The Bastard Executioner...

Father Ruskin
and Master Gawain's son Luca

have been missing
for two days now.

The boy was
in the priest's charge.

Our priest made no mention
of a pilgrimage?

The boy doesn't know the woman.

Or Templar.

Return him to his village.

We will release
the child unharmed,

after you lead us
to the seraphim.

CORBETT: I will let you both
complete your vengeance.

If our reeve and Sir Locke
should meet an untimely death,

I will assume it was

but a risk of their sworn duty.

What do you know?

ANNORA:
They were taken.

Because of me.

Because of you?

Who took them?!

Where's Luca?

Do not howl at me
with such anger!

I will howl like a devil!

Wilkin, no.

My son.

The punisher's wife
seems settled for now.

Yes, but my deception will
not last beyond sunup.

She will expect the priest
and her son to have returned.

Then I will spin a tale

that puts her mind at ease,
Baroness.

And no better one to spin a tale
than my inventive maiden.

Thank you, Isabel.

You care for him deeply.

This man who pretends
to be our punisher.

I do.

Well, then it seems
you have acquired

the adventure your spirit
longs for, dear Love.

Yes.

That is not my name.

Toran Pritchard.

You killed a woman

Stabbed her in the belly

A beautiful,

robust woman.

She was my wife.

And the punisher...

Hiding behind

under our very noses.

Make haste

with your vengeance.

No plea for mercy?

I follow the orders

I earned no mercy.

But you have earned

It is most fitting

No plea for mercy?

This place holds no mercy.

No mercy, perhaps.

But it still holds honor.

and I will kill you.

But with this,

our debt is clear.

And the lie that binds me here?

If I knew of such a lie
and I didn't take your head,

I would stand equally accused.

You and the punisher
have earned your place here.

The Book of the Nazarene.

My devotion--
has it all been a lie?

No.

Your devotion is true.

That is what the pages reveal.

Jesus was just
a man, Wilkin.

But God spoke
through him.

Filled his heart

with profound love

and divine wisdom.

He knew that devotion

was a singular experience

between man and God.

A church built to glorify that

could only lead

to greed and destruction.

History has proven
that over and over.

Countless lives lost
in the service of faith.

How could a loving God

ever wish that on his children?

And the gospels?

Filled

with much of God's truth

and much of man's persuasion.

Why does the seraphim
keep this a secret?

The seraphim carries

the Nazarene's words
on their flesh.

In his original text.

To be passed on

from generation to generation,

so it can never be lost.

It will be given to man

when the truth of the pages
can be understood.

The Rosula never want it
to be understood.

That is why they hunt you down.

To destroy this truth.

There is always one
who carries the blood.

And 12 disciples

who guide and protect.

They have already killed

four of my 12.

You carry the blood.

It was God's intention

to have Jesus deliver

these teachings to man.

His blood will be
the one to do it,

when the time
is made clear.

His blood.

The lineage of the Nazarene.

I am his blood.

A descendant

of Jesus the Nazarene.

And when my mate was revealed...

...we passed on the lineage.

Are you the nun and warrior
I've seen in my visions?

We have both been many people

with many names.

We have watched you,

guided you,

loved you

from afar.

Am I that blood?

You have learned much truth...

...much too soon.

DARK MUTE:
Truth...

that is needed to save the boy.

Yea.

Luca.

How are we to fight
such a powerful foe?

You will do as Jesus did.

Reach out your hand

to the ones you love

and ask for help.

Good morning.

Perhaps.

She awaits you.

If you deceive her
or cause her harm in any way,

you will be met with the wrath
of her maiden.

And I assure you, sir,
your torture devices

cannot match the pain

I will bring.

Understood.

Thank you for allowing us
the privacy of your chambers.

Yes, of course.

Have you learned anything
of the healer?

Yes.

She knows who holds the priest
and the boy.

Although her story is
indeed extraordinary,

it is the only truth we have.

Extraordinary truth seems
to be our fate.

Yes.

Luca and Father Ruskin
were taken

by men looking for Annora.

They saw the priest
visit her cave

before she knew
there was danger.

They assumed he knew
where she fled.

Ruskin was watching Luca

when they came for him.

Who are these men?

The Knights Rosula,

a clandestine order
under the charge

of the archdeacon of Windsor.

They believe Annora and others
like her pose a threat

to the Church.

That is why Robinus was here,

not to examine accounts,

but to start the search
for Annora.

What possible threat
could a gentle, aged woman

present to the Church?

She has ancient documents

in her possession
that cast doubt

upon the Church's
most significant teachings.

I find it difficult to believe

that a man as pious
as Archdeacon Robinus

would endanger the life
of a child.

Yea.

But we must meet Robinus
and his Rosula

to find out if it is indeed
a harsh truth

or the delusion
of a potion maker.

You do not think
it is a delusion.

I do not, my lady.

I believe Annora to be true

and deeply pious.

(sighs)

To post a military campaign

against the Pope's
most trusted archdeacon.

It cannot be the shire's men
who take on this task.

That would put you
and your reign

at risk.

I need men who are willing
to fight under no banner

but that of friendship

and the faith that I lead them
to the right cause.

I have that faith.

And so do my friends
who are in servitude.

They have fought alongside
me many a time.

If they take on
this dangerous task,

might their sentences
be reduced?

Yes, I will see to that.

Thank you, Love.

I will need Milus.

Acquiring other skilled men.

I have no secrets
from our chamberlain.

I will ask but
one more time.

Priest to priest,

in service of your holy vow,

where does the
seraphim hide?

As I've told
your most pious master

more times
than I can recall,

this cave is the only place

I ever met the healer

and the scarred Templar.

(growls)
Taking the life of a child,

is that in service
of your vows?

He will be martyred

if it forces the truth
that gives us what we need.

Cut the boy's throat.

No!

They hide at Heaven's Eye,

in the thick briars
of the hillsides.

How do you know this, boy?

My father, sir.

He buys remedies
from the gray woman.

I've traveled
with him many times.

Search the briars.

I want them alive.

What crime brought 20 years

I was the scribe here,

the baron's first
year of rule.

This young

Teutonic Knight
would not cease taunting me.

Mocking my Jew face.

Every day, I let that hatred
pass through me

like a familiar wind.

The wind that leaves
the burn of madness.

I pierced him

four times with my dagger.

He lived.

I was tortured,

hung from high chains

for six months.

Then...

sent back to my stacks

to die.

Four stabs to the knight...

In his back?

No.

Dagger to dagger.

Face to face.

I was raised

in a dirt hole, good Moor,

by a pack of devout

and angry Turkish wolves.

Torah and survival.

Some of the skills
I acquired serve me.

Others bring only pain.

Your manner

you come from no dirt hole.

Nobility?

Scholars.

Gentle and decent.

They taught me to think freely,

to question.

To push for truth.

A skill that served me

until the conquest.

Then brought pain.

Exiled?

Escaped.

with her father,

made it out through
the Andorran trade routes.

My brother and I...

found false passage

on a labor ship.

Our final port...

Paradise.

(sighs)

This is a great risk
you propose, Baroness,

inspired by the tale
of a strange woman

you hardly know.

A risk taken to
save the lives

of our priest and a child.

I have reason to believe
her story is true.

Our punisher would be
that reason.

Yes.

The man we both know
as Wilkin Brattle.

I see your bond has grown
to inspire truth.

A truth you have known

from the moment
he stepped through our gates.

Your ability
to turn complications

into advantages
is what makes you

such a valuable chamberlain.

Was that a compliment, my lady?

I believe it was.

(sighs)

I will provide the men

to take back the priest
and the boy.

The only thing
that I ask in return

is that you give
heartfelt consideration

to Baron Pryce.

That my lady
stays open

to the prospect of a marriage
that will protect our shire.

I will stay open to
all... prospects.

Thank you, Baroness.

Despite your
aggressive, secretive

and often
illicit tactics,

I am quite fond of you, Milus.

I believe you
left out "godless."

I'm fond of you as well,
dear Love.

Why am I still
confined, maiden?

Lady Love needs
to be certain

that no one has heard
of your attack on her.

Word of such things can
spread like a dry fire.

You will be free as soon as
she confirms its secrecy.

She promised I could see my boy.

Luca must be deep with worry
about his mother.

And you shall see him,

as soon as he returns
from his hunting venture.

Hunting?

The baroness said the priest
took him fishing.

Yes.

Hunting for fish.

Big fish.

That need to be ripped from
the stream by pike and hook,

then wrestled to the ground.

Time well spent
for a boy.

(door opens, closes)

(baby fusses)

And you have no doubt
that we will find

these Rosula
at the coves?

ANNORA: They will use the boy to
pull the truth from the priest.

Then wait for my return
at the coves.

WILKIN: We can expect
at least two legions

of Rosula Knights, all skilled.

And very deadly.

No fear of dying.

And we bring how many men
to this fight?

I can recruit
a half legion or more

of knights and horsemen
that will fight for pay.

No concern for decree.

LADY LOVE: If I am able
to find out their whereabouts,

I should be able to bring some
familial help to our table.

I know another
who would be willing

to trade risk
for years of servitude.

Luca.

Son!

Who are you?

Where is my son?

What have you done
with my boy?!

Hideous demon!

CORBETT: I will have
my men ready by midday.

TORAN: We will be
ready as well.
