Olympus

Even though Athens is in the grip of a bloody war,

you want me to march into the King's palace

and say, "Hello, King.

You don't know me, but I'm your son"?

You want me to bed the priestess?

If I do this thing for you,

you must do something in return.

I'd like you to use your skills for a kidnap.

What does he look like?

His feet are painted blue, dark blue.

What does he want him to do?

Sorry, Lord. He won't tell me.

I am your servant, Majesty.

An oracle must be a virgin, yes?

Their gift depends on it.

Tonight, you will present that gift to your King.

I've missed you, old friend.

I have found someone who will act as your eyes...

so that you can carry on working.

I defy anyone to not fall under her spell.

The prisoner's climbing out.

- Does he have blue feet? - How'd you know that?

Where's the ring?

I have it. Come on, let's go.

You're not coming with me, Oracle.

70 days he's been banging that drum.

When the sacking comes,

he's who I'll kill first.

When the sacking comes,

we'll all be dead of starvation.

Ah! Pull it out!

I know I look like a Minoan,

but I'm actually a friend of Athens.

I'm here to see the King.

He's...

Well, he's my father.

So if you just let me go,

I promise not to harm anyone...

else.

The King's your father, is he?

We'd better take you along to see him, then.

Mother.

Go wait for your master in his room.

Where is he?

I'm expecting him any moment.

- When, exactly? - What is your interest...

...in this blue-footed fugitive?

Who else have you told about this?

- No one. - Your darling scribe?

Kimon loves me.

He is Pallas' creature.

Once, perhaps.

Now he's mine.

Lykos.

Look me in the eye.

Have you told him?

No.

Remember...

The only person you can trust in this world

is me.

And what about Father?

He has other things on his mind.

Like the Priestess of the Moon?

Like the war, his people,

the burden of state,

and, yes, the will of the gods.

He is losing this war,

and has already lost his people.

He is all we have.

I am better suited to lead.

You're still young, Lykos.

But I'm ready!

You may not see it,

but I... I feel it.

The flame has sparked inside me.

Its fire burns brighter

by the day.

You are falling for your scribe.

No! It's the Lexicon.

I can sense its power growing,

calling to me.

I'm ready to lead, Mother.

How many campaigns have you fought?

Your time will come...

I promise.

But you must be patient. Now is not your moment.

Bring me my fugitive the moment you have him.

You gave your oath.

You said you've never failed.

Not so.

I said I've never failed, but once.

Your payment returned.

Why would someone tie you to my bed

in the middle of the night?

Why indeed?

And how could you possibly not notice it happening?

I'm a heavy sleeper.

You spent the night with the Oracle of Gaia?

Well... only the Oracle of Gaia,

I'm afraid to say.

Not the woman.

How could someone slip into my quarters

in the middle of the night

and do this?

Obviously, it was no ordinary someone.

What do you mean?

The Athenian spy escaped in the night.

Are you saying

he snuck past my guards,

came in here, tied her up,

before he spirited himself away?

Was it him?

No.

So you did notice who it was.

Well, I was half-asleep, of course,

but I thought it was your father, the King,

who tied me.

Why?

Fetch me a knife.

There will have to be an inquest.

Athenian spies do not escape out of my prisons.

Should I call the Captain of the Guard?

Yes.

I hope her interpretations of your dreams were worth it.

All right.

I'm sick of both of you.

What happened to your eyes,

you poor fellow?

An allergy to poisonous hornets.

I hope it doesn't interfere with your work.

No.

It's going very, very well.

See?

What's this?

A digging machine.

I call it "the digging machine."

What is it for?

Your troops will march

into the heart of Athens...

underground.

That's ridiculous! Where's the glory in that?

I want to march through walls, not under them.

What's the difference?

Quiet.

I'm trying to sleep.

You must delegate more, Daedalus.

My daughter tells me

this young man is very talented.

Use him.

Who would have guessed

a virgin would be so good at manipulating men?

Perhaps that is why you are still a virgin.

What are you going to do with that oil?

Why would the Athenians risk so much to free him?

I don't know. He's cursed.

Perhaps...

I can help clear your mind.

He's gone.

But you're still here.

Tell me about you.

What does the virgin Oracle want?

Relax.

Pleasure...

is as fleeting as birdsong.

When it comes, you must surrender to it.

I know you have secrets...

Desires you've never told anyone.

King of Athens! King of Athens!

King of Athens! King of Athens!

King of Athens!

King of Athens! King of Athens!

King of Athens!

King of Athens! King of Athens!

King of Athens! King of Athens!

What just happened?

I...

had a vision.

A vision of what?

A vision I've had before...

of Aegeus, King of Athens, destroying our world.

And unlocking the Lexicon inside his son, Lykos?

I don't know.

Don't worry.

My father will get to Aegeus before that happens,
