I cannot.
1:05:05
We're all God's instruments,
like it or not.

1:05:08
All we can do is keep faith.
1:05:10
Though I sometimes
find that hard.

1:05:14
We all fail at faith, Aramis.
1:05:16
That's why we must eat,
drink, and make love to life.

1:05:21
As king, you can have
a thousand ploughmaids.

1:05:25
Porthos! You miss the point!
1:05:27
What point?
1:05:28
Phillippe is right.
1:05:30
We haven't given him a reason
1:05:33
to do what we ask.
1:05:35
I understand
your reason, Athos.

1:05:37
You do?
1:05:39
Porthos told me about your son.
1:05:44
You think that's why I'm here?
1:05:49
Yes, Raoul is my reason,
but not the way you think.

1:05:54
Once, all of us believed
1:05:56
in serving something
greater than ourselves.

1:06:00
Aramis had his faith.
1:06:02
Porthos, his lust for life.
1:06:05
D'Artagnan, his devotion.
1:06:07
And I had Raoul.
1:06:09
But we all had a common dream -
1:06:12
that one day we would
be able to serve a king

1:06:15
worthy of the throne.
1:06:18
It is what we dreamt,
1:06:21
what we bled for,
1:06:24
and what we have waited
a lifetime for.

1:06:27
I taught Raoul
to believe in that dream.

1:06:32
And now my son is dead.
1:06:37
So I am here to find out
if his life was in vain.

1:06:42
And the only one who can
answer that question is you.
