your name? What are you doing?

[ snarling ]

I'm a friend.

who are you?

in an age when nature and magic rule the world...

there is an extraordinary legend:

the story of a warrior

who communicates with animals,

who fights sorcery and the unnatural.

his name is dar, last of his tribe.

he's also called...

I'm not frightened of you.

there's no reason to be...

-once you return that. -you broke my spear.

-I saved your life. -you saved the wolf's life.

-it stole my food. -she was only hungry.

it deserved to die.

you stole my weapon.

do you deserve to die?

turn and go back the way you came,

otherwise I'm going to beat you.

my friend wouldn't like that.

have him come out. I'll beat him as well.

he's right behind you.

I don't believe you.

you lie.

never.

turn slowly.

very slowly.

now, give me back my club,

and I promise he won't get angry.

how do I know you're trustworthy?

I already told you. I never lie.

[ roaring ]

his name is ruh, and you and he are alike.

you're headstrong.

are you going to kill me?

no.

but killing is on your mind.

why?

some friends of mine were taken prisoner

by terrons.

why were you close to them?

our tribe sent us out for the moon's passing.

-a rite of passage? -yes.

what were you supposed to do?

find a truth.

one simple truth.

where did the terrons take your friends?

I followed to their camp near the great lake.

the camp isn't there any more.

I saw it...from the cliffs.

I couldn't get close. but I have a plan.

see, I'm going to capture a terron warrior

and trade him for my friend's freedom.

follow me.

why?

'cause you need more than a plan.

you need help.

[ horses neighing ]

I was told there were three.

we're still searching for the other.

the mydlands.

slaves and thieves come from the mydlands.

we're not thieves.

you are what I say you are.

and what shall that be?

are you princes

come from the mydlands to shower me

with gifts -- I don't see them.

great warriors

dragged in by horses to destroy my camp?

[ laughing ]

I think not.

no.

you are dead men.

that's what you are.

what shall it be?

tigers?

torture?

[ laughing ]

beheading?

take them away...

until I decide.

[ hollering ]

I see you don't like the way I treat my enemies.

they're just boys. They've done nothing to harm you.

boys grow into men.

everyone of them from the mydlands is an enemy.

then keep them and let them work in your camp.

and feed them, guard them, house them...

while I wait for the day they kill one of my men?

their lives aren't worth it.

and your thirst for blood is?

any life is

worth more than an unfair death at your hands.

is it?

how much more?

is your compassion for the value of life truly honest

or just a woman's foolishness?

life should be cherished.

a noble thought.

if you mean what you say,

then save their lives.

wait for me

inside the crystals.

I'll show you I'm not horrible and cruel

by letting them live.

I told you before,

if you take me, you can never win my heart.

not true, kyra.

I'll have your heart...

or those boys will die.

I'm glad you didn't hurt the wolf.

they're like people.

individualistic, come from strong families, very loyal.

they take one mate for life. did you know?

of course you knew that.

who am I talking to?

or are you even listening?

he said he saw the terron camp from the cliff.

he's lucky he only peeked.

but the camp's not there any more.

The sorceress made it disappear.

and you and I saw her do it.

maybe.

or maybe it was a trick.

trick? it's what sorcerers do.

it's very simple.

I'll show you.

this is a terron camp.

now you see it.

you just watch very carefully.

where is it?

show me.

a trick.

Then kyra could still be there.

I'm ready.

you don't look it.

I've killed bears with less.

they must have been asleep.

and what have you killed...anything?

killing isn't the purpose.

defending yourself is.

I can defend myself...

against any man.

try me. I'm stronger than you think.

I'm sure you are, but you're weapon's weak.

and you need both.

I don't want to hurt you.

[ snickering ]

you won't.

[ growling ] hmm?

[ snickering ]

[ growling ]

it needs to be stronger.

kyra, what are you doing?

I'm leaving. what?

tonight after king zad

comes to visit me.

what are you talking about?

I'll leave this place, and I'm never coming back.

I want freedom.

nice thoughts,

but how? I'm not sure I understand.

come with me, naom. I have a plan.

with luck, we'll find our way back to the mydlands.

you're serious. more than you know.

kyra, this is madness.

staying here is madness.

but even if you manage to leave the camp,

they torture and kill any slaves who try to escape.

which is better than what they do to the ones who stay.

kyra, please.

I don't want to see you get hurt.

then wish me well.

I do.

and I want to see you again.

we will...

in this world or another.

that looks better.

stronger than my last one.

try it.

did you make this?

my father helped me.

they're called totems.

they mean things

about my tribe and myself.

how does it--

with a twist.

go ahead.

for when you have to fight more than one?

it helps.

let's give your new spear a test.

hit it, as hard as you can.

I think it's a good one.

I've come to hear your decision.

do the prisoners live

or do they die?

they should live.

wise choice.

I knew you would make it.

I've ordered them released...

when I leave here.

I thought that would please you.

it does.

but you don't smile.

I believe true happiness should be kept within.

hidden.

protected.

for one so young...

you offer thoughts beyond your years.

thank you.

yet...

I know you fear me...

don't trust me.

you can't hide that.

you probably hate me.

that's better.

I think only about what will be...

not what is...

not what was...

what have you...

done?

ahhh!

[ groaning ]

what are you looking for? I got what you need.

the beastmaster's eagle.

why was he here?

[ snarling ]

[ howling ]

dar, I couldn't find feno.

he must have left sometime during the night.

something wrong?

did you have a real fight?

no, it's kyra.

-she's escaped the terrons. -how do you know that?

the wolf.

you need my help. I'm coming.

you want me to follow you.

the little witch.

we've searched everywhere.

she's gone.

find her.

go to the sorceress.

And if you value your own life, bring her back to me...

alive!

alive.

[ whimpering ]

it's nothing.

king zad must be angry.

I think it's an emotion he knows well.

the beast will find her...

but when it does,

take care.

it kills its prey.

[ yowling ]

she's led by a wolf?

they're guiding her.

the same wolf that you--

no, not the same.

I don't understand. she's not a beastmaster.

she's a sula, the wovles know it.

what?

terrons.

they're looking for kyra.

we better find her first.

I don't think it'd be a good idea

to waste any time fighting any of them.

he's over here.

don't move, prisoner.

why does this not surprise me?

drop your weapon.

they're getting away!

I need them to trade for my friends.

King zad doesn't trade in flesh.

I should've killed him and thrown his blood at zad's feet.

only the weak kill other men.

warriors kill! and it makes them great men.

killing doesn't make a man anything.

you go after that terron... you go alone.

you should come with us.

a friend escaped from the same terron camp -- when we find her,

we'll have knowledge that will help you.

it's better to be out here with dar than alone.

I understand.

I want the little witch to pay for what she's done!

No, I want her to suffer for it.

a misery greater than any could imagine.

make her skin burn.

weave snakes into her hair.

grow sores on her hands...

and thorns on her breasts.

middling tortures.

simple, really, but

if you want to punish someone...

make them suffer...

you need to know what they value, and then...

[ blowing ]

take it away.

an excellent

thought -- she values

the beastmaster.

take him from her.

Perhaps...but the pain of death goes away with time.

and it might not bring the enjoyment

you want.

well thought, sorceress.

but there is something she would hate more than his death.

she loves him.

make her love...me.

because it's the one thing she would never freely give.

and it's the one thing that would make her suffer.

and give me great pleasure.

the beast has her!

big tracks.

could be a lion.

it's not from nature.

then what?

it's travelling with terrons.

and it's picked up scent.

how can you tell that? just from tracks.

they stop here, and they're longer there.

ah, like it's looking for something.

dar.

it's kyra.

[ growling ]

she's nearby.

what?

what's wrong?

you don't want me to follow any more?

there's danger?

all right.

[ cawing ]

the wolf's left kyra.

the terrons are close.

[ growling ]

something to kill.

we have no time.

how do you know this? sometimes he sees through the

eyes of an eagle. I thought it was a tiger.

that's...a little different.

where is kyra?

[ dar ]: she's found a village.

I don't know the place.

what does it look like?

there's...

there are props...and a tower.

there's no people.

there's no animals.

cicada. I know it.

my friends and I passed there.

is it far?

no. But...

but what?

it's no place for a woman.

come on.

head north.

so beautiful.

joyful little creatures.

for nectar you live...

All the sweetness of the flowers is the love you give.

trifling again?

king zad demanded a potion.

yes, he wants to possess the heart of a woman.

even a wild animal like zad craves love and affection.

it makes them so weak and pathetic.

still, strength comes from

the knowledge of weakness.

I thought you hated emotion.

oh, it can be amusing... in humans.

and not others?

no, no, no, others are different.

I don't understand these human emotions.

they seem so... childish, and yet,

there are times when I wish I could.

believe me -- not everything is worth being understood.

sometimes it's better not to know.

well, that doesn't sound like you.

you know everything.

true -- it's such a burden.

I knew a young sorceress who tasted human emotions.

she fell in love.

another sorcerer

stole her heart.

They spent their days together:

in each other's thoughts, in each other's arms,

even in each other's beds.

Oh, they experienced everything: love, hate, fear, jealousy,

the entire rainbow of human emotions.

but I thought they were forbidden for others like us.

oh, they are.

and the punishment was most severe.

they were destroyed.

He was condemned to immortality, given wings and put into

the sky -- there he lives

with the full, sad memory of his folly.

and the other?

the memory of her lover

and her emotions were taken away.

gone forever...

like yesterday.

a harsh punishment.

but deserved, don't you think?

I come as a friend.

is there anyone there?

is someone here?

[ screaming ]

please, don't hurt me. we're in danger!

men are coming. they're terron warriors.

they're going to kill us if they find us.

let me go! Don't.

don't let me go.

let me go.

don't!

[ screaming ]

no! Ahh! No!

[ growling ]

did anyone see the woman? she can't be far.

[ growling ]

he's a friend. he won't hurt you.

dar.

no one will ever hurt you again -- I promise.

I missed you.

I though I'd never see you again.

I thought the same.

Now I never want to let you go.

I want to be with you always, like before.

tao.

tao.

he's a friend. Also a prisoner at the terron camp.

yes, they were about to feed me to the tigers last time

-you saw me. -and you?

my name is feno.

your markings. you've seen them before?

the terrons took two of my friends. Are they alive?

I'm sorry.

King zad promised them freedom.

the only freedom he gave them was freedom from this life.

we have to hurry.

and tao will need these.

-why? -well, it has something

to do with great cats following scents.

and perceiving no danger, so that

we have all the advantages when we attack.

at least, that's the theory.

by the running water, quickly.

Nearly the same size -- nearly.

ahh...oh, oh, oh.

back!

come on, move.

that way.

don't! Be stronger.

like your spear.

the one who got away will haunt him...

for what he did to my friends.

ohh...

it was a good thing you did back there.

I wanted to, but I couldn't kill him.

if you did, then you'd be a prisoner.

as long as you

seek revenge against your enemies,

you're a prisoner of your own anger.

tell dar I thank him.

I will.

tell him I found what I was supposed to be looking for.

a simple truth.

and what was that?

you don't have to kill to be a man...

or a warrior.

I will tell him.

good luck to you.

I have a place here in the mydlands

where we can live forever.

where is it?

it's high up, where no danger can come.

I feel like my life is starting all over.

it's as if I were asleep and now I'm awake.

I love you.

I'll go find tao.

then we'll go.

yes.

[ screaming ]

kyra! Kyra!

kyra!

teach me, kyra.

teach me about this emotion, love.

gives them strength -- makes them weak at the same time.

what is it?

sleeping beauty...waiting for the kiss of love to awaken her.

beastmaster's beloved... as ordered by king zad.

but you didn't plan

to give her to him, did you?

what makes you think that?

I've warned you before about trifling

with the emotions of humans.

it's a dangerous game.

not for us.

well, they don't fear it.

should i?

[ laughing ]

you have to be careful of emotions.

they have a way of getting under your skin.

no! Kyra!
