WILLOW: Our true enemy
is still out there...

-(GASPS)
-(THE LICH GROWLING)

...and the only thing standing
in its path is Elora.

SORSHA: You are the bravest man
I've ever known.

But you're not a great sorcerer.

ELORA: Willow said I was Elora Danan.

The truth is, I'm not special.

I'm rather fond of this girl.

You need to bring her home.

BALLANTINE: If she's out there,
we'll find her.

PRUNELLA: Did you tell him?
Who she really is?

The child has revealed herself.

No rest till we find the girl.

MERRICK: What's gotten into you,
Commander?

(ROARING)

Told me the legend
of the Kymerian Cuirass.

Your father spent five years
searching the world for it.

I know 'cause I was with him.

I've done it, again and again,
and guess what?

Nothing's happening.

If you ever wanna see Airk again,
you have to focus!

She was Elora Danan once.

She isn't anymore.

Tuatha authrock mora hoatha!

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING)

(CAPTIVATING MUSIC PLAYING)

BOORMAN: It was ten thousand years,

and about three weeks ago,

Thuul, heir to the Kymerian Empire,
had been sick as a child.

When his father died,
his younger brother, Tiberius,

felt he'd make the stronger king.

For forty days,
Tiberius lay siege to the capitol,

starving his own people to force
his brother to abdicate his throne.

So, their mother, Annabel,

a fay of the Grove,

forged for her son, Thuul,
a cuirass of pure Khromium.

Then she assembled the Lux Arcana,

a magical key
that activated the enchanted armor,

so it would only serve
he who was worthy of its awesome power.

So, with no army at his back,

no knights by his side,

Thuul, the Rightful King of Kymeria,

rode out of the city gates
to meet his tyrant brother

and two thousand Death Dealers. And he...

This is really fascinating.

Uh, I can tell they don't call you
"Bore Man" for nothing,

but could you just
tell me about my father?

Well, I'm trying to. But you keep...

Okay, well, can you make it short?

You know, your generation has, like,
zero attention span for-for epic tales.

I love tales, okay?

Well, excuse me for trying to add
a little bit drama and context

to the night that we left Tir Asleen

to find the Cuirass
and use it to defend the realm.

From the Crone?

(OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING)

Crone,

Gales, the Wyrm,

everybody's got a scary name.

They all mean the same thing.

It's the darkness that swallows...

JADE: Oi.

Where's Elora?

Seriously?

Throw a leash on that chit already.

Spread out. She couldn't have gone far.

(FOOTSTEPS THUMPING)

GRAYDON: Elora!

(CAPTIVATING MUSIC PLAYING)

Miss Muffin!

Aw, nuts. Really?

(SIGHS)

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING)

BALLANTINE: Hey, kid.

What are you doing?

Orders from the Queen.

I'm taking her back.

Wait. Hold on.

BALLANTINE: You know who she is?

Then you know why I can't... (GRUNTS)

What... What was that?

What's wrong with you?

Nothing.

You're not yourself. You need help.

-Willow can...
-Don't...

make me kill you.

WILLOW: Stop!

(BREATHES HEAVILY)

Commander Ballantine says
he's here on orders from Sorsha,

to take Elora back to Tir Asleen.

Hmm, is that so?

It's not up to the Queen
to decide anymore anyway.

It's up to Elora,
and it doesn't look like you asked her.

Ballantine.

Princess.

Hold on.

Someone just concisely recap
everything I missed. (PANTS)

No? Okay, I'll have a go.

Ballantine's lost his mind

and he's trying to
kidnap Elora on that horse.

Stay out of this, Boorman.

I can't.

Back in your scabbards, boys.

I have to take her.

Oh, I want you to.

I really do. But maybe we should
discuss this first.

He doesn't serve Tir Asleen anymore.

Do you, Commander?

I don't give a mule's soft wispy bits
who he serves.

She's with us,

and he's outnumbered five to one.

I don't know how much
I can contribute here, Silas.

Four-and-a-half to one.

Who said I'm alone?

(MERRICK GRUNTING)

(GASPS)

(MEN GRUNTING, YELLING)

-(JADE GRUNTS)
-(BALLANTINE YELLING)

-Free her!
-Me?

-Are you sure I'm qualified?
-Just do it!

Okay.

(GRUNTING)

SILAS: What are you doing?

A diversion. Help them. Shiv someone.

What are you doing?

I'm rescuing you.

-Was no one else available?
-Uh...

(BREATHING HEAVILY)

(BALLANTINE YELLING)

-(SILAS GRUNTING)
-(BALLANTINE YELLS)

Elora!

(SOMBER MUSIC PLAYING)

They got her.

-Can you track them?
-On it.

WILLOW: If we catch them by sundown,
we can get her back.

Ride on ahead.

-What happened to them?
-Infected.

-Poison?
-Possession.

One of the Gales must've touched
one of them with his staff.

Ballantine. Pinned him down.

Turned him.

Is the real Ballantine still in there?

Merrick?

Can they still be saved?

They're still in there, but...

bad magic is corrosive, it eats away
at you until there's nothing left.

I'm sorry, Graydon.

When did you become High Aldwin?

Oh, no, that's right. You're not. I am.

All right, let's move out.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING)

SILAS: Damn it, Bessie,
you're faster than this.

GRAYDON: I blew it.

When there's an opportunity to be heroic,

or (SCOFFS) even competent,
I... I... I freeze up.

My father calls me an embarrassment
to the name of Hastur.

And he's, he's right.

Nah. Well, tell him it wasn't

a particularly illustrious name
to start with.

SILAS: Why have they stopped?

(THUNDER RUMBLING)

(THE CRONE SPEAKING PNAKOTIC)

GRAYDON: "The stars align,
the door is open.

"The sphere turns, a God is awoken.

"Extinguish the flame,
snuff out the light,

"and exile the child
to the Thirteenth Night."

Ah, so you speak cursed Pnakotic?

They're gonna kill her, aren't they?

No. If they killed her,

her spirit would endure, be reborn.

But if they banish her,

they can imprison her soul
for all eternity.

It's what Bavmorda was trying to do
when I stopped her.

The Crone knows we're following.

(CLEARS THROAT)
And, what exactly is in there?

WILLOW: A noxious twilight veil.

A swirling vortex of rage and madness
there's no escape from.

Come on, there's not a moment to lose.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING)

(PANTS, GRUNTS)

(PANTING, SIGHS)

(SOLDIERS YELLING INDISTINCTLY)

(PANTING)

(THUNDER RUMBLING)

I think it's broken.

I can mend it.

Then, you guys just lift up the wagon

-and I'll slip it back on.
-(GRAYDON WHIMPERS)

-Seriously?
-Yeah.

You can't just, uh,
levitate it or something?

No... No.

Okay. It's really good having a sorcerer
on this quest.

We should ride ahead.

If we let her, the Crone will use
this storm to separate and weaken us.

We have to stay together.

KIT: I'm gonna go get water.

Let's lift up a wagon.

JADE: Whatever it is, just say it.

(SCOFFS) We're not gonna catch up to them.

And even if we do, what happens then?

They're turning into...

monsters.

Look, I'm sorry, but if there's a chance
that we have to kill them, we...

We can't hesitate.

I didn't hesitate.
I was trying to save you.

I don't need saving, Jade.

I can take care of myself, okay?

No, you can't. You can't, Kit.

Every time we spar, I beat you.

I... (SIGHS)

What?

You're saying...

You let me win? (CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

Why would you do that?

Because, Kit, your mother...

(SIGHS)

She ordered you to be my friend?

No. She just asked me to train with you.

But only in the beginning,
then I did it 'cause I... I liked it.

I never thought that you would be
fighting for your life.

(THUNDER RUMBLING)

Kit, wait.

No, it's okay. I...
I'm just glad you told me.

(GRUNTS)

(ALL GROANING)

Nice work. Can we go?

Yeah, right after my heart explodes,
I should be good to go.

-Think I pulled my groin.
-Don't say "groin" in mixed company.

What you all lyin' around for?
We need to be moving.

(PANTING)

(BIRDS COOING)

(DISTANT ANIMAL NOISES)

(YELPS)

(WOMAN LAUGHS)

You're not wrong there.

(WOMAN LAUGHS)

-(PANTING)
-Oh.

Greetings, weary traveler.

Yes, you. Come.

Feast upon our modest repast.

Though we are but humble woodswomen,
what's ours is yours.

Help me, please.

Oh.

Gather from your dishevelment
and woeful aspect,

you've gotten yourself
a bit turned around out here

in the uncultivated territories.

Listen, we don't have much time.

See, they just don't teach young people
situational awareness anymore.

Do you not agree, Anne?

Oh. This is Anne, by the way. I'm Hubert.

And what may we ask is your appellation?

-My what?
-What's your name, love?

Elora.

Ah.

No doubt named in deference
to the True Empress.

(EXHALES SHARPLY)
That is a lot of pressure

to heap on a youngin, if you ask me.

-Though, I have not been so blessed...
-I... Ugh.

-Thus would not speculate about the pride
-Oh, my...

that one must feel when you see
the fruit of your loins...

-Hubert, please.
-...magic itself into the world.

-Please. Just shut up.
-Yeah. Got it.

There are men coming for me.

Oh.

We do not doubt that.

You do have a pleasing aspect
and fine complexion...

No, wicked men,
and they're on their way here right now.

And when they get here,
they're gonna take me and...

I don't know what they're gonna do to you,

but it won't be pleasant.

So let's get moving, huh? Please. Come on.

Right. Do you know what? You see this?

Call him Roargoth,
after my dear departed pa

who watched over all us youngins.

So if any wicked men think they're gonna
come here and disturb our repast,

(CHUCKLING) they're won't be so wicked

when me and Anne are finished with 'em,

if ya get my meanin'.

You don't understand.
I know these men, or I used to.

And they're not themselves.

They're...

They're changed or something.
(INHALES SHARPLY)

Right. You need to calm yourself.

Start from the beginning.

Come on, give her a mushroom.

No, not that one. That's my one.
Put it back.

(SOMBER MUSIC PLAYING)

(THUNDERCLAP)

BOORMAN: Yeah, it's definitely left.

-No, no doubt about it.
-Left?

Left will take us through Pitiless Pass.

The wagon won't make it.

It will. That's fine craftsmanship.

And Pitiless Pass, I mean,
while I'll admit is an unfortunate name,

it's actually a perfectly lovely,
nice pass.

Which goes by, might I add,

a cozy little inn called
The Slaughtered Lamb.

Kind of a home away from home
for me and my old partner.

It's got everything you could want,
you know, in an inn.

SILAS: No. What about the other way?

Through Capella Pastures
into Voluptuous Vale.

I mean, that does sound nicer.

Yeah, it also takes longer.

No, it doesn't.

-Does too.
-No, it doesn't.

It does too!

-No, it doesn't. I will cut you.
-Hey!

In case you hadn't noticed,

a portal between dimensions is opening.

And when they reach it,
Elora will be lost.

(SCREAMING)

(GASPS)

(GROANS)

What? What's wrong?

-I'm fine.
-You okay?

-He's fine.
-(EXHALES)

We split up. Cover more ground.

You guys take the safe, long route

and I'll head up to The Slaughtered Lamb.

See if I can't find
the kind of help we really need.

You and Graydon go with them
through the Capella Pastures,

I'll go with Boorman through the pass.

We'll meet up at that Vale of Boobs
or whatever.

I think I should stay with you.

I think I can take care of myself.

Hey, Boorman, don't let anything happen
to my queen.

Okay, then. I'd rather die
a thousand deaths than fail you.

Good luck.

ELORA: (SIGHS) So, like,
I don't know if I am, or not.

Willow thinks I am,
but the princess definitely doesn't.

It's like she hates me.

I don't know why,
but no matter what I do or say,

she just always takes
the opposite position.

Do you know how exhausting that gets?

May we see it?

What?

The mark.

(ENCHANTING MUSIC PLAYING)

(HUBERT GASPS)

It's really you, innit?

Do you think?

(BREATHES HEAVILY)
I think we've tarried too long.

We must depart this spooky forest at once.

Oh. Thank you.

Uh, find a fortress, stronghold.
Somewhere to keep you safe.

Oh, no. I'm going to the Immemorial City,

to rescue Airk from the Crone.

Right, while we are unfamiliar
with that place or individual,

we answer the call.

The call?

When the True Empress,
that being you, returns,

she is to gather a great host at her back

and lead them against
the forces of darkness.

Anne and I would like to enlist.

We will fight at your side

and faithfully serve you
from now until our last.

(SIGHS)

(EXHALES)

Well, I'm not entirely sure
that that's necessary.

Oh, whoa.

You are more than raw celestial power
and gorgeous skin.

You are a symbol of hope,

that no matter your creed,
nor size, nor disposition,

we all share the same world,
breathe the same air,

drink the same water.

And we are obligated to protect it

and, if need be, die for it.

-Couldn't have said it better myself.
-(ELORA GASPS)

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING)

Trust me, ma'am, you do not
wanna go down that road.

Oh, you are right there, sir.

Violence is never our preferred path.

Though I suspect your intentions
toward the young lady

are less than honorable,

maybe even downright dastardly.

We all want the same thing.

I doubt that very much.

You are not a well man.

I've never felt better in my life.

I'm about to be rewarded.

The only thing you're about to be...

is chopped to bits.

(BALLANTINE GRUNTS)

(BALLANTINE GROANING)

(HUBERT GRUNTS)

No!

(BALLANTINE BREATHING HEAVILY)

(HUBERT GROANS)

Come on, quick. We gotta go. Come on.

Come on.

(OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING)

(ELORA GRUNTS)

ELORA: Come on. We have to keep moving.

Come on. Look, we're almost out.

(GRUNTS)

(ANNE WHIMPERING)

Please, just let her go.

Please, I'll come with you,
just don't hurt her.

(PANTING, GASPS)

(HORSE WHINNIES)

(THUNDER RUMBLING)

You're responsible.

Your arrogance and defiance
got them killed.

Countless more will die.

But you can still save them.

All you have to do is submit.

BOORMAN: Come on.

-(HORSE WHINNIES)
-You are embarrassing me.

Keep going.

Oh, yeah, I'm trying. I just think maybe
his enthusiasm has waned.

The Cuirass.

BOORMAN: Ah. Well. After Thuul impaled
his little brother on a spike...

The part about my father.

(BOORMAN GRUNTS)

I was the young, handsome, heroic one.

He was my, uh,

slightly shorter comedic foil.

And where'd you go?

Why did you come back and he didn't?

There's no such thing as fate.

Okay, you get lucky or you get dead.

I got lucky.

So, you actually saw him?

No. But I know what I know.

How?

'Cause if he were alive,

if he'd come back,
things would be different.

You know, the Cuirass isn't a weapon.

It's a shield.

Against what?

Darkness.

(THUNDER RUMBLING)

(GRAYDON AND JADE GRUNTING)

JADE: This wagon sucks.

Oh, I hate it.

(GRUNTING)

You'd think that Willow would
contribute a bit more,

being the world's
last great sorcerer and all.

(GRAYDON GRUNTS, SIGHS)

What?

Maybe there's a reason
he moved the Nelwyn underground.

Maybe he can't protect them anymore.

(SIGHS) Is that even possible?

Can a sorcerer lose his mojo?

SILAS: Come on.

(BOTH GRUNTING)

Stop! Stop! The harness, it's gonna break.

Seriously?

It's old.

So are we.
Remember working on McKraken's farm?

Plowing the fields
from sun up to sun down?

Still had enough energy
to dance with Kiaya till dawn.

-SILAS: Uh-huh, yeah.
-(SIGHS)

I just wish I'd known then
what I know now.

How precious it all is. (GRUNTS)

Maybe if I had I'd...

SILAS: Boo-hoo.
You're breaking my heart over here.

(SILAS SIGHS)

You know what you've got to do.

What are you waiting for?

When I was young, resilient,

I could take the punishment.

But now I have to be careful,

-preserve my strength for...
-For what?

For when it gets worse.

How could it possibly get any worse?

It can and it will.

Trust me.

And I can't let my emotions
impel me to waste my magic.

If I do, I won't have enough
left to fight when we get to...

(EERIE WHISPERING)

(THUNDERCLAP)

Hey, I know where they're going.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING)

KIT: It's a graveyard.

Hey, what can I say?
I'm as disappointed as you are.

What happened to The Slaughtered Lamb?

Must have gone out of business?

(SCOFFS) Has anything you said been true?

How dare you?

At least one-third of everything
I've said has been true.

I'm such an idiot.

No, you're not.
You're just... You're very young.

I'm going back.

No, no, no. Wait, wait.

Maybe I can catch up with Jade...

Okay, the guy who owned this place
was a close friend of your father's.

Okay, we trusted him.

And he's the only person we told
the secret of the Cuirass to

because we knew
he'd take that secret to his grave.

(THUNDER RUMBLING)

KIT: It's down there?

There's only one way
to find out, Princess.

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING)

(KIT SIGHS)

(HISSING)

Over here.

Yeah. I'm not going down there.

Of course not. (SCOFFS)
I need you to stay here and pull me up.

Look out for the wererats.

-What?
-BOORMAN: See ya.

Uh, what are wererats?

BOORMAN: Um, exactly what they sound like.

(OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING)

(HORSE WHINNIES)

(THUNDER RUMBLING)

MERRICK: A trap?

Why would they leave
their horses out in the open?

MERRICK: I don't know, why?

-They wouldn't be.
-KEENE: Huh?

It doesn't matter.

Up that path, across the plateau,
and through the gates.

We are awaited, my brothers.

We are going home.

ELORA: (SCOFFS)
You're not "going home."

You're gonna die.

Look at yourselves, you're a mess.

(SCOFFS) You're not meant to survive this,

and somewhere deep inside
that rotting shell, you know it.

(ELORA GRUNTS)

What?

(BREATHES DEEPLY) I changed my mind.

I...

decline.

You are going up that path.

Make me.

(KEENE GROWLS)

(SCREAMING IN PAIN)

How did you?

(CHUCKLES)

I'm magic, you stupid cankers!

I'm the greatest sorceress there ever was!

You are no match
for the will of the Crone.

Oh, yes, I am.

I am Elora Danan,

and I will do a spell that will,

that will summon the forces
of good to my aid!

Kick all your asses!

Okay. Show us.

Tuatha... athrock mora... hoatha...

Tuatha... athrock mora... hoatha!

(CHUCKLES)

(BALLANTINE, MERRICK AND KEENE LAUGHING)

-(THUDS)
-(GRUNTS)

Stay away from her, silly ninnies.

Solid insult.
That ought to put them in their place.

(SOLEMN MUSIC PLAYING)

Please, let me help you.

I've seen the future, Jade.

Looked into the void.

The Eternal One will cleanse this world
of all disease and pain.

We shall be free.

(INTENSE MUSIC PLAYING)

(GROWLS)

(GROWLING)

KIT: Ugh!

Did you find it yet?

BOORMAN: No, not yet.

KIT: (MUFFLED)
Then it's probably not down there.

Boorman!

Hello? (ECHOES)

You gotta come back to reality, Boorman.
This is indestructible magic armor.

(BLOWS)

I can't believe I let you sucker me
into something so ridiculous.

BOORMAN: As what, Elora Danan?

No, no, no, I'm with you.

You know,
if she could actually do anything,

then I'd say maybe
you were being too tough on her,

-maybe even punishing her
-(CHITTERING)

for your dad leaving.

But she couldn't even
do the simplest spell.

And you're supposed to, what?

-Just have faith in her,
-Uh...

-that she's gonna save Airk?
-Boorman?

(CHITTERING)

You know what?
I don't think it's down here.

Just, uh, pull me up, yeah? (SIGHS)

KIT: I would, but I think there is this...

(CHITTERING)

...thing that is looking at me
in a not-friendly way.

BOORMAN: Is it a wererat?

I'm gonna say yes.

Okay, in that case, don't pull me up.

(JADE GRUNTS)

-(BALLANTINE ROARS)
-(JADE GRUNTS)

(SILAS GRUNTING)

Come on then! Come on!

(WERERATS SCREECHING)

We have to find another way out.

It's a little bit disorientating because
some of these tunnels go on for a ways.

So no Cuirass?

Uh, let's try to break through
one of the burial mounds.

If I get bit,
yours is the first flesh I'm tasting!

(KEENE GRUNTING)

(ELORA YELLS)

GRAYDON: Get off!

Come on.

I'm staying. I'm fighting.

No! I'm the reason you got taken
in the first place.

I won't let that happen again.

No! I won't let anyone else die
because of me.

(BOTH GRUNTING)

(BALLANTINE ROARING)

(JADE YELPS)

(THUNDER RUMBLING)

Oi, he was mine!

Come on.

(KIT GRUNTING)

(BOORMAN GRUNTING)

This isn't a fight we can win.

Then do something! Do magic!

We need to get everyone in the wagon.

I packed a jar of sermillian wax.

You what! You know how dangerous that is?

It's fine. Relax. I know what I'm doing.

There should be enough to repel them.

If we can just get everyone to stop
fighting and get back in the wagon...

(EXPLOSION)

On second thought, keep fighting!

Don't waste your magic.

There is something you could do.

(SILAS SHUDDERS, GRUNTS)

Give this to Libby.

Tell her that I wasn't scared
because I've had a great life

and that I died doin'
what I was supposed to,

protecting my best friend.

(SILAS EXHALES DEEPLY)

I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.

(BALLANTINE BREATHING HEAVILY)

You did good, kid.

(JADE SOBS)

(GRUNTS SOFTLY)

Listen to me.

Every road you've ever walked
has led you here, to this moment.

You have to protect them.

If you don't, Tir Asleen, Galladoorn,

the world will fall
to the will of the Crone.

But she fears Elora Danan.

-(SOBS)
-Elora must reach

the Immemorial City, Jade.

(GRUNTS)

(INHALES SHARPLY) Do it.

(SOBBING) I can't. No...

BALLANTINE: It has to be you.

I'm so proud of you, Jade.

Training you, raising you,
the best thing I ever did.

(JADE CRYING)

(SHUDDERS, GRUNTS)

Now please, release me.

(SNIFFLES)

(JADE YELLS)

(JADE SOBBING)

(SOMBER MUSIC PLAYING)

Are you okay?

Horses are gone. They ran off.

And I think they had the right idea.

The Pitiless Pass is about to become
the Pitiless Lake.

I don't think we can
get out the way we came in.

There's another way.

KIT: Those steps?

No. We can't go that way.

Why not?

Okay, well, now you can do magic,
you wanna fly us out of here?

No? Well, then I'm going up
the big, scary steps.

(OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING)

(SIGHS)

(THUNDER RUMBLING)

ELORA: Are you okay?

Uh. Just need a rest.

Then we resume your training.

You've still a long way to go.

Maybe if I had the wand...

(GRAYDON GROANING)

Wait! Graydon's hurt!

Bad magic.

We have to get him to shelter! Something!

Yeah? And what do you suggest, huh?

We're right in the middle of...
