Original subtitles

It has been nine full moons.

We have hunted it to the north and along the eastern border.

Eight of the king's most honorable men have given their lives during this quest.

Their bodies so mangled, they'll barely be accepted to the heavens.

It's coming. I feel the thunder of its wings.

The air grows hotter.

We cannot take another loss.

Now is the time to end this.

Steel yourselves, men. Stay in formation.

Where is it?

- It's playing games with us. - Steady yourself, Richard.

This infernal beast's demise has eluded us for too long.

I am ready for you.

Stay in rank.

I will even the score.

Enough, James.

Here it comes.

Forward.

- With your permission, sir, I will lead. - Wait for it.

You have a death wish, Thomas.

Not yet. Wait until it exposes its weak spot.

Now!

Defensive positions.

- It knows what we're trying to do. - Hold it together, James.

Draw it in.

- I will make a strike. - Back in rank. That's an order.

Fall back.

That was a foolish move. He knew better than that.

It's heading back to the west.

And so should we.

Do you think the dragon will return to the kingdom?

We chased it from one side of our land to the next.

It has ravaged our numbers down to just us.

How can just three knights slay that beast? And what of the kingdom?

The king's army will protect the kingdom.

Who'll lead the army if none of us are left to lead them?

We're not irreplaceable, my old friend.

Our numbers may have dwindled, but have tested it.

We found its weakness and we could've beaten it today.

It was only if James hadn't broken rank.

But he did.

His courage and desire to protect his brothers led him to his death.

- Nobody can have such luck. - With honor.

With honor.

Blood,

fury,

dragon strength.

Blood,

fury,

dragon strength.

Blood,

fury,

dragon strength.

Relive again!

KNIGHTS OF THE DAMNED

170 YEARS AGO THE REALM OF NAZROTH WAS IN CHAOS.

A TIME OF VICIOUS CIVIL WAR AND SORCERY

THAT TORE THE IDYLLIC WORLD INTO 12 KINGDOMS.

THE MOST RESPECTED AND POWERFUL KINGDOM

IS THAT OF ZALDAH, WHOSE KING XALVADOR HAS ENDEAVOURED

TO KEEP HARMONY IN THE FACE OF NEIGHBOURING KINGDOMS PETTY FIGHTING.

THE BEASTS OF THE DARK KINGDOM AND THE DRAGONS

HAVE NOT BEEN SEEN FOR GENERATIONS

AND THERE HAS BEEN RELATIVE PEACE IN THE LAND.

BUT 9 MONTHS AGO THE DRAGON SCREAMS ONCE AGAIN FILLED THE SKIES

AND KING XALVADOR'S WESTERN CASTLE WAS BOMBARDED

WITH UNPROVOKED ATTACKS.

TO RESTORE PEACE AND ENSURE THE SAFETY OF HIS PEOPLE

THE KING ORDERED 12 OF HIS BEST KNIGHTS TO SLAY THE BEAST.

THE ROYAL WARRIORS CHASED THE DRAGON AWAY FROM ZALDAH,

A FIGHT OF TEETH AND BLADE, FIRE AND STEEL.

AS EACH BATTLE CLAIMED ANOTHER LIFE,

THE KNIGHTS FEEL A DARKNESS GROWING IN THE LAND...

NAZROTH IS CHANGING AGAIN...

Halt.

Who goes there?

Henry?

Is that you?

For a man who writes such beautiful poetry, Thomas,

you rarely appreciate the beauty that's all around you.

I do appreciate beauty.

To fight with such heroism is a thing of beauty, Thomas. You do that every day.

Are you saying I'm a thing of beauty, George?

We are brother in arms. Let us leave it at that.

So today?

Ah, today...

Today, we shall do battle under the glorious king's name

where we shall slay that beast and turn everything right in this kingdom.

The key to killing a beast is down to its whys and wherefores.

This one eludes me.

It's just a dragon, Thomas. It doesn't know any whys or wherefores.

- You don't know that. - It just kills.

So do we.

But something has changed in this dragon.

Violence wasn't always her folly. Something made her attack the castle.

Nowhere else in our kingdom nor in our neighbor's kingdoms.

I've chased down many beasts before.

Every one gave up their secrets before they died.

Not all of your women were beasts, Thomas.

But each one of them gave up their secrets. That's for sure.

But this dragon, it was a peaceful sort before all of this.

It stayed away from populated areas.

And now it seems this particular one

wants a bite out of the powerful king and the kingdom itself.

You know, I admire it.

I admire it for evading death.

There aren't many dragons and all they have are adversaries.

Surely, its strength and its will to survive will fade

and solitude will kill it for us.

It will survive alone, until in battle it dies alone.

That is the king's orders.

We must make haste.

We have a quest to fulfill and we are down to just three.

- Are you keen to do battle, George? - Keen to keep order.

- That means battle. - You remind me of when you were a child.

Always the first to battle and always against the bigger boys.

They were trying to steal your mother's bread.

You nearly killed the poor wretches.

- You had my back. - How could I not?

Do you ever think of the kingdom?

Not as much as I used to from whence we began these adventures.

King's orders will take us on the righteous path.

Be quick with the water. I'll be with your horses.

I know you're tired, old friend.

It's nearly over.

Yeah, I miss her, too.

What happened?

Water demons.

- You? - White wolf.

How did you escape?

Unseen archers in the woods somewhere.

Ours erupted from the forest, killing the beasts.

Let's move.

This is dark magic, George, the darkest.

Pull yourself together, Thomas.

We'll soon be behind the safety of the castle walls.

This, I fear, penetrates even the castle walls, George.

This is deeper, this we should have fear of.

It's taunting us.

It's just a dragon, Thomas, it knows nothing of taunting.

It does. It's drawing us out for the final blow.

Then, let's not disappoint it.

If the dragon is headed home, it bodes well for us, we'll get reinforcements.

If not, we continue until King Xalvador's wishes are fulfilled

and the dragon is slain.

While it is here fighting us,

it is not besieging the castle and killing our people.

Trust me, both of you. We will be home soon enough.

It's been many months, we're down to three.

We could've picked up reinforcements along the way.

Plenty of folk willing to join us.

Gather your things.

There's not many who could stay that and still be standing.

Kettlage village is up ahead. There, we rest for the night.

George.

Careful. He has a madness.

A fun evening of Ale and bar fights by the looks of things.

Leprosy? Some kind of sickness?

Seek religious council.

Many gods and their servants will tend to you.

I'll have some of what you've been having.

Hey, baby, won't come along where the sun is shining bright?

I promise if you do that, I'd be taking care of you for an afternoon delight

then she says, "Hey, now, hold your horses,

I'm sure that we got time." But then I say,

"Hey, ho, I'm sure we do, as long as I got you."

We need rest for the night.

They're not locals, we should be cautious.

I'm George Letholdus, King Xalvador's royal...

King Xalvador's royal warriors.

Guards, please,

warm yourselves.

These are the king's royal warriors.

And maybe the sun will rise again or maybe not.

Please sit. I'll bring you whatever you wish.

Wine and four jugs of beer.

Please.

Luanda,

take these drinks

and warm these gentlemen.

Never trust anyone, do you? Hey!

Bryce, I'mma tell you, don't you start in my bar.

They're the king's men. Yeah.

Same for you!

He's calling you, your boyfriend.

I'm warning you, okay?

Who is the gentleman who speaks in such hostility?

Oh,

he's just an untrusting soul. He's nothing.

What's his name?

I don't remember.

They ask of his name.

It's Bryce.

Bryce Jefferson.

Now, please.

Have you any more thoughts of going home, George, since we're so close?

You must go home.

Oh, yes. To your mystery lady friend. What was her name?

Never you mind.

The stable girl, that's it. It's been a long time.

We'll return home and the beast is slain.

If the dragon does head to the castle, then so shall we, not before.

- To our fallen. - With honor.

Four of your best and a room for the night.

Katori's.

They're strange kingdom.

Female warriors, huh?

Have caution, my friend.

Be careful for they'll have your tongue.

They'll have it all right.

Ladies.

You know, I've fallen for you.

Come have a drink with us.

We're fine here. But you may take a seat at our table.

Here we go again.

You're from Katori, right?

We are.

- What are you doing in the King's land? - He's your king, not ours.

But it's still his land.

We're not here to spy, if that's what concerns you.

We're just passing through.

My name is Dimia.

Phrowenia, Kateya, Isabel.

You are George and Richard of the King Xalvador's warriors, are you not?

- And you are? - Thomas.

And you say you're not a spy, you're very well-informed.

Your reputation precedes you.

Wait, how come mine doesn't?

You said you were passing through.

Where to?

I'm sure you know already, Sir George.

Maybe.

Humor me.

We're traveling to the southern border of the Atayan Kingdom.

- You're not gonna start a war, are you? - No.

Simply to close a matter sensitive to the Katori people.

You're gonna seek revenge on the Atayan soldiers?

It is what is right.

I trust your silence will be ensured.

We have no war with the Katoris.

Our silence is ensured.

May the gods watch over you.

Where were the gods when the Atayan soldiers savaged that poor girl?

Who were they watching over then?

With every battle, I wonder more and more the intention of them,

even the existence of the gods.

For those of us who has survived too many battles, we often feel that way.

We are surrounded by bloodshed and trauma and stalked by the shadow of the death.

But if you look close enough, there's beauty and wonder all around us.

True enough.

And whilst blood still remains inside us, it's not a time for sadness.

Innkeep.

Oh, more. More.

White tips.

Just like at the water.

How will I ever live it down, rescued by a woman?

Go on!

Hey, baby, won't you come along where the sun is shining bright?

I promise if you do that, I'd be taking care of you for an afternoon delight

then she says hey, now, hold your horses, I'm sure that we got time,

then I say, hey ho, I'm sure we do

as long as I got you now

When I was sitting over there earlier and listening to their conversations,

- there have been some attacks here. - In this village?

So they say. You can tell drunk men and their stories.

They call them the Fury.

The Fury. That's catchy, I guess

Maybe it's true.

If the stories are real,

the threat to the Royal family and our Kingdom is greater than ever.

The Dragon is heading God knows where, now this?

My friend, we've been on the road for eight months.

You need a rest as much as I do. It's just a few hours till sunrise.

The attacks mainly happen at night.

Shelters through the night would be nice.

Are you spying on us, girl?

So you wanna know about the Fury.

That's right, they exist.

Wretched,

deformed,

furious.

- How do you know all this? - I've seen them.

Well, in the shadows,

skulking through the darkness.

And where was this?

Northern Territory,

three weeks ago.

I rode off as fast as I could.

- How brave of you. - Are you questioning me, woman?

You bitch.

Back off!

Would everyone just calm down?

Fight!

Enough!

What?

He went for his sword.

Under the command of the King's royal guard,

you will all stand down immediately.

These visitors are our allies. There will be no more of this.

That's it.

We're closed for the night.

Go home!

Go on all of you.

I trust you have rooms for us to rest our heads.

Certainly, Sir.

The Knights and their allies are always welcome.

Thank you.

Get some rest. We leave at dawn.

Leave me alone!

Restful night or dreaming of warrior women?

You look rough old friend.

I feel like I've had a barrel of Galdarian wine last night.

You did.

Now we're all here.

We're no longer chasing Dragons this day.

We have to push hard to make it to the castle by tomorrow.

What if we do encounter these fury en route?

We slay them as we would any other threat.

Once we were twelve, now we're only three.

I know.

We just have to make it to the castle.

There's be a battalion of soldiers ready to protect the people of our Kingdom.

We all have loved ones there, do we not?

- We do. - And what of the Katori women?

I assume they left at sunrise.

Eager to reach their mark and return to their borders.

We need to be cautious my friend, there are dark powers at play.

That there are, brother.

That there are.

In days of olde when Knights were bold and the world was flat as parchment,

we would walk around and not fall down...

Your Highness, Princess Elizabeth.

- Your Highness, Princess Elizabeth. - If you please...

Enough.

Continue.

The news I bring may not be for a lady's ears.

Her ears have endured far worse than any news you can bring, Nicolas.

As have my eyes.

Very well, Your Highness, Prince Favian.

Last night we had a breach of the village boundary from the East.

Three of them. They're getting closer.

What would father have us do?

My Lord?

For goodness sake, Favian.

I'm not the King.

I say we wait for father's order

as to what to do about this, Fury disease.

Sir, your father bestowed upon you

a great battalion of men to protect this region,

but you have them scattered in small groups.

Forgive me, my lord, but I feel our soldiers are ineffective in this way.

- We are losing men to unseen... - I am happy with our current strategy.

Your troops will send movements of this Fury,

but only to me.

- But, my Lord, I feel we... - Ah, thank you, Nicolas.

You are right.

No amount of Fury blood

can match what sears my eyes and haunts my ears within these walls.

Do not spread the word, Darling.

We don't want these peasants

clambering inside the castle walls, now do we?

Our father would have already had them inside if he had known.

You have the same weakness as father, Elizabeth.

Cursed with misguided compassion,

yet little shown to your dearest brother.

Now, tell me,

how long before they reach us?

They're already at the village.

What do you think about these rumors of furious beasts?

There is fear in the air.

There's much talk of strange things stalking the shadows.

We've been to the farthest reaches of the kingdom, we haven't seen anything.

They're merely rumors.

There will be proof there's nothing more.

These rumors are of the dead walking,

these rumors are of the dead fighting with unquenchable thirst.

- They're too prolific for us to ignore. - The dead?

- Ridiculous. - Yes.

In the village they spoke of bodies ravaged by animals

- and many missing entirely. - Where?

The Katori women said in the Gelder Valley.

Where the fast river comes down from the mountain.

These are just stories of the dead, utter nonsense.

We shouldn't waste our time discussing it.

The legend says they were dead, now they're not.

Now, there's something else.

What?

Something's over there.

Well,

that one got away.

Are you sure hunting is your forte, Bryce?

I'm the village's best hunter,

maybe the lands.

Well, from what I hear, you were bested by a woman at the tavern.

I was not.

Anyway, there was four of them.

Now this gets interesting.

So, you were beaten by a girl... oh, four girls.

They were Katoris, Milli.

Yeah.

I was defending our honor, our village's honor.

They attacked all of us.

And those three royal knights.

They didn't just attack me.

They attacked all of us.

Oh, yes. I heard some of the king's men were in town.

There's nothing better than a knight.

Don't you think?

Men of honor?

Us townsmen,

we're honorable, too.

We look after the people in the villages, towns.

Anyway,

this is why we're here,

to learn how to hunt,

how to kill.

You really think those stories are real?

Are they not the words of those seeking to strike fear into our heart?

Listen to me, Milli.

They are real.

And that is why we're here.

I don't know how many of them there are

I've come for them.

I need you to be ready.

Why else did we come?

That's big. What are you gonna do about it?

Not me.

You.

Aim for the heart.

Right beneath the shoulder.

What if I can't kill it?

I'll finish him.

Just make sure you get a good strike.

I don't think I can kill something.

That's exactly why we're here.

You need to learn how to take a life.

How to survive what is coming.

I'll go west.

I'll finish it if you don't get a clean kill.

You got a spear.

So, make it count.

Millicent, no, run!

Everything all right, Thomas?

I'm good. Just worry about your own health.

I've warned you before. Waking up with a sore head from ale

is better than getting something from women like that.

Did she tell you that she loves you?

Love is the poison chalice of my life. Heartbreak sits at bottom of that cup.

You never can resist that last sip, can you?

No, sir, I could not.

You still blame all your misfortunes on women.

And you never thought someone could understand you.

- You got me an antidote? - An antidote?

I've seen your antidote. You've slept with a different woman in every village.

I don't think that's working for him.

Nope. Nor I.

Wish I could get me an antidote for this.

We better all get some rest. We can let him sleep it off.

Don't you worry about me. Keep your eyes open for those Fury things.

I'll take first watch.

Richard, you rest up.

- I'll take the first. - I'm fine. It's okay.

That's an order. Rest well.

You're a good man, George.

You're a good man.

No.

Dead of flesh and the diseased in blood.

Thomas.

What?

Thomas!

Stand down.

Do not become my enemy, brother.

You're delirious.

You were poisoned?

Wake up.

This is dark magic.

Thomas, wake up!

George, what are you doing?

What am I doing?

- Brother. - Brother.

Yes, brother.

You were sleepwalking again, only this time fighting as well.

For the love of God, you almost killed me.

I did? I'm sorry. I didn't... I mean, I had no...

Just then when you were asleep, what were you dreaming of?

I don't know. I woke up to see his blade pointed at me.

Come on, man. Think.

A rush of things, violence for the most of it.

But I dream about violence most nights.

This is why your nights are so disturbed.

You have to come to peace with the things we see.

It was different.

I felt anger.

I often see violence, but I never feel angry in life.

I don't carry hatred.

I know we all serve a purpose regardless of who we hurt.

There's always belief in what we do.

We all believe that what we're doing is right.

So, I can't hate even enemies.

But this time, real anger coursed through my veins, hatred.

I think you've been poisoned.

Maybe the Katori women weren't as friendly as we first thought.

Maybe all this talk of creatures and Fury

was about distracting us from their true intentions.

Maybe they were of poisonous intent.

But the story of the Fury came from the villagers.

It's passed. Whatever was in my blood has passed, George.

I feel fine.

Come on.

I'll keep this just for now.

I haven't seen that dragon for a while.

- Do you think he's reached the castle? - I pray that it hasn't.

The final push. You're gonna make it?

Something's wrong. There is a dark magic in the air.

Let's move.

- Help! - Help us.

Open the gate!

You have locked them out there to die. Those creatures are out there!

There will be untold pain upon this land!

Your love for the people is why father favors you to replace him.

Yet his wisdom doesn't seem to understand

people are not as important as their leaders.

There are no leaders without people, you fool.

Dare to call me a fool again, sister,

and I will punish you in ways that your mind does not comprehend.

I am the first born, the son of the king.

I, alone,

will rule this kingdom upon our father's passing.

You had better get used to serving me, sister,

in the ways your king will see fit.

Yes, my lord.

Come, Nicolas.

We have work to do.

We're going on foot and with caution.

What's happened here?

Where are the villagers?

Where are the soldiers?

Could the dragon have done this?

There would be more damage.

Maybe they fled to the safety of the castle.

Whatever happened here, our priority is the royal family.

Let's get out of here before something bad happens.

I guess the stories were true.

Looks like we're heading for a pretty good fight.

When have we not? This is just another day.

Take them.

Better get on your feet, old friend.

Come on, we can't carry you and fight.

I'm fit to fight, my friend.

Nothing can stop me.

What of the horse?

We can't go back.

Curious.

They're just beasts.

Hard to kill.

How far does this fury spread?

Richard, get him up.

I'm fine.

Come on, on your feet, Thomas.

Saved you again. It's becoming a habit.

Yeah. It is.

You said you were going to the border.

We were overrun by these Fury. They've cut us off.

They're coming from all directions.

They're everywhere. Watch out!

A little more even.

A little.

Is he hurt bad?

He's losing blood. He's weak.

Who you calling weak?

You haven't lost your pride with your blood, then.

Nope. Get me up.

You okay?

In much pain?

Ask again and I'm gonna show you much pain.

Fair enough.

How'd you do that?

It's a long story.

- How far is it your castle? - A mile or so.

- May I ask that we... - Yeah.

Of course. You can seek shelter in the castle boundaries.

You better take all their weapons from them like they took mine. Untrust.

Ignore him. It's a long story.

I've never seen anything like this before.

Nor I.

We have traveled and fought in every region of this kingdom.

Never like this.

We were supposed to meet a contact in the Retan township,

but it was decimated.

Bodies everywhere,

like they were ripped from limb to limb.

The surrounding towns were deserted. That's when we started to see them.

We hadn't really seen them.

We're starting to think the stories were just stories.

Then we got to our village, and...

they're no myth.

Look, I really appreciate you taking us in.

Foreign warriors inside the castle walls.

These are strange times.

I think both our peoples will need allies.

One step at a time.

Defensive positions over him.

Move!

- We need to get inside the castle. - No arguments from me.

- Is he alive? - Yes.

- Conscious? - Barely.

Thank the gods.

Where's lsabel?

She's gone.

Get him up.

Sir, we must make haste.

Prepare the horses.

Where are we going?

We?

We're going nowhere, sister.

I am... we are going...

- A scouting mission. - Now?

But why would you go out there? You never leave the castle without...

Silence, woman!

I'm sorry.

I'm leaving you here to rot

whilst I ride to safety.

This Kingdom will be overrun

with a bigger army than anyone has ever seen before,

more powerful and more destructive,

so that all twelve kingdoms will fall at my feet.

And Father

will see that I destroyed

an entire army of his

and get nothing but a royal finger wag.

And my so-called father

would rather have you

on the throne than his own son.

You are not my brother.

Father needs to realize

that this time requires a powerful man,

not a silly little girl.

I did not choose to lead, Favian.

It's father's will and while he's still alive, he's our King.

How could you question that?

Father's will you say?

You think he doesn't know about you and your Knight?

You think I don't know

when I wanted you

to lay with me.

I'm your sister, Favian.

Which is why

I need an army

of my own,

to wipe out

the nayers and take a grip,

to take control of this charter

and rip out the hearts

of those that try and deny my birthright.

Even your own father?

Everyone!

I will fill the streets and rivers

with blood of anyone that chooses to oppose me.

I will rule this Kingdom

and I will rule

every Kingdom!

What have you done?

Take that

to the dungeon. Ensure it's locked away with the others.

Now!

And wait for me by the west gate.

Now, sister,

I think

- we should have a little chat. - Favian, please!

Thomas!

Thomas, wait.

George, it's not his fault. He did not betray, you just remember that.

Thomas!

Are you sure?

End him.

Rise.

Focus your rage.

Tear their flesh

and disease their blood.

Open the door. Undo the bolts. We're the King's Knights.

Open the door.

Lower the blade.

But, Sir, they are not our infantry.

They fight with us to protect the Kingdom.

Obey my commands and release her.

Never question me again, Ralph.

I'm sorry, Sir George.

How's your leg?

It's okay.

I'm done.

After this battle, I am done. I'm never fighting again.

I doubt that.

Where is everyone?

Let me take you to the princess.

Happy to be home?

Everything's back to normal.

Sort of.

She made me wait for you. I'm worried for her safety.

Your Highness!

- Princess. - George!

What happened to you? Who did this?

Favian. He's gone mad with power.

Where's the King?

He's in the Northern Castle overseeing mother and her illness.

He knows not of what goes on here.

The last weeks we have been plagued by this dark force.

Every messenger we have sent out has been killed. The villages are empty.

Favian has something to do with it.

He was talking of a huge army he had raised.

And there's more.

Father sent you on a mission to kill the Dragon that besieged the castle.

- I know why it was attacking us. - Go on.

Favian had a dragon egg. He talked of more in the dungeons below.

That explains why it's attacking the castle.

They've never come this far in before.

Mother wants her eggs back.

Where's Favian? We must stop him.

We're never gonna catch him.

Yes. Secure the castle.

How did you end up with our Knights?

The Fury have overrun most of the surrounding areas.

Your men were kind enough to offer us shelter, My Lady.

The two of you?

There were more of us.

I'm sorry.

We have to get the princess to safety.

I'm not more important than anyone else.

You are to the Xalvadian people and to the King.

- What is it? - You're gonna wanna see this.

Oh, my God. The beasts.

That's his army. How can he create such a thing?

- They'll overrun us! - Hold your nerve.

George, they will eventually find a way in.

And when they do,

they'll run to the North Castle and slaughter everyone.

But the soldiers, the Xaldanian army...

The army won't see them coming.

Even if they do, they're damn near impossible to kill.

They'll slaughter every man, every woman, every child.

They won't stop until we're wiped out.

We must do something to save our people.

Ralph, with me.

Richard, food and water for everyone else, yourself included.

I'll save you some.

The eggs are through there, sir. I'll search for them.

Bring back what you find.

There's only one egg, sir.

What do you plan to do?

George!

A thousand footsteps moving as one are heading towards us.

I know a safe place for the Princess, if it pleases you.

- We'll never be safe, we must stop them. - How can we?

Ralph, take the Princess to the stables and saddle the fastest horses.

I'm not leaving.

Dimia, Phrowenia,

- you, too. - And you?

What will you do?

We'll distract them.

Not for long enough. You need us with you.

She's right, George.

If you order it, I'll stay and fight. But is the one we run from.

We need to protect the princess.

The Princess will be fine with me,

if you need to stay, sir.

I don't trust him.

- Nor I. - Let's go to the horses.

Yes, all of us. Let's go.

Fury.

Get back.

Now!

He's one of them.

Richard, take them to the tunnels and leave.

I'll meet you by the bridge of the river.

- But, George, there's safety in... - I will hear no more of this.

Go.

What of the egg?

Leave it with me.

- George, please. - If you love me,

if you love your people, you must go.

What are you doing?

Staying with you.

- There's no need for it. - I will not have you stand alone.

- I owe you a life debt. - Pay it by protecting the princess.

The road will be fraught with danger. Richard cannot defend it all.

As you wish.

I do.

Then I'll stay.

Let's see if it's safe.

- What are you doing? - Ensuring the future of our Kingdom.

No.

This is for the Kingdom.

How many arrows left?

I'll make them count.

Hurry, Princess. These tunnels lead to safety.

- How much longer do we wait? - Until he gets here.

We can't leave a King's knight behind.

Any longer and we'll leave at least one.

I still got some fight left in me yet.

I thought you were done fighting.

Time to go.

- We can't. - She's right.

- He ordered me to get you to safety. - Wait.

You made it!

I thought you were gonna have horses.

You're not dead yet?

After you.

I'm fine.

I know.

Are you fit to fight?

Always, sir. Always.

As are we.

You're not going home after the mission?

We will soon enough. First we'll help you get your princess to the Kingdom.

Your Highness,

we have to get you back to the King safe.

- Your brother... - I know.

It's becoming clear that the dark forces ravaging our land are just the beginning.

We must rally the troops and protect the people.

There's a war coming.

Blood of the dragonlings bring them near immortal life.

Rise my fallen fury,

rise my fallen soul.

Feel the power of my command.

Feel the rage and fury building up inside of you.

Prepare for war!
