Ironclad Page #5

Synopsis: It is the year 1215 and the rebel barons of England have forced their despised King John to put his royal seal to the Magna Carta, a noble, seminal document that upheld the rights of free-men. Yet within months of pledging himself to the great charter, the King reneged on his word and assembled a mercenary army on the south coast of England with the intention of bringing the barons and the country back under his tyrannical rule. Barring his way stood the mighty Rochester castle, a place that would become the symbol of the rebel's momentous struggle for justice and freedom.

- What are you doing?

- I'm writing my name.

How do you do that?

Master Guy taught me.

Well, that's you all done then.

What makes a man like you so angry?

I've been angry so long...

I don't even remember.

It's kept you

alive though, I suppose.

I don't think

it's gonna get us through this one.

- What do you think they're doing?

- Pigs. For a sapper's fire.

- Sappers?

- They're digging a mine underneath us.

Pig's fat, it burns,

with the heat of a crucible.

Make Way!

Go on! Go!

Whoa!

Whoa there!

Whoa!

Bring them in.

We've got a bigger problem.

Hah! Get in there!

Go on!

Coteral.

It's hot.

- So what are we gonna do now?

- Templar.

We get to the other side of the keep.

Guy, take the women to the chapel, huh?

Go!

Hurry, Isabel.

Get down! Get down!

- I think he's gone.

- I'm not making that mistake again.

Come on.

OK.

One, two.

Oh, Maddy. She was beside me.

Becket. Becket.

Ha!

I'll hold them Off.

How much did they pay

to get you out those stocks?

- Five shillings.

- That is cheaper than a whore.

Come on, you filthy whores!

If they get through us,

you kill the women.

- No.

- Say it.

- I can't.

- Say it!

I'll kill the women.

Come on, you whore! Yaargh!

Aargh!

Aargh!

Forgive me.

Thomas. Thomas!

Thomas!

Save her.

No one touch him!

How's your faith now, Templar?

Why don't you come a little closer...

..and I'll show you.

Yaaargh!

You fought bravely.

Is killing a noble thing?

But a life fought for others

is a life worth living.

That is a noble thing.

A French prince

now holds the English crown.

Not an easy decision to make.

Nor was this one.

The Order's over for you, Thomas.

You've earned your freedom

as much as any man.

Your Grace.

Come on.

We held.

Within a year,

the rebellion was won.

While fleeing for his life,

King John died of dysentery.

What was left of his treasure

was never recovered.

In time, the great keep of Rochester

was rebuilt.

It stands to this day.

So too does the noble dream that was...

Magna Carta.
