Episode: 4
Atlas wipes blood from his face while Beatrice, Isabel, and his father demand Elena kneel and apologize. Instead, Elena publicly reveals how Atlas once begged on his knees for her aid and hand in marriage. When Atlas claims all his victories came from his own strength, Elena throws her wedding ring into his bronze statue, cracking its head. She declares an annulment, unleashes her dragon fire, and awakens a sleeping beast.
Atlas confronts Elena with blood on his mouth. His father, his sister Isabel, and his mother Beatrice denounce Elena for striking him. Beatrice tells Elena that she must get on her knees before Atlas if she hopes to remain in their home.
Elena announces to the crowd that Atlas originally knelt before her to beg for marriage and military support. Atlas becomes furious at her words, insisting he won every battle and earned all of his glory solely by his own efforts.
Elena refuses Beatrice's command to kneel. She pulls off her wedding band and throws it across the courtyard. The ring strikes Atlas's giant bronze monument directly between the eyes, splitting the metal apart and stunning the entire gathering.
Elena vows to petition the King herself to end the marriage. Her eyes transform into glowing dragon slits, and golden flames lift her into the air. Deep in a distant cave, a massive ancient dragon opens golden eyes and senses her call.
“Elena, if you want to stay in this house, kneel before Atlas and apologize.”
“From this day on, you are no longer my husband.”
“My Queen!”
Elena floats above the square in blazing golden dragon fire, openly cutting all ties with Atlas Thorne and his family. Meanwhile, her display of raw power awakens a gigantic ancient beast far away in a hidden cave. How will Atlas and his mistress react now that Elena's secret heritage has finally begun to emerge?
