before our master passes judgment.
What has just been said of me is true.
I offer no argument
But they hardly begin to cover
the scope of my true crimes.
Honor requires more than admission,
so I offer a full confession
and the whole truth.
For far too long, I failed to recognize
my own hypocrisy.
I ignored my own cowardice,
conveniently hiding behind a position
of political compromise.
And for what?
and rank that men desire.
So I come before you a condemned man
to injustice.
My shame and regret
is that I failed to do so
before it arrived in my own court.
We supply the armies,
we build the roads,
we employ the nation.
Still, we remain silent
while our coffers are emptied
and our freedoms eroded.
There will be times
where we are powerless to injustice,
but there must never be a time
when we fail to protest.
This man, Gezza Mott,
is a cancer, growing.
And the only proper thing to do
is to cut it out.
You all know what I speak of.
Each one of you has been subjected
to his extortion.
But my words are not in judgment
of my fellow noblemen,
they are a warning.
I urge you to consider
what you are doing,
for we are helping this man
to forge the very chains that bind us.
Which brings me to the confession
of my true crime,
so that I may redeem my honor.
My crime
is only that I failed to kill Gezza Mott
when I had the chance.
We have enjoyed hundreds of years
of peace under my family's rule.
We brought order where there was chaos,
but war and bloodshed.
My subjects accept their roles,
content in the knowledge
If you think your words will move
your fellow noblemen to dissent,
then you're sorely misled.
Are you prepared to receive
my judgment and regain your honor?
I am prepared to receive your judgment,
but my honor is intact.
You dare to contradict
the word of the Emperor?
All those in your house
shall be evicted from your lands.
The Bartok clan is no more.
And your delusions of self
require more extreme measures.
Your crime and defiance
to the ordinances of the capital
shall be repaid with nothing less
than your head.
- You cannot do this!
- How dare you address the Emperor directly!
My Lord, a judgment of this kind
is unprecedented for a nobleman.
This display of arrogance
cannot go unanswered.
What do you suggest?
Your Commander is fiercely loyal
to you, Lord Bartok.
And so it is fitting
that you should meet your end
by his sword.
Should you refuse the order,
all of Lord Bartok's blood relations
shall be executed as well.
- Minister!
