00:00:04,787 --> 00:00:05,657
Talon, you will love
being part of the United.

00:00:05,701 --> 00:00:06,745
- United?
- [ screaming ]

00:00:08,617 --> 00:00:10,314
Talon,
you should be joining us,
not fighting us.

00:00:13,361 --> 00:00:15,406
You've killed her!

00:00:15,450 --> 00:00:17,321
No, it's not possible.

8
00:00:21,238 --> 00:00:23,197
And what brings you
all this way?
9
00:00:23,240 --> 00:00:25,634
We've come to bring peace
to your village.
10
00:00:28,811 --> 00:00:32,119
We'll find a way to stop
Yavalla from turning us
all into her puppets,
11
00:00:32,162 --> 00:00:33,642
but we need
to do it together.

Talon! Talon! Talon!
13
00:01:00,321 --> 00:01:01,452
Keep your distance.
14
00:01:05,717 --> 00:01:07,850
Greetings, friends.
15
00:01:07,893 --> 00:01:09,808
We're looking for
Queen Rosmund.
16
00:01:09,852 --> 00:01:12,072
We believe she
and Baron Aegisford
may have passed this way.
17
00:01:12,115 --> 00:01:15,292
Queen Rosmund
shared her message
of peace with us.
18
00:01:15,336 --> 00:01:18,513
- We were joined with her.
- Well, that confirms it then.
19
00:01:18,556 --> 00:01:20,471
This thing has already
spread throughout the Realm.
20
00:01:22,647 --> 00:01:24,388
You are the traitors.
21
00:01:24,432 --> 00:01:27,043
The traitors
from the Outpost.
22
00:01:27,087 --> 00:01:28,697
We were warned about you.
23
00:01:28,740 --> 00:01:30,916
Should I send in the Lu-Qiri
to kill them all?
24
00:01:30,960 --> 00:01:33,484
Why would we do that?
They haven't done
anything wrong.
25
00:01:33,528 --> 00:01:36,139
- They're possessed.
- They're people.
26
00:01:36,183 --> 00:01:38,794
- We can't just massacre them.
- No, she's right.
27
00:01:38,837 --> 00:01:41,188
None of them chose
to be infected by a kinj.
28
00:01:41,231 --> 00:01:43,146
If we don't do something soon,
they're just gonna spread it
even further.
29
00:01:43,190 --> 00:01:44,669
So we should just go around
killing everyone
30
00:01:44,713 --> 00:01:46,149
unlucky enough to come
in contact with a kinj?
31
00:01:46,193 --> 00:01:48,978
By the looks of things,
you'd have to kill hundreds,
32
00:01:49,021 --> 00:01:52,068
if not thousands
to keep it from spreading.
33
00:01:52,112 --> 00:01:53,722
Greetings, Talon.
34
00:01:53,765 --> 00:01:57,204
Glad to see
you're in good health.
35
00:01:57,247 --> 00:01:59,858
- I don't know you.
- If you could only experience
36
00:01:59,902 --> 00:02:05,081
what it's like
to be united with so many
in complete harmony.
37
00:02:05,125 --> 00:02:08,171
- I tried to share it with you.
- Yavalla.
38
00:02:08,215 --> 00:02:10,478
Wonder how far away she can be
and still talk through them.
39
00:02:10,521 --> 00:02:14,612
There's no distance
I can travel and not be
connected to the United.
40
00:02:14,656 --> 00:02:17,833
Why are you doing this?
These people are innocent.
41
00:02:17,876 --> 00:02:19,965
Their lives were
without meaning.
42
00:02:20,009 --> 00:02:23,099
A never-ending cycle
of poverty,

44
00:02:24,796 --> 00:02:30,106
Now, they only know
unity and peace.
45
00:02:30,150 --> 00:02:34,850
- This is not peace.
- There's no enmity
between them
46
00:02:34,893 --> 00:02:36,678
and they're happy.
47
00:02:36,721 --> 00:02:40,247
Is that not
the very definition of peace?
48
00:02:40,290 --> 00:02:44,033
I've been watching
Janzo and Wren.
49
00:02:44,076 --> 00:02:46,775
- Janzo was right.
- [ chuckles ]
50
00:02:46,818 --> 00:02:48,603
Would you pass Wren a message,
please?
51
00:02:48,646 --> 00:02:53,477
Tell her I approve
her choice in mate
52
00:02:53,521 --> 00:02:56,959
and I expect them both
to come and join me soon.
53
00:02:59,483 --> 00:03:01,311
We're too late to stop it
from spreading.
54
00:03:01,355 --> 00:03:03,139
This is already out of hand.
55
00:03:03,183 --> 00:03:05,097
We should get back
to the Outpost,

00:03:05,141 --> 00:03:06,664

for the uninfected
57
00:03:06,708 --> 00:03:08,231
until Janzo and Wren
can come up with something.
58
00:03:08,275 --> 00:03:09,537
That's a bad idea, Talon.
59
00:03:09,580 --> 00:03:11,278
Do you want
to take charge, Zed?
60
00:03:11,321 --> 00:03:12,583
Because I didn't ask
for the job.
61
00:03:12,627 --> 00:03:15,325
No, no.
People picked you to lead.
62
00:03:15,369 --> 00:03:16,587
Then let me lead.

- No one got infected out there?
- We had eyes on all.
67
00:03:45,921 --> 00:03:48,924
Seems just a little risky
to let anyone back in
except for Talon and Zed.
68
00:03:50,665 --> 00:03:52,275
How are you feeling today,
Garret?
69
00:03:52,319 --> 00:03:53,755
- Pretty bad.
- Good.
70
00:03:53,798 --> 00:03:57,149
It means you're
not infected... yet.
71
00:03:57,193 --> 00:03:59,108
Send word to Gertrusha
in Aegisford.
72
00:03:59,151 --> 00:04:00,283
Tell them to shut their gates.
73
00:04:00,327 --> 00:04:02,764
They need to go into
complete lockdown.
74
00:04:02,807 --> 00:04:04,287
Should I tell them why?
75
00:04:06,898 --> 00:04:08,987
Tell them there's
a new plague.
76
00:04:09,031 --> 00:04:11,555
And put out word to anyone
who can't lock down their town.

Tell them they can seek refuge
at the Outpost.

00:04:15,037 --> 00:04:17,344
Talon, are you sure
that's wise?
79
00:04:17,387 --> 00:04:20,303
Shouldn't we lock our own gates,
not let more people in?
80
00:04:20,347 --> 00:04:23,306
Do we even know if everyone
who's already her is free
of the infection?
81
00:04:23,350 --> 00:04:26,266
- No. No, we don't, do we?
- You both sound like Zed.
82
00:04:26,309 --> 00:04:28,920
We need all the manpower
we can get.
83
00:04:28,964 --> 00:04:31,358
We need to protect as many
uninfected people as we can.
84
00:04:31,401 --> 00:04:33,360
Right, well,
if we're going to allow people
to take refuge here,
85
00:04:33,403 --> 00:04:35,492
we need to figure out
a better way to detect
who's infected.

00:04:35,536 --> 00:04:38,016
- So, get on that.
- Sure.

I mean, Wren and I were busy
trying to find a cure,

two things at once.

is ready to pass it.

Oh, yeah. Me, too.
Never wanted to disappoint her.

00:09:23,693 --> 00:09:26,870
Talon. This is crazy.
170
00:09:26,914 --> 00:09:30,091
Yes. But I didn't ask to be
making these decisions, okay?
171
00:09:30,134 --> 00:09:32,572
You pushed me into it.
So if you have a better plan,
I'm listening.
172
00:09:35,923 --> 00:09:39,666
There are no good choices, Zed,
just bad and worse.
173
00:09:39,709 --> 00:09:41,798
So until Janzo comes up
with a better solution,
174
00:09:41,842 --> 00:09:44,322
we're saving as many
uninfected people as we can.
175
00:09:44,366 --> 00:09:46,890
If you'd have let me kill
the first batch like I said
when we had the chance,
176
00:09:46,934 --> 00:09:48,675
then we wouldn't be
in this mess.
177
00:09:48,718 --> 00:09:51,547
You're the one who forced me
to summon Yavalla to this world,
178
00:09:51,591 --> 00:09:53,810
so don't be so quick
to judge my decisions now.
179
00:09:57,901 --> 00:10:02,340
Ooh. Yeah, this is nice.
This is gonna be good.
180
00:10:02,384 --> 00:10:05,648
I'll let you have a turn
with the net after this one.
181
00:10:05,692 --> 00:10:08,216
I don't want to hog
all the fun myself.
182
00:10:08,259 --> 00:10:09,870
It's all right.
You go ahead.
183
00:10:09,913 --> 00:10:11,959
Take as many turns
as you like.
184
00:10:12,002 --> 00:10:14,962
Oh, right.
185
00:10:15,005 --> 00:10:17,660
Rats is too low an occupation
for a lady like you.
186
00:10:17,704 --> 00:10:20,184
Have you tried
cleaning chamber pots?
187
00:10:20,228 --> 00:10:21,708
No.
188
00:10:23,361 --> 00:10:25,973
Ooh. There's another one.
189
00:10:27,714 --> 00:10:29,759
Ooh, lots of rats
over here!
190
00:10:42,032 --> 00:10:43,947
[ screaming ]
191
00:11:05,447 --> 00:11:08,102
Looks like a female hand.
192
00:11:08,145 --> 00:11:11,105
Do you think it was murder?
193
00:11:11,148 --> 00:11:13,542
If you see someone walking
around with one hand
194
00:11:13,585 --> 00:11:16,327
and no blood, let me know.
195
00:11:16,371 --> 00:11:20,723
But otherwise, yes.
196
00:11:20,767 --> 00:11:22,072
Yes, I think it was murder.
197
00:11:22,116 --> 00:11:24,205
Well, what happened
to the rest of her?
198
00:11:24,248 --> 00:11:27,774
- It was taken by animals?
- Could be.
199
00:11:27,817 --> 00:11:29,166
You ever seen
that symbol before?
200
00:11:29,210 --> 00:11:33,431
- Yes.
- What is it, Talon?
201
00:11:33,475 --> 00:11:35,651
It was burnt onto a wall
in our village.
202
00:11:35,695 --> 00:11:37,827
Every time they removed it,
it would reappear.
203
00:11:37,871 --> 00:11:39,786
What's it a symbol for?
204
00:11:39,829 --> 00:11:42,571
I don't know.
205
00:11:42,614 --> 00:11:44,660
Every time
I asked my mother about it,
206
00:11:44,704 --> 00:11:47,141
she'd get nervous
and change the subject.
207
00:11:47,184 --> 00:11:50,144
Wonder if whoever
put it on that wall
208
00:11:50,187 --> 00:11:52,973
also put it on this one?
209
00:12:00,850 --> 00:12:05,463
There's at least three sets
of boot prints,
210
00:12:05,507 --> 00:12:09,032
and one,
a crack in the heel.
211
00:12:10,512 --> 00:12:14,951
It looks like
they were stood here
212
00:12:14,995 --> 00:12:17,519
and facing this way.
213
00:12:18,650 --> 00:12:20,478
You're smart with this stuff.
214
00:12:20,522 --> 00:12:22,132
You learned that
from your dad the Marshal?
215
00:12:22,176 --> 00:12:25,222
No. No, I'm no Wythers.
216
00:12:25,266 --> 00:12:27,355
He was a great detective.
217
00:12:27,398 --> 00:12:31,533
You seem to have picked up
a thing or two from him,
218
00:12:31,576 --> 00:12:34,884
which is why I'm putting you
in charge of finding out
who did this.
219
00:12:34,928 --> 00:12:38,148
What? No.
You-- you need my help
with the infection.
220
00:12:38,192 --> 00:12:40,455
How exactly can you help
with that?
221
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:44,807
All right, point taken.
222
00:12:44,851 --> 00:12:47,984
Munt, do me a favor.
Take that hand to Janzo.
223
00:12:48,028 --> 00:12:50,378
Maybe he can come up
with some ideas.
224
00:12:50,421 --> 00:12:52,815
That is just what Marshal
would have had me done.
225
00:12:56,863 --> 00:12:59,866
I wish he were alive today
to figure this one out.
226
00:13:01,650 --> 00:13:02,651
Something I said?
227
00:13:05,219 --> 00:13:07,830
I don't think he likes
to be reminded of Wythers.
228
00:13:07,874 --> 00:13:09,136
Brings back all his guilt.
229
00:13:24,847 --> 00:13:26,762
Should we maybe
cover up this cage?
230
00:13:26,806 --> 00:13:29,547
- Your mother could be watching.
- Let her.
231
00:13:32,420 --> 00:13:36,554
- Hey, Mother, watch this.
- Hm? Hm?
232
00:13:40,776 --> 00:13:43,387
Yeah, I don't think
she's watching us.
233
00:13:43,431 --> 00:13:47,174
Um, by now there are thousands
that are infected.
234
00:13:47,217 --> 00:13:49,698
I mean,
even the most brilliant mind,
mine for example,
235
00:13:49,741 --> 00:13:51,874
wouldn't be able to sort
the vision from that many eyes
236
00:13:51,918 --> 00:13:54,181
or even the sound
from that many ears.
237
00:13:54,224 --> 00:13:56,574
She must limit
her exposure somehow.
238
00:13:56,618 --> 00:13:59,099
Well, maybe she just tries
to connect to one or two members
of the hive at a time,
239
00:13:59,142 --> 00:14:01,405
just the ones she needs
in that moment.
240
00:14:04,887 --> 00:14:07,629
- How long has it been?
- Almost ten turns of the glass.
241
00:14:07,672 --> 00:14:09,326
That's just over twice a day.
242
00:14:09,370 --> 00:14:11,415
My mathematical predictions
are almost perfect.
243
00:14:16,072 --> 00:14:17,769
Garret wants me
to give you a hand.
244
00:14:17,813 --> 00:14:19,380
Thanks, Munt, but I don't
need a hand right now.
245
00:14:19,423 --> 00:14:22,731
So, even if we say that
four people come into the t--
246
00:14:22,774 --> 00:14:24,820
- [ muttering ]
- No, Munt.
247
00:14:24,864 --> 00:14:27,127
Four of the infected
come into a town.
248
00:14:27,170 --> 00:14:30,521
And then they then pass on
their kinj every time one
becomes infected.
249
00:14:30,565 --> 00:14:32,175
- And that's 16 after a day.
- No, look.
250
00:14:32,219 --> 00:14:35,526
Not now, Munt.
And then after two days, 64.
251
00:14:35,570 --> 00:14:38,268
- No, the thing is--
- And after three days, well,
that's more than 250.
252
00:14:38,312 --> 00:14:40,705
That's more than we can handle.
I mean, 'cause after one week--
253
00:14:40,749 --> 00:14:44,753
65,536. Gods above.
254
00:14:44,796 --> 00:14:46,973
That's more people than even
live in the Capital.

00:14:47,016 --> 00:14:48,670
- [ clears throat ]
- Both: What?
256
00:14:48,713 --> 00:14:51,891
- Oh!
- Someone's been murdered.
257
00:14:51,934 --> 00:14:54,023
That's the victim's hand.
Garret says have a look,
258
00:14:54,067 --> 00:14:56,330
- see if you can
find any clues.
- Murdered?
259
00:14:56,373 --> 00:14:59,202
- Who was killed?
- I think that's what Garret
wants you to find out.
260
00:14:59,246 --> 00:15:00,769
- All that's left is that hand.
- No.
261
00:15:00,812 --> 00:15:02,379
No, I don't have time for this.
262
00:15:02,423 --> 00:15:03,946
I'm trying to save
the bloody world!
263
00:15:03,990 --> 00:15:05,905
Well, you tell that
to Garret then.
264
00:15:05,948 --> 00:15:08,385
Right.
You deal with this.
265
00:15:08,429 --> 00:15:09,996
I'll go back to finding a way
to kill the kinj.
266
00:15:10,039 --> 00:15:11,911
Just infect some more rats.
267
00:15:11,954 --> 00:15:15,349
I'll be finished by then
and then we can run
some experiments.
268
00:15:18,482 --> 00:15:19,962
I never thought infecting rats
269
00:15:20,006 --> 00:15:22,965
would be the less disgusting
thing to work on.

[ squeaking ]

00:15:24,967 --> 00:15:27,100
Gods, look how eager it is
272
00:15:27,143 --> 00:15:28,318
to pass the kinj on
to the others.
273
00:15:28,362 --> 00:15:29,929
What?
274
00:15:32,844 --> 00:15:36,109
- That's it.
- What's it?
275
00:15:38,502 --> 00:15:40,200
We need a box
with a window on one side.
276
00:15:42,724 --> 00:15:47,207
Wren? You are a genius.
277
00:15:47,250 --> 00:15:49,949
That's what I've been trying
to tell you since we met.
278
00:15:54,170 --> 00:15:55,911
This is ridiculous.
279
00:15:55,955 --> 00:15:57,478
A rat doesn't know
who's infected or not.
280
00:15:57,521 --> 00:15:59,654
It's actually
really quite simple.
281
00:15:59,697 --> 00:16:01,743
The infected rat's
biological imperative is
to keep spreading kinjes.
282
00:16:01,786 --> 00:16:04,050
And this one
is particularly ripe.
283
00:16:04,093 --> 00:16:05,921
So the longer
he doesn't pass it on,
the more pain he's in.
284
00:16:05,965 --> 00:16:07,923
So he's desperate to spread
the kinjes to someone
285
00:16:07,967 --> 00:16:09,533
apart from those
who are already infected.
286
00:16:09,577 --> 00:16:11,318
So the people he ignores
already have a kinj?
287
00:16:11,361 --> 00:16:12,362
Exactly.

Good work, you two.
From now on we use this device

00:17:28,047 --> 00:17:29,787
to check every person
before letting them in.
297
00:17:29,831 --> 00:17:31,528
We should check the Outpost
at least once a day.
298
00:17:31,572 --> 00:17:33,400
That's how we stop it
from spreading inside.
299
00:17:33,443 --> 00:17:35,837
Guess we make a few more
of these, then.
300
00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:37,926
Teach the soldiers
how to use them and get them
to check these people again.
301
00:17:37,969 --> 00:17:39,014

- Hm?

Easy for her to say.

You know, if you think about it,
maybe it's not so bad.
305
00:17:51,070 --> 00:17:53,594
- What?
- Having one of
Yavalla's kinjes.
306
00:17:53,637 --> 00:17:56,031
I mean, the infected
seem happy and content.

What are you talking about?
They're worse than slaves.
308

If she wants
to make them do something,
they have no choice.
309
00:18:01,645 --> 00:18:03,169
- Maybe they don't mind it.
- Well, so first you want
310
00:18:03,212 --> 00:18:04,779
to kill them all,
now you want to be one of them.
311
00:18:04,822 --> 00:18:06,650
I guess I'm just struggling
to understand it all, Talon.
312

Well, I don't want
to understand.

in the Outpost before?

No. Why? Does this have
something to do with that
murder you're investigating?

- Yeah. It was all around
the place where it happened.
- I know this symbol.

that the humans had
before the banishment.

00:19:17,243 --> 00:19:19,114
They think that
they're these gods.
336
00:19:19,158 --> 00:19:20,768
We know they're just people
with kinjes in their heads.
337
00:19:20,811 --> 00:19:23,771
Yeah, but how would a belief
about Lu-Qiri even exist
338
00:19:23,814 --> 00:19:26,208
when they've been
gone from the Realm for,
what, hundreds of years?
339
00:19:26,252 --> 00:19:28,254
Who knows?
Someone reads an old text,
340
00:19:28,297 --> 00:19:30,865
then meets one of your
lovely little pets.
341
00:19:30,908 --> 00:19:32,997
Mm, not pets.
More like your beasts of burden.
342
00:19:33,041 --> 00:19:36,262
Oh, I do stand corrected.
Either way, wouldn't take much
343
00:19:36,305 --> 00:19:38,655
to rekindle those kinds
of beliefs, would it?
344
00:19:38,699 --> 00:19:42,311
I mean, speaking as a human,
Lu-Qiri? Pretty scary.
345
00:19:42,355 --> 00:19:45,401
- No more than your horses are.
- A lot more than horses.
346
00:19:45,445 --> 00:19:46,750
- All right?
- All right.
347
00:19:50,319 --> 00:19:52,321
Janzo, have you
had a chance to examine--
348
00:19:52,365 --> 00:19:55,498
Gods, scary.
So what is this? Is this--
349
00:19:55,542 --> 00:19:57,935
Have you had a chance to examine
that hand that I brought you?
350
00:19:57,979 --> 00:20:00,808
Oh, yes. Um, sorry.
Probably not going to be
much help, though.
351
00:20:00,851 --> 00:20:03,941
She was a younger woman.
Definitely severed
from the body.
352
00:20:03,985 --> 00:20:07,902
A sharp object, heavy blade.
Maybe an axe.
353
00:20:07,945 --> 00:20:11,732
Oh, also,
there was a little bit
of blue dye on her wrist,
354
00:20:11,775 --> 00:20:13,429
maybe from a bit of clothing.
355
00:20:13,473 --> 00:20:15,692
Could that be of any help?
356
00:20:17,651 --> 00:20:20,131
Maybe, actually.
357
00:20:28,227 --> 00:20:29,924
I thought Janzo proved these
people aren't infected.
358
00:20:29,967 --> 00:20:31,665
Why are they still quarantined?
359
00:20:31,708 --> 00:20:35,451
They're not.
They just have
nowhere else to go.
360
00:20:35,495 --> 00:20:39,977
Great. They're free to come
and go as they please.
361
00:20:40,021 --> 00:20:42,328
Maybe do
a little blood sacrifice,
be back in time for dinner.
362
00:20:42,371 --> 00:20:45,505
- Show me your wrist, please.
- So you agree with Zed?
363
00:20:45,548 --> 00:20:48,159
You think I should've
just let these people
out there to be infected?
364
00:20:48,203 --> 00:20:52,555
No, I-- I'm not sure, Talon.
Right? Show me your wrist.
365
00:20:55,515 --> 00:20:58,300
- What are you looking for?
- Blue dye. Let me see
your wrist.
366
00:20:58,344 --> 00:21:00,998
It's all we have to go on.
It was on the wrist
of the hand that we found.
367
00:21:01,042 --> 00:21:06,221
- Show me your wrist.
- Look, can I just say
I hate being in charge?
368
00:21:06,265 --> 00:21:09,398
I'd much rather someone else
be making the hard decisions.
369
00:21:14,273 --> 00:21:16,623
I think you're doing
a damn good job.

373
00:22:02,538 --> 00:22:04,410
I've searched for any remnants,
attach points,
374
00:22:04,453 --> 00:22:06,629
anything like that
inside this poor man's head
375
00:22:06,673 --> 00:22:09,153
to seen if we can even find
an avenue to attack the kinjes.
376
00:22:09,197 --> 00:22:12,331
But there's not even
the slightest sign there was
ever even a kinj in there.
377
00:22:12,374 --> 00:22:14,289
Which is consistent with what
we've been finding in the rats.
378
00:22:14,333 --> 00:22:17,248
We've tried several times
to cut a kinj
out of a living rat.
379
00:22:17,292 --> 00:22:19,294
Just like Reb tried
to do to you, actually.
380
00:22:19,338 --> 00:22:22,253
And just like yours did,
the kinj, it keeps
moving and hiding.
381
00:22:22,297 --> 00:22:24,691
We end up just cutting
the whole rat apart
just to dig it out.
382
00:22:24,734 --> 00:22:27,258
Which then kills it.
Once the rat dies,
383
00:22:27,302 --> 00:22:30,087
the kinj expels itself and,
um, instantly dissolves.
384
00:22:30,131 --> 00:22:32,438
It's like kill the rats,
kill the kinj.
385
00:22:32,481 --> 00:22:34,962
Just like we've seen
in humans so far.
386
00:22:35,005 --> 00:22:37,399
So the only way to stop it
is to still kill the infected.
387
00:22:37,443 --> 00:22:40,271
- So far.
- Well, that's not
an acceptable solution.
388
00:22:40,315 --> 00:22:43,579
I'm not killing Gwynn,
much less thousands
of innocent people.
389
00:22:43,623 --> 00:22:47,409
We've already proven
that we can't remove the kinj
from a living host.
390
00:22:47,453 --> 00:22:50,760
Now we just need to find out
how to kill it while
it's still in the host.
391
00:22:50,804 --> 00:22:52,153
Without killing the host,
of course.
392
00:22:52,196 --> 00:22:54,111
- Mm.
- So do that.

00:23:30,017 --> 00:23:33,107
Warlita never showed up
for work last night.
395
00:23:36,458 --> 00:23:38,199
I found this
in the back alley.
396
00:23:38,242 --> 00:23:41,158
It's her brooch.

No, it's Dunlee Page.

about this as you are.

- You knew her?
- I only met her once.

that they would do this again

would have known that.

Yes, he would, Munt!
413
