[dramatic music plays]
[Frank] In the autumn of 1779,
King's Mountain presented a serene vista,
reminiscent of Scotland's Culloden Moor
before its historic bloodshed.
Yet, as history would record,
this tranquility was merely the calm
before a storm of iron and fire.
[gunshots, explosions, people shouting]
Major Patrick Ferguson and his Loyalist militia
established their stronghold at the summit,
commanding the high ground with strategic superiority.
Below, Sevier, Cleveland, Fraser,
and their Overmountain troops gathered,
their resolve as firm as the earth beneath their feet.
The initial ascent was perilous,
with many a rebel picked off
as they clawed their way up the mountainside.
The battle was swift and fierce.
Like penned ducks,
290 Loyalist militiamen,
including Ferguson himself, were slain.
The Rebels suffered minimal losses.
Only twenty-eight fell.
Including me.

we so wanted you to know that...
you were ours.
We ken you might not believe us, lass, without proof.
Oh, I believe you.
I'm sure my grandmother made your veil.
She made the most beautiful things.
You should have seen the piece I had.
But now I lost it, and...
[crying] I lose everything...
and everyone I love...
my whole family.
And you're my family, so I'll lose you, too.
You'll go away, or you'll die, and I'll be even more alone.
I know it's hard to believe
that everything is going to be all right,
especially after everything that's happened to you, but...
But...
[soft music plays]
...God tells us that faith
is the evidence of things not seen.
So...
I will ask you to have faith in us, lass.

Claire, they've come home.
-[Claire gasps happily] -[chuckles]
[Claire] No two people
experience physical pain in the same way.
Perhaps the same is true for emotional pain.
But our collective love of Fergus
was reflected in the agony of our shared loss.
Our grief was alike,
That wild look of suffering in Marsali's eyes
was the same I saw in Jamie's.
It was there in my own.
That nauseating ache,
the disbelief that eats away at you
until you're numb.
A granddaughter who seemed to drop out of the sky,
a blessing from heaven,
and a son who was taken from us too soon,
a hellish reality.
Such are the tapestries of our lives,
threads of shock, anger, love, and affection,
among the multitude of others,
woven together as intricately and delicately
as the most beautiful lace.

It's a great day, laddie.
Where do you think you're going?
Well, with milord.
You remind me I have something to fight for.
There you are, Milord.
Milady, you've returned?
-Fergus. -It's a miracle.
Thank you, mon fils.
Stand by my hand.
Fergus, son of my name and of my heart...
You've saved my life more than once.
I've simply balanced the scales.
I will miss you, too, but it won't be goodbye.
Only au revoir.
[priest] And do you have a name?
[Jamie] Fraser.
His name is Fergus Claudel Fraser.
