The Great Impaler

can't please his woman.

Everything's fine, boys.

They're just saying

their goodbyes is all.

Mirena.

I won't let you...

You promised me my family!

Mirena, please!

Stop it!

Don't touch me!

I won't!

I won't let them do this!

Vlad, don't!

Don't do this!

No! No!

No, I won't let you do this!

I'll go.

I won't! No!

I'll go!

I can do it.

You're proud of me,

aren't you?

Of course I am.

You have chosen wisely.

Yeah, I have to say,

we are a little disappointed.

Frankly, I expected more

resistance from you.

Run to your mother.

What?

Now!

Come here!

Don't look!

Mehmed will punish all of

Transylvania for what you have done.

Ifs not a child's place

to save his country.

Get my family

to the castle.

Mehmed will be

sending others soon enough.

War will come.

You can't protect us.

I'll find a way.

Vlad!

Where are you going?

Whatever haunts Broken Tooth,

I know it kills Turks.

You returned.

No one has ever returned.

It seems no one has ever had the

privilege of leaving, either.

Neither will you.

Those whom enter

reek of fear.

In you,

I sense hope.

Your silver offends me.

Cloak it from my sight.

What kind of man

crawls into his own grave

in search of hope? Hmm?

A desperate one.

The Turks threaten

to destroy my kingdom.

With power like yours,

I could stop them,

save my people,

save my family.

How supremely noble,

Lord Impaler.

House Dracul,

Son of the Devil.

You're mistaken.

It means

"son of the dragon. "

"Protector of the innocent. "

Do your people know

how many innocents

you have killed?

Was it hundreds?

YGS.

Lie to me again

and I'll open you from

your belly to your brain

and feed you

your intestines.

Thousands.

And when you put them to the

stake, what did you feel?

Shame? Horror?

Power?

Answer me!

Nothing!

I felt nothing.

A greater crime

than the act itself.

Then why spill blood

if not for the pleasure of it?

Because men do not

fear swords.

They fear monsters.

They run from them.

By putting one

village to the stake,

I spared 10 more.

Sometimes the world

no longer needs a hero.

Sometimes what it needs

is a monster.

And you believe you know

what it is to be

a monster? Hmm?

You have no idea.

But I'm going

to show you.

For centuries, these moldering

walls have been my gallows.

For I'm bound to this cave,

condemned by

one who turned me.

Oh' and I have

waited an eternity

for a man of your strength,

your gifts, your will.

A man worthy of the dark

and all its powers.

For if I am your salvation,

you are mine.

Drink.

You will have

a taste of my power.

The strength of 100 men.

The speed

of a falling star.

Dominion over the night

and all its creatures.

To see and hear

through their senses.

Even heal grievous wounds.

At what price?

Once you drink,

your thirst

for human blood

will be insatiable.

But if you can

resist for three days,

you will return to

your mortal state

having sampled my power,

and perhaps,

saved your people.

And if I feed?

The price would

be worse than

if you'd never

stepped in here.

For I will be set free

having granted the darkness

a worthy offering.

You will become

its vessel as I am.

A scourge on this earth

destined to destroy

everything you hold dear.

Your lands, your people,

even your

precious wife and son.

I would die

before I harmed them.

Indeed you will,

I'm afraid.

L, however,

will at last be free

to unleash my wrath against

the one who betrayed me.

And one day, I will call on

you to serve me, my pawn,

in an immortal

game of revenge.

This is not a game!

Ah, but what better way

to endure eternity?

For this, little prince,

is the ultimate game.

Light versus dark,

hope versus despair.

And all the world's

fate hangs in the balance.

Then it will be

my great pleasure

to disappoint you.

Drink.

Let the games begin.

What HOW?

Now,

you die.

Papa!

That's useful.

Prepare to fire!

Light!

You came back.

I always will.

Where were you?

Searching for

the strength I needed.

You're back!

They wanted our sons!

We can't fight.

A good prince would

have given them up.

A good prince would have

paid that price for peace.

But I give you my word,

we will not be defeated!

They've brought

war to our land.

And they will

pay dearly for it.

Fire!

Charge!

What? Wait.

Negotiations failed.

Do not ask me what happened

on this field tonight.

Trust only that I will use

all I have to keep us safe.

But we will not be

safe if we stay here.

We must leave

directly for Cozia Monastery.

It's high in the mountains,

too remote for cannon fire.

It's our best

chance of survival.

We'll take

enough of our people

so that our

absence is noticed.

That way, when Mehmed learns

what has happened here,

he will come

hunting for us.

Word from Castle Dracula.

Vlad has defeated

1,000 of our men.

Then send 100,000.

I will lead them.

When I march into Europe,

I will have his head

upon my spear

and his child at my side.

We can fight the way

our great-grandfathers fought.

Use the forests, the mountains

around the Borgo Pass.

Four or five monish

of that.

Not months.

I'm gonna win this war

in three days.

Why not two?

That'd really impress us.

MASTER VAMPIRE; Feed.

What is it?

I need some air.

I'm sorry.

Don't think I haven't

noticed you following me.

You're mistaken.

I follow them.

They recognize

one of their own.

The night is their kingdom.

Blood, their sustenance.

And some, they say,

have lived for as long as there

have been prey to devour.

Spare me your ravings.

They say the one who

escaped the mountain

hides behind

the face of a man.

Well, if that man is me,

you'll know a knife

will not do you any good.

Of course not.

Why do you think I stayed?

I know there is only so far

on this earth we can run,

and it is not far enough.

Let me SQFVG YOU.

Stay away from me.

YES, master.

Fulfill your destiny.

Set me free.

We found him in the field.

He asked for you.

A message from Prince Vlad.

He hopes you enjoy the view.

Mirena!

YOUF scars 8Y9 QOHG.

What's happening to you?

I'm the thing men

fear on Broken Tooth.

Not a ghost.

Something else.

No! Stop it!

May God strike down

whoever did this to you.

I chose this.

This is

the strength you sought?

But why?

Because I sent corpses

back to Mehmed

instead of our son.

You did this for us?

In two days,

I'll be restored.

I just have to resist.

Resist what?

Resist what, Vlad?

Tell me!

A thirst

for blood.

And if you were to

give in?

Then I become

this for eternity.

You will undo this,

won't you?

YGS.

I swear it.

I will not give in.

Then God will forgive you.

Vlad.

Mehmed is getting closer.

We might want

to move out soon.

I need you to get

to the monastery

as quickly as you can.

Mehmed's men will be close by.

No.

Listen to me.

I will reach you

after sundown.

I promise you.

I love you.

My husband agrees

with your counsel.

We will depart now under your
