[woman narrating]

[Ezran] Two dark mages
are traveling through Xadia

trying to unleash an ancient
and mysterious evil.

[Ezran] Great dragons, I beseech you,
help us find them.

[growling in unison]

We have to go to the Great Bookery
of Lux Aurea

to search for the Scrolls
of the First Elves

and learn everything we can
about Aaravos before he returns.

[Gren] "And I'm coming with you."

[guard captain]
And you are hereby banished,

never to return.

Please…

Show me that not all is lost.

You are our only hope,
Prince Karim of Lux Aurea.

Lead us back to glory.

[opening theme music playing]

[somber music playing]

[horse neighs]

It's peaceful.

Super creepy, a bit spooky.
Might even say "eerie."

But peaceful!

"The city is full of hidden danger."

"The corruption of the Sun Orb infected
innocent creatures and changed them."

Of course!

That must have been what attacked us
that night, a corrupted Banther.

Oh, it was horrible.

[Gren] "Janai wanted so badly
to cleanse Lux Aurea,

but we failed."

"The shadowmonsters
are dangerous killers."

"But even worse, just a single scratch

would spread the corruption
to elves, humans, horses."

"The infected became corrupted shadows
within a matter of days."

[squeaks]

[Gren] "The shadowbeasts hide
during the day to avoid the Sun."

"We have five hours before sundown…

five hours to complete our mission."

[horse neighs]

This is it.

The Great Bookery of Lux Aurea.

[majestic music playing]

[grunts]

I have so many happy memories here
from my time at university.

Would you like to see my favorite place
in the Great Bookery?

Ta-da!

Is that a, uh, book drop?

Perhaps to your untrained eye,
it is merely a book drop,

but to me
it was an impenetrable reading fortress.

I figured out the secret to opening it
by watching the librarians.

[metal clangs]

I would sometimes hide in there
after the library closed

so I could read all night.

Looks cozy.

I did have a book dropped on my head
from time to time,

but most of them were quite interesting.

"Enough reminiscing about your wild
and crazy student years."

"We only have until sundown,
so get to work."

[grunting from a distance]

Go away.

So, what is it exactly we're looking for?

Startouch elf cultural practices?

Perhaps one of the many
Startouch prophecies?

What do we need to learn?

How to kill a Startouch elf.

Hmm, I don't think
there's a dedicated section for that.

[Gren] "Rayla, there's something
I've been meaning to say to you."

"Back when I first met you
at the Banther Lodge,

it wasn't right the way I treated you."

Oh, you mean by trying to kill me?

[Gren] "I judged you
because you were an elf."

"Now I know how very wrong I was
about elves."

"I'm in love with one."

"Anyway…

I am truly sorry that I threatened you."

Eh, no bother. Apology accepted.

[Gren] "That means a lot to me."

"Now that that's out of the way…"

"If you ever hurt my nephew Callum
again…

I will kill you."

[grunting]

I am Prince Karim.

Corruption and treachery
have infected Xadia.

It's a wound that has been festering
for a thousand years.

Humans in their weakness
allowed evil to flourish.

And though the land was divided,
now humans have come back to Xadia.

The Sunfire Kingdom is lost in darkness.

They're waiting for the light to return.

They are waiting for you,
the true King of the Dragons.

[grunts]

Hey, this is interesting. A poem.

Kazi… I like poems too,
but we have to focus.

No, no, no, this poem
is called "The Death of the Immortal."

You think I meant to hurt Callum?

That's the last thing I wanted.

"You abandoned him, you broke his heart."

I was trying to protect him.

I left without him

because I couldn't bear
to put him in danger.

I knew I had to be strong alone.

"You know who you sound like?"

-Who?
-[Gren] "Me."

Oh…

Thanks, I think.

"When I was growing up,

my big sister Sarai was the smartest,
strongest, bravest person I knew."

"When she died,
I felt lost and weak without her."

"I hated feeling that way,
so I learned to be strong alone."

"Stoic, strong…

and lonely."

[exhales sharply]

That does sound like me sometimes.

"But the last two years
have changed everything."

"Meeting Janai, falling in love,

I am stronger than I ever was…

because we are stronger together."

"And I realized that was the real truth
of me and Sarai too."

"Love and trust grow a kind of strength

that is much bigger than we each possess."

"To have that kind of strength,
it's not enough to love someone."

"You have to trust them
to share the burdens you carry."

Thank you.

Would it be okay if I…?

[Prince Karim] Xadia needs you.

Sol Regem, the Sun King.

You can make them believe the Sun
will shine again.

Then behold…

the once great Sun King.

Bask in the brilliant rays of light

that shine through the holes
in my tattered wings.

Gaze upon the mighty face
of my golden glory,

dripping with seared flesh,

melted by evil magic.

Bow down
before the swollen oozing bedsores

of a magnificent archdragon,

lying motionless and depressed
for decades.

[growling]

I lost my hope
long before I lost my sight.

The Sun will never rise again for me.

I've lived centuries
in this eternal night.

Go…

away.

[Kazi] "…and though undying,
took last breath,

immortal Laurelion was no more."

That's good, right?

I mean, when someone "was no more,"
that-that's dead, yeah?

It's a bit confusing,
but that is the clearest implication.

Though, it is somewhat odd
they call them undying and immortal.

Well, that doesn't sound so immortal?

-Laurelion "was no more."
-Right.

-But how? How did they…?
-Right here.

"White as the star's heart it pierced,

ivory draconic brought death's bite
known ever forth as Novablade."

It's a sword.

A weapon that can end
a Startouch Elf's mortal existence.

The weapon.

We did it.

We found the answer.

Research.
It's fun and it saves the world sometimes.

Hey, Callum?

We need to talk.

Callum. There's a burden I'm carrying.

And I've kept it a secret,

and maybe that's part of what's
making things weirder with us.

But I think I know that I trust you
to help me carry this.

If you're okay with that?

Rayla, we've been through a lot.

And a lot has changed.

Ah, um, well, some things have changed,
but not everything.

Uh…

I would do anything for you.

Runaan isn't dead. My parents aren't dead.

Lord Viren did something to them.

He captured their spirits
in these cursed coins.

It hurts me to know
they're trapped like this.

It's agonizing.

But I know our mission comes first.

The world is in danger,
and you can trust me to stay focused.

We can help them.
Rayla, we can undo this spell.

Not yet, Callum.

Believe me, I want to do something, but…

I saw something on one of the scrolls
we were just reading. I'm sure of it.

A spell that can restore bodies
to separated spirits.

[Gren] "It's almost sundown."

"Time to get going."

Callum, we have to leave.

Two minutes, that's all I need.

Just give me one minute, two, uh…

I said… I mean, give me two minutes.

[Pharos] That was our chance.

And we failed.

No.

He may have closed the door…

but he gave us the key.

What key?

Blindness has made Sol Regem bitter.

We will find a way
to heal the great archdragon's eyes.

[Gren] "It's sundown."

"You need to get out of the city
as fast as possible."

"I'll get Callum,
and we'll catch up with you."

[Stella chitters excitedly]

I found something.

[Callum grunting]

Wait, I need that to save Rayla's parents.

[Stella chittering]

Yes!

The spell is complex,
and it uses star magic

so, to do it, I need these.

Quasar Diamonds.

There are only three in the entire world,
and you'll never guess where they are.

-The Starscraper.
-Never heard of it.

It happens to be the same place
where they keep the Novablade.

That's great. What's a Novablade?

[roaring]

"There's a second exit. Follow me."

[growling from a distance]

[growling continues]

-[growls]
-Ahh!

[panting]

[snarling]

What now?

"We fight."

Remember, even one scratch,
and you'll be corrupted.

[roars]

Ahh!

Aspiro Frigis!

[shadowbeast moans]

[grunts]

Shoot, Rayla!

Ventum angulus!

We did it. Barely.

We make a good team. Stronger together.

So safer to pick exit number one,
or exit number two?

[growling from a distance]

I think you spoke too soon.

There's too many this time.

[wistful music playing]

Rayla, I was wrong.

I waited too long.

-I hope you know--
-I know.

[shadowbeasts snarling]

[roars]

[epic music playing]

[roaring]

All the action you can handle…
at the library.

Come on, everybody, climb on.

[shadowbeasts snarling]

Bait! We left Bait.

[whimpering]

[suspenseful music playing]

[worried grunt]

[Soren grunts]

We're not leaving without you, Aunt Amaya.

Go!

[somber music playing]

[growling intensely]

[grunts]

[screaming]

It's been the greatest honor
to serve under you.

[growling nearby]

[roars]

The book drop. They made it.

They'll be safe.
