Satyrion.
In every way.
A thousand then.
Any other bids? Sold.
the pair.
| for one thousand.
Come along.
Come on.
[ Whimpering .]
No! No! | What have you done? What have you done? | She's of no use to me now.
Take her.
| The price was a thousand.
[ Satyrion .]
| She split the package in two.
- Out of my way! | - Catlin.
help me! Amalia! Amalia! Keep going! | Catlin.
help me! - Help! Catlin! | - Amalia.
! Quiet.
! | Amalia! - Amalia! | - Catlin! Take her away.
| Amalia! Amalia.
! Amalia.
! [ Breathing Heavily .]
| [ Conor .]
| Catlin.
! Are you all right? You screamed.
I'm sorry.
| I was just dreaming.
Well.
it sounded real enough.
| Hmm.
We're going to the chamber.
| Will you be joining us? Mm-hmm.
| I'll be right there.
All right.
[ Man Narrating .]
| Long ago, | at the edge of the known world, the last Celtic tribes | were fighting for survival.
Europe had fallen | to the Romans, and this remote | and untamed island was the final stronghold | of the ancient ways.
[ Roaring .]
[ Catlin .]
| What's the purpose of this ritual? The rite of the skulls | is as old as our people.
Cat.
Galen would perform it | every solstice.
| Galen was a Druid.
We shouldn't be messing | with this.
It brings light to land.
| Fergus.
With Longinus's influence growing | and the Romans at our door.
we're going to need | all the light we can get.
You didn't have to come.
Right.
"Where's Conor?'' | "Oh.
he's out raising the dead.
'' "Why aren't you with him.
Fergus?'' | "Because I didn't have to come.
'' [ Chuckles .]
Is that blood? Galen's touchstone.
The old wizard | had a flair for decoration.
[ Conor .]
| Each of the skulls guard an entrance | to the other world.
They protect us.
| We light these candles to honor them.
The spirit within will wither | unless stoked by a potent flame.
Light the candles beside the skulls.
How many candles | are you gonna light? I think this is a mistake.
Yes.
you mentioned that.
This is not our business.
| Fergus.
All of these warriors | were taken in battle by our tribe.
I know what they are.
| I took my share of them.
Don't you think | they deserve our respect? They're protecting us now.
[ Liquid Dripping .]
[ Gasps .]
[ Fergus .]
| Everything all right, lass? You finished? Good.
And so are we.
The sooner we get out | of this place the better.
Let's go.
[ Thunderclap .]
Something's changed.
Already? Thought we might | at least get through the night.
There's something out there.
There's something in here too.
I wanna know what it is.
| I want to feel it.
Well.
come on.
I've often wondered | what it would be like | to watch you grow old.
to see you wither and die.
Now that's a pleasant thought.
Not for me.
Even after 400 years.
| there's no woman I loved | more than you.
Diana.
And sadly, none have been less deserving.
[ Thunderclap .]
If I've been foolish enough | to invest so many years | in such an empty vessel.
perhaps it's time to fill it.
[ Animal Howls .]
I'm proud of you.
Fergus.
| And Galen would have been as well.
We got all the candles lit | and no sign of the sky falling yet.
It's a cloudy night.
boy.
Catlin, will you | bejoining us for supper? Oh.
I'm tired.
| I think I should go to bed.
Are you feeling all right? I just didn't sleep very well.
| I'll see you in the morning.
[ Thunderclap .]
[ Clears Throat .]
Cloudy night.
boys.
[ Amalia .]
Did you really think | you could abandon me? | [ Gasps .]
[ Inhales .]
Sisters united.
There you go.
| Thank you.
Maire.
Morning.
kids.
| [ Chattering .]
Brought you a nice breakfast.
lass- | morning stew.
You looked a little | under the weather yesterday.
[ Growling .]
[ Rumbling .]
[ Howling .]
One of our lookouts reported | seeing a group of Roman soldiers | camped along the river last night.
Were they Longinus's men? | Did they have the brand on their arm? | He wasn't sure.
[ Catlin Growls .]
- Fergus.
| - [ Groaning .]
What happened? - You won't have me again! | - [ Grunts .]
Catlin! | [ Screaming .]
- What's wrong with her? | - [ Tully .]
I don't know.
- What's that on her face? | - A kiss! [ Sobbing .]
Why are you doing this to me? [ Sobbing .]
Is this the only way? For now.
| Till we find out | what's wrong with her.
What happened | the other night, Catlin? What did you dream about | last night? I dreamed of you.
I'm so afraid.
[ Sighs.
Sobbing .]
Please.
please let me go.
I won't hurt you.
I won't hurt anyone again.
| I promise.
All right.
- Stinking bastard! | - [ Conor Shouting .]
[ Catlin Screaming .]
I hate you! [ Fergus .]
| We need to talk.
She told me she got that scar | when she was a slave.
Well.
it doesn't look like | a scar anymore.
And those sores on her face.
| where did they come from? Look like the beginnings of rot.
Leprosy? | I pray it's not so.
But.
sweet Bridget.
| something's go ahold of that girl.
When we were at the chamber.
| she came running out.
| pale and shaking.
Why didn't you tell me? | You said she had a rough night.
| I didn't think much of it.
Something must have happened.
| What do you mean? Something must have gone wrong.
We have to go back to the chamber.
Go back? | We're not going back | to that place.
We could end up | making things worse.
| How much worse could it be? - Who's with Catlin now? | - Severn.
- Is she asleep? | - Last I checked.
He's with us, Sister.
| The leper.
[ Shuddering .]
Look for yourself.
He's come to give you his kiss.
The same kiss he gave to me.
No! [ Whimpering .]
Catlin.
are you all right? [ Growls .]
Oh! | [ Catlin .]
| One heart, one blood, one memory.
One heart, one blood.
one memory.
Catlin.
This body is mine now.
And I will kill anyone | who tries to drive me out.
Fergus is trying | to clear a path.
Better we go this way | than keep ourselves | open to attack.
Any change? | No.
The fevers will pass.
| but the disease doesn't stop.
She'll suffer.
Conor- | even worse.
she'll linger.
[ Rustling .]
Tully.
give us a hand with this.
Conor? I killed that man.
I killed him.
It wasn't you.
Something in the chamber | made you sick.
I don't know what it was.
| but I'm going to find out.
It was my fault.
| I should never have taken you there.
No.
It's Amalia.
- What? | - My sister.
I betrayed her.
I saved myself | because I was afraid.
When I was 1 4, I cut myself | so he wouldn't want me.
Who? | A leper- A leper who ran a brothel.
[ Sighs .]
| He bought her and he killed her.
[ Sighs .]
| And now she's come back | to punish me.
Amalia's inside me.
Conor.
She's taken my body.
- And now she wants me to die.
| - No.
You're not going to die.
Catlin.
You're not going to die.
How many tribes did you call on? | Five.
my lord.
And were they gracious? | Did they treat you with respect? No.
my lord.
But you represent me.
| Yes.
my lord.
And that held no sway | with the savages? Some.
| But many back Conor.
They believe in his ability | to unite the tribes.
Were you happier serving the queen? Was your strength more palpable | when you had Rome behind you.
- or in front of you? | - My lord? - Which did the queen prefer? | - Longinus.
leave us.
I think it best you stay.
| For who among us | has not served the queen? Get out! | I command it.
Go ahead, soldier.
| You've been doing her bidding | this long.
You repulse me.
| Diana.
The Son of God.
| that poor soul I delivered | on the cross.
was betrayed with a kiss.
Having given all of yours away, | what do I have to look forward to? You've already answered | that question.
A tortured old woman | whom I pray will still have the strength | to spite you.
For what? | To escape | your relentless self-pity! [ Door Opens, Closes .]
If it's escape you want.
| you shall have it.
[ Fergus .]
| Catlin ran from this chamber.
If anything happened to her.
| it would have been in here.
Fergus.
Sweet Bridget.
A kiss! One heart.
one blood.
one memory.
One heart, one blood, | one memory.
One heart, one blood- | What are you? A whore.
Men always love the taste | of my lips.
What did you do to Catlin? Sisters share.
So I opened the door | and gave her the leper's kiss.
Of course you did.
You can't kill me twice.
Fergus.
[ Fergus .]
| Don't tell me Galen | brought you down here too.
[ Conor.]
| Who do you think cleaned up for him? Heads up there.
| Bodies down here.
[ Rats Squeaking .]
| [ Fergus .]
| He got stuck in the middle.
What are we looking for? Catlin's possessed by a tash.
It's a spirit- | yeah.
an angry spirit | seeking vengeance.
She said it was her sister.
| Gimme a hand.
[ Both Grunting .]
What's in there? Scrolls.
| All of Galen's secrets.
Magic for good and for ill.
He wrote them down.
a Druid? | That's sacrilege.
He didn't write anything.
| These are symbols.
ancient markings.
| They're hundreds of years old.
- Do you think one of them might help Catlin? | - Maybe.
Well.
let's not be bashful.
- Aah! | - [ Squeaking .]
Might be Galen.
He's looked better.
Sweet Bridget.
Intersecting circles- The symbol of unity.
| And here- the soul cage.
a sign of possession.
- So what do we do with it? | - I don't know.
Maybe we should ask the rat.
I know the symbols.
| I just don't know how their magic.
Fine.
Well.
at least we had the chance | to come down here.
We need someone to translate.
Someone as old | as the symbols themselves.
Well.
don't look at me.
[ Dog Barking In Distance .]
[ Doors Creaking .]
[ Barking In Distance Continues .]
- [ Gasps .]
| - Not a word.
If you scream.
| I'll cut out your throat.
| Understand? Are you always so romantic? I need your help.
| My friend is in trouble.
| She could die.
- She? | - Your sorcerer could save her.
[ Sighs .]
| This is a dream.
right? | No dream.
If he really is 400 years old.
he should be able to translate something | that could save her life.
Why would he possibly do that? I thought he loved you.
Well.
that's open to debate.
But even if he did.
| why would he help you? In case you've forgotten.
| you are the bane of his existence.
Diana.
you asked me | to help you once.
You were afraid | and sought my protection.
Now.
I swear.
| if you help me now.
Longinus will never | hurt you again.
You're sweet.
aren't you? But don't you understand? I like it when he hurts me.
[ Longinus .]
| I'll keep that in mind.
I can save your friend.
The question is what you're willing | to sacrifice in return.
Everything.
Then I think we can come to terms if you're willing to join my alliance.
[ Catlin Screaming .]
I can't bear it.
| Where are you going? - To free our girl.
| - Fergus! [ Screaming Continues .]
[ Sobbing .]
I'm sorry.
Catlin.
| I'm sorry.
Forgive me.
girl.
- Stop! | - Why? There is a way.
Fergus.
Fergus.
How could you make | such a promise? You swore to kill Longinus.
Conor.
| Now you betray the cau- | He deciphered the scroll.
He can save her.
| Not at this price.
[ Catlin Groaning .]
She's beautiful.
Oh.
my God! [ Scoffs .]
She's not on display | for your pleasure.
- We have a bargain.
| - I need to be alone with her.
If anything happens to her.
if you make her worse in any way.
you'll wish you'd killed me | when you had the chance.
I want no part of this.
Too late.
my love.
Is Longinus capable of mercy? That monster? You should know better by now.
And you? Make no mistake.
| as soon as we get our girl back.
I'm going to cut that evil bastard | into a thousand pieces.
Join his alliance.
my arse.
Is this some perverse game? This is no game.
Diana.
What I do.
| I do because I love you.
Ow.
[ Inhales .]
Hello, Amalia.
Your great return.
What will you do when you kill this body | and win your revenge? Where will you go then? Why not stay - and live as a queen? | - What? How many women have I had | in 400 years? You've eclipsed them all.
Diana.
Banished their memories | to the shadows because of your cruelty, your selfishness | and your treachery.
Her spirit will fill you.
And I will get to keep you.
like a sweet memento.
- You can go to hell.
| - No.
I can't.
Amalia? Leave the girl.
- Take your place alongside me.
| - No! Think of it.
A soft bed to sleep in.
Fine clothes.
Servants who live | to fill your needs.
Aren't these the dreams of a girl | sold to a world of depravity and disease? My only dream was revenge.
She has suffered | for her sins against you.
Live.
in Diana.
with me.
and you will never know | violation or pain.
A slave becomes a master.
Liar! Why me? Because we both have suffered | more than we deserve.
"One heart.
one blood.
one memory.
'' [ Fergus .]
| And what is that supposed to mean? Conor? Unity.
- We can't drive it out.
| - What are you talking about? The tash.
her sister.
Catlin needs her inside.
She'd sooner need | a hole in her head.
| You don't understand.
When a child is injured and angry.
you don't banish her | to the woods.
You take her to home.
to heart.
Love the child.
accept her.
| and the wounds are healed.
We're dealing with a monster.
| not a child.
It is a child.
[ Breathing Heavily .]
Oh.
spare me.
Longinus.
I am.
[ Breathing Heavily .]
One heart.
one blood, one memory.
One heart, one blood.
- Move! | - [ Gasps .]
[ Grunts .]
Go now! You bastard.
! - [ Gasps .]
| - Do me a favor- die.
[ Grunts.
Groans .]
[ Longinus Shouting .]
[ Laughing .]
| You've lost her.
| Let her go! She's so deep.
| I can barely hear her scream.
[ Chuckling .]
| What's her death mean to you? Everything.
| 'Cause you want to be with her? No.
| When she dies.
| you will be together.
I despise her! | Amalia! Amalia.
you love her.
This is the only love | you've ever known.
You were separated that day.
Torn apart.
All you wanted was to be | with your big sister.
You want to touch her face.
smell her sweet breath.
You wanted to play with her.
| like children.
Your big sister.
Your flesh.
your family.
You've dreamed of her every day.
Seen her face.
| Reached out for it.
The longing.
yearning.
the ache.
[ Sobbing .]
I know it is the truth.
| because she has done | the same for you.
Only she has hated herself every day.
Cursed herself.
| blamed herself.
You have done nothing worse to her | than she has already done.
You have only scarred her face.
She has torn her heart to bits.
You love her.
| and you want to be with her.
Yes.
You were a child | afraid for your life.
There's no shame in that.
Forgive yourself.
Catlin.
Forgive yourself and live.
Don't leave us.
Catlin.
Don't leave.
You are loved here.
We love you.
I love you.
[ Amalia .]
| Catlin.
