Plot
To maintain his powers, the evil wizard Traigon must sacrifice his firstborn child to the god Caligara. After giving birth to twin daughters, Mara and Mira, his wife refuses to tell Traigon which was born first. She flees with the young children and convinces a peasant to raise them as warrior boys; the pursuing Traigon inflicts a mortal wound upon her.
However, she stabs him with a spear and magically banishes him for 20 years before she dies. The wandering hippie-like wizard Krona arrives and also helps defeat Traigon, and gives the infants his magical powers and martial-arts powers. He also tells them to invoke the higher power named "Vital" when they are in trouble.

00:00:50♪
00:01:00♪
00:01:10We have them now! Onward!
00:01:13♪
00:01:21Come on, girl. Come on, get up.
00:01:23♪
00:01:33♪
00:01:36Jatrios, Trigon has found us! Hurry!
00:01:39The house of Krona is not far.
00:01:41If you run now, we could perhaps hold them long enough.
00:01:44Come, lady, hurry up! This way!
00:01:46♪
00:01:51♪
00:02:01♪
00:02:04Careful! Don't hurt the child!
00:02:07Leave me!
00:02:21Trigon! Butcher! The gods will avenge this!
00:02:25Oh, my beloved, even the gods will do as I command.
00:02:29Now, bring me the babe. The father would look upon the firstborn.
00:02:34Ah, beautiful! Calgara will be pleased.
00:02:39No, Trigon! Don't kill my baby!
00:02:42I have promised my firstborn to Calgara.
00:02:45You know the sacrifice is necessary for the greater good of...
00:02:50Spayanora, there are two.
00:02:53Then, which is the firstborn?
00:02:56Yes, which.
00:02:59You have to know, don't you? Because if you're wrong...
00:03:02Don't play with me, woman! I have no time for that!
00:03:05Which is the firstborn?
00:03:07Which is the firstborn?
00:03:09Which is the firstborn?
00:03:11Which is the firstborn?
00:03:13Which is the firstborn?
00:03:15Which is the firstborn?
00:03:17I have no time for that!
00:03:19Which is it? Which?
00:03:30Hoodra! The talent!
00:03:37Tell me quickly, my love, or you'll never produce another such.
00:03:41His father will avenge!
00:03:48Crona! Crona!
00:03:52One word, and it is ended.
00:03:55Beast! Criminal!
00:04:02Crona! Crona!
00:04:05Crona!
00:04:16Crona, this is no affair of yours.
00:04:22Fools! He's not even armed. Kill him!
00:04:35Kill him!
00:04:56Very good, my old friend. Your age has not yet unsteadied your hand.
00:05:00I did not train your men in my arts so that they would hunt down and butcher women.
00:05:05You never could understand the greater values.
00:05:08Tell me, Trigon, which of your three lives am I taking now?
00:05:13Only your first? Or is it the last, finally?
00:05:18You're overconfident, my old friend.
00:05:24Illusion. It's only illusion.
00:05:27You seem unsure.
00:05:30You're weakening.
00:05:32No.
00:05:42Only my first, Crona.
00:05:44When the moon is in the house of the dragon once more, I come again.
00:05:50And then you won't be here to thwart my will.
00:06:00No.
00:06:15Take my babies.
00:06:18Trigon will come again.
00:06:21And again he will seek his firstborn.
00:06:24I will.
00:06:26And they will become great warriors.
00:06:29They will take vengeance.
00:06:31They are girl children.
00:06:39Girl children.
00:06:43Ah, the sport you gods have with us mortals.
00:06:53But never mind.
00:06:56Warriors shall you be, as I have said.
00:07:03From this moment, these two shall be as one and share Crona's powers.
00:07:10I bestow on you the secrets of sorcery and the fighting skills of the masters.
00:07:27Here.
00:07:52Free Crona.
00:07:57What brings you here on such a night?
00:07:59I ask for a great boon, Dargon.
00:08:02Anything, master. We owe you our lives.
00:08:04When the Shatryas came that night...
00:08:07Just care for these girl children, as if they were your own.
00:08:11Of course. You see, I'm so full.
00:08:15I can nurse three as well as one.
00:08:17Good.
00:08:19Dargon, some day men will come.
00:08:23And they will be looking for the two who are one.
00:08:26Of barbarian blood.
00:08:29But they will be looking for girl children.
00:08:32So no one must know they're girls.
00:08:34I will conceal them, free Crona.
00:08:36It shall be as you desire.
00:08:49The Shatryas
00:09:19Shatryas, my loyal servant.
00:09:48For twenty years we have awaited this moment.
00:09:53The moon is in the house of the dragon.
00:09:56And the master will be among us once again.
00:10:01Begin.
00:10:18Master, your loyal servants greet you.
00:10:48Master.
00:10:50Your warriors await your command.
00:10:54Know that each of you who serves me well
00:10:57shall one day rule a nation
00:11:00and command an army such as the world has never seen.
00:11:04All this will be so
00:11:08when I summon Kalgara.
00:11:13And now
00:11:16my first command.
00:11:18The most important.
00:11:20Find the two
00:11:23who are one.
00:11:46Kalgara.
00:12:16What sort of creature is that?
00:12:34I don't know.
00:12:36What's that which he carries there,
00:12:39hanging between his legs?
00:12:41I don't know.
00:12:42Some kind of horn?
00:12:44A weapon then?
00:12:45But how would he use such a weapon?
00:12:47I don't know and I'm not going to wait to find out.
00:13:11Soldiers!
00:13:12Shadrius!
00:13:21Help!
00:13:33A sword, captain!
00:13:59Rebel, you have an illegal weapon.
00:14:02I'm no rebel.
00:14:03Only a simple goatherd.
00:14:05A man has a right to defend his home.
00:14:07Defend from whom?
00:14:09From us?
00:14:10From the law?
00:14:12You're not the law.
00:14:13You're a bandit.
00:14:14A criminal.
00:14:15The punishment for rebels
00:14:18is death.
00:14:24Wait.
00:14:26There is something more important that I seek.
00:14:29You!
00:14:30Save your miserable life, rebel.
00:14:32We seek the two who are one.
00:14:37You speak nonsense, Shadria.
00:14:40No.
00:14:41They are here, the two maidens.
00:14:43You've been hiding them!
00:14:45Give them up!
00:14:46Now!
00:14:47I know nothing of maidens, save my only daughter,
00:14:50whom you must know,
00:14:51since your own men are even now violating her.
00:14:58My baby!
00:15:29Help!
00:15:37Enough!
00:15:39We must find the two who are one.
00:15:44Take their men!
00:15:46In a slow death,
00:15:47do any man who harms them!
00:16:16Kill them!
00:16:26Kill them!
00:16:57Hold there, lads.
00:16:58I salute you.
00:17:02That was a bit of fighting worthy of the gods.
00:17:10I am Baldur of Amarth.
00:17:12Never in all my 56 battles have I seen such skill.
00:17:15You must have learned from a master.
00:17:31No help for them now, lads.
00:17:34Nor for the other.
00:17:36Your family, were they?
00:17:38They were our father and mother and sister.
00:17:42I'm sorry, lads.
00:17:44Patriot Dog was looking for two who are one.
00:17:46I think he found them.
00:17:48Did he not?
00:17:50Yes.
00:17:51We are as one.
00:17:55Will you bury them or give them to the fire?
00:17:58The fire.
00:17:59It is our way.
00:18:12Meera.
00:18:13Mara.
00:18:15Where did you come from?
00:18:16Who are you?
00:18:18It was I who gave you your fighting skills.
00:18:21You gave us?
00:18:22Yes.
00:18:24In this way.
00:18:25Give me each your hand.
00:18:29Thus, my powers pass to you.
00:18:34By Igrisil.
00:18:35This is sorcery.
00:18:36Then you must be Krona.
00:18:40Your father spoke of you.
00:18:42He said you would return one day.
00:18:44Yes, but I was too late.
00:18:48So all the more for you to avenge now.
00:18:52But I don't understand Shri Krona.
00:18:55The one who brought this about, Tragon the Sorcerer, also took the life of your real mother.
00:19:02It was to avenge this and more that I gave you my powers.
00:19:07We will do it, master.
00:19:09We will find this Tragon and kill him.
00:19:12You will face great danger.
00:19:15We are not afraid.
00:19:17The powers of illusion.
00:19:20Illusion?
00:19:22Ordinary weapons.
00:19:24No good.
00:19:26You need the name.
00:19:28The secret name of the Almighty.
00:19:32Are you all right, master?
00:19:33When all seems lost, use the name.
00:19:39Vital.
00:19:41Remember.
00:19:42Vital.
00:19:44Vital.
00:19:56Wait!
00:19:59I go now to my own destiny, to join my friends whose lives were lost because of their promise to me.
00:20:08Vital.
00:20:09Vital.

00:20:16Vital.
00:20:37Now, lads, lay aside your grief and avenge these wrongs.
00:20:41You must find and kill Tragon.
00:20:43I have a quest of my own, so let's join forces and help each other.
00:20:47Let's go together then.
00:20:49Done, my Ragnarok.

00:22:36Vital.
00:22:37He's a crook.
00:22:39He stole from the vicars.
00:22:50They are going to cut his hands off.
00:22:53A thief.
00:22:55He stole sweets from a vicar's child.
00:22:59They say it is Tragan's love.
00:23:01Tragan?
00:23:05Oh!
00:23:07What will he do now?
00:23:13He will become a beggar and probably fare better.
00:23:20Baldar, how can you hope to find your friend here among so many people?
00:23:24I know his ways. In every city there is a kind of street where he is sure to be found.

00:24:33Again! I see the barbarian wins another!
00:24:37Who'll take that bet?
00:24:45Serpents! Two serpents!
00:24:49Serpents! Two serpents!
00:24:53Impossible! It couldn't happen again.
00:24:57He's won three in a row!
00:25:01The barbarian must lose this one.
00:25:05Well, barbarian, will you call the serpents again?
00:25:11I will.
00:25:13Serpents!
00:25:20How is it possible that a goddess of fortune smiles so long at a barbarian?
00:25:25Sorcery. Black magic.
00:25:32You beautiful man I like.
00:25:36I bring you good fortune. You win much more.
00:25:42I've got enough already, thanks.
00:25:45Why do you throw yourself at this barbarian, dog?
00:25:48Dog, I said. And son of a she-dog.
00:25:56Don't dogs have ears, barbarian?
00:25:59Don't they speak?
00:26:01We have ears.
00:26:03And we speak.
00:26:05Arf! Arf!
00:26:07So he mocks you, Hattor.
00:26:15Dogs.
00:26:18I'm sorry.
00:26:20Did you fall?
00:26:24Come on! Let's go!
00:26:30Arf! Arf!
00:26:33Arf!
00:26:42Arf!
00:26:44It's early. I knew it.
00:26:55Excuse me.
00:26:59Enjoy yourself.
00:27:29Arf!
00:28:00Arf!
00:28:03Arf!
00:28:18Soldiers! The Shatrios!
00:28:22Erlich, my friends. The soldiers mustn't find them.
00:28:25Friends?
00:28:26Yeah.
00:28:27Right. This way.
00:28:28Hurry! Quickly! Quickly!
00:28:31Pando, come on!
00:28:47Yo! What happened here?
00:28:49Barbarians. Four of them.
00:28:52And there were two who were as one.
00:28:55Two? Who are as one?
00:28:57Oh!
00:29:28Arf! Arf!
00:29:48By the gods, I can't tell you apart.
00:29:51I'm Mara.
00:29:52And I'm Mira.
00:29:53And I'm called Erlich.
00:29:55You may wash here. And rest, if you like.
00:29:59How did you find me, Baldar?
00:30:01I followed my nose, boy.
00:30:04No matter. I'm not going back to my father's kingdom.
00:30:07I don't like war and fighting.
00:30:09I want to wander. Live by my whips.
00:30:12Know the taste of strange wines.
00:30:14The lips of exotic maidens.
00:30:18A man called Tragon.
00:30:20Tragon?
00:30:21You know of him? Where is he?
00:30:23Forget it. Tragon is a sorcerer.
00:30:26They say he has magical powers.
00:30:28You're good, but not that good.
00:30:30I am sworn to help them.
00:30:32Oh, no. Not me. I want a peaceful life.
00:30:35Mara, Mira, you'll be safe here until we return.
00:30:39Bolt the door. Don't open for anyone while we're gone.
00:30:44Mara, what do you suppose he meant by surprises in store?
00:30:49I don't know, but there's something about that Erlich.
00:30:53He gives me such a funny feeling, the way he looks at me.
00:31:03Open. I'm a friend. Erlich sent me.
00:31:08Open. I'm a friend. Erlich sent me.
00:31:11Who are you?
00:31:13You must come. Erlich has been taken by Tragon.
00:31:17Tragon?
00:31:21We'll come.
00:31:23Take us to this Tragon.
00:31:25Follow me. Quickly.
00:31:37Follow me.
00:31:39Follow me.
00:32:03So, be they maids or devil cats,
00:32:07we have them now.
00:32:09A gold katar for each of you men.
00:32:12And Tragon's wrath on him lets them escape.
00:32:22You pawned your sword, the son of King Brandwyn, to play dice?
00:32:28But I won, Baldar. I won.
00:32:32Here, polish this for me, will you?
00:32:35About time, I'd say.
00:32:37Hugo, polish this.
00:32:39Here, look at this. I picked it up in Babylonia.
00:32:47What? This is iron. It's too soft to hold an edge.
00:32:51It's a new method. They put it in coals, hammer it out over and over,
00:32:56then plunge it white-hot into cold water.
00:32:59I will show you. Give me that.
00:33:04With metal like this, one man is worth ten of his enemies.
00:33:09Until his enemies have them, too.
00:33:11Oh, you always have some objection to every new idea.
00:33:16Look. Here.
00:33:19What's this stupid beast trying to say?
00:33:22The maids. They're in trouble.
00:33:26I'm sworn to help them. Are you with me, boy?
00:33:48You there. That's enough. Give me my sword.
00:34:18Let's go.
00:34:48You are ready for the test, Princess Delicia.
00:34:52So, these are the two who are one.
00:34:55They possess the magic of some unknown god.
00:34:59Pour this into the fire for the test.
00:35:18Now, one last time.
00:35:21Which of you is the firstborn?
00:35:24We've told you, Doc. We don't know.
00:35:27So, the god Agni shall reveal.
00:35:48Agni!
00:36:19Fire knows the firstborn.
00:36:23Agni has revealed the truth.
00:36:31Bring the slave, Culler.
00:36:48Fire!
00:37:19Agni!
00:37:29Stop them! Move!
00:37:33You'll be expelled for this!
00:37:36Go on! Go on!
00:37:49No!
00:37:59Who knew?
00:38:03The Togmar Baron.
00:38:05Find out who he is.
00:38:08And whence he comes.
00:38:19Baldar. Wait.
00:38:22That's the Forbidden Forest.
00:38:24No one ever comes out of there alive.
00:38:26Good. Maybe the Shatryas will be afraid to follow us.
00:38:30Yes. But let's not count on it.
00:38:49The Forbidden Forest of all places.
00:38:52The planets will not be in conjunction again for months.
00:38:56They'll never even survive that long.
00:38:59We must find them. Now!
00:39:02Suppose I can bring you the one you seek.
00:39:05What would be my reward?
00:39:07I have already promised you the world as your empire.
00:39:10What more could you want?
00:39:12Empires were promised some time ago.
00:39:15But a woman has...
00:39:18other desires, too.
00:39:20I cannot.
00:39:22It would break my vows.
00:39:24So you always say.
00:39:27Yet you intend to break your vows with this other one.
00:39:31And that, a crime against the gods, too.
00:39:34It's not a crime.
00:39:36It's a sacrifice for a far greater good.
00:39:39Who knew?
00:39:41Would you like to help me?
00:39:43Who knew? Would you like to have a reward?
00:39:47I thought so.
00:39:49And if you succeed,
00:39:51you shall have the second of the two who are one,
00:39:54for your own pleasure.
00:40:03Do you want to explain?
00:40:06No, no. You tell them.
00:40:08You're much wiser than I.
00:40:11What are you talking about?
00:40:17Well...
00:40:19Mara...
00:40:21Mira...
00:40:23Do you know where babies come from?
00:40:25We were given to our parents by Krona,
00:40:27the master of martial arts.
00:40:29You know where the baby goats come from, don't you?
00:40:32Of course. But they're animals.
00:40:38What's that?
00:40:39I don't know.
00:40:45What's that sweet smell?
00:40:47It's coming from those fruits.
00:40:49It makes me feel funny.
00:41:09Ha, ha, ha!
00:41:39Ha, ha, ha!
00:41:51Here are the two barbarians, master.
00:41:53At last.
00:41:55Oh, Mara.
00:42:00How lovely you look,
00:42:02even in those goat herd's clothes.
00:42:05Who are you?
00:42:07I am Tragon.
00:42:10You! Tragon!
00:42:12You murdered my mother!
00:42:14Is that what these barbarian dogs have told you?
00:42:17You deny it?
00:42:19Listen, my child.
00:42:21I am your father.
00:42:23My father?
00:42:26Then why?
00:42:28When I explain everything to you, you will understand.
00:42:30But for now, know that you are home,
00:42:33where you belong after all these years.
00:42:35And you will be treated as the royal princess that you are.
00:42:41Take her to her chambers.
00:42:46Wait!
00:42:48If this be true as you say,
00:42:50then I have one request.
00:42:53This man must be treated with honor and respect,
00:42:56for he is my friend.
00:42:58If he has helped you, my child,
00:43:01he will be treated as he deserves.
00:43:05Ishvara will be with you, Ehrlich.
00:43:08I know he will.
00:43:13Tragon.
00:43:15About the tall barbarian.
00:43:17What?
00:43:18Yes. The barbarian, master.
00:43:20We found these on his person.
00:43:22What is that? Dice?
00:43:24Yes, master. They are weighted.
00:43:26Look.
00:43:36I see.
00:43:38Well done, Krakenon.
00:43:40Barbarian, know that the penalty for cheating in the games is
00:43:44death by impalement.
00:43:47Death is only death, swine!
00:43:53Enough!
00:43:55Take him away.
00:44:01You're too quick to anger, Krakenon.
00:44:03I'll sharpen the stake myself.
00:44:27Hey, wait a second.
00:44:29Let's talk about this.
00:44:30Hey, Tragon!
00:44:32I enjoy this young man,
00:44:34but it's necessary to set an example.
00:44:37Hey now, Tragon.
00:44:39I'm sorry if I said anything untoward a while ago.
00:44:42Look, man to man now.
00:44:45Let me die on my feet, like a warrior.
00:44:48Why, dog?
00:44:50Death is only death, you said.
00:44:52I'm sorry.
00:44:54I take it back.
00:44:56You made your point.
00:44:58You don't have to stick it to me.
00:45:02Stop!
00:45:18Stop!
00:45:20Hold!
00:45:21What have you there?
00:45:22This medallion from the house of Armag.
00:45:25Armag?
00:45:27Let me see that.
00:45:29Tragon, where did you get this?
00:45:32Why, it was given to me by my mother as a child.
00:45:36He's of the ancient blood of Armag.
00:45:38If it is true, it would make the sacrifice perfect.
00:45:42Yes, and the maiden's body
00:45:45then could carry the seed of one of the noble ancient blood.
00:45:49Yes, Armag. That's me.
00:45:51My father's house, right.
00:45:53Now, how about getting me down before these fellows...
00:45:56Slimp!
00:45:59Yes.
00:46:01Have him released, Krakenon.
00:46:05Keep the stake in place
00:46:07till after the sacrifice.
00:46:23We'll never get across that.
00:46:25We won't have to. We have to go this way.
00:46:28I see a village.
00:46:32A kind of castle.
00:46:35Or temple.
00:46:39You see?
00:46:41What do you mean, see?
00:46:43It's always been this way between Mara and me.
00:46:45We see what the other is seeing
00:46:47and we feel what the other is feeling.
00:46:49And now you see what?
00:46:51A temple.
00:46:53On a hill.
00:46:54It's this way.
00:47:06Soma, nectar of the gods.
00:47:10You see the moonbeam here?
00:47:12Tomorrow night, it will traverse this mark.
00:47:15Here.
00:47:17That shall be the moment.
00:47:19A new age will begin on Earth
00:47:21and you will be its first avatar.
00:47:24A goddess to be honored for ages to come.
00:47:27Oh, father.
00:47:29All this talk of the world's great powers.
00:47:32My mind is spinning.
00:47:34You will understand everything later.
00:47:36But for now,
00:47:38trust me, my child.
00:47:41Trust me.
00:47:44Trust me.
00:47:46All will be well.
00:47:49I... I do.
00:47:51You know what is best for me.
00:47:53For everyone.
00:47:55Yes.
00:47:57For all my children.
00:47:59Now,
00:48:01go to your chambers.
00:48:03Your friend will come to you soon.
00:48:05He as well.
00:48:07As you asked.
00:48:09Erlik.
00:48:10Thank you, father.
00:48:19You see, Kel'gora,
00:48:21as I promised you long ago,
00:48:23you shall have Tragon's firstborn.
00:48:39Do you like the Soma?
00:48:41It's great. What is it?
00:48:43Soma is the nectar of the gods.
00:48:46A secret handed down
00:48:48from times long past.
00:48:53From the Golden Age.
00:48:56Oh, yes. That Golden Age
00:48:58that Tragon says he wants to bring back.
00:49:01With himself and power, of course.
00:49:03I'm bored with Tragon and his magic.
00:49:06I don't want to rule the world.
00:49:08Not with him.
00:49:11I understand. Go on.
00:49:14I want a man.
00:49:16A real man beside me
00:49:18who can wrest the great power from Tragon
00:49:22and dispose of him.
00:49:24But first,
00:49:26the sacrifice must take place as planned.
00:49:29You'll make love to Mara.
00:49:31Then you must sacrifice her.
00:49:35She waits for you.
00:49:38Even now.
00:49:40Go to her, Erlik.
00:49:43Then, later,
00:49:46the world will be ours.
00:49:49We are destined to rule together, Erlik.
00:50:09As I told you, Tragon,
00:50:11I have wet clay in my hands.
00:50:14The typical simple mind of the barbarian.
00:50:18Don't be so modest.
00:50:20You were very persuasive.
00:50:23I might have believed you myself.
00:50:25The important thing
00:50:27is that he will do as we wish.
00:50:30Yes.
00:50:33That is so.
00:50:38Erlik.
00:50:42I thought the soldiers might have treated you unkindly.
00:50:45Well, for a while there was a rather sharp dispute.
00:50:51But now,
00:50:54for some reason,
00:50:57is this really you?
00:50:59You've suddenly become a woman.
00:51:01Why do you look at me like that?
00:51:03You really don't know?
00:51:05Has it to do with this feeling I...
00:51:08Get in my loins when I touch you?
00:51:11Oh, I feel there's some secret to this.
00:51:13Some wonderful secret.
00:51:15And you have the key to it.
00:51:39Oh!
00:51:41Child, what is it?
00:51:43A snake? What do you see?
00:51:45I don't know. I...
00:51:47I feel kind of strange.
00:51:56Where is the pain, child?
00:51:59It doesn't hurt. It...
00:52:02It...
00:52:07I feel so hot.
00:52:10Oh, it's...
00:52:12It's Mara.
00:52:13Mara?
00:52:15Is she being tortured?
00:52:18I don't know.
00:52:20I...
00:52:29No.
00:52:31She's not being tortured.
00:52:37By the horns of...
00:52:41Never mind.
00:52:43She's obviously in good hands.
00:52:45But who?
00:52:48It must be Ehrlich.
00:52:57Yes, that would be Ehrlich.
00:53:00That amorous pup.
00:53:08Oh, no. Not again.
00:53:15Now I know it's Ehrlich.
00:53:23Hold there.
00:53:26Stay away from her.
00:53:28You're my protection.
00:53:47Let me know if you find a cold river.
00:53:58Caligara, Caligara,
00:54:01Maya, Maya,
00:54:04Caligara, Maya,
00:54:07No, Caligara...
00:54:13Frindaban.
00:54:14Huh? What's that?
00:54:16Frindaban.
00:54:18I've heard tales of that land since I can remember.
00:54:22It was once the center of the world, so they say.
00:54:25Hmm. Long, long ago.
00:54:28Judging from the looks of the place now.
00:54:31She's there, Mara.
00:54:34A lot of soldiers up there.
00:54:37We have to go in under cover of night.
00:54:41Ishvara will show us the way.
00:54:52And now what do you see, Mara?
00:54:55I see...
00:54:58a valley.
00:55:01A village.
00:55:05And a temple.
00:55:08She's coming here.
00:55:10They are coming here?
00:55:15Your barbarian friend is a fool, after all.
00:55:20Not foolish. Fearless.
00:55:23And he doesn't understand.
00:55:25Doesn't know about the sacrifice.
00:55:28He will try to interfere.
00:55:30Unless you speak with him.
00:55:32Then he can be useful to us.
00:55:35And she also.
00:55:41Oh no, my faithful.
00:55:44You shall have your reward after all.
00:56:24So a trap, is it?
00:56:28All the more of these dogs to taste my blade!
00:56:32Come on!
00:56:33Who will be the first to die?
00:56:35I am ready for you!
00:56:37Well?
00:56:44I am ready for you!
00:56:46I am ready for you!
00:56:48I am ready for you!
00:56:50I am ready for you!
00:56:54By the fangs of Grudner.
00:56:57They are bewitched!
00:56:59Mara! Look at me!
00:57:04Surrender, barbarian!
00:57:06We have use for you!
00:57:07Never!
00:57:17So, Tragan!
00:57:19Are these the cowards?
00:57:21Are these the cowards?
00:57:23Who will help you to rule the world?
00:57:26Let them face me, man to man!
00:57:29No, barbarian.
00:57:31I shall have an army of warriors of a far different quality.
00:57:35You'll be meeting them soon.
00:57:52So, how easily are the foolish disposed of.
00:57:56Now, prepare for the sacrifice.
00:57:59The planets are approaching their conjunction.
00:58:03He was promised the other maiden, master.
00:58:06He is angry.
00:58:07I am not.
00:58:08I am not.
00:58:10I am not.
00:58:11I am not.
00:58:12I am not.
00:58:13I am not.
00:58:14I am not.
00:58:16I am not.
00:58:17I am not.
00:58:18I am not.
00:58:19I am not.
00:58:20He is angry.
00:58:22Filthy beast!
00:58:23I have no time for your disgusting desires now.
00:58:50I am not.
00:58:51I am not.
00:58:52I am not.
00:58:53I am not.
00:58:54I am not.
00:58:55I am not.
00:58:56I am not.
00:58:57I am not.
00:58:58I am not.
00:58:59I am not.
00:59:00I am not.
00:59:01I am not.
00:59:02I am not.
00:59:03I am not.
00:59:04I am not.
00:59:05I am not.
00:59:06I am not.
00:59:07I am not.
00:59:08I am not.
00:59:09I am not.
00:59:10I am not.
00:59:11I am not.
00:59:12I am not.
00:59:13I am not.
00:59:14I am not.
00:59:15I am not.
00:59:16I am not.
00:59:17I am not.
00:59:18I am not.
00:59:19I am not.
00:59:34Ha ha ha!
00:59:36We have not yet lost, my brave one.
00:59:41We still live.
00:59:45What sort of place is this, Baldar?
00:59:49Catacombs. The burial place of ancient warriors.
00:59:58Ah, this cursed arrow! Myrda, can you do it?
01:00:08The head is barbed.
01:00:19Oh.
01:00:30We'll find a way out of here somehow.
01:00:33Yes. Somehow.
01:00:50Ah.
01:00:55Ah!
01:01:03Ah! Ah! Ah!
01:01:19Ah!
01:01:49Bring the sacrificial virgins!
01:02:19Ah!
01:02:47The smell of death.
01:03:17Better wait here while I see what lies ahead.
01:03:47Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!
01:04:03Ah! CAT SCREECHING
01:04:07Ah!
01:04:17I know you're in there!
01:04:47I know you're in there!
01:04:51I know you're in there!
01:04:54I know you're in there!
01:05:18I know you're in there!
01:05:36Kalgara!
01:05:38You shall have, as I promised,
01:05:40my firstborn!
01:05:43Consecrated with the seed of the one
01:05:46of the ancient blood!
01:05:48Give me the great power!
01:06:12I know you're in there!
01:06:42I know you're in there!
01:07:12I know you're in there!
01:07:26What are they?
01:07:27Sorcery! Illusion!
01:07:32They can't be real!
01:07:35They're real enough, Baldar!
01:07:43Back!
01:08:09Now, my love,
01:08:11quickly!
01:08:41When all seems lost,
01:08:43use the name!
01:08:45Vital!
01:08:46Vital!
01:08:51Vital!
01:08:52Vital!
01:09:12Vital!
01:09:16Vital!
01:09:17What are you doing?
01:09:22Strike!
01:09:23Now!
01:09:27No!
01:09:28You'll ruin everything!
01:09:29Stop them!
01:09:41No!
01:09:44No!
01:09:49No!
01:09:58No!
01:10:02No!
01:10:04No!
01:10:05No!
01:10:20I give you another,
01:10:22almighty one!
01:10:24A princess!
01:10:28Never again!
01:10:30Now, Kaga!
01:11:01No!
01:11:19Arise, my warriors!
01:11:21Arise!
01:11:30Arise!
01:11:36Alex!
01:11:37Mara!
01:12:01Kaga!
01:12:12Mara!
01:12:18Arise!
01:12:20Arise!
01:12:30No!
01:13:01No!
01:13:14Let me go!
01:13:16Let me go!
01:13:17Let me go!
01:13:18No!
01:13:28No!
