Holly...

Holly?

What time is it now?

Just ten minutes later
than when you asked before.

And do you think
he'll get here in time?

He'll be here any minute now.
Take it easy, John.

You really have to tell him tonight?
-Yes. Tonight.

I feel that it may be my last.
-No, no, no.

You know you're going to get better.
-Holly...

What's become of your passion
for cold, scientific facts?

There he is now. Hurry.

I believe my uncle's expecting me.
I'm Leo Vincey.

Yes, I can see that.
How are you, Vincey?

Come on in.

My name is Holly, Horace Holly.
-Glad to know you.

Confound your English fog.
Our ship was a whole day late.

Well, thank heavens you're,
you're here in time.

Time? What's all the rush?

Your cable said, catch first boat,
Greatest adventure in the world.

What's all the mystery?
-You'll hear all about that from your uncle.

There's one thing
my cable didn't say-

John Vincey is dying.

Good lord. What of?

Radium poisoning.

I haven't seen the old
man since I was a kid.

He never quite got over our side
of the family going American.

Why he send for me?

There's no time to explain
that now, every minute counts.

Come along in.

I'm sorry sir, I couldn't
get here any sooner.

Never mind that, my boy.

There's no time for
explanations now. Come closer.

Holly...

Did you ever see such striking resemblance?
-Extraordinary.

I already noticed it.
-Look at that portrait.

Holly, turn on that light.

That resembles me a lot.

Or should I say that I resembles him.

That is your ancestor of
a dozen generations ago.

Really?
-John Vincey in the 15th century.

Well...

I must say we Vinceys have a
way of looking like each other.

Have no time for
explanations now, my boy.

I'm a man of science.

I'm not superstitious.

If I were, I might imagine that your
resemblance to a man dead nearly 500 years

Is fate way of showing me that you
will find again what he discovered.

What is that, sir?
-The means of overcoming man's enemy.

Man's enemy?
-My enemy, your enemy,

The enemy of all living things.
-Careful, John.

That is what I mean, Leo, that is
the swinging march of men enemy.

Time, bringing death,
invisible, relentless death.

I guess nobody can stop that.
-Who knows?

A lot of men have believed they could.

Ponce de Leon, who searched
for the Fountain of Youth.

Or those 15th-century alchemists...

Who tried to discover
the elixir of life.

But what connection
has all this with me?

Or John Vincey over
there on the wall?

That's what your uncle is
going to tell you.

Holly, get me the box.

Listen to me carefully, Leo.

I haven't time left to
tell you more than once.

Uncle John, I don't think you should
exert yourself... -Please, please.

What I am going to tell you is a secret
handed down in our family from father to son.

The first John Vincey there did not
go on his last great adventure alone.

His wife left their son
in England to go with him.

For five years, they
vanished from the world.

Then, one night in a town
in northern Poland,

A woman ill, starving, dying...

collapsed at the door
of an English merchant.

He took her in and heard her ravings
of hardship and fantastic terror.

And that woman was
John Vincey's widow.

Before she died, she
became more coherent.

Begged for someone to write a letter
to her family in England.

Here is the letter, dictated by that
dying woman almost five centuries ago.

Yes, it is something of a puzzle.

Didn't she tell what
happened to John Vincey?

Yeah.

"So he was killed because he
refused to abandon me."

Does it give any idea where they went to?
-Not much, mentions the land of Muscovy.

Russia, eh?
-Or Siberia or Kamchatka,

All known as Muscovy
in the 15th century.

The place where he was killed
is far, far north.

She escaped with their english servant.

They fell in with some natives who
guided them back across a glacier.

Over what she calls
the Schugle barrier.

And there, death struck again.
Holly, read it.

"Then a great beast sprang on
our guides and killed them all.

"My servant Giles killed the beast."

"But died of his grievous wounds".

"So I was left alone."

But what about the discovery
you spoke of?

What they find?
-Read on.

"In this strange land, we saw the flame."

"And he who stands there-in comes forth
unharmed to triumph over death."

But John Vincey died there. Why if
he found this, uh, this flame?

Because he was murdered.
-But you are scientists.

Do you really take all this seriously?
-Seriously?

Come, my boy.

I'll show you how seriously.

Come into the laboratory where...

Holly and I have done our lifework.

In the beginning,
I was as skeptical as you.

Then Holly and I...

Years ago...

In this very room,

Began our efforts to...

reproduce John Vincey's
life-prolonging flame.

We failed.

But our researches in radioactivity...

Carried us far enough to make us believe
that such an element really exists.

An element to preserve life?
-Yes.

Seventeen years in this room.

There's one other thing
we ought to show him, John.

Here.

Can you make out the inscription?

It means, here burns the flame of life."

That is the sole possession
Vincey's wife had left.

She sent it to the son she never saw again.

It's all so mysterious,
it doesn't make sense.

This thing's gold,
not an unknown element.

To be sure, it's gold.

It's only the symbol of the
flame of life John Vincey found.

Don't you understand?
-I'm afraid I don't.

Flame destroys life. A thousand volts
of electricity will destroy life.

But increase the frequency and you may safely
take a million volts through your body.

And the radiation
from this unknown element,

This flame of life...

May be a million degrees hotter
than any fire we know,

Or it may be as cold as ice.

That's too much. A cold flame?

Did you ever hear of a man being
burned by x-rays or radium?

Did he feel himself being burned?

No. No more than I did myself.

This flame of life, Vincey,
is pure radiation,

The most intense and flame-like
radiation In the whole universe.

Radiation from what?
-From the unknown element.

Do you really believe
such a thing exists?

We no longer believe,
we know it exists.

Our experiments prove that.
-That's right.

They also prove something else.

This element cannot be
artificially produced.

Only nature, only god can produce it.
-But where?

In a glacial region of volcanic character.
-That's largely guesswork, isn't it?

No, not if the family legend is true,

And I believe that it is.

I believe that John Vincey
found that flame.

And that it still burns somewhere...

remote and mysterious,
offering eternal life.

That's why I've sent for you.
You're a Vincey,

The last of us.

Holly can't do it alone,
but he'll go with you.

John Vincey was an explorer.
It's in your blood, too,

And the love of adventure.

Don't look upon this
as a deathbed wish.

If you should try,
If you succeed...

I shan't be here.

But I hope that
somehow I shall know.

And somehow share
in your triumph when you say...

"here burns the flame of life."

Uncle John? John? John.

Let's hope this chap has some tea.
-I'll take mine with a big reindeer steak.

Fine old northern hospitality, nothing
in the world like it, they tell me.

Northern hospitality, eh?

Well, I'm blown.

I thought you were some of those
infernal wandering chantos.

Can't take any chances with them.
-Don't we know it.

Stayed with a tribe of them last week.

Planning to stay here
the night, I take it.

We hope so.
-Come 20 miles today.

Come in. Come in.

Sit down, both of you. There's a big stew
on the stove just about ready,

Plenty to go around.
-Yeah, I'm glad of that.

Hey. How about supper?
Do we eat or don't we?

Oh, that's my daughter Tanya.
Sit down.

Thanks.

Thank you very much.

Now, then, gents,

Do I understand you want
to do business with me?

We heard you had the post
furthest up country.

We thought you might be able to
help us get some natives to go on.

Where do you want to go?

Did you ever hear of the Schugle barrier?
-Oh, yes. I've heard natives talk of it.

Leo, at last, we're on our way.

On your way where?
-Over the Schugle.

Oh, you're crazy.
-Why?

You'll never get a native
to guide you there.

We'll pay him well.
-That ain't the point.

They're afraid to go, I tell you.
-Why?

Because no one who got over
ever came back, so far as I know.

Why didn't they come back?
What lies beyond the Schugle?

More of the same, I suppose. Of course,
the natives have tales about it.

Well, what did they say?

I never paid much attention
to their foolishness.

I can tell you.
-You can? What is it?

The natives say that beyond the Schugle,
there are terrible dangers.

They say...
-Bah.

Yes, go on.
-Why, it's just a sort of legend.

What is the legend?

A long time ago they believe, a woman came out
of the country that lies far beyond the Schugle.

What sort of woman?
-A white woman.

She told them that she had
escaped from a strange place.

Strange?

And if a man finds the way
there, he will never die.

The catch in that is he
dies before he gets there.

Hold your trap, Tanya,
you gab too much.

Wait.

Is there anything in the story
about fire, a flame?

Anything you can connect with this?

No, I don't think so.
-What's that?

Gold, ain't it?
-Yes.

It is gold.

I see. Well, now you
begin to make sense.

So that's what lies beyond the Schugle.
-No, you don't understand.

Gold isn't what we're interested in.

Ah? Suppose I could get
a few natives to go on.

How much could you pay them?
-Anything they asked.

Well, that's liberal enough.
Money no object, eh?

Lads...

No one can say old Dugmore
ever let a white man down.

I'll get natives to go.

I'll run the outfit myself,
and you needn't pay me a penny.

How's that for an offer?
-What?

What about those dangers you talked about?
-I'll be frank with you gents.

I figure it's worth some risk to be
a partner in what you're after.

My dear sir, that's absurd, you can't
be a part in what we're looking for.

I said a partner.

You try to keep me out of this...

and I'll fix it so that no native in these

parts will come within
a thousand miles of you.

Take it or leave it.

Tanya, here.

I tell you again, Dugmore,
you're crazy.

You can't take a girl up there.
-Stop rowing about it. I'm sick of hearing it.

We don't know what we're getting into.

What's your idea, then?

To leave her here alone...

with no one around for 400 miles
except a lot of wandering chantos.

Who like to get even with me?

Anyhow, we want somebody to cook.

My dear, has anybody taken the trouble
to ask you what you want to do?

I want to go.
-There, you see?

She wouldn't leave her poor old Pa.

Well, if there were anyplace to leave
her, I wouldn't let her come along.

Think you'll be all right?
-I'm all right.

Come along, let's go.
-Let's go.

Hey, Dugmore.

Look.

That may lead to a way over the
Schugle barrier. What do you think?

Let's hope so.

We've followed that cliff for a week
without finding a way through it.

Anyhow, it'll be a shelter from the wind,
and the dogs can't go on without a rest.

Hurry up with that food, Tanya.

It'll be ready as soon
as I get it thawed out.

I wouldn't mind being
thawed out myself.

Leo...

this is no place to camp.

But Dugmore says the dogs need a rest.
-I don't like it.

Sitting down here under this
wall of ice it's dangerous.

What's the matter with you now?
What's dangerous?

There you are.

Well, what of it? You've heard
that several times lately.

In this narrow place, any noise might start
vibrations which might cuase an avalanche.

Merely shouting might do it.
-Ah, pipe down.

Who's lived in the north
for 20 years, me or you?

Lecture yourself out of that, professor.

You, hurry up with that grub.

I still don't like it.

Smells good.
-Tastes good, too, snow rabbits.

Are the ones I shot?

Oh, I'll fix that.
-You don't have to help me.

But I want to.
-You think having me along is a nuisance.

Oh, we can't get along without you.

I wish you really meant that.
-I do, honest.

Because I can cook?

Well, not only that, but
there's another reason...

Your father.

If it weren't for you, I can't get
along with him for a minute.

But with you here, I find
him at least bearable.

I know.

That isn't very nice of me, is it?
-I can't blame you, but...

I understand. He's your father.

You see, I was brought up by the
Russian sisters at Yuroshi.

The convent broke up about a year ago, and
he came and took me to the trading post.

He said he was my father.
-Oh, I begin to understand.

Well, it's all right, really.
-But it isn't all right.

When we get back from this trip, I'll teach
him how a girl like you ought to be treated.

If I had a daughter like you, don't you think
I'd love her and show her that I do?

Would you?
-Why, of course I would.

I don't see how he
can help loving you.

Why, you're, you're...
-Vincey...

Vincey, Holly, Holly.
-What's up?

The natives have just
come down from the glacier,

Shrieking something about a white man.

Let's go up and see
what it's about.

They'll show us the way.

Come on.

By the lord Harry.

What a beast.
-Holly, what is it?

Unless I'm barmy, it's,
it's a saber-tooth tiger.

Think of it, man.

That's a new one.
-Saber-tooth tiger.

They've been extinct for
thousands of years, haven't they?

In all known parts
of the world, yes, but here...

They must've been preserved
in that ice for 4 or 500 years.

They must've camped in this glacier.

Look how that man's dressed.

Holly, the servant-

The faithful servant who
was with John Vincey's wife.

What the parchment say, remember?
-By Jove, Leo, you're right.

He killed the great beast, but
died of the wounds it gave him.

And she escaped alone, remember?
-Holly?

We found our way, the way to the flame.

Look.

That stiff got a chain
around his neck,

And there is a ripped canvas bag.

It's gold.

This ice ain't so thick, and with this ax?
-Don't be a fool.

You heard what Holly said about any
vibration causing an avalanche.

Oh, the professor says a lot of things.

Come on, let's get out of here.

Dugmore, Dugmore.

Dugmore, sop it, you fool.

There's no hope for the others.

You know that?

I know.

No sledges, no food,
and no way back.

And no way forward.

Holly, look.

This was covered by the glacier.
-It may lead through the barrier.

Tanya?
-Is all right.

At least this is a
shelter from the wind.

Interesting formation.
Pity there isn't more light.

Oh, I'm tired.

Poor kid, you've had
a tough time of it.

Leo, Leo, Tanya. Come quick.

Look.

There's our way.
-Our way? Where?

What are you talking about?
-Don't you understand? The fumaroles,

Volcanic formation. One hour ago,
ice, glacial ice-

And now, volcanic heat.
-I get it, what uncle John talked about.

We could never get through.
-Of course we can.

Listen Tanya, when I wanted to leave you at
the trading post, what did you say?

Why, I said I wanted to go.
-All right, come on.

Sulfur, of course.

Phosphorus, too.
That accounts for the glow.

Well, that's the last of them.

Can't we rest a bit?

Look, there's more light.
-Yes, and another opening.

Just a minute, Leo, give them a
chance to show if they're friendly.

Try your lingo, Tanya.

We, we greet you, my friend.

Thank you, nago-da.

Say it to him, Leo.
-What does it mean?

Good day or how are you? Or
greetings or something of that kind.

Don't, don't judge them by their looks,
They're most probably a very friendly people.

Show your confidence in them.

You know what it means, Tanya?
-No.

Sure, eh? Very kind.

Say, they seem awfully please
to see us, don't they?

Thank you, thank you.

You see? I was right.

They're just kind,
hospitable, simple people.

I'm not sure they're so simple.

Leo, you realize what we're eating?
-Some sort of melon.

It's a pre-melon,
something like papaya.

What of it?
-Tropical fruit here in the arctic?

It means there's some sort of fertile
country, somewhere beyond these caves.

May be what we're looking.

This don't look so good to me.
-Nonsense.

I suspect is a ceremony of welcome.

Leo?
-Steady, Tanya, steady.

What's up now?

I don't like this.
-Oh, nonsense, it's, it's most interesting.

Come with me.

You all right, Leo?

I...

I, I thought...

Steady, Leo.
-Leo, you are hurt.

Holly, watch him. Wait, please.

Old gentleman...

my friend, him very sick...

no can walk.

You get out, out.

Let him, ride.

Oh, Holly, I'm trying to tell him
that Leo can't walk any further.

You old idiot, can't you
see for yourself he's hurt?

Holly, he's dying.
-No, no, Tanya.

Bad concussion, I'm afraid.

Do not be afraid.

He will not die.

But, but...

how can you know english?

I have a wise teacher
who knows all tongues.

But wait, wait.
Who, who was your teacher?

What is this place?
Where are we going?

What-what's gonna hap...?

You will learn your fate
from Hash-A-Mo-Tep.

Tanya, Tanya.
-It's all right, Leo.

I say, this is incredible.
What is this place?

Country of Kor.
-Kor?

Tanya, think of it.

You're seeing something that
nobody ever dreamed existed.

Aren't you interested?
-No.

That mountain...

There are stairs and a great door.

What is it?

It's the palace of Hash-A-Mo-Tep,
hollowed in the heart of the mountain.

Speak in english then.
Strangers may understand.

Returning from the journey
on which you sent me,

I passed the place where dwelled
the peoples of the caves.

I weary of those people.

There, I found the strangers
fighting for their lives.

The cave people would
have killed them.

Against my order?

Known these many years that any stranger
must be brought to me unharmed?

Have not their fathers and their fathers
fathers taught them that my word is law?

They await your
judgment, oh, Queen.

They shall not go unpunished.
What is your name, stranger?

Holly, O Queen.
-Welcome, Holly,

Though you are not he for whom I wait.
-But I don't understand.

Why should you? What do
you know of immortal dreams,

Immortal memories?
-But who are you?

I'm yesterday and today and tomorrow. I'm
sorrow and longing and hope unfulfilled.

I am Hash-A-Mo-Tep, she.
She who must be obeyed.

I am, I.

But you speak my language. How is that?
-I learned it from a countryman of yours.

Long ago.
-What's said?

You mean there's been another Englishman
here, In your lifetime? Who?

How long ago?

See that the strangers
are well-treated, Billali.

I will decide later what they shall do.
-And the other one?

The other?
-A young man, wounded in the fight.

I thought...
-You thought? Bring him to me at once.

It's not enough that I should wait
for unending years in pain.

You forget my orders,
disobey my commands.

Who gives you leave to
think contrary to my will?

Nearer, bring him nearer.

John Vincey, John Vincey.

Oh, my love, my dearest love.

At last.

You're hurt.

Billali...

Billali, take him to my chamber.

Through the forbidden door?
-Yes.

And bear him gently.

Please let me go with him.

Who are you? You are his wife?

No. I'm nothing to him.
But he needs someone.

He will not be alone.

No. Leo.

Oh, please, please let me go.

Let me go with him, I tell you.
Let me go. Leo, Leo...

I, I just had to see how he is.

What gives you so much courage?

Can you help him?

He will wake from his sleep refreshed
and well. There's no need to fear.

Are you sure?
-Yes, look if you will.

Then leave.

How often have I watched
beside him lying so.

But now, this is warm.

He needs nothing you have to give.

Go now.

Go before he wakes.

And forget him. He is not for you.

Why do you hate me?
-Hate you?

Why, you're nothing, nothing.

Once, long ago, a woman like
you destroyed my happiness.

Same thing shall not happen again.

How's Leo?
-Leo?

You know, my friend. Vincey.

Vincey. Oh, yes.

Have no fear. She will heal him.

I see.

Look here...

You're the most important
man in the country, aren't you?

I have served she continuously
for more than half a century.

What? Half a century?
You're joking.

You think I'm too young?

Oddly enough, I wasn't
thinking about you.

What are you do?

It's an old english custom.
-What is it?

Smoking. Don't you smoke?

Smoke and fire.

Do you worship the flame?
-Of course, old boy.

Don't you?

It will soon be time for the yearly
offering in the hall of kings.

There you may see the sacred fires rekindled
if she permits you'll be present.

You think if I showed her this?

What's the matter?
What does it mean?

Are you tired of life?

Then question she concerning that.

But tell me...

Who is this who stands in fire?
-Ask no more questions, I tell you.

But is She's own secret.

Put it away.
-Very well.

I thought that you might know.
-How should I know?

She goes alone.
-Alone?

On such a long journey?
-Long journey? No.

There in the hall of king...

You're cunning.

I said too much already.
-Well, just tell me one more thing.

How long has she ruled over Kor?
-All her life.

But...

Tanya, what's happened?
-She wouldn't let me stay.

She is with Leo.
-You saw him?

He's still asleep. She says he'll
be well when he wakes.

Oh, but, Holly, Holly, I'm afraid. I...

I, I feel something evil about her.

She would not let you
stay to speak with him?

You mean that she is
planning to keep us apart?

What nonsense. Leo will have
something to say about that.

You think so?

But you may see him.

She has commanded that you
both be present at the trial.

You mean the trial of
the men who attacked us?

Punishment of the men
who injured him.

What does it mean?

She knows Leo.

She says he belongs to her.

She called him John Vincey.

But, Holly, how could
she know John Vincey?

How could she?

I want to believe it.

Suppose it's true?

Suppose it's true?

Did you dream I was
watching while you slept?

I dreamed of a man
dead for centuries.

And you called me by his name.
-Dreams are only memories.

In the endless flow of time.

Who are you?

Drink.

Had I known you were coming, you
would've been welcomed like a king.

Where are my friends?
-Take the food. Be strong again.

But Tanya, the girl who was...
-She is here in my palace.

I remember vaguely.
Someone brought us here...

And you said...
-What?

It's all foggy now.

Who are you?
-You do not remember?

How can I?
I've never seen you before.

I was so sure when you came
at last you would remember.

I was so sure could not forget me.

I have summoned slaves
to attend you.

Later, you will hear my judgment
on those who dared attack you.

But wait, tell me, how is it
you speak my language?

And still, you do not understand.

I say, Tanya, what, what's
the meaning of this?

Where'd you get that outfit?
-From the old man.

Billali?

He said I was to put it on
and look as well as I could.

I wonder why he cares how you look.

Good. Young man will be pleased.
-How is Leo?

That, will be soon
discover for yourself, come.

If he's well, will go
back to his own country?

Oh, yes.

Why, of course he will.

Then, I hope he'll soon be
well enough to travel.

Tanya, and Holly.
Glad to see you, how are you?

That's just what I was going to
ask you, but there is no need.

Listen, Leo, I think
I've got some big news for you.

Leo, are you sure
you're all right?

How do I look?

Want me to squeeze you
and try my strength?

Listen to this, I pumped
old Billali about the flame...

She summons you.
Sit near the throne.

Go ahead, oh, king.
-Ah, come on, the both of you.

You alone. You two, come with me.

Well, Leo, see you later.
I've much to tell you.

There are marvels to be seen today.

Stranger shares the throne.

Where I may scarce approach.

Come.

I've summoned you, Holly, that you may
observe how justice is meted out in Kor.

Let the prisoners stand forth.

You earth-born people...

You haunters of darkness,

How you try my patience?

Point out those who were reckless
enough to lay hands upon you.

I'll, I'll point out
those I'm sure of.

Those two men there.

And this one.

This man.
I believe he was the leader.

That's all.

Only four, out of all
those men attacked you?

That's all I'm sure of.

They will die.
-What?

They shall be put to death.

But...

I don't want that.
-Would you spare them?

Oh, yes, a christian.

I'd almost forgotten.

Remember in the market
place of Jerusalem,

They spoke of a man who
taught mercy and forgiveness.

A man who died so
others might live.

As though death could beget life.

Tell them to stand up, Billali.

No.

How could you be so calm and
send people to their deaths like that?

Silence.

The girl also is tired of life?
-I'm not afraid of you.

Tanya...
-There is an end of my indulgence.

Come away, Tanya.
-Yes, Holly, go with her.

I'm the one who spoke out of turn.

We don't want these fellows butchered
just because we had a fight with them.

Punish them if you like
but, but not that.

You think I'm cruel
for the sake of cruelty?

Then why do you torture them?
-How do you think I rule these people?

It's not by force. It's by terror.

My empire is of the imagination.
-Still, I beg you, stop this.

Thanks. That makes
me feel a lot better, all of us.

And don't hold anything against Tanya.
-What is that girl to you?

Nothing, I, I feel
responsible for her.

May I. Do you mind if I go now? I'd
like to tell her everything is all right.

Go, then.

Yes, Billali?

The prisoners...

are they to be turned
back to their caves?

No. Kill them.
-All?

All. Kill them.

Make an end.

Would I could kill
my fears so easily.

She's wicked, I tell you.

You don't be too hard on her, Tanya.
She's strange and wonderful.

Well, after all, she didn't
go through with it.

She would've killed
them, except for you.

Listen, Leo, I've got it.

Got what?

We're going to find out
everything we want to know.

Through you.

Good idea, eh?
-What is there to find out?

Except how to escape
from this horrible place.

You should've seen Billali
when I showed him this.

Almost knocked his
forehead on the floor,

Frightened out of his wits.

Said it was She secret.

Oh, why didn't you tell me?
-All in good time.

We don't know the secret yet,
but I'll wager pounds to pence

that you're the one person
who can get it from her.

Leo, please don't go to her.

Don't you worry, Tanya.

Holly, I'm going to get
to the bottom of this.

If she knows where the flame
burns, we're going to find it.

Leo...

It's hard to be kept waiting
when one has waited so long.

You must have known I'd come.
-You think blind chance brought you here?

I came because of an old story.

A woman escaped from this country and
told of a strange adventure and died.

She left this for her son.

This woman was the wife of...
-John Vincey.

John Vincey died 500 years ago.
How can you know his name?

Think back, far back.
Oh, my beloved...

You will, you can. Another life,
a far-off forgotten place...

This place.

And my voice uttering words you vowed to
remember through endless time, think.

Your voice? You.

Were you the same?
-Always to you, always.

Offering all, wanting all.

You mean, we...

I can't believe...

I have no memories.

I will show you how to look
across the mist of time.

That one moment out
of all the centuries.

That one instant when
I felt myself beloved.

Who was that man?
-You do not know?

It can't be.

I dare not believe it.

You will believe.

Come.

Do you wonder whose feet
have worn away this rock?

Once, this stair
was new and level.

But I've passed here day by day.

And, see, my sandals have
eaten off the solid stone.

Now, in a moment, you will
remember that other life.

I, I see myself.

Swept by the tides of time
back to my arms.

Centuries ago, you were someone
else as I was this man here.,

No, no. I'm the same.
My life and youth endured.

All through the years I've
mourned here where your body lay.

But now...

You are reborn,

And my mourning has ended.

Your coming is the sign
of my forgiveness.

Forgiveness? For what?

I know why you've come to call.
You seek the flame of life.

Even as I came, a young girl,
so many lives ago.

I took the burden of immortality
upon my shoulders...

and wore it through unbelievable years,
dark, with a loneliness

through which there shone a
single light, fixed and unwavering.

The hope of love...

And so I waited,
waited for a bridegroom.

Whose passion for life
would be as fierce as my own.

You came, John Vincey,
and I loved you.

For one moment, you were mine.

You turned from me.

You had not come alone.

And, in my jealousy, I...

I killed you.

Again, I waited, seeming
longer than before.

But I knew you must return.

Your love of life must
be stronger than death.

And now you're here.

Nothing shall stand between us.
-But I'm not John Vincey.

Oh, my love. Take away my eyes.
Let darkness utterly shut me in.

And still my ears would know the
sound of your unforgotten voice.

If I could only remember.

If you've forgotten me, then that
woman who held you in spite of me...

You've forgotten her as well?
-Yes.

I've forgotten.
-She wasn't beautiful.

She had no wisdom such as mine.

Yet, you could never
quite leave her.

I've forgotten everything
but you, everything.

No, no. Now, as then, we
two are made of different clay.

Until you are as I
am, come no nearer.

Today, in the hall of kings the priest makes
sacrifice in gratitude for my enduring youth.

Then you shall come with me
and share my secret.

Leo?
-I say, Leo, what did you find out?

I've seen John Vincey.
-What?

I tell you, I saw him.

Now, be reasonable.

John Vincey is been dead
for, for 500 years.

I, I tell you, I,
I saw him lying there.

Holly, it was I, myself.

Now, one thing at a time.

You mean a mummified body
that looked like you?

No, no, Holly.

I saw myself lying there.

Are you trying to make me
believe in reincarnation?

You knew before that you
were the image of John Vincey.

We both knew that.

She has been waiting
for me to come back.

She says I am John Vincey.

Leo, don't listen to her.
Let's get away while there's time.

Holly...

She is going to show me the flame.

What? You hear that, Tanya?

Well, why didn't you say
so in the first place?

When?

When do we go?

You are not to see it.

But you said...
-I said she promised me the secret.

Well, then...

I see. Only you.
-Yes.

Oh?

You can't stay here. You'll go back
the way we came, you and Tanya,

As soon as the temple ceremony is over.
You'll be protected.

Then I go to the flame.
-Leo...

Don't lose your head, use it.
-I haven't lost my head.

I've found memories
you can't even imagine.

I've seen strangeness, beauty, power.
Yes, immortality. And I can share it.

But only I. Those are her terms.

What man would say no? Be fair.

Very well.

I'll take Tanya back with me.

But let me tell you one thing, Leo, you're
a fool, and you'll die for your folly.

Like your ancestor John Vincey.

Leo.

I'm sorry, Tanya.

Don't think of me, think of yourself.
-I am thinking of myself.

To live forever, it's, it's what
all men have dreamed of.

What's the use of living a thousand years
If you're going on being cruel and selfish?

Is a thousand years of that
any better than 70?

But people would change, grow good.
-Has she grown good?

Yes.

Did she let John Vincey escape?
Would she let you escape if...

if you loved me?

Tanya, I...

You're not tempted as I am.

Think of it, never to grow
old, never to feel age.

I can't give it up.

You will live here
in this, this tomb...

Always young with her.

You will never know age nor grief.

That isn't the kind of love I want.
-What is it you want?

Why, why...

Just two people to live together.

And to love each other.
To laugh at little things and...

And sometimes cry over big ones.

To share what, whatever comes
along. And to grow old together.

And, someday, when one is gone...

To hope to be
together again somewhere.

That isn't much to offer, is it? Compared
to kingdoms and power and glory...

that will never change.

Tanya...
-Hail, Vincey.

Hash-A-Mo-Tep sends me to tell you
that the festival of the sacred well

will begin at
the setting of the sun.

You and Holly will be guided
through the hall of kings.

And Tanya?

The lady may not come.

No woman may view
the ceremony of the well

but the maidens of the temple.
-I don't want to see any more ceremonies.

I'm going to talk to Holly again.

Tanya...

Stop.
-I must, I've got to talk to her.

Oh, why can't I
make you understand?

I'm sorry, I...

They wouldn't let me pass,
and I had to see you.

Well...

You, you are sending us away.

You will return
to your own country.

Yes, I know. Leo told us.

But, please...

What is it you want?

Let Leo come with us.
Send him away, too.

Send him away?

Are you mad?
-Please?

He came here following a dream-

A dream men have followed
since the first son saw his father die.

He alone, of all men,
has realized that dream,

And you ask me to send him away,
to send him back to you...

and your little mortal love.
-No, no, even if he never loves me...

I have to make you understand,
it's not for myself.

I'm pleading for him.
-You're pleading for him?

What can you or the world you live in

offer him that will last
longer than a miserable human life?

After the festival in the hall of kings,
there be slaves waiting at the outer wall.

To guide you in safety
to your little world.

Go now.

Go if you fear my anger.

Then if you won't send him back, well,
will you let me stay here

where I can see him sometimes?
What harm can that do?

What can it take away from you?
You will have everything.

You will have him.

I shall have nothing if you take
away being near him.

I'm taking nothing away
from you that was ever yours.

He has been mine since...

Why do I stand here
talking with you? Go now.

Why are you afraid of me?

Afraid?

You are afraid. And now I see why.

Because I'm human, and you're not.

Because I'm young, and you know
love belongs to the young.

Your magic makes you seem young,
but in your heart, you're old, old.

You were young once like me, but now you're
old, and it's too late for love forever.

He will never love you. I know that now.
Keep him here.

Make him king over your slaves and
savages, but he'll never love you.

Never, never, never...
-Go.

She came here from his arms.

The sacrifice within the hour.

In the hall of kings...

He shall sit beside you
on the throne and watch her die.

And not know.

Who can be blamed if she wanders
away and no one can find her?

Send men to search.

Show concern for his sorrow.

All the while knowing
that he watched her die.

And she, through her veil,
saw him watching.

What is this?

Where are you taking me?

What is this? What are they doing?

Is She's command.

She sends you
as an offering for the flames.

No. Leo, Leo...

Foolish one.

Would you destroy him, too?
If he could hear you, if he knew your fate,

What could he do?

Let him try to save you and he will
be set upon by soldiers and priests.,

He will die with you.

But he shall not know.

This is a happy festival
for Kor...

The happiest of all for me.

That girl they're bringing in,
what does she do?

She carries to the gods
my gratitude.

For the gift of enduring life.

Carries to the... How?

You shall see.

Is she a dancer, too?

No...

She will not dance.

Is this a human sacrifice?

It's the immemorial custom
of the people of Kor.

Is that...?
-Can't be.

Who is that girl?

Who is it? Is it Tanya?

It's Tanya.

Go to the stairs.

Through those doors.

Here is what you sought. So the flame of life
has leap from the earth since the time began.

What does the flame
or anything else matter now?

I want no power you have to give.
I want nothing you have to give.

He thinks he loves you now.
I can wait.

Wait?

For what?

For you to grow old.

Until then, you will be cared for
as my dearest possession.

And he?

He will bathe in the
flame and be as I am.

You will grow old, withered, ugly.

And when at last, repelled,
he turns from you.

I shall be standing
by his side unchanged.

And if I won't go in the flame?

You have no choice.

If you refuse...

the girl shall die.
-Kill me, then.

You mean, if I refuse to go in
the flame, you'll have her killed?

Oh, Leo, I'd rather die now.

I'll always love you, Tanya.
-No, no.

Trust me. Believe in my love.

I'm ready.
-No, Leo, it's a trick.

How do you know you
won't be burned alive?

If I stand in the flame
and come forth unharmed,

Then will you follow?

I will.

Don't think you can
go unpunished forever.

Somewhere, there's a power that won't
let such wickedness and cruelty go on.

Your hair will whiten.

Your eyes will lose their brightness.
Your cheeks will wrinkle.

Your limbs will wither...

While I defy the years
and laugh at time.

I call upon the flame
most powerful, most swift...

Preserver of life
and youth and beauty.

Your eyes will lose
their brightness.

Your cheeks will wrinkle.

Your limbs will wither.

While I defy the years
and laugh at time.

Now do you believe
I spoke the truth? My love.

I can't see you clearly.

My eyes, the flame...

My voice sounds strange
to my ears.

I die. I die.

Have pity on my shame.

I remember, long ago, a garden...

In the sun.

Dead? She cannot die.

A party of slaves that were to guide you.
The gold symbol, will be safe.

She told me.

The greatest secret in the world,
we're turning our backs on it.

She staggered to the ground, a
withered creature, incredibly old.

And so she died terribly and pitifully
even as her lips spoke of eternal life.

Though she was dead, "the power of her
golden symbol reached out and held us safe.

And so, after incredible adventures,
we escaped to the outer world.

Thus we lived to record the story
In this manuscript.

It seems as though
it couldn't have happened.

Why, no one could believe it
unless they'd been there with us.

Now that we're safe
in this friendly world,

Do you know, I feel sorry for her.

We never shall know
what really did happen.

I sometimes think that her
bathing in the flame a second time...

was an overexposure to that terrifically
powerful unknown element.

And sometimes I think that such...

such inhuman immortality
was never meant to be,

And some greater power than she...

reached out and and destroyed her.

After all, Holly, perhaps there
is no real flame of life.

I think there is.

Yes. Right here.
-Here?

In this fireplace-

The flame in any fireplace in any home where
two people live and love each other...

and, and their hearts.

The End
