00:00This is a story of pure love and faith.

00:03It was a beautiful summer morning.

00:06Count Alaric was on his horse,

00:08trotting towards his kingdom.

00:10He came upon an open field.

00:13Hello.

00:14Are you okay, Miss?

00:17Miss, are you hurt?

00:20Can you see me?

00:22Yes, I can see you.

00:26Miss, are you hurt?

00:29Can you speak?

00:31No, I am not hurt.

00:33Look at the sun.

00:35Doesn't it look beautiful?

00:37Uh, it very surely does.

00:40Yes.

00:42But Count Alaric hadn't even looked at the mighty sun.

00:46He was mesmerized with the lady's beauty.

00:49Her pale skin and bright eyes were all he could see.

00:53He instantly fell in love with her.

00:56Uh, Miss, are you lost?

01:00What's your name?

01:02I, I don't know.

01:05You don't know your name?

01:07Um, no.

01:10How did you come here?

01:13I don't remember anything.

01:15When I woke up, I was already in this field looking at this beautiful sunrise.

01:20I don't remember anything else.

01:23Count Alaric knew he had to help her.

01:26There was no way he was going to leave her alone in the field.

01:30Miss, please come with me to the castle.

01:34You will be taken good care of.

01:36And meanwhile, I will try to find your family.

01:40You're very kind.

01:42I will come with you.

01:44Count Alaric was so happy to hear those words.

01:47But he couldn't take his gaze off the lady.

01:50She seemed to be looking at him, but her eyes were lost,

01:54as if she was thinking of something else.

01:58Maybe she is scared.

02:00I must protect her.

02:02They rode to the castle.

02:04Count Alaric commanded his servants to take special care of his guest.

02:09He soon realized that he has to name the beautiful lady.

02:13He immediately named her Catherine,

02:16for he could not think of a name more suitable.

02:19That's a beautiful name.

02:23Catherine was happy, but not entirely.

02:26She seemed to be thinking of something else.

02:30Maybe she is tired.

02:32I must look after her.

02:34Days, weeks, months passed,

02:37but there was no news of Catherine's family.

02:40Nobody even in the neighboring kingdoms had heard of her.

02:43The count desperately wanted to help her.

02:46He couldn't bear the look in her eyes,

02:49like there is something she is missing.

02:51He wanted to make her happy.

02:54What if I ask her to marry me?

02:57Will she say yes?

02:59I must tell her that I love her.

03:01I have everything to keep her happy.

03:04The count immediately asked Catherine to marry him.

03:07Catherine smiled.

03:09She liked this kind man who had helped her.

03:12She obliged, and soon they were married.

03:15The count had the fanciest marriage ceremonies

03:18the kingdom had ever seen.

03:21After all, the count was marrying the love of his life.

03:25At least a thousand people attended the wedding.

03:28He could see the awe on all of their faces.

03:32Well, the countess is the luckiest woman in the world.

03:37Look at this grand arrangement.

03:40He must really love her.

03:42She must be really happy.

03:45The count smiled,

03:47but one look at the countess and his heart sank a little.

03:51My dear, aren't you happy?

03:54Of course, my love.

03:57Count Alric believed her,

03:59but there was that look in her eyes again,

04:02as if she was thinking of something else.

04:06Count Alric had run out of excuses to comfort himself.

04:10The kingdom could not have had a better countess than Catherine.

04:14Everybody loved her.

04:16She treated everyone with love and respect.

04:20But Count Alric was sad.

04:22He knew she didn't wholly belong to him.

04:25Each year, the count threw a ball for his people.

04:29Everybody danced their hearts out,

04:32even those who didn't know how to dance.

04:35But the countess was quiet.

04:38She was neither dancing nor smiling.

04:41The look in her eyes killed the count each day.

04:45He tried asking her several times,

04:47but she always held him tight, smiled, and said,

04:52I love you, dear, and I am happy with you.

04:56Though she looked at him,

04:58the count knew she was thinking of something else.

05:02Then, one night, as the count entered his room,

05:06he was surprised to see that Catherine was dancing.

05:10Dear, why don't you ever dance with me?

05:14What? I never dance. You know that.

05:18Oh, my sweetheart,

05:20but you were dancing just now when I entered the room.

05:24Don't you remember?

05:26What? No, I don't dance.

05:29But I sometimes do hear soft music

05:32as if it's playing somewhere far away,

05:35as if it's calling me.

05:38Count Alaric was confused.

05:40A year passed. Soon, it was their anniversary.

05:44The count thought of surprising his beloved countess.

05:48A night before the anniversary,

05:50he rode up to the very field they first met in.

05:54Catherine will be so happy.

05:57Wait, what is that?

06:00I have never heard such a beautiful tune in my life.

06:08What? The fairy people.

06:11I thought they were only stories.

06:13Shh, quiet, Theodore.

06:16This is such a strange scene.

06:19Wait, who is that?

06:21Is that...

06:23And there, dressed in a beautiful pink gown,

06:26was the love of his life, Catherine.

06:30Catherine!

06:32But before he could take a closer look,

06:34his horse bolted.

06:36Theodore was scared to his wits.

06:38He started running into the jungle.

06:41Quiet, Theodore. Calm down.

06:44You are taking me away from the fairies.

06:47There, there. Quiet, boy.

06:49See how far you brought me?

06:51Let's go back.

06:54Oh no, they are gone.

06:57The count rushed back.

06:59He was relieved to see that the countess

07:01was sleeping peacefully in their bedroom.

07:04My love, where were you?

07:07Uh, what?

07:10I was sleeping.

07:12You seem tired. You must sleep too.

07:15It's late.

07:17Wait, I am not wrong.

07:20It was her.

07:22Is she lying to me?

07:24She looked so happy there.

07:27What do I do now?

07:29Only one person can help me.

07:31Magda.

07:33The count trusted Magda.

07:35She knew all the secrets to this world.

07:38After traveling for two whole days,

07:40he reached a small hut deep inside the jungle.

07:45Oh, Count Alaric.

07:48What brought you here?

07:50It's the countess, Magda.

07:52I need your help.

07:54The count narrated the whole story to Magda.

07:57He also explained the look in Catherine's eyes

08:00that always pained him.

08:02She looks at me, but she is always thinking

08:05about something else.

08:07What do I do?

08:09Oh, my dear.

08:11There is nothing you can do.

08:14Your wife is one of the fairy people.

08:18She must have stayed behind last summer

08:21when you found her.

08:23They call out to her.

08:25She will go to them every summer to dance.

08:29She may come back for now,

08:31but there will come a day when she won't.

08:35What?

08:36No.

08:38She belongs with me.

08:40Isn't there any way that she can forget that life completely

08:44and become mine forever?

08:46Give me some herbs.

08:47Some magic potion.

08:49Anything.

08:51My child, no herb or magic is strong enough

08:55to make one forget their past.

08:58She would always be connected to where she came from.

09:02But there is one thing.

09:06What?

09:07I will do that right away.

09:09Tell me.

09:11Your love has to be perfect.

09:15Only then she will forget her past.

09:18Isn't my love perfect?

09:20How do I make it perfect then?

09:23That only time will teach you.

09:26Don't worry, my child.

09:29Go home and have faith in your love.

09:33Count Alrick went back to the castle.

09:36He was now more polite and kind to his wife.

09:39Yet, every night, she left the castle.

09:43The count had several sleepless nights,

09:46wondering if this is the night that takes his beloved wife away.

09:51Then, one fine day...

09:54That's enough!

09:55I will follow her today and show her how much I love her.

09:59My love is perfect and I will prove it.

10:03That's it!

10:06Catherine, it's me, your husband.

10:09I have come to take you away.

10:11Come with me.

10:12Let me go!

10:15Come to us, sister.

10:18Leave me!

10:20Don't you remember, my love?

10:22Come with me.

10:24Catherine realized that the count was too strong for her.

10:28She smiled brightly.

10:30Dear, let me finish my dance

10:33and I promise I will come with you after.

10:36No, you are lying.

10:39Look at me.

10:40There are tears in my eyes.

10:43Fairies don't know how to cry.

10:46Your love taught me that.

10:48No, Catherine.

10:50You belong with me.

10:52Sisters, give me your strength.

10:56Be strong, sister! Be strong!

11:00Be strong, sister! Be strong!

11:04Be strong, sister! Be strong!

11:09Be wild, sister! Be wild!

11:12Be wild, sister! Be wild!

11:15Be wild, sister! Be wild!

11:18Be wild, sister! Be wild!

11:21Be wild, sister! Be wild!

11:24Be wild, sister! Be wild!

11:27Be wild, sister! Be wild!

11:30Be wild, sister! Be wild!

11:33Be wild, sister! Be wild!

11:37Be flowing, sister! Be flowing!

11:41Be flowing, sister! Be flowing!

11:54Be fiery, sister! Be fiery!

11:58Be fiery, sister! Be fiery!

12:07If I hold you till dawn, you will still be partly mine.

12:12But he did not let go of the flame.

12:17And you are too strong for me.

12:20I cannot leave you.

12:25The count was happy.

12:27I knew my love was perfect.

12:30Catherine, are you okay, my love?

12:33But the countess didn't speak.

12:35She crouched and moaned.

12:37It killed the count to see his lady unhappy.

12:41Catherine, if you stay with me,

12:45will you remember your people and be sad?

12:49I shall only faintly remember them.

12:52I shall not be sad,

12:54but I shall always feel there is something I have lost.

12:58And if you went back to your people,

13:01would you remember me?

13:03No, I should remember none of it.

13:06I will only be happy.

13:09I cannot see you unhappy, my love.

13:12I love you too much.

13:14Dearest, go back to your people.

13:17Be where you are truly happy.

13:21Count Alrick never looked back.

13:24He could not bear to see the meadow empty behind him.

13:28After riding aimlessly for hours,

13:30he reached his castle.

13:32Who is that?

13:34Catherine!

13:37Oh, my love!

13:39What happened?

13:40When I woke up, I was alone in the field.

13:43How did I go there?

13:45I knew you must be looking for me.

13:48Oh, dear.

13:49It doesn't matter.

13:50All that matters is that you are here with me.

13:54I love you.

13:55I love you too.

13:57And he knew she meant it.

13:59And he knew she meant it.

14:01For her eyes were looking for him and nothing else.

14:05It was Count Alrick's faith and pure love

14:08that had brought his lady to him.

14:12Perfect love is when you love somebody else's happiness

14:17more than your own.
