We must!
13
Wait, I'll start.
14
In a great kingdom, long ago, there lived a noble princess.

39
I'm worried, Bilchrist.

Rebexa's not wise enough, Bilchrist.
43
She's too noble.
44
Much beyond what is good for her or for the kingdom.
45
I see.
46
And might I add, I agree, your highness.
47
Can you help?
48
The princess is going on an excursion tomorrow, isn't it?
49
I might have something up my sleeve.
50
My wife will take care of it.

She has just the kind of powers we need.
52

64
Hello, Mrs.
65
Bilchrist.
66
Hello, Princess.
67
So sorry to interrupt your race, Your Highness.
68
But I had to bring you here, because only in my den can I give you a power.
69
Power?
70
Since the beginning of time, mankind's biggest puzzle has been to tell right from wrong.
71
Only the person who can solve this puzzle is truly wise.
72
True, Princess.
73
One day you will rule this kingdom, and millions of people will look at you for justice.
74
You need to solve this puzzle of right and wrong.
75
You're right.
76
From now on, Princess, Whenever something wrong is happening around you, you will perceive a devil.
77
And whenever something right is going on, an angel will show up before you.
78
Hopefully then, you will learn to tell right from wrong.
79
Thank you.
80
Thank you so much.
81
I guess then, instead of continuing my excursion, I must go to court and see whether there's a devil or an angel in whatever is going on there.
82
Spoken like a queen.
83
You will go to prison and do hard labor for ten years.
84
And your home, your wealth, will all be confiscated.
85
Spare me.
86
Spare me, your highness.
87
I swear I shall never, never cheat anyone again.
88
I'm sorry.
89
I am so sorry.
90
Crime cannot be ended with punishment, father.
91
This is devilish.
92
What?
93
Really?
94
This can't be.
95
There is a mistake.
96
Father, please, please spare him.
97
Give him a job.
98
Punishment won't help.
99
I am sure he has learned his lesson.
100
Fine.
101
If I hear one more charge against you, you will go to prison for life or worse.
102

120
Maybe there is something that you need to see or understand.
121
Hmm, maybe.
122
Thank you.
123
Harold, you remember that farmer we gave coins to the other day?
124
Yes, Princess.
125
Do you know where he lives?
126
We could find out in the village.
127
Let's go, but not like this.
128
Hey, fella!
129
Do you know where Hidris lives?
130
That good-for-nothing fool.
131
What do you want him for?
132
Good-for-nothing?
133
All he does is lie all day lazing around.
134
He ain't worth a penny, that guy.
135
Where will we find him?
136
Over there, beyond that field.
137
Get up and do some work.
138
It's time to sow the fields.
139
Hey, I got your roof repaired, didn't I?
140
But you also promised to return the money.
141
When it's time to return, I'll give the princess another sob story, and she is so noble that she'll buy it.
142
No, you won't.
143
Princess?
144
I shall expect my money back with interest at the end of the season.
145
If you do not return it, then you shall be sent to prison for thievery.
146
Do you understand?
147
Uh...
148
Harold, tell the royal officer for this village to keep an eye out for him see that he works certainly your highness Harold, I want to see...
149
Ooh, careful.
150
Mike?
151
Oh, hello, princess.
152
Why aren't you more careful?
153
Well, you did step your horse.
154
Mike, how irresponsible.
155
Someday someone will not be able to stop.
156
It is your job to be careful around roads.
157
Give me that golden whistle back, so that you remember to be careful always.
158
I'm sorry.
159
Harold, give it back to him after a few days, but he must know that actions have consequences.
160
Isn't he that thief I asked father to forgive the other day?
161
Yes, your highness.
162
Let's see what he is up to.
163
Where are we going, sir?
164
Now that I have the money, we are leaving this kingdom for good.
165
And then I will teach you the art of swindling people.
166
Who says one needs to work hard for money, eh?
167
I say that.
168
And every right-thinking human says that.
169
And you're teaching crime to a kid?
170
Your...
171
your...
172
your highness.
173
I gave you an opportunity, but I guess you did not deserve it.
174
Father was right.
175
You deserve to be punished.
176
Harold, arrest him.
177
And send this kid to a proper school.
178
We will fund his education.
179
Okay?
180
Yes, certainly, Your Highness.
181
Father, in all my intention of doing good, I seem to have done more harm.
182
I am so sorry.
183
Nah, I am proud of your compassionate loving nature honey, but a king a queen must do justice and look at the consequences of their actions on everybody It is a tough call, but sometimes we have to be hard for the greater good I understand not everything is how it seems and to jump into kindness or harshness without thinking is harmful I am proud of you.
184
Now I am convinced that someday you will be a wonderful, wise and just queen.
185
So you see, not everything that seems harsh or hard is wrong, and not everything that appears good and kind is correct.
186
The world needs your compassion, but sometimes that What compassion entails saying no, being a bit tough, and insisting on doing the right thing for everyone.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
