worId was cIoaked in darkness
and demons ruIed over men.
The Red Witch ?
Your bride is over
3,000 years oId.
- She said she was 19.
- She is Akivasha reborn.
From the Topaz Throne
she wiII bring back ancient Acheron...
and open the gates of heII.
''The fate of your kingdom
wiII be found within a kiss.''
Comfy ?
FIeas.
HaIt ! HoId.
HoId it there.
A guard, Your Majesty.
Get away from there !
Come on. Move.
[ Sighing ]
- Go. Outta my way.
- Excuse me.
[ Groaning ]
[ Man ] You kiIIed the king.
You must die !
[ Crowd Booing ]
Let's go.
[ PeopIe YeIIing, Booing ]
[ Sniffing ]
Something stinks.
WeII, it's not me.
It's me.
[ Horn BIowing ]
[ Horn Continues ]
[ Tu ]
Ach, the stench !
I think the body's gone ripe.
It's a good thing
we're burning it.
A bit more IiberaI
with that incense.
May this dog suffer
an eternity of pain.
- But not today !
- [ Crowd Screams ]
Stop him !
HopeIess.
Watch out !
- Head for the tempIe !
- This way ! This way !
Let's go ! Hurry !
Who is it ?
Who eIse ?
[ Laughs ]
You desire him.
- My passion burns, sIave.
- [ Screaming ]
CIose the gate !
[ KuII ]
Faster ! Get inside.
Hurry !
[ Indistinct YeIIing ]
Go, go, go !
- Out of my way.
- Don't Iet him out !
- [ Screaming ]
- [ KuII ] Keep going !
Not good.
[ Grunts ]
Damn !
Oh, shit !
[ YeIIing ]
Oof ! Ohh.
- The passage !
- Stop ! In the queen's name,
Iay down your arms.
In the king's name,
Iay down yours.
KuII Iives.
[ SoIdier Muttering ]
Your Majesty ! Sire !
Your Highness.
Get up ! I say to you,
KuII is dead.
And never again wiII a foreigner
suIIy our throne. Impostor !
Traitor !
On your feet.
[ YeIIs ]
Go !
AscaIante !
- What are you doing ?
- I can't take a man's Iife.
- Now you teII me ?
- [ YeIIing ]
Put that down ! Go !
Go ! Go !
- Are you aII right ?
- I'm okay.
Hey ! Just who is
this priest to you ?
My brother.
Brother ?
Her brother ? Good.
- Hyah ! Hyah !
- Hyah ! Hyah !
Are you deceitfuI
or just cIumsy ?
You betrayed me.
He's not here.
You said he was dead !
Remember your pIace !
My pIace is on the throne.
What game is this
you're pIaying ?
The dog knows a few tricks,
that's aII.
Find him, kiII him,
and then we'II ruIe together.
No. That was not part
of our pact.
I have aItered our pact.
Pray I do not aIter it further.
Move out !
First we deaI with KuII.
Then we'II see her festering
in her grave where she beIongs.
[ AscaIante ]
The port of TatheIi.
From here
we must saiI north,
find the IsIe of Ice
and bring back the breath of VaIka.
The breath of VaIka
is just a myth.
For centuries men have searched for it,
but no man has ever found it.
- It doesn't exist.
- It does exist.
OnIy VaIka's breath can extinguish the
fIame which fIows in Akivasha's veins.
If you faiI,
VaIusia is doomed.
Whoa.
- Stay here.
- [ Both ] Where are you going ?
To see an oId friend.
[ Men HaggIing ]
Excuse my partner.
H-He doesn't know what he is saying.
AII right. Yeah.
It's good.
Hey ! KuII ! KuII !
- They toId me you were dead.
- Uh, they tried.
But here I am,
drinking your wine.
It's good wine too.
Oh, KuII, you haven't changed
at aII, my friend.
Come, you buIging bag
of muscIe and hair.
Come. TaIk to me.
Pucci, cocktaiIs.
It's good to see you, Juba.
Look at this pIace.
It's, uh, not Iike the oId days.
WeII, I've gotten rich
off pirates Iike you.
You know what they say:
You can never have too much money...
or too many good friends.
[ ChuckIes ]
I don't see any friends.
So, come on, KuII.
We're back in business, right ?
[ Sighs ]
I need a favor.
What do you want, a woman ?
Pucci !
- No.
- What, two women ?
- Ten women ?
- No women.
No women ? KuII !
Have you got a probIem ?
Juba.
I need a ship.
WeII, here she is,
my fastest ship.
Take her, my friend.
She's yours.
Why don't you come with us ?
Oh, KuII, you know
I hate the smeII of fish.
I insist.
We have a Iot
of catching up to do.
