(dragon roaring)

(Ulrich groaning)

Loki, God of chaos. You are free.

Loki.

This body, you found me, is pathetic.

Too feeble and weak to express the extent of my strength.

When Loki unleashes his fury,

no one will be safe anywhere.

Thanks to all of you and Ulrich,

I wasn't possessed by him.

We are the only ones who can stop Loki.

Hugo's right, it's now or never.

Which means we might still have a chance to stop him.

Hmm.
Hmm.

(melodic medieval music)

(hammers clanging)

(suspenseful orchestral music)

(Turstin sighs)

(hammer continues clanging)

Do you think if I stayed down in that cave,

I could have stopped Loki from waking up?

I feel so guilty.

Stop, Hugo. It was all our faults.

But there was no way we were gonna let

that horrible beast take possession of your body.

Oh yeah.

Algythe?

(gasps) Ah, just in time, children.

Anything you find out about Loki, you must tell me.

We need to know his powers, his strength and weaknesses.

Hmm.
Hmm.

That malevolent dragon may have managed to return,

but we will figure out a way to defeat him, I promise.

(Algythe groaning)

Algythe.
Algythe.

Are you all right?

I'm afraid my recent amnesia has made me weak.

I no longer even have the strength to sort these parchments.

You should rest.

Alice and I'll sort these out.

There's no time. Who knows what Loki is planning?

We can't even be sure he stayed in Balagan.

(soft orchestral music)

(Alice speaking in foreign language)

Oh, I can't figure this one out.

Well, that rune is Uruz. It's a rune of strength.

Uruz lends power to your attacks.

Good, very good, Hugo.

Very soon you will no longer need me

to read the words of our ancestors.

I'm not so sure about that, Algythe.

Although it is true that reading the runes

is getting easier for me.

Well, maybe, but matching the right runes to spells,

not quite there.

Oh, ah.

What is this?

Mm.

(gasps) It speaks of Rollo.

Huh?
Huh?

I almost forgot about this.

It confirms that Loki's skeleton

was dispersed across the land after his defeat.

So can Loki complete

his reincarnation without his dragon body?

No, that's why he tried to possess me in the cave.

Lucky that Ulrich showed up when he did.

But you don't think that maybe Loki took possession

of Ulrich instead?

I'm not sure.

It seemed like I was the only one

they wanted to use for the ritual.

I hope he got away.

Whether or not he did, Loki has been reincarnated.

We all felt his presence, don't you remember?

But if he hopes to recover his legendary power,

he must find his original body and take his dragon form.

After so long, some of his bones must have turned to dust.

Or they look like rotten boar teeth.

Ugh.
(both giggling)

It is not funny.

Loki is the worst creature our world has ever known.

Even if he were now an insect, he could destroy us.

Hugo, as a descendant of Rollo,

you are the only one who can save us.

(Hugo sighs)

Yes, I know I'm asking a lot, but we must find Loki,

and hope that he has not left the area.

(both sigh)

If you find out anything at all, return here.

(door thumping)

(door rumbling)

(Algythe gasps)

What? Why the long faces?

Did you think I was gonna leave you

to clean up this mess on your own?

It's my fault too if the giant lizard has returned.

You're just in time. We're going on a quest with Hugo.

Children, we know Loki reappeared in the cave of Balagan.

If you return there, you will surely find something useful.

But be careful.

You're not coming with us?

No, as I said before,

my bout with amnesia has left me weak.

Good luck in the cave.

Thanks.

(door slams)

(suspenseful music)

Huh? Wace, Lil' Golès, what are you doing here?

Hello.

We were hoping to find something that might lead us to Loki,

and we wanted to pay our respects to you to Jotunn.

We found these tracks.

If we follow 'em, they should lead us to his lair,

or at least in the right direction.

Well, then let's follow them

and hope they lead to his hiding place.

Algythe wasn't sure, but he might still be in the area.

Show us the path.

Wait.

Algythe also told us we have to be careful.

We really have no idea how strong he is.

So no heroics. Got it?

There's no way Loki can stand up to my hammer.

You think?

If he uses his spells,

you might not get the chance to swing it.

You sure this is a good idea?

Personally, I don't wanna end up on the menu

for Loki's dinner.

No one is going to get eaten.

We'll go find this layer of Loki, scout it out,

discover anything we can about it for Algythe,

and come back here.

Mm-hmm.

We'll be fine if we stick together. Come on, let's go.

(suspenseful orchestral music)

(Wace whimpering)

Alice, all of us are already on edge.

It doesn't help to scare them like that.

Well, they're not the only ones I'm worried about.

We'll be careful. Promise.

(ominous music)

(bones clacking)

(wolf whimpering)

Mm?

(wolves whimpering)

Mm.

(wolf whimpering)

How much longer will I have to wait?

Will it be another 300 years

before these stupid animals recover all of my bones?

Father, my brother Fenrir and his wolves

have been searching all over Balagan

for your dragon's skeleton for months now,

and they've found nearly all of it.

A few of the bones are just harder to locate.

You think I'm interested in your excuses?

Go and find the rest and do not return until you have.

Now get outta my sight

As you wish, father.

Will you be coming with us?

No, I must try to master this body

that I've been imprisoned in.

To think I've wasted all these years just to be held hostage

in a powerless husk. (grunts)

(ominous orchestral music)

(Fenrir roars)

Hmm? That's strange.

It's like they're going in circles

Well, if Fenrir and his wolves

don't know where they're going,

I don't see how they're supposed to lead us to Loki.

If the Grand Goblin were here, he'd know what to do.

But he's not. It's up to us to figure it out.

The tracks stop going in circles

just beyond on this bush over here.

(sand crunching)

(Hugo gasps)

(wolf panting)

Shh. He hasn't seen us.

He's looking for something.

And he's got blue eyes like the wolves

that attack the farm, Hugo.

Look.

Fenrir, he's controlling the wolves' minds.

Hugo, what do you think he's looking for?

Maybe we can find that out.

(sand crackling)

You wanna try a spell?

Yeah.

You sure that's a good idea?

We'll be fine. Try to get the wolf's attention.

(others panting)

Hey, wolfie.

Yoo-hoo. (chuckles)

(whimpering) Over here.

Hey, we should get moving.

(tense orchestral music)
(wolf growling)

Almost.

(Hugo speaking in foreign language)

(Lil' Golès groans)

Huh? What did you do?

Incredible.

Your spells are getting more and more impressive.

I have to tell you, I wasn't sure it would work.

(Hugo panting)

(Ulrich groaning)

(wolf bellowing)

(Hugo gasps)

Are you all right?

Did you see something?

It was a whirlwind.

I saw Fenrir, Hela, Ulrich, and spirits.

A dead tree on a rock and a wolf with a bone in his mouth.

Hmm.

This rock that you saw, were there any trees nearby?

Was there tall grass or flowers?

There were dead trees all over,

like a forest during winter?

No grass or flowers.

It was like where Brunhilda was living,

but not exactly.

Well, that sounds like it must be in the dark forest.

Follow me.

(ominous orchestral music)

(all panting)

The strange howling is frightening the villagers,

and there are the crows.

It's not normal, Dame Neel.

This would appear at my lady that some of the guards

are refusing to go out on patrol in the area.

What's this cowardice?

The castle's equipped you with swords and spears and you,

you are afraid of a few birds and a bit of howling?

Hava, can you explain why Hela

and Ulrich still haven't been found?

Those two at least had some courage

Dame Neel, there's something you should know.

I have spoken to my contacts in the neighboring lads,

and no one has ever heard of this woman called Hela.

I'm afraid my lady, she was sent here

by a rival Lord so that she could spy on you,

Capture William, and hand him over to her real master.

And I shouldn't be at all surprised if Ulrich

was in league with her.

Mother, don't let him say that about Ulrich.

I'll remind you, he was a loyal captain of the guard

and he always took good care of me, your son.

Again, with the incessant whining.

Remember who you are.

If you hope one day to rule Normandy,

you should learn to recognize the difference

between your enemies and your allies.

Ulrich's not my enemy, he's my friend.

Ah.

Lil' Golès, are you sure you know where we're going?

It feels like we've been walking for hours.

I know that all the trees here still have their leaves,

but just trust me.

It should be right this way.

(crows cawing)

There it is. The entrance to the dark forest.

Let's go.

(ominous orchestral music)
Oh no.

(crows cawing)
(wings fluttering)

(ominous orchestral music continues)

(Loki groaning)

Huh?

Oh.

This body is far too weak a vessel to contain my strength.

(ominous orchestral music continues)

(Loki sniffs)
(crows cawing)

Hmm.

I miss the nice forests of Balagan.

This place gives me the creeps.

By tonight, Turstin, you'll be safe at home,

and that's a promise.

(ominous orchestral music)

Hold on.

The dead tree, on the rock. The one from my vision.

That means we must have found-

Must be Fenrir's layer.

(ominous orchestral music continues)

(Wace whimpering)

(tense orchestral music)

Over there. It's Ulrich.

(Loki groaning)

My leg.

It's lucky for me that you happen to come this way.

Come help me up.

You're alive.

Of course, why wouldn't I be?

I managed to escape from the cave,

but not before I was injured by that sorceress.

She pushed me.

I hit my head and I woke up out here.

I think my leg is broken.

And are you still you?

You've not been...?

Am I still me? (chuckles)

I can't remember exactly what happened down there.

I tried to defend myself, but ever since I woke up here,

I've been confused and my leg is too hurt

to make the journey home.

Hugo, you don't really think we could trust him?

Ulrich was in my vision as well.

I don't think he's trying to trick us.

I mean, his wound looks real enough.

I know I've brought you trouble before,

but help me before they return.

He'll finish me off, feed me to his wolves.

We have to leave.

Mm.

We'll bring Ulrich back to the castle.

If the young man would be so kind as to help me stand up,

I'm most eager to see good Lord Anorith again.

(Hugo and Alice gasp)

Anorith?

But Anorith has been dead for years.

He was the ruler of Balagan in Rollo's time.

That was 300 years ago.

Yeah, no one would remember Anorith,

except for the Grand Goblin or (gasps)

Somebody who was around back then.

Loki.

(ominous orchestral music)

(sighs) Looks like I've been discovered.

(bow crackles)

(sword slashes)

(wind whooshing)

(Wace whimpering)

Loki, you possessed Ulrich?

This body's most unbecoming, wouldn't you say?

When Hela and Fenrir failed to use me as your host,

they used Ulrich instead.

As a mere human, you were of course not perfect,

but I would've enjoyed possessing the heart

and soul of the heir of Rollo.

How did you know we'd figure out how to find you?

It was unwise to come knocking at my door.

Nature and animals talk incessantly,

you must learn how to listen.

And as the Lord and master of these lands, I sense all,

even your deepest, most secret fears.

I'm not scared you are lying.

Hmm.
(ominous orchestral music)

Oh no.

He really is Loki.

Hugo, we have to run.

We can't face him now.

(all panting)

Let's get outta here.

(Loki chuckles)

(ground rumbling)
(Wace whimpering)

We've just been introduced and already, you are leaving?

Really now. That's not very polite.

(Wace whimpering)

(Lil' Golès groaning)

(Lil' Golès panting)

(laughing) You honestly believe you can harm me

with these pathetic pebbles?

(ground rumbles)

Hugo, he's got us trapped. Use your bow.

I'm not gonna risk hurting Ulrich.

You thought you could keep me locked away

in that stone prison?

But today, I will finally have my revenge, Rollo.

(Loki groans)

Yes, run more.

Your ancestor was a worthy opponent,

but that's something that you'll never be.

Hugo, that's Ulrich. It's the god of chaos.

(Hugo panting)

Oh, that name takes me back. Reminds me of my youth.

(bow crackling)

(arrow whirring)

(gasps) Hugo, be careful.

(arrow whirring)

(Alice gasps)

(laughing) Yes, be careful.

You might end up hurting your little friends.

He can deflect your arrows. Hugo, watch out.

(Hugo gasps)

(ground thuds)

(chuckles) You are truly pathetic.

But now your time has come.

You will die for the sins of your ancestor.

I'm not afraid. My friends won't let that happen.

Hugo.

(all whimpering)

You mean them?

Sorry, Hugo.

You and your group of urchins wish to die like heroes?

Very well, then you'll die.

But your deaths will not be heroic.

(Loki groans)

(Loki grunting)

(Loki panting)
Look,

Loki just collapsed.

What do you think's wrong with him?

I don't know.

Huh?
But this is a good time

to get outta here.

But what if we finished him off now?

Turstin, wait. Even weakened, Loki is stronger than you.

Let's get away while we can.

(Loki groaning)

A curse upon you, humans. I will destroy you.

(Loki screaming)

Huh, go.

(ominous music)

(Loki panting)

Father, what's wrong? Are you hurt?

I would've been fine,

had you and your brother stayed here

to protect your poor father.

But, but you said...

Silence.

I should have been reincarnated in my dragon form.

Not in this human body that's almost as pathetic as you.

(Hela groans)

Some god of chaos.

God of impatience more like.

If he wasn't our father, I'd strangle him with my bare...

(Fenrir snarls)

You are right, Fenrir.

Being imprisoned has made him bitter.

I'm sure his mood will improve

once we reassembled the skeleton.

What on earth were you thinking?

You promised me you wouldn't confront him.

Thought it was the real Ulrich and I wanted to save him.

You couldn't have known Ulrich was possessed.

This is only the beginning

of that demon Loki's reign of chaos.

Not really that powerful for a demon.

We noticed that in Ulrich's body,

Loki wasn't as powerful as he wanted to be.

(sighs) Then we know two things.

That firstly, Loki is hiding somewhere nearby,

and that his layer is with the wolves.

And second in the body of Ulrich,

he cannot destroy Normandy, at least not yet.

But he has enough power to stop my arrows.

My bow will be useless against him.

Then there is but one plan for us to attempt.

We must destroy part of the dragon skeleton

before it can be reassembled.

Did you spy any bones anywhere in their layer?

Well, there were these strange branches

at the entrance to the wolves layer.

Maybe they were bones, but with Loki attacking us,

I didn't have time to check.

Did they look like this?

Oh yes, exactly like that. There were a lot of them.

Those are Loki's bones.

You said there were lots. Did the skeleton seem complete?

Absolutely no idea, we were mostly trying to escape.

After seeing what Loki can do in the body of a human,

I can't imagine how powerful he'd be as a dragon.

Oh, too frightening to think of.

(seagulls squawking)

I never dreamed things would be this dangerous.

You said it.

I really wasn't sure we were going to make it.

I'll be so happy to see my parents tonight. Ow.

What did I say?

Nothing. It's fine, Turstin.

Well anyway, we are your family now.

Unless you don't like us. (giggling)

Hmm.

(horn honks)
(Alice gasps)

Is it really them?

Alice?

Can it be true?

What's going on?

Did I say something else I shouldn't have?

Alice, what's going on?

I can see my father's boat. He's come back.

(Hugo sighs)

(horn honks)

(morose music)
