Season Of The Witch Page #5

guilty of witchcraft?

No, Father.

You know as well as I the Church

cannot afford that. Not now.

No, no. Our responsibility

is to deliver her for trial.

The monks will decide her fate.

Exactly.

The monks will decide her fate.

And I will not be a party to this.

Nor will the others, hopefully,

when they have heard what I have to say.

Wait! Please don't go!

- Please don't leave me alone with him.

- You fear him.

- Listen to me.

- Eckhart!

I'm not letting them...

GIRL:
Give me that key!

How did she escape?

She took the key

from around my neck.

Which way did she go?

ECKHART:
Maybe she followed

this road to the village.

Kay and Eckhart, that way.

KAY:
She's in the square!

GRuNTING)

There she is!

This is a grave.

This is a mass grave.

GIRL WHISPERING:
Papa...

Wait here.

GIRL:
Papa!

- Mila?

- Papa?

I'm here!

Eckhart!

- Mila? Mila.

- MILA:
Papa.

Papa, where are you?

- Mila. My child.

- MILA:
Papa, is that you?

- Don't run away!

- MILA:
Papa!

ECKHART:
Mila!

- Papa.

- Mila?

Eckhart. Eckhart

Eckhart Felson! Behmen!

Where are you?!

He came running out of nowhere.

Why didn't he stop?

Why didn't he see me?

Oh, dear God, what have I done?

What have I done?

He looked me in the eye,

but he didn't see me.

He... He called me Mila.

FELSON:
Behmen!

I had to run.

I had no choice. I...

I couldn't let him touch me again.

I'm so sorry.

Please! Please don't take me

back to him, please.

Please, I beg... please.

DEBELZAQ:
Heavenly Father,

we pray thee.

Take thy servant Johann Eckhart

unto the heavenly realm.

For he was a soldier of the Cross

and fought in thy name.

And in the name

of thy only son, Jesus Christ.

And thus did he die

for the glory of God.

- Amen.

- Amen.

Would anyone care

to offer some words?

Let his sacrifice not be in vain.

Behmen!

Behmen, I must speak with you.

What is it now, priest?

You must warn the others

to be careful in her presence,

not to discuss personal matters,

things she might use against...

Listen to me!

It was the witch killed Eckhart!

Now you heard what Kay said.

His mind was not his own.

She overheard us

talking of his daughter.

What exactly are you suggesting?

She sees the weakness

that lies in our hearts.

And what she sees there

she will use against us.

Crusader.

I'm truly grateful for your help.

You're very brave.

A man like you could never stand

to see a young girl come to any harm.

Debelzaq believes you are

to blame for Eckhart's death.

And you believe him?

After what he did to me?

I had no reason to harm Eckhart.

He was nothing but kind to me.

He told me I looked like his daughter.

I can see his death weighs

heavy on your mind.

Allow me to ease your pain.
