All language subtitles for 17. Carlos, Rey Emperador - 2015 - Sp. serie - EP 17 (av 17) - HD 1920x1080p

Previously...
We are retreating.
I will ask for a truce.

We disarmed the Emperor, my son.
Here you have his sword.

Damn it! Sometimes I would
like to take his place.

Before he keeps reducing, with his mistakes,
what I will get one day.

- I am going to kill the dying man.
- You accepted to negotiate a truce with him.

Only in Flanders.
I am talking about Italy.

I wish to retire. I don't want
my decline to cause that of my domains.

But don't worry, I know
my will cannot be complied immediately.

Your mother. You have to govern
Casile in her name until she dies.

- Father, I would like to marry again.
- Do you have candidates?

My cousin Maria of Portugal
has not been married off yet.

I left her in Portugal
and didn't look behind.

- What kind of a mother behaves likes like that?
- Ours.

Let us forgive
each other.

Both of us. Let us be mother
and daughter, even if just one time.

Your Majesty,
the King of England is dead.

Marry Mary Tudor?

It would associate us with England and, giving it an heir,
Catholicism would be perpetuated in that kingdom.

Let all Castile know
that their queen is dead.

I have no strength any more
to govern the states that God gave me.

I cannot do you any services
the way those will who receive my legacy.

It is my will that the King of England should enjoy
the privileges and rights he deserves by his title.

You are the legitimate emperor. And as such,
you can choose your worthy successor.

My lord!
France has invaded Naples.

Prepare everything.
We are leaving.

Father

Monastery of Yuste

My sister Eleanor wishes to go to Portugal
to live with her daughter in her last years.

Fair desire.

The Crown of Portugal
protects your order.

You have had occasion
to get to know their court well.

Will King John agree to
grant Eleanor's wish?

Your Majesty,

the portuguese Crown took it
as a very grave offense

that your son's engagement
with the Infanta was broken off.

I know.
So does my sister.

That is why she applies to my authority
to mediate in this issue.

The royal couple loves
the Infanta as a daughter.

They will show resistance
but they will not go against it.

Let us hope
it will be so.

Eleanor has earned to see
this last aspiration come to true.

When do we expect
my grandson's visit?

Next week,
Your Majesty.

I will best write that letter
as soon as possible.

God lets us abdicate of an empire
but not of our relatives.

It seems in this war the King of France wages
against me everyone takes him as the winner.

Listen:

the King is pusillanimous
and inexperienced

since he has never fought a battle
neither seems to be capable of that.

His inheritance is dispersed and his states
are sunk in continuous conflicts.

Pushing one of his pieces,
all the others will collapse afterwards.

Typical gosspis of the Venetian
ambassadors. You will get used to it.

When you face your enemy
on the battlefield

everyone will have
to shut his mouth.

It is actually truw that this war
has to settle your reign.

What you do in it will decide how they
will look at you in the years to come.

My mother,
the Empress,

thought that a good king doesn't have to
go to battle to demonstrate his greatness.

Although there were
none better than her,

she was a woman
in the end.

No doubt, I have to go to battle now
and have to come out victorious.

Because I know I am risking
my prestige before my enemies.

And before
my friends.

Your Majesty.

- Did you wish to see me?
- Come closer.

We will not attack
what Henry conquered.

We will invade
France itself.

We will do it on the north. On the south, we would
have to go through the Pyrenees, and from Milan

we should recover Savoy before
to enter France.

We have to choose well
where we strike.

We need a city important enough
so that its defeat

procures us
the prestige we need.

And so that its fall cuts
the French advance towards Flanders,

facilitating ours
towards Paris.

So,

it could only
be Péronne,

or Saint-Quentin.

Do you agree
with my opinion?

No one would have calculated better
the strategy to follow.

Péronne
or Saint-Quentin?

Saint-Quentin obligates to take
smaller places to secure the position,

but its defenses are
more vulnerable.

- Saint-Quentin, then.
- Will your wife support us?

With that, we would
have the war half won.

My duke,

I am the King of England.

Nobles of England,

God has led home
the King, our lord.

You have been
so...

cordial to my nobles that I thought
they would never leave us alone.

For them,
I am only

the Queen's husband.

I have to earn
their trust.

Do you imagine
that

that would be
your only one job?

To be the Queen's husband.

That would be
the most beautiful of the tasks.

But God has wanted to burden my shoulders
with troublesome obligations.

And I have to talk
to you about them.

Let us give ourselves
some minutes.

It is a matter
of great importance.

Are there anything more important
than the succession?

Your Majesty.

Charles,

my grandson
and heir.

Finally, here.

Your Majesty,

why did you choose such
a secluded place to live?

Of all the favors
God has given me,

this dwelling is the one
I am most grateful for.

I will be like you
in everything.

Except in the end
of my days.

It is a sovereign's obligation
to surpass his predecessor.

You will be better than your father,
and, this way, better than me, too.

I will really
surpass both of you.

Are you planning the campaign
against the French?

It is your father
the King's job now.

What are you doing here?
Leave us!

Come on!

Harsh treatment with someone
who did nothing except serving us.

I just treated him
as a servant.

Accept this gift.

Read Caesar.

And learn that it is not the same
to play war as wage war.

But you ran away!

You ran away
from the Lutherans!

I will never run away!
Never ever ever!

I would have won
or would have died.

It is getting late.

His Highness
has to go back.

Despite everything, my biggest wish
is that I keep being like you.

Did you know about
my grandson's character?

Deed like the one you witnessed
are not new.

Though, according to what they say,
they are less and less frequent.

Where have we
gone wrong?

Your grandson has lived
without mother and far from his father.

- The King's return will bring order.
- My grandson needs to have him close.

I was also absent
for long times

but the Empress was always
together with our children.

Bring me
the box.

Of campaign in Germany, everybody
remembers the victory In Muhlberg.

But I suffered a grave defeat there
that only a few people know.

If it was so grave
how could you keep it in secret?

It only affects
my person and my soul.

- Do you wish to confess?
- God already knows my sin.

I am not applying to you as
priest but as man.

And as friend.

But I order you
to keep it in secret.

In those days, I let myself
be gripped by a woman,

of which meeting
she gave me a son.

Don't look at me with this face,
for God's sake!

I am not the first one
who sins.

And it would not be the first time.
You know about my daughter Margaret.

- But that was before your marriage.
- Of course!

I was always
faithful to her!

At least,
in life.

Does God have nothing
to forgive you, perhaps?

There is no sin that God could not forgive
with His infinite mercy, Your Majesty.

He will do so
with yours.

And I hope he will
with mine.

I want to
get to know him.

He lives in the village of Cuacos
with my steward Quijada and his wife.

- Have you brought him here?
- You will go to find him.

But keep your tongue
under 7 locks.

He doesn't know
I am his father.

And I want to get to know him when he doesn't
know he is speaking with the emperor.

I bought
two good hounds.

There is no better dog
for hunting than an English dog.

My lord,

my lords are opposed to
the war against France.

What makes them refuse to help their king
in a moment of such necessity?

They allude to marriage settlements
that you signed yourself.

There is a part that England
would not fight in the Emperor's wars.

The Emperor's?

You and I are the owners of the territories
that France wants to have.

- This is our war!
- England wants peace.

Do I deny it, perhaps? Let us defeat
France and there will be peace.

Your Highness,

I suspect that amongat those who advise you
someone wants our kingdom in hands of the French.

Prudence can lead
to mistake.

- But it should not be taken for treason.
- Tell me:

and do they advise you not to recognise
your sister Elizabeth as your successor?

- Half-sister!
- Half-sister.

Those felons prefer that
the Queen of Scotland succeeds you.

Mary Stuart lives in France,
waiting for marrying the Dauphin!

Permit if you like that the next monarchs
of France will be those of England.

You are sure that
I cannot give you children?

Where are our children?
Where are they?

How should I conceive
with an absent husband?

God!

Queens of England,
what kind of curse do we have?

I know
you are right.

I know that appointing Elizabeth as
my successor would keep the danger away.

But how could one forget
24 years of suffering?

The Boleyn woman
caused your disgrace.

- And she already paid with her head for harm she caused you.
- And do I have to legitimize

her marriage with my father
by appointing my half-sister as heiress?

- Your Highness...
- You don't know what my life has been like.

The repugnance it causes me to betray
my mother's memory like this.

I am on your side.

I will look
after you.

Always.

I will do whatever is necessary
to get you my lords' support.

But about Elizabeth...!

We will talk about
Elizabeth later.

And may God want it

that before Mary Stuart's wedding
with the Dauphin of France

you and I create
the next king of England.

Jerónimo!

For that is how
you are known.

- Are you not?
- Your Majesty.

- I see you have already been told who I am.
- No one said anything, my lord.

Then?

In the village, we all live
to serve Your Majesty.

And I have seen everyone
some time.

Do you like
clocks?

I don't need them.
I am going to be a soldier.

Like everyone.

Anyone can be
a soldier.

But if what you want is commanding an army,
it is not enough if you play with a lath.

Do you like
reading?

At home, we read
things of saints.

One can learn
from them, too.

But read Caesar.

He was one of my masters
in the art of war.

Now, go.

But...
why have you called me?

Because you remind me
of my son.

The King?

I would like to be with him,
defeating the French.

Patience...
As far as I know,

there will always be a war
to win against France.

Be prepared.

I would say the Emperor will wish
to see you again, sooner than later.

- But... he dismissed me.
- Well.

Today His Majesty
has had a bad day.

The gout is
a very tiring illness.

Lisbon

What do you think?

It is understandable that a mother
wants to live near her daughter.

Why does it
worries you?

Does the breaking off
of the engagement annoy you so much?

I worry
about Eleanor.

Don't get me
wrong.

I don't want to stir up the past
being at the end of my life.

I just wish your peace and your
feelings were not disturbed.

Thank you.

Then let our Maria
meet her mother.

Because it is your duty
as a good Christian.

I have only one
petition to you.

That Eleanor should not
come to live in Portugal.

There cannot be two queens
in the Court.

Especially
if the two are sisters.

I will be
as you wish.

I will give the Infanta
the good news myself.

I don't even
remember my mother.

I was just a child
when she left.

In that respect, her childhood
was not different from yours.

Only the obedience to the Emperor
separated her from you.

She has always
written to you.

And I have followed
her advice.

I know about her concern
for me.

And I have her present
in my prayers.

This way
it is a blessing for you.

Do you believe so?

We better leave thins
as God has disposed.

- Do you refuse to grant her wish?
- Understand me!

- We are two strangers.
- But she is your mother.

No.

You have been
my mother.

It is from
the portuguese court.

Your sister will not be able to live
with her daughter the way she wished.

King John refuses
to forget the insult...

Only God knows if my sister Catherine
did what she had to to convince him.

Your Majesty,

it is Infanta Maria herself
who declines.

Your Highnesses.

Does Castile give you
good treatment?

We cannot complain
about anything.

Do you have news
from Portugal?

The Court of Lisbon refuses
that you meet your daughter.

That Philip broke off his engagement with her,
it is an insult they are not going to forget.

Is that all that
you have done for me?

You have always
had your way.

I had to leave Maria
because of you!

- Intercede one more time!
- I granted your request.

- I cannot do more.
- You are the emperor!

Your daughter is princess
in Portugal.

- It is their king who...
-
No!

Only your disinterest
takes her away from me!

I have given you my life and now
you condemn me to die alone!

Like you! But you have
chosen it for yourself.

You have heart of stone!
I will never forgive you!

I am afraid this disappointment
worsens Eleanor's poor health.

Before we both leave
let me try to convince

the royal couple
of Portugal.

You will not
achieve anything.

You should know that it is our niece who
refuses to pay respect to her mother's request.

- But you said...
- Is it not easier

to accept the disillusion
of a brother than of a child?

For Eleanor's sake,
I ask you to keep it in secret.

Please.

I will go to Portugal anyway.
I wish to get to know our sister Catherine.

Do you think that stubborn Infanta
will obey you more than me?

She will listen to Catherine.
She raised her.

I will make our sister make
Eleanor's request hers.

Children and parents have to be close
when they need each other.

There is no
greater truth.

My lord!
Leave us with the King.

I made the Coucil understand that
the war against France is our war, too.

Can I expect then
England's support?

My fleet will
cover the Channel.

7000 men will go to France
and join your army.

Some of my lords will accompany you
in your return to the Continent.

But...

you have to comply
with something.

If it is also
England's war

the victory will have
to be ours as well.

My troops will participate
in the decisive battle

- or the lords would not forgive us.
- You can count in it.

I am giving you
my word.

And all my gratitude.

When will you
leave?

As soon as
possible.

There are many
things pending.

There cannot be
other answer.

I know.

I know...

You are too
virtuous.

Virtuous?

No, my lord!

There is not virtue in this world that
my love for you could not overcome.

It is fear to show
that might displeases you!

Why are you saying
such a thing?

What sin have I committed that God
punishes me in such a cruel way?

I swore... I swore as a young girl that
I would not suffer the torments of love and now...

And now I find myself together
with a young and vigorous husband,

and I am without head
or will!

Never...

May God

never want it that you love
someone who cannot requite.

- Have you read it already?
- Yes, Your Majesty.

And what is it
that you liked the most?

When Caesar encourages
his men to go to battle.

Then you have learned
something important.

A general is the soul
of his army.

If his men believe in him
and he believes in victory

nothing will
stop them.

Then take the second lesson
of the art of war.

One cannot
win always.

It is always more difficult
to retreat than to fight.

But the general who sees
himself obligated to it

shows more courage than the one who fails
in his duty and endangers everything

so that his honor
could not be criticized.

But...
honor is everything.

Do you also believe that honor cannot exist
not only after a retreat but also

after an escape?

- Is it possible, perhaps?
- That will be the third lesson.

Do you allow me?

Accept this gift.

I will give you them
according to how you read them.

Have you written
about your campaigns?

I started a book
years ago.

Well, that is what
I would like to read.

His Majesty attempted to ease his pain,
undertaking continuous travels,

battling without rest
against his rivals.

But neither the victories nor the power
he had over so many creatures of God

eased the agony he lived in
after the Empress's death.

His Majesty cosidered that, because of
the difficulties said above, there was no...

His Majesty wanted to spend
his last days in Yuste,

where other sorts of battles
turned up every other day.

There he brought to him a youngster
who was named Jerónimo.

Enough!

God has wanted me
to get here.

Go!

- Maria, come closer!
- Don't tire yourself.

Come closer,
I am telling you.

I am dying.

I want to ask you
to go with your mother.

I owe this
to her.

I will go calm
only if she is happy.

Will you
do it?

Will you
do it?

I will.

Let us hug each other
finally like sisters.

If the regency didn't obligate me
I would gladly go with you

and join our siblings
finally.

How much I yearned for your closeness
when I was child!

And I envied you for being
together with Mother.

It was very hard

and painful.

I know.

That is why our sister Eleanor's
suffering hurts me

for not being able
to meet her daughter.

She is ill.

I believe she will
not live long.

Don't worry.

Will the Infanta
grant her request?

She will, because she said so
to my husband at his deathbed.

Your Highness! A large French contingent
is nearing Saint-Quentin,

to break our siege.

- What do we know about the English reinforcements?
- They have already disembarked

but they need rest and supply.
They will not arrive in 2 days.

- We will wait.
- It is hour of action!

Your army is waiting only for
your arrival to start the storm!

- If you leave now we will have...
- Did you not hear me, perhaps?

The fortune of the English tied to mine
if we don't want them to turn their backs on us.

- Go and talk to Alba.
- My lord,

lose this battle
and you will lose it all.

I know I have to go into battle.
But go and wait to the limit.

What madness is this? The Frensh standards
are descried now. And the King?

The King has to wait for the English
and you have to wait for the King.

Monsignor, we are not here
to do politics. This is war!

Either we go to meet the Constable
or we will see ourselves exposed to cross-fire.

- It is now or never.
- You have heard me!

- You must wait.
- Waiting is being defeated.

- We have to go to the limit.
- We have already left that behind.

Know that the defeat
will be only yours,

but the victory
will be the King's.

I am with family
here.

And the natural understanding
that has united us

has made it possible that
your fair wish comes true.

The Infanta will accompany me when I return,
and, passing the border,

you will be able to hug
your daughter finally.

Battle of Saint-Quentin
August 1557

Duke.

The victory against France
is round and complete.

The battle of Saint-Quentin will be
remembered with that of Pavia or Mühlberg.

As the great triumph
of the Hispanic monarchy.

I was absent in the three
alike.

Your Majesty.

This victory
is yours

because you disposed everything
so that it could be possible.

The triumph is so great
that nothing else matters.

Everyone will
cheer you for it.

We still have to enter the city
and beat other resistances.

The battle continues
and you will be in it.

More than 5000 Frenchmen
died in the battle.

Among our men,
we hardly have 300 losses.

And many only
suffer injuries.

The prisoners
are waiting.

There is no family in France that can boast
of not being beaten here by you.

This is the victory
God has wanted.

And, no doubt,
it has been a great victory.

My lord, the standards of the army
of Frane are at your feet.

Because your victory
has been just and noble.

Get up,
Constable.

The courage you demonstrated
in the battle

will only increase
your fame.

Let me present you
to your prisoners.

Duke of Montpensier.

Duke of Longueville.

Prince of Mantua.

Your Majesty. Your son the King achieved
a great victoriy in Saint-Quentin.

The French army was
completely defeated.

Did the King
command his men?

- I don't know, my lord.
- He must have.

- It was his duty.
- Yes, of course.

- But, fortunately, he will come back soon.
- God forbid.

The King of France still
has his Italian army.

Don't doubt that he will try
to get back what he lost.

Or recoup himself, taking some place
that restores his prestige.

The King has to go to Paris!
And he has to do it now.

Only this way
the victory will be definitive.

- Your Majesty, will you not finish the meal?
- I have to write to my son.

He must not commit
the same mistake as I did.

- We have to advance towards Paris.
- Why take risks?

No. It is fair
what I want to avoid.

But the defeat of the French
has been indisputable.

It will be
when I enter Paris on the front of my men.

You are right,
my lord.

But we don't know the forces
that protect the capital.

If we advance, King Henry will order
the troops in Italy to assist him

and we could see ourselves
between hell and high water.

Neither the Flemings nor the English
will support you. We won.

They will not risk
any more lives and money.

Do you want to annex France, perhaps?
You know that is quite impossible.

You are not going to obtain more
from this war than you already have.

Do you think
the same?

My heart is with you,
Your Majesty.

But reason takes sides
with Monsignor.

Come here,
my son.

We have to face
the adversity together.

Deprived as we are
of our best men.

Today, you are the heir
of a defeated kingdom.

May god want it that my shame
will not be yours as well.

Was the defeat
so big?

If the Spaniards take the road
towards Paris

- all will be lost.
- Do you want to surrender?

Never!
But you must know

that only the providence
and a bold strike could save us.

And the two things rarely
happen at the same time.

God will do his part.
What do we have to do?

Our army comes back from Italy.
If Philip delays his advance

we can still defend
the capital.

But what do you mean by boldness?
Reconquer Saint-Quentin?

If we save
Paris,

that is the strike
they expect.

And that will be the one
we will not give.

We will take...

- Calais.
- Calais?

Father,
this is madness.

You will provoke that England
will return to help Philip.

No.
On the contraty.

This war has caused so much fear
amongst the English that

they will make him responsible
for their loss

and will turn
against him.

Do you trust me?

For France!
For the victory!

And the Infanta?

The Portuguese border

Don't search.
No one is coming with me.

- But your letter...
- Everything happened as I told you

until the moment
of departure.

No!

They are called siblings and they are not
capable of relieving my misfortune!

They make my daughter pay
for their mutual grievances!

- Don't offend God with these words.
- Do you still defend them?

It is your daughter
who refuses to live with you.

I tried to make her change her mind
but it was in vain.

She didn't even respect the word
she gave to King John on his deathbed.

Charles withheld it from you because he wanted
to save you from such a bitter.

May God forgive me
but this is the truth.

Do you know
what the Emperor advises me?

To march
on Paris!

That is not within the confines of possibility.
The army King Henry had in Italy is in France now.

That is right! Now nothing can be done.
But in that moment, it could have. And much!

The arguments that were advanced then
are so valid today.

If I had ignored your advice
Paris would be mine.

And instead of disappointing the Emperor,
I would have demonstrated

that I am capable of governing
without his advice!

What kind of victory is this
that I got?

Paris.
He should have taken Paris.

Maybe he is
still in time.

I calculate that the army of Piedmont
could be around here now.

With the threat of those reinforcements
it would be madness to venture.

What detains
the King?

Money.

Or perhaps the mistake of thinking that after
the great victory he achieved the war is already resolved.

Sometimes we cannot take
the right decision.

You did so.

Escaping.

Does escaping not deprive
a general of honor, then?

You would have been
a bad general and worse emperor

if you had let
yourself be caught.

Who did you ask about
what happened?

Your father?

I don't have
a father.

- But Quijada cares for you as such.
- I know.

And everyone thinks I am his son.
But I know I am not.

My lord!
Wake up!

France has taken
Calais.

- May God help the Queen!
- Ask for us, too.

Because England will accuse us
of having caused such a grave damage.

When I die

the name of Calais will
appear graven in my heart.

Eleanor...

Drink a sip
at least.

Do it for me.

From our mother,
I learnt

not to put obstacles
before the inevitable things.

Fight.
Fight!

I beg you.

Don't abandon me.

Mary...

The only happiness
left for me

is death.

Queen of France
and of Portugal.

How many women envied me
for being who I was?

And I would have gladly been
anyone of them.

History will not give queens
as miserable

as those
of our family.

I was the most powerful man

and I was incapable of granting
an anguished woman's request.

We don't achieve many things
when our life nears its end.

But if you take stock of
all that you have achieved

you will have to
be satisfied.

There is much distance between
what I intended to do and what I achieved.

That has only one name:
failure.

Charles, today
melancholy speaks for you.

I didn't finish
with the heresy,

neither overcame
the infidels,

nor managed to unite the Christendom
in one universal monarchy.

Maybe the goals you set out
were too high.

I should have
killed Luther.

God will not forgive me that
the heresy have struck root in the Empire.

What remains
from so much endeavor?

My son ignores
my advice.

And my grandson...

- I don't know what to think of him.
- Philip will maintain the Empire

with firm
and secure hand.

He will not let
his son mislead it.

Old age...

Well, longing is
worth nothing now.

Just like Eleanor,
we are also denied everything.

What elso do you want
to ask of the Lord at this time?

You are where
you wanted to be.

And you met
your son.

That boy you saw
fills me up.

Because there is nothing
I don't like about him.

However...

- he is not her son.
- But he is your son.

Legitimize him if he has demonstrated
that he is worthy of you.

Do you believe
I have not thought about that?

But that would go against
the memory of Isabella.

- What would say Philip, moreover?
- Philip would respect your will.

Jerónimo is
child of sin.

And I have not some here
to satisfy my wishes

but to prepare myself
to leave.

Is that the penitence
you have forced upon yourself?

Denying yourself the desire that
that boy looks at you as father?

You would be better welcomed in heaven
if you thought of him before of yourself.

And if that is not enough for you,
think as emperor

before as man.

This child you think so highly of
can be very valuable for our family.

How great empress
you would have been!

I am leaving.

And I am taking you
in my heart.

And think about that,
brother,

if God had not wanted you
to have that son

He would not have
given you him.

Your Majesty!

What is wrong?

Heat stroke.

Let us go
inside.

Your Majesty.

No, no...
Don't get up.

They have to draw blood
so that your fever lowers.

Then is it not
a heat stroke?

I have to ask you
to settle something.

And it has to be done
without delay.

I want to watch
my own funeral.

Caesar grabbed a soldier's shield
and went to stand on the front.

Calling the centurions
by their names

and heartening the others,
he commanded the advance.

With his presence,
the soldiers invigorated

each one wishing to make
their last efforts,

at the sight of the general
in the middle of their biggest danger.

- What does he tell you when he leaves here?
- When we went back

he insisted that they serve you
marrow for dinner.

He was ill once.
He thinks that was what saved him.

My poor son!

The thing that should reproach me the most
is that he stays by my side now.

Your other children are prince and princesses
and have to run the business of these kingdoms.

Don't pay attention
to my words.

They are grumbles of a man
who sees his hour coming.

-
Your Majesty...
- Don't tire me.

You know as well as I know
that everything is done.

Listen to, then,
what I have to tell you.

A most important thing
and I need it from you.

I will serve you
in anything you ask.

I am going to add a codicil
to my testament.

In that, I will recognize
my son Jerónimo.

God will be very happy for
your decision, Your Majesty.

I would like to
give him our surname

and I would like him to get
a name of a prince of the family.

Juan.

In memory
of my mother.

The name
she wanted me to have.

And what do you
want from me?

I am not going to
do it in my life.

That is why I ask you to see to it
that my son keeps my will.

Your Majesty,

will you die

without hearing that this child
who you love now calls you father?

Fulfill
my order.

What am I reading you today,
Your Majesty?

There is no more time
for readings.

Don't cry.

The king's best soldier
must not cry.

And the Emperor
must not surrender.

Come closer.

I have sent
for you

because I have to tell you
something important

I am very proud
of you.

I also want

ask your forgiveness.

What do I have to
forgive you?

Goodbye,
my son.

Goodbye,
Your Majesty.

I will come tomorroy
and I will read you the end.

Yes...

We will get to know
the end tomorrow.

The troops are ready.
These news must be sent to the Emperor.

May God want that
it restores his faith in me.

My lord, that letter is not
going to arrive in time.

You must
prepare yourself.

The Emperor
is dying.

The Empress's crucifix.

I am holding on
to the cross

that accompanied you
in your last breath.

May God let us
meet soon.

My hour
has come.

This is
the moment.

Ay, Jesus!
