300:00:39,480 --> 00:00:44,99915 years afterSuriyothai passed away,

400:00:45,159 --> 00:00:48,318Prince Bayinnongascended to the throne

700:00:56,279 --> 00:00:59,958taking over northern citieson his way to the kingdom of Ayutthaya.

800:01:00,119 --> 00:01:03,159Once King Bayinnong had control

over Kampaengphet,

900:01:03,320 --> 00:01:06,278Sukhothai and Sawankhalok,

1000:01:06,439 --> 00:01:11,599he led his forcesto the northern kingdom of Phitsanulok.

00:03:06,399 --> 00:03:09,799and to place King Chakkraphatupon the throne.

2700:03:09,960 --> 00:03:14,719Now, in Phitsanulok'sdarkest hour,

2800:03:14,880 --> 00:03:18,878Ayutthaya has abandoned us.

2900:03:19,039 --> 00:03:21,599If our kingdomscannot look after each other,

3000:03:21,759 --> 00:03:26,838then Phitsanulok and Ayutthaya

3100:03:26,999 --> 00:03:30,438

can no longer be allies.

3200:04:27,079 --> 00:04:29,798King Thammarachahas called a truce.

3300:04:30,879 --> 00:04:33,958Victory is ours.

3400:05:42,559 --> 00:05:46,598

I've faced many skilled warriors,

3500:05:48,119 --> 00:05:51,199but you're the finest.

3600:05:51,360 --> 00:05:56,478I still recall our fightat Makhamjom.

3700:05:56,639 --> 00:06:00,158

If the King of Praehadn't helped you,

3800:06:00,319 --> 00:06:02,238I would have killed you.

3900:06:02,399 --> 00:06:05,759So what say you?


4/106

4000:06:05,919 --> 00:06:08,479Will you side with Hongsawadeeor Ayutthaya?

4100:06:08,640 --> 00:06:12,918Phitsanulok is no longer an enemyof Hongsawadee.

4200:06:13,079 --> 00:06:16,319It's not my desire to force you.

4300:06:16,479 --> 00:06:22,238Is that why you must take my son,Ong Dam, as collateral?

4400:06:24,079 --> 00:06:27,839I swearbefore the heavens above

4500:06:27,999 --> 00:06:30,478that I,Bayinnong Kayodinoratha,

4600:06:30,639 --> 00:06:34,439will raise Ong Damas if he were my own son.

4700:06:34,599 --> 00:06:37,439

No one shall harm him.

4800:06:37,599 --> 00:06:40,758If I fail in this promise,

4900:06:40,919 --> 00:06:42,718may the heavens strike me down.

5000:07:01,959 --> 00:07:05,718The King of Hongsawadee,

ruler of all lands,

5100:07:05,879 --> 00:07:09,558has issued a royal decree...

5200:07:09,719 --> 00:07:15,719to remove his Royal HighnessPrince Naresuan,


5/106

5300:07:15,879 --> 00:07:18,838son of King Thammaracha,

5400:07:19,000 --> 00:07:22,038to be fostered at Hongsawadee

5500:07:22,199 --> 00:07:25,598as a royal hostage.

5600:07:35,079 --> 00:07:37,919No, son. Don't go.

5700:07:38,079 --> 00:07:40,799Don't go! I forbid you!

5800:07:46,799 --> 00:07:49,558Ong Dam, my son.

5900:09:37,559 --> 00:09:42,198Haven't you learned to show respect,young prince?

6000:09:42,359 --> 00:09:44,958I show my respect...

6100:09:45,119 --> 00:09:48,958to those who deserve it.

6200:09:51,199 --> 00:09:56,078Wise words for such a young boy.

6300:09:56,239 --> 00:09:58,758Who taught you to speak like that?

6400:09:58,920 --> 00:10:02,358My heart is my only teacher.

6500:10:02,519 --> 00:10:07,878Very well. I will not force youto do as others do.

6600:10:08,039 --> 00:10:13,638If anyone else were to doas you have...


6/106

6700:10:13,799 --> 00:10:16,838they would be executed.

6800:10:17,799 --> 00:10:21,118After taking control of Phitsanulok,

6900:10:21,279 --> 00:10:27,478King Bayinnong led his armiesto attack Ayutthaya.

7000:10:28,719 --> 00:10:33,118AYUTTHAYA

7100:11:01,359 --> 00:11:03,078Fire!

7200:11:03,239 --> 00:11:05,878Don't let them

just walk into our city!

7300:11:55,479 --> 00:11:58,318Ayutthaya is well protected.

7400:11:58,479 --> 00:12:02,358We cannot penetrate their walls.

7500:12:02,519 --> 00:12:05,398Do you know why?

7600:12:06,719 --> 00:12:10,998Because the Ayutthayan armyis fearless.

7700:12:11,159 --> 00:12:14,238Your uncle, King Chakkraphat,

7800:12:14,399 --> 00:12:19,558and Prince Ramesuan

are smart warriors.

7900:12:20,759 --> 00:12:24,318Wars are not wonby weapons alone.

8000:12:27,479 --> 00:12:30,358They are won


7/106

through intelligence.

8100:12:55,679 --> 00:12:59,478SANPET PRASAT PALACE

8200:13:12,839 --> 00:13:18,798Ramesuan, how much longermust we continue to fight?

8300:13:21,599 --> 00:13:23,838The rainy seasonis almost upon us.

8400:13:23,999 --> 00:13:30,358With the first drops of rain...

8500:13:30,519 --> 00:13:33,557the Hongsawadee armywill return home.

8600:13:33,719 --> 00:13:38,357By then,Ayutthaya will be destroyed.

8700:13:38,519 --> 00:13:42,197Our army is smaller than theirs.

8800:13:42,359 --> 00:13:46,037I recommend we stand and fight.

8900:13:46,199 --> 00:13:50,837Soon the floods

9000:13:50,999 --> 00:13:54,677will wash away their forces.

9100:13:54,839 --> 00:14:01,958By such time everyone in Ayutthayawill have perished.

9200:14:02,119 --> 00:14:04,998King Bayinnonghas proposed an end to this war.

9300:14:05,159 --> 00:14:10,478We shall hear his proposal.

9500:14:14,999 --> 00:14:17,478between Atsadawaatand Nakphramain Temples.

9600:14:20,598 --> 00:14:23,038I once sent word

9700:14:23,198 --> 00:14:28,998requesting both friendshipand two white elephants

9800:14:29,159 --> 00:14:31,837for my kingdom.

99

00:14:31,998 --> 00:14:35,557However, you did not oblige.

10000:14:35,719 --> 00:14:42,638So I had to bring an attackupon your kingdom.

10100:14:42,799 --> 00:14:48,437Now I'm requestingfour white elephants.

10200:14:48,599 --> 00:14:50,998How do you find this?

10300:14:51,159 --> 00:14:53,758Will you accept my proposalor not?

10400:14:53,918 --> 00:14:57,478If you truly area magnificent king,

10800:15:18,078 --> 00:15:21,598Prince Ramesuanmust also return with me.

10900:15:21,758 --> 00:15:24,917If you do as I ask,I will lead my army out of here.

11000:15:25,078 --> 00:15:28,757Prince Ramesuan must remain here.He is heir to the throne.

11100:15:28,918 --> 00:15:32,597Prince Mahincan take on his responsibilities.

11200:15:32,758 --> 00:15:35,477If they remain together,

11300:15:35,638 --> 00:15:41,558your eventual death could resultin a bitter power struggle,

11400:15:41,719 --> 00:15:45,077leaving your people

in a difficult position.

11500:15:45,238 --> 00:15:47,358I swear

11600:15:47,519 --> 00:15:52,278that I will foster Prince Ramesuanas if he were my own.

11700:15:52,439 --> 00:15:57,557

11800:15:57,718 --> 00:16:00,798I shall not stop you.

11900:16:00,959 --> 00:16:03,678But you must release my people

12100:16:07,639 --> 00:16:10,717so they may protect my city.

12200:16:10,878 --> 00:16:13,477It will be done

12300:16:13,639 --> 00:16:18,557if I may have Lord Chakriand Lord Sunthornsongkram

12400:16:18,719 --> 00:16:22,517so they can servePrince Ramesuan.

12500:16:22,678 --> 00:16:26,237

I take ityou have no objections.

12600:17:13,519 --> 00:17:17,397PHITSANULOK

12700:17:42,719 --> 00:17:46,037Do not fear for our son.

12800:17:46,198 --> 00:17:50,837

King Bayinnong pledgedto care for Ong Dam

12900:17:50,998 --> 00:17:53,558as if he were his own son.

13000:17:54,759 --> 00:17:57,557A promisecannot alleviate my fears.

131

00:17:57,718 --> 00:18:01,557He still lies in the heartlandof the enemy.

13200:18:03,439 --> 00:18:07,877Hongsawadee is not our enemy.

13300:18:24,919 --> 00:18:27,238

14600:20:04,158 --> 00:20:05,557Leave nationality out of this.


12/106

14700:20:05,719 --> 00:20:08,117Money is irrelevantto your birthplace.

14800:20:08,278 --> 00:20:12,557Have pity on me.I have no money.

14900:20:13,959 --> 00:20:16,718Thief! Thief! Thief!

15800:21:25,999 --> 00:21:27,557

Why must you do this to each other?

15900:21:27,718 --> 00:21:31,198He's always stealing things.He needs to be taught a lesson.

16000:21:31,358 --> 00:21:34,397- What has he stolen from you?


13/106

- Food, Your Highness.

16100:21:34,558 --> 00:21:38,357He's probably hungry.Is a little food too much to ask?

16200:21:38,518 --> 00:21:40,798We're all Siamese here.

16300:21:42,278 --> 00:21:44,717I'm no longer Siamese.

16400:21:44,878 --> 00:21:49,877King Bayinnong has granted meHongsawadee citizenship.

16500:21:50,038 --> 00:21:53,237I didn't know a Siamese could betrayhis nationality so easily.

16600:21:53,399 --> 00:21:58,237I'll stay where I receive benefits.

16700:22:01,558 --> 00:22:04,957If I'm not mistaken,you're Ong Dam, right?

16800:22:05,118 --> 00:22:06,957And how about your father?

16900:22:07,119 --> 00:22:09,077Aren't we here

17000:22:09,238 --> 00:22:13,958because your fathersided with Hongsa?

17100:22:14,918 --> 00:22:18,238Since you asked me

to spare the kid, I will.

17200:22:18,398 --> 00:22:21,037But if he eversteals from me again,

17300:22:21,198 --> 00:22:23,718then even God can't save him.


14/106

17400:22:23,879 --> 00:22:26,478I'll beat him to death.

18000:23:35,918 --> 00:23:38,237Why do you refuse to bow

18100:23:38,398 --> 00:23:41,237to the son of Hongsawadee royalty?

18200:23:41,398 --> 00:23:44,078If you insist

on fighting our customs,

18300:23:44,239 --> 00:23:49,438then I will force youto your knees.

18400:23:49,598 --> 00:23:51,157Then come try it.

21000:26:26,878 --> 00:26:29,957and you'll smell like roses.

21100:26:31,878 --> 00:26:34,797Or maybe you'd like some rubies.

21200:26:34,958 --> 00:26:37,877

Hold on.The reason I called you

21300:26:38,038 --> 00:26:42,197is not to make a purchase.

21400:26:43,158 --> 00:26:46,877I want to hear news of my son,


17/106

Prince Naresuan.

21500:26:47,038 --> 00:26:51,957You were in Hongsawadee.You must have heard something.

21600:26:52,118 --> 00:26:53,597Bring me the bird.

21700:26:53,758 --> 00:26:56,557Your Highness.

21800:26:59,638 --> 00:27:01,997Here, Your Highness.

21900:27:05,878 --> 00:27:10,797If you have any newsregarding Prince Naresuan,

22100:27:14,758 --> 00:27:18,437You will be rewarded well.

22200:27:18,598 --> 00:27:20,917Yes, Your Highness.

223

00:27:28,398 --> 00:27:31,317Is this the weapons school?

22400:27:31,478 --> 00:27:36,557This is where King Bayinnongpointed to.

22500:27:37,518 --> 00:27:42,237It looks more like a templewith an old sleeping monk.

22600:27:49,918 --> 00:27:51,717Father.

22700:27:51,878 --> 00:27:53,597He looks fast asleep.

22800:27:53,758 --> 00:27:55,277


18/106

Father?

22900:27:55,438 --> 00:27:57,557It'll be noon by the time he wakes.

23000:27:57,718 --> 00:28:01,517Old monks are always falling asleep.

23100:28:06,358 --> 00:28:09,957Ouch!Who hit me?

23200:28:10,118 --> 00:28:15,597Why have you interruptedmy meditation?

23300:28:23,878 --> 00:28:29,037King Bayinnong sent me.

23400:28:29,198 --> 00:28:34,997Oh, you must be Ong Dam,Prince of Phitsanulok.

23500:28:35,158 --> 00:28:39,197However, King Bayinnongsaid you'd arrive later.

23600:28:39,358 --> 00:28:41,557Aside from being sleepy,

he's forgetful too.

23700:28:41,718 --> 00:28:44,517And who are you, foul mouth?

23800:28:44,678 --> 00:28:48,397I don't know my name.

23900:28:48,558 --> 00:28:53,157My parents died

before I can remember.

24000:28:53,318 --> 00:28:56,677Then I will call you Bunthing,

24100:28:56,838 --> 00:28:58,717because merit has abandoned you.


19/106

24200:28:58,878 --> 00:29:05,517Why did King Bayinnongsend me to you?

24300:29:05,678 --> 00:29:10,317He has asked me to educate you.

24400:29:10,478 --> 00:29:15,117In the future,you're to be King of Ayutthaya.

24500:29:15,278 --> 00:29:20,397You must be more skilledthan any other warrior.

24600:29:20,558 --> 00:29:25,797That is the royal orderof King Bayinnong.

24700:29:25,958 --> 00:29:30,117You shall cometo my temple tomorrow.

24800:29:30,278 --> 00:29:31,697It is the templenear the Yodia gates.

24900:29:31,758 --> 00:29:36,597There I will teach you

the King's Law.

25000:29:58,158 --> 00:29:59,997This must be the temple.

25100:30:00,958 --> 00:30:05,236This is the only templein front of the Yodia gates.

25200:30:16,878 --> 00:30:20,197

Stop.What do you want?

25300:30:20,358 --> 00:30:26,677Um, we're looking for Yodia Temple.

25400:30:26,838 --> 00:30:30,117Is this the Yodia Temple?


20/106

25500:30:30,278 --> 00:30:35,997Yes, silly.But you can't enter until you pay me.

25600:30:36,158 --> 00:30:38,397What?We don't have any money.

25700:30:38,557 --> 00:30:40,797Then you cannot enter.Go away!

25800:30:40,958 --> 00:30:43,757That's enough, Manechan.

25900:30:44,758 --> 00:30:46,557Don't you know who this is?

26000:30:46,718 --> 00:30:49,676Yes, he's Prince Naresuanof Phitsanulok.

26100:30:49,838 --> 00:30:53,916If you know who he is,why don't you bow to him?

26200:30:54,078 --> 00:30:57,877Go and apologize to him now.

26300:30:59,957 --> 00:31:03,837No? Akiyami,bring me my cane.

26400:31:03,998 --> 00:31:06,357Yes, sir.

26500:31:18,678 --> 00:31:21,597Manechan.

26600:31:39,398 --> 00:31:42,196Do you see that sickle over there?

26700:31:46,158 --> 00:31:48,157Go pick it up.

268


21/106

00:31:53,398 --> 00:31:55,197What do you want me to do with it?

26900:31:55,357 --> 00:31:57,997Cut the grass, of course.

27000:31:58,158 --> 00:32:00,477There.Do you see that grass?

27100:32:00,638 --> 00:32:03,237Trim it up.

27200:32:12,038 --> 00:32:13,917I will do it.

27300:32:14,078 --> 00:32:18,517No, I asked Ong Dam to do it.Not you, Bunthing.

27400:32:27,997 --> 00:32:30,997I thought you were going to train mein weapons.

27500:32:31,157 --> 00:32:34,237What is that in your hands?

27600:32:37,638 --> 00:32:41,596- A sickle.

- That is a weapon.

27700:32:41,758 --> 00:32:44,997You call that rusty old thinga weapon?

27800:32:49,998 --> 00:32:55,197Even a sickle is a weaponin the right hands.

279

00:32:55,358 --> 00:32:59,437I believe you.Will you teach us how to fight?

28000:32:59,598 --> 00:33:01,756If you truly want to learn,

28100:33:01,918 --> 00:33:04,476


22/106

then first you must be ordained

28200:33:04,637 --> 00:33:06,997as a monk in this temple.

28300:33:07,158 --> 00:33:09,036No different from any other student.

28400:33:09,198 --> 00:33:12,637As for that foulmouthed boy,he will be a temple boy.

28500:33:49,877 --> 00:33:51,637What are you waiting for,Bunthing?

28600:33:51,797 --> 00:33:54,836You'll be late for your studies.

28700:33:59,197 --> 00:34:04,317The Shwedagon Pagodacontains sacred relics.

28800:34:04,478 --> 00:34:11,877It holds eight strandsof Kotama Buddha's hair

28900:34:12,038 --> 00:34:13,917in addition to other items.

29000:34:14,078 --> 00:34:20,237Your first lesson is tactile warfare.

29100:34:20,398 --> 00:34:23,516There are six ways to move troops.

29200:34:23,678 --> 00:34:28,276The first, Palace Procession,

29300:34:28,437 --> 00:34:31,517which is called"Prasat Ta Phra Yu Ha"

29400:34:31,678 --> 00:34:33,597and is in the formationof a triangle.


23/106

29500:34:33,757 --> 00:34:40,557There are 20 gatesinto the kingdom of Hongsawadee.

29600:34:40,718 --> 00:34:43,557King Bayinnong is locatedin the center of the city.

29700:34:43,718 --> 00:34:45,077King Bayinnongcopied the wall of Ayutthaya...

29800:34:45,238 --> 00:34:51,596The second,the Mupinta procession formation.

29900:34:51,757 --> 00:34:55,196It's shaped like a two-faced drum.

30000:34:55,358 --> 00:34:59,397The fifth lesson,the Teejala procession formation.

30100:34:59,557 --> 00:35:01,876The troop formation is similar to ariver.

30200:35:48,878 --> 00:35:51,757Stop.

That's enough.

30300:36:00,997 --> 00:36:05,836Imagine the sword in your handsis a small bird.

30400:36:06,797 --> 00:36:08,597If you hold it too tightly,

30500:36:08,758 --> 00:36:11,836

you will crush it.

30600:36:12,797 --> 00:36:15,037Too loose...

30700:36:17,838 --> 00:36:20,476and it will fly away.


24/106

30800:36:55,798 --> 00:36:57,796Manechan!

30900:37:03,997 --> 00:37:07,356Get out of here.Be on your way.

31000:37:13,037 --> 00:37:14,916Are you okay?

31100:37:15,077 --> 00:37:17,676It hurts.

31200:37:28,438 --> 00:37:29,756Ong Dam.

31300:37:29,917 --> 00:37:33,836Help! Manechan has been bitten

by a snake.

31400:37:33,997 --> 00:37:35,076What are you waiting for?

31500:37:35,237 --> 00:37:38,997Be quick before she dies.

31600:37:40,238 --> 00:37:42,277Get up. Get up.

31700:37:46,958 --> 00:37:50,797Use this ointment on the wound.

31800:37:50,958 --> 00:37:55,516You should startto feel better tomorrow.

31900:37:56,477 --> 00:38:00,117You know there are snakes

by the old temple.

32000:38:00,278 --> 00:38:03,476Why must you play there?

32100:38:04,798 --> 00:38:12,396It's my fault. I was collectinglotus flowers for Akiyami.


25/106

32200:38:12,557 --> 00:38:19,997Father, did I break a religious doctrineby touching Manechan?

32300:38:20,158 --> 00:38:22,556That's not important now.

32400:38:22,717 --> 00:38:27,236What is importantis that you saved Manechan's life.

32500:38:47,477 --> 00:38:51,157Mangsamkiat's cockerelhas defeated Tong-Oo's.

32600:38:55,077 --> 00:38:58,117You should have sidedwith Hongsawadee.

32700:38:59,157 --> 00:39:06,596There is no other chicken in the kingdomthat can defeat the Prince's.

32800:39:09,357 --> 00:39:11,676It was born from the heavens.

32900:39:36,118 --> 00:39:37,996Ong Dam.

33000:39:45,277 --> 00:39:47,556Whose rooster is it?

33100:39:47,717 --> 00:39:48,956I don't know.

33200:39:49,117 --> 00:39:52,676But it looks feisty and strong.

33300:39:52,837 --> 00:39:54,117It's tame too.

33400:39:54,277 --> 00:39:57,436It might have escapedfrom Si-orn's house.

335


26/106

00:39:57,597 --> 00:39:59,676He raises cockerels to fight.

33600:40:02,557 --> 00:40:04,836Mr. Si-orn.

33700:40:04,997 --> 00:40:07,196Mr. Si-orn.

33800:40:11,118 --> 00:40:13,916The Five-Buddhas rooster.

33900:40:14,077 --> 00:40:15,637Is this your rooster?

34000:40:15,797 --> 00:40:17,756I only have local roosters,

341

00:40:17,917 --> 00:40:20,636not captive ones from Phitsanulok.

34200:40:20,797 --> 00:40:22,836Why do you call it a captive chicken?

34300:40:22,997 --> 00:40:27,236Because they came with the prisonersfrom Phitsanulok.

344

00:40:27,397 --> 00:40:33,116This one would makea great fighting cock.

34500:40:33,277 --> 00:40:35,397Where are you from, my pretty?

34600:40:36,997 --> 00:40:38,596Oh? Is that so?

347

00:40:38,757 --> 00:40:43,036- You can talk to chickens?- That's crazy.

34800:40:43,198 --> 00:40:47,076Who could possibly talkto chickens?

349


27/106

00:40:48,917 --> 00:40:51,116Cockfights are heldbehind the temple.

35000:40:51,277 --> 00:40:53,996Would you like to seeif yours can win?

35100:40:54,157 --> 00:40:56,917- The father wouldn't approve.- So don't tell him.

35200:41:06,877 --> 00:41:09,476Fight! Fight!

35300:41:27,757 --> 00:41:29,876Hey, I win! Pay up.

35400:41:31,397 --> 00:41:35,076

Is there a cock anywherethat can beat my redtail?

35500:41:36,357 --> 00:41:38,396This one can.

35600:41:38,557 --> 00:41:40,517Still haven't learnedyour lesson, Si-orn?

357

00:41:40,678 --> 00:41:44,036Honestly,I don't want your money.

35800:41:46,637 --> 00:41:48,676Here.

35900:41:53,797 --> 00:41:55,676Can it win?

360

00:41:55,837 --> 00:42:00,116Of course. It's Siamese.It can't lose.

36100:42:36,157 --> 00:42:38,076Get lost!

36200:42:41,517 --> 00:42:44,236


28/106

- Very good. Very good.- It's like you said...

36300:42:44,397 --> 00:42:47,516The Five-Buddhas roostercan't lose.

36400:42:47,677 --> 00:42:50,076The Siamese cockerelbeat the local one.

36500:42:51,837 --> 00:42:53,596Now I can pay off my debts.

36600:42:53,757 --> 00:42:56,156If so, then take that chicken to my pen.I'll take your money from you.

36700:42:56,317 --> 00:42:59,036

We'll see how goodthat captive rooster really is.

36800:42:59,197 --> 00:43:00,956Do you hear that?

36900:43:01,117 --> 00:43:04,356He is putting downSiamese chickens.

370

00:43:04,517 --> 00:43:06,276Don't stand for it.

37100:43:06,437 --> 00:43:08,476- Exactly, we must fight.- We must fight.

37200:43:08,637 --> 00:43:09,942- Fight.- Yes! Yes! We must fight!

37300:43:09,997 --> 00:43:12,196- We cannot give up.- Fight!

37400:43:19,357 --> 00:43:20,956Ow.

375


29/106

00:43:21,117 --> 00:43:22,676Ouch.

37600:44:11,197 --> 00:44:13,636This is for your wounds.

37700:44:13,797 --> 00:44:15,836The head monk wants to know

37800:44:15,997 --> 00:44:20,037if you're going to stoptorturing animals or not.

37900:44:21,757 --> 00:44:24,476Bunthing, take this.

38000:44:30,757 --> 00:44:35,196Put it on his whole body,not just his wounds.

38100:45:10,717 --> 00:45:16,316Bunthing, set our rooster free.

38200:45:16,477 --> 00:45:20,636Like the head monk said,forcing animals to fight is a sin.

38300:45:20,796 --> 00:45:24,356But why?

Can't we keep him as a pet?

38400:45:25,317 --> 00:45:29,036Humans and animals alikelong for freedom.

38500:45:29,197 --> 00:45:32,036We should set it free.

38600:45:32,197 --> 00:45:36,036

If I didn't have a Pali classright now,

38700:45:36,197 --> 00:45:39,076I'd go with you.

38800:45:39,237 --> 00:45:41,276So, Si-orn,


30/106

38900:45:41,437 --> 00:45:43,356where's all that money you owe me?

39000:45:44,317 --> 00:45:47,196Can I pay youin installments again?

39100:45:48,157 --> 00:45:50,596No, you cannot.

39200:45:50,757 --> 00:45:53,356If you don't pay meby this evening,

39300:45:53,517 --> 00:45:56,396you will be in pain.

394

00:45:56,557 --> 00:46:00,356Don't forget.Bring me the money

39500:46:00,517 --> 00:46:02,196before nightfall.

397

00:46:08,557 --> 00:46:10,796Si-orn.

39800:46:10,957 --> 00:46:13,676What's wrong?

39900:46:13,837 --> 00:46:15,596It's Khun Dej.

40000:46:15,757 --> 00:46:18,316

He wants the money I owe him.

40100:46:18,477 --> 00:46:21,316He won't give me an extension.

40200:46:21,477 --> 00:46:23,916If I don't pay him by tonight,


31/106

40300:46:24,077 --> 00:46:27,716he will send someone overto hurt me.

40400:46:28,837 --> 00:46:32,716Hey, will you do somethingfor me?

40500:46:32,877 --> 00:46:34,356What?

40600:46:34,517 --> 00:46:36,396Your chicken.

40700:46:36,557 --> 00:46:38,876Let it fight against Khun Dej's.

40800:46:39,037 --> 00:46:41,756

- I'm positive it will win.- I can't.

40900:46:41,917 --> 00:46:44,476Ong Dam wants me to set it free.

41000:46:44,637 --> 00:46:48,076But it must fightbefore it can be free.

411

00:46:48,237 --> 00:46:52,316Freedom only comesthrough fighting.

41200:46:52,477 --> 00:46:54,476That's just it.

41300:46:54,637 --> 00:46:58,076A captive chickenwill always be captive.

41400:46:58,237 --> 00:47:03,596It's not that it can't fight,it's just afraid.

41500:47:03,757 --> 00:47:06,276It's like the Hongsa people say...

416


32/106

00:47:06,437 --> 00:47:10,716a captive chickenwould never fight a Hongsa chicken.

41700:47:13,837 --> 00:47:15,836Wait, Si-orn.

41800:47:18,637 --> 00:47:20,436Don't say that.

41900:47:20,597 --> 00:47:23,996Though it is in captivity,it will never back down.

42000:47:24,157 --> 00:47:27,276So how will you get the chicken out

42100:47:27,437 --> 00:47:29,916without anyone knowing?

42200:47:33,317 --> 00:47:34,916I have a way.

42300:47:44,237 --> 00:47:47,396Focus on your studies, Ong Dam.

42400:48:04,117 --> 00:48:07,236Where's that cockerel of yours?

42500:48:13,957 --> 00:48:16,516What makes you sure it can win?

42600:48:17,477 --> 00:48:20,356If it loses,

42700:48:21,317 --> 00:48:24,356you can have my house.

428

00:48:25,357 --> 00:48:29,276But if it wins,then my debts are settled.

42900:48:29,437 --> 00:48:30,796Fine, then.

43000:48:30,957 --> 00:48:33,876


33/106

And you pay the owner of the cockerelfour baht of gold.

43100:48:34,036 --> 00:48:36,156- Is it a deal?- Deal!

43200:48:46,717 --> 00:48:48,995Bunthing!

43300:48:49,157 --> 00:48:51,916You disobeyed the head monk.

43400:48:52,997 --> 00:48:55,076Just this once.

43500:48:55,237 --> 00:48:59,476What you are doing is a sin.

43600:48:59,637 --> 00:49:02,596These people look downon our chicken.

43700:49:02,757 --> 00:49:05,636They say he can't beata Hongsa chicken.

43800:49:05,797 --> 00:49:11,916Without a fight, our rooster

will never earn freedom.

43900:49:16,477 --> 00:49:19,116Fight. Fight.

44000:49:50,077 --> 00:49:54,636It won.My baby won.

44100:49:54,797 --> 00:49:57,116

I told you it wouldn't lose.

44200:49:57,276 --> 00:49:58,515- Money.- What?

44300:49:58,676 --> 00:50:00,995Pay up.


34/106

44400:50:01,956 --> 00:50:03,798Now you knowthat Ayutthayan cockerels can fight!

44500:50:03,917 --> 00:50:05,795That rooster is nothing.

44600:50:05,956 --> 00:50:09,396After a face-offagainst Mangsamkiat's rooster,

44700:50:09,557 --> 00:50:12,795you'd cease your celebration.

44800:50:23,916 --> 00:50:26,756Have you learned your lesson yet?

449

00:50:26,916 --> 00:50:29,156Forcing chickens to fight is a sin.

45000:50:29,317 --> 00:50:31,636It is harmful to the animal.

45100:50:32,597 --> 00:50:35,555You may go to bed now.

45200:50:35,716 --> 00:50:37,796

See you tomorrow

45300:50:37,957 --> 00:50:39,836for early morning Pali studies.

45400:50:39,997 --> 00:50:42,316Can this rooster

45500:50:42,477 --> 00:50:46,115defeat Mangsamkiat's rooster?

45600:50:47,277 --> 00:50:48,356What?

45700:50:48,517 --> 00:50:52,316You still want a cockfight?

458


35/106

00:50:52,477 --> 00:50:57,276Can it beat Mangsamkiat's rooster?

45900:51:04,756 --> 00:51:09,476Mangsamkiat's roosteris very strong.

46000:51:09,637 --> 00:51:13,036It's bigger than yours.

46100:51:15,517 --> 00:51:17,675It can strike three times

46200:51:17,837 --> 00:51:21,876in the time it takes your roosterto strike once.

46300:51:22,036 --> 00:51:25,996If your rooster is injured,

it might lose.

46400:51:31,557 --> 00:51:33,275What are you afraid of?

46500:51:33,436 --> 00:51:36,796I want to seeMangsamkiat's rooster

46600:51:36,957 --> 00:51:38,996

lose as well.

46700:51:51,037 --> 00:51:54,435Give this to your roosteras a snack.

46800:51:54,597 --> 00:51:56,956It will make its skinimpenetrable.

469

00:51:57,117 --> 00:51:59,396Mangsamkiat's rooster'ssharp spurs

47000:51:59,557 --> 00:52:01,955won't harm your rooster.

47100:52:02,916 --> 00:52:05,275


36/106

Hold on.

47200:52:05,437 --> 00:52:08,876If you win this time...

47300:52:09,037 --> 00:52:11,796you must promise

47400:52:11,956 --> 00:52:13,875not to cockfight again.

47500:52:14,036 --> 00:52:15,756Yes, Father.

47600:52:15,917 --> 00:52:17,916Let's go.

47700:52:47,157 --> 00:52:50,756

Do you think your cockerelis any match for mine?

47800:52:50,916 --> 00:52:55,195Think wisely, Ong Dam.Mine has never lost.

47900:52:55,357 --> 00:52:58,916Mine is Siamese.It has never backed down,

48000:52:59,077 --> 00:53:02,595even if it isn't as strong.

48100:53:02,756 --> 00:53:04,716Then let them fight.

48200:53:04,877 --> 00:53:08,116Which is better? An Ayutthayanor a Hongsawadeean cockerel?

48300:53:08,277 --> 00:53:11,075Put it in the ring.

48400:53:20,637 --> 00:53:24,596Look there.Mangsamkiat's cockerel has spurs.

485


37/106

00:54:18,316 --> 00:54:23,115If your Siamese blood is still pure...

48600:54:23,276 --> 00:54:26,716then you can't give up.

48700:54:26,877 --> 00:54:30,875You must show Hongsawadee

48800:54:31,036 --> 00:54:33,476that we Siameseare afraid of no one.

48900:54:34,437 --> 00:54:38,075Take your victory swiftly.

49000:55:29,277 --> 00:55:32,036Your cockerel is quite goodto have beaten mine.

49100:55:32,196 --> 00:55:37,195It was not raised to fightfor the amusement of others

49200:55:37,357 --> 00:55:40,035or for others to gamble over.

49300:55:40,196 --> 00:55:43,956Enough.

The fight is over.

49400:55:44,116 --> 00:55:47,916Do not hold any grudgesfor the future.

49500:56:29,956 --> 00:56:33,996I am going to release you.

49600:56:34,157 --> 00:56:36,476

Anyone who can defeatthe Hongsawadee

49700:56:36,636 --> 00:56:40,235should not be oppressed.

49800:56:46,716 --> 00:56:49,715Care for your freedom


38/106

49900:56:49,876 --> 00:56:53,035and never let anyoneoppress you again.

50000:56:54,916 --> 00:56:59,995I, the ruler of the kingdomof Lan Xang,

50100:57:00,156 --> 00:57:02,475offer my greatest respectsto Your Majesty,

50200:57:02,636 --> 00:57:14,035the ruler of the kingdomof Ayutthaya.

50300:57:14,197 --> 00:57:18,475As king, I still have no heir

to my royal throne

50400:57:18,636 --> 00:57:24,515in the kingdom of Lan Xang.

50500:57:24,676 --> 00:57:29,156I request your daughterof royal lineage,

50600:57:29,316 --> 00:57:36,315

Princess Thepkasatri,to be my queen

50700:57:36,476 --> 00:57:39,075in the kingdom of Lan Xang,

50800:57:39,236 --> 00:57:43,835so that our kingdomsmay bond in friendship

509

00:57:43,996 --> 00:57:48,155now and forevermore.

51000:57:49,116 --> 00:57:57,755I know that what I ask of youis very difficult.

51100:57:59,396 --> 00:58:01,995


39/106


40/106

I will sacrifice my bodyfor my kingdom.

52500:58:57,276 --> 00:59:01,395I will sacrifice myselfjust as my mother did before me...

52600:59:02,356 --> 00:59:06,875even though it will cause megreat pain.

52700:59:21,916 --> 00:59:23,475I have asked you to come here

52800:59:24,476 --> 00:59:26,595because I have received a letterfrom your father

52900:59:27,556 --> 00:59:35,435

saying that King Chakkraphatsent his daughter

53000:59:35,597 --> 00:59:41,675as an offering to King Chaiyachetthaof Lan Xang.

53100:59:45,116 --> 00:59:46,835How do you feel about this?

532

00:59:46,996 --> 00:59:50,875Ayutthaya wants to be alliedwith the kingdom of Lan Xang,

53300:59:51,036 --> 00:59:53,235so they can fight you together.

53400:59:53,396 --> 00:59:58,475Your father believesI should try to intercept the princess

53500:59:58,636 --> 01:00:02,115before she arrives at Lan Xang.

53601:00:02,276 --> 01:00:03,995Would you not be happy

53701:00:04,156 --> 01:00:06,395


41/106

if your aunt were here with you?

53801:00:13,756 --> 01:00:17,275We have arrived in Samoso.

53901:00:17,436 --> 01:00:21,195Soon we will be in Lan Xang.

54001:00:22,716 --> 01:00:26,475I will probably never seeAyutthaya again.

54101:00:27,436 --> 01:00:29,636Do not say such things.

54201:00:29,796 --> 01:00:35,035Some day King Chaiyachetthawill have business in Ayutthaya.

54301:00:35,196 --> 01:00:39,835He will surely take you with him,Your Highness.

54401:00:39,996 --> 01:00:42,075When?

54501:00:42,236 --> 01:00:44,195It could be years from now.

54601:00:44,356 --> 01:00:48,515Or... maybe even never.

54701:01:09,396 --> 01:01:10,995What's happening?

54801:01:11,156 --> 01:01:14,035Bandits.We're being robbed.

54901:01:17,436 --> 01:01:19,635Hide the princess.Hurry.

55001:02:06,716 --> 01:02:08,035Thepkasatri.

551


42/106

01:02:24,636 --> 01:02:27,915I have received word that my sister

55201:02:28,076 --> 01:02:30,715was taken by the Hongsawadee

55301:02:30,875 --> 01:02:35,755near the Phetchaboon borderon her way to Lan Xang.

55401:02:36,716 --> 01:02:38,835You knew.

55501:03:44,276 --> 01:03:47,035Enter young princess,and sit with me.

55601:03:47,996 --> 01:03:51,195Please do not despise me.

55701:03:51,356 --> 01:03:54,075I have loved youfor a long time now.

55801:03:54,236 --> 01:03:56,635Is that why you hadyour soldiers drag me here

55901:03:56,796 --> 01:04:00,154

as if I'm some kind of object,without a soul of my own?

56001:04:00,316 --> 01:04:04,835I could not stand to see youwith the King of Lan Xang,

56101:04:04,996 --> 01:04:08,475because you are the daughterof Suriyothai,

56201:04:08,636 --> 01:04:10,034someone I respect.

56301:04:10,196 --> 01:04:12,835You're the same as King Chaiyachetthaof Lan Xang.

564


43/106

01:04:12,996 --> 01:04:14,875He loves me

56501:04:15,036 --> 01:04:20,395purely because I amthe daughter of Suriyothai.

56601:04:20,556 --> 01:04:23,635No one loves me for who I am.

56701:04:30,796 --> 01:04:37,275I cannot stand being treatedlike a mindless object

56801:04:37,436 --> 01:04:42,035just because I am the daughterof Queen Suriyothai.

56901:04:42,196 --> 01:04:44,235

If you desire my body,

57001:04:44,396 --> 01:04:46,794then you will have only my body,

57101:04:46,956 --> 01:04:50,115but not my soul.

57201:05:00,556 --> 01:05:03,635You may be a mighty king

57301:05:03,795 --> 01:05:07,234who has conquered far and wide,

57401:05:08,236 --> 01:05:12,795but you, oh mighty king,

57501:05:12,956 --> 01:05:16,075can never conquer my soul.

57601:06:15,916 --> 01:06:18,834Get out!All of you get out!

57701:06:22,716 --> 01:06:26,035My sister is dead.

578


44/106

01:06:27,156 --> 01:06:29,435She took her own life...

57901:06:30,396 --> 01:06:36,155for she refused to be a slaveto the King of Hongsawadee.

58001:06:37,116 --> 01:06:39,274This is your fault.

58101:06:39,436 --> 01:06:41,555You never consider our pride.

58201:06:41,715 --> 01:06:44,675You just give everythingto our enemies.

58301:06:53,716 --> 01:07:00,675The way King Thammaracha

requested that King Bayinnong

58401:07:01,676 --> 01:07:04,795have soldierskidnap the princess

58501:07:04,956 --> 01:07:07,555is disrespectful to us.

58601:07:10,716 --> 01:07:19,034

This means Phitsanulok has sidedwith King Bayinnong,

58701:07:19,195 --> 01:07:21,395and abandoned Ayutthaya.

58801:07:21,556 --> 01:07:26,875King Bayinnongcould easily defeat Ayutthaya

589

01:07:27,036 --> 01:07:30,274with Phitsanulok on his side.

59001:07:31,836 --> 01:07:34,875If Ayutthaya losesto King Bayinnong

59101:07:35,036 --> 01:07:39,314


45/106

we will not be farfrom danger ourselves.

59201:07:40,835 --> 01:07:45,035Lan Xang must first help King Mahinattack Phitsanulok.

59301:07:51,356 --> 01:07:52,435Attack.

59401:07:52,596 --> 01:07:55,475We must take Phitsanulok!

59501:08:05,756 --> 01:08:07,034Attack!

59601:08:17,916 --> 01:08:23,115I have learned that Prince Mahinhas sided with Lord Ram

59701:08:23,276 --> 01:08:27,675in an attempt to betrayYour Majesty.

59801:08:27,836 --> 01:08:33,435What? Prince Mahinwishes to harm me?

59901:08:33,596 --> 01:08:35,994

I was the one who requestedthat Prince Mahin

60001:08:36,156 --> 01:08:41,074come here and help mefight Lan Xang.

60101:08:41,236 --> 01:08:44,675Why would Prince Mahinwish to harm me?

60201:08:47,436 --> 01:08:51,354This is all a plan devisedby Prince Mahin and Lord Ram.

60301:08:51,516 --> 01:08:55,635Prince Mahin requested thatKing Chaiyachettha


46/106

60401:08:55,796 --> 01:08:59,355come and attack Phitsanulok,

60501:08:59,516 --> 01:09:01,275whereupon Prince Mahin

60601:09:01,436 --> 01:09:02,755PRINCE MAHIN'S CAMP

60701:09:02,916 --> 01:09:04,315intends to seize your kingdom.

60801:09:04,475 --> 01:09:08,634Prince Mahin sent usto apprehend you.

60901:09:08,796 --> 01:09:12,115I didn't know this was a trick.

61001:09:12,276 --> 01:09:17,755I am prepared to fight Lan Xangwith all my might,

61101:09:17,915 --> 01:09:22,714but is this all just a trap?

61201:09:22,875 --> 01:09:27,235That is correct, Your Majesty.

61301:09:47,516 --> 01:09:49,315Give the signal.

61401:09:50,435 --> 01:09:52,474Hey, give the signal now!

61501:09:52,635 --> 01:09:54,434Now.

61601:10:00,635 --> 01:10:04,834This must be the work of Phitsanulokand King Thammaracha.

61701:10:04,995 --> 01:10:07,635There is no one else

618


47/106

01:10:07,796 --> 01:10:10,515who would act like such a dog

61901:10:10,676 --> 01:10:13,874and bite the hand that feeds him

62001:10:14,035 --> 01:10:17,314like King Thammaracha.

62101:10:23,675 --> 01:10:26,954King Bayinnonghas ordered both of us

62201:10:27,116 --> 01:10:29,715to bring soldiers to aid youin your fight against Lan Xang.

62301:10:30,675 --> 01:10:32,154Thank you both.

62401:10:32,315 --> 01:10:36,954However, King Chaiyachettha's forcescannot win. They have retreated.

62501:10:37,115 --> 01:10:41,754Our men have travelled far.Please let us fight in return.

62601:10:41,915 --> 01:10:44,435

King Chaiyachetthais an expert in warfare.

62701:10:44,595 --> 01:10:48,474We must not underestimatethe Lan Xang army.

62801:10:48,635 --> 01:10:52,314- If we follow them, we may fail.- We must not let them escape.

62901:10:52,475 --> 01:10:54,794We received our ordersdirectly from King Bayinnong.

63001:10:54,956 --> 01:10:56,475We cannot disobey them.

631


48/106

01:10:56,636 --> 01:10:59,674We will hunt them downand show them the power of Hongsa.

63201:10:59,835 --> 01:11:02,955The soldiers of King Bayinnongcannot be defeated.

63301:11:08,996 --> 01:11:11,035There are rumors in the market

63401:11:11,195 --> 01:11:14,074that my fatherhas come to Hongsawadee.

63501:11:14,235 --> 01:11:16,314I know.

63601:11:16,475 --> 01:11:19,515

King Thammarachahas come to Hongsawadee

63701:11:19,676 --> 01:11:24,834to help Lord Phukaamand Lord Suahan.

63801:11:24,996 --> 01:11:28,234Why must he come hereto help them?

63901:11:28,395 --> 01:11:34,554If he doesn't,they will be executed.

64001:11:34,715 --> 01:11:36,474Only King Thammarachahas requested

64101:11:36,635 --> 01:11:41,154that King Bayinnong forgive them.

64201:11:42,115 --> 01:11:44,994Lord Phukaam.Lord Suahan.

64301:11:45,155 --> 01:11:49,634I commanded you to fightat Phitsanulok.


49/106

64401:11:49,795 --> 01:11:54,714It was your carelessnessthat led to a loss

64501:11:54,875 --> 01:12:00,555which has debilitatedmy kingship.

64601:12:01,516 --> 01:12:04,675No leaderwould just let this stand.

64701:12:04,835 --> 01:12:09,274Executioners, behead them now.

64801:12:12,356 --> 01:12:15,794Your Majesty,if you would be so kind...

64901:12:15,955 --> 01:12:21,434these two men fought hardin this war.

65001:12:21,595 --> 01:12:26,834I request that their lives be spared,Your Majesty.

65101:12:26,996 --> 01:12:31,194

When a king requests a life be spared,I don't interfere.

65201:12:31,355 --> 01:12:33,114You two...

65301:12:33,275 --> 01:12:37,394why have you not bowedto King Thammaracha?

654

01:12:38,396 --> 01:12:42,194As King Thammarachawas sparing the lives

65501:12:42,356 --> 01:12:45,834of Lord Phukaam and Lord Suahanin Hongsawadee,

656


50/106

01:12:45,995 --> 01:12:50,315King Mahin returnedto take the wife and daughter

65701:12:50,476 --> 01:12:54,954of King Thammarachafrom their home in Phitsanulok.

65801:12:55,956 --> 01:13:00,875Prince Mahin, listen to me.All mothers miss their children.

65901:13:01,036 --> 01:13:05,754But we are ready to obeyour fathers and our bloodline.

66001:13:05,915 --> 01:13:10,874My dear sister,this time it is evident

66101:13:11,036 --> 01:13:13,714that your husband,King Thammaracha,

66201:13:13,875 --> 01:13:18,595decided to sidewith King Bayinnong.

66301:13:18,755 --> 01:13:23,554You seem to care more

for your husband than your country.

66401:13:23,715 --> 01:13:25,874If you fight over bloodlines,

66501:13:26,035 --> 01:13:28,474then consider where my three children'salliance stands.

66601:13:28,635 --> 01:13:31,114

Do not talk to me about this,my sister.

66701:13:31,275 --> 01:13:33,115Are you coming to Ayutthayaor not?

66801:13:33,275 --> 01:13:36,074


51/106

We will return with youto Ayutthaya,

66901:13:36,235 --> 01:13:40,194as long as you knowit is not our will.

67001:13:41,275 --> 01:13:44,434Your actions todayemphasize the fissures

67101:13:44,595 --> 01:13:47,194between Phitsanulokand Ayutthaya.

67201:13:49,835 --> 01:13:53,434King Chakkraphatand Prince Mahin

673

01:13:53,595 --> 01:13:58,554have taken your wife,your daughter

67401:13:58,715 --> 01:14:03,874and one of your sonsto Ayutthaya.

67501:14:04,035 --> 01:14:07,074It's a signal that they wishto break ties with Hongsawadee.

67601:14:07,235 --> 01:14:11,554I believe this isPrince Mahin's plan.

67701:14:11,715 --> 01:14:15,154Why would you think that?

67801:14:15,315 --> 01:14:17,474He is taking revenge on me

67901:14:17,635 --> 01:14:20,234for being loyal to Hongsawadee.

68001:14:20,395 --> 01:14:23,274He accuses me

681


52/106

01:14:23,435 --> 01:14:27,354of being the reasontheir independence was lost.

68201:14:27,515 --> 01:14:29,755Does Prince Mahin not understand

68301:14:29,915 --> 01:14:34,994that none of this is because of you

68401:14:35,155 --> 01:14:38,434but because of King Chakkraphat'sstubbornness

68501:14:38,595 --> 01:14:41,754and that of the lords who supporta war against Hongsa?

68601:14:41,915 --> 01:14:44,114

They love their elephantsmore than their kingdom.

68701:14:44,275 --> 01:14:46,194Prince Mahin blames me.

68801:14:46,356 --> 01:14:50,994That is why he deceived KingChaiyachettha, King of Lan Xang,

689

01:14:51,156 --> 01:14:52,834into sending his armyto attack Phitsanulok.

69001:14:52,995 --> 01:14:56,154King Chakkraphathas broken his word.

69101:14:56,315 --> 01:14:59,994He has become an enemyof Hongsawadee.

69201:15:00,155 --> 01:15:03,994We must not forget this.

69301:15:05,795 --> 01:15:08,114Our allies

694


53/106

01:15:08,275 --> 01:15:12,194will gather seven armiesfrom the north.

69501:15:12,355 --> 01:15:15,674They will secureall necessary provisions

69601:15:15,835 --> 01:15:18,674and in the 12th month,we will attack Ayutthaya.

69701:15:19,635 --> 01:15:21,434I broke the alliance with Ayutthaya

69801:15:21,595 --> 01:15:24,714and aligned with Hongsawadee

69901:15:24,875 --> 01:15:27,235

for one reason.

70001:15:27,395 --> 01:15:31,994Ayutthaya positioned himselfas an enemy of Phitsanulok.

70101:15:32,155 --> 01:15:33,234Why would he do that?

70201:15:33,396 --> 01:15:35,434

Because he is of a differentroyal bloodline.

70301:15:35,596 --> 01:15:38,114We are descendents of Phra Ruang.

70401:15:38,275 --> 01:15:40,675As for Prince Mahin,

70501:15:40,835 --> 01:15:42,914

he is of the Suphannabhum.

70601:15:43,075 --> 01:15:45,114They are afraid

70701:15:45,275 --> 01:15:48,474that our bloodlinewill grow greater than theirs,


54/106

70801:15:48,635 --> 01:15:52,474and that we will take Ayutthayafor our own.

70901:15:52,635 --> 01:15:54,515But I don't agree

71001:15:54,675 --> 01:15:58,554with your view that Hongsa blood

71101:15:58,715 --> 01:16:01,154is thicker than Siamese blood.

71201:16:02,115 --> 01:16:03,914I believe

71301:16:04,075 --> 01:16:08,434

that leading our army to aidKing Thammaracha's attack on Ayutthaya

71401:16:08,595 --> 01:16:10,674is inappropriate.

71501:16:12,076 --> 01:16:13,674The rewards are inconsequential.

71601:16:13,835 --> 01:16:18,994

Nandabayin,your vision is narrow.

71701:16:19,155 --> 01:16:20,874Ayutthaya is in competition with us.

71801:16:21,035 --> 01:16:24,474It's a port city with rivers.

71901:16:24,635 --> 01:16:27,674

If we sit hereand allow it to prosper,

72001:16:27,835 --> 01:16:29,914we will not be able to survivelater on.

72101:16:30,875 --> 01:16:35,874


55/106

Ayutthaya and Hongsawadeeare the two most prosperous kingdoms.

72201:16:39,995 --> 01:16:42,115Later,

72301:16:42,275 --> 01:16:46,074if we decide to attack Ayutthaya,we'll face difficulty.

72401:16:46,235 --> 01:16:52,274However, now King Thammaracha hasbrought Ayutthaya to us on a platter.

72501:16:53,235 --> 01:16:56,394Without Phitsanulok,Ayutthaya is alone...

72601:16:56,555 --> 01:17:00,034

like fruit waiting to be picked.

72701:17:00,995 --> 01:17:03,834We need to pick Ayutthaya...

72801:17:03,995 --> 01:17:05,714before someone else does.

72901:17:06,875 --> 01:17:09,874Ayutthaya,

as if a piece of ripened fruit

73001:17:10,035 --> 01:17:14,034which King Bayinnonghoped to easily pick,

73101:17:14,195 --> 01:17:16,754turned out to be more difficultthan anticipated.

732

01:17:16,915 --> 01:17:21,434Weeks turned to months.Almost a year had passed.

73301:17:21,595 --> 01:17:28,434King Bayinnong's armywas unable to defeat Ayutthaya.

734


56/106

01:17:48,755 --> 01:17:51,034Hold on.Do not fire towards the temple.

73501:18:05,075 --> 01:18:07,194Quickly, send in your armyfrom Phitsanulok

73601:18:07,355 --> 01:18:09,314and crush Prince Mahinand his men.

73701:18:09,475 --> 01:18:11,354Fire. Quickly.

73801:18:11,515 --> 01:18:14,434Ayutthaya will not defeat us.

73901:18:14,595 --> 01:18:17,234

King Thammaracha,

74001:18:18,435 --> 01:18:20,194what are you waiting for?

74101:18:20,355 --> 01:18:23,674Do you still side with Ayutthaya?

74201:18:37,435 --> 01:18:40,194In the year 1569 C.E.,

74301:18:40,355 --> 01:18:43,874in the midst of a warwith the kingdom of Hongsawadee,

74401:18:44,035 --> 01:18:48,034King Chakkraphatof Ayutthaya passed away.

74501:18:48,195 --> 01:18:52,274

Royal succession placedPrince Mahin on the throne

74601:18:52,435 --> 01:18:56,154as the new King of Ayutthaya.

74701:19:15,195 --> 01:19:18,234Ong Dam, have you heard?


57/106

74801:19:18,395 --> 01:19:21,634Your grandfather,King Chakkraphat, is dead!

74901:19:21,795 --> 01:19:24,834King Chakkraphat is dead!

75001:19:33,475 --> 01:19:37,154Without your grandfather,Ayutthaya will crumble.

75101:19:37,315 --> 01:19:40,674Soon, King Bayinnong,my grandfather

75201:19:40,835 --> 01:19:44,354will siton your grandfather's throne.

75301:19:44,515 --> 01:19:48,954In the first war,you lost elephants.

75401:19:49,115 --> 01:19:50,674Now you lose your kingdom.

75501:19:50,834 --> 01:19:54,114Now you lose your kingdom!

75601:19:54,275 --> 01:19:56,194You think you are tough, huh?

75701:19:56,355 --> 01:19:58,914Then step down here and prove it!

75801:19:59,075 --> 01:20:00,994Bunthing!

75901:20:01,955 --> 01:20:04,314I'll punch you in the mouth.

76001:20:04,475 --> 01:20:09,874Don't showboat too much.All Siamese are losers.

761


58/106

01:20:14,075 --> 01:20:16,794Do not worry, Your Majesty.

76201:20:16,955 --> 01:20:19,633With King Chakkraphat's death,

76301:20:19,795 --> 01:20:23,354Prince Mahinwill ascend to the throne.

76401:20:23,515 --> 01:20:26,754He will care for the kingdom.

76501:20:26,914 --> 01:20:31,194But how will Prince Mahinfight off an entire army?

76601:20:31,355 --> 01:20:33,954Do not underestimate Prince Mahin,

Your Majesty.

76701:20:34,115 --> 01:20:37,914He will be strongwhen his time comes.

76801:20:38,075 --> 01:20:42,434He can take care of the kingdom.He will not lose.

769

01:20:42,595 --> 01:20:46,554King Bayinnong will be surprised

77001:20:46,715 --> 01:20:53,274by the effort and skillof the new King of Ayutthaya.

77101:20:53,435 --> 01:20:56,314AYUTTHAYA PALACE

772

01:20:59,995 --> 01:21:02,994Long live the King!

77301:21:05,275 --> 01:21:08,193Long live the King!

77401:21:41,635 --> 01:21:46,514Why have you not filled in the moat?


59/106

77501:21:46,675 --> 01:21:48,354When will we reach Ayutthaya?

77601:21:48,514 --> 01:21:53,234We have been working day and night,Your Majesty.

77701:21:53,395 --> 01:21:57,114How much earth can one man carry?

77801:21:57,274 --> 01:21:58,554Seven blocks, Your Majesty.

77901:21:58,715 --> 01:22:02,274Work faster.We need a bridge into Ayutthaya.

780

01:22:02,435 --> 01:22:08,754If a man dies,use his body to fill in the moat,

78101:22:08,915 --> 01:22:12,154otherwise,I shall dump you into it.

78201:22:46,275 --> 01:22:51,234King Bayinnong is lookingfor 500,000 more men

78301:22:51,395 --> 01:22:53,074to replace those who have died.

78401:22:53,234 --> 01:22:55,554King Bayinnong is mistaken

78501:22:55,714 --> 01:23:01,114if he thinks he can defeat Ayutthayaso easily.

78601:23:02,515 --> 01:23:06,234King Bayinnong should not underestimatethe Siamese.

78701:23:06,394 --> 01:23:09,594For if they are pushed too hard,


60/106

78801:23:09,755 --> 01:23:11,554they will fight back with all theirmight.

78901:23:11,715 --> 01:23:14,034You are right.

79001:23:14,195 --> 01:23:19,194If Ayutthaya can fend off King Bayinnonguntil the rainy season,

79101:23:19,355 --> 01:23:23,994then King Bayinnongwill have to return to Hongsawadee.

79201:23:24,155 --> 01:23:26,874However,

793

01:23:27,035 --> 01:23:33,594King Bayinnong will have a strategyfor defeating Ayutthaya.

79401:23:33,755 --> 01:23:37,393If King Mahin isn't careful,

79501:23:37,554 --> 01:23:41,434he could fallinto King Bayinnong's trap.

79601:23:42,395 --> 01:23:46,074We've been at war for a long time now,

79701:23:46,235 --> 01:23:48,754BAYINNONG'S CAMP

79801:23:48,914 --> 01:23:50,433since the turn of summer,

799

01:23:50,594 --> 01:23:52,473and we have yet to defeat them.

80001:23:52,634 --> 01:23:56,114Soon the monsoons will return

80101:23:56,275 --> 01:23:58,273and we will have to retreat.


61/106

80201:23:58,435 --> 01:23:59,954We underestimated King Mahin.

80301:24:00,115 --> 01:24:06,114Without King Chakkraphatand Prince Ramesuan,

80401:24:07,235 --> 01:24:12,834King Mahin is like a little birdthat fell from its nest.

80501:24:12,995 --> 01:24:17,754However, this young king

80601:24:17,915 --> 01:24:21,914has defended his kingdom well.

807

01:24:22,075 --> 01:24:28,634Your Majesty,I have served you for six years,

80801:24:28,795 --> 01:24:33,113yet I have never satisfied you.

80901:24:33,275 --> 01:24:36,953Finally I may be ableto bring you satisfaction.

81001:24:37,115 --> 01:24:41,753- What have you to say?- You must first promise me

81101:24:41,915 --> 01:24:46,034that if I am able to provide youwith a defeat over Ayutthaya

81201:24:46,195 --> 01:24:50,594like ripe fruit into your hands,

81301:24:50,755 --> 01:24:54,753you will bestow upon me a rewardworthy of my effort.

81401:24:54,914 --> 01:24:56,833You are quite bold.


62/106

81501:24:56,995 --> 01:25:02,593How dare you take advantage of meat a time like this?

81601:25:02,755 --> 01:25:04,633If I am successful,

81701:25:04,794 --> 01:25:07,594I request to beGovernor of Takong,

81801:25:07,755 --> 01:25:11,394collecting border taxesfrom those who visit

81901:25:11,555 --> 01:25:13,553the Shwedagon Pagoda.

820

01:25:13,714 --> 01:25:17,354Alright, I accept.

82101:25:18,395 --> 01:25:20,833What is your plan?

82201:25:20,995 --> 01:25:23,313Here's my plan.

82301:25:23,475 --> 01:25:26,873

I will pretend to have escapedfrom your hold

82401:25:27,035 --> 01:25:29,753and I will be your spyin Ayutthaya.

82501:25:29,915 --> 01:25:32,633King Mahinwill suspect nothing.

82601:25:32,795 --> 01:25:36,554He will place me in chargeof protecting the kingdom.

82701:25:36,714 --> 01:25:44,594I will move the most skilled soldiersto unimportant posts.


63/106

82801:25:44,755 --> 01:25:47,234Once their defenses are weakened,

82901:25:47,395 --> 01:25:51,673I will open the city doorsfor your army

83001:25:51,834 --> 01:25:55,793and you will be able to takeAyutthaya with ease.

83101:25:58,234 --> 01:26:00,634Who goes there?

83201:26:03,874 --> 01:26:06,193I am Lord Chakri.

83301:26:06,354 --> 01:26:09,793

I've escaped the Hongsa stronghold.

83401:26:09,954 --> 01:26:14,553I request an immediate audiencewith the king.

83501:26:15,995 --> 01:26:20,994I'm pleased that you have escapedfrom Hongsa to help us.

836

01:26:21,154 --> 01:26:28,234No one else is here to help usfight King Bayinnong.

83701:26:29,954 --> 01:26:32,153I swear

83801:26:32,314 --> 01:26:38,394I will give my lifein order to protect my kingdom.

83901:26:38,554 --> 01:26:43,673From here on,I give you control over our army

84001:26:43,834 --> 01:26:50,874to protect Ayutthayafrom Hongsawadee.


64/106

84101:27:11,155 --> 01:27:13,234Why are you not firing?

84201:27:13,394 --> 01:27:15,353We have no gunpowder, Your Majesty.We are waiting for...

84301:27:15,514 --> 01:27:17,754There is no need to wait.

84401:27:18,914 --> 01:27:20,833- King Thammaracha.- Your Majesty.

84501:27:20,994 --> 01:27:23,833I want you to send a messageto Lord Chakri

846

01:27:23,994 --> 01:27:27,033to contact your wife.

84701:27:27,994 --> 01:27:32,793He wants me to stealAyutthayan gunpowder for Hongsa?

84801:27:34,355 --> 01:27:39,993King Thammaracha is a prisonerjust as I am, Your Highness.

84901:27:40,154 --> 01:27:44,153If King Bayinnong's ordersare not followed,

85001:27:44,314 --> 01:27:47,394then King Thammarachawill be in danger.

85101:27:47,554 --> 01:27:49,633I am no one's prisoner.

85201:27:50,594 --> 01:27:54,713King Bayinnongmay not be able to harm you.

85301:27:54,874 --> 01:27:57,954However,


65/106

85401:27:58,114 --> 01:28:02,393if Your Highnessdoes as requested,

85501:28:02,554 --> 01:28:07,193then no harm will come toKing Thammaracha.

85601:28:07,354 --> 01:28:11,354A servant of yoursrecently passed away due to sickness.

85701:28:11,515 --> 01:28:18,033If Your Highness would permit meto hide gunpowder in her casket

85801:28:18,194 --> 01:28:22,553and let the undertaker remove itfrom the city to the burial grounds,

85901:28:22,714 --> 01:28:27,154then your husband will remain safe

86001:28:27,314 --> 01:28:31,193from King Bayinnong's wrath.

86101:29:09,235 --> 01:29:11,034Your Excellency.

86201:29:11,194 --> 01:29:13,433Your Lordship.

86301:29:13,594 --> 01:29:17,273Move the cannonsto the western wall.

86401:29:17,434 --> 01:29:20,793But Hongsa will not attackfrom that direction.

86501:29:20,954 --> 01:29:22,073There's a large riveron that side.

86601:29:22,234 --> 01:29:25,793Do not argue with me.I hold the king's sword.


66/106

86701:29:25,954 --> 01:29:29,753I believe Hongsa will attackfrom the west.

86801:29:29,914 --> 01:29:34,113Move the cannonsto the western wall.

86901:29:40,194 --> 01:29:44,793Your Majesty,I do not trust Lord Chakri.

87001:29:44,954 --> 01:29:47,313I do not believe

87101:29:47,474 --> 01:29:51,713that Lord Chakri escapedthe hold of Hongsa

87201:29:51,874 --> 01:29:53,753as he claims.

87301:29:53,914 --> 01:29:57,954If Lord Chakri did not escapefrom Hongsawadee,

87401:29:58,915 --> 01:30:01,153then why would King Bayinnong

87501:30:01,314 --> 01:30:05,033behead 30 of his soldiers

87601:30:05,195 --> 01:30:11,394and place their headsaround Panma Temple?

87701:30:11,554 --> 01:30:14,193Lord Chakri is using the king's sword...

87801:30:14,354 --> 01:30:18,033to demote soldiersback to civilians

87901:30:18,194 --> 01:30:19,953and promote civiliansto soldiers,


67/106

88001:30:20,114 --> 01:30:24,353which is reducing the strengthof our military.

88101:30:24,514 --> 01:30:28,234I have given my swordto Lord Chakri.

88201:30:28,395 --> 01:30:34,393The decisions liewith Lord Chakri alone.

88301:30:34,555 --> 01:30:36,754I trust Lord Chakri...

88401:30:36,914 --> 01:30:40,673as did King Chakkraphat.

88501:30:40,834 --> 01:30:44,953Lord Chakri can defeatthe Hongsawadee.

88601:30:45,115 --> 01:30:50,913Do not bother mewith this matter again.

88701:30:54,234 --> 01:30:58,913Leave here and meet the others

at Diamond Fort.

88801:30:59,074 --> 01:31:02,513You are to do as I saythis instant.

88901:31:15,234 --> 01:31:16,833Hurry!

89001:31:20,635 --> 01:31:24,513

What are you doing?Move to Diamond Fort.

89101:34:21,234 --> 01:34:23,353News is spreading

89201:34:23,514 --> 01:34:27,273that Ayutthaya has lost


68/106

89301:34:27,434 --> 01:34:30,033Don't be upset, Your Majesty.

89401:34:30,194 --> 01:34:32,633It is Ayutthaya's fate.

89501:34:32,794 --> 01:34:34,753It is not fate!

89601:34:34,914 --> 01:34:38,353There is a traitor in Siam.

89701:34:42,114 --> 01:34:45,953Everything is predestined.

89801:34:46,114 --> 01:34:48,633

It was inevitable.

89901:34:49,594 --> 01:34:54,193What will happen to King Mahin?

90001:34:57,474 --> 01:35:00,953I cannot say.

90101:35:01,114 --> 01:35:05,553Everything depends

on one's own fate...

90201:35:05,714 --> 01:35:12,633including the fate of kingssuch as King Mahin.

90301:37:19,194 --> 01:37:22,353Come.Sit beside me.

69/106

90701:37:51,034 --> 01:37:54,713in the hope of preservingmy kingdom.

90801:37:54,874 --> 01:37:58,112Do not feel sad or belittled.

90901:37:58,274 --> 01:38:02,193I want you to stayin Hongsawadee.

01:52:27,513 --> 01:52:31,352she who lovesand is loyal to her lineage.

100001:53:06,433 --> 01:53:08,152Your Highness.

100101:53:13,833 --> 01:53:18,072


76/106

Your Highness,your illness has reached your heart.

100201:53:18,233 --> 01:53:21,112I have prepared some medicine

100301:53:21,273 --> 01:53:24,952to rid the toxins from his body.

100401:53:25,113 --> 01:53:31,232Soon he will be better,

100501:53:32,193 --> 01:53:34,272Your Majesty.

100601:53:34,433 --> 01:53:37,152You must cure King Mahin.

1007

01:53:38,113 --> 01:53:41,072If he dies...

100801:53:41,232 --> 01:53:44,152you will be executed.

100901:53:56,673 --> 01:54:01,952Take your medicine and eat.Do not be discouraged.

1010

01:54:08,833 --> 01:54:11,512King Mahin...

101101:54:11,672 --> 01:54:14,752is nearing death.

101201:54:14,913 --> 01:54:19,672You should visit himone last time.

1013

01:54:19,833 --> 01:54:24,672Even though the Suphannabhum

101401:54:24,833 --> 01:54:30,952and Phra Ruang bloodlineshave been enemies,

101501:54:31,113 --> 01:54:37,312


77/106

the future king of Ayutthaya

101601:54:37,472 --> 01:54:41,272must learn how to forgive.

101701:54:58,753 --> 01:55:02,512Is that Prince Naresuan?

101801:55:02,673 --> 01:55:04,112Your Highness.

101901:55:04,273 --> 01:55:06,271Have you come

102001:55:06,433 --> 01:55:12,352to watch the enemyof your father die?

1021

01:55:12,513 --> 01:55:15,232It is not like that.

102201:55:15,393 --> 01:55:19,151I have only cometo see how you are.

102301:55:19,312 --> 01:55:22,912I will die soon.

1024

01:55:32,433 --> 01:55:35,232You must be happy

102501:55:35,393 --> 01:55:40,912that the Suphannabhum bloodlinewill end

102601:55:41,073 --> 01:55:44,111with my death.

1027

01:55:45,273 --> 01:55:46,871No.

102801:55:47,033 --> 01:55:54,391I don't think it's rightfor Siamese to fight each other.

102901:55:54,552 --> 01:55:59,312


78/106

Especially now.We have become colonies.

103001:55:59,472 --> 01:56:02,392We are slaves of Hongsawadee.

103101:56:02,553 --> 01:56:07,072It's not important which bloodlinerules the kingdom.

103201:56:07,233 --> 01:56:09,952What's importantis that Siamese rule Siam.

103301:56:10,113 --> 01:56:13,871We must not become slavesof another kingdom.

103401:56:16,593 --> 01:56:19,832

That's very wise, Naresuan.

103501:56:21,312 --> 01:56:24,991If only I or other noblemenin Ayutthaya

103601:56:25,152 --> 01:56:28,431thought like you...

103701:56:29,633 --> 01:56:31,711

then we wouldn't have lostour land.

103801:56:31,872 --> 01:56:36,712After hearing your words,I'm not afraid to die.

103901:56:38,832 --> 01:56:42,592Gods and angelsof heaven and earth...

104001:56:45,593 --> 01:56:52,312Naresuan shall be king

104101:56:52,473 --> 01:56:57,592and save our land in the future.

104201:56:59,393 --> 01:57:03,391


79/106

It is now my time to pass away.

104301:57:04,953 --> 01:57:13,951May Prince Naresuan one day rule.

104401:57:22,233 --> 01:57:26,551King Bayinnong,ruler of all lands...

104501:57:26,712 --> 01:57:30,712issued a royal noticestating that King Mahin

104601:57:30,873 --> 01:57:35,512has passed away due to illness.

104701:57:35,673 --> 01:57:39,232It is not true!I don't believe it!

104801:57:39,393 --> 01:57:42,152I don't believe my brother diedof illness.

104901:57:42,313 --> 01:57:45,472It was those treacherousHongsawadee!

105001:57:45,632 --> 01:57:47,912

They killed him!

105101:57:48,073 --> 01:57:53,152That's right.You killed King Mahin!

105201:58:18,873 --> 01:58:21,112What is that?

105301:58:21,272 --> 01:58:23,432

It looks like a casket.

105401:58:23,593 --> 01:58:27,871Maybe it is oneof the head monk's relatives.

105501:58:28,032 --> 01:58:29,951Or maybe his wife.


80/106

105601:58:30,113 --> 01:58:32,151When did the head monkget married?

105701:58:32,313 --> 01:58:36,152Before he was ordained.

105801:58:40,392 --> 01:58:42,271- No, it is not a casket.- Then what is it?

105901:58:42,432 --> 01:58:46,551Belongings which King Bayinnongacquired from Ayutthaya.

106001:58:46,713 --> 01:58:49,831What kind of treasure?Why would he keep it at the temple?

106101:58:49,992 --> 01:58:52,271Why don't we sneak inand take a look tonight?

106201:58:54,192 --> 01:58:56,712The head monk sleeps very heavily.

106301:58:56,873 --> 01:58:57,952Once he is asleep,

106401:58:58,113 --> 01:59:01,751you two can climbthough that window

106501:59:01,912 --> 01:59:03,472and I will keep watch.

106602:00:27,072 --> 02:00:28,632A gun.

106702:00:28,793 --> 02:00:32,671What kind is it?It is so long.

106802:00:33,952 --> 02:00:36,872I think it is...


81/106

106902:00:37,033 --> 02:00:39,192a royal gun.

107002:00:39,353 --> 02:00:42,431Whose gun is it?

107102:00:43,672 --> 02:00:45,591I don't know.

107202:00:47,672 --> 02:00:51,511It looks like this part opens.

107302:01:13,592 --> 02:01:15,392Stop there.

107402:01:19,072 --> 02:01:20,632Don't touch that.

107502:01:20,792 --> 02:01:23,031You have not learned your lesson.

107602:01:23,192 --> 02:01:26,551It is because you touched those weaponsthat you must be punished.

107702:01:33,072 --> 02:01:38,551You did something which is prohibited.

107802:01:39,872 --> 02:01:46,832You must nevertouch them again.

107902:02:05,353 --> 02:02:09,472Tell me what is on your mind.

108002:02:10,792 --> 02:02:14,071Whose weapons are those...

108102:02:15,152 --> 02:02:18,271and why can't I touch them?

108202:02:25,073 --> 02:02:30,791They are royal relicsbelonging to the King of Ayutthaya.

1083


82/106

02:02:30,952 --> 02:02:35,392Only a man with the greatnessof King Chakkraphat

108402:02:35,552 --> 02:02:38,191has the right to touch them.

108502:02:38,352 --> 02:02:42,271Why are they being stored here?

108602:02:42,432 --> 02:02:45,471King Bayinnongbrought them from Ayutthaya

108702:02:45,632 --> 02:02:49,352after defeating the Siamese.

108802:02:49,513 --> 02:02:53,031However, there were many omens,

108902:02:53,193 --> 02:02:55,552and a soothsayer prophesized

109002:02:55,712 --> 02:02:58,471that King Bayinnong was not yet virtuousenough to possess the weapons.

109102:02:58,632 --> 02:03:01,312With his vast kingdom,

109202:03:01,472 --> 02:03:07,391he must be virtuous enoughto possess them.

109302:03:07,552 --> 02:03:08,911That is true.

109402:03:09,072 --> 02:03:11,791But he is yet to be as virtuous

as King Chakkraphat.

109502:03:11,952 --> 02:03:14,631That is what brought on the omen.

109602:03:14,792 --> 02:03:17,072But why keep them here?


83/106

109702:03:17,232 --> 02:03:20,512It was by order of the soothsayer.

109802:03:20,672 --> 02:03:25,631He said that I mustoversee these weapons.

109902:03:25,792 --> 02:03:28,391He foretold

110002:03:28,552 --> 02:03:30,991that there would be someonewith virtue

110102:03:31,152 --> 02:03:33,952strong enough to possess them.

110202:03:34,112 --> 02:03:37,431

Upon that day,my duty will be fulfilled.

110302:03:37,592 --> 02:03:40,831I need your help with something.

110402:03:40,992 --> 02:03:42,631What is it?

110502:03:42,792 --> 02:03:46,432

I have a student who is an orphan.

110602:03:46,592 --> 02:03:48,511I have looked after hersince she was an infant.

110702:03:48,672 --> 02:03:51,791Now she is all grown up

110802:03:51,952 --> 02:03:54,711

and is almost a fully-grown woman.

110902:03:54,872 --> 02:03:59,511I would like to request thatYour Majesty take her into the palace.

111002:03:59,672 --> 02:04:03,591You need not worry.


84/106

I shall take her in.

111102:04:03,752 --> 02:04:05,911What is the girl's name?

111202:04:06,072 --> 02:04:07,711Manechan.

111302:04:07,872 --> 02:04:10,671She will be very pleasedto hear the news.

111402:04:10,833 --> 02:04:13,911No way.I don't want to go.

111502:04:14,072 --> 02:04:16,111You cannot stay here anymore.

111602:04:16,272 --> 02:04:18,711You are nearly a woman now.

111702:04:18,872 --> 02:04:22,431And as a woman,you cannot remain amongst monks.

111802:04:22,592 --> 02:04:24,191Do you understand?

111902:04:24,352 --> 02:04:26,872If you remain here,

112002:04:27,032 --> 02:04:29,871you will become nothing morethan a temple hand.

112102:04:30,033 --> 02:04:34,071However, if you give your serviceto Princess Suphankalaya,

112202:04:34,232 --> 02:04:37,152you will become a womanof the palace.

112302:04:37,313 --> 02:04:40,192Don't you love me anymore?


85/106

112402:04:40,352 --> 02:04:43,511Whether I love you or not,

112502:04:43,672 --> 02:04:46,711you still must staywith Princess Suphankalaya.

112602:04:48,632 --> 02:04:51,071Let her go.

112702:05:18,192 --> 02:05:19,191What's happened?

112802:05:19,352 --> 02:05:22,591The head monk is sending me away

112902:05:22,752 --> 02:05:25,911to be Princess Suphankalaya's

servant.

113002:05:26,072 --> 02:05:29,351I can't live here anymore.

113102:05:29,512 --> 02:05:31,911What should I do?

113202:05:32,072 --> 02:05:34,912That's wonderful.

113302:05:35,072 --> 02:05:38,752You'll get to learnlots of new things.

113402:05:38,912 --> 02:05:43,471I don't want to go.I want to stay here with you two.

113502:05:43,632 --> 02:05:46,631

You can visitwhenever you are missing us.

113602:05:46,792 --> 02:05:50,871Whenever Worajan comes to our temple,you can come with her.

113702:05:51,032 --> 02:05:54,671


86/106

Go. Here you will alwayseat leftovers from monks.

113802:05:54,832 --> 02:05:58,031You will eat much better there.

113902:05:58,192 --> 02:06:01,991No.I won't leave you two.

114002:06:02,152 --> 02:06:06,992Just go.We're not going anywhere.

114102:06:07,152 --> 02:06:09,311We will still be here at the temple,
