PREVIOUSLY ON ARTHDAL CHRONICLES:
THE SWORD OF ARAMUN
MUBAEK: He's going for Lord Saya.
Chase him!
YEONBAL: General.
EUNSEOM: You are a defeated general now.
(SCREAMS)
- (ALL CHEERING)
- (SCREAMING)
I'll kill him right now.
TANYA: Let my father go.
When Prince Arok turns 10,
I will give him divine powers.
What do you want to do?
A catastrophe
or Prince Arok's divine power?
You treat slaves and servants too nicely,
so a lot of people feel uncomfortable.
High Priest must not demand anything
to slaves' owners regarding their slaves.
I'll fill up 10 jars of sorghum
with gold.
You're not the only one ruling Arthdal
with fear.
Mubaek, can you arrange a meeting?
SAYA: When I give you the sign tonight,
kill Inaishingi.
It is you. The person I saw in my dreams.
- That was you.
- Do you know your name?
What is my original name?
(GRUNTING)
Leave. Why would you come in here?
(GROANING)
EPISODE 3: WAHAN'S LOVER
Airuju, the beginning
and the end of everything in the world.
You gave birth
to everything in this world,
and there is nothing without a reason too.
You took Mubaek today
and there must be a reason to it,
but we're devastated because
we cannot understand
your meaning behind it.
Mubaek was King Tagon,
the reincarnation of Aramun Haesulla's
most trusted man.
ARAMUN HAESULLA:
FOUNDED THE ARTHDAL UNION 200 YEARS AGO
And his closest brother.
He was a brother to
every soldier of Arthdal
and our friend.
He dreamed of our happy world.
TANYA: Take care of yourself
on the long journey.
Don't get injured.
Make sure you come back.
Please accept Mubaek.
Please let Mubaek rest in peace.
SOLDIERS: Miruhisha.
ALL: Miruhisha.
Hey! Hey!
- Let me go.
- Come on!
If we're wrong about this--
You saw the Crescent Dagger.
- It was Shahati.
- Yes, it was Shahati!
- But--
- Only the Asa Clan can summon the Shahati
and the Asa Clan follows Queen's orders.
(SIGHS)
(SIGHS)
Mubaek.
(SOBBING) Mubaek.
AGAJI: What are we to do
now that Mubaek isn't around too, Niruha?
NIRUHA: A TITLE OF HONOR
What about Saya?
Is he getting better?
The yakbachi said
it all depends on Lord Saya now.
YAKBACHI: DOCTOR
(DOOR CLOSES)
Today, I sent
Mubaek away.
What happened?
Please wake up, Saya.
Please.
HAE HEULRIP: I don't think he will die.
If Lord Saya wakes up
and testifies about Shahati
You will be put in a tight spot.
- Where is Asa Yon?
- He is in Ttesarichon
TTESARICHON: A POOR VILLAGE
WHERE CRIMINALS LIVE
so even the guards
won't be able to enter easily.
Tell him to leave.
Yes, Your Highness.
(PEOPLE COUGHING AND GROANING)
(COUGHING)
Priest.
Priest.
Yes, ma'am.
How can I help you?
My granddaughter is at
the entrance of Ttesarichon.
She wants to give me something,
but she is too scared to come in.
I see.
ASA YON
I'll go and meet her.
Thank you.
- Thank you so much.
- Oh
Catch him.
Tell the king that
Commander Yeonbal requests
to meet him privately.
PYEONMI: No.
You have to go through
all the procedures
Just!
Just inform the king.
You can tell me.
The final procedure to meet the king
is getting my permission anyway.
This is not something
I can talk to you about.
Let me meet the king.
I am
King Tagon's mouth and ears.
You can tell me.
I want to meet him in private!
Arthdal lost
to the Ago Tribe.
Does this make sense?
You're a commander
who lost to the lowly Ago Tribe.
You even lost Mubaek.
How dare you raise your voice?
- What?
- You're alive
only because Mubaek died.
King Tagon said
Commander Yeonbal can come in.
Arok.
Go to your room and take a nap now.
Father.
Don't be too upset.
I'll become strong for you.
Sure.
But to do that, you must grow bigger.
You must get enough sleep.
- Do you understand?
- Yes.
YEONBAL: It was the Shahati.
Mubaek was killed by the Shahati.
Only the Asa Clan knows
how to summon the Shahati,
and Queen Taealha is the one
controlling the Shahati now.
- So?
- Prince Arok
must become the successor,
but Lord Saya is in the way.
Queen Taealha has
a clear motivation to harm Lord Saya.
Any evidence besides the Crescent Dagger?
Was there a Shahati tattoo on her back?
Was her tongue black?
The corpse
was burned completely,
so we couldn't tell.
- But the Crescent Dagger--
- Others use it too.
There's no child that can kill Mubaek
other than the Children of Shahati.
Due to all commanders
from the Daekan Force
leaving the frontline
except a small troop,
the Ago Tribe connected the supply route.
Tachukan of the Ago Tribe
broke through the Pyeongmire defense.
We should've defeated them
on the Hanchoa Plains,
but the battle reached stalemate.
How dare you come back
from the battlefront without my order
just because Mubaek died?
You'll have nothing
to say even if I execute all of you.
Yes, Your Majesty.
If you want me to take responsibility
for the defeat, I will.
I'll die.
- But Mubaek--
- You!
Who do you work for? Mubaek or me?
Are you trying to strike a deal
with Queen Taealha
using Mubaek's death?
Yeonbal
this isn't like you.
No.
I'm not like myself.
But Tagon, the head of Daekan, is gone.
And Mubaek has gone to heaven,
so I must have lost my mind.
Get out.
YEOBI: We were late.
The Royal Guards took Asa Yon.
Asa Yon won't say a thing.
Of course he won't.
Wait
Where are you going?
Are you trying to get on his bad side?
Wait until the general wakes up at least.
What if he doesn't wake up?
Stop jinxing it. I'm feeling uneasy
as it is because of Kanmoreu.
KANMOREU: ARAMUN'S LEGENDARY HORSE
I told you to stop that nonsense.
Kanmoreu?
How was that Kanmoreu?
Why would Kanmoreu let an Ago ride it?
Let me go, darn it.
You saw it too.
All our horses--
Those lowlives
must've done something to the horse.
The elite force of Arthdal
was defeated by those Ago beasts.
What do you think will happen
if rumors about Kanmoreu spread?
Think!
SHAHATI: Kill Saya.
The order will not change.
SAYA: Eunseom.
Run.
(GROANS, GASPING)
(GRUNTS)
(GROANS SOFTLY)
What's with that face?
ROYAL GUARD BAKRYANGPUNG
I need to see Saya.
He has not woken up yet.
Move aside.
(BREATHING HEAVILY)
Lord Saya.
Queen Taealha.
Why are you holding a sword?
Saya attacked me first.
(PANTING)
Lord Saya!
What are you doing? Call a yakbachi!
Call a yakbachi now!
Yes, Your Highness.
Lord Saya. Wake up.
Lord Saya!
(GRUNTS)
I heard he attacked the queen
as soon as he woke up.
I think he thought
he was still on a battlefield.
Will he wake up again?
DAMHI: Yes, of course.
Since he's an Igutu,
he will recover faster.
IGUTU: A HALF-SARAM, HALF-NEANTHAL PERSON
I concealed his lip color immediately.
No one would have noticed.
(DOOR OPENS, CLOSES)
I am making sure
that she keeps her mouth shut.
TACHUKAN
IPSAENG
Did you find him?
No.
We searched the Wadu Forest,
the Geummal Mountain,
- and the Lake of Stars.
- And the way to Molabeol?
We combed every single place there too.
Oh, dear.
CHOSAI: How can this happen?
Maybe Arthdal soldiers took him.
SUHANA: If they did, they would've told us
to surrender.
But the only rumor spreading
is the one where the Arthdal's general
got injured and went back to Arthdal.
If they discover that Inaishingi's gone,
the Ago Union is done for.
Tachukan barely managed
to connect the supply route, but
CHOSAI: How long can we last
without Inaishingi?
Anyway,
make sure to keep this between us.
Do you understand?
Nobody must find out.
MAN: Of course.
(HAWK CALLING)
TACHUKAN: What we know
is that he disappeared
right after Mubaek came.
He is the one who last saw Inaishingi.
Saw him last?
No.
Syoreujagin.
Syoreujagin saw him last.
SYOREUJAGIN
Why are you asking me that?
I'll ask again.
What did you
and Inaishingi talk about that day?
I don't know.
Ask Inaishingi.
IPSAENG: Do you think we're joking?
(GROANING) Ouch!
IPSAENG: Talk.
You're not going to?
Are you not going to talk?
Talk!
Tell me, you punk.
If you don't, I'll kill you.
Talk!
SYOREUJAGIN: You bastards.
Bastards.
You darn bastards.
At least tell me why you're beating me up.
Why are you asking me?
You damn bastards.
(BREATHING HEAVILY)
He disappeared.
Inaishingi disappeared.
Right? He disappeared, right?
Why else would you ask me that?
You bastard.
DALSAE: You know something, don't you?
You know something, right?
What did you two talk about that night?
Tell me.
That day,
he looked very serious.
(CHUCKLES)
I told him
I wouldn't go there if I were him.
But he must've gone there in the end.
So where is that place?
(WHIMPERS)
Hey.
Help us.
Please.
(SIGHS)
DALSAE: He was supposed
to meet Arthdal's general here?
What on earth?
SYOREUJAGIN: Based on what I can see,
I don't know what tragedy happened here,
but he wasn't abducted.
If he was, the Arthdal troops
wouldn't stay so quiet
Wait. (GASPS)
Arthdal's general went back
to Arthdal, right?
Hold on.
Then
(EXCLAIMS)
Maybe they were swapped.
What do you mean?
SYOREUJAGIN: Something happened here,
and Arthdal soldiers confused
Am I going too far?
What were they confused about?
They were confused, so they were swapped.
Inaishingi and the general of Arthdal
are benetbeot.
What?
(CHUCKLES) You didn't know, right?
What nonsense is that?
Tell me properly. What benetbeot?
CHAEEUN: It's true.
Chaeeun?
IPSAENG: What's true?
Do you know her?
Eunseom's benetbeot
is Saya, the general of Arthdal.
You punks.
Why are you only believing it now?
Then
the general
that went back to Arthdal really is
It might be Eunseom
if the general
really went back to Arthdal.
(GASPING)
It's here.
This is how an opportunity comes.
Let's go to Arthdal.
Let's go and save Inaishingi.
Why would you do that?
SYOREUJAGIN: Why not?
My guild recently went to Arthdal
for the first time.
- So?
- Inaishingi who is close with me
might have become the general of Arthdal.
This could be a golden opportunity.
IPSAENG: Shut up, you lunatic.
Nothing's confirmed yet.
That is exactly why
we should go and check.
What if he's not there?
Is your union going to dissolve?
Without Inaishingi,
your union will break up into pieces.
Am I wrong?
I'm correct, right?
Then what should you do?
You must go with me.
If you guys go on your own,
how will you save him?
How will you pass the castle gate?
How will you enter the palace?
Come with us.
I beg of you.
- I'm sorry.
- Excuse me.
The fate of the Ago Tribe
depends on Eunseom.
Please.
I have someone I need to treat.
It's very important to me.
ISSRUV
(IN OTHER LANGUAGE) They're benetbeot?
They're Ragaz
and Asa Hon's children.
Eunseom and Geumha.
He is Geumha.
He is the one I met
with Rottip
Eunseom?
(IN KOREAN)
I think Eunseom went to Arthdal.
What are you going to do?
I should go too.
But I must save him
and bring him with me.
NOSUNAHO: What is your relationship
with him?
SAYA: If I don't come back
to Arthdal safe and sound
who knows what might be
in her food that she'll eat in the palace?
I need to save him
to save Nunbyeol.
(MAN SCREAMING)
"Queen Taealha told me
to send the Children of Shahati."
You just need to say that.
It's nothing difficult.
It's the truth too.
Right?
(BREATHING HEAVILY)
(PANTING)
Should I cut off your ankles first?
You'll be happy crawling on the floor
with your old friends
in Ttesarichon forever.
- Won't you?
- (CHUCKLING)
Do you think
I'll say what Tagon wants to hear?
(LAUGHING)
- (GRUNTS)
- (SCREAMING)
HAE TUAK: Asa Yon won't talk.
Lord Saya might not remember
when he wakes up.
Whether he remembers or not,
whether he saw the Shahati or not,
Saya will say this
"It's Taealha.
Taealha sent the Children of Shahati."
He has no reason not to say that.
Then shouldn't we get the prince
out of the palace first?
YEOBI: It is difficult to do so now.
Gilseon is managing everyone
who meets the prince.
Is it impossible
even if Her Highness goes in herself?
If we try to take Prince Arok out
in this situation,
they will make a big fuss.
What about the one you told me about?
Yes.
She's one of the servants
newly in charge of the prince.
Get her ready.
I understand.
(SIGHS)
(GASPING)
Lord Saya.
Are you okay?
Are you awake now?
What happened?
What do you mean?
I
attacked someone with a sword.
Right.
They said you probably mistook
Queen Taealha for your enemy
because you fainted in the battlefield.
Queen?
Yes. Queen Taealha.
Actually,
Queen Taealha is more or less your enemy.
(SIGHS) Anyway, I'm relieved.
Everyone was waiting for you to wake up
because you need to testify.
Testify?
Yes, testify.
You must tell them who killed Mubaek
and who attacked you.
It was the Children of Shahati.
Queen Taealha ordered
the Children of Shahati to attack you.
Mubaek passed away,
but I will succeed him.
I'll tell King Tagon
and Tanya Niruha that you woke up.
Get ready.
Tanya?
MOA
It's so fascinating.
How can water spring
from a rock by itself like that?
It's also fascinating
how the water drains itself
when it's full.
The rock springs water by itself
with divine powers,
and when it's full,
the sacred water drains itself
to Arthdal's wells
with the Hae Tribe's technology.
Do you have anything to tell me?
Actually,
you said we all were the descendants
of Asa Sin.
Slaves, ministers, and merchants alike.
All of us.
You said I was the second descendant too.
I did.
What about it?
The third descendant said
it was too strange.
Actually, I find it strange too.
How could a mere slave like me
Moa.
You have something else to say.
Niruha.
Can the second descendant of Asa Sin
relay the message to the first descendant
of Asa Sin in reverse?
Of course you can.
Go ahead.
The first descendant of Asa Sin
hears the second descendant's words.
I don't know which descendant
is asking this question.
JEUNGSUGAE: High Priest Niruha.
JEUNGSUGAE
What brings you all the way here?
Is this where
JWASOL: MINISTER
the slaves working in your farm stay?
It's not a big farm.
- But why--
- It's nothing.
I'm just here to have a look.
Wait.
This is no place for someone like you.
It is a shabby place.
(SCOFFS)
Why are you laughing?
I must be seeing things.
There shouldn't be anyone in Arthdal
who can get in the way
of the reincarnation of Asa Sin.
I'm wondering what this is in front of me.
(GASPS)
(PEOPLE MOANING)
(COUGHING)
Why
aren't you treating those
that are dying?
(LAUGHS)
Niruha.
They're sick and wounded,
so they will die anyway.
Instead of healing them,
it's much better just to buy new slaves.
- Niruha.
- Are you higher than
Airuju who is in charge of lives?
Who are you to divide life and death
and discriminate lives?
Niruha.
Please forgive me.
I selected those with a lot of slaves
and gave them a lot more blessings
and totems
and you promised to
take good care of them.
You betrayed my faith
and severed the promise with God.
How will you reconnect
the severed promise?
I will take good care of them.
I will treat them immediately, Niruha.
What are you doing? Call the yakbachi.
The descendant of Asa Sin
who asked me a question must be here.
You asked
how can a sickly slave
become the descendant of Asa Sin.
I, Asa Tanya, High Priest
and the reincarnation of Asa Sin
will answer.
The descendants of Asa Sin
aren't decided by your lineage or status.
It is passed on via Asa Sin's will.
Whoever follows Asa Sin's will
is the descendant
of Asa Sin.
Tell this to everyone you meet.
Eat up.
Eat up. Is it good?
Here.
Eat up. Eat slowly.
Slowly, yes.
Oh, Niruha.
(EXCLAIMS GRACIOUSLY)
We, believers of
the White Peak Mountain's Hearts,
plan to join you in giving relief.
Is that so?
I'm grateful.
Airuju will look after you.
But everyone wants to know
when you will acknowledge our doctrine.
The time will come.
Right, Niruha.
She will make clothes
for children without proper clothing.
Thank you so much for volunteering
to do something so difficult.
It's nothing, Niruha.
I was able to come to Arthdal recently
and make fabrics
all thanks to Airuju and Niruha.
I'm just trying to repay the favor.
Actually,
I really like children
whether they're orphans or slaves.
(CHILDREN SHOUTING)
Niruha, isn't my flower decoration pretty?
Yes.
It is very pretty.
I'm sure Asa Sin will like it too.
Here.
Is this for me?
Goodness.
Hey. Gosh.
Hey.
Give me that.
- (CHILDREN GIGGLING)
- Brats.
Is it fun? Is it?
CHILDREN: Yes.
(CHUCKLES) My goodness.
How strange.
At that age, even that must be fun.
It is fun.
It is indeed.
That is
a kind of illness.
That's what Eunseom always used to say.
He did.
When I asked what was so fun about it
he would just say it was fun.
He thought it was kind of an illness.
(SIGHS)
Lord Saya.
Are you okay?
GILSEON: No, don't bother.
We now have two more slaves.
It's all thanks to you.
Are you okay, Lord Saya?
None of your business.
Lord Saya.
How dare you stop me?
I apologize.
MAN: Lord Saya!
You're awake.
Ishillobu dikeva.
ISHILLOBU DIKEVA: GOD'S CARE
Gosh.
I apologize.
I must've startled you.
Airuju must've taken care of you.
Well
- Yes.
- (LAUGHS)
If it's okay with you,
would you like to get a report?
Why are you looking at me like that?
(SIGHS)
It's nothing.
What happened to the front?
It has reached stalemate.
We're confronting the Ago Tribe
with Bijaram Canyon as the border.
Then Arthdal
Did our troops retreat?
Well
After Mubaek died,
you couldn't give them orders
GILSEON: Yeonbal and Gitoha.
It was because these two commanders
abandoned the front and came back.
What do you mean we abandoned it?
How can you say that?
How else can I phrase it?
The front has reached stalemate,
and the war became prolonged
thanks to you.
HAE TUAK: Your Highness.
It's bad news.
Lord Saya woke up.
He's walking around and everything.
He's perfectly fine.
Lord Saya will testify soon.
What should we do?
YEOBI: I brought her here.
She's the one I told you about.
She's one of the servants
serving the prince.
NUNBYEOL
Yes.
I'm counting on you.
You.
What is that?
Well
- It is laundry.
- Laundry?
Laundry's done over there.
Uncover it.
What are you doing? Uncover it quickly.
I can deal with them
in a second.
What is she saying?
(BONES CRACKING)
- Good job.
- It was nothing.
Excuse me.
Can I become a servant
who serves the king now?
The queen will remember you.
Just wait.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
MEN: You're back, sir.
Why is everyone here?
What about the guild?
Get back to your posts and work.
I have business to attend
with my guests over here.
I understand.
"I have business
to attend with my guests."
Goodness.
You have no idea
how many people work for me
and how much wealth I manage.
How are we going to meet the general now?
(CLEARS THROAT) We should get going soon.
Before that,
let's go see a familiar face.
There's someone I want to surprise too.
Let's go.
- Hey.
- What is he saying?
DALSAE: Doti?
You're Doti?
Susu Dalsae.
SUSU: A TERM WHICH REFERS TO MALES
Doti. Dalsae.
- What?
- Wait.
Go in.
You bastard. Go in, bastard.
- Gosh. Don't push me.
- Go in.
I got it. I'm going in.
You're going to swallow a fly, you haho.
HAHO: A SERVAN
DOTI: Are you really Susu Dalsae?
What happened?
You survived
and now you're all grown up, Doti.
How did you guys come here?
On horse, of course. We didn't fly here.
This is impossible.
You and you.
You guys traveling together
doesn't make sense to begin with.
Should I tell you something
that makes even less sense?
I am the head
of the Hamji Guild
that entered Arthdal recently!
- (LAUGHS)
- What?
What nonsense is this madman saying?
The head of Hamji Guild is--
That's me, you pathetic haho.
How dare you?
- You bastard.
- Let me go. It hurts.
GILSEON: What? He didn't come?
He clearly said he would go see the king.
Are you sure?
- Did you stand guard the whole time?
- MUNGTAE: Yes.
I last saw him in the western corridor.
What?
And you just let him go?
Don't you know how important
what Lord Saya might say is?
The court meeting will start soon.
If the queen were to hurt him
Search everywhere
from the palace to the marketplace
- and every alley around it!
- Right away, sir.
(FOOTSTEPS)
The general disappeared.
Everyone is looking for him.
- Did he get caught?
- Eunseom might've escaped.
(BREATHES DEEPLY) Yes.
If he got caught,
the palace would've been in an uproar.
Did he escape?
If he didn't,
we must find him first.
Yes, of course.
Firstly, start searching
from the bottom of the western gate.
I'll make my men look for him
from the south
of the Great Gochiju Rock--
Why are you so enthusiastic?
How should I say this?
I have the feeling
that something big might happen.
Gosh.
(SIGHS)
Search thoroughly.
He has yet to fully recover,
so he might have fainted somewhere.
SOLDIERS: Yes, sir!
(GROANS)
(GROANING)
I can control my breath now.
I could easily tear you apart now.
Tell me properly.
Where is my sister?
Nunbyeol?
Why are you back alone? Where's my sister?
Where is my sister?
WOMAN: Lord Saya?
It is you.
Kill Saya. The order will not change.
He's talking with me.
(GRUNTS)
Who is she?
Where is my sister?
(STRAINING)
(GASPS)
(GASPING FOR BREATH)
You're not Saya.
What happened?
Why are you in Arthdal? Where's Saya?
Have you heard about my sister?
DALSAE: Your sister is safe.
Inaishingi.
(BREATHING HEAVILY)
Why didn't you come with my sister?
She said there was someone
she had to treat.
She said it was important.
Could that person be
Saya?
I think so.
She must've thought she had
to bring Saya for me to be safe.
IPSAENG: You must go back now.
Everyone is so anxious.
Beyond that wall
is the royal guards' lodging.
A lot of them know your face
and something might happen.
Merchants will use the northern gate
at night. We'll leave then.
How do you know about Arthdal so well?
Syoreujagin said
we can leave with his guild's goods.
You came with Syoreujagin?
I'll explain on the way. Let's get moving.
Nunbyeol. When I go back,
I'll find your sister
and send her back safely.
- I promise.
- Thank you.
Please help me.
By the way, how did you know it was me?
No one could tell.
Sarams won't know,
but you two have different smells.
EUNSEOM: Are you Doti?
Are you really Doti?
Susu Eunseom.
SEUCHEON: Excuse me.
Eunseom.
It's nice to see you and all,
but how long will you stay here?
He'll be here as long as he wants.
(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)
Don't worry.
I'm going to leave soon.
SEUCHEON: Is that so?
Of course.
Inaishingi is in my house.
(EUNSEOM SIGHS)
SEUCHEON: Inaishingi is in my house.
Inaishingi is in my house.
MAN: Have you seen the general?
Gosh.
He is
Darn it.
Are you just going to leave?
Maybe we could meet
the Wahan Tribe before we leave.
No. We can't meet anyone.
Both you and I.
What did Yakdu say before he died?
- What did he say--
- Now's not the time.
We must hurry up. We're already late.
We must not meet anyone from Wahan.
This is an order.
Then what about Tanya?
Tanya's been looking
for Susu Eunseom continuously.
She missed you so much.
The soldiers are searching
for Lord Saya all over the marketplace.
Shop owner, come out.
Did Lord Saya come here
Lord Saya. You were here.
What happened?
What do you mean?
You disappeared before the court meeting,
so everyone's panicking.
Is he the one?
The guy who betrayed the Wahan Tribe?
DALSAE: Yes.
I didn't expect to see him here.
What do you want to do?
Why are there so many soldiers?
Should we just do it now?
Tanya Niruha will be there too.
She was desperately waiting
for you to wake up.
Let's go.
MAN: What will Lord Saya say?
Lord Saya will go straight
to the reception room.
Captain.
- Yes.
- Before his testimony starts,
place more guards in the room.
I already gave the order.
Place one troop to the east
of the Gambal Mountain
in front of the Fortress of Fire
and wait for the order.
You don't know what the queen might do
once Lord Saya gives his testimony.
We must be very careful
to avoid any mishap.
BOTH: Yes, sir.
I was happy to hear that you woke up.
Airuju looked after you.
Let us go, General.
Have you fully recovered?
Was it really Taealha's doing?
Both you and Mubaek.
But then again,
that's not important, is that?
Regardless of who it was,
your testimony would be the same.
Shahati.
Can we get rid of
the queen just with that?
Well, the king must've prepared
the next steps.
He'll throw you out because you lost,
and he'll hold the queen accountable
for Mubaek's death and throw her out.
Did you meet him?
Did you meet your benetbeot?
Did you meet him?
(EUNSEOM SOBBING)
Saya
don't do this.
(CONTINUES SOBBING)
Saya
stop.
The world
is fun.
It must be some kind of an illness.
(GASPS)
My Queen.
(WHISPERING INDISTINCTLY)
ALL: High Priest Niruha.
BAKRYANGPUNG:
It was the Children of Shahati.
Queen Taealha ordered
the Children of Shahati to attack you.
He'll throw you out because you lost,
and he'll hold the queen accountable
for Mubaek's death and throw her out.
EUNSEOM: Taealha, the queen.
Lord Saya.
Let me ask you this first.
That day, why did you go
to the warehouse in Hanchoa with Mubaek?
(CLEARS THROAT, CHUCKLES)
It's not something I can say here.
TAGON: It's related to Mubaek's death.
General, answer him.
I followed Mubaek
because he said
there was someone I needed to meet.
GILSEON: Who was that someone?
I don't know.
You don't know? That doesn't make sense.
I didn't ask him.
TAGON: Why?
Because he was Mubaek.
You trusted Mubaek fully and followed him,
but you got attacked?
Yes. As soon as I entered the warehouse,
they attacked us.
And it caught on fire.
(SIGHS) Actually,
my memory of that day isn't clear.
What kind of knife did the attacker use?
It was a strangely shaped knife.
ASA PIL: Strangely shaped knife?
Was it a knife you saw for the first time?
Wasn't it this knife?
He said it was a strange knife.
If it wasn't that knife,
then they weren't the Children of Shahati.
Lord Saya. It was this knife.
That knife
CHOBAL: Lord Saya?
Don't you know the name
of that dagger?
GILSEON: There's no way
- he wouldn't know its name.
- No.
Keep quiet.
Lord Saya. What is the name
of that dagger?
TANYA: Eunseom.
Eunseom.
It's Crescent Dagger.
It's Crescent Dagger, Eunseom.
If it was the Crescent Dagger,
would I have said
it was a strangely shaped knife?
It wasn't the Crescent Dagger.
YEONBAL: Lord Saya.
That doesn't make sense.
This was found on the site.
Whoever attacked Mubaek later
might have had the Crescent Dagger.
But
I didn't see them.
GITOHA: It wasn't the Children of Shahati?
Then can you draw the sword?
EUNSEOM: The knife looked like this.
YEONBAL: I've never seen
such a knife before.
How is that a knife?
If it wasn't the Children of Shahati,
who was it, General?
I feel very frustrated myself.
And actually,
I'm not certain about that drawing either.
The memory of that day is very faint.
But I think I saw someone in the fire.
That might or might not have been
the Children of Shahati.
But
I will remember.
Certainly.
You did well.
You should get some rest.
Your memories will come back to you.
WOMAN: High Priest Niruha has arrived.
(BOTH SOBBING)
When did you discuss
what to say with Saya?
I never did, my King.
If that wasn't the case,
you wouldn't have come here
without any plan,
my Queen.
I did have a plan,
but that wasn't it.
I see.
Is that so?
My Queen.
(SIGHS SOFTLY)
Why did Lord Saya do that?
You were shocked too, right?
What's with that strange sword?
And what should we do about the prince?
Should I send him back?
Your Highness, where are you going?
So that's what happened.
Then what about Saya?
I think he's alive.
Not sure how well, though.
Ah
Thank goodness.
Although he wouldn't feel like
he was alive even if he was.
Why?
Because he lost the war.
Saya might be thinking he got eliminated
from the battle of the heirs.
By the way,
how could I hear your voice just now?
I think
I developed the psychic ability
of the gods.
It would've been nice
if Mother Choseol saw this.
I'm sure she will see it.
I'm sure she's always watching you
to check if you're doing as she said.
By the way,
was it really not the Children of Shahati?
No. It was.
Saya said that too.
Then why didn't you say that?
Looking at you
made me want to do something fun.
What are you planning to do?
More importantly,
there's something you must know.
What is it?
It's for you and I,
and everyone else in the world.
What is it?
(SIGHS) You make it sound so grand.
What is it?
The queen has arrived.
(DOOR OPENS)
Gosh.
I didn't expect to see you here,
High Priest Niruha.
You must have come here
because you were worried
about the general as well.
Well, it seems like
I don't have to worry about him.
Should I come back later?
You don't have to.
Yes, High Priest Niruha.
I will go to the Great Shrine to see you.
Find someone to search for Saya.
Sorry? What do you mean?
He was in there.
I'll explain as we go.
EUNSEOM: You came earlier than I thought.
You look very relaxed.
(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)
Crescent Dagger?
You must have a lot
of questions to ask me.
No.
I only have one question.
Why
did I testify like that?
I'd like to know that too.
But that's not what I really want to know.
Then what is it?
I'd like to know now.
Well
What I want to ask
is nothing much.
Just who are you
and why are you pretending to be Saya?
(CLOSING THEME MUSIC PLAYING)
ARTHDAL CHRONICLES: THE SWORD OF ARAMUN
YEOBI: What do you mean by the man
who has the same face as Lord Saya?
TAEALHA: You must've known
something, Niruha.
MUNGTAE: He must be Eunseom.
He's Eunseom, right?
YEOLSON: We must work together
and kill him.
That's how we can survive.
ASA SAKAN: Don't trust anyone, Tagon.
MAN 1: You will pay
for those sins today, Tagon.
TAGON: I just need to kill all of them.
Every single one of them,
as I always have.
MAN 2: Igutu
TAEALHA: No
