The first 192 lines.
Around 400 years ago
Queen Raya Hijau was the ruler of Langkasuka.
But in surrounding towns
groups of rebels and pirates wanted to take control of this wealthy land.
In the Buddhist year 2136
Yanispree the Dutch weapons genius
and his Chinese student Lim Keeam
travelled to Langkasuka
to bring their best cannon
to give to Queen Raya Hijau to protect her country.
They were attacked by pirates
led by Ekadam who was a master of Dolum
and who wanted to steal the cannon.
They bombed the Dutchman's boat and Yanispree was killed.
And the cannon sank into the sea.
Brother Keeam.
Can I go with you?
You are just a child.
Young is good. Light and easy to fly.
No, I will not take you.
If something happened to you, uncle Unya will kill me.
Your uncle is more ferocious than a shark.
Quick children. Help me to carry this up.
I can fly!
You really are an expert!
The bird has a broken wing. The bird has a broken wing.
If you want to fly in the next life you need to born as a bird!
Children.
Today I have new inventions to show you.
What is it, Brother Keeam?
I call them...
...frog's fins!
Frog's fins!
I believe my new invention
will help you to swim quicker.
Whoever wants it, follow me.
Go, go.
Pinthang. What's the matter?
I dived to get this for you. Take it.
Bring the ambassador from Japan.
Yarang! What are you doing here?
Dad!
I won the fighting test
so I was promoted to be a protector.
You have stayed in Ayutthaya too long.
You are really young
but still you progress to this position.
If your mother was still alive, she would be proud of you.
For me to work for Langkasuka will be my life's honor.
Same as my father.
Bring the ambassador from Eden.
Hurry! Take the princesses away!
Ekadam!
Back! Quick!
Uncle Unya. Where are we going?
What's that noise?
Paree! Quick!
Go!
Unya.
Paree. Pay respect to the master.
Is he Arue's son?
His name is Paree. Arue and his mother
I already know.
Why did you bring him here?
To ask the master to teach him about Dolum.
He has the same characteristics as you.
Paree is a water baby.
He can speak with his stomach too!
Even if he can speak with his feet, it doesn't matter.
The science of Dolum is not to be used to kill.
But we need someone to get rid of Ekadam.
He makes trouble around this sea!
Kill Ekadam and we will get another Ekadam.
But...
Unya.
You must forget about malice
and must teach him about love.
Don't teach him about hatred.
Just teach him Dolum at the basic level.
Master grandfather.
What is it child?
Just a minute ago I heard a strange noise.
It is the noise of darkness.
Darkness? The darkness has noise?
Yes.
If you learn Dolum with hatred
the darkness will cry out in your mind.
Master Krabenkaow does not want teach you.
So I will teach you myself.
Master grandfather said that learning about evil Dolum will put darkness in your heart.
Paree.
You must learn about using good Dolum
to overcome evil people.
Who is the evil person?
Ekadam.
He was lucky that the poison did not spread so quickly I could not stop it.
But he has an injury to his face.
Never mind.
At least he is still alive.
I am pleased.
Queen Raya is coming
Don't worry Yaring.
The bravery of your son is in the country's favor.
I won't let your son be lost.
Prince Rawai must pay for this.
Dolum has 3 major levels and 9 sub-levels.
In the first 3 majors I will teach you
to tell the difference between the noise of fish
and to know the feeling of air, temperature,
humidity, tides and winds that touch your body.
To know about how fish relateto land, air and sky
you must understand fish.
You will know the currents
and where fish will be.
You will know when there will be rain.
In the next majors
you will learn to send out the power of your voice
to control fish
to make them do what you want.
Or hurt your enemies by connecting your mind with the sea.
You must learn Dolum at a high level
then you can talk with the fish.
Krabenkaow is the only one
who can teach you how.
The group of dolphin just in front us.
I will herd them this way.
Pinthang.
I give this to you.
Paree.
Thank you so much
for saving my life.
I was nearly defeated by them.
Is this strange boat yours, Brother Keeam?
Yes.
And the people who wear the strange masks too.
We hired these people.
To fight against Ekadam's power for many years.
But I still cannot get close to Ekadam
Then I will join with you.
One day
I will get rid all of these people who attacked me.
Calm down.
Every problem can be solved given time.
What is your plan?
Even now we still cannot get the cannon out of the sea.
But if every group of pirates in this sea cooperates
and comes together as partners
every job will become easier.
Why do you think they will work together with us?
It is clear to see that our Langkasuka
is not able to make a powerful cannon by ourselves.
We need to find a new person who can make a cannon quickly!
Why do we need to hurry?
Our country has no sign of war.
Leekadei.
As long as Prince Rawai is still alive
we must be careful.
Langkasuka is a big empire
So why have we still not found a cannon maker?
Toeraman. What do you have to say?
Yanispree the Dutch weapons genius
has a student who lives here.
Really?
What is his name?
Lim Keeam.
How you know this?
A few days ago
I was drinking with the ambassador of Holland, called Quan de Vean.
When drunk, he said he survived an attack on a boat
that carried the cannon from Holland.
Another survivor was Lim Keeam.
Quan de Vean said he lives at the Sea Gypsy village.
Find this Lim Keeam.
If he works for our enemy, kill him.
And if he doesn't come to us, kill him too.
Ungu.
I worry about the man who will be your husband.
So beautiful and adept at fighting.
As everybody knows.
Who are you?
You dare to enter a forbidden area.
I am a guest of your country.
You have no manners.
You dare to disturb my practice.
I apologize.
Who are you?
I'm Hubdul Fakumu Idim.
Prince Pahang.
Ungu.
In a next few days you will be engaged.
And next year you will be married.
No man likes a woman who carries a weapon.
