Horrible.
How did you arrogate
to yourself the role of saviour?
- I was invited.
- Not by me.
I think you're nothing
but a boy... an apprentice.
Have you considered
the consequences of failure?
What failure?
You want the dragon back?
You came here
and toyed with a monster!
Who are you
to risk our people, our villages?
- But your children were dying!
- Only a few.
It is better they die
and from the moment it began,
the dragon was tamed.
- The kingdom has prospered.
- At what price?
You can't make
a shameful peace with dragons.
- You must kill them as I have done.
- The beast is dead?
Yes, it's dead.
We shall see.
Caela... orrida... aperere.
Open up, I say! Caela orrida aperere!
Salve, magister juvenilis.
I studied Latin. Greek, too.
Me apellant Elspeth, filiam Regis.
Filiam Regis? You're his daughter.
Please don't think ill of us.
Father is a wise
and even-handed man. He's...
What happened to you?
Nothing. Just some
of the King's even-handedness.
It... It's better
for everyone this way.
A king must protect his people.
Naturally.
Just as he protects his daughter.
What do you mean by that?
- Are you referring to the lottery?
- You know about the lottery?
I have participated in every
choosing since I came of age.
You don't have to pretend.
Not to me. Not down here.
Everyone knows
the families
with money, royal connections...
You've participated
in a lie. You know it.
- I have to go now.
- You know I'm right.
Vale. Dorme bene.
Horsrik, remove all but one bar.
We'll try it one at a time.
- I, Casiodorus Rex...
- Father...
do some families pay bribes
to stay out of the lottery?
Nonsense.
By the power of this amulet,
justly wielded by my hand
in accordance
with the laws of Urland,
now, lead, be thou gold.
I'm burnt!
Have you ever kept
my name off the lottery list?
What are you suggesting?
Am I not exposed to the same risk
as other men's daughters?
There's been a loose tongue
here somewhere, sire.
- Where did you get such ideas?
- Answer my question.
Please... Don't think
of such things, I beg you.
- Answer me.
- The answer is no.
I mean yes. You are a participant.
We have seen to that.
How could we not?
Yes...
The answer is yes.
- You are lying to me.
- Elspeth!
Stay calm.
Go on.
You little meddler!
Stop him!
Close the gate!
What are you waiting for, idiots?
Stop him!
Tyrian!
In here! So much for your magic.
So much for your sorcery.
Feel that? It's alive.
Listen to me. The moment of our fear
is the hour of our triumph.
This is a sign from God.
