00:18:24You have to leave them something or they will eat you while you sleep
00:18:30Anytime an animal kills a person
00:18:32The gods turn the animal into a little child and the child has to roam the forest forever
00:18:37every night
00:18:38forever and ever
00:18:40They are probably watching you right now
00:18:49I
00:19:00Children must be getting very hungry. I'll leave them my share
00:19:18Oh
00:19:49No
00:19:56One who rides for the kingdom rides through here we ride against it you fool
00:20:04Haven't you got enough sense to find out who your friends are before you try to kill them

00:20:15We'll be on our way wait if you raise the sword against Erica you fight for us
00:20:21If you can make our journey easier

00:20:25We fight only for our own quest
00:20:30There is only one who can pass safely between here and the city I'll take you
00:20:37I
00:20:44Was a little girl I told my father I was gonna go out and kill a bear then I saw how big the bear was
00:20:53For two weeks after that I
00:20:56Didn't leave the village. We are not little girls anymore. There are no little girls anymore
00:21:07Let's go

00:23:54She's made it through again
00:24:01I
00:24:11Am fine, I think we'll have to keep you here for a while. Our lives are worth less every day
00:24:18What do they want?
00:24:21Their people are prisoners they want to free them
00:24:27They're brave and strong
00:24:32We haven't traveled all this way to be turned back I

00:24:43We honor your cause but our battle can't wait
00:24:51Come with me
00:24:53My
00:24:58Father's very careful about everything just the way he is here. This is for you

00:27:18I
00:27:20I
00:27:44Amethyst said to stay out of sight until they come back
00:27:50Oh
00:28:11He's a beautiful dress for you, come on buy it come on
00:28:20Oh
00:28:36Nobody buys
00:28:50You
00:29:05How do we get word to them some places are very hard and some places are impossible
00:29:20See your future
00:29:22Look at it
00:29:27Tanyara have you seen Tara miss anywhere? No, I thought you were watching. I'm worried. She was gone. Come on. We've got a hurry
00:29:37Hey
00:29:40She's blind Oh
00:29:50I
00:30:20Oh
00:30:27Who are you what are you prowling around after?
00:30:37Why don't we find a use for this yeah, you wouldn't want to give them something we weren't sure they would like
00:30:50Oh, I'm gonna have you went first last
00:31:11Found all gone maybe the others now you find your sister she got away
00:31:16You go back to your father you can't afford to lose his bravest warrior go on
00:31:47I
00:31:50Nobody enters the palace without permission, but I want to go with him move along. All right
00:31:57She wants to go with you my lord
00:32:01Bring her in then
00:32:05Clean her up first
00:32:13You can't go in after
00:32:17Can't go in there. I can't get to Argonne
00:32:25Can't do something about this
00:32:46Oh
00:33:16I
00:33:23Hope he wasn't a close relative I
00:33:27Don't know who he is. Come calm. There aren't enough of you rebels to pretend that you don't know one another and
00:33:35if you hold your tongue as
00:33:38He held his
00:33:39You'll soon be where you can talk to him again
00:33:44I'm no rebel
00:33:47I
00:33:52See there is nothing I can tell you I want to know where your people are where he is
00:34:04My people
00:34:08You know pain is a wonderful thing
00:34:11It will let us know when there could be something wrong and let us know when we should tell what we know
00:34:22You're much too beautiful a girl to let yourself be broken into food for the royal dogs
00:34:41Oh, yeah, what's the matter they got caught which of them all of them
00:34:47So you see we took their cause as if they were ours and now their capture could be our own
00:34:53We've got to do something, but they were the only ones who could fight you said what more can we do now?
00:34:58We can't let them die
00:34:59We can only go back to the plan we had and hope they haven't told our Akura
00:35:03I
00:35:06Think
00:35:08Perhaps this was the only way they had of showing us that some things are worth dying for we can't let them die
00:35:15You stay here
00:35:18Perhaps you can't quite see the truth. Perhaps we ought to give you a little more light
00:35:28Rebels make life difficult for people who obey the laws
00:35:33You'd be performing a service if you told me where they are hiding
00:35:40You do want life to be pleasant for our citizens, don't you she'll talk she'd better
00:35:51You'll tell us everything
00:36:04You
00:36:11Well, well they told me you were very beautiful
00:36:17My warriors always seem to have trouble with beautiful women
00:36:24One way
00:36:27or another
00:36:29If you've come to kill me then just kill me I don't need to listen to you talk
00:36:36To kill a woman like you
00:36:40Would be such a waste
00:36:46Come come down
00:36:48Let
00:36:57Me see you with your clothes off
00:37:05You're going to learn eventually
00:37:10That it's much less painful to do things my way
00:37:16You and your rebel friends
00:37:19I have no rebel friends. Oh, then it's time you started being more agreeable
00:37:28Close off I
00:37:32Will never understand why some people are so adamant about choosing the wrong side
00:37:39No, you never will. I
00:37:42Am losing my patience and I never had very much to begin with
00:37:52When I command you to strip your garment off you do as you are told
00:38:08There are some people in this world will never be your slave
00:38:12Before I am through with you
00:38:15you will beg to kiss my feet and
00:38:19You will tell me why you came here and you tell me where you rebels are
00:38:27and who they are and
00:38:29you'll stay at my side and
00:38:33Watch them die
00:38:36You know where to take her
00:38:42I
00:38:44Am NOT here to torture you
00:38:46We have a man who does that and I'm trying to keep you from having to meet him. I
00:38:55Just want a little information other lives are more important than mine
00:39:03It's not death you face it's a great deal of discomfort while you're still alive
00:39:09You really don't want to get sent downstairs
00:39:14Believe me
00:39:17Life can be quite pleasant here. Really. Why don't you take a moment to think about it?
00:39:38I
00:40:08I
00:40:17Will you tell me now
00:40:27You fool
00:40:39Rebels
00:40:41Perhaps one day we'll send you out to deal with them. We're going to have problems enough with these
00:40:51They may be peasants, but they've got the smell of rebels
00:40:55Some of them are warriors
00:40:57It's your job to watch them
00:41:00I
00:41:06Watching is not enough. We need to listen
00:41:09We need a man among them to be our ears when they speak their secrets. It can't hurt. I
00:41:16Can recruit one of the gladiators? I'm sure
00:41:19But it may cost the cost doesn't worry me
00:41:24You find a man that's ready to name his price
00:41:27Understand I will
00:41:58I
00:42:25Haven't seen you here before
00:42:28No
00:42:29well
00:42:30We ought to get to
00:42:32Know each other. I just want a little something to eat. Okay, let's find a quiet corner
00:42:50Fine
00:42:58I
00:43:01Do get in here
00:43:02Is there anyone else we came with Amethya all three of us? I'm with there. How did she she's in the city?
00:43:10We came here to rescue you. I can't believe she survived
00:43:15She's with some people they're rebels they're trying to fight Erica
00:43:20But they're just not an army if an army is all they lack that we can give them one
00:43:28If you can tear them away from wine and women long enough to fight
00:43:32There are cares women and it's our cares wine. If these men see a chance to win their freedom, they'll fight
00:43:43I've heard some whispering among the gladiators. They talk about you. They talk about rebellion
00:43:52No rebellion has ever succeeded against Lord our occur
00:43:58a
00:44:00Man would be a fool to choose the side that can't win. I'm a slave
00:44:05Slaves have choices to make if they are smart. I want to know what the gladiators are planning
00:44:11I'm going to miss my dinner
00:44:13We all turn on our friends
00:44:17The smart ones get paid for it
00:44:21Decent food fit for a member of the palace guard
00:44:25Women as you like gold great service earns great rewards
00:44:32Yes
00:44:43I wish they would just go home. I wish we could I
00:44:49Remember when I was a little girl still are a little girl
00:44:54And we lived out there
00:44:56And we used to come to the city for things we needed
00:45:00And we'd go back
00:45:02Remember how it felt when I would see our village again. These are different times Daria have to adjust to the times you live
00:45:10When you get older you'll understand
00:45:13When I am older, I will remember that we let this time pass by
00:45:17I'm a fierce our only chance
00:45:19We are all that's left of our people that is a responsibility we have to help her father
00:45:26You think it right to put our future in her hands?
00:45:29She will fight for us
00:45:31I've never been good at following when I was younger. I had dreams just like you like her. I
00:45:38Should say yes, then before I get much older
00:45:43I
00:45:45Should say yes, then before I get much older and the dreams are gone even pass remembering
00:45:54We were brave once
00:45:56We were warriors
00:45:58Now the time is approaching
00:46:01When we will fight again
00:46:08Where have I seen you before
00:46:15Ah, you were the girl at the river outpost
00:46:22That was a night to remember
00:46:27Can I stay here with you? Oh my child

00:47:25If it hurts you have only yourself to blame
00:47:30Every time you move machine is tight
00:47:34So you don't want to move any more than you have to I made this all myself
