Once upon a time, there was a great and glorious king who lived in a beautiful past in the middle of a forest. If history teaches us one thing, it is this: terrible things happen to kings. You were anointed by God, blessed by the sun, but you do not yet possess what really matters: the power. [Music] Without it, you will perish, and all of France along with you, for a king without a castle is no king at all. [Music]
And now you dream of paradise, paradise, but you must build it for yourself. The Greeks knew what glory was; their buildings were temples for their gods to live in. We will build a new temple here; a new France will be born, and this palace will be her mother: a royal tabernacle of the sun, a dwelling place of the divine and of the people, with a great hall of light that will follow the sunrise and shine out to all corners of the globe, so they might all see the glory of France.
I had a vision, a dream about the palace, our father's hunting watch, with great change. Enemies are quick to follow. I only need to know one thing in this moment: no matter what, are you with me, brother? I can see paradise, but you must build it for yourself. Do you have my back? Where am I now? A king either rules as ministers or is ruled by them. Only power controls the country, and as of now, the power lies with them. It is time to show them who you are. This I [Music] and let all the world know: Louis the Great has arrived. [Music]
Why here, sir? Because I won't be the king of Paris. I know who I am. You are the king of our future; the only question is what kind shall it be? I'm Louis XIV; I'm king of France. How can I thank you, my lord and savior? I can feel you in my veins; I pledge my life to do your will on earth. Now I have might over my enemies; I have the adoration of my people.
You think because I'm king that I'm not also a brother? That I may have all that I want and known for nothing? When you gaze at a king, do not avert your eyes, especially when you look as you do right now. Everyone looks at a king and says, "I would give anything to be in his place." All he wants is his. I see only the surface; I see nothing of the shadows below. No one has all he wants, sir, not even a king. From now on, I want everyone to know their place and their status. I want every minute of every day to be structured. From now on, everyone must abide by the same set of rules. Even a king cannot live the life that you would want to live. It is you who may live those moments for me; it is you who truly lives the life yearned for by a king, including the king, especially the king.
Sire, we may have war, or we may have splendor, but I do not believe that we can have both. Then it must be war. Ready the men, sire. Inclement weather presents further challenges. Taste the tang of victory in the list besides [Music] Making history is all about timing, having God on your side. [Music] All who surround you will smile, and they will deal with you, but they would all see you destroyed, sir. The truth, the truth: we have an older brother. [Music]
And God said, "Let there be light." [Music] And there was light. [Music] Who's the man in the mask? Whether he is, he cannot take my throne. This doesn't answer anything; it tells us what we need to know: that I'm the rightful born of God, and your destiny is divine. Nobody can take that away from you. I am your father; the power lies with you. Let's find out. Have faith, but trust only in yourself above all others. I have my proof; believe it. God shows away because you are the king chosen by God.
