Original subtitles

All Master Prai's disciples, be prepared. We shall hold the power of this nation.

Prai is a monster, not human anymore.

I am here!

Is it Luang Bovorntat who is planning an insurrection?

Pansaeng was slashed by Prai's blade. Take this opportunity.

‪I hate you!

He came to kill me,

and you saved him.

I shall come to this house

and take care of you every day.

I request your permission to move back to my home, sir.

I shall reunite with the servants in that house

and find a way to start a new life somewhere.

From now on,

I want all of you to sell the goods in the market

and make some money.

Muen Vorachai would kill us.

He was even upset with you for selling goods.

Do it in secret, and do not let Chai know, Noi.

We must make money to start our lives anew.

Are we running away, My Lady?

Saiyud, lower your voice.

We may need two months to carry out this plan.

Money doesn't concern me. But the place we shall go…

Aon. Can we move to Mueang Khon, your hometown?

To my hometown?

Of course, My Lady.

It is a large city, and I still have some relatives there.

We all shall survive there.

Good.

We shall flee to Aon's hometown.

You have my thanks.

Yes, My Lady.

Tomorrow, I want you to search for evidence at Muen Vorachai's house.

Find out if there are any connections to Luang Bovorntat.

If I walk brazenly into his house,

I shall be struck down, sir.

Take this sacred item with you.

I lost again.

- I won. - Come on.

Mueang Khon lies a considerable distance from Ayothaya.

When we arrive,

Lady Va shall become a person without noble status, a normal citizen.

Va cares not for her status.

She would be happier as a normal citizen.

And I would not have to be a slave anymore.

You and I,

all of us, will be equal to Lady Va.

But Va never saw us as servants.

Muen Vorachai does no work all day, sir.

He wastes his time gambling with people every day.

He gambles while drunk, losing a great deal.

Imbecile.

Is he truly Lady Chavala's brother?

There were some documents,

yet I didn't know which one to take, since I couldn't read very well.

It is fine.

There's another matter, sir.

Lady Chavala has made plans with the servants

to move to Mueang Khon. Are you aware of this, sir?

I am.

You all, put in some effort!

Did you talk to her about this?

Do you two really wish to separate?

I married her only to capture criminals.

I thought she was working with them.

But surprisingly,

these siblings are nothing alike.

It is no use

to keep her around.

- But the one who is taking Lady-- - Hey.

You.

Hold your blade higher.

Watch me.

- Come. - The one who is taking her to Mueang Khon

is the male servant who is close to her. He has held her hands.

More importantly, he is quite charming.

Oh, no. Sir. Sir! Please calm down, sir.

He is still new.

He's new, sir.

My apologies.

Here.

What is it that angers you, sir?

Please be less aggressive. These are new soldiers.

Who am I angry with?! What has made me angry?!

Huh? Nothing!

He's not angry?

You must start by announcing the goods you're selling.

- Announcing, My Lady? - Hm.

Come, come, everyone.

Come, come. Gather round.

Look at this beautiful hat. Are you interested?

Shall you take one? Come and take one.

Aon, stop it. That's a jar for private use.

The one who is taking her to Mueang Khon is the male servant who is close to her.

More importantly, he is quite charming.

Pansaeng?

Has your leg wound healed?

Are you here with Va, sir?

Despite your feeble bladework, you dared approach alone.

Such folly.

Well, I fell

on a palm knife and cut my leg.

I shall not be able to get up and welcome you properly.

Please forgive me, sir.

How much did you get from Luang Bovorntat?

What are you talking about, sir?

What did Luang Bovorntat do?

You are merely a pawn, Muen Vorachai.

If you are caught one day,

a pawn like you shall be in the greatest trouble.

Do not help him.

Come and take my side.

Of late, Chavala's beauty has blossomed.

She is glowing more and more.

Perhaps you're taking good care of my sister.

I imagine there must always be food on the table.

I told you how great my sister is.

Shall I have my niece or nephew soon, sir?

I'm here to give you a fair warning.

Oh, I forgot to tell you.

The blade I wielded was infused with magic.

By now, your wound must be festering with worms,

burrowing deep into your bones.

You bastard! Did you use magic on me?!

Pansaeng! You fooled me!

You bastard!

Chavala!

If you need to be here, then come alone. Do not ever bring your husband!

- Who? - It's Pansaeng.

He came to make fun of me.

Is he here? What did he say to you?

I've learned that

you still sleep with Laor in the servant's quarter, right?

And what of it?

It's bizarre. Humans are born to be in pairs.

Don't you ever feel the "need"?

Chai, don't speak your filthy words to me.

Have you two even hugged?

My cozy little soul.

There is nothing more cozy

than a warm embrace.

If this is all you have to say,

then go back inside.

Your filthy words will only pollute this canal.

Help! Va fell into the canal!

Help! Va fell into the canal!

Help!

Help!

Va.

You'll love my sister.

Your magic will fade.

When that day comes, I shall stomp you.

- It was Chai. Chai pushed me. - What?

- Chai! - Wait. Don't go up yet.

Your clothes fell away.

Va!

What happened?

Laor, bring her some clothes.

Yes, sir.

Wait. Not that one, Laor!

Find some other clothes.

Yes, sir.

Here it is, Va.

Please be careful.

How did you fall into the water? What happened?

It was Chai. He knew I couldn’t swim.

But he deliberately pushed me into the water.

Sir.

Bring your lady inside.

- Thank you, sir. - Yes, sir.

Chai! Chai!

Come out at once, Chai!

Open the door!

When we were young, you once pushed me into the water!

And you did it again!

You wicked brother! You bastard!

You vile monster!

Do you want me to die that much, Chai?!

Fine. I shall die right before your eyes.

Open the door! Open it and kill me!

Open up and watch me die! Open it!

You shall not die today. You are a good person.

Both angels and humans love you. You need not fear.

When in need, you seek help from me.

When I was no longer of use, you pushed me to my death.

You claim that no one loves you.

Yet, do you love anyone, Chai?

I don't know…

I don't know why you hurt me or what you wanted.

But I have my heart and soul as well.

Why does our love differ, brother?

Huh?

I could not let you be in pain.

But you…

You were willing to kill me.

Were you really willing to kill me, Chai?!

You vile brother. You monster.

Help! Va fell into the canal!

Are you still crying, Va?

I'm only wondering

why Chai had to do it.

He pushed me into the canal

and called for help.

Was he calling for Khun Saengplarn?

He complains that you and Khun Saengplarn don't spend nights together.

Pervert. He only has obscenity on his mind.

Well, how does Khun Saengplarn's love for you

benefit Muen Vorachai, My Lady?

What made him try so hard? There was the medicine as well.

I do not know.

Perhaps he plans to use me to kill Khun Saengplarn.

But it shall not happen. He is unlike Chai.

He keeps meditating all day.

There's no way he would have filthy thoughts.

Ugh.

What is happening right now?

You shoot with your hands, but your legs are what matter most.

Stand firm. Watch where you place your weight.

Then, aim well.

Goodness' sake, this is a military camp! Who hangs clothes like this?!

Take them down!

But those are Aunt Tun's clothes, sir.

Aunt Tun?

Yes, sir.

Aunt Tun has been the cook at our camp since she was a young woman.

But now, her breasts are practically down to her knees.

Ming!

When you talk about women,

show some respect. Do not mention…

Now, if anyone mentions breasts, I shall kick them out of my camp!

Then, can we still teach about breastplates, sir?

Can't we talk about breast milk for babies, sir?

What about chicken breasts, sir?

All of you.

I shall not continue. Instruct them yourselves!

- Sir? - Sir.

- What is wrong with him? - I don't know.

Could he be afraid of breasts?

Well, none of you mention it.

Ming! Pay attention.

I'm paying attention.

But I shall not use my full strength.

If I do, you will get hurt.

Easy!

Do you want to kill me?

I don't have much time left. I shall leave soon.

We shall not meet again. I must learn quickly.

You…

Ouch!

Laor! Laor.

Are you hurt?

Let me see.

Oh. It is all red.

I'm fine. It will heal.

How is it fine?

Your beautiful face is now bruised.

What herbs do I need to use?

Get off of me.

It is fine if my face is wounded. I shall let no one see me as a woman.

I don't like it.

How bizarre of you. You shall be a woman no matter what.

No. Didn’t you claim to see me as a little brother?

I am your little brother.

Remember.

Do not ever see me as a woman again.

Again!

Quickly, Ming.

Laor! Laor! Careful!

It is late. Why are you up on the house?

I saw that the lamps were not lit,

so I came up to take a look.

Oh.

Since that day,

I haven't seen you.

Please accept my thanks for saving my life

- when I was about to drown. - Enough.

Do not mention what happened that day.

Yes, sir.

How about your plan to relocate to Mueang Khon?

I planned to leave in a month, sir.

Does it take that long?

I shall try to leave sooner.

Do you know about viewing distance?

Sir?

From now on,

stay at least as far away as my viewing distance.

You meant

stay away from you.

- Do not let you see me. - Correct.

Why must I be sad?

For heaven's sake!

Women really are trouble!

From now on, we must inspect every wagon

and every boat.

What are we searching for, sir?

This is the record of Muen Vorachai.

It states

which wagons carried which goods through this checkpoint each day.

Is Muen Vorachai in charge of this customs checkpoint?

If he is truly in league with Luang Bovorntat,

illegal goods will likely be trafficked

through this checkpoint.

Then, any wagons or boats not listed in the record

must be illegal.

Seize those people and goods.

Then we shall be able to apprehend Luang Bovorntat.

Take turns to keep watch.

One day, we shall succeed in bringing them to justice.

- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.

Your food and water, sir.

Sir, what are you watching?

I'm watching these people being obscene.

Sir, wait!

What are you going to do, sir?

Well, look at them! Such a disgusting sight!

They are husband and wife, sir. Seems like newlyweds.

Why does he seem frustrated lately?

Where is the whetstone?

I've put it here. Where did it go? Hey.

Where is the whetstone?

It is behind the water jars. I was using it the other day.

Please find it and leave, sir.

I can't find it. How am I supposed to leave? And…

And what's the matter with you?

Why do you need to hide?

- Come here. - Oh. Sir, I shall not go.

Come out here.

What's the matter? Huh?

- What's the matter? - Right.

You told me to stay away. Stay out of your sight.

And why are you holding me?

Didn't you say you wouldn't touch me or hold me?

Find the stone for me.

It is almost as big as a jar. Why couldn't you see?

Here!

- Hey! - The whetstone!

It almost hit my foot!

Aren't you invulnerable, sir?

A stone wouldn't be able to hurt you.

Still looking at me? Didn't you hate to see me?

Goodness!

I am exhausted too!

If his clothes have bloodstains, they must be boiled first.

Do it like this. Understood?

Ugh! Such a burden.

I can just request a new shirt for him

and that would be it.

Tian, new clothes are stiff and smell bad. It wouldn't be good.

Tian. Khun Sangplarn doesn't want any women near him.

So, you must learn

to take care of him, and you shall be able to take care of yourself as well.

- Yes, My Lady. - Hm.

Here. Try it.

Easy, is it?

I'm back.

Is it enough?

Almost. In about a week, we shall leave.

In one week's time,

we shall be out of this hell.

Yes.

I am ready as well.

If we make it

and can really start anew, are you going to court Lady Va?

Well…

I saw right through you. You have been in love with her since your youth.

I shall ask you, Saiyud.

Once you are free, what do you intend to do?

I…

I wish to ordain as a nun,

to wash away all the filth within me.

You bear no filth within you.

In my eyes, you are the most beautiful

and pure.

You are not what you think of, Saiyud.

Stop being hard on yourself.

Thank you.

Saiyud.

If I am to impress Lady Va, what must I do?

You said you're not interested in her.

Fine. Keep it to yourself.

Embrace and protect.

Drink this medicine.

I shall take care of you.

Saiyud.

Can you say it again?

It sounds really beautiful.

Women

are drawn to men

who embrace and protect them.

Embrace

and protect.

- Sir! Sir! - What?

Please hurry, sir. Two wagons are not listed in the record.

- Huh? - The goods must be illegal, sir.

Hey! We are being followed!

Pansaeng is chasing our wagons again.

It is not Pansaeng down there.

I am up here,

Luang Bovorntat.

Go!

You schemed to trick me.

This time, I shall bring you

before the magistrate as a rebel!

Stay put, Ming. We shall be free in no time.

His magic is merely trickery.

Luang Bovorntat's men.

You shall not get away this time.

Master Taen.

Is it Taen Seenil you are addressing?

Pansaeng!

As I thought,

you are a disciple of Taen Seenil.

Your master is hard to find, yet you are truly fortunate

to be able to see him so often.

Please bring me to him someday, My Lord.

I really wish to see him.

What is your business here?!

You claimed that I practice dark magic.

Yet, what made you learn that condemned sorcery yourself?

Because there is darkness like yourself.

To deal with darkness,

I need to hone dark arts!

For every insurrection, the noblemen would fight each other.

But only the citizens

would get injured and die.

The power you seek comes at the cost of war and death.

How could you ever find peace?

You shall never understand.

Your father was but a peasant

with a minor rank in a far-off region.

Yes.

Small cities have no soldiers to fight off thieves.

It was this that gave Taen Seenil the nerve

to storm the governor's house, my father's house, and massacre everyone!

Once the governor died,

people fled their homes in fear of Taen Seenil.

All are aware of Tean Seenil's reputation.

But no one remembers your father's name!

For this world

belongs only to the victors!

Are only noblemen entitled to be the victors?

Noblemen

were born to be victorious!

Those born in the palace, like me, are tigers!

Those born to poverty, like you, are deer, tigers' prey!

Tigers and deer are wild animals.

They are destined to be either hunters or prey,

unlike humans.

Humans bridge all disparities

with mercy.

If you are still human,

do not use those weapons to destroy the lives of other human beings.

Human beings were never equal.

Our fingers are not of equal lengths! What do you expect?!

Very well.

If you do not heed my words,

you shall face the consequences under the law.

A tiger

shall belong in a cage.

Consequences under the law.

Pansaeng! What are you going to do, Pansaeng?!

Pansaeng!

You are drunk now!

Come here! Come.

- What? - This way, My Lord.

- Come here! - Catch me, My Lord.

I shall find you!

Oh.

Hey.

Someone is reporting a crime, My Lord.

Who might it be?

It’s late. It’s time to rest.

Tell them to come back tomorrow.

I cannot, sir. This is an important matter.

There is arms trafficking, which could link to an insurrection, My Lord.

Who?

Luang Bovorntat, My Lord.

Luang Bovorntat?

I've chased the wagons

and discovered a large quantity of arms stored on his land.

An insurrection?

Yes, My Lord.

This is a significant matter.

I shall send my good men with you tonight.

Yes, My Lord.

Spread out. Watch this storage.

Do not let anyone in or out!

- Yes, sir! - Yes, sir!

Wait.

You need not leave.

The viewing distance can be determined.

But we could never do it with the distance in our hearts.

The distance in our hearts?

Well, about that whole viewing distance,

we shall forget it.

Are you, perhaps,

seeking to apologize to me, sir?

What?

You are such…

Hm.

Well, I shall apologize.

My apologies.

Yes, sir.

And what is it you are doing?

I am seeing Ayothaya.

Soon, I shall no longer see it.

Did you gather enough money?

I am almost ready.

In fact, all the royal gifts

bestowed during our wedding are yours.

You can take them. They are in a safe in my bedroom.

No, sir.

There is no greater wedding gift than you saving my life.

And I didn't truly marry you.

It is not right to take them.

You have my thanks, sir.

Ayothatya under the moonlight

is truly beautiful.

It is.

Its beauty is to die for.

I shall gladly sacrifice myself

for such peace.

And I did achieve it today.

I protected the city from the insurrection.

Did you, sir?

Are they the owners of the illegal caravan from before?

Perhaps you cannot tell me.

It is fine.

Do you know

what the greatest kind of happiness is?

It is a good night's sleep.

No anxious feelings.

No waking up during the night.

No worries about life.

This is the Ayothaya of my dreams.

A peaceful night

in a serene city.

If I leave this place,

I shall sleep soundly at night.

It’s just a pity that it’s not Ayothaya.

Wait, Lady Va.

There is one thing I must ask you.

I am aware that you enjoy crafting perfume.

So, I want to know if you have any perfume

that shall help me sleep.

Jasmine's fragrance.

Mix it with…

this.

We shall try this scent.

Hm.

Here.

This is not it.

It is not?

No.

Oh.

Then, what scent are you talking about?

It is unlike any other scent in the house.

I have been searching for it,

but there is nothing like it.

Oh.

What? Sir.

Since my youth,

nightmares have plagued me, born of resentment and loneliness.

But that night, I had a deep sleep

- and dreamed a good dream, unlike before. - That night?

Which flower is used to make your perfume?

It is from various flowers, but mainly bullet woods.

No. This is not the one.

Well, perfume smells different on each person's skin.

Shall I never again know such a peaceful night’s rest?

I shall make

the candle to fill your room with this scent tomorrow.

Really?

Yes.

My Lord, Luang Bovorntat is amassing arms for the insurrection.

You've hidden arms and saltpeter.

I have evidence and witnesses.

Do you defend his honor

or conspire with him in rebellion?

Stop at once, Pansaeng!

What are you planning?

Where did you get this much money?

Aon, get away!

I hereby summon evil spirits

to feast upon your sinister soul, Muen Vorachai.

I only know that today I have some hope.

Only hope is enough.

Lady Pim. Khun Saengplarn doesn't wish to marry you

because he truly loves me.

Are you in love with me?

You haven’t bedded each other, have you?
