The Three Musketeers: "Die by the Sword!"
The musketeers look on as a captured traitor named Corbeau is about to be executed. Before the executioners axe falls on his head, Corbeau yells out a mysterious message “The Raven flies in Pairs”. The scene changes to King Louis court where the king bestows D'artagnan with a priceless pearl and he further awards him with Corbeaus title and castle in exchange for bringing the traitor to justice. D'artagnan is shocked but readily accepts the rewards. D'artagnan travels to visit his new estate when he is suddenly attacked by a hooded figure. The pair fights blade to blade but the hooded figure eventually runs off. D'artagnan arrives at the Corbeau castle where he is once more attacked this time by a girl dressed In a hooded bird mask. The musketeer looks up and spots the ghost of Corbeau for a fleeting moment and then finds that the girl has disappeared along with the ghost. D'artagnan decides to go to sleep in his new chambers and notices a mysterious painting on the ceiling depicting a man with two ravens. He falls asleep and dreams that he is being abducted by a huge raven himself. He suddenly awakens only to find that he is once more being attacked by a figure dressed in a hood that is shaped like a bird. The hood comes off and it is revealed that the same girl is underneath the mask. She is about to stab D'artagnan with a knife but he is rescued by the musketeers who have just arrived. It is then revealed that the girl is the daughter of the dead traitor known as Corbeau. She claims that Corbeau was a good man and the musketeers had him executed for the purpose of obtaining his property. She is locked away until she cools down. In the meantime the musketeers show D'artgnan that they have brought a message for him from Richelieu. D'artagnan is to collect all the local taxes from the region and deliver them to the king or else his life will be forfeit. The musketeers assist D'artagnan in collecting the taxes but they are then ambushed by the hooded figure once more and he steals the tax money. The musketeers then decide to set a trap which will bring the hooded figure to them. They announce that D'artagnan will marry the daughter of Corbeau at a certain chapel. The scheme works and the musketeers are attacked right before the wedding ceremony. The musketeers fight valiantly against their foes and the hooded figure is suddenly unmasked revealing the traitor Corbeau underneath. It turns out that the unmasked figure is not Corbeau but rather his evil twin brother who forced his sibling to exchange places with him. The evil Corbeau runs off only to lose his life while trying to sneak back into the castle. He accidentally walks into a trap previously set by his brother and his head is severed. The musketeers later discuss what has transpired. The kings men arrested the good twin while the evil twin assumed the guise of the hooded figure. Corbeaus dying words along with the painting on the ceiling had confirmed their suspicions.
