me.
Yashka, look me in the eye.
I sent you for Finist
the Brave Falcon,
and what have you done?
Arrest the scribe!
Wait! What?
What are you doing?
He's wasted my husband.
He's orphaned me.
Tell him to get my husband back,
Voivode!
- How did he waste him?
- Put him down through the earth.
How could you?!
She's lying!
She sent him there herself!
It's you who's lying!
You shameless liar!
Send him over there, Voivode.
Are you mocking me
or what?!
Get them out of here!
To the cell, both of them!
Me to the cell?
I'll show you!..
Allow me to report, Voivode.
I've carried out your order!
Stop him!
- You have?
- I've brought a whole cart of food.
- And where's he?
- Who?
The hero.
Or maybe she's him?
She is going to find Finist.
She must know where he is.
All right, all right...
Is it true, girl?
Yes, it's true, Voivode.
I'm looking for the hero who saved us
from captivity. I've got for him...
Alert! It's Kartaus's boat!
They're waving the white flag!
They want to moor!
The ambassadors?
Shall we kill them all at once?
Are you crazy?
- One at a time?
- Vavila! You...
Why haven't you said so in the first
place, instead of cursing.
The ambassadors with a white flag
must be respected.
We'll have to receive them.
But everyone
keep your ears pricked!
The First and Foremost Ambassador
of Kartaus, Son of Spider,
Fingal Bardadym!
Well, tell us why
you are here, Mister Fi...
Fi!
- Dadym!
- Dadym.
Not Dadym, but Bardadym.
The Great and Almighty
and Omnipresent
Kartaus the Red Whisker
demands your obedience
in fulfillment
of his three wishes.
Three!
Three?
Isn't it too much?
No, just right.
You must immediately
surrender all your weapons,
recognize the great Kartaus
your lord and ruler
and... present to him
one hundred barrels of gold.
One hundred?
Surrender until it's too late!
We're a legion!
Our warriors are
the strongest in the world!
What?
Well, do you surrender?
Go ahead.
It's nothing. I dare your servants
to snatch a rope
from my hero's hands.
If they do it, you'll get the gold.
If they don't , you'll get a thrashing.
Good for you, Yashka!
Hold on, Yashka!
Do not disgrace us!
Atta boy, Yashka!
- We're winning!
- We've won!
Enough!
We've won.
Time to give a thrashing.
They beat their own!
What a weakling you are!
Let's throw them into the river, boys!
Let them soak there!
Come on, men,
let's clobber
those uninvited guests!
Wait!
Don't touch him!
Stop growling, you forest beast,
you better listen to me.
If you're old,
be my grandfather.
If you're middle-aged,
be my uncle.
But if you're young,
be my intended, my dear friend.
Accept a present from me.
I embroidered it myself.
Finist! Hurray!
Brothers!
To arms!
The enemy is at our gates!
Boys!
Attack from the right!
Press them to the river!
Let's drown the infidels!
Kastryuk, you idiot!
Kartaus ordered to deliver
that hero to the palace.
How can I do it?
Think!
Is it really your choice, beautiful,
to sit locked up
on account of a common man
and insist on getting him back from
under the earth?
It's none of your business.
Listen... I can help you.
You only have to untie my hands.
You will live in splendour,
eat and drink from gold dishes.
Come on, undo them.
You mean it, the gold dishes?
I'll make Finist get
your husband from under the earth.
You will cheat.
No, I won't .
Untie them. Hurry up!
Look, what a troika!
Receive the cart, brothers!
It's much safer to have bread.
Finist will not go with us
of his own will.
Do as I say
if you want your husband back.
Go to Finist and stick
this comb in his curls.
Meanwhile
I'll run like a goose
to the other side of the yard.
I'll be waiting for you two
beneath the cart. Go!
Stop pushing around
or I'll stick it all right!
Oh, come on, come on!
- Hey, careful!
- Sorry.
Stay away!
I can't put you out of my heart,
fair maiden.
Since that day
when I first saw
your beautiful eyes
and heard
