Tribes and Empires: Storm of Prophecy

Prince De.

Come with me.

You're not scared that I might eat you up?

Come with me.

Prince De.

Prince De!

If you're feeling down, having something sweet will cheer you up.

It isn't as if you've only just met me.

I never eat any sweets or candied fruits.

Any food that leaves you greedy for more will make your mind pliable.

My father said that I am tough.

He thinks that he can bully me just by saying that?

If I am to become easily bent

I will lose to him.

I'm very good at bullying others.

Don't let me spot your weakness.

I wouldn't eat any fruit when I was a child.

My mother would always turn them into fruit compote.

Prince De, would you like to try some?

Do you take me as a child?

You were born to serve others.

All you know is how to do these useless chores.

It's best to have it fresh like this.

You don't even know how to talk back when you've been humiliated.

You...

You were born to be a servant!

Try it.

If you don't compare yourself to anyone, there's no inferiority.

Doing what you want to do makes you useful.

What is it that you wish to do?

Be good to you.

I'm not a good person.

It isn't because someone is praised by all others that I wish to treat him well.

For some reason...

when I see you...

I somehow think that deep down, you're not happy.

I always feel that I want to help you.

Lan Yu'er...

Do you know why I took you away from Muyun Sheng?

I like to snatch things away from others.

But once I acquire them...

they mean nothing to me.

Since you want to be a servant

you can work in the inn's kitchen from now on.

Your Highness.

You're heading out?

Where were you yesterday?

It's my monthly routine to visit my master at Muru Manor.

I heard you say that the general has reassigned your colleague

back to the manor to guard your young master.

I've disturbed Your Highness with my casual chat.

Please forgive me.

That young master...

It's Han Jiang?

Take me to him.

Your Highness, Young Master Han Jiang's freedom is now restricted.

He is not to be in contact with any outsiders.

I won't be able to get you in.

You can't, but I can.

Have you forgotten that I'm now the heir apparent?

Yes!

Stop going any further.

If I run away, how will Father punish you?

The Great General Muru of the Duan Empire will punish

any delinquent according to the military law.

Our father will punish any negligent sons according to the family regulations.

Simply put, you get punished twice.

12 strokes with the baton.

24 strokes with the family cane.

Good physique.

Take care.

Your arms are quite strong!

You want to give it a go?

No!

Father told me to take you to the family tomb

to pay respects to our ancestors.

I'm not interested at all.

What will you do?

The crown prince is here in the manor.

Haven't you thought of taking another look at him?

What's the point?

I heard that His Majesty is already bestowing Miss Su to him.

Hold on!

Greetings, Young Masters!

What did you just say?

Repeat it again.

Prince Sheng is here to visit.

His Majesty will have he and Su Yu Ning...

marry.

You may go.

Yes.

It's the prophecy.

His Majesty believes in it.

Let go of me.

Let go of me!

What can you do about it?

Snatch Miss Su away and escape to the far end of the world?

You don't care about our clan? Miss Su has her parents!

If you were me, what would you do?

What would you do?

Han Jiang!

We have 4 to 5 generals and 24 lives in this household!

You're their young master so they can't hold you back!

But if we really let you out of here

they are sure to take their own lives.

Master.

Your Highness wishes to see Han Jiang?

Yes.

His Majesty has made a decree.

Muru Han Jiang is not to leave the manor.

He is not to meet anyone.

He isn't allowed visitors?

Father gave orders to have you calm your mind at the family tomb.

You can only get up after the incense is burnt out.

Are you always so obedient?

Don't you find it boring?

I'm very busy.

There's no time to be bored.

I mean it.

I'm now the army supervisor.

I have to attain four purple gold first-class merits in war

so as to be promoted to Commandant Protector

before I turn 35.

Then become Commanding General at 45 years old.

I'll do my best to take over Father's military banner before I turn 48

so as to become the next Great General Muru.

I'm already 26 years old.

I'm running out of time.

These are all the tasks that your father assigned you?

Our father.

Han Shan.

I'm not as unlucky as you.

I don't need my life to be decided by others.

I'll live as I wish.

What else is better than becoming General Muru?

Too many things.

For instance?

For instance...

that feeling of freedom and being carefree.

For instance, fighting for whatever it is you want.

You don't have to care about what others think.

If I tell you too much

I'm afraid that you'll be so envious that you won't fall asleep at night.

Really?

That might also be nice.

But since I carry the surname of Muru

I've never once thought of a different way to lead my life.

You're such a fool!

Han Shan!

You can't see me.

What?

You can't see me!

Greetings, Crown Prince!

Muru Han Jiang.

Crown Prince has come especially to visit you.

Greet him.

General.

From now on, I'll protect you.

I'm Han Jiang.

Who are you?

Muyun Sheng.

Who are you?

Han Jiang.

I'll have to eat more.

Taking someone like you with me to travel the world

I'll surely be exhausted.

I look forward to my future life.

It seems that... I've never been so happy.

It's been a long while.

Who are you looking for?

I'm looking for Han Jiang.

I'm not here.

You're not?

Since you're not here, I'll come again another day.

What were you thinking?

You have to meddle in what I think?

I must!

I'm thinking about friendship.

I'm thinking about what to do if my friend has taken

the most important thing in my life from me.

Have you figured it out?

I can't!

You chain me up again?

Prince Sheng shall become the emperor.

Miss Su will be his empress.

Out of three prophecies, two are about to be fulfilled.

But your prophecy to vie with Prince Sheng for the throne...

I'll never allow it to come true as long as I'm alive.

Even if it means having you chained up for life.

Have you forgotten?

The prophecy also stated that when Muyun Sheng becomes the emperor

Novoland will be hurled into suffering and misery.

Lives will be forfeited.

I remember that.

But I remember even more clearly

the promise that the Muru ancestors pledged to protect the Muyun family.

Even if the Muyun family has made a mistake, we...

We must not.

Do you know right from wrong?

What I obey, what I believe...
