Keeping to the same animated styling of "Little Talks", the video for "King and Lionheart" opens up on a war stricken land, focusing on a young girl and and a young boy, sister and brother, who are being taken away from each other in chains and cages. With the help of two spirit like entities, the two are able to escape their captors who frantically chase after them. Through the pursuit we see them travel through the destruction of cities. The sister is unable to get to the flying vessel in time that her spirit was trying to lead her to. We see her brother crying as he is taken up to the air while his sister still runs from her captors. The video ends openly and we are unaware if the two reach safety. Although made to appear unfamiliar with interestingly dressed characters, and strange dark settings, the video is depicting terrible instances that happen everyday in real life due to war. This video is another great example of the consequences of violence, homes are destroyed, and families are broken apart.
