Eurus continent...
United Kingdom, Province of London...
Camelot, Jang mansion...
Entrance to the mansion...
- Arthur Treadway (leaving the mansion with a group behind him): Don't leave a trace of our presence, make it look like it was one of the families that are not on our side...
- Arthur's men (nod): Yes, sir! (rush to execute the order while Arthur returns to the port)
The next day, early in the morning...
Province of London, Camelot...
Royal Palace...
Garden...
- Arthur Treadway (enters the garden, looks around) "This palace is destroyed because of Aca and there are no more servants here..." (looks at the garden, smiles) "It's my mother's garden, she used to take care of it. I don't know why amazons like gardens, but they are very difficult women to deal with..."
- Some horses (making noises in the stables)
- Arthur Treadway (looking at the stables in the distance) "Horses...? Didn't they die?!" (smiles): Wait, Maximus may be alive too, the indomitable horse of more than 30 years of life... (goes to the stable)
In the city's port...
Royal ship...
Prow...
- Elder Darkblood (steps out of the ship, looks at Lancelot and Persival): Where is the young master?
- Prince Persival Treadway (looks at her, smiles): Let's stop the charade! He's arranging a surprise for you, he knows of your feelings...
- Elder Darkblood (looking at him, blushes) "WHAT?! HE KNOWS???": What are you talking about...
- Lancelot Chamberlain (punches Persival, sighs): What a lack of respect for an elder, Persival! Forgive him elder, the lord left very early, he went to see the palace, something punctual?
- Prince Persival Treadway (with a bruise in his cheek, looks at Lancelot): Hey! You know I'm a prince, don't you?!
- Elder Darkblood (with a red face, clears her throat then looks at Lancelot) "This Persival is unbearable...!": The elders of the Blake and Glayder's house invited me to the Jing manor, and I believe it is to pressure me and Jing to vote for their grandchildren...
- Lancelot and Persival (exchange glances): We will inform him...
In the royal palace...
Stables...
- Arthur Treadway (enters, sees the horses): Very beautiful, after 14 years they are still alive... (looks to the back of the stables): But I am looking for someone else! I am here to see the winged horse of the king, the horse that only the chosen ones can tame... (goes towards the back)
- Arthur Treadway (opens the door, sees a huge black horse, with red eyes, and wings, tries to get closer)
- The horse (afraid, flies and crushes the ceiling, flees towards the forest)
Minutes later...
In the forest...
- Arthur Treadway (looking for the horse) "If this horse accepts me, I will definitely have the approval of the council of elders and the Temple. That horse can only be tamed by the rightful successor to the throne."
- The horse (behind Arthur, runs towards him and throws him against a tree) "Stop following me, bastard!"
- Arthur Treadway (breaks the tree, sees that the horse is running towards him): Maximus, wait! It's me, little Arthur... (the horse continues running): Wait, okay...! Son of Andromeda and Heinrich?
- The horse (running towards Arthur, with blood in his eyes) "Try again, you idiot with a girl's face!"
- Arthur Treadway (backing off, with one hand in front) "Help me, Light...": Ahem, I remembered! It's me, Arthur Treadway, the 34th patriarch of the Treadways, son of Pendragon, master of your ancestor, Pegasus...
- The horse (stop running, looks at Arthur)
- Arthur Treadway (slowly approaches) "Thank you, Light": See? I'm not an enemy... (touches the horse, pets the animal): Why were you playing hard?
- The horse (headbutts Arthur in the chest) "What did you say to me, kid?!"
- Arthur Treadway (with pain): All right, I get it! Forgive me... (looking at the horse) "This horse understands living beings, no matter the language...": Can I?
- The horse (lowers his head, crouching before Arthur) "You have grown up little king Thur..."
- Arthur Treadway (rides the horse, laughing with joy): Maximus! Remember when I was a child, and my father made me ride you? (laughing, he changes his countenance to a serious face): Let's go back, Maximus! The others must be looking for me...
- Arthur Treadway (riding Maximus, rides and Maximus takes flight, and goes towards the port)
In the port...
In front of the royal ship...
- Elder Windsor Ashura (looks at the clock, sighs): Stay calm young miss! The king will be here soon. And as soon as he arrives we will go to this meeting...
- Elder Chamberlain (looking at Heilla): Why don't you go ahead and we'll meet you there? No one will harm you, Lancelot and Persival can go with you if they want...
- Elder Darkblood (looks at Lancelot and Persival, sighs): All right, but don't be late! (gets into her carriage)
- Persival Treadway (walking, looks at elder Chamberlain): Since when did we become nannies?
- Lancelot Chamberlain (walking besides Persival, sighs): PERSIVAL!!! Respect!
- Elder Darkblood (inside the carriage): I heard that!
- Lancelot and Persival (run to the carriage, and leave)
A few hours later...
- Arthur Treadway and Maximus (land in front of the royal ship)
- Windsor, Elder Yukimura, and Elder Chamberlain (with pale faces and open mouths)
- Arthur Treadway (gets off his horse, looks at both of them): What happened?
- Windsor, Elder Yukimura and Elder Chamberlain (exchange glances) [Was he riding the winged horse of the kings?!]: Nothing, master...
- Arthur Treadway (looking at them): Where are the others?
- Elder Yukimura (clears his throat): Young master, they went to the Jing house. Elder Heilla thinks that elder Glayder and Blake invited her to pressure her and Elder Jing to ally with them...
- Arthur Treadway (looking at them, smiles): Great, come on! Let's hope they take their grandchildren with them...
