Skammerens Datter II: Slangens Gave

---

Out! Get out!

Lady Adela?

It's time for the little

Prince's morning bath.

Lady Adela?

What Happened?

Close all the doors,

and scour the castle.

You heard the Master at Arms. Move!

Close all the doors! Search the castle.

Esmer, where are you?

Close the gates now!

Master at Arms...

There is something my lord must see.

You will not like the sight. It is

my lord Drakan's cousin, Nicodemus.

Show the way, soldier.

Little Nicodemus...

I'll call the Law Master.

The Shamer's Daughter

Come, Blaze.

Look away.

It's the chamber maid.

Sasia, there are others who will

serve the princess. Tia is the next.

Dina?

Why are you standing there?

I just wanted to see what

you were playing.

Maybe I could join you?

Tia, Look away.

Dina, are you really that stupid?

Do you think we would bother to play

with a little witch like you?

You are a strange, little b*tch.

Go home to your shamer mother.

Look at me!

Look into my eyes, Cilla!

Look into my eyes.

See who you are.

I can see you now.

See yourself, Cilla.

I didn't touch her.

Go home to Heksemor.

Davin...

Where have you been?

Mother has been looking for you.

- Now we get food late.

- You will survive, Melli.

You are the only one

who can bear to look at me, Blaze.

Dina.

Come here.

Come.

Look at me.

- You are a shamer Cilla.

- It doesn't matter.

I'm never going to make friends.

Everyone is afraid of me.

When you look at other people -

- You show them all the things

they would rather forget.

All that they are ashamed of,

and it makes people afraid.

It's not fair.

Why is it just me?

- Why not Davin or Melli?

- Because you're very special.

You have a gift,

but you must use it with care.

There is no gift when

people are afraid of me.

You will understand it once you've

learned when to use your skills.

Then I will never use them.

- Good evening and peace to you.

- And peace to you.

- Are you Melussina Tonerre?

- That's me.

- And your name?

- I'm not here in my own name.

I bring word from the

Law Master in Dunark.

"Prince Ebenezer, his pregnant wife

and four year old son have been killed.

The Prince's son and successor to the

Throne, Nicodemus Ravens, is suspected.

Come at once. A shamer's sight

is our last chance, -

As Nicodemus has not confessed.

The princely power falters, and

evil sometimes can be worse -

If we do not act quickly. "

We have to leave immediately.

Davin, you take good care of

Melli and Dina while I'm away.

I understand that, Law Master

has summoned a shamer?

That's correct. Does my lord

object to it?

It amazes me that the

Council deems it necessary.

Has Nicodemus confessed?

- No, not yet.

We are all convinced of his guilt,

but as long as he will not confess, -

- We have no other choice

than to use a shamer.

- Why isn't mommy back?

- She is coming soon, Melli.

Come, Beast. Come.

- Is this the shamer's farm?

- Yes, but she's not here right now.

Yes, I know.

- Are you her daughter?

- Yes, Dina Tonerre.

My name is Drakan.

Your mother sent me.

- She needs your help.

- Why?

She would rather tell you, Dina.

You should not be afraid.

And you're not are you?

No.

Can you go at once?

Dina.

- Take this here.

- Davin...

Nothing is wrong.

I looked into his eyes.

Just do as I say.

- Goodbye, Dina.

- Goodbye.

One moment.

Come.

Mother!

Dina? What are you doing here?

Why is she here?

Lady has three children, but only

Dina possesses Lady's capabilities.

Maybe Dina can see what

Lady cannot.

Will my lord have Dina

shame Nicodemus?

I have great respect

for the Lady...

- Dina's only a child.

- Yes, but I have to try everything.

And Dina may be my

last hope of justice.

I have seen Nicodemus' mind.

He has flaws like everyone else -

- But the horrible crime my lord is

talking about, he has not committed.

Dina.

I've lost my family

Prince, Princess Adela, -

- Their unborn child

and their four-year old son.

Nicodemus was found dead drunk with

a bloody knife in his hands.

I am asking...

Dina, help me.

I cannot look at myself in your

eyes if I let a murderer go free.

Give us a moment together.

Naturally.

- He looked us in the eyes.

- Yes.

He is not ashamed in the least.

- Dina...

- I will not.

- But, you have to.

- I will not.

It is a person's life

that is at stake.

The Shamer pendant?

But, Mom...

Show it the respect that I

and your ancestors have done.

Just look in his eyes

and tell Drakan what you see.

Just go in, Dina.

Come, Dina.

- Drakan?

- Leave us alone.

Wine!

I guess you need something

to strengthen you.

Who is she?

- It is the shamer's daughter.

- Dina Tonerre.

Oh God, no...

Drakan, I can't take any more.

No more now.

Drakan!

Would you please go.

Here.

- Thanks, Miss.

- You can just call me Dina.

Dina.

So you must also call me Nico.

As do my friends.

Just look at me.

Look at me.

Look into my eyes, Nico.

I see you.

I see you right now.

Fight them, Nicodemus!

Fight, you weakling!

You're ashamed that you drink.

Thou shalt honor thy name

and Ravens house!

Hit him, Drakan!

You're ashamed that

your father thinks you're weak.

- You cursed tyrant!

- You are weak.

You're ashamed that you seduced

your father's new wife.

Adela. Adela!

Are these things yours?!

You're embarrassed that your

your father beat you.

Fight, Nicodemus!

Draco!

Draco!

- Is everything quiet?

- Yes, my lord.

It is good.

It is good.

Dina.

I cannot see that he is at fault.

He is ashamed of many things -

- But he did not kill his father

or his family.

Thanks, Dina. Come here.

What are you doing?

What are you doing? Let me go!

Help! Put me down!

Nico! Help!

You have no more chances, Nico, -

- When you now also have killed

the shamer's daughter.

- Give me that!

- A knife?

A very small knife,

but after all a knife.

Let me go!

You'll soon find peace.

Let me go.

Let me go.

I see you.

I see you right now.

Impossible.

You are born to rule, my boy.

Go away!

Go away, Drakan.

Go away, Drakan.

No...

Die! Die!

Mother!

Mother!

Mother!

Mother!

- Is that you?

- Where is my mother?

- Where is Drakan?

- Where is my mother?

Your mother is coming soon.

Sit down. We are waiting for her.

Everything will be fine.

Dina! Come on!

Come on.

- We must get away.

- An old woman wanted to kill me.

It is dama Lizea, Drakan's mother.

They will behead me when they find him.

- Is he dead?

- I think so.

- Where are we going?

- We can get down to the water.

Come on.

Here.

- Nico!

- They dare not go into the dragon lair

Dragon lair?

We can come out on the other side.

Come on. Just stay behind me.

Just think of them

as overgrown lizards.

- Nico!

- Just keep going. Go!

Draco, here.

Draco! Draco!

Draco!

Nico...

No!

Dina!

Take it easy, little girl.

You are strong.

Everything that people would rather forget.

All that people are ashamed of.

- Everything.

- Everything, Dina.

Understanding when to use

your abilities, and when not to.

The herbs will heal your wounds
