Thank you We sneak in What if it's the king

00:07

Ah la shmoop Ed abyss decides to continue to go

00:14

to the source Dacosta his wife is a really important

00:18

source because if it's true that he's married his mother

00:21

then dacosta must be his mother So he goes and

00:24

talks to her jj acosta and last had a son

00:28

Then they received a prophecy that the sun would kill

00:31

laos and marriage acosta so they said oh god no

00:36

and got rid of the baby s o she feels

00:39

pretty confident that that little baby could not be at

00:43

abyss who's currently standing in front of her So does

00:46

he accept what she says is the truth Key seems

00:50

to believe her and that's one of the key things

00:53

about this play We don't know what out of us

00:56

really believes or not If atavus really believes in the

01:00

prophecy then it doesn't make sense for him to keep

01:03

asking questions about it You think you could kind of

01:06

just he was just kind of lay low and wait

01:09

to see what would happen next More maybe run away

01:12

or try to escape it The fact that he stays

01:14

and keeps asking questions could mean a couple of things

01:17

he could want Hot believe in the prophecy at all

01:19

or a part of him could believe him And he

01:21

just dying of curiosity even even if it's going to

01:25

hurt him in the end So what are his next

01:27

steps after speaking to his wife So at this point

01:29

in the play a messenger shows up from corrine and

01:33

says that the king of corrine who is edifices father

01:36

has just died of natural causes obviously that's a relief

01:39

to ed abyss because he now knows he didn't kill

01:43

his father that's great Unfortunately what then happens is that

01:49

the messenger reveals that the king of corrine is not

01:52

edifices natural father and pete hell's abyss that the king

01:57

and queen of corrine adopted him him as a child

02:01

when he was left stranded in the wilderness There was

02:06

a shepherd who found him on the wilderness and delivered

02:08

him to corrine and he's learned that that shepherd was

02:11

still alive So edifice has that sheppard brought him for

02:16

another conversation And so what does the shepherd tell a

02:19

typist Shepherd really doesn't want to talk Like most people

02:23

in this play he really doesn't want to talk but

02:26

eventually after his hand is twisted by at abuses Servants

02:31

He reveals that yes the baby was from dacosta Edifice

02:36

is acosta's son The man he killed of crossroads was

02:40

most likely his original father and that he went on

02:45

to marry his mother What do you do This information

02:58
