This victory is for you, Fuss.

Part one, Theodora's Path. Chapter 1.
0:56
My tale begins long ago, centuries
0:58
before you were born.
1:01
There was a desert then, and in that
1:03
desert was a white egg.
1:06
Many people lived peacefully within it
1:09
until one day when the dragon called
1:12
Dactto the Great struck and cracked the
1:15
desert egg. The piece was shattered. The
1:18
people of the White Egg took up arms
1:20
against the empire and its dragon. They
1:22
wared and lost. The empire [music]
1:25
brought them in chains to its capital.
1:28
>> And then, auntie Troy, what happened to
1:30
the people after that?
1:31
>> The empire's prisoners came to a tragic
1:35
Those who were taken were put to death,
1:38
boiled alive in Dagasa's cauldron. But
1:40
the goddess Eufas saw all. Her heart
1:43
achd [music] to see them treated that
1:45
way. And so, she rescued 5,000 children
1:48
of the white egg. They grew up to found
1:51
the kingdom of Damascer. Those children
1:57
>> That story was too scary, auntie. Why
2:00
did you tell it to me?
2:02
>> Because it is true. Your people must
2:04
never forget your history.
2:07
>> But why did Daka the [music] Great want
2:09
to kill all the egg people?
2:11
>> Deep down, child. He feared them.
2:15
>> That doesn't make sense. That [music] is
2:18
a lot scarier. I hate all the gods of
2:21
the temples except you.
2:25
Auntie, what was you like? Was she kind
2:28
and pretty and wonderful?
2:30
>> Yes. And yes, and yes, she was all of
2:36
>> What? You knew her, auntie? No fair. You
2:40
foss is the goddess of the underworld,
2:42
right? Will I get to meet her when I
2:46
The living need not be concerned with
2:48
what may come after death. To be human
2:51
is to live with all one's strength until
2:54
the final moments, no matter the
2:56
circumstances. Always ask yourself until
3:00
the very end, Theodora, if you are
3:02
living to your true purpose, even if the
3:05
question goes unanswered. That is what
3:07
it means to live with all one's
3:11
>> I don't understand, Auntie. You're
3:15
Think of it this way then. Wouldn't you
3:18
be sad if you didn't live with all your
3:20
strength after she saved your ancestors?
3:25
>> Theodora, what's wrong, child?
3:29
>> You had such a good heart. I hate that
3:33
she had to die, but when I'm older, I
3:36
want to be strong so I can save people
3:41
I'll protect everyone.
