1
00:00:00,701 --> 00:00:04,661
We are interested in a book in
the possession of Edward Kelley.

2
00:00:04,821 --> 00:00:07,621
I've sent the ambassadors to
Bohemia to retrieve Kelley.

3
00:00:07,781 --> 00:00:09,181
The emperor rebuffed them.

4
00:00:09,341 --> 00:00:10,941
Perhaps he will be more receptive to me.

5
00:00:11,101 --> 00:00:13,701
You can be very persuasive.

6
00:00:13,861 --> 00:00:17,341
My father has commanded me
to return to Sept-Tours.

7
00:00:18,781 --> 00:00:20,341
-Matthew!
-Stay back!

8
00:00:20,501 --> 00:00:22,541
This is what we call blood rage.

9
00:00:22,701 --> 00:00:26,741
It is an affliction,
sickness of the vampire blood.

10
00:00:26,901 --> 00:00:29,261
<i>The body was... torn apart.</i>

11
00:00:29,421 --> 00:00:31,421
<i>I haven't seen anything</i>
<i>like that in centuries</i>

12
00:00:31,581 --> 00:00:33,181
<i>and we do all</i>
<i>know the rumors</i>

13
00:00:33,341 --> 00:00:36,301
<i>about the De Clermonts'</i>
<i>infected bloodline.</i>

14
00:00:36,461 --> 00:00:39,181
You're reborn and forever
a member of our family.

15
00:00:39,341 --> 00:00:43,501
I'm Matthew, give my body to you,
Diana, in faithful matrimony.

16
00:00:43,661 --> 00:00:45,421
And I receive it.

17
00:00:45,581 --> 00:00:46,901
<i>My dearest Isabeau,</i>

18
00:00:47,061 --> 00:00:50,781
<i>I am able to find words to straddle</i>
<i>the centuries that separated.</i>

19
00:00:50,941 --> 00:00:55,861
<i>Our son mated to a woman who</i>
<i>walks in the footsteps of the goddess.</i>

20
00:00:56,021 --> 00:01:00,461
<i>They journey now to Bohemia</i>
<i>in search of the </i>Book of Life.

21
00:01:51,581 --> 00:01:53,581
Halt.

22
00:01:53,741 --> 00:01:55,941
<i>Wie geht dahin?</i>

23
00:01:58,501 --> 00:02:00,181
I'm Matthew Roydon,

24
00:02:00,341 --> 00:02:02,741
I'm here on business for
Queen Elizabeth of England.

25
00:02:02,901 --> 00:02:07,341
His Imperial Majesty Rudolf II
tires of Elizabeth's ambassadors...

26
00:02:07,501 --> 00:02:10,141
I am no mere ambassador,

27
00:02:10,301 --> 00:02:14,941
and I will have the Emperor's
answer from his own lips. Not yours.

28
00:02:40,221 --> 00:02:44,061
Find Gallowglass and my man
Pierre, would you?

29
00:03:03,741 --> 00:03:05,661
Wait here.

30
00:03:10,901 --> 00:03:13,301
This is just the Emperor's
hunting lodge?

31
00:03:13,461 --> 00:03:17,541
Yes. Kelley chose
his benefactor very well.

32
00:03:17,701 --> 00:03:19,061
The might
of the Holy Roman Empire

33
00:03:19,221 --> 00:03:21,861
dwarves that of England
in every respect.

34
00:03:23,901 --> 00:03:26,661
He certainly
has an eye for beauty.

35
00:03:26,821 --> 00:03:28,661
Hmm.

36
00:03:32,581 --> 00:03:37,261
His Imperial Majesty
grants you a brief audience.

37
00:03:52,741 --> 00:03:54,461
Even when I retreat
into the mountains,

38
00:03:54,621 --> 00:03:58,341
I cannot escape a pestering
by England's diplomatic hordes.

39
00:03:58,501 --> 00:04:00,061
Matthew Roydon,
Your Majesty.

40
00:04:00,221 --> 00:04:02,461
I know exactly who you are,
Matthaus de Clermont.

41
00:04:02,621 --> 00:04:04,541
Since you introduce yourself
as Roydon,

42
00:04:04,701 --> 00:04:08,181
I then assume you are here in
your capacity as Elizabeth's spy?

43
00:04:08,341 --> 00:04:11,501
I come representing my Queen,
but not as a spy.

44
00:04:11,661 --> 00:04:15,061
I would speak with her
subject, Edward Kelley.

45
00:04:15,221 --> 00:04:19,421
Then you are in the wrong place.
<i>Herr </i>Kelley resides in Prague.

46
00:04:19,581 --> 00:04:23,061
I have heard that
he travels with your court.

47
00:04:25,621 --> 00:04:27,461
Do you question me?

48
00:04:27,621 --> 00:04:31,781
I know what you are, vampire.

49
00:04:31,941 --> 00:04:36,381
Remember, you are only permitted
on Bohemian soil by my grace.

50
00:04:37,901 --> 00:04:41,821
I apologize, Your Majesty...
Matthew is only pressing my case.

51
00:04:41,981 --> 00:04:44,781
I had hoped I would be given
an opportunity for discourse

52
00:04:44,941 --> 00:04:48,501
with one of England's
most esteemed alchemists.

53
00:04:48,661 --> 00:04:50,861
You have an interest in alchemy?

54
00:04:51,021 --> 00:04:53,861
It has been my life's work.

55
00:04:54,021 --> 00:04:57,421
Might an Emperor ask your name?

56
00:04:57,581 --> 00:05:00,781
Diana, Your Majesty.

57
00:05:00,941 --> 00:05:04,381
<i>La diosa del casa!</i>

58
00:05:04,541 --> 00:05:07,621
The goddess... of the hunt.

59
00:05:07,781 --> 00:05:10,861
May I introduce my wife,
Your Majesty?

60
00:05:11,021 --> 00:05:15,341
My spies would have informed me had
Elizabeth's Shadow taken a wife...

61
00:05:15,501 --> 00:05:19,661
particularly one so intriguing.

62
00:05:19,821 --> 00:05:24,101
Perhaps you should consider
hiring more thorough spies,

63
00:05:24,261 --> 00:05:25,621
Your Majesty.

64
00:05:25,781 --> 00:05:28,821
Enjoy your time in Bohemia,
Mistress Roydon.

65
00:05:28,981 --> 00:05:32,581
Use it to teach your husband
manners befitting my court.

66
00:06:43,701 --> 00:06:46,381
I don't like the way
he looks at you.

67
00:06:46,541 --> 00:06:49,501
Like a jewel he wanted to add
to his collection.

68
00:06:49,661 --> 00:06:51,581
Oh, I can handle
a little clumsy flirting

69
00:06:51,741 --> 00:06:54,261
if it gets us closer to the Book.

70
00:06:56,581 --> 00:06:58,861
Gallowglass!

71
00:07:00,541 --> 00:07:02,421
Oh!

72
00:07:09,301 --> 00:07:11,781
You've mated?

73
00:07:11,941 --> 00:07:15,501
Well... I should
call you Auntie now?

74
00:07:15,661 --> 00:07:18,181
-Where is Pierre?
-At the lodgings.

75
00:07:18,341 --> 00:07:20,701
We have an unexpected guest.

76
00:07:20,861 --> 00:07:22,901
This way.

77
00:07:30,341 --> 00:07:32,741
-Mistress Roydon!
-Jack!

78
00:07:32,901 --> 00:07:34,701
We was on an enormous ship
and there was a storm

79
00:07:34,861 --> 00:07:37,901
and lots of people were sick,
but I wasn't.

80
00:07:38,061 --> 00:07:39,941
Come now, Jack,

81
00:07:40,101 --> 00:07:41,701
bedtime.

82
00:07:46,061 --> 00:07:49,421
I know.
But once you left...

83
00:07:49,581 --> 00:07:53,261
nightmares every time he slept,
weeping through the day.

84
00:07:53,421 --> 00:07:55,141
And you brought him
to Bohemia?

85
00:07:55,301 --> 00:07:57,021
He tried to come on his own.

86
00:07:57,181 --> 00:07:59,941
I couldn't take my eye off him.
It wasn't safe.

87
00:08:00,101 --> 00:08:01,901
It's not safe here!

88
00:08:03,381 --> 00:08:04,901
I'm sorry.

89
00:08:05,061 --> 00:08:09,301
But what would you have me do?
Keep him prisoner?

90
00:08:15,381 --> 00:08:17,061
Rudolf might be
telling the truth.

91
00:08:17,221 --> 00:08:19,621
No one I have spoken to
has seen Kelley.

92
00:08:19,781 --> 00:08:21,781
I doubt that the Emperor
would leave behind

93
00:08:21,941 --> 00:08:24,581
the man who's offered him
eternal life.

94
00:08:24,741 --> 00:08:27,021
-He'll be here somewhere.
-What about the Book?

95
00:08:27,181 --> 00:08:31,301
As long as we reach Kelley...
he'll lead us to it.

96
00:08:31,461 --> 00:08:32,901
Or he'll bring it to us.

97
00:08:33,061 --> 00:08:35,581
Rudolf thinks the Book is key to
creating the Philosopher's Stone,

98
00:08:35,741 --> 00:08:37,381
he's won't let Kelley take it.

99
00:08:37,541 --> 00:08:38,861
Ah, you're right there.

100
00:08:39,021 --> 00:08:41,661
You see, once the Emperor
sets his heart on something,

101
00:08:41,821 --> 00:08:45,621
he'll stop at nothing to get it.
And once he has it...

102
00:08:56,461 --> 00:08:58,341
For the goddess.

103
00:09:02,901 --> 00:09:05,261
A goddess...

104
00:09:05,421 --> 00:09:07,941
I assume
that's not you, Matthew.

105
00:09:22,861 --> 00:09:25,421
It's an automaton.

106
00:09:27,061 --> 00:09:29,861
The goddess of the hunt.

107
00:09:31,501 --> 00:09:33,541
<i>What is the matter?</i>

108
00:09:33,701 --> 00:09:36,701
What's the matter? I take it you
saw how hostile the Emperor was.

109
00:09:36,861 --> 00:09:40,181
I saw how hostile
he was towards you.

110
00:09:40,341 --> 00:09:43,021
He lit up
when I mentioned alchemy.

111
00:09:44,821 --> 00:09:46,181
You saw the gift he sent me.

112
00:09:46,341 --> 00:09:49,661
He's practically inviting me
back to the castle.

113
00:09:49,821 --> 00:09:51,141
I can bring him Dee's book,

114
00:09:51,301 --> 00:09:54,581
convince him it's something
that he wants...

115
00:09:54,741 --> 00:09:58,421
No.
Kelley is the key.

116
00:09:58,581 --> 00:10:01,061
And the less we arouse
the attention of the Emperor,

117
00:10:01,221 --> 00:10:03,301
the more likely we'll be able to
get Kelley back to England safely.

118
00:10:03,461 --> 00:10:06,021
We don't even know
if he's here.

119
00:10:07,101 --> 00:10:11,861
At least, let me try
while you look for him.

120
00:10:14,461 --> 00:10:16,741
I'll take Gallowglass with me.

121
00:10:29,181 --> 00:10:32,981
Diana Roydon. I have a gift
for His Imperial Majesty.

122
00:10:33,141 --> 00:10:35,421
So does everyone,
<i>Frau </i>Roydon.

123
00:10:35,581 --> 00:10:37,421
So does everyone.

124
00:10:59,181 --> 00:11:01,541
Madame will be all right.

125
00:11:01,701 --> 00:11:03,741
Mm.

126
00:11:05,941 --> 00:11:08,541
Kelley must have
a laboratory here,

127
00:11:08,701 --> 00:11:11,981
somewhere he can continue
his work undisturbed.

128
00:11:14,141 --> 00:11:17,221
Let's take a look
at the apothecary, Pierre.

129
00:11:20,941 --> 00:11:24,261
I'm surprised Matthew let you
approach the Emperor alone.

130
00:11:24,421 --> 00:11:29,061
Well, my husband's changed a lot in
the 400 years since you knew him.

131
00:11:29,221 --> 00:11:31,061
But now you're mated.

132
00:11:32,341 --> 00:11:33,901
And it's different.

133
00:11:34,061 --> 00:11:37,621
Blood rage is harder to control,
it's primal.

134
00:11:37,781 --> 00:11:39,541
Physical.

135
00:11:40,501 --> 00:11:41,901
If provoked...

136
00:11:42,061 --> 00:11:44,741
he will struggle
to contain himself.

137
00:11:51,221 --> 00:11:55,341
Oh... we're gonna be here
till midnight at this rate.

138
00:11:55,501 --> 00:11:59,181
-Wait here.
-What are you doing?

139
00:11:59,341 --> 00:12:02,021
Accelerating proceedings.

140
00:12:12,381 --> 00:12:14,741
Madame De Clermont?

141
00:12:14,901 --> 00:12:16,861
Apologies.

142
00:12:17,021 --> 00:12:22,061
Such a recent blood vow
is positively deafening.

143
00:12:22,221 --> 00:12:23,701
I am Benjamin Fuchs.

144
00:12:23,861 --> 00:12:26,461
I work as a collector
for the Emperor.

145
00:12:26,621 --> 00:12:29,221
Are you a friend
of the de Clermonts?

146
00:12:29,381 --> 00:12:32,461
I fear I am
beneath their interest.

147
00:12:32,621 --> 00:12:35,501
I was cast out of my own clan.

148
00:12:35,661 --> 00:12:39,421
I have always found myself
more comfortable around

149
00:12:39,581 --> 00:12:41,581
other kinds of creature.

150
00:12:53,781 --> 00:12:56,461
Even for
the Emperor's alchemist?

151
00:12:57,581 --> 00:13:00,181
You are not
the Imperial alchemist.

152
00:13:00,341 --> 00:13:02,221
Ah, so,
you have met him?

153
00:13:02,381 --> 00:13:06,421
It seems strange to be closed during
the middle of the day, <i>Herr </i>Steiner.

154
00:13:06,581 --> 00:13:08,741
But then, perhaps,
you're expecting more customers

155
00:13:08,901 --> 00:13:10,261
after the sun has fallen?

156
00:13:10,421 --> 00:13:12,461
I open only by appointment, sir.

157
00:13:12,621 --> 00:13:17,221
My exclusive list of clients
command the utmost discretion.

158
00:13:17,381 --> 00:13:21,941
If you wish to browse, might I
suggest you visit the market?

159
00:13:44,061 --> 00:13:48,341
The audience with His Imperial
Majesty is over for today.

160
00:13:48,501 --> 00:13:51,221
Come out.
Keep moving.

161
00:13:51,381 --> 00:13:53,101
Keep moving.

162
00:13:56,141 --> 00:13:58,221
Auntie.
Auntie?

163
00:14:01,901 --> 00:14:03,381
What did you do?

164
00:14:03,541 --> 00:14:05,741
I may have intimated
to the Chamberlain

165
00:14:05,901 --> 00:14:09,581
that we have a very
desirable painting for sale.

166
00:14:17,821 --> 00:14:20,101
La Diosa!

167
00:14:20,261 --> 00:14:23,061
You are a woman
of many surprises.

168
00:14:23,221 --> 00:14:27,581
I hear that you are the owner of a
curious work by Hieronymous Bosch?

169
00:14:29,661 --> 00:14:31,741
You did?

170
00:14:32,661 --> 00:14:37,501
Your Majesty, I... In my haste to
be admitted to your presence, I...

171
00:14:37,661 --> 00:14:42,181
I fear there has been
some miscommunication.

172
00:14:42,341 --> 00:14:45,301
-A miscommunication?
-Yes.

173
00:14:45,461 --> 00:14:50,301
I so desperately wanted to thank you
for the wonderful gift you sent me.

174
00:14:50,461 --> 00:14:53,021
The work of Joachim Fries,
if I'm not mistaken.

175
00:14:53,181 --> 00:14:55,341
It is indeed!
You have quite an eye, mistress.

176
00:14:55,501 --> 00:15:00,181
I do not have the painting
that you wanted.

177
00:15:00,341 --> 00:15:03,301
However,
I do have another gift.

178
00:15:15,301 --> 00:15:18,541
I've seen this before.
It offers no answers, no meaning.

179
00:15:22,061 --> 00:15:23,461
So...

180
00:15:23,621 --> 00:15:26,621
You lie about something I want, in order
to present me with something I do not.

181
00:15:26,781 --> 00:15:29,221
Even books that do not provide
the answers we seek

182
00:15:29,381 --> 00:15:32,541
can still help us
to ask better questions.

183
00:15:32,701 --> 00:15:36,381
Nothing is worthless
to an enquiring mind.

184
00:15:39,061 --> 00:15:41,781
The deepest truths
always come

185
00:15:41,941 --> 00:15:45,341
from the most
unexpected sources.

186
00:15:48,061 --> 00:15:50,061
Send for the rabbi.

187
00:15:51,301 --> 00:15:52,861
Tell me, La Diosa...

188
00:15:53,021 --> 00:15:58,221
are you interested
in the rare and uncanny arts?

189
00:16:00,381 --> 00:16:03,861
Steiner was rattled.
He's hiding something.

190
00:16:04,021 --> 00:16:05,541
He clearly had met Kelley.

191
00:16:05,701 --> 00:16:07,421
He recognized
that I wasn't him.

192
00:16:07,581 --> 00:16:09,541
There's no appointments
for Kelley in his ledger.

193
00:16:09,701 --> 00:16:12,021
But there is a Talbot.
That's an English name.

194
00:16:12,181 --> 00:16:13,581
It's tenuous, I know,

195
00:16:13,741 --> 00:16:16,101
but there are no appointments
listed with him until a week ago.

196
00:16:16,261 --> 00:16:18,621
Shortly after
Rudolf arrived here.

197
00:16:18,781 --> 00:16:23,221
And every appointment with Talbot
is at an odd hour.

198
00:16:23,381 --> 00:16:26,941
-It's always after dark.
-Someone keen to avoid being seen.

199
00:16:27,101 --> 00:16:30,541
But how can we be sure
Talbot is Kelley?

200
00:16:32,021 --> 00:16:34,701
I suppose
we see for ourselves.

201
00:16:34,861 --> 00:16:37,501
Talbot has an appointment
booked for tonight.

202
00:16:39,141 --> 00:16:40,821
Thank you, Pierre.

203
00:16:45,501 --> 00:16:48,781
Allow me to introduce the Rabbi Loew,
known as The Maharal.

204
00:16:48,941 --> 00:16:52,301
A learned scholar
and my honored guest.

205
00:16:52,461 --> 00:16:54,901
The honor is mine,
Your Majesty.

206
00:16:55,061 --> 00:16:58,381
Another tome
for you to decipher.

207
00:16:58,541 --> 00:17:00,341
Come!

208
00:17:03,541 --> 00:17:05,941
The Rabbi has a gift
for ancient languages.

209
00:17:06,101 --> 00:17:07,621
The Hebrew
of his people's book

210
00:17:07,781 --> 00:17:12,021
is perhaps closer to the primitive
tongues long lost to Christian ears.

211
00:17:12,181 --> 00:17:15,141
I have no knowledge
that cannot be learned

212
00:17:15,301 --> 00:17:19,421
by anyone with sufficient
reading, Jew or Gentile.

213
00:17:20,821 --> 00:17:22,581
I cannot believe that!

214
00:17:25,381 --> 00:17:27,061
Please.

215
00:17:28,741 --> 00:17:31,981
Of course the bulk of my Kunstkammer,
I had to leave behind, in Prague.

216
00:17:32,141 --> 00:17:36,261
But the quest for knowledge
must not be abandoned.

217
00:17:38,221 --> 00:17:40,821
I hope the goddess of the hunt

218
00:17:40,981 --> 00:17:45,981
is not disappointed
with my traveling collection.

219
00:17:46,141 --> 00:17:48,861
This drinking vessel...

220
00:17:49,021 --> 00:17:52,461
...is fashioned
from the horn of a unicorn.

221
00:17:56,581 --> 00:17:58,661
Incredible.

222
00:17:58,821 --> 00:18:00,861
Entirely incredible.

223
00:18:02,221 --> 00:18:08,501
In Prague, men speak of a man of
clay, animated by Jewish magics...

224
00:18:08,661 --> 00:18:11,141
the name of God
written inside its skull.

225
00:18:11,301 --> 00:18:15,181
Rumors, Your Highness.
Designed to inspire fear of our people,

226
00:18:15,341 --> 00:18:17,661
who are nothing
but loyal subjects.

227
00:18:17,821 --> 00:18:20,181
But words have power,
do they not?

228
00:18:20,341 --> 00:18:22,461
I have heard that Jews
know the secret names of angels.

229
00:18:22,621 --> 00:18:25,621
Is that so, Your Highness?

230
00:18:25,781 --> 00:18:31,541
As the true meaning of an artwork...
is disguised by symbols...

231
00:18:31,701 --> 00:18:34,861
so might the hidden meaning
of words be revealed

232
00:18:35,021 --> 00:18:37,581
through the mathematics
of their letters.

233
00:18:37,741 --> 00:18:39,981
You have so many
miraculous items,

234
00:18:40,141 --> 00:18:43,541
things I would hardly
have believed existed.

235
00:18:43,701 --> 00:18:48,501
I half expect to find that you've
acquired the Philosopher's Stone.

236
00:18:48,661 --> 00:18:51,861
Alas. The means to create
the Philosopher's Stone

237
00:18:52,021 --> 00:18:54,101
is yet to be discovered,
La Diosa.

238
00:18:54,261 --> 00:18:56,381
Ah, the Root of Eppendorf?

239
00:18:56,541 --> 00:19:01,421
It has the miraculous form
of Jesus Christ.

240
00:19:13,301 --> 00:19:16,061
Trifle late to be shopping,
isn't it, Edward?

241
00:19:16,221 --> 00:19:18,341
Oh, and Queen Elizabeth
sends her regards.

242
00:19:18,501 --> 00:19:24,661
-What do you want from me?
-To talk. Just to talk.

243
00:19:24,821 --> 00:19:28,541
-You can stand your men down.
-They don't answer to me.

244
00:19:28,701 --> 00:19:31,821
So, you are a prisoner?

245
00:19:31,981 --> 00:19:35,821
Has the Emperor has lost patience
with your empty promises?

246
00:19:37,581 --> 00:19:41,261
You know nothing
of my work!

247
00:19:41,421 --> 00:19:44,461
I know you stole
the Book from Dee.

248
00:19:44,621 --> 00:19:47,501
No! The Book is mine.

249
00:19:47,661 --> 00:19:49,861
It speaks to me.

250
00:19:50,021 --> 00:19:52,101
It screams!

251
00:19:52,261 --> 00:19:55,261
You... You have no claim!

252
00:19:57,261 --> 00:20:01,741
It begins with absence
and desire.

253
00:20:01,901 --> 00:20:04,141
Blood and fear.

254
00:20:04,301 --> 00:20:09,101
It begins
with a discovery of witches.

255
00:20:09,261 --> 00:20:13,341
I must work.
My work!

256
00:20:25,861 --> 00:20:29,621
It's very gallant of you to escort
me all the way from our lodgings.

257
00:20:29,781 --> 00:20:31,941
I wanted to speak
to the Maharal myself.

258
00:20:32,101 --> 00:20:35,021
Rabbi Loew is one of history's
most esteemed scholars.

259
00:20:35,181 --> 00:20:37,901
Rudolf brought him here
specifically to decipher books.

260
00:20:38,061 --> 00:20:41,181
Diana...
Kelly was raving.

261
00:20:41,341 --> 00:20:43,741
Rudolf has him as his prisoner. Just...

262
00:20:43,901 --> 00:20:45,621
Be careful what you say.

263
00:20:45,781 --> 00:20:47,421
Whatever rumors
Gallowglass has heard,

264
00:20:47,581 --> 00:20:51,101
Rudolf has been nothing
but kind to me.

265
00:20:52,341 --> 00:20:55,061
We can trust Loew.
I'm sure of it.

266
00:21:02,101 --> 00:21:04,581
Matthew, son of Philippe.

267
00:21:04,741 --> 00:21:06,061
Please.

268
00:21:10,541 --> 00:21:12,621
Thank you.

269
00:21:15,781 --> 00:21:22,381
A witch, a vampire and a Jew,
meeting in secret.

270
00:21:22,541 --> 00:21:26,981
It would set Christian tongues
wagging for miles around.

271
00:21:33,301 --> 00:21:35,221
Oh...

272
00:21:36,501 --> 00:21:38,741
I noticed a yellow circle.

273
00:21:39,981 --> 00:21:43,861
Men fear what they do not
see more than what they do.

274
00:21:44,021 --> 00:21:47,661
The Emperor is convinced
my people hoard secret magics.

275
00:21:47,821 --> 00:21:52,621
Rudolf brought you here
to study a book, didn't he?

276
00:21:52,781 --> 00:21:56,061
Your husband believes that is
a dangerous question to ask.

277
00:21:56,221 --> 00:21:58,981
One should find wholeness
in a marriage, Matthew.

278
00:21:59,141 --> 00:22:02,021
But it should
never become a prison.

279
00:22:02,181 --> 00:22:04,861
Let us be honest
with each other, Maharal.

280
00:22:05,021 --> 00:22:08,981
We are looking for a very
particular alchemical book.

281
00:22:10,021 --> 00:22:11,461
I knew as soon as I saw it,

282
00:22:11,621 --> 00:22:15,341
I was not the one
God has chosen to read it.

283
00:22:15,501 --> 00:22:18,901
Perhaps you are, <i>Frau </i>Roydon?

284
00:22:19,061 --> 00:22:23,661
Rabbi, how did you convince
Rudolf to let you see it?

285
00:22:23,821 --> 00:22:25,381
He convinced himself,

286
00:22:25,541 --> 00:22:28,421
imagining I would succeed
where others had failed.

287
00:22:28,581 --> 00:22:30,341
He will be furious
when I cannot.

288
00:22:30,501 --> 00:22:32,501
Why not just tell him?

289
00:22:32,661 --> 00:22:37,901
<i>Frau </i>Roydon, to disappoint
the Emperor is dangerous.

290
00:22:38,061 --> 00:22:40,901
But to refuse him
could be deadly.

291
00:22:46,101 --> 00:22:48,381
No, I'm done.

292
00:22:48,541 --> 00:22:51,861
Jack, you cheaters won again.

293
00:22:54,101 --> 00:22:55,621
A letter came.

294
00:22:55,781 --> 00:22:58,981
-Oh, yes.
-For Mistress Roydon.

295
00:22:59,141 --> 00:23:00,461
Oh...

296
00:23:02,661 --> 00:23:05,661
It's a summons
to a pheasant hunt.

297
00:23:05,821 --> 00:23:07,861
-With the Emperor.
-Can I come?

298
00:23:08,021 --> 00:23:12,341
Give them a moment to talk, Jack.
Come on.

299
00:23:14,221 --> 00:23:17,661
This has gone too far.

300
00:23:17,821 --> 00:23:20,901
Kelley won't bring us the Book.
We need to go through Rudolf.

301
00:23:21,061 --> 00:23:23,701
-He let Rabbi Loew read it.
-And when the Rabbi fails...

302
00:23:23,861 --> 00:23:26,341
Rudolf will imprison you
like Kelley, or worse.

303
00:23:26,501 --> 00:23:27,901
But I can read it.

304
00:23:28,061 --> 00:23:30,341
All I have to do is
convince Rudolf to let me try.

305
00:23:30,501 --> 00:23:33,021
And what then?
He won't give up the Book.

306
00:23:33,181 --> 00:23:34,821
He will lock you away with it.
His new curiosity.

307
00:23:34,981 --> 00:23:37,581
You just don't like
the way he's around me.

308
00:23:37,741 --> 00:23:40,581
-You have to trust me.
-This is not a matter of trust.

309
00:23:40,741 --> 00:23:44,741
Then let me try!
What other plan do you have?

310
00:23:44,901 --> 00:23:46,981
I've got one.

311
00:23:50,741 --> 00:23:53,181
Both of you join
the Emperor's hunt.

312
00:23:53,341 --> 00:23:56,181
I think I can get into
the kunstkammer annex.

313
00:23:56,341 --> 00:23:57,701
The Book must be
in there somewhere.

314
00:23:57,861 --> 00:23:59,621
If I can steal it,
we can all get out of here

315
00:23:59,781 --> 00:24:01,341
before Rudolf
even knows it's gone.

316
00:24:01,501 --> 00:24:04,861
And what are the Queen's
interests? We need Kelley.

317
00:24:06,301 --> 00:24:07,941
Without the Book,

318
00:24:08,101 --> 00:24:11,661
Rudolf won't have
any use for poor Edward.

319
00:24:21,421 --> 00:24:23,021
Strange.

320
00:24:23,181 --> 00:24:28,261
I only required <i>Frau </i>Roydon's
presence. Not yours.

321
00:24:28,421 --> 00:24:30,501
My apologies.

322
00:24:30,661 --> 00:24:33,861
I simply cannot resist falconry.

323
00:24:34,021 --> 00:24:38,341
Then I suppose we must
find you an appropriate bird.

324
00:24:45,821 --> 00:24:49,661
Artemis, as the Greeks
called Diana.

325
00:24:52,701 --> 00:24:56,661
I cannot say which of you I
should rather hunt with.

326
00:24:57,661 --> 00:25:00,941
Artemis will be mine, Matthaus.

327
00:25:04,741 --> 00:25:07,741
Sarka will be your bird.

328
00:25:11,541 --> 00:25:14,701
-So, she's a warrior then.
-Yes.

329
00:25:14,861 --> 00:25:19,221
During the Maiden's War,
Sarka destroyed an entire battalion

330
00:25:19,381 --> 00:25:21,821
by herself.

331
00:25:21,981 --> 00:25:23,621
You flatter me, Your Majesty.

332
00:25:23,781 --> 00:25:26,501
Success in the hunt relies
on the skill of the falconer,

333
00:25:26,661 --> 00:25:30,061
not the wiles
of his bird, Matthaus.

334
00:25:34,941 --> 00:25:36,861
Play nice.

335
00:27:42,381 --> 00:27:45,061
Well done, Your Majesty.

336
00:27:45,221 --> 00:27:47,541
Has Rabbi Loew looked
at the book I gave you yet?

337
00:27:47,701 --> 00:27:50,181
The rabbi has been busy.

338
00:27:50,341 --> 00:27:51,661
With other books?

339
00:27:51,821 --> 00:27:54,981
I fear the Rabbi's learning has
been somewhat exaggerated.

340
00:27:55,141 --> 00:27:58,421
Ask no more
about him or his books.

341
00:27:59,981 --> 00:28:02,901
You have been slow
to loose Sarka, Matthaus.

342
00:28:03,061 --> 00:28:04,941
Afraid to let your bird fly free,

343
00:28:05,101 --> 00:28:08,141
lest she find a more
comfortable place to roost?

344
00:28:10,061 --> 00:28:13,661
I have some experience with
alchemical texts myself.

345
00:28:13,821 --> 00:28:18,381
Yes, you are
an intriguing case, <i>Frau </i>Roydon.

346
00:28:18,541 --> 00:28:22,901
An alchemist and a witch,
and supposedly married to a vampire.

347
00:28:23,061 --> 00:28:26,261
Don't you find his touch
a little cold?

348
00:28:27,341 --> 00:28:28,741
You jest, Your Majesty.

349
00:28:28,901 --> 00:28:32,581
Do you not sometimes wish for
something warmer in your bed?

350
00:28:38,501 --> 00:28:40,781
Release!

351
00:29:27,181 --> 00:29:29,501
You broke my bird!

352
00:29:30,621 --> 00:29:32,741
-Your Majesty, my husband...
-Begone!

353
00:29:32,901 --> 00:29:35,581
You have abused
my kindness monstrously.

354
00:29:35,741 --> 00:29:40,621
Agents! Spies!
I want you gone from my lands!

355
00:29:53,421 --> 00:29:57,941
The Book wasn't there,
but I found something else.

356
00:30:00,021 --> 00:30:01,941
Rudolf's secret collection.

357
00:30:05,221 --> 00:30:07,421
That hand belonged to a witch.

358
00:30:10,621 --> 00:30:12,981
It was in a box with
a necklace of wearh teeth.

359
00:30:13,141 --> 00:30:18,461
The preserved brain of some poor
demon... Bits of creatures.

360
00:30:20,061 --> 00:30:23,541
That's it.
We leave tonight.

361
00:30:23,701 --> 00:30:26,941
-What about the Book?
-Enough of the Book!

362
00:30:31,861 --> 00:30:33,581
I'll...

363
00:30:41,941 --> 00:30:44,581
If you're angry at me,
just say it.

364
00:30:44,741 --> 00:30:48,101
-You are never to see him again.
-Don't fake, Matthew!

365
00:30:48,261 --> 00:30:49,701
Why don't you trust me?

366
00:30:49,861 --> 00:30:51,381
You don't understand.
I don't trust myself.

367
00:30:51,541 --> 00:30:53,461
Then let me speak
to Rudolf alone.

368
00:30:53,621 --> 00:30:55,501
I cannot!

369
00:30:55,661 --> 00:30:57,141
I cannot...

370
00:30:58,421 --> 00:31:00,541
I can smell him on you.

371
00:31:04,421 --> 00:31:08,501
This is why I lied to you.
This is what mating is.

372
00:31:08,661 --> 00:31:12,421
An unspeakable urge
to possess you, body and soul.

373
00:31:14,101 --> 00:31:16,541
The rage that feeds on it.

374
00:31:21,181 --> 00:31:23,501
It's all right, Matthew.

375
00:31:25,901 --> 00:31:28,341
You have never seen
what it makes me do.

376
00:31:30,741 --> 00:31:33,421
You won't hurt me.

377
00:31:39,141 --> 00:31:42,381
No! Not you.

378
00:31:42,541 --> 00:31:44,901
For you.

379
00:31:45,061 --> 00:31:47,141
I would wade through
the blood of kings,

380
00:31:47,301 --> 00:31:50,421
queens and emperors.
I would stop at nothing

381
00:31:50,581 --> 00:31:53,981
to prevent that
from happening to you.

382
00:31:56,541 --> 00:31:58,741
Matthew...

383
00:32:03,261 --> 00:32:05,021
We're still talking.

384
00:32:05,181 --> 00:32:07,061
Let me go...

385
00:32:11,021 --> 00:32:14,981
You are not defined by
the worst things you have done.

386
00:32:15,141 --> 00:32:17,421
You are my husband.

387
00:32:18,541 --> 00:32:22,021
And the most
brilliant man I know.

388
00:32:23,341 --> 00:32:25,341
You are kind.

389
00:32:27,821 --> 00:32:29,541
And gentle.

390
00:32:36,781 --> 00:32:38,821
Come back to me.

391
00:32:47,661 --> 00:32:51,021
You are Matthew de Clermont.

392
00:32:51,181 --> 00:32:52,941
And stronger than this.

393
00:33:43,061 --> 00:33:45,781
The Emperor sends his apologies

394
00:33:45,941 --> 00:33:49,781
and summons you both
to view the kunstkammer.

395
00:33:54,981 --> 00:33:56,901
We have to go.

396
00:33:57,941 --> 00:34:00,341
Tell Pierre to bring
Francoise and Jack,

397
00:34:00,501 --> 00:34:04,461
and enough horses for all of us
to the main gates by nightfall.

398
00:34:04,621 --> 00:34:07,661
It's very likely we'll be
leaving in a hurry.

399
00:34:26,541 --> 00:34:28,621
Your Majesty,
may I apologize...

400
00:34:28,781 --> 00:34:30,901
Nonsense, nonsense.

401
00:34:32,501 --> 00:34:35,141
It was all just sport! Please...

402
00:34:39,381 --> 00:34:41,621
A medicinal.

403
00:34:41,781 --> 00:34:44,621
The horn renders it
twice as efficacious.

404
00:35:09,301 --> 00:35:13,181
-Exquisite, is it not?
-Hmm.

405
00:35:13,341 --> 00:35:15,861
It represents the serpent
in the Garden,

406
00:35:16,021 --> 00:35:17,861
reminding us to be watchful

407
00:35:18,021 --> 00:35:21,421
for the poison tongue
of flatterers and deceivers.

408
00:35:22,421 --> 00:35:25,821
Is there part of your collection
you keep from the public eye?

409
00:35:27,341 --> 00:35:30,621
Is there something in particular
you wish to see?

410
00:35:32,781 --> 00:35:35,381
I hear you possess a book,

411
00:35:35,541 --> 00:35:38,501
one that contains the secrets of

412
00:35:38,661 --> 00:35:40,541
life itself.

413
00:35:43,221 --> 00:35:46,621
Lately, La Diosa,

414
00:35:46,781 --> 00:35:51,261
my trust and generosity
has been much abused

415
00:35:51,421 --> 00:35:54,861
by dissemblers
and liars.

416
00:36:03,141 --> 00:36:05,421
Many of you expressed surprise

417
00:36:05,581 --> 00:36:09,541
when I invited a Jewish mystic
into my court.

418
00:36:09,701 --> 00:36:12,421
But you need not have worried.

419
00:36:12,581 --> 00:36:15,701
This Jew has no arcane talent
beyond the typical low cunning

420
00:36:15,861 --> 00:36:17,861
of his people.

421
00:36:23,301 --> 00:36:26,101
Is that not so, Rabbi?

422
00:36:27,541 --> 00:36:29,621
As you say, Your Majesty.

423
00:36:32,581 --> 00:36:35,021
Get this deceiver
out of my sight.

424
00:36:41,941 --> 00:36:43,421
If I did have this book
you speak of,

425
00:36:43,581 --> 00:36:45,021
why would I give it to you?

426
00:36:45,181 --> 00:36:48,701
A prying English spy
and charlatan?

427
00:37:07,301 --> 00:37:09,101
I am no charlatan.

428
00:37:21,901 --> 00:37:23,661
You...

429
00:37:23,821 --> 00:37:26,341
You are magnificent.

430
00:37:26,501 --> 00:37:30,381
Anything you want, anything,
anything, name it.

431
00:37:30,541 --> 00:37:32,381
Show me the Book.

432
00:38:21,141 --> 00:38:22,581
This is an outrage.

433
00:38:22,741 --> 00:38:26,501
Kelley is an Englishman
under the Queen's protection.

434
00:38:26,661 --> 00:38:28,541
You had your chance. Edward.

435
00:38:28,701 --> 00:38:31,501
-Let La Diosa see the book.
-No.

436
00:39:00,021 --> 00:39:02,461
It is screaming.

437
00:39:02,621 --> 00:39:05,861
It won't stop screaming

438
00:39:06,021 --> 00:39:07,781
in my head!

439
00:39:17,541 --> 00:39:19,941
It is screaming.

440
00:39:22,101 --> 00:39:25,861
You may have Kelley, Shadow.
I no longer need him.

441
00:39:26,021 --> 00:39:30,981
I have found something
much more precious.

442
00:39:42,261 --> 00:39:44,341
The Book!

443
00:39:45,781 --> 00:39:48,781
It won't
stop screaming.

444
00:39:48,941 --> 00:39:50,261
No!

445
00:39:50,421 --> 00:39:52,261
Give me the book.

446
00:39:56,781 --> 00:39:58,901
Lock it! This way!

447
00:39:59,061 --> 00:40:01,901
Stop them!

448
00:40:47,301 --> 00:40:48,861
Go! Let's go!

449
00:40:56,581 --> 00:40:58,701
-Where is Jack?
-Francoise is waiting with him,

450
00:40:58,861 --> 00:41:01,021
two miles north.

451
00:41:01,181 --> 00:41:02,821
Pierre.

452
00:41:08,181 --> 00:41:10,261
This book is made
from the skin of creatures.

453
00:41:10,421 --> 00:41:12,941
-Matthew...
-Witches', daemons, vampires...

454
00:41:13,101 --> 00:41:15,941
The ink is made from our blood. The
pages are bound together with our hair.

455
00:41:16,101 --> 00:41:18,461
I'm sorry, Diana, but this is more
like a book of death.

456
00:41:18,621 --> 00:41:21,021
Matthew, we have to go.

457
00:41:34,141 --> 00:41:37,261
Absence and desire.

458
00:41:38,541 --> 00:41:41,101
Blood and fear...

459
00:41:43,981 --> 00:41:48,461
I can still hear the book
screaming.

460
00:41:48,621 --> 00:41:51,981
Quiet!
No one cares about your book.

461
00:42:15,021 --> 00:42:18,021
I care about your book,

462
00:42:18,181 --> 00:42:19,581
Edward.

463
00:42:23,941 --> 00:42:27,021
Most of the items
from Rudolf II's kunstkammer

464
00:42:27,181 --> 00:42:30,101
now reside in different
collections across the world.

465
00:42:30,261 --> 00:42:33,941
But here we have some of the writings
made by the English alchemist

466
00:42:34,101 --> 00:42:36,381
Edward Kelley
while he was imprisoned.

467
00:42:36,541 --> 00:42:38,861
Most are illegible however.

468
00:42:39,021 --> 00:42:41,861
And the mysterious
"Screaming Book" he mentions

469
00:42:42,021 --> 00:42:45,101
has never been
conclusively identified.

470
00:43:01,821 --> 00:43:04,661
Edward Kelly claims to have
bequeathed a single page

471
00:43:04,821 --> 00:43:06,541
to each of the three species.

472
00:43:06,701 --> 00:43:08,021
<i>If we could fine one.</i>

473
00:43:08,181 --> 00:43:10,381
Becca, what are you
trying to tell us?

474
00:43:10,541 --> 00:43:13,101
This is the property of
Knights of Lazarus.

475
00:43:13,261 --> 00:43:15,261
I am Grandmaster of the Knights.

476
00:43:15,421 --> 00:43:17,381
And I'm Princess Leia.

477
00:43:17,541 --> 00:43:20,741
...where you will find
the questions.

478
00:43:20,901 --> 00:43:22,621
Sorry, I didn't mean
to startle you.

479
00:43:22,781 --> 00:43:24,501
I trust you're here
with solid information.

480
00:43:24,661 --> 00:43:27,101
I've established a connection
I think will interest you.

481
00:43:27,261 --> 00:43:30,021
A baby, a witch born to daemons.

482
00:43:30,181 --> 00:43:34,421
If this is true,
the witches are with the child.

483
00:43:34,581 --> 00:43:36,261
I'd hate to assume you a part

484
00:43:36,421 --> 00:43:39,021
of some de Clermont conspiracy
involving blood rage.

485
00:43:39,181 --> 00:43:42,581
Whatever you know,
you should tell me. Now.
