(Human moaning)
NARRATOR: Even though the Sect had
tried to make the boy a monster,
he was nothing but a stolen,
tormented child.
Though she was relieved
that her brother was alive,
Riese hated imagining
what the Sect had done to him,
what they had turned him into.
One thing was clear, though -
she would save Arkin.
In Asgard,
Trennan nervously arrived
at the Empress's chambers.
(Knocks)
Being called to her private quarters
in the middle of the night
couldn't be good.
Enter.
He'd be lucky if he
left that room alive.
Sit.
Amara, I'm sorry
I understand, Trennan.
Your loyalty lies with them.
I am saddened, however.
More than my aide,
I considered you a friend.
I can not have my closest advisor
working against me.
Your service in my court
is finished.
Amara
That is all.
Please leave the palace grounds
immediately.
No!
I'm not going anywhere.
Whether you realise it or not,
you need me.
I'm the only chance you have
of keeping your throne.
What?
They have plans for you.
You realise what this means,
don't you? Helping me.
Are you willing to give up your
goddess? And your beliefs?
If they learn of my betrayal
No harm will come to you, Trennan.
You have my word.
What do you know?
Riese is not the one you need
concern yourself with.
Another comes for you.
Herrick?
No.
The Anointed One - Arkin.
The Sect is preparing him now
to overthrow you.
So this is their hand.
This throne is mine.
You and I, we will
stop these fanatics.
If you stay by my side, that is.
Mine would not appear to
have the advantage.
You are my empress.
I serve only you.
(Wolf snarls)
No!
(Thud)
(Huntsman yells)
Thank you.
Hello, Princess.
NARRATOR: Amara had outlived
her usefulness to the Sect.
They had just made a dangerous enemy.
But the Empress didn't realise that
her pact with Trennan
had already been discovered.
Marlise held Amara's fate
in her hands, and knew it.
Standing between two opposing forces,
Riese realised that her next move
would change the face
of the entire kingdom forever.
The fate of Elysia was now
in the princess's hands.
Hers is a long journey,
fraught with peril.
But that won't stop Riese from
reclaiming her kingdom.
This princess will decide
how her fairytale ends.
Her once-upon-a-time starts now.
