:55:01
Are you going to spare me?
:55:06
Go.
:55:14
Another mistake, young mortal.
Now you also own his enmity.
:55:19
- And the curse.
- Why? Who is he?
:55:23
His name is Alberich,
and he was one of us.
:55:26
But greed awoke in Alberich.
:55:29
He wanted the treasure
all for himself, like you.
:55:33
When he tried to steal it...
:55:35
...we cast him out,
and stripped his immortality away.
:55:40
How about we make a bargain?
I'll only take half of the treasure...
:55:43
...you keep the rest.
Would that be fair?
:55:46
Half the treasure, all the treasure,
or just that single ring.
:55:51
It's enough to bring
the whole curse down on you.
:55:55
It's all mine now.
:56:10
Lady, you set tests for your suitors.
:56:12
Such tests are almost an insult
to their rank.
:56:16
These men who ask for your hand
are royal kings and princes.
:56:20
And I am a queen, their equal.
:56:23
I have a right in my own land
to make whatever laws I please.
:56:26
- Yes, but...
- Then tell them...
:56:28
...that the Queen of Iceland will wed
the man who passes the tests she sets.
:56:32
And who can defeat her
in single combat.
:56:34
But no man can hope to succeed
at such tasks, majesty.
:56:38
One man will succeed.
And one man will marry me.
:56:43
And I will know that man
as soon as I see him. You may go.
:56:56
You are thinking of the man you met
on the night the star fell, aren't you?
