The Princess Who Took Fire - Episode 5

At the Peyton residence a showdown erupts when the High Princess arrives and accuses the family—reminding one woman she married Jastor—after earlier claims about battlefield sacrifices and rival status. She orders Tahlia to surround the house and declares that "no one leaves the premise." Teagan is told to wake the bound prisoner Matthew and whip him while the rest must watch. Soldiers force the household to witness Matthew's torture until he begs for death. As the punishments begin, Ms. Jenny grows visibly ill, leaving the sealed family and their fate unresolved.
