4:12that her fate was not to follow them for
4:14she was already dead she asked him not
4:17to look for her and to continue on his
4:19path where anas would find greatness and

4:37his family and the last remaining
4:39Trojans came together anisis reminded

5:00filled with adventures and challenges
5:03the departure of anas and the Trojans In
5:05Search Of A New Beginning marks the
5:07start of one of the most epic Journeys
5:09in history thus Begins the anad the
5:12founding story of a civilization that
5:14would leave its mark on History due to
5:17the greatness of its
5:19[Music]
5:21people following the fall of Troy anas
5:24guided a band of refugees in search of a
5:26new land where a prophecy would be
5:28fulfilled that he and his descendants
5:31would find a second Troy which would
5:33Eclipse its predecessor in glory and
5:36Splendor they arrived on the coast of
5:38thce and as soon as they stepped ashore
5:41he decided to build an altar to them and
5:44to collect offerings and present them to
5:46the gods as a sacrifice when anas picked
5:49wild flowers to Adorn the altar of the
5:51Gods he was surprised to see blood
5:54dripping from the stems of the plucked
5:56flowers and was afraid he was violating
5:58the garden of adri had but the truth was
6:01even sadder the spirit of pooris
6:04appeared before him a young Trojan
6:06prince who lived in thce until he had
6:09been captured by Ajax of Salam and taken
6:12to Troy where he was stoned outside the
6:14Trojan Gates his Spirit returned to thce
6:17to rest in the last place where he had
6:19been happy the boy's ghost urged anas to
6:23leave that land as the thracian King was
6:26no longer a Trojan friend he would only
6:28find ruin if they stayed on those parts
6:31before leaving thce anas held a ritual
6:34in honor of the prince whose life had
6:36been cut short so
6:37early facing enemies on almost every
6:40side the Trojan survivors were unsure if
6:43there was any land that would welcome
6:45them and so was the goddess Leo who
6:48wandered for a long time in search of a
6:50place that would accept her children
6:52Feebas Apollo and Diana as their
6:55Homeland they headed for the sacred
6:57island of doos
6:59there anas and his old father sought
7:01answers from the Oracle of Apollo they
7:04were greeted by the king of delos who
7:07was also the chief priest of Apollo's
7:09Temple anas and his father left delos
7:12after having heard the Oracle telling
7:14them that they would have to make their
7:16way to the land of their remote
7:19ancestors anisus pointed out that they
7:21would have to go to the island of crit
7:24as it was from there that their
7:25ancestors had set out to found the city
7:27of Troy one once in cre they founded the
7:31city pergamon and it appeared that they
7:33had found the promised land there they
7:36built temples and palaces but their true
7:39destiny was not to live on the island
7:41where the great Jupiter had been raised
7:43a terrible drought devastated the crops
7:46and disease began to spread among the
7:48Trojans many of them died during these
7:51harrowing days on the island of creit
7:54the people appeared to their leaders for
7:55an answer but anas failed to find a
7:58solution to their plight
8:00he ordered them to get ready as they
8:02were to return to the island of delos in
8:04search of an answer however that same
8:07night while he was sleeping anas was
8:09paid a visit by the Trojan gods among
8:12whom was tuser his ancestor who had
8:14given rise to the Trojan lineage the
8:17visitors told anas that they were not
8:19welcome in Jupiter's sacred lands as the
8:22great God knew that his wife Juno
8:24loathed the Trojans with all her heart
8:26and that such hatred would bring
8:28Misfortune to all the the peoples who
8:30lived in cre the deities informed him
8:32that the Trojans had come to the lands
8:34of the wrong ancestors Hisperia was
8:37where they would find their home it was
8:39from there that the Glorious dardanis
8:42one of the founding fathers of Troy had
8:44set out the next day anas instructed
8:47everyone to get ready as he had been
8:49visited by the gods and they would
8:51change their course anus was to lead his
8:54Fleet towards the lands of ancient
8:56Hisperia now known as Italy
9:01anas and the Trojans were on the high
9:03seas once again Bound for the land that
9:06had been promised to them but 3 days of
9:09severe storms blanketed the skies and
9:12without the Stars to guide them their
9:14helmsmen pinous seemed clueless as to
9:17where they were heading however the
9:20Trojans managed to find a safe harbor to
9:22disembark on the island of stroes not
9:25knowing that it was home to Cursed
9:27creatures anas men hoped that the land
9:30would be welcoming as they quickly found
9:33wild goats to eat before they could
9:35Feast on goat meat they made a sacrifice
9:38to Jupiter who had brought the
9:40hospitable land into their path but
9:42little did he know that the great God
9:45was avoiding aiding the Trojans for fear
9:48of the wrath of his wife Juno who was
9:50the Trojans enemy that was when one of
9:53anas's men raised the alarm as three
9:56hideous winged creatures were rapidly
9:58approaching
9:59these were the loathsome harpies half
10:02woman half bird creatures who since
10:05their defeat by the Argonauts had taken
10:07up residence on the island of
10:09stroies they were filthy things and
10:12their rot contaminated all the
10:15food again anas's people had to hunt and
10:18cook goat meat but once more the harpies
10:21came and spoiled the Trojan's meal anas
10:24took it upon himself to stash his
10:26weapons in the undergrowth and Ambush
10:29the harpies when the harpies returned
10:32anas and his men stood ready to fight
10:34them the struggle was hardfought and
10:37both sides fought bravely but anas's men
10:40were not nearly as mighty and resilient
10:42as the heroic Children of the Gods who
10:44accompanied Jason and so they were no
10:47match for the harpies before they left
10:50one of the harpies even cursed them for
10:52killing their cattle they told them that
10:54they would have to suffer and starve and
10:57eat their own tables before they could
10:59settle in the land that the gods had
11:01promised
11:04them anas's fleet was now an Italian
11:07Waters and everything suggested that
11:09they were nearing their long awaited
11:11destination however a great danger
11:14loomed ahead they met with the perilous
11:17caribdis a gigantic creature living
11:20underwater Who Swallowed the seawat and
11:22created an enormous Whirlpool engulfing
11:25everything close to it anas's ships
11:28squeezed through the rock walls to
11:30escape as far as possible from the
11:32enormous whirlpool and fortunately took
11:35the side opposite the Cave of the
11:36monster Sila who ambushed the ships
11:39nearing its cave having succeeded in
11:42escaping unharmed from such danger they
11:45headed for the coast of the island of
11:46Sicily they encountered the gigantic
11:49Mount Etna a mighty volcano that spewed
11:52fire in lava according to the myths Zeus
11:55had thrown a huge mountain on the
11:57monster Typhon who was was imprisoned
11:59Under the Volcano and the eruptions
12:02showed that the monster was extremely
12:04angry anas and his father landed once
12:07again in unknown lands but bold and
12:10chesus was beginning to show signs that
12:13the exhausting Journey was costing him
12:15dearly and his health was declining day
12:18by day the Trojans were surprised by a
12:21visitor during the night sweating in
12:23rags and they realized that he was a
12:25Greek from the way he spoke he knelt
12:28before anas and pleaded for help and
12:30forgiveness as he was one of odyss men
12:33king of Ithaca having fought against the
12:36Trojans and the Trojan War he told them
12:39that he had been left behind on the
12:40island of the Cyclops when odys is
12:42passed by he had failed to join Odus
12:45when he escaped from the Cyclops
12:47polyphemus as he was sick and wounded
12:50and had been hiding from the terrible
12:52Cyclops that lived on the island ever
12:54since then the huge oneeyed monster
12:57emerged but luckily for the Trojans it
12:59had been blinded by
13:04odyusa and his crew managed to make as
13:06little noise as possible so as not to
13:09attract the cyclops's attention and
13:11embarked on their ships bringing the
13:13Greek Aid with them however as they set
13:17off again anas noticed that his parents
13:19was drawing Last Breath the great lord
13:22of the dardanians was leaving the duty
13:24of carrying on the legacy of his people
13:26in his son's hands and so died old an
13:30chesus the man once adored even by the
13:33goddess of love anas arranged a funeral
13:36to honor the great lord of the dardel
13:38and anas and his son asanas were now the
13:42only living members of the Trojan royal
13:44family once so powerful and
13:50glorious at last anas and his men were
13:53nearing the land promised to them by the
13:55gods but one deity had made no such gift
13:58promise prises to the Trojans she was
14:01Juno known to the Greeks as Hera the
14:04wife of the supreme god she was still
14:07extremely hostile towards the Trojans
14:10and not even the utter destruction of
14:12their glorious City could appease the
14:14goddess's Wrath anas and the Trojans
14:18still had many trials ahead of them Juno
14:21commanded the wind Gods to strike the
14:23Trojan ships and churn up the Seas with
14:26their blasts the previously Tran sea
14:30looked as if it had revolted against the
14:32Trojans the heavy winds ripped at the
14:34ship's sails and the enormous waves
14:37menaced to capsize the boats and throw
14:40their men into the sea Neptune the god
14:44of the seas was angered by Juno's
14:46meddling in his domains having tossed
14:49the Seas into turmoil without checking
14:51with the Supreme lord of the realm the
14:54Mighty God stunned the wind deities with
14:56his Trident and the seawaters quiet
14:59roted down saving anas from a
15:01devastating fate several ships
15:04disappeared in Juno's chaos but anas and
15:07most of his vessels found their way to
15:09the North African Coast they were
15:12unaware that they had reached the
15:14kingdom of Libya a land governed by
15:16immigrants from The Phoenician island of
15:19tier anas making use of his bow and
15:22arrow shot six deer-like animals of the
15:25local fauna and managed to provide food
15:27for his people who were were starving
15:30Venus the goddess of love and mother of
15:32anas knelt before Jupiter in the
15:35dwelling of the Gods and asked him what
15:38her son had done to deserve such a harsh
15:40punishment the supreme god assured her
15:43that she had nothing to worry about not
15:46withstanding the fury of his wife Juno
15:49he would guarantee that everything
15:50prophesized to anas would come true in
15:54Italy he would lay the foundations for a
15:56nation that would outshine all others
15:59Julius Caesar and Octavius Augustus
16:01would emerge from this people standing
16:04out among all the others of their time
16:06with their names reverberating
16:08throughout history much like the great
16:11Heroes of hos Mercury the Swift
16:14messenger god headed to Carthage at
16:16Jupiter's command to notify them of the
16:19presence of anas and his people it was
16:21the carthaginians duty to greet their
16:24visitors warmly anas meanwhile was out
16:27on one of his hunts when he stumbled
16:29across the most beautiful woman he had
16:31ever seen wearing the Garb of a Huntress
16:34and possessing a Divine Aura he greeted
16:37her with the utmost respect although she
16:40was not the goddess of hunting Diana as
16:43her hair was as black as night she could
16:45only be a goddess he was right she was
16:49his mother masquerading as a Libyan
16:52Huntress she told him where he was and
16:55about the people who lived there most
16:57importantly she told about daido the
17:00queen of Libya who reigned over the land
17:02from her throne in Carthage the gorgeous
17:05Queen daido was the daughter of the
17:07Phoenician King but when her brother
17:09took the throne of tier and murdered her
17:11husband to rob her of all her wealth
17:14daido fled North she escaped to North
17:17Africa carrying all of her husband's
17:19vast wealth with her to prevent it from
17:21being stolen by her ruthless brother
17:24daido went on to settle these distant
17:26lands and with the blessing of the go
17:29Juno grew what had once been a small
17:31Hamlet into a magnificent City Juno is
17:35said to have planned for Carthage to be
17:37the Bedrock for the foundation of a
17:39universal Empire after the huntress told
17:42anas about the queen she told him that
17:45according to the Flight of the birds one
17:47could infer that when Nas got back to
17:49his base he would be in for a good
17:52surprise several swans were flying back
17:55together after being dispersed by an
17:57eagle as the Hun turned to leave anas
18:00could smell a sweet unmistakable scent
18:03from her hair this was his Divine
18:05mother's perfume and thus he knew that
18:08she was still watching over him Upon
18:11returning to his people Ania spotted
18:14numerous ships on the horizon which had
18:15been lost the gods seemed to be on his
18:18side once again anas would now have to
18:21follow his mother's advice and go to
18:23Carthage to meet Queen
18:27daido anas and and some men headed for
18:30the city of Carthage carrying gifts for
18:32Queen daido who ruled over the whole
18:34region the first time the Trojan leader
18:37and the queen saw each other both were
18:39blown away by each other's Beauty daido
18:42was gorgeous and anas was the son of
18:44Venus and the Charming aelas whose build
18:48and features were exceptionally alluring
18:51the goddess Venus kept an eye on
18:53everything worrying about her beloved
18:55son's fate as Carthage was patronized by
18:58the goddess Juno and she was a Trojan
19:00enemy she asked her other son Cupid the
19:03god of passion for help he was to
19:06disguise himself as asanas anas's son
19:09making sure that the queen fell in love
19:11with his half brother daido and anas had
19:14much in common both were descendants of
19:17powerful royal families and widows of
19:19Partners who had been brutally murdered
19:22they too ended up in Exile with the
19:24mission of founding a great civilization
19:27Carthage was already growing rapidly but
19:29anas's new city was only a far-off dream
19:33anas was extremely proud to present his
19:36son asanas to the queen daido expressed
19:39her affection for the boy and asked him
19:41for a hug cupid in Disguise sees the
19:44opportunity to strike the queen of
19:46Carthage with one of his golden arrows
19:48sparking in her a passionate desire for
19:51anas throughout the night the queen
19:54could not stop thinking about the
19:55handsome host from distant lands but she
19:58had made a vow not to get involved with
20:01any other man following her husband's
20:03death the following day daido invited
20:07anas to go hunting while the queen
20:09looked delicate she was an accomplished
20:12Archer and impressed anas with her
20:14accuracy however Heavy Rain Led the pair
20:17to seek Shelter From The Storm and they
20:19took refuge in a nearby cave far from
20:22everyone's eyes Queen Dao declared her
20:25passion for the Trojan Prince anas
20:27eventually surrendered to the seductive
20:29power of that beautiful woman anas and
20:32daido started to foster a stealthy love
20:34affair but this affair did not evade the
20:37watchful eye of the Goddess Juno Juno
20:40went to Venus and suggested bringing an
20:43end to the hostilities between her and
20:45the son of the goddess of love as a way
20:47of sealing this pact she proposed that
20:50daido her Protege and anas joined forces
20:53in a powerful Alliance but Venus was
20:56suspicious as Juno was not reowned for
20:59being
21:00forgiving anas and daido began to live
21:02as a couple while daido reigned anas
21:05assisted her by managing her partner's
21:08Kingdom but the contemptible goddess
21:10Fame spread rumors about the couple's
21:12Union throughout Libya the gossip
21:15reached King Arbus who had been rejected
21:17by daido on the grounds that she would
21:19never marry another man again he had
21:22built several temples to Jupiter and
21:24knew that the god owed him a debt of
21:26gratitude he called for the Supreme God
21:28to drive anas from those lands Mercury
21:32the messenger god went at Jupiter's
21:34behest to deliver the message from The
21:36Olympian Lord he ordered anas to abandon
21:39Carthage as soon as possible as his home
21:41was not there but in Italy the land
21:44promised to him by the gods anas enjoyed
21:47living alongside daido but he knew it
21:50was his duty to establish a new kingdom
21:52for his son and people the Trojan leader
21:55commanded his men to make discreet
21:57preparations for their departure so as
21:59not to raise
22:01suspicions however Dao was no fool and
22:04spotted the strange goings on and
22:06challenged anas the queen felt betrayed
22:09by him who planned to run away in hiding
22:11after being welcomed by her and acting
22:14as if he were her husband but anas was
22:17not swayed by Dao's words as he had made
22:19up his mind to leave for Italy anas left
22:22to help his men finish their
22:24preparations leaving the heartbroken
22:26Queen behind d ID ordered a great P to
22:29be built as she was about to perform a
22:32ritual that would make her get over the
22:34love she felt for the treacherous Trojan
22:37daido proceeded to toss all the
22:39belonging she had given to anias into
22:41the flames on a platform to everyone's
22:44astonishment the queen took the sword
22:46that had belonged to anas and pointed it
22:48at her stomach she cursed the Trojans
22:51and stated that it was the people of
22:52carthage's Duty to be Eternal enemies of
22:55those descended from the Trojans having
22:58having mortally wounded herself with the
23:00sword daido flung herself into the
23:02burning py in front of her the people of
23:05Carthage never forgot this harrowing
23:07sight anas and his Fleet could even see
23:11the great P Illuminating the night while
23:14hearing the cries of commotion from the
23:16carthaginian people anas was now heading
23:19back to Italy but he still had to pay a
23:21toll in misfortunes for his Reckless
23:24[Music]
23:26actions having left Carthage behind for
23:28a lengthy journey anas and his people
23:31were once again on the island of Sicily
23:33getting closer to their final
23:35destination this time they would
23:37encounter a welcoming Village there
23:40reigned acestes a king and Son of a
23:43Trojan Noble woman for this reason the
23:46Trojans were warmly received in these
23:48lands Juno however noticing that anas
23:51was about to fulfill his Destiny
23:53dispatched the goddess Iris to poison
23:55the minds of the Trojans and the elderly
23:58who could no longer stand the suffering
24:00they had experienced for so long at Sea
24:03before anas could realize it the women
24:05and the elderly had burned a substantial
24:08portion of anas's ships as they wanted
24:10to stay there in aes's Kingdom the
24:13Trojan leader desperately stared at his
24:16finest ships burning but Jupiter would
24:19not allow the elders to torch all the
24:21ships threatening them with his
24:23lightning and thunder that night anias
24:26was visited by his father Spectre the
24:28old on chesus who told his son about
24:31Jupiter's orders he instructed anas to
24:34gather the strongest Warriors and the
24:36youngest and healthiest women for them
24:38to board the remaining ships and finally
24:41reach the land the gods had promised
24:43them after rounding up fresh supplies
24:46Ania set off with his chosen men leaving
24:48behind the old and sick and the women
24:51who did not want to continue the ones
24:53who stayed would find a village named
24:55aista after the king who had welcomed
24:57them anas's trip to Italy was smooth as
25:01Jupiter had had enough of Juno's
25:02interference forcing her to stop
25:05disrupting the Trojan's remaining
25:06Journey he also asked Neptune to temper
25:09the Seas making it easier to sail anas
25:13and his dwindling Fleet reached Italy
25:15near the mouth of the river Tyber this
25:17region was known as Latium as the Latins
25:20lived there once a Shore the Trojans
25:23started baking large flat wheat cakes
25:26and when they used them as a table on
25:28which to serve other dishes the young
25:30asanas said we are eating our own tables
25:34the anas remembered the Harpy's curse
25:37saying that they would suffer until they
25:38ate their own
25:40tables anas understood that this was the
25:43place where the Trojans would settle as
25:45the gods had intended and these were the
25:48Blessed lands from which they would
25:49raise a settlement to be the seed of the
25:52mightiest Empire the world had ever
25:57seen not not far from where anas and his
26:00people had set up camp stood the Palace
26:02of the italic people who lived in the
26:04region latinus was reigning there an old
26:08and Savvy Monarch descended from Faus
26:11and great grandson of the God Saturn but
26:14King latinus never had any male heirs
26:17his only Offspring was the gorgeous
26:19princess levinia courted by all the
26:22unmarried Nobles of Lum turnus stood Out
26:26Among the princess's many suitors he was
26:28a strong good-looking and Powerful
26:31Warrior son of the king of the ruli but
26:35a prophecy predicted that Lavinia would
26:37marry a foreign Prince of divine lineage
26:41this Outsider and his bloodline would
26:43give rise to the greatest Empire the
26:45world has ever seen and would rule the
26:48entire planet this prophecy meant that
26:51latinus would not permit his daughter to
26:54marry hoping that the husband sent by
26:57the gods would finally reveal himself
27:00turnus resented this situation as he
27:03thought that there was no other man but
27:05him capable of leading the Latin people
27:07after the old King's death this was when
27:10anas's envoys entered the city of the
27:13Latins in a bid for Hospitality they
27:16were initially regarded with suspicion
27:18by the town's folk but the king welcomed
27:21them with the utmost Hospitality just as
27:24Jupiter
27:25commanded anas's Entourage present
27:28presented itself to the king recounting
27:30all their adventures and setbacks until
27:32they finally found their way to the
27:34Italian Peninsula and reached the spot
27:37where the gods had intended them to be
27:39as the king listened to the foreigners
27:41he knew for sure that the Trojan leader
27:44was the man the Oracle of Feebas had
27:46prophesied latinus stated that anas and
27:50his men were more than welcome in the
27:52land and that their people must unite in
27:54marriage and he would offer his precious
27:57daughter to Mar anas forming an
27:59unbreakable bond between both peoples
28:02and fulfilling the God's wishes he
28:05presented the Trojans with Splendid
28:07horses and sent anas a Divine horsedrawn
28:10Chariot as a betrothal gift the Trojans
28:14set off to tell their leader the good
28:16news but Juno was enraged when she saw
28:20that anas and the Trojans all seemed to
28:22have a wonderful Destiny ahead of them
28:25but if this was indeed their fate they
28:28would not achieve it without much
28:30hardship the queen of the gods sent for
28:33electo the most vicious among the furies
28:36ordering her to spread hatred bitterness
28:40and the Lust For War in people's Souls
28:42throughout the region the frightening
28:44Fury proceeded to the Latin Palace and
28:47found the queen there sobbing as she
28:50could not accept her husband's decision
28:52to give the hand of her beloved daughter
28:54to a foreigner using this anger to her
28:57advantage electo slipped one of the
29:00snakes the fury carried in her hair
29:02around the Queen's neck the snake
29:05changed into an enthralling golden
29:07necklace and its sway made the queen go
29:10out into the streets uttering vile words
29:12against the Trojans and hating Outsiders
29:16always has a pleasant ring to those
29:18dissatisfied with them having completed
29:21the first stage of mission electo took
29:23flight to the residence of the powerful
29:25Warrior turnis who was at rest
29:29using a flaming torch the fury ignited
29:32ts's heart with war lust the ruthless
29:36Prince would not permit anas and the
29:38Trojans to succeed to the kingdom he
29:40thought ought to be his turnus commanded
29:44his men to prepare for battle as they
29:46would set out for war and only rest
29:49after the last drop of Trojan blood had
29:52fertilized the Lum
29:54lands there was a wonderful deer in the
29:57Lum region
29:58more beautiful than any other and it
30:01seemed that it had formed a bond with
30:03Sylvia a young daughter of the nobleman
30:05responsible for the Region's Shepherds
30:08the deer appeared unafraid of her and
30:11happily accepted her petting it when the
30:13Latin caught sight of such a scene it
30:16was their belief that such a sign could
30:18only mean that they were blessed by the
30:20gods and the friendship of such an
30:23animal was evidence of this having seen
30:26this Juno pointed the majestic animal
30:28towards anas's son who was already
30:31proving to be an excellent Hunter asanas
30:34was astonished by the size of the deer
30:37and yearned to have such a trophy asanas
30:40shot the animal wounding it mortally he
30:43and some Hunters Then followed the deer
30:45as it fled towards his friend Sylvia's
30:48house asano found the deer in agony with
30:51Sylvia crying beside it she exhorted the
30:54Shepherds who lived there to avenge the
30:57death of the sacred deer they set out to
31:00kill asanas and the Trojans but they had
31:03absolutely no idea that they were
31:05fighting experienced Warriors hardened
31:07by Iron and blood on the battlefields of
31:10the Trojan War news of the Sacred deer's
31:13death and the avenging Shepherds spread
31:16throughout Lum hatred of the Trojan
31:18foreigners spread like wildfire among
31:21the Latins a major war was about to
31:24break out
31:26[Music]
31:29when the Hideous Fury poured her poison
31:32into the hearts of the Latin people and
31:34spread the Lust For Bloodshed throughout
31:36Lum turnus brought all the disgruntled
31:39people to the gates of the Latin King's
31:41Palace and insisted that he declare all
31:44out war on the Trojan foreigners latinus
31:47hoped to escape from this world in peace
31:50but supported by the queen turnus
31:52secured the endorsement of all the
31:54peoples friendly to the Latins the king
31:56worried that the god would not allow him
31:58to Die the peaceful death he so longed
32:01for Camila the warrior princess who had
32:05learned the Arts of War while following
32:06the Entourage of the goddess Artemis
32:09emerged from the volan kingdom she
32:12arrived to help turnus who was an ally
32:14of her
32:15people the king was ordered to open the
32:18Glorious Gates of the Janice Temple
32:20indicating that the Latin were at War
32:23but the ruler opposed the command and
32:25retreated to his Chambers no long longer
32:28willing to be lenient the goddess Juno
32:30himself raced down to earth and opened
32:33the Temple Gates with her own hands much
32:35to the Rapture of the combatants who
32:37were thrilled to learn that the goddess
32:39was on their side they were convinced
32:42that just as Juno had helped the Greeks
32:44defeat the Trojans in the ilon lands she
32:47would once again deliver another
32:49devastating defeat to them standing on
32:52the banks of the river Tyber anas
32:55brooded Over The Impossible ordeal the
32:57Trojan would have to undergo although
33:00they were outstanding Warriors the
33:02Trojans were only a few and would not
33:04stand a chance against the combined
33:06forces of the Lum cities then Tyber the
33:10river god emerged from the waters he
33:13told anas not to Despair and that the
33:16gods were on his side except for Juno he
33:19said that anas needed to head to the
33:21kingdom of Tuscany ruled by a Vander a
33:24palasan king from Greece despite being
33:27Greek settlers they were friends of the
33:29Trojans anas went to King of Ander for
33:32help the tuscans too were enemies of the
33:35Latins so persuading them to help the
33:37Trojans was not hard king of Ander
33:40already an old man said he would not be
33:42able to fight but would send his best
33:45Knights and his son Palace to lead his
33:47men on the king's behalf somewhere far
33:50away in the Divine forges of Mount Etna
33:53Vulcan the forging God was crafting
33:56Majestic weapons for a at the request of
33:58his wife Venus these could only be
34:01compared to the ones used by Achilles
34:03himself they were given by Venus to her
34:06beloved Son she told him that as long as
34:09he wore them he would be capable of
34:11fending off any enemy the hero sensed
34:14that with those weapons and armor he
34:16would be almost Invincible on the
34:18battlefield but one item struck him more
34:20than the rest his new Shield it
34:23contained several High Relief artworks
34:26depicting the future of Rome but all
34:28these images were puzzling to him it
34:30featured the Twins and the She Wolf men
34:33cradling women in their arms and many
34:36other stories that made absolutely no
34:38sense to the Trojan while anias was out
34:41looking for allies turnus was paid a
34:44Divine visit Iris the messenger of the
34:47Gods brought a note from Juno to the
34:49great warrior it said that without anas
34:52around the Trojans camp on the banks of
34:54the Tyber was vulnerable turnus LED his
34:57army to it but the dust stirred up by
35:00his Army's Advance alerted the Trojan
35:02Watchmen who sounded the alarm the
35:05leader of the Romans dared the Trojans
35:07to face them in the open but anas's
35:09warriors were not foolish and did not
35:12give in to tris's taunts they would be
35:15waiting for anas to come back before
35:17finally standing up to the Lum Warriors
35:20turnus threw his asagi at the Trojan
35:23Palisade Watchmen but the Trojans took
35:25cover behind their fences and es with no
35:29other choice turnus ordered the Trojan
35:31Camp to be besieged until more men could
35:33be assembled for the final
35:36assault but turnus grew impatient and
35:38paced back and forth trying to find ways
35:41to harm the Trojans it was then that he
35:44gathered his best men and set off
35:46bearing torches towards the unprotected
35:49Trojan ships on the riverbank cibil the
35:52mother of the Olympian gods would not
35:54allow anas's sacred ships to be burned
35:57she turned to her son Jupiter and
35:59pleaded with him not to allow the Wooden
36:01Boats from Her Sacred Grove to be
36:04wrecked the goddess sacrificed her
36:06entire woods so that anas could have his
36:08Fleet when turnus and his men hurled
36:11their torches at the ships they expected
36:13the boats to burn quickly instead
36:16Jupiter brought the ships to life and
36:19they became magnificent sea creatures
36:21Tess's men were shocked as this could
36:24only be a sign that the gods were on the
36:26Trojan side
36:28but tus took the sign differently for
36:31him the vanishing of the Trojan ships
36:33meant that this time Juno would not
36:35allow them to flee after their defeat
36:38and they would be utterly
36:41exterminated the commander turnus and
36:43the ruli hoped to put an end to the
36:45Trojan Camp so they bravely Advanced
36:48against the enemy defenses protected by
36:50their Shields and attempted to storm the
36:53Trojans
36:54fortifications the Trojans were not many
36:56at the time but their men had battled
36:59for 10 years on the Trojan wall against
37:01the Greek Invaders and were accustomed
37:03to repelling assaults by enemy troops
37:06however turnis worried the Trojans when
37:09he managed to set fire to one of the
37:11defense towers and its collapse was
37:13inevitable seizing the opportunity of
37:16the breach left by the tower turnus and
37:18his men stormed the Trojan camp at first
37:22the Trojans resistance could not hold
37:24back the Romans breakthrough as their
37:26defenses were still blocking more
37:28enemies from invading from other
37:30sections of the wall using his sword
37:32turnus took the lives of several Trojans
37:35he felt powerful as Achilles himself
37:38would have if he had succeeded in
37:40invading Troy but the young asanas would
37:43not allow his father's men to succumb to
37:46the enemy and he shot remulus in the
37:48head killing tris's brother-in-law and
37:51launching the Trojan
37:52Counterattack emboldened asanas longed
37:56to Lunge for Ward and kill the enemy
37:58Commander with his spear but he was
38:00stopped by a hand on his shoulder it was
38:03the god febus Apollo telling him to be
38:06content with taking down just one great
38:08hero that day because if he continued
38:11fighting on the front line he would only
38:13encounter certain death asanas
38:16remembered Petrus Achilles fellow
38:18soldier who disregarded his friend's
38:20advice and met his death headon at the
38:23Spear of the Glorious Hector the young
38:25prince of the dardel opted to retreat to
38:28the rear and let the more experienced
38:31Warriors deal with the Invaders turnis
38:33was seemingly Unstoppable and only
38:36slowed his momentum to engage a Fearless
38:38Trojan named
38:39pandarus the fight was hotly contested
38:43but pandarus eventually perished after
38:45being struck down by turnus who was
38:47fighting under Juno's blessing but
38:50pandarus is demise was not for nothing
38:53as while turnis focused on fighting the
38:55Trojan hero the remaining IL on soldiers
38:58drove off the rest of the Invaders who
39:00ran for their lives if turnus had just
39:03focused on opening the gates for his
39:05army instead of pursuing Glory by
39:08challenging Champions his victory would
39:10surely have come that day but the
39:12Trojans were now surrounding
39:15him turnis ran frantically to save his
39:18own life while the Trojans hurled arrows
39:20and Spears at him as luck would have it
39:23the invisible God Juno deflected the
39:26projectiles turnus rushed to the rear of
39:28the Trojan camp and leapt into the river
39:31Tyber the Trojans believing that such a
39:34desperate act would cause him to drown
39:36fortunately for the warrior the god
39:38inhabiting the river was a friend of the
39:40ruli so he would not let the warrior
39:43sink under the weight of his armor and
39:45shield in the dwelling place of the Gods
39:48Venus complained to Jupiter that Juno
39:50was throwing the war out of balance by
39:52helping the native peoples and that this
39:55would tear the gods apart just as it had
39:57at Troy Jupiter then decreed that the
40:00deities would no longer meddle
40:01decisively in the conflict and that it
40:04would be up to the men themselves to
40:05disclose the Fate that the moirai had
40:08planned for them as he emerged from the
40:11water after almost drowning turna
40:13spotted that on the other side of the
40:15Tyber anas was heading back Laden with
40:18soldiers from neighboring kingdoms who
40:20had Allied themselves with the Dell's
40:22hero to fight against the ruli and the
40:25Latins anas was to show his enemies the
40:28true price of War by rousing the fury
40:31and bloodlust of Mars the God of
40:36War having been separated from his
40:38allies for a few days anas had finally
40:41arrived back bringing with him a large
40:44contingent of soldiers from different
40:46regions who wanted to take revenge on
40:48their Latin and ruli Rivals however at
40:52the very start of the fighting Prince
40:54Palace son of King Evander perished at
40:56the hand of tus Hara perceiving that the
41:00Trojans and their allies Counterattack
41:02would be devastating pulled turnus away
41:05from the action knowing that the brave
41:07Warrior would not shy away from facing
41:09his enemies and would surely die anas
41:12LED his men on the front line and
41:14succeeded in protecting his Camp's
41:16defenses on the other side the Noble at
41:19truscan mezentius organized to the lines
41:22of his allies and prevented them from
41:24being breached by the Trojans but mes
41:27was struck down by an asagi thrown by
41:30anas upon seeing his wounded father
41:33withdraw to the rear the young Warrior
41:35lus was overcome with anger he launched
41:38an attack on anas who deflected his
41:41blows and even warned him to back off if
41:44he persisted he would find no mercy but
41:47the young lus wanted to avenge his
41:50father more than anything and ended up
41:52abbreviating his own life as a result
41:55when he watched his son's body being
41:57brought back from the front line
41:59mezentius mourned his appalling fate
42:02without his son he felt his life was
42:04meaningless so he jumped on his horse
42:06and charged into the Trojan lines in a
42:08suicidal Rampage he searched for anas as
42:12his Target but he protected himself from
42:15matias's Attack by using his Divine
42:17Shield the Trojan hero hurled a spear
42:21that wounded the Mount of the Valiant at
42:23truscan Warrior the animal's body
42:26tumbled over Zenus crushing him while
42:29agonizing under the weight of his own
42:31Mount he begged anas to return his body
42:34to his subjects for a proper funeral
42:37anas agreed to his request and dealt him
42:40the
42:40cou the Trojans claimed victory that day
42:44and they paid tribute to the God of War
42:46Mars who favored them that time Latin
42:49envoys asked for an audience with anas
42:52and requested a truce for the bodies of
42:54the Fallen to be collected and sent to
42:56their relatives
42:57anas stated that he did not wish to
42:59continue fighting and that he was only
43:02defending himself against the Latins and
43:04ruli who had declined the alliance
43:06proposed by the Latin King himself if
43:09they wanted to avoid the pointless
43:11deaths of thousands they would have
43:13turnus face him in a one-off duel to
43:15reveal the will of the Gods the
43:18Armistice was agreed and the Latin
43:20envoys left with the good impression of
43:22the Trojan Prince sensing that he was a
43:25just man who did not wish to shed blood
43:27blood in vain another group of Latin
43:29envoys were at the court of the famous
43:31Greek king diamides one of the most
43:34famous Heroes of the Trojan War now
43:36living on the Italian Peninsula the
43:39veteran of many battles was called upon
43:41to help the Latins against the Trojans
43:44but when he learned that they would be
43:46his opponents he quickly refused
43:48diamides said that he had already
43:50defeated them in Troy but this Triumph
43:53only brought Misfortune to the ilon
43:55enemies Agamemnon had been murdered on
43:58his return ulysis and menaus had been
44:01lost at sea as they tried to return home
44:04and the locan warrior Ajax had been
44:06drowned by the gods and he himself had
44:09lost his throne in Argos the Argos hero
44:13told him that the gifts that had been
44:15brought to him in exchange for his
44:16loyalty should be handed over to anas as
44:19a pledge of Peace after all the gods
44:22favored him and anyone opposing him
44:24would only meet their demise upon on the
44:27arrival of the two bands of envoys the
44:29Latin people's Council was convened both
44:32emissaries shared the outcome of their
44:34missions and for most of those present
44:37peace between the Latins and Trojans
44:39appeared to be the best solution the
44:41Latin King who had not wanted war from
44:43the start again suggested that the two
44:46peoples enter an alliance by marrying
44:48anas to the Latin princess levinia the

47:31quickly stopped bleeding and soon
47:33miraculously
47:35subsided now recovered anias returned to
47:38battle and gathered with his commanders
47:41for he had a plan to change the battle's
47:43course anas split up his men with one
47:47part resisting turin's forces while the
47:49rest would storm the city of the Latin
47:52which was virtually unprotected the
47:54Trojans easily scaled the walls facing
47:57almost no opposition from the few
47:59soldiers left to protect the city the
48:02remaining men were no match for the
48:03experienced Warriors who had made their
48:05name fighting on the Trojan walls after
48:08seizing the ramparts the Trojans opened
48:11the gates for the rest of the army to
48:13break into the city turnus looked back
48:16and noticed that he had been duped by
48:17anas's guile as he saw the smoke columns
48:21from the buildings burning Behind the
48:23Walls when the Latin Queen spotted the
48:26enemies heading towards her Palace she
48:28became desperate and overwhelmed with
48:30guilt for possibly having caused the
48:32ruin of her Homeland decided that she no
48:35longer deserved to live and endure the
48:38pain of her compatriots the war between
48:41the Trojans and the Latins was
48:42approaching its Tipping
48:44[Music]
48:46Point the Trojans and their allies had
48:49breached the Latin wall the soldiers
48:51were desperately attempting to prevent
48:53their City from being taken but
48:55everything seemed to indicate that a
48:57great Massacre comparable to that at
48:59Troy was about to take place it was then
49:02that turnus cried out for all
49:04hostilities to cease for he was there to
49:07face anas in a one-off bout turnus
49:10stated that no further shedding of Latin
49:12or Trojan blood was needed the gods
49:15would now reveal their will and hand
49:17Victory to the
49:19winner turnus grabbed his sword from his
49:22Chariot driver and set off to face anas
49:25the Italian peninsulas fate was hanging
49:27on the shoulders of these two men
49:29bearing the scars of countless conflicts
49:32the Trojan hero anus son of Venus bore
49:36on his back not only the hopes of his
49:38people but also the weight of a Divine
49:40prophesied Destiny in front of him
49:43turnus the fierce leader of the ruli
49:46epitomized the italic resistance driven
49:49by his pride and his deep longing to
49:52claim the right of the throne anas had
49:54fought the best Greek warriors in his
49:57life even Achilles and he felt that the
50:00strong and resourceful turnus was on par
50:02with the greatest aan warriors turnus
50:05charged forward with Untamed anger
50:07forcing anias to remain on the defensive
50:10it was then that with a powerful strike
50:13turnus smashed into anas's chest
50:15protected by the Divine armor made by
50:18the god Vulcan so sturdy that it made
50:20turn' sword shatter turnus was helpless
50:23and at the mercy of anas's spear anas
50:26hurled it but turnus with remarkable
50:29reflexes deflected the deadly projectile
50:32in the nick of time a Latin Warrior
50:35attempted to hand tas's sword but was
50:37stopped by anas's Cold blade threatening
50:40his neck jurna turnus his nymph sister
50:43once again stepped in delivering her
50:46father's Divine sword to her brother so
50:48that he could soak its blade in the
50:50forign invader's blood Venus snapped
50:53when she noticed that yet another Divine
50:55interference had been made contradicting
50:58the decree of Jupiter himself who had
51:01ordered that the deities would no longer
51:03meddle in the fate of the war with his
51:05commanding voice Jupiter said that
51:08should the gods continue to interfere
51:10the conflict would rage on for eternity
51:13and he was already tired of it all but
51:15Juno was certain that unless her Divine
51:18allies came to her Aid turnus would
51:20perish before the Trojan hero the
51:22goddess who loaded the heir to the
51:24Trojan tradition made one last request
51:27of her powerful husband she urged him
51:30not to allow anas to name the place new
51:33Troy and neither to let Trojan culture
51:35dictate to Latin Customs a people who
51:38had always been so obedient to the gods
51:41Jupiter reassured his wife that the
51:43Latin language would not only survive
51:46but would spread throughout the world as
51:48the people emerging from the Trojan and
51:50italic Union would be so strong that
51:52they would overpower all those who dared
51:55to defy them with no divine intervention
51:58anas's Fierce resistance started to tip
52:00everything in his favor turnus appeared
52:03to be losing his grip from exhaustion
52:06capitalizing on turn's weakness anas hit
52:08him with a powerful blow turnis was
52:11severely wounded and defeated anas
52:14claimed Victory putting his foot on his
52:16opponent's chest and getting ready to
52:19deliver the coue when turnus started
52:21begging for his life anias having spent
52:24most of his life in war felt felt a rush
52:27of compassion as he was tired of
52:28spilling his enemy's blood however when
52:32he saw that turnus was wearing Prince
52:34palace's belt as a trophy his anger
52:36sparked and any sense of Mercy melted
52:39away as the Trojan Prince took the life
52:42of his enemy after anas's victory over
52:45turnus the Trojans found a new place to
52:48call home in Italy as promised by the
52:50gods anas married levinia daughter of
