[ominous music continues]

[woman] Countess Erzsebet Bathory.

Ah, a vampire.

Who sent you?

I've heard you committed many terrible crimes, countess.

The murder of who knows how many boys and girls.

The most evil woman in the world.

Which makes you perfect.

"Murder" is a vulgar word.

And the men who imprisoned me, how many have they murdered?

They would murder me.

But I cursed them, and they're afraid.

Instead, they lock you in this tower to wither and die,

forgotten and alone.

If you're here to kill me, do it now.

I'm here to make you a god.

If you prove to be worthy.

Of course I'm worthy.

But what do you mean?

What is a god?

Is there such a thing?

[Drolta] I mean, "She before whom evil trembles."

Sekhmet.

Goddess of war.

[thunder crashes]

And who are you?

I am your faithful servant.

[somber, ethereal music plays]

Are you all right?

Yes.

Let's go.

- [snarling] - [music fades]

[Alucard] The English did it.

Over a century ago, beheaded their king.

[Richter] Oh.

Does it happen a lot?

The monarchies of Europe will be horrified.

Already, some of them are waging war on France.

They'll be joined by the rest.

The Vampire Messiah plans to lead them,

commander in chief of the counterrevolution.

And just this street rabble to resist her.

Who won't stand a chance, will they?

No.

[gloomy music plays]

And that's where we're going.

That's where Sekhmet's mummy is. I think.

[ghostly whispering]

[eerie music playing]

Are you sure you're all right?

[melancholy music plays]

Let's destroy this thing

and give Sekhmet a second death.

[disorienting music plays]

[Maria] Do you think God will save you if you pray enough?

[Abbot] No.

[Maria] Why do you pray then?

I wasn't praying for myself.

[Maria scoffs]

Do you still think God moves through you?

[ominous music plays]

I am sorry about your mother, Maria.

No. You're not.

You were going to let Erzsebet do it to me.

Though, to begin with, you thought she was only going to kill me,

and that was all right, too.

I knew your soul would ascend to Heaven.

Did you? I'm not a good Christian.

I don't come to church. I don't say my prayers.

The revolution, which I support with all my heart,

has declared you its bitter enemy.

So if you're right, in what you believe about God, I mean,

I wasn't bound for Heaven anyway.

Maria.

[Abbot gasps]

[hoarsely] I only wanted to protect the kingdom of God.

Maria!

[grunts]

[gasps]

[melancholy music plays]

This isn't what your mother wants.

How do you know what my mother wants?

[Juste] She sent me here to stop you.

Why?!

Because you're good, Maria.

Your power is a force for good in the world.

Not for killing stupid old men.

Most of what's bad in the world is because of stupid old men!

[dramatic music plays]

[hoarsely] Oh, God.

Oh, heavenly Father.

Maria!

[Juste sighs]

[melancholy string music plays]

Take her somewhere safe.

These dark, monstrous things,

she should leave them alone.

Or they'll corrupt her and destroy her.

[music fades]

Is that what you want?

[eerie music plays]

[eerie music continues]

[music intensifies]

[music fades]

[footsteps approaching]

- [twig breaks] - Huh?

[tense music plays]

[music fades]

You must be the monk.

I'm Juste Belmont. Richter's grandfather.

Is she all right?

[Juste] She just killed her father.

Did the devil come?

I don't know if it was the devil.

Something came.

Did he accept his death?

- Did he face it with courage? - [Maria scoffs]

No.

[Mizrak sighs]

[Maria] So, that's who you are.

You do Speaker magic.

Though you didn't when you were fighting my mother.

When Richter regained his magic, he said it was because he had to.

You didn't need to do it for me. I could have saved myself.

- [eerie music playing] - No, you couldn't, Maria.

Fire and ice and wind,

they're just the elements.

Things in this world we learn how to bend to our will.

But those things you conjure, they're from a place we don't understand.

Maybe the same place where your father's soul was dragged.

Of course it's not the same place.

Whatever it is, those monsters, they're conjured from despair, Maria.

Despair will rot you from the inside out.

You're Richter's grandfather. Not mine.

So maybe you should mind your own business.

You don't have children, do you, monks?

Well, you're not supposed to.

I've never understood that vow-of-chastity business,

to be honest.

Doesn't sound healthy to me.

Not having children, though,

that makes a lot of sense.

[pleasant classical music playing]

[Richter] This was a palace, then, was it?

Handed over to the people, yeah.

[ghostly whispering, whooshing]

Oh. Leonardo.

It's a painting by Leonardo da Vinci of a woman he actually couldn't abide.

Or so he told me.

[chuckles softly]

I've never really thought it was one of his best.

Is there any order to all of this?

Or do you just put things anywhere?

We're looking for ancient Egyptian.

[ominous music plays]

[snorts]

[music fades]

Do you need anything?

I need to be left alone.

[tense music playing]

[sighs]

[soft rustling]

[eerie sting]

[ominous music plays]

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,

I will fear no evil.

[music fades]

You've been branded.

[sighs]

So you've made your choice.

I'm too old and too strong to mark easily, Mizrak.

This will fade.

So will you.

You will fade.

Erzsebet's army will march on Paris soon.

Drolta is gone already,

to kill your friends.

I thought you'd want to know.

Richter's grandfather is here.

If he sees you, he will want to kill you.

[scoffs gently]

He won't be able to kill me any more than his daughter could.

Yes, you murdered her.

In revenge, you say.

But killing is what you do.

You're a creature without honor.

Every moment I spend with you dishonors me.

Yet what stirs your heart is not disgust or hate.

What is it then?

[Olrox] Longing.

Desire.

[haunting music plays]

Love?

[shudders]

[stifles sob]

Get thee behind me, Satan.

Um...

So we're looking for a corpse.

[Alucard] It's here. I'm sure of it.

[ghostly whispering]

[mysterious music playing]

Show me.

What?

There are spirits here.

Many spirits.

They've been following us.

Following me.

Show me.

Why didn't you tell us?

Because I don't know what they want.

Or if they're real.

Do they speak to you?

No.

Sometimes they seem angry.

There are spirits here now who just seem lost.

Or is it me that's lost?

What's happening with them now?

Could they be trying to tell you something?

- [ominous whoosh] - [ghostly whispering]

There.

[Richter] It stinks.

[Annette] It's her.

It's Sekhmet.

So, what do we do now?

I could burn it,

or we could just hack it into pieces and scatter it to the winds.

- What you do now is give her to me. - [dramatic music plays]

Yes, Alucard.

You killed me.

Now it's my turn.

Alucard couldn't catch her.

We failed, Annette!

[panting]

We failed again.

Fuck!

[Annette] I don't understand.

[ominous music playing]

- [ghostly whispering] - I don't understand.

What do you want me to do?

[eerie music building]

What do you want me to do?!
