Can we move this forward? Please? 0:01:17.240 --> 0:01:20.479 There is a witness yet to be heard, hope before 0:01:20.520 --> 0:01:24.880 the smiling eyes of the inquisitor himself. Baracat stand over 0:01:24.959 --> 0:01:30.080 there Aisha Hallamad holiness, the maid servant of the accused. 0:01:30.200 --> 0:01:34.160 As the servant, it's always the ones closest to you. 0:01:34.760 --> 0:01:39.840 Don't be afraid, my dear your master. The accused he 0:01:39.920 --> 0:01:44.440 was an avid reader. Oh yes, he thought about nothing else, Excellency. 0:01:44.680 --> 0:01:48.160 You saw him reading. It was the love of his life. 0:01:48.200 --> 0:01:51.160 Your honor. I used to pray for the unborn child. 0:01:51.200 --> 0:01:55.440 Of course, his daughter is pregnant by some foreigner. Though 0:01:55.480 --> 0:02:00.920 he's disappeared. Where is this daughter? I wonder you tried 0:02:00.960 --> 0:02:05.200 to flee the city. God prevented it. Good season, and 0:02:05.320 --> 0:02:13.160 bless his name, he brought them to justice here guilty. 0:02:13.400 --> 0:02:33.919 I fear that's teaching them. Hey, my father's property. He's 0:02:33.960 --> 0:02:38.239 done nothing wrong. When is he coming home? You can't 0:02:38.320 --> 0:02:46.200 keep him overnight? Again? That's priority priority, that's ponding day 0:02:47.240 --> 0:02:51.760 burn the rest of them, those to the warehouse, Miss 0:02:51.800 --> 0:02:54.800 what are you doing out here? Did you see father? 0:02:55.080 --> 0:02:58.480 I saw him? She certainly did. They're saying such wicked things, 0:02:58.560 --> 0:03:02.200 my baby. That's the same ound of self preservation, betrayal 0:03:02.280 --> 0:03:06.320 and deceit. Have they passed sentence? Come away, miss Aisha? 0:03:06.840 --> 0:03:11.519 What's happened to him? They twisted my words. I didn't stay, 0:03:11.600 --> 0:03:15.400 but they knew you tried to leave, Miss madam. How 0:03:15.919 --> 0:03:21.680 everywhere there's spies. I sha, someone's incriminated him, someone inside 0:03:21.720 --> 0:03:29.080 this house. If you want my advice, look to Hassan. 0:03:29.800 --> 0:03:32.520 He was in the kitchen listening. He's a cook, He's 0:03:32.520 --> 0:03:36.040 always in the kitchen. You trusted him, You favored him 0:03:36.120 --> 0:03:39.000 time and again. That's not true. I told you my 0:03:39.040 --> 0:03:41.440 brother could have done that job. But oh no, your 0:03:41.480 --> 0:03:44.720 father knew better. I'm the stupid one, that's what he said. 0:03:46.080 --> 0:03:49.080 No not the history is not the history. They're not. 0:03:49.120 --> 0:03:54.480 SI gets back in. Now, come away. He didn't do it. 0:03:54.520 --> 0:04:05.520 Please please come, sir. So they said they'd let me 0:04:05.640 --> 0:04:09.560 presents my evidence, sir, gar they assured me away from 0:04:09.600 --> 0:04:15.080 the door. M h. Best you save it for the 0:04:15.200 --> 0:04:19.920 right time. God will hear you. They believe what they 0:04:19.960 --> 0:04:23.359 say or think they do. Fear can turn even the 0:04:23.400 --> 0:04:29.440 bravest into babbling children. What are you here for? What 0:04:29.520 --> 0:04:34.000 did you do? All? Goold? We were the hoarse of 0:04:34.000 --> 0:04:37.080 the vine, sir, the harlots of the vineyard, and here 0:04:37.120 --> 0:04:43.440 we are rounded up. Thank God, bless his name. When 0:04:43.480 --> 0:04:46.400 you say you round it off, I searched the officer 0:04:46.480 --> 0:04:50.240 of the court. Thank you, sir. I said, I was 0:04:50.279 --> 0:04:54.680 a teacher. I was teaching children, but turning them from 0:04:54.720 --> 0:05:00.960 the faith. I am cured now, Praise God. Have they 0:05:01.000 --> 0:05:05.279 blinded you? Yes? And it is a good darkness. I 0:05:05.400 --> 0:05:11.120 never thought of pain as joy, darkness as light. This 0:05:11.279 --> 0:05:15.720 is the real hospital, my friend. Take the medicine for a 0:05:15.680 --> 0:05:18.560 a week on them. I've asked for one hundred lashes 0:05:18.600 --> 0:05:22.279 before they hang me. They said fifty, So I said no, Brother, 0:05:22.640 --> 0:05:29.000 blame me. God bless his name, your hand. I wear 0:05:29.080 --> 0:05:35.080 it around my neck. Come for me, God, let me pay. 0:05:35.360 --> 0:05:40.920 We are ready, Come for my God, let me pay. 0:05:41.920 --> 0:05:47.200 I'm innocent, he says, he's innocent. I have a family. 0:05:48.120 --> 0:05:52.960 The authorities here with the rest an innocent man, I'm 0:05:54.240 --> 0:06:06.320 not possible. I'm innocent. I'm innocent. I'm hencenty. I'm innocent too, 0:06:06.360 --> 0:06:13.040 would be Series two, episode four, Heating the Sick by 0:06:13.120 --> 0:06:20.039 Andy Mulligan. Talk to nobody. You understand, and I'm saying 0:06:20.080 --> 0:06:25.960 that for your own protection. What's the matter. I'm not 0:06:26.080 --> 0:06:28.520 going that way? What do you mean? The gates are 0:06:28.600 --> 0:06:33.359 just that go a different way. You don't have a 0:06:33.400 --> 0:06:37.960 past to you. I can get through the people who 0:06:38.160 --> 0:06:40.920 are smuggled out. You'll be smuggled back in and I 0:06:40.960 --> 0:06:44.120 can't waste time talking about it. Whoever sent you to 0:06:44.200 --> 0:06:46.599 kill me is not good enough. You should come with me, 0:06:46.640 --> 0:06:50.839 man ad No, we all need murderers and assassins. We 0:06:50.839 --> 0:06:54.880 need listen to me. You can help with the cure 0:06:55.040 --> 0:07:07.280 and reconstruction. Goodbye, m I have seen it in every 0:07:07.279 --> 0:07:10.800 place I've been idealistic children. I am not a child, 0:07:11.680 --> 0:07:15.679 not anymore. I have passed their severed headsmanner, dead eyes 0:07:15.720 --> 0:07:20.440 don't shine so brightly, not as bright as yours. I 0:07:20.520 --> 0:07:24.600 have to go read the word about the disease, about 0:07:24.640 --> 0:07:26.960 what you've seen, and they will assume you're tainted. That 0:07:27.160 --> 0:07:29.240 is the superstition, and you'll be killed like a rat. 0:07:34.160 --> 0:07:51.160 You will need me. Yeah, turn her one thing. There's 0:07:51.160 --> 0:07:59.040 no shortage off. Now hold the arm. Corpses can break it, man, 0:07:59.080 --> 0:08:05.440 break it. What strange quest is underway? This is more 0:08:05.480 --> 0:08:10.160 than anatomy. Oh my, my baracount. Please don't touch. But 0:08:10.320 --> 0:08:15.040 there is always beauty. I've learned to see beauty inside 0:08:15.200 --> 0:08:22.119 the body. That is the the ortor the artery needs 0:08:22.160 --> 0:08:29.840 pushing back. Yes, oh she is not fresh or in 0:08:30.600 --> 0:08:33.480 I smelt some. I'm afraid. Well, we burn a hot 0:08:33.520 --> 0:08:37.960 fine dunday. But we can always find more ice for 0:08:38.040 --> 0:08:41.520 this great work. You will receive every conceivable support. You 0:08:41.559 --> 0:08:46.280 know that you're learning from this one. Every investigation yields 0:08:46.320 --> 0:08:50.880 its results. Were moving forward. Ah, you speak with the 0:08:50.960 --> 0:08:58.280 wisdom and patience I have come to admire. Open it. Yes, 0:08:59.040 --> 0:09:04.040 dry your hands and hold under the arm and hold 0:09:04.080 --> 0:09:13.320 the bone. M hm. And you cut with the skill 0:09:13.440 --> 0:09:23.120 that rarely seemed during But this one died when she's 0:09:23.200 --> 0:09:29.840 nine years old. So sickened? Is that the color or excellency. 0:09:30.160 --> 0:09:32.720 I will write my report and we will cross reference. 0:09:34.400 --> 0:09:37.760 We will cross reference. I am the impatient one, and 0:09:37.760 --> 0:09:40.880 I defer to your judgment. I must leave you. I 0:09:40.960 --> 0:09:45.800 have business. Have you enough specimens? We're not short of 0:09:45.880 --> 0:09:49.760 sick children do and that sense God smiles upon us. 0:09:50.840 --> 0:09:59.280 I will await your report. Are redund and of course 0:09:59.280 --> 0:10:04.680 we're not done. Click out the lungs and pack their head. 0:10:06.280 --> 0:10:09.680 I'll do the heart tomorrow. You're you're tired, sir. Like 0:10:09.840 --> 0:10:15.600 more lamps. Get the shutters opened, just just a fraction, 0:10:16.679 --> 0:10:26.280 get some air, yes, askin. That was Baracat. Yes, he 0:10:26.440 --> 0:10:29.960 was consulting me. Close the door, my friend. Dismiss your 0:10:29.960 --> 0:10:32.960 assistant for a moment, and I and I take it. 0:10:33.040 --> 0:10:37.839 The child won't speak, blah blah. You may go. Yes, yes, sir, 0:10:39.520 --> 0:10:45.080 your backs are soon. Thank god, we have urgent business. Doctor. 0:10:45.320 --> 0:10:48.600 What we found was plague a day and a half 0:10:48.640 --> 0:10:52.200 from here. Virulent plague, I would say, arising from the 0:10:52.200 --> 0:10:54.400 filthy water. Though I will defer to you on that 0:10:54.480 --> 0:10:57.480 when you've had a chance to investigate. But listen to this. 0:10:57.880 --> 0:11:00.680 They're lucky. There is a defense that is both practical 0:11:00.760 --> 0:11:04.360 and if we can harness the resources. A village not 0:11:04.520 --> 0:11:11.080 far from Perez. Did you travel alone? What were you alone? 0:11:11.960 --> 0:11:15.000 I had a guide. There was a girl too, lost 0:11:15.040 --> 0:11:18.600 on the road. We let her accompany us. Are you 0:11:18.679 --> 0:11:23.200 wanting verification? What's the matter with you? I know plague 0:11:23.200 --> 0:11:25.760 when I see it, and we must work together or 0:11:25.800 --> 0:11:30.280 the city won't last the winter. Look at this? What 0:11:30.440 --> 0:11:35.960 is that? This is the Anti River, and this is 0:11:35.960 --> 0:11:38.360 where I had the privilege of inspecting some of Emperor 0:11:38.400 --> 0:11:44.600 Moe's irrigation schemes. Look you see that flowing water is 0:11:44.600 --> 0:11:48.200 our first defense. The swamps are stagnant. They need to 0:11:48.240 --> 0:11:50.520 be flushed through, and the only way to do that 0:11:50.640 --> 0:11:53.720 is to repair the great dam. That is what Barracat 0:11:54.000 --> 0:11:58.120 offended read. Everyone must hear the plague must be met 0:11:58.160 --> 0:12:01.880 with immediate force. So you and I must now work together. 0:12:02.240 --> 0:12:07.840 Putting aside this, what is this? You know what it is? 0:12:08.000 --> 0:12:10.640 It's the section. I can see it's the section. But 0:12:10.760 --> 0:12:16.360 that is crude. What exactly are you looking for? Where's 0:12:16.360 --> 0:12:22.280 the slave girl. Now what the slave girl you traveled with? 0:12:23.800 --> 0:12:30.160 Did I call her a slave? Yes? I'm not sure 0:12:30.200 --> 0:12:33.920 what she was? So where did you go? Why do 0:12:33.960 --> 0:12:38.080 you care? Look, she's not infected. If that's what you're 0:12:38.080 --> 0:12:46.680 worried about. What's the matter, Just that I'm relieved to 0:12:46.720 --> 0:12:59.920 see you. I need to go to the palace. Okay, 0:13:13.360 --> 0:13:29.280 h M, Peace be with you, all three still in 0:13:29.360 --> 0:13:43.720 leaf h Pleas be with you, Peace be with you. 0:13:43.920 --> 0:13:45.719 Peace be with you. Peace be with you. Pleas to 0:13:45.760 --> 0:13:49.040 be with all of us storing you hate to see 0:13:49.040 --> 0:13:54.960 his Majesty, This will don she's back? Who's back? The girl? 0:13:55.160 --> 0:14:00.640 A meddling mad woman, that babbling succubus, the regimes pet expert. 0:14:02.160 --> 0:14:06.040 She knows too much and she can't shut up. We'll 0:14:06.040 --> 0:14:07.920 all have our throats cut if we can't stop her 0:14:07.920 --> 0:14:12.280 tongue wagging. Her throat was cut, surely, I've just been 0:14:12.280 --> 0:14:14.560 conversing with her, and she did pretty well if her 0:14:14.559 --> 0:14:19.160 throat was cut. So what the hell happened to? What? 0:14:19.160 --> 0:14:23.120 What's her name? Because Minnell, we said, are so called 0:14:23.200 --> 0:14:29.000 most reliable of untried assassins. She was brief and primed. 0:14:29.600 --> 0:14:33.080 She was ready for this, so she claimed, well, nothing happened, 0:14:33.520 --> 0:14:35.600 except she seems to have had a long conversation with 0:14:35.640 --> 0:14:38.120 the very person she was supposed to have killed. I 0:14:38.120 --> 0:14:40.880 will look into this immediately. When we move on her target, 0:14:40.920 --> 0:14:45.080 we do not miss the knife strikes. The knife is out, 0:14:45.200 --> 0:14:50.400 and the knife strikes to find the girl. If she's turned, 0:14:50.520 --> 0:14:55.440 that's not possible. What does she know about our network? Nothing? 0:14:55.560 --> 0:14:59.680 She knows nothing? Does she know about me? Does she know? 0:14:59.760 --> 0:15:06.720 I'm out of this incompetent bunch of clarent Oh God, 0:15:07.640 --> 0:15:11.040 just have to be patient. And if this doctor, she 0:15:11.160 --> 0:15:17.640 voices any suspicion, you deny everything. You're perfectly placed, your 0:15:17.640 --> 0:15:22.600 barracats man. Doctor. Nobody's closer. So why do you expose 0:15:22.680 --> 0:15:26.360 me like this? Because we're at war, Risks need to 0:15:26.400 --> 0:15:29.400 be taken. I thrust mammile with my life, and it 0:15:29.440 --> 0:15:31.760 looks like you've trusted her with mine, which I won't 0:15:31.760 --> 0:15:35.000 forgive you for stop this. We have work to do 0:15:35.120 --> 0:15:41.360 and we need we need a full investigation. Now, how patient, 0:15:41.440 --> 0:15:45.640 doctor Doren? While you're here? Is he down here still? 0:15:46.800 --> 0:15:48.920 He needs fresh air? I told you that we couldn't 0:15:48.960 --> 0:15:51.920 bring him up. His screams were audible above ground. Doctor. 0:15:52.400 --> 0:15:56.120 We've had to restrain him. You keep him awake, and 0:15:56.240 --> 0:16:00.400 you talk to him. We are doing that. Let me 0:16:00.440 --> 0:16:12.480 see this way here? Whoa I've got? You got blood 0:16:12.520 --> 0:16:15.760 on your shoes? Is that blood? I came straight here? 0:16:15.880 --> 0:16:20.000 It's my work is rather different to yours at the moment. 0:16:20.200 --> 0:16:24.240 What do you mean I'm dealing with corpses? You seem 0:16:24.280 --> 0:16:31.080 unable to kill. I'll leave you here, doctor, and I 0:16:31.080 --> 0:16:47.160 will find out what happened. H sit him up, and 0:16:47.400 --> 0:16:52.640 here he is the hope of two man Bay undergoing purification. 0:16:54.360 --> 0:16:57.720 We moved from one madness to another. Every sick soul 0:16:57.840 --> 0:17:02.480 seems to be craving something full doctor, quiet moments and 0:17:02.520 --> 0:17:06.399 then I thought he did has done off. He won't 0:17:06.400 --> 0:17:09.879 do that. Give him some of this in his water. 0:17:11.119 --> 0:17:14.280 It's a combination of salts and it will stabilize him 0:17:14.440 --> 0:17:19.000 so much longer, sir. Two days he's coming through. But 0:17:19.119 --> 0:17:22.040 look at him. Can't you even wash the man? He 0:17:22.760 --> 0:17:27.399 tried the bite? Sir? Why he needs to know someone 0:17:27.600 --> 0:17:32.000 is tending him, not torturing down. Why do you understand me? 0:17:32.760 --> 0:17:37.920 Why have you worked out? When he's talking to his father, Sir, 0:17:38.480 --> 0:17:44.159 I doubt that it might be the offis they were close. 0:17:47.640 --> 0:17:50.439 Talk to him and get those shackles off. We have 0:17:50.520 --> 0:17:57.679 proper restraints. Don't leave me. This is a future leader 0:17:57.760 --> 0:18:05.040 to be restored and revered. Now do your job, man, 0:18:07.600 --> 0:18:13.000 h But when you have loved, come on, just se 0:18:16.320 --> 0:18:20.400 don't make it worse. When you have loved you see, 0:18:20.960 --> 0:18:24.280 and as a child, that's what they could not do. 0:18:24.960 --> 0:18:29.520 I would not have to allow. Oh no, no weakness only, 0:18:30.080 --> 0:18:39.639 So don't love, don't show affection or touch Daniel? Is 0:18:39.680 --> 0:18:44.680 he here now? Is he coming? I don't know, I 0:18:45.080 --> 0:18:48.520 said to him. Up in the mountains, that's where we 0:18:48.560 --> 0:18:53.800 can live, I said, Daniel, Lord the strong one, Why 0:18:53.880 --> 0:18:58.320 take it all? Huh, you can take your little maddo. 0:18:59.200 --> 0:19:03.320 He's the weak one. I said to him. I've never 0:19:03.840 --> 0:19:07.680 been held. You're not as a child, Nobody would hold 0:19:07.720 --> 0:19:16.000 me or love me. And that's why I well, wait, sir, 0:19:16.720 --> 0:19:21.480 let's go. Sir. You have the same beard as he, 0:19:23.280 --> 0:19:45.160 but you you're not so beautiful? Are you not stopping? 0:19:46.880 --> 0:19:50.879 Because I can't? Is it the same for all of us? 0:19:51.840 --> 0:19:55.560 Some dreams will not let you go. We are three 0:19:55.680 --> 0:20:00.320 years He's there again, little Vassie, wandering into my sleep 0:20:00.320 --> 0:20:02.920 when I least need reminding you is better than two 0:20:03.040 --> 0:20:07.600 per go, I can help you, but you can't. Friend, 0:20:08.040 --> 0:20:10.440 and do you know you can't do? Will die together? 0:20:10.960 --> 0:20:16.520 But with three always someone away can't come? What are 0:20:16.520 --> 0:20:31.920 you doing? Come on? Can't come? What? Please, your excellency, 0:20:40.560 --> 0:20:45.720 I'm under arrest, excellency, No, of course not. Your presence 0:20:45.800 --> 0:20:49.480 is requested and emergency counsel has been called. Your experience 0:20:49.600 --> 0:21:06.920 is deemed essential. Very well, wait, I would urge that 0:21:07.080 --> 0:21:11.760 no decision is made until further expedition with experienced personnelity 0:21:11.840 --> 0:21:19.680 is our esteemed visitor not experienced of course, Gregor, you 0:21:19.840 --> 0:21:23.720 arrive at just the right time as usual, offend, don't 0:21:23.760 --> 0:21:26.920 bother with all that. We have something of a crisis, 0:21:27.080 --> 0:21:30.680 something to consider, you know, our friend, visitor, advisor and 0:21:30.800 --> 0:21:37.480 possibly our savior, Excellency Dr Alkin, she has discovered plague 0:21:38.680 --> 0:21:42.400 where in the outlying villages near the Great Term there 0:21:42.560 --> 0:21:46.040 is some evidence of a disease like those with experience 0:21:46.320 --> 0:21:54.240 describe it. Of course, m hmmm, Sit down, let's everyone's 0:21:54.240 --> 0:21:59.159 sitting back down. You get our regent water. You can 0:21:59.240 --> 0:22:06.760 see he's suffering. You must calm yourself, Excellency. We went 0:22:06.880 --> 0:22:09.639 as far as the village of Darcela, as far as 0:22:09.720 --> 0:22:13.119 we could ascertain all the inhabitants were dead. I have 0:22:13.240 --> 0:22:21.040 seen similar I know the signs. I only say we 0:22:21.160 --> 0:22:25.639 must always be cautious. Just as sin differs, so does 0:22:25.720 --> 0:22:28.800 its natural punishment, its plague, And we need to act. 0:22:30.920 --> 0:22:34.800 The meteor stones landed in the vicinity, did they not? Yes? 0:22:34.920 --> 0:22:40.240 So what signs must be heeded? Perhaps you want to 0:22:40.280 --> 0:22:43.360 cut one open, look for a message, built them into 0:22:43.400 --> 0:22:50.000 an altar, and sacrifice a few children. I do not, 0:22:52.240 --> 0:22:57.280 but the instinctive trust in human intervention must be challenged. No, 0:22:57.760 --> 0:23:01.840 we need to act or the disease will spread. Elkin 0:23:02.680 --> 0:23:07.280 Gregor will make things happen. Show him the map, m M. 0:23:10.560 --> 0:23:14.200 The marshes are here, some distance from the village. I've 0:23:14.240 --> 0:23:17.120 been there, then you will know the site. The dam 0:23:17.359 --> 0:23:20.640 is in poor repair, but with a few hundred workers 0:23:20.880 --> 0:23:23.280 it can be put back to use. Holding back the water. 0:23:24.080 --> 0:23:27.000 We can then sluice the fresh water through the whole area, 0:23:27.320 --> 0:23:30.320 drowning the valley, which will also flush the marshes, exactly, 0:23:30.680 --> 0:23:37.160 expelling the foul water and with it the disease. Excellency, 0:23:38.080 --> 0:23:41.880 you need to rest. I'm perfectly all right. I counseled 0:23:41.960 --> 0:23:45.280 ten days of prayer and fast. I counseled the immediate 0:23:45.359 --> 0:23:49.040 dispatch of our best engineers, who will be supported by 0:23:50.200 --> 0:23:55.200 what kind of number hands slaves? Five hundred slaves that 0:23:55.240 --> 0:24:00.360 are designated for Maya. She must wait it we don't 0:24:00.440 --> 0:24:04.119 drain the marshes, She'll be in receipt of corpses and 0:24:04.240 --> 0:24:06.640 it won't be five hundred BC, it will be five 0:24:06.760 --> 0:24:12.280 hundred thousand. Leave us please, you are responsible for the 0:24:12.359 --> 0:24:17.280 spiritual health of the city. My priority is fighting disease. 0:24:18.800 --> 0:24:36.760 Regent Gregor, dangerous work, Gregor, I need you to put vendy. 0:24:37.040 --> 0:24:40.639 I haven't the skills for a project like this. I'll assist, 0:24:40.720 --> 0:24:43.600 of course, I wear Anyone who goes is exposing themselves 0:24:43.720 --> 0:24:46.520 to infection. I'm not afraid of that. But we need 0:24:46.560 --> 0:24:52.240 a man used to leading men. Yes, your brother, I 0:24:52.480 --> 0:24:55.640 don't think his holiness Baracout will consent to that. It's 0:24:56.240 --> 0:24:59.600 my consent that matters. But my loyalty is to you. 0:25:00.080 --> 0:25:06.560 It's never wavered. Mm hm, doctorr brother. His role will 0:25:06.560 --> 0:25:10.680 be circumscribed and he will be answerable to me. Of course, 0:25:12.440 --> 0:25:16.600 what else am I about to be foolish? We can 0:25:16.640 --> 0:25:19.480 all show weakness, and that's what I'm about to do. 0:25:20.520 --> 0:25:23.639 If any you have to try. If any there is 0:25:23.680 --> 0:25:28.080 another matter I have to bring to your attention, a 0:25:28.200 --> 0:25:33.199 private matter. I will leave you to your private matters, gentlemen, Regent, 0:25:33.960 --> 0:25:42.000 thank you. M hmm. This may be inappropriate and presumptuous 0:25:42.080 --> 0:25:46.639 even but the religious court has convicted a man and 0:25:46.840 --> 0:25:50.639 no great Hibban Bay, a trader who's only crime is 0:25:50.720 --> 0:25:54.080 to have accumulated book. No, it's not my business, and 0:25:54.240 --> 0:25:58.600 you know that. Don't pull me into more conflict with Burga. 0:25:58.760 --> 0:26:03.000 I'm on your side. You think there are sides, We're 0:26:03.040 --> 0:26:06.280 all on the same side, or supposed to be. And 0:26:06.400 --> 0:26:09.680 the service I've just done you, I've just offered your 0:26:09.720 --> 0:26:15.639 brother a chance of life. No more favors. Speak to 0:26:15.760 --> 0:26:44.040 him now, Richard h h h who like the torch? 0:26:47.960 --> 0:26:53.639 Oh you again, right now, little brother, betrayal of this 0:26:53.840 --> 0:27:00.000 tower small or large. I'm here with a proposal. Mhm. 0:27:00.359 --> 0:27:04.920 And now you said you'd protected your daughters alive still 0:27:05.520 --> 0:27:11.879 and playing with fools and fire rather cooln two Monday 0:27:12.040 --> 0:27:14.080 needs you and I have a warrant here if your 0:27:14.119 --> 0:27:29.080 immediate release and Jane him. Can you stand straighter than 0:27:29.160 --> 0:27:32.159 you and there's work to be done. It's dangerous. I 0:27:32.200 --> 0:27:35.120 don't want to disguise that. Oh no, Gregor, you mean 0:27:35.200 --> 0:27:39.480 I might have to risk my life. Yes, that's the 0:27:39.600 --> 0:27:44.199 real difference between us is you're afraid to die, Gregor, 0:27:44.840 --> 0:27:51.000 I've been rather looking forward. He's right again. Why throw 0:27:51.080 --> 0:27:54.560 one's life away for nothing? I will cling to life 0:27:55.440 --> 0:27:59.679 even if I've forgotten. Why get me clean water? Yes, 0:27:59.760 --> 0:28:04.960 your I need to wash my hand. I'll leave you 0:28:05.040 --> 0:28:27.000 to it. What did he say? God? And here he 0:28:27.200 --> 0:28:30.800 is again? Bara, Cat waits for me like a spider. 0:28:31.119 --> 0:28:33.120 I think even the flies report back to you. Don't 0:28:33.160 --> 0:28:37.040 pay barracat, even the rats. He's keen to be of service. 0:28:37.119 --> 0:28:40.600 I trust he's ready to serve. On whose side I 0:28:40.760 --> 0:28:44.800 wonder there are no sides. Then you have done well, excellency. 0:28:45.240 --> 0:28:49.720 You've united us again. What do you mean now? I 0:28:49.800 --> 0:28:51.920 have something special to show you this morning, now that 0:28:52.000 --> 0:29:03.880 the sun's come up, follow me? Please? Can I get 0:29:03.920 --> 0:29:07.440 you anything else? Madam? No? Thank you, Asha, That is all. 0:29:10.120 --> 0:29:12.880 I saw my friend in the market this morning. Yes, 0:29:13.320 --> 0:29:15.640 she knows someone in the palace. She heard they were 0:29:15.720 --> 0:29:17.880 taking men rounded up by the patrols to the old 0:29:18.000 --> 0:29:22.320 army barracks. Someone escaped. Keep always with them. Oh no, 0:29:22.520 --> 0:29:26.440 she didn't have any details, But I thought he's so strong. 0:29:27.160 --> 0:29:32.040 He's a king after all. Don't give up hope, Miss, 0:29:32.920 --> 0:29:35.760 Thank you, Asha and your father will be free soon. 0:29:35.840 --> 0:29:39.600 I know it. You have been a good servant to us. 0:29:40.800 --> 0:29:44.080 I don't know what I would do without you. Miss. 0:29:45.680 --> 0:29:50.600 Perhaps I could take the afternoon off. Why maybe I 0:29:50.640 --> 0:29:58.719 can discover more if I who is it soldiers? By 0:29:58.760 --> 0:30:02.920 the look of it, have they brought him back? Father? 0:30:03.920 --> 0:30:16.040 Is that you open it? Open it? Haven't? Daughter of 0:30:16.120 --> 0:30:19.360 eben Bay, I've been instructed on the authority of the palace. 0:30:19.560 --> 0:30:25.400 Who under the rest? Why? Why are you don't touch me? 0:30:25.600 --> 0:30:29.240 Don't get your hands off. Here's a special appointment. People 0:30:29.320 --> 0:30:54.480 waiting there? You go up the card? Where are we 0:30:54.560 --> 0:30:59.560 going to the university? We work well together, you and I. 0:31:00.040 --> 0:31:03.520 You don't trust me, though, that's not true with respect. 0:31:03.600 --> 0:31:06.640 I wonder if you even trusted your own mother. He 0:31:06.760 --> 0:31:09.200 probably had her under surveillance when she was suckling you. 0:31:09.800 --> 0:31:12.920 My mother died in childbirth. I had to grow up fast. 0:31:13.720 --> 0:31:18.000 You are the lucky ones you and Coolan were. What 0:31:18.120 --> 0:31:20.520 do you know of me and my brother? Are you 0:31:20.680 --> 0:31:26.960 brothers by blood or by association? Go left? Sorry? You 0:31:27.040 --> 0:31:31.360 want our life stories? No? No? But I value both 0:31:31.440 --> 0:31:34.520 of you. You see you have an extraordinary bond, and 0:31:34.680 --> 0:31:39.480 yet such different temperaments. Can we trust him? He is 0:31:39.560 --> 0:31:43.040 my brother. I would trust him with my life, and 0:31:43.240 --> 0:31:47.240 such is the bond of brother I ought to be. 0:31:49.480 --> 0:31:52.840 It's different for me, Gregor. What if you were in 0:31:52.920 --> 0:31:56.160 my position? But then you have the ear of our 0:31:56.240 --> 0:32:00.800 regent to fendi Red, whose wisdom I respect? What is 0:32:00.840 --> 0:32:04.920 he strong? Strong? In what sense? You're clear headed and 0:32:05.000 --> 0:32:08.440 sharp eyed? But strength has to be measured in different ways. 0:32:09.080 --> 0:32:12.920 For example, look at me, a broken reed with a 0:32:13.080 --> 0:32:19.320 twisted leg. I can't march, I can't bear arms, and 0:32:19.400 --> 0:32:23.160 you can usually hear me limping along behind you, dragging 0:32:23.280 --> 0:32:28.920 my foot. But I can control a city. Don't forget that. 0:32:29.920 --> 0:32:36.400 These people, these are God's foot soldiers. When you seek 0:32:36.680 --> 0:32:40.280 the favor of our regions, I serve him. Remember be 0:32:40.440 --> 0:32:42.520 sure to let go when you need to let go. 0:32:43.680 --> 0:32:47.600 When a rock rose downhill, don't stand under Red. You 0:32:47.680 --> 0:32:50.920 think I defied you? No, No, If the plague is 0:32:51.000 --> 0:32:53.560 that close to the city, we have a duty to act. Oh, 0:32:53.800 --> 0:32:59.040 Gregor was right, plague is all around us. I need 0:32:59.120 --> 0:33:02.760 no convincing of that. And if men believe the great 0:33:02.840 --> 0:33:08.440 dam will flush it away, So b it? What if 0:33:08.480 --> 0:33:12.040 our dear Sultan that's more important? Are there still no leads? 0:33:12.760 --> 0:33:16.880 I'm doing my best, as you always do, for yourself, 0:33:17.000 --> 0:33:20.600 and for cool on too, and for two Monday. I 0:33:20.720 --> 0:33:26.240 get so tired of that refrain. Do you believe in magic? 0:33:26.320 --> 0:33:29.360 By the way, m If I see a magician, I 0:33:29.400 --> 0:33:33.360 see a heretic. Yes, your credentials are impeccable. But I 0:33:33.560 --> 0:33:38.880 do believe in the magic of transformation, and that's what 0:33:39.040 --> 0:33:42.400 you're about to witness. Now we're on our way to 0:33:42.480 --> 0:33:46.440 the square. You said, the university. That's what it has 0:33:46.520 --> 0:33:52.560 become for it's where people learn. Let me feel your hand. 0:33:55.400 --> 0:33:59.040 I always judge strength of character by holding a man's hand, 0:34:00.240 --> 0:34:04.680 and yours is hot. Perhaps I'm sick. Please God, don't 0:34:04.680 --> 0:34:08.200 say that, not even in Just let go of me. No, no, no, 0:34:09.200 --> 0:34:12.920 You've done well, is what I'm saying. The capture of 0:34:13.080 --> 0:34:16.640 the foreign spy. I appreciated your ruling. That my duty. 0:34:16.760 --> 0:34:20.759 Only now I mean to repay you. I will show 0:34:20.800 --> 0:34:28.920 you true love and redemption. Yeah, oh, these roots. Everyone 0:34:29.040 --> 0:34:32.000 comes to the hangings. You see, it is a festival, 0:34:32.120 --> 0:34:35.560 not a blood bath. You speak the old language, but 0:34:36.320 --> 0:34:39.440 you are a willing pupil that I know the light 0:34:39.640 --> 0:34:43.200 is in you. In Kolan too, whose wife and daughter 0:34:43.280 --> 0:34:48.480 I here have fled are missing? If they allude even you, 0:34:48.680 --> 0:34:51.759 the former head of the Palace guard, then they must 0:34:51.800 --> 0:34:59.400 be lost. Indeed, but excuse me. Paperwork is fundamental, and 0:34:59.520 --> 0:35:04.319 we have, thank god, a full confession of one. Oh 0:35:04.400 --> 0:35:07.440 he signed it last night, but he will deny it today. 0:35:08.160 --> 0:35:11.960 Who is this Barker? You can't read the name. I 0:35:12.040 --> 0:35:15.360 think his fingers were broken when he signed. But you 0:35:15.480 --> 0:35:22.160 can't read that. Even bay Trader, you were fond of him. 0:35:23.520 --> 0:35:27.960 This is what I like. You get involved with people. 0:35:28.600 --> 0:35:34.840 He's an innocent man. I collect books, excellency, but I 0:35:34.920 --> 0:35:42.160 do not read them. What editions? Ah, look at the 0:35:42.239 --> 0:35:49.280 crowds staporn, picnic stabren scenes and oh you five pieces 0:35:49.400 --> 0:35:52.799 five ripe ones, not those that I know the price, 0:35:52.920 --> 0:36:02.879 my faend push through. Use your whip, sir, we will 0:36:02.920 --> 0:36:06.439 walk from here. I think this is hopeless. You feel 0:36:06.560 --> 0:36:14.000 safe walking? I'm surrounded, Gregor, My protectors are all around us. Mhm. 0:36:14.160 --> 0:36:30.920 Come excuse me, inquisite, pleased to be upon your officer, 0:36:31.440 --> 0:36:34.880
