- What?
They left more warnings.
They wish us to leave.
That cannot be.
One saw us.
It ran off into the darkness.
You are certain?
Can you boys stay close to lvy here?
She'll tell you some funny stories
and have you laughing soon.
We will go together.
(children whimpering)
(Alice) Livestock has been taken
and skinned.
The hides and feathers are missing.
There are marks on the door
where it was opened.
The marks are high.
Coyotes cannot reach that height.
(gasps)
(Alice) The elders are going to have
an inquiry tomorrow.
Each member of the village is to be
questioned in the meeting hall.
(Lucius) To see how
the border was breached?
(Alice) Yes.
It is cold outside.
You ought to go in.
Why are you on this porch?
It is not safe.
There are other porches.
Do you find me too much of a tomboy?
I do long to do boy things...
...Iike that game
the boys play at the stump.
They put their backs to the woods,
and see how long they can wait
before getting scared.
That's so exciting.
I understand you hold the record.
It will never be broken, they say.
It's just children's games.
How is it you are brave when all
the rest of us shake in our boots?
I do not worry about what will happen,
only what needs to be done.
How did you know I was here?
I saw you out the window.
No...
...I won't tell you your color.
Stop asking.
When we are married,
will you dance with me?
I find dancing very agreeable.
Why can you not say what is in your head?
Why can you not stop saying
what is in yours?
Why must you lead, when I want to lead?
If I want to dance, I will ask you to dance.
If I want to speak,
I will open my mouth and speak.
Everyone is forever
plaguing me to speak further.
Why? What good is it to tell you
you are in my every thought
from the time I wake?
What good can come from my saying
l-I sometimes cannot think clearly,
or do my work properly?
What gain can rise from my telling you
the only time I feel fear as others do...
...is when I think of you in harm?
That is why I am on this porch, lvy Walker.
I fear for your safety before all others.
And, yes...
...I will dance with you
on our wedding night.
(woman) I had been to the storage shed
twice to fetch food
prior to the wedding ceremony.
(Alice) And the livestock
was untouched at that time?
(woman) Yes, Mrs. Hunt.
All was as it should be.
Thank you, Beatrice.
I beg your pardon.
Is it true... about Lucius and lvy?
There are whispers all over the village.
We were informed early this morning
of their intentions.
It is amazing to witness
which two people love chooses to unite.
It follows no rules.
Kitty...
I wanted to speak with you first.
I would not want you to feel pain,
in any fashion.
You are my cherished one.
If you were to feel badly
about Lucius, I would not have it.
One love to sacrifice
another love is not right.
that would sacrifice my love for you.
You are my cherished one as well.
God bless you and your life together.
(knock on door)
What's happened?
Is this about lvy and myself?
I know you are very fond of her.
And I know she is fond of you.
There are different types of love.
Oh.
Oh, God.
(moaning)
Oh, lvy...
(groans)
- (knocking)
- Noah?
You'll be late for the meeting hall. Would
you like your father to walk you there?
(creaking)
Noah?
Oh...
The bad... The bad color.
Oh...
The bad color, the bad color...
(music plays and dialogue muted)
Mama!
(door opens)
- I beg your pardon.
- What is it?
There's been an accident.
Noah Percy was found with quarts
of blood upon his clothes and hands.
The blood was not his own,
and he will not speak as to whose it is.
God in heaven.
Ivy!
(man) Is there anyone injured in here?
(Alice) Has anyone
been hurt in this home?
Is anyone in here?
(Walker) Is anyone hurt in this house?
(muttering)
Lucius?
Lucius Hunt!
You answer me right this moment!
(distant voices)
(Walker) Is anyone hurt in this house?
They're fine.
Mr. Walker!
(Walker) Joseph!
Papa... I cannot see his color.
Ivy.
- Come away. Come away.
- (screams)
Come away. Here, take her.
Take her.
(screams) No!
(Mrs. Clack) He has suffered a great deal.
He may pass at any time.
Please give him all your prayers
and good thoughts.
He will hear them.
(door unlocking)
(whimpering)
(man) Turn!
(groans)
(crying)
(yelling and banging)
(Ivy) I am in love.
(Walker) I know.
He is in love with me.
I know.
If he dies...
...all that is life to me will die with him.
I ask permission...
...to travel through Covington Woods...
...and go to the towns...
...to retrieve medicines...
...that may save...
...Lucius Hunt.
You are my father.
I will listen to you in all things.
I will trust your decision.
(man) I've done what I can to close
the wounds. There's an infection.
What can be done to mend him?
We can only pray.
If there were no limitations,
what could be done?
Hmm?
What are you asking me?
that can be done to mend the boy?
Please, Victor. Would you be so kind
as to answer my question?
(Victor) If the infection is contained,
he may still survive.
I must speak up.
You have a restless spirit.
I know the thing that is in your head.
You're thinking of going to the towns.
Tell me I'm wrong.
You have made an oath, Edward,
as all have, never to go back.
It is a painful bargain,
but no good can come without sacrifice.
These are your words I'm saying.
- It is sacred.
- It is a crime,
what has happened to Lucius.
You have taken the oath.
You and the rest of the elders...
Are you listening to me?
You...
...have taken the oath.
The moment I heard my daughter's
vision had finally failed her,
and that she would forever be blind,
I was sitting in that very chair.
I was so ashamed.
What do you know about your grandfather?
He was the wealthiest man in the towns?
That he was. He had a gift for that.
If he was given one dollar, in less than a
fortnight, he would have turned it into five.
You do not know of money.
It is not part of our life here.
Money can be a wicked thing.
It can turn men's hearts black -
good men's hearts.
For all his gifts,
he was a poor judge of a man's character.
Your grandfather was a good man, lvy.
He had a laugh that could
He used to hold my hand as I hold yours.
He taught me strength
and showed me love,
and told me to lead
when others would only follow.
Your grandfather, James Walker,
died in his sleep.
A man put a gun to his head
and shot him while he dreamed.
I tell you this so you will understand
some of the reasons for my actions,
and...
...and the actions of others.
You are a strong one, lvy.
You lead when others would follow.
You see light
when there is only darkness.
I trust you.
Thank you, Father.
Ivy, do you know where you are?
