00:08ARROWS! COVER HIS MAJESTY!
00:10ARROWS! COVER HIS MAJESTY!
00:23Your servant has wronged you.
00:26Let me die at your feet.
00:29Send her to the inner palace. Best healers, she must live.
00:36Smithmark.
00:38Royal Guard Armory, Third Bay.
00:41The very forge that arms her own chamber guard.
00:46She had her own men shoot her, just to crawl back to my father's side.
00:51She wants in by sundown so she can strike at moonrise fine.
00:54Let her in. They will go down tomorrow night together.
01:10Sire, before this wreath touches her brow, let your servant speak.
01:15The princess is not of royal of royal blood.
01:19The late queen in the year of her death kept a knight in her bedchamber.
01:25The princess is his daughter, not the king's.
01:29By the old law, sacred water trial. Let the water judge.
01:33If she is of his blood, let her wear the crown.
01:35If she is not, strip her of the title before the wreath.
01:38By all means, let the water judge.
01:54Sire, the true high priest, locked in the back vault since dawn.
01:58The water in that bowl was switched at fifth hour.
02:01The real holy water is here.
02:20By blood and by water, the princess is the king's true daughter.
02:24So it is. So it has always been.
02:29Your majesty, I am pregnant.
02:32I did all this for the child in my womb.
02:35Spare me, for the sake of the child.
02:37I am a child.
02:53Four months.
02:57Mireille, wait!
03:01Let us raise our glasses.
03:07To a new era of prosperity.
03:13The truth will be revealed.
03:21Take her down.
03:24Now!
03:40Let's begin.
03:45To Valentia, that her waters never run dry and her crown never falls.
03:56And to Umbria, 20 years patient. Tonight, she takes her funeral back.
04:15To be continued...
04:27Old man, sit down. The throne has a new master tonight.
04:37No!
04:43Your Majesty!
04:49Come, Princess.
04:52Show me...
04:53How long your little water magic can hold.
05:00Until the moon is round.
05:02And not a breath longer than that.
05:04In front of all.
05:16No!
05:17No!
05:20No!
05:22Oh, my God.
05:52Oh, my God.
06:12Oh, my God.
06:29Oh, my God.
07:00Oh, my God.
07:25Tristan, your father was killed, but not by Volantia.
07:31He was killed in Umberia's own civil war.
07:34The faction that murdered him was the very faction your grandfather had borrowed Volantia's hand to execute as rebels.
07:41And on the night your father lay dying, he gave you, his only son, into the keeping of Volantia.
07:49The very palace you came to bury is the palace that has kept you alive these 20 years.
07:55You lie.

08:35blade was Volantia's.

08:39I brought you, I brought you, I brought you, I brought you home like a stray hound.
08:42I kept you fed, tame, useful, for tonight, tonight you tear this throne down with your own hands.
08:49And tomorrow, my house climbs back onto the seat my grandfather lost a hundred years ago.

13:28of the kingdom of Volantia, Queen Ellara.
13:41By the will of my father, by the blood of my mother, by the people of Volantia, I take
13:48this crown, and with it, I take three things.
13:52First, the reign begins under the era name Watermoon.
13:55The frozen exile lands in the north opened, light offenders, pardoned, brought home.
14:02Second, every levy a noble palace has rinked from the common folk these seven dry years,
14:06struck from the books, returned, in coin, before next move.
14:12Third, by my hand, Lynette, keeper of the royal seal, Alden, captain of the realm's knights,
14:20and Tristan, stripped of station for life, bound to this palace, to atone with his hands
14:25until the day his service is judged enough.
14:27By her majesty's will.
14:59three and their father, both
14:59because the
15:06My daughter, if your eyes find this letter, then everything we hoped you would never have
15:13to face, you have already faced, and you are still standing.
15:20The sapphire is not a curse, it is no chain on your throat.
15:26It is the heart of water, passed from queen to queen of Volantia for as long as our blood
15:32has run.
15:35On the day you most need it, it will lend you, all at once, the strength of every soul that
15:42has ever loved you.
16:13I'll carry it well, mother.
16:32Great Major, you are still here.
16:35Always here.
