:29:08
Lady Margaret, will you tend them?
:29:10
Yes, Your Majesty.
:29:20
Your Majesty, l do not see
Mistress Shore here. ls she ill?
:29:25
Mistress Shore is dead.
:29:28
As Protector of the Realm
l cannot tolerate treachery to the Crown.
:29:33
Mistress Shore has been executed
for such treachery.
:29:37
There was no more faithful woman
in the castle.
:29:40
l had always thought that myself,
Your Majesty.
:29:44
But when she admitted her crime
l had no choice.
:29:48
Mistress Shore has been spreading rumors
:29:51
that the young Princes are illegitimate
:29:54
and therefore not heirs to the throne.
:29:57
This is a lie. She would have no reason
for doing such a thing.
:30:01
Unless our enemies to the north
are using weapons other than armor.
:30:06
You have executed a most trusted woman
of this court without trial.
:30:10
You say your motives are honorable?
:30:12
Those who suspect treason in others
:30:14
should first look into
their own hearts for loyalty.
:30:27
The rumors will spread quickly.
lt was a brilliant stroke.
:30:30
Who will know what to believe?
Are the Princes legitimate or not?
:30:34
The doubt must be created
over and over again.
:30:37
- lt shall be done.
- And what of Buckingham?
:30:40
l couldn't read his face
when l made the announcement.
:30:43
Does he follow in my shadow?
:30:45
He is a clever man of much influence.
He wants to cast his own shadow.
:30:51
l must know how he thinks
in order to trust him fully.
:30:54
l will bring you a full report.
:30:57
And one not colored
by your own desires, Ratcliffe.
