"Look, I... understand this isn't the best time... but I really do need to know as much as I can about the urn." "Look." "Look, I really don't know why... anyone would want to take that urn." "The only thing I know is that there was a name on the coffin:" "Oscar de la Vallé." " Oscar de la Vallé?" " Yes." "do you know who he was?" "The monsignor thought it was the same man... who figures in an old story that's been popular in Aosta for centuries." "Most people, including me, consider it nothing but legend." "Brusca didn't." "That's why he sent the items to you for verification." "Well, can you tell me about the story?" "In 1814... workers renovating the church curia in Aosta... discovered an urn." "There were several items inside it... including a dress that may have been from pagan times." "[Wolves Growling]" "As the legend has it, packs of wolves came out of the forest... the night after the urn was found." "They dug up freshly-buried bodies in the graveyard... and tore them to bits."

" Whole villages were devastated." " [People Screaming]" "Many towns refused to let De la Vallé enter." "People were in a panic." "By the time he reached Viterbo, he was both sick and blind." "The church took him in." "He died six days later." "Maybe it was malarial fever." "His body was buried in a secret place." "The urn was chained to his coffin and sealed with crucifixes." "After the urn was found, the monsignor was a different person." "He began talking nonsense." "[Sighs]" "Wait." "Wait, wait." "l-Yes" " He was writing this when he had the stroke." " Here." "It's a list of what was in the urn." " "Mater Lacrimarum."" " Mater Lacrimarum." "Yes." "The monsignor thought the urn... and its contents were magical... that they belonged to an evil witch... named Mater Lacrimarum- the Mother of Tears." "It's such a shame." "He was a brilliant man- kind... and a wonderful teacher." "To end his days believing in this nonsense" "I'm sure he told you the same thing he told me many times- that God's plans for us are a mystery to everyone but him."

"Those symbols- they are the same ones I saw on the urn." "I know!" "It's the same people." "It's some kind of black magic." "Black magic?" " I don't know about black magic" " What?" " What, you think this is all some sort of coincidence?" " No, I didn't say- don't be so bloody naive!" "Giselle's dead." "Brusca's in a coma." "Now they've taken Paul." "It's" " It's all connected with the urn and-and those talismans." "And they want me to stop looking." "They want me to keep quiet." "About what?" "Keep quiet about what?" "The darkness... gathering around Rome." "You haven't seen it?" "It's happening." "Here, come with me!" " Look." "Let me show you." "Look." " I'm coming." "What do you think all this is?"

"A young dancer named Suzy Bannion... finally managed to kill her." "But that's all history." "When that urn Brusca found was opened... it restored the Mother of Tears's powers." "How do you know about that?" "Your friend, Michael, told me about it... when he phoned and spoke of a magic red tunic... that would be a great and powerful talisman." "I've had visions." "Witches are coming... from all over the world to celebrate her return." "Yes." "They're arriving in Rome every day." "Every jet, every car... every train brings more." "They aim to make Rome fall again... to usher in the Second Age of Witches." "[Groans] I can't take it anymore." "I feel like I'm going crazy." "There's nothing wrong with your mind, Sarah." "It's the world that's gone crazy." "Have a look." "Look at this." "Usually I have one exorcism request a month... but the last few days, I've had more cases than I've had in my whole life." " Every priest I talk to is faced with the same challenge." " [All Shouting]" "Why is all this happening?" "The Mother of Tears spreads evil wherever she can."

"[Whimpers]" "[Sobbing]" "[TV:" "Anchorman] Welcome back to the morning news." "And now for today's top story." "They're calling it the second fall of Rome." "Over the past few days the city has witnessed hundreds of acts of violence." "detective Marchi, you say that they are all connected?" "Uh, yes." "Everything started with events at the Art Museum of Rome." "The brutal murder of the assistant curator, Giselle Mares." "But how does that all tie together?" "It was the trigger for everything that's happening now." "We ask everybody to be on the lookout for this girl, Sarah Mandy... the only witness to events at the museum." " If you see her" " Is she a suspect?" "If you see her, do not approach her." "Call the police and ask to speak to Homicide." "Shit!" "[Horns Honking]" " [Man #1] Fuck you!" " [Man #2] Oh, no, fuck you!" " [Man #3] Give me my money!" " What are you talking about?" " Give me your car." "Give me your car!" " [Woman Screams]" "[All Shouting, Screaming]" "Sunglasses!"

" I need to see Guglielmo de Witt." "[Scoffs] And you are?" "My name won't mean anything to him." "All right." "Come in." "So, you wanted to see me?" "Please sit down." "As you can see, I- I'm not very mobile." "I'm here because I- I have to ask you about" "[Groaning]" "We alchemists may practice an ancient art... but we do watch the news." "do you think I wouldn't know who you are, Sarah Mandy?" "And that the police is looking for you because you're wanted for murder?" "[Whimpering]" "Another thing about us alchemists- we're not all one thing or another." "After all, good magic is good, and black magic is" "[Chuckles]" "Well, it's good too." "Some of what we do is magic, science... esoterism, theosophy, natural law." "A little of this and a little of that." "This will let me know who you really are... and what you've really seen." "[Grunting]" "Hmm." "Interesting." "I see you have latent powers." "Instinct more than anything else." "Marta Colussi sent you, I see." "So did your mother, Elisa Mandy." "[Chuckles]" " [Blows] - [Gasps]" "What did you do to me?" "Huh?" "did you expect me to just let you waltz in here without making sure who you are?" "[Chuckles]" "Now, why exactly did you come here?" "I need to find the Mother of Tears." " Why?" " Look what's happening to the city." "Rome is falling apart." "She has to be stopped." "Mmm." "What do you think you can do?" "Kill her?" "Well, my mother was very powerful... and I think I might have the same gifts." "Which you found out about when?" "Yesterday?" "I don't know." "There's got to be some people that can help, people like my mother." "Father Johannes said that- that Mater Lacrimarum is bringing on the Second Age of Witches." "Mmm." "Father Johannes was right." "Somewhere in the city the celebration has already begun." "But I'm afraid there is no army of good witches out there to come to the rescue." "If you want to stop her, you have to do it yourself." "So I'm on my own now?" "I didn't say I wouldn't help." "I can't give you answers, but I can share information." "Follow me." "Centuries ago, a great Roman alchemist named Varelli... lived for a time in this villa." "He was also a gifted architect." "And near the end of his life, he built the residences for the Three Mothers." "This may tell you something you need to know." "[Man Reading] The Three Mothers." "I don't know how much it will cost me... to break what we alchemists have always called SILENTIUM." "[Man Continues] I met the three Mothers... and built three houses for them:" "one in Freiburg, one in New York... and one in Rome." "I discovered too late that these houses hide obscene secrets." "It is from here that the sisters spread pain... tears and darkness throughout the world." "This building should be the one Varelli built in Rome." "[Sarah] "What you see..." ""does not exist... and what you cannot see is truth. "" "It's a riddle." "Find where Mater Lacrimarum resides... and you'll find the answer." "Are you sure you want to do this?"

" No." " You here to interview me?" " Yeah." "Here." "How long you've been living here?" "Shh-A long time." "Thirty, forty years." "Since the Nazis escaped at the end of the war." "And who used to live here before you?" "Oh, I don't know." "A kind of association." "Philosophers." "Artists maybe." "I don't remember." "Why did they leave?" "Maybe because when the Nazis occupied the villa... they tortured and killed a lot of people down here." "Hey!" "You won't report me, will ya?" "Shh, shh." "[Whispers] Easy." "[Door Sliding Closed]" "[Footsteps]" " Where did she go?" " I think she's gone." "[Knife Blade Rings]" "I'll check upstairs." " Stay here." " Yeah." " She's not there!" " Then she's gone."
