.

That turned his loyalty
into rancor and greed.

Your Eminence, listen to me.

Don't get into this.
You are not well informed.

Perhaps you're being too suspicious.

That's what I thought.

That's why I investigated
the lord of Belmonte.

I've heard this isn't the first
time he has met Lopez Pacheco.

A few days ago, Belmonte

dispatched, with urgency and
secrecy, a French emissary.

At this time, perhaps it's better
to distrust than to be naive.

Our enemies do not seem
concerned about acting within the laws.

They have taken advantage.

Do you believe Belmonte is a traitor?

Let's capture him.
I promise we'll unveil this.

Not yet.

Let's first acknowledge his plans.

I absolve your sins...

in the name of the Father,
the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Your dedicated affection has
accompanied me for many years.

I am very grateful.

Castile's church will be
forever indebted to you.

Take this.

It bears wood from the Holy Cross.

For many years I've
kept it close to my heart.

My lady, you seem to be dismissing me.

- Tomorrow you'll be here.
- But you won't.

Prepare everything to leave.
You'll go help your brother.

He needs you, more than I.

I won't abandon you,
Your Majesty.

You'll contradict me until the end.

It's not my brother who deserves
my services, nor my care.

If you don't attend to
him in his last hours

you'll live with that guilt forever.

I appreciate your
interest, but I'm not going.

You have always been stubborn.

But I won't consent to
you being more so than me.

- Your Majesty...
- Go, please don't...

force me to give you orders.

Only in that way would I leave you.

Then I order you.

I'll go and fulfill your request.

But I'll return as soon as I can.

Don't think you're saying
a final goodbye to me.

There are no goodbyes among us.

Wherever you are, you'll always be with me.

It's holier because it's yours.

I'll always carry this with me.

So...

see you soon.

See you soon, Your Eminence.

What is it? Why the urgency?

A letter from Belmonte.

We need Juana sane
and ready to rule Castile.

And that damned diary...

leaves no doubt about her madness!

Burn it!

Too late. I gave it to Fuensalida.

You have to help me get it back.

Why should I? Ask him for it.

Fuensalida will reject anything I request.

He is aware of your good
relationship with Juana.

Perhaps he still trusts you.

Tell Philip that he can
come safely to Castile.

Is your support shared
by more noble families?

Guzman, Manrique, Pimentel and Zuniga

they're all eager to
stop Ferdinand's tyranny.

We can't fail with such prominent allies.

Philip must come with Juana.

She will be proclaimed
queen as the law says.

Then we'll consider the circumstances.

Let it be so.

Your father would've been proud of you.

One more thing.

A king of Castile will never
be a vassal of a French king.

My dad would stir in
his grave if that happens.

Appreciated ambassador, I'm happy.

It seems it's because of you
that the princess is eager to eat.

Excellent news, Your Highness.

But the merit is entirely hers.

My wife still rejects my presence.

I don't blame her. I was wrong.

I've come to terms with
it, and I want to rectify it.

My sister and you with her...

have opened my eyes.

With patience and God's help...

I hope our union can be ratified.

But now, the only thing
that matters is her welfare.

The joy provoked by your words...

is the same the Catholic Kings will feel...

once I deliver this message of yours.

Sir.

My brother told me about a
diary he put under your care.

If somehow my lips unveiled
such intimate information...

I'd want nothing else than to
be locked in a tower or killed.

For the princess' sake, I
must ask you not to read it.

And don't let anyone read it.

I should never have ordered
it to be made. I'm sorry.

I beg you to allow me to burn it.

I'm pleased to hear about your decision.

But my desolation is greater.

I can't satisfy your request.

I sent that diary to Castile.
I thought that was your wish.

Recover it. Do whatever it takes.

I'm afraid that's no longer possible.

Ambassador...

do everything in your
power to protect the princess

and her parents from dishonor.

I'll write. Or better yet...

I'll travel to Spain and try to diminish

the consequences of its reading.

- We must stop the emissary.
- Do you think that's possible?

I'll send my men.
I'll send all of my horses.

But that diary must not reach Castile.

After everything I've heard,
Your Majesty, I have no doubts.

Philip is trying to get Castile's crown.

He searches for support among
the people able to help him.

We need to know his plans.

Perhaps he wants the courts
to declare Juana unsuited

and proclaim himself king
with the nobles' support.

He is a foreign vassal of the
French. I doubt he can do that.

Maybe he'll opt for a different
tactic, to ensure a warm reception

once Juana concedes her rights to him.

He'd still need support.
Very costly support, I believe.

Whatever his plan is, Belmonte

is the link between the
archduke and the nobles.

Search for him. Bring
him to me, dead or alive!

A Castile in the hands of foreigners and
traitors is worse than under King Henry!

Will this catastrophe
follow my wife's rightful rule?

- How much time has passed.
- And how hard it has been.

Your Eminence.

Your request to see the queen...

has been denied.

They fear you could bother
her with new demands.

I simply want to say
goodbye to her. I swear.

- How is she?
- Sadly, she doesn't have much time.

I also feel I'm losing my strength.

I have this feeling that doesn't go away.

All human efforts are no more than ashes...

- when our time arrives.
- That's correct.

I know my adventure is over.

I'm no longer fighting
for privileges or rewards.

My friend, you've always
been very eloquent.

How can we know you're sincere?

You will judge by yourself.

I just want to see the queen's eyes.

She will read in my eyes...

what words are unable to
communicate despite any eloquence.

I can read your eyes too, Admiral.

I trust in what they reveal.

Your face has recovered
some of its former blush.

By contemplating it, I
can recover some calm.

The days you didn't want to see
me have been very hard for me.

I've experienced what it
would be like to lose you and...

My wife, I've feared for you.

Is there any news from Castile?

Her Majesty, your
mother, isn't getting better.

You know she is in God's hands.

- Yes, I know.
You must think of your own recovery.

You must be ready to fulfill your fate.

You'll soon be the queen.

But you mustn't be afraid.

Just like your destiny
is to rule over Castile...

mine is to be by your side...

and help you in the
mission that God has for you.

I appreciate your visit, but...

I'm tired, and I need some rest.

Fine.

I'll leave then.

Get some rest and remember...

I'll always be by your side, my wife.

Always.

You are here.

I have so much to thank you for.

There are not enough words

I don't need any, Your Majesty.

Serving you has been
the purpose of my life.

What a difficult situation
Castile is facing...

with her queen confined
in this obscure room.

It wasn't always like this.

On the contrary.

I didn't do more than what you taught me.

It gives me peace

to know you'll be here with me.

My kingdom will need firm hands like yours.

There are turbulent times ahead of us.

And I can't do anything about that.

You've done more than enough.

Not more than you.

But never limp in my absence, I beg you.

My husband and my daughter need you.

No one will menace what you've built.

Can I leave with that certainty?

I'll serve your daughter...

and your husband.

Philip will not reach the throne.

I swear.

- Back!
- Calm down.

These are my men, but
the royal guard is on its way.

- Are they after me?
- Apparently.

The king is searching for
you. I, sir, offer my protection.

You'll be safe in my castle.

Let's go then.

Go.

Leave as soon as you can.

I hope you can reach the kingdom
before God takes my mother.

Tell the queen I wanted to be with her...

and that Castile will have a queen...

capable of taking care of its subjects...

in her memory.

I wouldn't want to tire you.

No.

Your company...

is always comforting for me.

The admiral has returned
to Castile, Your Majesty.

I saw him.

I thank God.

He requested to see you. It was denied.

No one wants you to be bothered.

But you...

you came here to ask on his behalf.

He just wants to see you.

One last time.

We shared so many dreams.

Tell my admiral...

that I'll receive him.

- My lord...
- Communicate your success.

- Is this the book I asked you for?
- Yes, sir, here it is.

What is this?

- You worthless bastard!
- Don't blame this man, Brother.

Fuensalida deceived us.
That's clear.

What are you talking about?

You, an experienced
hunter, should understand.

He sent that man to
Castile for you to chase him.

Call the ambassador. Quickly!

Yes, sir.

Let's go.

They say you have important news. Tell me.

I don't want to be far
from the queen's bed.

Here you have an exact account
of your daughter's foolish acts.

Her husband ordered this record.

How did you get this document?

That's a long story, Your Majesty.

What matters is that as
soon I knew it existed...

I understood it should
be kept in the right hands.

I must thank you, Ambassador.

We still don't know how
beneficial this may be for our cause.

How is the princess at the moment?

Locked in her room. Alone.

Subdued to the archduke's tyranny.

Her illness is getting worse.

I did everything I could to help her.

But now I fear for her.

- I fear for the future.
- With reason.

In Philip's hands, my
daughter is just a doll.

If we don't stop him, he will
achieve what he wants so much.

The queen must know about this.

Your Majesty, she
doesn't have the strength.

Her soul is struggling to leave her body.

Allow her to leave in peace.

The queen is still able
to thwart the menace

hanging over us.

It's in her hands.

And in the pages of this diary.

Belmonte's letter from Castile.

The Castilian nobles will support us.

- Are you sure?
- As sure as their ambition.

King Ferdinand is losing allies

and I'm gaining momentum.

What about your wife?

Their support is useless without hers.

My wife will do whatever I want.

I can assure you that everything
will turn out as I've planned.

Have you read it?

I can corroborate how lost our girl is.

Her disgrace is our disgrace.

All we have fought for...

may vanish as an obtuse and
cruel traitor usurps your place.

What can we do?

Make sure that even if Juana
concedes her will to him...

Philip will never reign over these lands.

How?

Write it down

in your testament.

Your will is law.

Write down an antidote for disgrace.

You can still prevent Philip
from usurping the crown.

Poor Juana.

What will happen to her?

If Juana is unsuited..

Then...

only you can rule.

You are the only person...

in whom I can entrust

the future.

Our dream won't fade away.

You are in the position to
order it. And it is in my hands...

to execute your will.

Call my notary.

I order and command...

that if Princess Juana isn't
present in my kingdoms...

or if she is impeded,
voluntary or not, to rule them...

the king, my husband...

will reign, administer
and rule the kingdoms...

on my daughter, the princess', behalf...

until infant Charles..

My grandson...

reaches the age of 20.

Then he must be crowned.

I beg the king, my husband

to accept the regency

and I beg all of my subjects

of whatever position and state

to obey his rule

and fulfill his commands.

It is time, my dear husband..

For me to leave in peace.

- The doctors say you're eating better.
- Yes.

So many days of fasting turn
the simplest dish into ambrosia.

You've recovered your sense of humor.

These days of anguish have made me think.

And what have you been thinking?

Our bond goes beyond life itself.

God interweaved our fates into one.

That's now crystal clear to me.

That's why I ordered this
document to be written.

If I die before you...

should God want it that way..

All my titles will be yours.

Do you know what that means?

Yes, of course.

Good.

If you did the same..

Our earthly fate would be the same one.

I am for you... you are for me.

What do you say?

I believe you think I'm
crazier than people say.

It seems you want me to give away freely...

the throne that only
I'm supposed to occupy.

Is this the reason
behind your new attitude?

Your sweet words.

I'd prefer to be tortured
rather than sign such paper.

Go somewhere else with your stories.

I do not want to hear them.

Bitch.

You thwarted my intentions
to visit my dying mother

and for that I'll never forgive you.

Your Majesty, we can't do anything else.

Relieve her pain.

Did you receive my message?

No, I don't know what you mean.

I sent an urgent message for you.

I'm afraid the emissary didn't find you.

The queen is about to die.

Your visit is now impossible.

I can wait.

I can wait.

My lord.

Nothing we achieved will be lost. I swear.

I'll keep a watch over your legacy.

I'll keep the memory of the
deep love I've always felt for you.

The queen...

has died.

Today, the day the queen passed away

Our Lord has decided...

to take to His realm our Isabel..

My beloved wife.

Even though her death, for me

is the worst suffering I
could ever endure, for all...

I lost with her departure...

and all what the kingdoms lost too...

To see that she died following
her Catholic faith as she lived it...

means that we can be sure
that God will take her to His Glory.

For His Glory is a better kingdom
that the ones she had here...

if this is our Lords will.

Then we must accept it...

and thank Him once again for everything.

Castile proclaims our queen, Juana!

Our lady!

For Castile, for Castile...

For Castile!

Isabel I of Castile Madrigal. April 22,
1451. Medina del Campo, November 26, 1504.
