Come on!
Control.
Physical strength without control means nothing.
Once again, from the beginning.
They belonged to a friend.
I know someone that might be able to help.
Our seamstress has prepared some clothing.
I hope they're to your liking.
Are you all right?
Ever since I got here, there are these noises that persist in my head.
I'm sure there's some reason for that.
I don't know.
If you're feeling up to it...
you're more than welcome to join us for dinner.
I don't think the food you have there will be of interest to me.
You act as though you're the only one who feels pain.
What do you know of pain?
My father's Kagan.
My mother was killed before my own eyes.
My mother and father were both killed...
by Vladimir.
They had turned, and I was to be slaughtered.
Had he not arrived, I would not be here today.
Your food.
What, are we sitting at the table of the children?
We're running out of food.
We have to go to the mainland and get supplies.
No. It's not a good idea.
- We'll have to make do with what we have. - We have to eat.
Perhaps your savior can multiply our supplies.
Welcome. Won't you come sit with us?
It seems you've become very popular.
I think you've breathed some new hope into the Society.
- This surprises you? - I thought they would be afraid of me.
They only fear what they do not know.
Can I see your teeth?
Darius.
So you're satisfied with your new clothing?
Yes. Thank you.
Father...
in the days since I received your letter...
I have come to see certain truths that now give me pause.
I believe that you are right.
Brimstone is lost.
Be sure this message arrives.
- It is of grave importance. - Yes, Katarin.
The spoils of Rome.
Only one Brimstone remains.
Bring me my thralls.
The time has come to fulfill your oaths, my loyal thralls.
Scour the land. Find Brimstone and destroy it.
Bring the dhamphir to me. Leave no human alive that crosses you.
The promise of eternal life awaits those who succeed.
Those who fail will find only death.
- Nice form. - Finally we agree on something.
Vladimir needs you. He's in the courtyard.
Good match.
Until we duel again.
You duel?
A little.
Your form is weak. You're lacking passion.
It's part of my plan. I am tiring you out.
Your plan is lacking passion as well.
I see they have taught you well.
Hardly. I was trained in battle by a great warrior...
one whom has long disappeared fighting alongside Brimstone.
My father.
- Where is this warrior now? - He is now a cursed enemy.
A vampire. My loyalties lie with Vladimir...
and the Brimstone my father protected as a human.
And what do your loyalties consist of?
You're a curious one. My purpose is to fulfill my father's will-
killing the very thing he's become.
It seems all this chatter has veered me from the task at hand.
You should pay more attention.
Keep your friends close, enemies even closer.
Vladimir taught me that.
We shall continue this later.
Good evening, Viscount. Kagan sends his regards.
I assume you were expecting this message from Brimstone from Katarin?
Would you stop throwing things at me?
You know, Elrick, Kagan has little patience for ambitious vampires...
especially those that were once Brimstone.
Can a vampire not receive word from his own daughter...
without being cast as a rebel in search of power?
- Is that the plan? - Plans are for humans.
I think destiny is a more appropriate term.
Where is Brimstone? Tell me now, or suffer the consequences.
Even you must sense that change is upon us.
This land has become unsettled.
The future must be held in the hands of human-born...
and vampire-perfected.
That is an invitation, by the way.
Spare Katarin, unseat Kagan...
and join me in a, shall we say, more colorful reign.
Kagan's gratitude or Kagan's wrath.
Now, where's Brimstone?
You honestly expect me...
to betray my daughter?
You know, it's funny.
You never struck me as the paternal type.
Now, get me the map.
Give us our destiny.
We leave now, and that will be the end of it.
You should travel with Sebastian.
Is there something you want to speak about?
You should not travel with her.
She's a danger to you. Kagan is surely out looking for her.
You're an important part of the Brimstone Society.
Your work defending the fortress...
is essential to our struggle and survival.
And no one has ever questioned that.
I am not seeking praises.
- I seek to feel secure. - You are a leader.
Rayne is a fighter.
I will take Sebastian if it pleases you.
Lancu's been a friend for many years...
and a defender of the Society.
We're very fortunate to have him.
Lancu has visitors.
Come for some chops, have you?
We'll be downstairs.
Watch your step. It's a long way down.
Your kind of place.
Domastir.
We must move quickly.
What are those?
Black powder from China.
We will take them.
Is everything ready?
Take anything else you need.
Holy water.
- A gift from Brimstone. - Thank you.
Brimstone's attacked. They're all dead.
- That's not possible. - It was Domastir and the thralls.
Are there any survivors?
You can't go back. There's too many.
- They came looking for you. - How did they find us?
I have dressings for his wounds.
This doesn't feel right.
- How would they know? - This is what Kagan wants.
To lure back what's left of Brimstone to him...
so he can destroy us once and for all.
Domastir will pay with his life for this.
If they want a fight, a fight they will get.
It was Katarin.
You must choose. Bargain for freedom...
or leave your children motherless as a Brimstone martyr.
Never!
She's turned.
He's dead.
- Just let me go. - I can't.
- You will. - Where are you going?
I'm going on my own.
Everyone who comes near me dies.
They came looking for me and the Eye.
None of those people had to die. You too will be dead if I stay with you.
- You don't have to do this. - I'm going to find the Heart.
With two of the talismans, I will stand a chance against Kagan.
How do you expect to find the Heart?
I can hear it.
Good-bye, Sebastian.
Just wait. Wait. Stop. Here.
You can wear this with pride.
Please?
And here.
This will protect you.
Sir, we've searched the entire grounds. There's no sign of the dhamphir.
She is not amongst the dead either, sir.
Perhaps she was never here.
We must return to Kagan. She could be on her way there now.
- Prepare the boats! - Yes, sir.
The Heart.
Perhaps there's some truth to this prophecy after all.
Even if she has the Heart, she can't face Kagan alone.
Nothing yet.
- Are you certain that it's down there? - Are you questioning me?
My grandfather placed it there.
I would not risk all on folktales.
Why did we let the others die?
It was them or all of us.
We sacrifice animals to survive. Brimstone is no different.
I will kneel before no one...
nor will I sit here under Vladimir's command and await death.
I will not allow Kagan to take away our freedom.
The Heart will go to my father.
And if you want to live, you will secure the entrance until I return.
Yes, Katarin.
She's not coming. It's too late.
Have faith, Sebastian. She will be here.
I am here for Kagan.
What is she doing?
I have brought the Heart for my father.
Give it to me. Come on.
You have what you want. Now take me to Kagan.
All in good time. Take her.
Well, Sebastian...
I'm afraid there's only one way in.
Get in!
Master.
The dhamphir has come to her senses and delivered the Heart.
Excellent.
- Shall I bring her in? - No, not yet.
An historic night.
Prepare to witness the beginning of a new era.
Clear the room.
- Clear the room! - Thralls! Forward!
March!
Come on!
Capture them alive. Take them to the dungeon.
To the dungeon!
There may be more. Leave them in the cell for now and scour the castle.
The rats will be eating well tonight.
Enjoy your stay.
And you, my dear, you will stay here until the ceremony.
- I know nothing of a ceremony. - The Eye, dhamphir.
The ceremony to extract the Eye.
- Are you all right? - Yes.
It is good to know that you are both alive.
- I fear we're the only ones. - What of Katarin? Is she still alive?
If not, then she died with honor...
fighting for her people.
What do you know of this ceremony?
It's an ancient vampire ritual created to protect the talismans...
in case they fall into the wrong hands.
What will come of me?
It is only a legend said to remove the soul.
Listen.
I do not know what is going to happen to me now.
I hope that you know that I am not foolish enough...
to think that I'm going to prevail against him.
But I do not intend to stop fighting for a second.
Nor will we.
Open up.
And bind her hands.
It is time for the ceremony.
Come.
- We've got to find a way out of here. - Well, let's get out then.
Even in absolute defeat, you're still not humble.
If I'm defeated and you're so powerful...
then why must I be shackled when surrounded by your thralls?
You're still a risk. I should thank you now that Brimstone is eradicated...
and you have so kindly handed me the Heart.
I would never have believed it would have been so easy.
If you live through this, which is unlikely...
you may remain here in my castle.
I would sooner rot in your dungeon than sit at your table.
So be it.
Let us begin.
Thrall, my companion is gone.
I don't know what's become of him.
Stand back.
Can't believe that worked.
Savage!
Please continue.
This is the end of Brimstone.
You have the Heart. Give it to me.
You will have to cut it from me.
So be it.
You're strong, Rayne, but not skilled enough.
Give me the Heart, and I shall spare your life.
I would choose death over seeing you as my ruler.
You're interfering with fate. With the talismans joined...
vampires shall rule the earth.
As if your interests are noble.
For centuries, we've been cursed to the shadows, slaughtered by the fearful.
Have you not always longed for freedom?
You condemned me the day you raped my mother.
I will see she has vengeance.
Ungrateful bitch.
Choose to be human and die like one.
I will find her.
- The talismans. - I don't care. Kagan is dead.
But what about you?
No! No, no.
Please. Please.
Please, you don't have to leave me.
It's my time.
Kagan's finished.
