All language subtitles for 03 The Scorpion King 3 Battle For Redemption - Action 2012 Eng Subs 1080p [H264-mp4]

Well, behold.

Great Scorpion King.

Please forgive our reveries, but we
cannot believe our good luck at being

at one time to rid the world of an
Akkadian and at the same time

erase the memory of your...

legendary failures to

your people

as

well as to your queen

your queen was a great

sorceress how was it that she

to see her own demise.

Did you

really think that you could be a leader
of men?

Achadians are good for but one thing.

You almost single -handedly decimated a
civilization that took over 3 ,000 years

to build.

Matthias, the once mighty scorpion king,
has lost his empire and his beloved

queen.

With nothing left to live for, his only
desire is to die well in the pursuit of

mercenary gold and freedom from the pain
that haunts him.

King Horus, the most powerful ruler in
the world, faces a crisis that could

him his kingdom.

His brother, Pallas, a ruthless warrior,
has taken a legion of soldiers to the

far east to pillage its treasures and
amass an army powerful enough to return

and conquer Horus's kingdom.

Now Pallas marches on the palace of King
Ramussan, Horus' last ally in the known

world and guardian of the legendary Book
of the Dead.

Horus must stop Pallas before he lays
hands on the book and enslaves

people.

For this, he needs a fearless champion
willing to accept what is

certainly a suicide mission.

Well done, Matthias.

Formidable work.

Besting Cyrus.

He was one of my most valued military
advisors.

That's funny.

He didn't seem to have a head for
battle.

Humor from an Acadian. Proof that
anything is possible.

We intercepted one of his messenger
parcels detailing all of our defensive

strongholds. Who was he working for?

My brother.

Talos.

After my father died and left the
kingdom to me, Talos became very, very

He thought he was the rightful heir to
the throne.

I'll do respect, Your Highness.

I have a few vessels of wine and a small
army of heron girls to conquer tonight.

Would you skip to the part where you
tell me who you want killed?

Your royal nobility didn't take long to
wear off.

Welcome.

Someone that they call Cobra is the
leader of the Traveler Resistance.

Naming yourself after a venomous
creature?

Why didn't I think of that?

Once he finds out your mission is to
protect Team Ramassan, I'm hoping that

comes to your aid.

Your chances of survival, Matthias, are
minimal, at best.

When do I leave?

Tomorrow. Well, better start drinking.

I only need you to hold Talith off long
enough for me to get my army there.

King Ramassan will give you 10 ,000
pieces of gold at the completion of your

mission. I will give you another 10 upon
my arrival. That is, if you survive

long enough to collect it.

I'm sending someone with you.

I work alone, you know that.

Matthias, you stand to help a great many
people, perhaps that could provide some

redemption for past sins.

I'll never have redemption for the past.

The gods will curse my passing and I'll
thank them for it.

I do this for money alone.

You all fight like little girls! Which
one of your idiot, mighty warriors will

accompany me?

Challenge me.

That one.

That ape?

Under what rock did you find him?

He was one of the only survivors of the
great siege of Babylon.

We brought him into our ranks because of
his unique skillset.

I may not have yet to embrace him.

Don't cry to your mama.

I wonder why.

Your hat looks stupid.

Olaf,

have you gone completely stupid?

He's working for me.

Olaf's devotion to the realm, albeit
humbling, tends to cloud his judgment.

apologies.

And you're working with him?

Working?

What? A quest.

Let's drink!

Did you bathe in camel dung this
morning?

I smell like warrior!

Well, thank the gods my kingdom is safe.

Prepare them for their journey.

from Sodom with a mustache and an ample
bottom.

She said with a wink as she poured me a
drink, if it's big feet you like, I got

them.

I heard stories about an Acadian once.

Tales of incredible feats in battle.

A man so mighty, many believed him part
God.

I do not know much, but of one thing I
am certain.

You know a cave.

That's a mighty amount of horse shit.

Oh, I could really go for a sheep's
stomach stuffed with crickets.

You probably eat like a bird.

What's with the hair?

How do you get it all straight and shiny
like that?

Did Mama comb that hair a hundred times
every night?

Or did Grandma have a recipe she passed
down through the generations?

Just a hint of fat poop with just a
bunch of funky testicles.

Oh, how about that? Your balls finally
dropped.

See, I finally got you to shut up.

You want to go, Katie?

Already going.

Call that punching, princess.

Or were you courting me with those left
taps?

Huh? Great humper of sheep.

I have my feet where you belong.

Oh, I'm sorry. Did I mess up your hair?

Wait, let me... Nice try.

I don't feel like a filthy swine. You
like my face?

Let me give you a closer look.

Give us your gold.

or we'll cut your throat.

Go back to mama.

Hey, what are you doing?

My mama sent her return.

They're fools.

One -legged sheep move faster.

Forget them. You know.

That was the easiest robbery we have
done in years.

That's good

Not bad.

Maybe you are an Acadian after all.

That was fun. Almost broke a sweat.

Now where is my baby?

There you are.

This is a nice camp.

It's good of them to get it ready for
us.

It was a good day.

That it was.

Where are you from?

I've never seen your kind in the desert
before.

I'm a Teuton from Germania.

A land of mountains, snow, and ice.

Are you crying?

No.

Dirt in my eye.

How'd you end up here?

I came to fight in the great desert wars
for gold.

I was to take my spoils back home.

But I have not earned the fortune I'd
hoped for.

Well, when we help this pitiful king,
she'll have them.

And I can return to my Olga.

Oh, Olga.

And our 17 daughters.

17 daughters?

Yes. But it's still the way it is, son.

Well, it's not like it's for lack of
trying.

What about you?

What's your history in this place?

I have no history.

I just want to know where you're from,
brother.

We're not brothers.

You understand?

You're pissed in your wineskin.

It's time to rest.

We have many days travel ahead of us.

smells like rotten yak carcass.

Great gods!

What do they feed you cats over here?

Bye,

Ola. Die well.

I've heard tales of such beasts.

They look hungry.

News from King Ramathon's palace.

Palace has declared war on Ramathon.

Fetch me the rest of my generals.

We march tonight.

Fetch them!

Yes, sire!

By the gods, tell me.

I supposed to live.

Jungle has been known to swallow men
whole.

I've heard tales of half -monkey men
drinking human blood.

Excuse me if I don't consider a North
Country barbarian an expert in jungle

warfare.

With any luck, we'll make Ramassan's
palace by sundown.

Sire, we captured one of Cobra's rebels
for interrogation.

Ramassan's army is on the move, but the
king remains at the palace with the

book.

And still no sign of Cobra.

What have we?

Officer?

Don't give too much credit to these
heathens to assume some proper chain of

command.

Where is Cobra?

Is he planning an ambush?

He's not shown his face in days. Where
is he?

Perhaps I should speak just a little bit
louder.

Might you hear me now?

Horse will send an army.

He has not done so already.

We must not wait to take Remsen.

And a detail of men to attack.

Tonight.

I could give you two more. Two for you.
Come celebrate, beautiful cobra.

Come celebrate.

That chicken

for you.

We may be too late.

We're too late. We're still getting the
gold, right?

Focus. Look down there. Those are Talos'
men.

I count 50 men in Talos' royal colors.

Like 60, 65.

We need a plan.

Really? I thought we were just running
down there, yelling and dumping our

chests, trying to scare them to death.

That's not a bad idea.

Secure the gate!

They come for the book.

These men are assassins.

Talos wishes for me to die without
honor.

While my people defend the land they
have owned for centuries.

He must never taste victory.

Only the copper sting of his own blood.

Right!

Chimps attack in numbers, like an army
trying to overwhelm their enemy.

The gorilla does not have the benefit of
numbers.

He makes the enemy bring the fight to
him.

More cunning, more deadly.

One gorilla is better than 50 chimps.

You're not as dumb as you look.

More sound.

We're not even going to talk about the
smell.

What are you talking about?

I smell delicious.

Bring in the meat!

Second position!

It's time for battle.

Let's crack some skulls.

GENTLE!

Move to the wall!

diplomat? Actually, yes.

Maybe we should have just asked the bad
guys to leave the king alone.

Stop!

In any case, we are grateful to King
Horus for his assistance.

And not a moment too soon.

Your men have my warmest invitation to
enter the palace.

My men?

Your army. The men waiting in the
jungle.

There's no army, your highness.

Just us.

I am impressed, to say the least.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Normally a victory celebration would be
in order, but... But you can't afford to

spend any of our gold on it.

Yes, we need to discuss the gold.

There isn't any.

I'm sorry, I thought he just said there
isn't any gold.

That can't possibly be true.

Draw your sword, idiot.

Please, please put away your swords.

There is no deceit.

My offer to King Horus was made in good
faith, but war, as you know, has its

cost. And this war has cost me
everything.

That being said, you've both traveled a
great distance to come to our aid. And

the kingdom owes you a tremendous debt.

You shall pay in treasure.

Well, that will also be acceptable.

Provided, of course, that it is
something of great value.

By the gods, that is... A vision of
beauty.

Reminds me of my augur. You
misunderstand.

I do not propose this piece of art as
your payment, but rather its subject.

My daughter, Princess Zilda.

I offer to you my daughter's hand in
marriage as your reward.

I can't do that.

Very well.

I accept.

No doubt an offer difficult to decline,
but have you forgotten there are two of

us? The necklace that she is wearing is
the eye of God's medallion.

I thought that was a myth thieves told
their children at bedtime.

You mean to tell me it's real?

Apparently so.

Well, gods be praised.

We shall have it.

Yes.

Inside of you.

Where is the princess?

Talos has her.

He kidnapped her to force my surrender.

As much as I love my daughter, my people
must come first.

I shall hold up Talos here while you
rescue Gilda.

Save my daughter and earn your seat at
the royal table.

You and a princess.

You mean to kill me?

Still, your aim is truer than my palace
guard.

You know, I

have a mind to free your hands, for I
may starve to death.

Look at me.

Look at me.

Better.

You will definitely be my queen.

Though, your resistance to me is as
preposterous as your affinity to those

savages in the jungle.

You call your people.

They are no more people than the palace
monkeys that wipe my bottom.

And you see, I am a benevolent, highly
entertaining ruler,

worthy of your hand.

You will see this.

You will see this, or I will...

Take out your eyes and feed them to the
Ravens

My champions have held off Talith.

King Ramazan's palace is secured.

Looks like Talith is preparing for
battle.

Where are they taking those prisoners?

To the front lines.

What?

I have a plan.

This better not involve me.

What business have you, heathen?

I hear you're paying for frontline
fodder. A piece of silver for every day

survives the battle.

You look like you're good.

Oh, none of them. Not me.

My slave here.

We might get a whole week out of this
one.

Have fun.

This way.

Messenger brings news.

Your assassins failed to take the
palace.

They were defeated by an outside force.
The messenger believes Cobra came to

Ramosan's aid.

Fall in! Formation!

And you know this how?

Messenger, are you a sorcerer?

Or do you speculate, huh?

Oh, fear not.

Only a heartless rogue would kill the
messenger.

Kill him.

Quick work of those savages. Press
forward without mercy.

Robinson's army approaches, my lord.

Return!

I'm trying to help you.

You don't stop struggling, I'll take you
to Abdul. Be highly to add you to his

brothel.

Good work, Akkadian. Great plan.

He gets the girl and I get these...
fools.

Ridiculous.

Can somebody help me out?

The warriors are Cobra's men.

They've got Zilda and they're getting
away. I'm going after them.

I'll be gifting donkey gum and crack
some heads.

I'll let us see how our royal guest is
felt.

Sound the alarm.

Anybody?

Sound the alarm!

Sound the alarm!

Taya, the princess is gone.

Oh, really?

Was it Cobra?

Did you by any chance happen to see
these thieves?

No, sire. They hit me so fast... I want
the girl!

Now! Yes, sir.

Who

is

that man?

We're on the same side. Give me the girl
and the medallion and I'll take it from

here.

Greetings.

As you know, some thieves from the
Resistance have stolen my bride

-to -be.

As my men are clearly not up for the
fight, and you have demonstrated that

are up for the challenge, I would like
to procure your services.

This is fit for a bribing purse.

That's about it. You need much more gold
than this.

Done. And some women.

Done. There will be bonuses if you bring
me the head of Cobra, their leader.

All of the assassins I have sent have
not returned.

If you succeed, there will be more gold
than your beast can carry.

To fail is to die.

To refuse my offer is to die.

So, what say you then?

I say we're wasting valuable time.

So let me get this straight.

I spend the entire day cracking skulls
in a war that interests me about as much

as camel dung in the desert.

Meanwhile, you lose the girl and the
medallion and get us sent into this

jungle to battle someone named after the
world's most deadly snake, who, by the

way, was supposed to be on our side, so
that we can get paid twice for the same

job.

Not bad, huh?

What about the medallion? It's what we
came for.

When we find Cobra, we'll find Princess
Silda.

And at that time, we'll have the
medallion.

It may seem like a setback now, but it's
really going to work out to our

advantage. Don't pimp on my head and
tell me it's raining, Matthias.

Why did Talos and Cobra care about this
meaningless trumpet anyway, if they are

such mighty warriors?

They both know that only royal blood can
truly unite the tribes of this land.

She's a symbol of a new beginning.

I doubt we'll get any gold out of this.

What?

Quiet. We're close.

My belly has a need for mead.

Right upon my warrior steed.

There's battles to be fought and wars to
be won.

I like cracking skulls with my mace.

It's for fun.

You found a big root, did you?

Quite the lesson an Acadian warrior
trekked, pretty boy.

They might hear us.

And be alerted to our presence!

Yep, they reside in falling water.

We're not alone, Olaf.

I'm going to make some falling water of
my own.

Adventure of a lifetime, my heart.

Friends like you who needs women.

Oh, this is going to feel good.

Where's the princess?

I have no quarrel with you. You give me
back Silda and I'll let you live.

No.

I'm just going to kill you and find her
on my own.

Fine.

Come

on.

What in the name of the demon serpent is
going on? You got the serpent part

right.

Meet Cobra.

Well, it wasn't a dream.

More like a nightmare.

All right, let me get this straight.

You are Cobra, and you got captured as
Soda, and you freed yourself as Cobra?

Staging my capture allowed me to search
Talos' entire camp at night.

Until I found my medallion.

Then you two came along and blew a plan
that took weeks to execute.

Perhaps if your father had told us your
true identity, you wouldn't have had

this problem in the first place.

King Ramussan, my father, does not know
my secret.

Come, Olaf.

Let's take leave of this woman.

She does not even have the medallion.

I'm tired of this upside -down country
and its ill -mannered rulers.

Or what?

You'll say stop again?

The pajama -cloaked army's not here to
help you, and despite your obvious

talents, best thing Olaf and I is a bet
that we'll not pay.

Wait!

Please, wait.

Give me one good reason why I should.

I'll give you many.

After Talos burnt their village by the
river, they took refuge here in the

forest.

They can't survive here much longer.

Why do you show us this?

Because I need your help.

Woman, I'm a soldier of fortune. How
could I possibly help them? There's much

you can do.

After all, you are the great Scorpion
King.

What did you say?

What did she say?

You heard me.

You killed the evil King Memnon and
saved the sorceress Cassandra.

You made her your queen and freed a
nation.

Freed a nation?

Pure fancy, I can assure you.

More like legend.

Legend? My father told me this story
when I was younger.

It sounded like a fairy tale.

He heard about you from a fairy tale?

Quiet!

Why so defensive?

Is it true?

Tired of this nonsense.

Let's go.

You may have heard this fantastic tale,
but how would you know it's him if

you've never seen his face?

That he is Akkadian is obvious.

As for being the great Scorpion King, I
suspected, but wasn't certain.

Until now.

Matthias is a mercenary.

Not this king you have him confused
with.

Right?

Matthias, we are prepared to attack.

A spy has returned, but he could not
locate the book.

We suspect that Ramesson has hidden it.

Of course he has.

The last

victory

is ours.

the inside.

We are to believe his servants.

King Ramerson has fled. Without the Book
of the Dead?

Never.

When we find the secret chamber, we find
the Book and its people.

We are warriors, Ramerson.

Stop hiding like a quivering handmaiden
and bring me the Book.

This may be my final breath, but the
people of this land will rise above my

failures as a king.

And you will need much more than the
army you brought to break them.

You know, you might be correct.

Now, if only I had... a weapon...

That mind of despicable.

That would rid me of you.

You

know

what's heavier than I thought?

Simply a gun.

The collection of words is awful.

The text is useless.

Without the Madonna, I know.

Raffle! Yes, sire.

You know, I find it so ironic that soon
he, too, will become part of this text.

Very humorous.

The Book of the Dead.

I know you're the Scorpion King.

You can say anything you like, but your
eyesight is true.

I may have been, but that man is dead
and buried.

Many names can be shed and forgotten in
this life, Matthias.

King is not one of them.

Please, help us.

If you truly want to help your people,
you'll find a man that did not fail his.

The gods have their way.

And not even the mightiest of men can
stop it.

There are more than 500 ,000 people in
this country.

Talos will not stop until he enslaves
them all to build his empire.

Then he will march on Horus' kingdom
with the largest army anyone has ever

before.

Fight with me and we can stop him and
maybe in some small way you can forgive

yourself for the past I Will never
forgive myself for the past

Then you will never have a future

But

diet

Where in Odin's codpiece have you been?

I needed to think.

And drink.

Do you know how long I've been plogging
around this forest?

Fighting off ravenous beasts.

Looking for you.

As you quit your bellyaching.

So, is this quest over?

Even though every fiber of my being is
against it.

I shall stay and fight.

But for my reasons.

When we have crushed Talos and sent him
back into the dust, that is where it

ends for me.

Well said, your highness.

You call me that again, and you will
never have that son.

You're gonna need a bigger...

You're going to have to let go of
everything you know if you're going to

with us.

Look at Ying.

You, watch me.

Go, Ying!

Ha ha, right?

This water for insects would be of more
use.

That's good.

Now what if you are the insect?

You defy gravity, anticipate, predict
the movements of your predators.

Get under your enemy's skin.

I'll show you how we do it.

Where I'm from.

That was a great move, Olaf.

Thank you!

Thank you very much.

Can we please continue?

Let's continue.

I think it's your turn, Katie.

Let's see what you got, pretty boy.

If you are the insect, what are you?

Scorpion.

Not bad.

You try.

Good job.

Let's see what you've got.

You gonna take on the girl again,
Matthias? Huh?

She kicked your butt once.

Take him down!

I take your breath away

from the land of the burning sky.

Command me.

Lord, I am Aggramel.

Noble destroyer.

It is an honor to join you in battle.

One mortal dares to awaken the warriors
of the book.

It is I, Lord Talos, who summons thee
back to Earth to do battle.

I am Sukai, shadow warrior from the land
of the rising sun.

What is your will, my lord?

Well, my lord, I believe a demonstration
is in order.

and guard me while your cohorts go and
kill a snake.

Sukai, I want you to search the ether
for my prey, Cobra, and reveal to me his

hidden refuge.

And when the refuge is found, you will
slaughter Cobra and his army without

mercy.

And what of us?

You still look fierce, though, right?

Are you in this for the fight or for
her?

Both.

I cannot lie. She is under my skin and
crawling deeper every day.

Do you question my judgment because the
woman is involved?

On my unborn son, I am with you,
Matthias.

To the end, whatever that may be.

To the end.

I can't be caught.

Silda, what's happening?

Kalos awakened the ghost warriors.

Ghost warriors?

The Eye of God Medallion has great
power. If the owner reads from the Book

the Dead, it awakens the warriors from
the underworld.

The Book of the Dead has been lost for
thousands of years. Not lost.

It has been with our royal family for
many generations.

Father.

He would have given his life to protect
it.

And he died well.

Let it not be in vain.

Hold up! We fight!

You don't actually believe all this
fantastic gibberish, do you?

Conrad!

I'm trying to crack some heads!

you in my vision scorpion look at what
you have become you are a disgrace to

your people and your queen your queen
calls from the underworld

you like to join her i would be happy to
reunite you

i'll be joining her soon enough but it
won't be because of your cowardly

witchery

Your glorious efforts, dear heart. Cobra
is still at large.

So now your only mission, your only
task, is to guard the book.

Do you think you can manage that?

Oh, warriors of the etheric hoo -ha.

The book is to only be touched by me. Me
alone.

Sire, I fear your enemies remain
powerful.

You underestimate them at your own
hands.

I feel they're close and blotting.

I feel something, too. I feel that

this kingdom... This kingdom is...

Mine. And it is cause for celebration.

So come.

A celebration? Lord Thomas, it's
premature.

You must remain at the ready.

The only thing that you must do is obey
me, slave.

We are warriors of the book, my lord.

Not slaves.

You are.

what I say you are.

Slave! Unless you want to return to your
sarcophagus, I suggest you hold your

tongue and you hoist your chalice and
prepare for celebration.

Slave!

Slave, slave, slave!

Matthias. Surprise, surprise.

You know you can't get rid of me that
easy.

I thought that one day my people and I
would be free to escape this jungle,

return to the land that is rightfully
ours.

Yet with Talos' monsters waiting to
devour us, I fear it will be here we

It's always better to fight than be
devoured. You have the chance of freedom

this time.

What now for you?

Do what I always do in these situations.

Oh, yes? What's that?

Turn with my prize.

Collect my bounty, of course. Bounty?

Still in it for the money, I see.

Well, that's what Talos thinks, though,
too.

I don't follow.

You will.

I have a plan.

Now that Ramesson's men are fleeing for
their

lives, we will soon have the head of
Cobra. And

from here, we will build an empire that
will stretch all the way to the desert.

Pleasant surprise.

I thought you were lost in battle along
with your objective.

Silence.

Very impressive.

And so is that, if that is what I think
it is.

Our task was made a bit more difficult.
With your creatures from the underworld

killing everything that breathes. No,
they're not very particular.

You just point them in a direction and
you...

Let them go. Apologies for any hardship.

Well, now that you have Princess Silda
in the head of Cobra, you can apologize

with more gold.

Of course.

And well earned.

Plus an invitation.

To a wedding.

Or an execution.

Either way, it's a feast.

What shall it be, then?

Wedding it is.

Fantastic.

First thing in the morning.

And I don't think we need wait for
wedding spoils.

Do I have a choice in that matter?

No.

I mean... Lay

along there, brother.

We knew this was going to happen.

We have to focus on the task at hand.

Yes! Yes!

Hold up! Is this how you focus?

So Silda was right. The book is in the
treasure chamber under lock and key.

Judging by the looks on the guard's
faces, I would say that thing is in

with him.

Oh, don't brood, brother.

It was your plan after all.

He hasn't tried to bed her yet. You've
seen her. Would you wait?

Excellent point.

Oh, toast to her then. First sacrifice
in the line of duty.

Man. Woman.

Without me.

Olaf, it's time for battle.

Olaf!

You get the book. I'll get the
medallion.

Go.

Could possibly be taking so long.

How much more beautiful can you get?

That much.

Kindly pardon my exuberance.

You're excused.

Where are you, Matthias?

So much for pleasantries.

Now that the sword is unsheathed, it is
time to pierce the flesh.

Pure poetry, my lord.

Let us not rush through this important
eve.

We should really enjoy the remainder of
the day.

This will be my last day as maiden of
purity.

Take me now, my lord.

Take me.

Hurry up.

Now will be a good time.

Have patience, my lady.

It will all be over soon enough.

Did you touch her?

Did you let him touch you?

You're the best I ever had.

You can't!

Nighty -night.

Adventure of a lifetime.

I command you to obey me. As you say, my
lord.

No! You have to recite the incantation
to suit their allegiance.

What? Oh, women.

Now you tell me.

Now that's what I call treasure.

With pleasure.

Go get house.

The medallion is our only chance.

Leave this witch to me.

Okay.

Okay.

Come to papa.

What's that mean?

Good.

Not good. All right.

Talos wanted the book.

You fight well, mortal.

Perhaps he'll take you with us.

Spend eternity with two mindless brutes
and their pet witch?

No thank you.

You want Matthias, but he will never
stay with you.

He is one of the darkness, like us.

He only wishes to die. And you are
Cobra.

Your deception is the poison that is
killing your people.

The book.

You sure you don't want to go that way?

You might have a chance.

You should know better than to back an
animal into a corner.

You know what? The Book of the Dead
already

courses through my body. I don't need
this trinket.

Go ahead.

Let them have me. Let them devour me. I
will rise again like a bad idea,

and you will be crushed.

You first.

You've been a worthy adversary.

Four o 'clock. First bell, duck bell,
denouement.

My lord, the worries of the book are at
your service.

I'm sorry I deceived you.

Please forgive me.

There's nothing to forgive, Cobra.

I am proud of you, my daughter.

With honor, we join you in battle.

This battle is over.

At least it is for me.

My champion, you've done well.

Is that a problem?

Do you need more gold?

Consider it done.

It is not that, your highness.

I actually have some gold for you.

These are the fortunes of your brother
Talos, minus the expenses it will cost

repair this land.

They're rightfully yours.

I don't understand.

I could have easily retrieved her from
the palace myself.

Probably not a good idea.

Meaning?

With all due respect, Your Highness,
you're not welcome here.

These people will no longer accept
foreign rule.

Now, they are grateful for everything
you have done to help them to be free,

they are willing to fight to stay that
way.

Will they not?

Well...

Since they have sent you as their
messenger, tell them this.

It's not their decision to make.

I have not come as their messenger,
sire.

I have come as their king.

You expect me to accept your claim to
the throne?

Uncontested.

I expect nothing more than your respect.

For myself, and for the people of this
land.

If it is a fight that you are looking
for, then you shall have it.

You surprise me, Akkadian.

I thought that you were traded in your
royal nobility for a few sacks of gold.

I had.

But now, if need be, I'm willing to
trade my life to get it back.

I believe you.

And whether I give you my blessing or my
blade, I respect you.

But I must confer with my general, when
you are the king,

The concerns of the realm come first and
foremost.

But you already knew that, didn't you?

Thank you.

. .

Thank you.
