Original subtitles

Here, my child.

You must take this stone

to the paladin at Sung Hill.

I'm too old to make the journey.

Run.

Run!

Teela, Teela!

Where is the stone?

You will never find it.

Caeryn!

Run, Teela.

The goddess will not let me die.

Find help.

We shouldn't be doing this.

Nonsense.

Sorry.

Gentle...

Or we'll go poof.

- Stop shaking. - I can't.

Pour.

Nothing's happening, we should stop.

Ah-ah!

On my word, pour the rest in.

Now, Egan.

Oh, that's it.

I don't know what went wrong.

Maybe I need more basilisk blood.

No!

What's that smell!

Take care of this!

I'll rip your hide from you!

Oh, oh.

Out of my way, gimp!

You clumsy bitch!

You're not worth the gruel it costs to feed you!

Leave that!

Let the gimp finish it.

Here, take this into town.

Get coin from the wizard.

And I want you back before first watch.

I don't want any trouble with the guards.

I'll go.

No, your leg.

You won't get back before dark.

They'll catch you and they'll brand you as a runaway.

I mastered the vision spell you gave me.

Although I think it could have

used some more basilisk blood.

And what did the basilisk blood project?

An eagle.

That's fascinating, I was certain

basilisk blood would result in a fireball.

I think I'm ready for some more spells.

Really, what kind of spells?

Healing.

I'm not a holy man.

You need a healer.

Magic is not an art of faith, but of understanding.

However, I do have something for you.

Bring me that pile of parchment.

There, a displacement spell.

It's very useful.

But don't use it on living objects.

Why not?

Because it will most likely cease to be living.

What are you doing!

I'm leaving and these things are not safe to be left here.

Nothing is safe here, anymore.

You're leaving?

There's too many eyes, too much lust for power.

I've stayed too long.

Take me with you.

You have a strong mind, Marek.

And a gift for learning.

You could teach me.

You could buy me and you could teach me.

There's an inn.

It's just outside of town.

You ask for Hammerhead.

You'll find the experience that you lack there.

And someone will be in need of a conjurer.

I can't.

I'd be a lone runaway,

hunted down and hanged.

You are a fighter, Marek.

It would be a shame to see that flame go out.

- But I can't-- - No.

It's getting dark and you must go.

And so must I.

Here, it's for the Hog's Root.

Please don't go.

You're my only friend.

The only one who can help me.

Good friends aren't so hard to find.

Our paths will cross again.

Now, haste.

It's after first watch.

And the guards will be looking for slaves breaking curfew.

What is it?

Adventurers, they have dragon eggs!

First watch!

Watch where you're going, gimp!

Oh!

What do we think of this, huh?

A slave girl, huh?

But you're not so young.

I could sell you as a 15 year old.

Or 16 years old in the right light.

Let me go!

But it's your twisted foot.

It's not my type.

But some men...

Some men pay extra for a girl like you.

Ah!

Take her to the den.

Take her!

No, no don't!

Don't!

And find out who owns her rights,

in case somebody wants to claim her.

Hold.

My slave, she ran away.

But I caught her.

No, he's lying!

No slaves out past first watch.

She'll have to come with me.

Like I said.

My slave girl ran away and I found her.

There's no harm done here.

That's for your troubles.

What's her name?

Kill him.

Oh, you bitch!

I will find you!

You just don't know who I am, do you?

I have a general idea.

If you cross me, you will pay.

You thrust this in with some force, my lady.

The effect was nearly disastrous.

Papers!

What are you carrying?

Nay but straw.

Move along, move along.

Get off me!

A thousand pardons, my lady.

I can't help myself.

A beautiful girl...

An intimate moment in the straw...

But alas, work calls.

Magistrate isn't going to cuckold himself, now is he?

Pleasant travels.

The coins...

Halt!

You there, stop!

Oh no, no!

Who's the man here?

Does this belong to you?

Yes.

I trust this can be forgotten.

You led a Vitalion guard to this house?

Where's my coin!

I'm sorry, I was robbed!

Are you trying to make a fool of me, girl?

You manage that yourself.

You're finished here!

Yes, I wanted you clean.

So I could keep your price up!

Now, I'll just take what's mine

and sell whatever's left of you

to the whorehouse!

What was that?

I don't even--

You used no powders and you said no words.

It was like no magic I've ever seen before.

Where is she!

Conjurer!

I have to go.

I'm going to Hammerhead's inn.

Come with me.

I can't do it alone, Egan.

Wait.

I made it.

It'll help you run.

I don't have your courage.

I would never make it.

Come on, go quick.

Goodbye, Egan.

Make sure she stays out.

I won't be saying it again.

No fykin' blades in the establishment!

Feed that mess to the pigs.

Hammerhead...

A round of drinks for the Blood clan.

On the house!

Hammerhead?

Hammerhead?

Move it along now.

Hammerhead!

I'm going to assume that you're new here.

And that this is a gift.

So that Orc over there doesn't have to polish

the blood off the blade of my axe again.

I'm looking for work.

Then talk to Narnie, over there.

No, adventuring work.

I want a chance at a bounty.

I do magic.

Oh, why didn't you say so.

A magician?

Well, I had no idea.

And all this time,

I've been playing court to a real fykin' magician.

Now get out before my temper turns!

In the name of the goddess Ana-Sett,

I demand audience with Oren Tuck.

Fykin' women tonight...

You are Oren Tuck.

Hammerhead's what they be callin' me now.

I am Teela, of the order of Ana-Sett.

Sent to plead your help.

Orcs raided my temple, two nights past.

And my people were slain

or taken by foul beasts.

I seek heroes to win their freedom.

Have you any gold?

I have some.

200 silver...

That's not gold.

Please.

You and your kind were friends to the order in times of old.

Times of old are olden times now.

And those heroes lie shriveled in the dirt.

I've no use for causes.

And neither does any man here today.

They have my sister!

Does any lad here, want to help save this lass's sister,

who was kidnapped by a band of marauding Orcs?

The pay is 200 silver pieces.

There's the door.

I suggest you use it.

If I just fykin' saw who I think I fykin' saw,

she'd better be here to sell herself as a whore!

I will take that bounty.

I'm forming a team.

Any of you are welcome to join my team.

I bring the skill of magic.

Careful, she has magic!

Wait!

You need help.

In there, I heard you.

You need help.

I require seasoned adventurers, heroes even.

Not young girls.

I have a team.

You have a limp.

No one else will help you.

Hammerhead said it.

The mission is too dangerous

and you have too little to pay.

And you?

You do not fear it?

No.

Should I?

Yes.

200 silver pieces.

Full sum upon completion.

It will be dangerous.

But with care, we may anticipate survival.

You won't regret it.

I very much doubt that.

Give me until fourth watch.

We'll meet at the stone circle at dawn.

I know you.

You're that slave girl that got me thrown into this cage.

Marek.

That pimp has some influential friends in my regiment.

I'm here to free you.

All I need is for you to swear an oath to me.

Why not.

I need a swordsman, for a bounty.

Join me and we'll win it together.

You're joking.

You're not joking.

Long ago, I swore an oath to the Vitalion empire.

That oath took me across the world and into this cage.

I'm done with oaths.

I saw you in the alley.

You're a brave man.

I wouldn't go that far.

No more masters or magistrates.

We'll create our own destinies.

And what would those

destinies hold for us, little marmet?

A life of dignity.

Well, friend...

For a life of dignity.

Helanor Raspar.

- Helanor... - Oh, god.

Raspar...

Helanor Raspar...

Oh, here come the guards.

Maybe one of them has a key.

Rathos' balls!

Name's Thane.

We need a thief.

It's Thor's day.

I believe there's one coupling with my commander's wife.

Well, there's our thief.

Psst!

Boy!

Boy!

Boy!

Go around the corner.

And tell the guards you saw a man climb into that window.

What's on your leg?

Go!

What is that on your leg?

My husband's back.

Take these, go, go.

No, no, no, not that way!

What is that thing on your foot?

Where's my money?

I have no idea what you're talking about.

In the hay wagon.

I meet a lot of women in the hay.

No offense but I can't say I remember you sweetheart.

Ow!

Oh, wait it's coming to me.

What manner of insult is it you bring to me,

to this house, to my bed!

Get away, you whore!

Guards!

Can we maybe discuss this somewhere else?

Take your time.

Alright, alright.

Given my very limited knowledge on thieves,

I would assume your money is gone.

Gambled away or spent on very, very expensive women.

You bastard!

Most probably.

Sorry sweetheart, I'm a harder catch than that.

We're here to make you an offer.

There'll be no more of this!

Guards, guards!

I need you for one mission.

No chance, my lady.

Then we'll let the magistrate have you,

and she keeps your clothes.

What's the pay?

- 50 silver. - A hundred.

A hundred.

Is now really the time to haggle?

Ow, 75!

What?

I'll have him destroyed!

I'm in!

We're here.

Well, well.

Allow me.

Dagen, and you are?

Teela, from the order of Ana-Sett.

A holy woman?

A little girl, a Vitalion, and a miscreant...

I pray the goddess may bless our worthy cause.

Charming.

There is an Orc encampment, 10 leagues east.

My sister is held there.

We'll rescue her under cover of night.

You and I, under the covers at night?

I like it.

Except without the dress.

All done up in white,

you stick out like a lily in a pile of pig shite.

Done up?

Should we head out?

My white robes symbolize purity

and show my dedication to the goddess Ana-Sett.

And I will not be spoken to like one of your common whores.

Speak to ladies like whores and whores like ladies.

Surprising what you get from both.

I have 10 leagues yet before I test this blade.

Don't push me off.

The goddess leads us.

The goddess leads us.

10 Leagues.

Maybe we should take a look around down there.

See if they missed anything valuable.

They were my friends and teachers.

Should we go down there to pick up the trail?

Let's keep moving.

What is the smell?

We're to stay downwind.

Keep low and quiet.

That's a lot of Orcs.

Right, time to go home.

If we fight, we die.

I have a plan.

I'll create a distraction, on that hill.

Draw them out that way, get them to chase us.

And Dagen will run in--

Whoa, hey, no.

Like hell I will.

You out of your nut?

Those aren't imaginary Orcs that your grandmother

told you about to lull you to sleep, sweetheart.

Those are real, blood-thirsty, muscle-bound animals.

And we only have one muscle-bound animal.

I can conjure a distraction.

There's a lot of Orcs down there.

Fine.

Well then, thief.

You're going to slip into the water quietly,

hop into those cages and find out which one

has Teela's sister in it.

Then come ashore when you're in the clear.

What about freeing the other captives?

Yeah, why not?

And while I'm at it,

I'll swipe some teeth from the biggest gooch's mouth.

Forget it.

If anything happens, we'll attack...

Causing a distraction.

It's a good plan.

Naturally.

And what about that guard down there by the cages?

Maybe I'll make friends with him?

All the while, Thane can spend the night up here

on the rocks, pleasuring you lovely ladies,

while Teela's sex-deprived goddess watches on with envy.

Shove your dagger straight up, through his bowels.

He won't scream and death is instant.

The sisters of my order study principles of combat.

Dagen, if your thieving skills aren't up to it--

My thieving skills?

No, no, no, it's fine, I'll do it.

fyke, always the thief gets the sodden end of the stick.

And Teela, cut that out alright?

It's bad luck.

Right, excuse me.

What's she look like, this sister of yours?

Brown hair.

Is she beautiful?

Mmm.

Her chances are improving.

What's going on down there?

Teela, is that your sister?

No, a priest.

That's him!

He led the raid on my temple.

Where is the stone?

I don't know.

What is he doing to him?

Necromancy.

It's an old, dark magic,

which draws on the life-force of others.

I'd only ever heard tales of it until now.

I can't see Dagen.

Any sign of him?

Come on, thief.

Earn your pay.

Which one of you is Teela's sister, Caeryn?

Shh, they kill those of us who speak.

I'm here to free you.

The ogre came, he took--

Silence!

Or my blade shall taste of your blood again!

Let's see what we've got here.

Put it in...

Nice and easy...

A bit deeper...

And there she is.

Right, let's have a look at you.

Are you Caeryn?

Caeryn isn't here.

What do you mean?

I misunderstood.

The goddess wants all of her worshipers released.

They'll see we've escaped and come after us.

Shh.

Oh, no...

Fyk, don't do it.

Alright, alright we've got him.

Marek, fire whenever you're ready!

Just join in!

Do we have a plan?

We fight.

I thought you said we'd die.

We'll see now, won't we.

That is a lot of Orcs.

Are you alright?

Of course I'm alright!

Help Teela!

Hey!

Had to fykin' start that combat-training shite.

Leave us your women and you can live.

How very Orcish of you.

Leave me, I'm not afraid to die.

Then just do it already.

You had to fykin' stab him...

Must've lost them.

Right.

Marek!

We could really use some magic right now!

Leave me, I'm slowing you down.

No, our oath goes both ways.

Move it faster, or drop him.

Wait, wait, I know this place.

Up there.

We raided a camp here once.

There's a cave, it's hard to get to.

I'm out of arrows!

Hard to get to?

I'm not going to let you die.

The bolt, draw the bolt!

Quiet.

Keep him quiet.

Shh, quiet.

I'm bleeding too fast.

Move aside.

Embrace the pain and welcome death, should she beckon you.

No, no!

I couldn't get it all.

It'll take time to fully heal you.

But you will live.

You're so beautiful.

Sleep now.

I will watch over you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I'm going to see what else is in here.

It's a faltic.

It needs to be placed on a shrine.

It's a gift to the gods,

to grant a wish for love.

How do you know that?

Personal experience, I'm afraid.

It's far too pretty a thing for this place.

I don't even know where we are.

What is this, a house?

Oh, no.

No, it's a runner's cache.

Deiren smugglers used to keep them,

up and down the trade routes.

But this looks long forgotten.

What wish will you ask the gods for?

Being a slave and all...

No, I just saw the mark on your neck.

It explains a lot.

I'm going to make a fire.

Well Teela, I presume the mission's over.

Unless of course, you have some idea

as to where your sister might actually be.

My sister might have been taken by the ogre.

The ogre?

Ah yes, the ogre.

And not just any ogre.

But the one that attacked your temple with the Orcs.

A little, or should I say a huge detail,

that Teela left out.

That's probably why she didn't want us to go down there.

We'd have noticed all the evidence.

No!

I mean, I didn't know the goddess led us to--

The goddess be damned!

I did my part, whether your sister was there or not.

Now I want my silver and then I'll be going.

I do not have your silver, not yet.

Oh...

Well that's perfect, isn't it?

The goddess has promised to provide you with payment.

Okay, I'm done with you lot.

I know in my heart, that my sister is alive.

I still have to find her!

Yeah well, good luck with that, priestess.

Dagen, wait!

Shh, shh, shh.

What are you doing?

I am leaving.

This mission is suicide.

It's suicide alone.

I'll take my chances.

You could come with me.

If you like.

I want to see this through.

Take care of Thane.

Wait.

Teela?

No.

I'm sorry.

Nothing has changed.

My promise is good.

What about it?

We leave at dawn.

Teela...

You should rest.

I've no need.

Nor I.

Sleep doesn't come so easily now.

After all this, I'll sleep like a babe.

This is very clever.

Teela, you're a healer.

Are you able to heal anyone?

Those with pure intent,

who have faith to heal and be healed, yes.

Am I pure enough?

Can your goddess, can she heal me?

My leg...

Please.

I'm sorry Marek.

It is not the will of the goddess.

What?

What, why?

Your leg is a deliberate mark from the gods.

A reminder of the darkness inside you.

I'm good, I know I am.

There's no darkness inside of me.

We all harbor darkness.

And all light.

Then why am I different?

Why can't I be healed?

How recent do you think this ogre trail is?

Less than a day, I'd wager.

Are Vitalion soldiers trained in tracking?

Aye, but men not ogres.

Why become a soldier?

Chance to see the world...

And swing a sword at it.

And you?

Why did I choose the order of Ana-Sett?

It was my sister who was first called,

greatly upsetting our father.

I promised I would never follow in her footsteps.

Nor did I desire to.

Then I found out he planned to trade me

to a nobleman for a tract of land.

I refused and ran to Caeryn and the order.

The goddess has been my life since.

Not many girls would pass up

a chance to marry a nobleman.

I refuse to be traded like property.

We all sell ourselves for something in the end.

That's rather bleak.

Life is bleak.

The imprint is deeper here.

And lengthens.

The ogre was running.

Running?

For what?

From what?

I have little experience with these creatures.

Following blindly is reckless.

What do you suggest?

I say we get up high.

Spy out the land.

Learn what might be waiting for us.

We don't have time.

If your sister is still alive,

there's no telling how much longer she has.

We have the trail, let's keep going.

Orcs...

He chose his own path.

He may have been taken captive.

He's likely still alive.

Maybe.

The goddess has her purposes.

Dagen's fate is no longer our concern.

I've heard enough of your damn goddess!

What good is she to me?

To you, to anyone?

Maybe Dagen had it right.

Your temple is burned.

Your sister is probably dead.

And chances are, we're probably going to die here too.

Maybe I'm not good enough,

for you and your goddess to care about.

But I know this.

I'm not like your goddess.

I wouldn't leave a friend to die alone in the wilderness.

The same way Dagen left us?

What was that?

We need to move.

Now!

We need to find a clearing!

We'll have a better chance of fighting it if we can see it!

Don't look in his eyes!

I may have looked directly into his eyes!

Do we keep running or make a stand?

Keep running!

I thought we needed to find a clearing.

I'm trying!

Stop playing around.

Marek run!

What was that!

I don't want to know!

There's a clearing ahead.

We should have scouted.

Get to the trees!

Leave me, I can make it.

Put me down, put me down!

Shut up, hold on!

Leave me.

Faster, run faster!

Over here, you brute!

Pretty...

Marek, forget about us!

You must find the stone!

The goddess will aid you!

Why won't you heal me?

Ana-Sett, here my prayer.

I have failed, goddess.

My friends are going to die.

I'm alone, I'm alone.

Heal me.

Heal me so I can save my friends.

Ana-Sett, if you hear me, answer.

If you hear me, answer.

Answer me.

Answer me.

Answer me!

Answer me.

You're wrong.

You're wrong about me.

To hell with the gods.

What about a last meal or something?

Some meat?

Ale would be nice.

Thanks very much.

Marek, thank fyke.

Quiet, I'm concentrating.

Thank you very much.

Don't mind me.

You just keep focusing.

You have impeccable timing, Marek.

The ugly one had a look in his eye I didn't like.

Yep, yep okay.

This is yours.

Oh!

Oh, my god.

And I thought you'd deserted me.

Where are the others?

You left them.

Smart.

No, we're going to rescue them.

The ogre?

Oh fyke, Marek why?

Because they're our friends.

And I don't have many friends.

Neither do you.

I spotted the ogre trail not far from here.

It's just over that ridge.

Alright.

Wait, wait, wait.

Yes, alright...

Is this the ogre's cave?

I'd bet my magic wand we're at his doorstep.

You know you're asking the impossible, right?

Surely not impossible for you.

I just want to make sure you'll appreciate my success.

What was that for?

I'm probably falling in love.

Who's out there?

Is there someone there?

Please!

Are you here to help me?

Who's there?

I'm trapped.

I can't get out.

Is there anyone there?

I hear you.

Is that someone out there?

Who's there, who's there?

I'm in here, I'm in here.

Psst, anybody home?

Who are you?

Just get me out of here.

Shh, calm down boy.

Is there anyone else in there with you?

An enticing priestess, maybe?

No, I'm all alone.

Alright, just sit tight.

Please, you have to save me!

Please!

Please, get me out of here!

Don't leave me!

Where did you go?

Come back, come back!

Knock, knock.

Hello, beautiful.

I'm Dagen.

Your insane sister sent me here to rescue you.

I'm not important.

Take this.

Get me out of here!

Take the stone.

Bring it to the paladins and Sung Hill.

They can protect it.

Listen, sweetheart.

We have gone through a lot of trouble,

- to get you out of here. - Save me!

Come back, please!

Please, get me out of here!

Shut it!

You fool!

Escape with the stone.

Nothing else matters.

You remind me a lot of your sister.

It's coming, it's coming!

Get out of here, it's coming!

Mother, no!

Dagen, move.

Did you two want to quit lying around

and give me a hand?

Dagen?

By the gods.

Never thought I'd be happy to see you again.

Yeah well, I was missing Teela's sunny demeanor.

Where's Marek?

She's here.

We're going to get you out of here.

Push!

Okay, okay.

Maybe we could get the ogre to--

He doesn't take them out to play with them.

He takes them out to eat them.

I have an idea.

Teela, remember that spell in the hideout?

The one you were practicing on the kettle?

Yes.

Ana-Sett, be merciful.

Hang on to each other.

Tightly.

Ready?

Hold on, Teela.

I've got you.

Marek...

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

It was the only way, I didn't mean to--

Well, let's never do it again.

Did you find Caeryn?

Caeryn?

Here, together we might be able to move it.

Yep, yep right.

Push.

She's out, she's out.

I need something sharp!

This way!

Come on, come on.

I feel fresh air moving!

This must be another way out.

I see light, this way.

Go, go, go!

Think you can make it?

Probably.

But how am I going to get the rest of you out?

Help him.

Please, please...

What is that?

I've got a bag feeling about this.

You want to eat us?

You'll have to crawl in after us.

We're not coming out.

I'm not so sure about that!

Here come the spiders.

I'm out of arrows!

Quickly, before he recovers.

There's the entrance.

We can make it if we run.

Well done, my lady.

Is everyone alright?

You did it.

We did it.

Are you kidding?

There's no treasure.

I have always heard

that ogres amass hoards and hoards of treasure.

That belongs to the temple.

We must hurry.

This country is unsafe at night.

At night?

I can hardly imagine anything worse

than this country during the day.

How much for an ogre's ear?

An ogre's ear, you say?

I'd say that's worth a free drink.

And a smidgen of respect.

Done!

I won't stop until I reach the monastery.

The paladin will send the team their silver.

I'm afraid for you.

Why must you travel alone?

My path is sure.

I have no fear.

And the goddess says you are to stay here,

for the time being.

I must take the stone to the paladin.

Farewell, my sister.

Now go.

Be with your friends.

I said take that staff and give it to the captain.

He knows right where to put it.

Maybe I'll become a farmer.

And find a soft woman to settle down with.

To adventure.

To a life of dignity.

To riches and gold.
