In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale Page #5

and solve the problem at its source.

Get me to this Gallian...

and I'll kill him.

Sir, with respect...

are we making plans to save one woman

when there is an entire kingdom at risk?

If the king is to save his wife,

he must kill Gallian.

If he kills Gallian,

the kingdom is saved.

Muriella.

Now is the time.

Your Majesty.

I wish to join your mission.

I wish to be of service.

Yes. Well, you've made your point.

Now go back to the castle.

I am my father's daughter...

and I will serve the king

just as he does.

You brought the king's murderer.

He fell into my hands.

A man needs all the help

he can get, magus.

I accept your offer.

- There are others who wish to help.

- Which others?

Let me show you.

- You've managed to stay alive.

- I've stayed away.

Those who you fight,

those who control the Krug-

we will help you fight them.

Thought you didn't involve yourself

in the conflicts of men.

This war isn't going away.

We can see that.

And when our forest

is burned and invaded...

we have no other choice.

We will fight with you,

and then we wish to be left alone.

Christwind.

- Built as a secure haven for magi.

- How secure?

Hmm. Well, the doors

open from within.

You can get in?

- A magus does not need doorways to enter Christwind.

- I'll find a way.

Do you consider yourself

lucky to be alive?

I do.

Life...

has never been so exciting.

Those people who came with me-

Why not free them?

You do not want the world to know

that you have ultimate power and mercy?

Do you understand nothing?

I'm beyond mercy.

I'm beyond good and bad.

These are childish ideas.

I'm changing the structures of the world.

Where would I stop if

I showed your friends mercy?

- It could-

- No exemptions!

No one. Not you.

Not the farmer.

Not your poor screaming boy

whose insides I tore out.

Kill me!

I won't kill you.

I enjoy you.

If you can bleed, you can die.

Perhaps I can.

But I won't.

I have too much work to do.

Tarish.

Archers ready.

Fire!

Now!

There is a cave up there.

It allows the air to enter.

And now I must leave you.

I don't want you to go alone.

If there is any sanity left in that madman,

then I must try to reach it.

You can't reason with evil, Merick.

But I should at least

be able to distract him.

I knew you'd come.

Old friend.

We were friends once.

But you have greatly changed.

Oh?

A magus's power is contingent...

on his service to a king.

How is it that you thrive

as the king's adversary?

How do you like my Krug?

They are a cruel abomination.

Funny thing about Krug.

They have no king.

So guess what I've done, old friend.

- I dare not guess.

- I've made myselfking.

King of the Krug.

Now I serve a king

who deserves my utmost devotion.

- Me.

- Enough!

Gallian,you and I

are the last of the magi.

I beg you, recognize

that you have fallen into madness.

You have no idea...

how powerful...

madness can be.

In my kingdom, there will be

no word for madness.

We shall simply call it...

power.

Charge!

Hmm. He's here.

He's arrived.

I see no reason to prolong this battle.

Muriella.

Muriella.

You're here.

I don't know how it happened.

How could I have been so stupid?

Forgive me...

magus.

Take the last of my power.

- Kill them.!

- Somebody help us.

Look out behind you.!

Run! Go!

Move it. Let's go. Go!

This way, Farmer.

This way.

Farmer. Oh.!

you've caused me a lot of worry, Farmer.

I understand you've become king.

We can't have two kings bickering

over a single kingdom, now, can we?

How often do two kings

get to do battle one-on-one...

getting to taste the blood

of one's true enemy?

Are you gonna fight...

or talk me to death?

You wanna fight me with magic?

- Where's your honor?

I will have my vengeance.

No!

What manner of vengeance

are you enjoying, Farmer?

The vengeance of a father,

the vengeance of a husband...

or the vengeance of a king?

- You forget the vengeance of a mother.

What's happening?

There's something

I've always wanted to tell you.

I love you.
