"I only wish to give you an advice." "Death lasts only for a moment.." "but torture continues endlessly." "It's better to be loyal to the Tsar than torment yourself forever... do not resist him." "I will only... mark you so you'll remember." "Who's first?" "Suiski." "Give Suiski!" "Suiskis have always been our enemies." "Bear this, boyar!" "Look, Father, we have everything prepared." "The best copyists... your trustfull servants, Oprichniki the wisest deacons." "Judge now, Mythropolit." "This is the throne!" "Fiedka, help the Mythropolit." "Tsar ordered like that." " I cannot!" " Do not have doubts, Father..." "Now you're the greatest judge." "Sit down!" "Sit down!" "The Tsar ordered that." "After all, you asked yourself a fair judgement..." "Thus, be fair, judge, Father!" " Why have you kneeled, Duke?" " I'm guilty, Father." " We admit our treason." " What is your guilt?" "We are guilty as charged, Father." "we have surrendered to Sigismund... and he let us leave... and promised us money... if we would poison the Tsar." "Did they tortured you so that you confess?" "As you can see, we have all our limbs...." "We willingly confessed." "Look there...you see the gate?" "There..." "And on the other side, there's no gate." "Do you know why?" "Because when the world will end and Jesus Christ will come down to earth..." "He will pass right through here..." "He will enter that gate and will remain with us for eternal life." "Let's go further." "Look...the palace!" "There is not a single window." " And why?" " Why?" "Because the world would end, and nothing will worth to look at." " Everything will die, Grandpa?" " No, not everything." "The palace will stand up and within, we will continue to live." " Just don't tell anyone!" " Don't scare me, grandpa." "Look!" "There's no need for a roof, because it will not snow, nor rain," "Only the sun will shine forever." "Here it is...the saved city" "Jerusalem." "That is my secret." "I'm sorry, Uncle... everything was true... the conspiracy... the Novgorod money..." " And I lied to you, too." " I know you since you were a child." "I don't believe it." "It's impossible." " Why do you talk like that?" " I talk... because I must, uncle." "There is nothing more to talk." "I'm guilty, and that's all." "Have us executed!" " Whose tune do you dance on?" " Do not poison my soul, execute us." "Here is the conviction, Father." "No need to further talk, you heard it too, they admitted their guilt." "...that we beat'em...or tortured..." "...you saw for yourself that we didn't!" "and all equally testified." "Sigismund, Novgorod, ...to poison the Tsar." "Give the verdict." "Fedka, get the seal." "I cannot." "Here it is, Father." "Put your seal and finish the trial." "Get the sealing wax." "Look Father, it's that simple." "See?" " so, so, so, so." "So, so, so!" " Father, be good, put your seal, do not anger the Tsar." " I cannot." "This is no joke, Father!" "That's a conspiracy!" "You didn't expected treason." "But who was?" "That's why it is called like that, because your own people betray." " Put your seal." " I cannot." " Put your seal, Father!" "It seems to be true, but I don't believe it." "I admit their guilt... but I will not judge them." "God..." "God..." "I drink the wine of Your anger... clean wine... that fermented in the cup of your anger." "God..." "I make Your will!" "Tell me, thy anointed..." "When will You show us Your face?" "Lord... help me." "And you, Philipka, what are you doing here?" "Why are you tormenting yourself?" "You cannot sleep?" "I can not." "I do not believe in my judgement." "You have judged'em, I have judged'em, it doesn't matter." "They are guilty all guilty, Philipuska." "In his heart, with his thought..." "eachone has sinned." "Each betrayed." "Now go." "Go home." "Go with God." "Father... everything is how you wanted to be." "You did not like my judgement, This will be the God's court." "Let the Lord decide." "End this pagan torture!" " Don't oppose to God's will!" " It's not God's, it's yours!" "Shut up!" "And God said, I'll reward you, according to your deeds." "Does it hurts them?" "Of course it hurts." "But these are not people, They are worse than animals." "I beg you in the name of our Lord, Jesus Christ, stop it!" " Come on...tear the boyar apart!" "Come on!" " Hey, you, don't be afraid!" "The litlle bear it's good!" "Come on, what do you wait?" "Hey... you naughty scoundrell..!" "Gimme back my spear!" "Where does she go..?" "Little Bear, stop it!" "Little Bear, don't do that!" "Stop it, Sire!" "Little Bear, stop, Little Bear... stop!" "Stop!" "Wait, come back!" "Philip!" "Philipka!" "Where are you going?" "Come back!" "God..." "Do not be angry at us for our wicked deeds." "Get Your cup of wrath away from us." "...and soften the Tsar's heart!" "The hope you have given me, dies in bloody agony."

"I can recognize him... neither in these clothes, nor in his deeds." "Come to your senses..." "Mythropolit!" "We are all mortals, Tsar, we must remember God's will." " You chose a bad moment to remind me!" " Look what you are doing to your country!" "You want to be above the law of God, you are condemning your innocent subjects, Tsar!" "It's not your job, abbot, to interfere with our imperial businesses!" "If I am silent, then the walls of this temple will speak..." "Do not oppose to our power!" " .. otherwise my anger will spread upon you!" " Your vile actions will ruin the world!" "You showed entire world that we hid the hell inside of us!" "Philip... do not stand in my will's way!"
