Original subtitles

The ruins of Oleg's castle are just over this hill, actually.

We'll sneak in at first light. Sneak?

What are we sneaking for?

Well, the thing about ancient ruins is that there's normally a nasty beastie

that moves in and makes it into a lair.

Makes sense. That's totally how it's been in all the ruins I've played

Played through?

Oh, in my world we have, like, video games. You wouldn't know about it. It's,

like, virtual?

No. electronic. Those two have been up until morning, planning the circus.

Yeah, Flynn is having a one -sided romance with Calibor. It's actually kind

hard to watch.

A bro -man? Yeah.

Oh, yes. No, I see.

Calibor is easy to like. He's clever, relentlessly brave, has a silver

tongue, and in his mind, he means well in all that he does.

But...

But when it goes wrong, and it will go wrong, Calibur will push you face down

the mire and use your back as a stepping stone.

That seems a bit harsh.

Try spending a few moons in deck two.

Then you'll see what's a little harsh.

Wait, is Calibur's fault that you were a prisoner?

I'd rather not speak of it.

But yes, all his fault.

What? What I'm trying to say is that if the rumors are true...

A biclops has taken up residence at Oleg's chief.

Biclops?

What's a biclops?

Sounds like a cyclops, but with two eyes instead of one.

Yes, exactly.

But we have two eyes.

I mean, doesn't that make us biclops as well? What about this is so hard to

understand?

Listen, we're just saying a biclops has two eyes, which is a regular number of

eyes. And therefore, twice as deadly, you idiot. It's just a dude with two

like the rest of us.

Well, best type down or it'll hear you from here.

Did someone say Biclops? Yeah.

Calibor's telling us all about the big, bad Biclops.

Calibor is nuts.

Calibor's right.

Calibor's so right.

The Biclops are the worst.

I hate the Biclops.

What did Calibor just say with a giant two -headed Biclops?

Oh, I think the name of my club is Excellently Chaos. At least we found a

-to -be wayfinder. You make excellent... Excellency!

Red Dancers, go!

Cover us, thank you. The boy might be better off than we are, but feel free to

go out there and die.

The plan that works is by definition a good plan, Princess.

Do you really hear Calibor's guts, huh?

His guts.

More especially his smug face.

And the rest of a general pattern.

Look at it this way. See?

Question, why are the archways so dang tiny?

Oleg was king of the dwarves. Everything here is suitably small.

Flynn, Lanson.

So, Aurora, what's the deal with McGalivore?

I'd rather not think about it.

To quote TikTok, express, don't repress. You gotta feel it to heal it,

right?

No, I'm sorry. I don't understand a word of that. Is that supposed to be clever

just because it's mine?

You need to share your feelings.

Yeah, you know, tell all your friends about it before it builds up and then

head is closed.

You know?

No, it's probably best if I don't. What?

Share your feelings.

Do people from your world really suffer such nonsense?

On second thought, perhaps it's wise you all learn the truth about Arthur M.

Callaghan. What truth?

It started before we even met, when I was betrothed to Prince Vedrick.

Prince Vedrick?

Wait! Stop, stop, stop!

Betrothed? Seriously?

You didn't think it was worth mentioning that you were married to old Prince

Tycho trying to murder us?

Betrothed, not married. It means we were going to get married. Do they not teach

you proper words in your world? That requires reading a book.

But still, Vedrick?

It was an arranged marriage by the royal families to secure the throne and bring

peace and prosperity.

Someday, we will be king and queen, and the fate of the realm will be ours.

And what sort of king would you be?

I will restore the realm to its former glory.

I'll start with the mage council, where we once valued the merit of individuals

and the fate of their birth.

Bold. The nobles won't like that.

I'm not afraid to fight for his rights.

The ancients are on my side.

And if you succeeded, what then?

I would bring teeth to the borderland.

Attribute marrow to those who will use it best.

Builders, farmers, and craftsmen.

Just the nobles who've wasted on beauty, pleasure, and advice.

And when are Reishi brothers and sisters seeing that the realm belongs to them?

Just as much as it belongs to us.

We will all be united in purpose.

You said us?

My desire is that you and I do this.

Together.

Then why wait to be king?

You have enough influence to begin such great things now.

To pry the marrow from my mother's hands.

That would start a war.

In my studies, I have read stories.

Of the ancient ones, raising great monuments with just a single pinch of

The ancients were long gone.

And they took their secrets to the grave.

I read of an object containing the power of the ancients.

Banished to another world.

The skull of Marduk.

Are you kidding me?

You told Bedrick about the skull?

No.

Hadley, yes?

It was I that first put the idea in his head. That's our perfect princess.

Go to Cad's noble intentions at first.

Ah!

Eighty of my best cavalry dead.

Our barons are nothing next to the magic of the Aeshi.

If only my mother had spread a few drums of marrow, the day would be ours.

Never. Peaceful. She stands in the way.

I didn't know you had a healing gift.

You never asked.

Don't focus on these rebellions.

I have good news.

I've discovered the whereabouts of the doll.

It'll fall off land across the return.

Soon I will find the key to take you there.

Aurora, you amaze me.

You truly are just...

Okay, these two are close.

We get it.

Were you in love with him, or was he in love with you when you kissed?

That is not important to the story.

How is that not important?

Ignore him. Go on.

I delved even deeper into the oldest records and learned of an ancient

that would open the way to the other world.

The Voici.

And before I could even think of what to do with this knowledge, Zaya came to me

and warned me of a dark future where Vedrick becomes consumed by the Skull's

power.

And Vedrick was displeased with me.

Why are you even talking to Zaya? Her mind is broken.

Everyone knows that.

Don't let my sister infect you with her madness.

Wait, wait, wait.

Zaya is Vedrick's sister?

Plot twist.

Yeah, it seems like there's a lot you've been keeping from us. Because she's

been telling you only what serves her purpose.

I was simply trying not to confuse them.

But this changes everything.

How can we trust Zaya when her own brother wants us dead?

Half -brother, actually.

But it was Zaya who first saw the darkness in him.

Still doesn't mean we can trust her.

Right? Oh, it is never wise to trust Zaya.

and us staring at the skull.

Time to explain how this thing's going to help us get Flynn back.

I believe it will amplify my power to envision possible futures.

And my brother.

We're doing this to bring Flynn home safe, right?

That is part of the objective, ideally.

Well, that's my only objective. So let's just focus on that part.

Oh.

Hello. I didn't know you had company, Daryl.

Uh, yeah.

It's just a friend.

Uh -huh.

Can I talk with you?

In the other room?

Chill for a minute.

Chill?

Chill. Like, hang out. Don't touch or do anything. I'll be right back.

You are this close to being grounded, Daryl. Just because Flynn has gone AWOL

doesn't mean all the house rules fly out of the window. I mean, who is this girl

in your room?

That is not my...

We're not in a... You're a terrible liar. You better not be sneaking around

behind Brinley's back. No, Mom, it's nothing like that.

Zaya's just trying to help me find Flynn. If she knows something, she needs

tell the police. She's not... She doesn't know anything yet.

Hopefully that'll change soon because... She's, um... Um... A psychic.

A psychic?

You mean like a fortune teller?

But for real, I know it sounds crazy, but...

I'm just trying to find Flynn.

Right now, this is the only lead I've got.

Honey, I'm so sorry. I've been so focused on Flynn that I haven't even

how you're doing. No.

Don't add me to your list of worries.

Honestly, I'm fine.

I'm glad to hear it.

But you're still grounded for sneaking a girl into your room. Well, for the

record, she kind of just barged in.

I'm not helping.

I gotta go. It seems maybe Mitch has an actual lead.

Hey, keep me posted.

I will.

That young lady better be out of here in the next ten minutes.

Can you make it twenty?

She's using a magic skull to amplify her powers, and it could take a minute.

Wow!

You really are a terrible liar. Make it five minutes.

If Xayah warned you about Bedrick, how did he still get a hold of the Void Key

anyway? Yes, Princess, how did he manage to get hold of the Void Key?

Despite my warnings, Bedrick became obsessed with the skull.

The man I admired was slipping away.

Loth, the darkness.

I was desperate to save him.

So I hired Calibor to raid the Ioloid tombs and retrieve the Void Key before

Bedrick could.

I will give you half now and half when I have the voice key.

What's so important about this relic you're after?

It's none of your concern.

Important enough that you would dare to meet me by yourself, in person,

Princess.

No one can ever know what I've asked of you today.

Ever.

I appreciate you putting your utmost trust in me.

I will return with your prize soon, Princess.

Little did I know that Zaya had seen everything and was making her own plans.

The cabin doesn't like small spaces.

There's no air to breathe in this tunnel.

Hey, there's plenty of air.

And I'm sure you don't need to get jumpy.

Almost have it on this one. Yeah, dwarf tunnels are the worst.

Dwarf tunnels are the best.

Dwarves are master tunnelers. What makes you think dwarves here are anything

like the ones you've read about?

Maybe this is where the mythology of dwarves actually came from.

Some previous crossover between our worlds.

Yeah. Okay, whatever.

So we know that Oleg was a dwarf. We know that he had a crown.

Anything else?

Well, King Oleg had two sons, twins, in fact.

But the queen died in childbirth, and both babies were taken from her belly at

the same time. So both had a right to the throne.

And both despised each other for it.

So when Oleg grew old, he decided to let fate choose the next ruler.

Whichever son found the crown first would be king.

So both twins ventured off in search of it.

Neither returned.

And the crown of Oleg was never seen again.

Until today, with any luck, or not.

End of the road.

This map of yours is no good.

Of course.

Now you want to give me credit.

When it's a literal dead end.

It is not my fault you gave me a bad map.

Wait.

Can I borrow that for a second?

If there's a way through it will be this wall

Look

there's another one on this side

Two dwarves. Twin brothers.

The two sons of King Alec.

I'm impressed, right?

What do you think now, Calibor?

I still think it's a dead end.

Who would build a dead end and make all these carvings into it?

Give me that.

Battle the brain.

Anything for the win?

I think we're all gonna die.

Here we go.

Keep your button.

Boom. Flew with the wing.

No, Clint!

You never, ever touched a dwarf's beard. I did. I'm sorry. Are you okay?

That leg is wrecked. Both are shattered.

Can't move.

Doing fine.

Aurora, I have Mero. You can heal him. Yes. And then I owe her for saving me.

No, thank you.

What, so you're just going to lay here and not accept her help?

Doesn't surprise me. He's a stubborn fool.

Oh, God.

I don't need her help. This is crazy. What happened between you two when you

sent him to get the Void Key?

Yeah, I succeeded, obviously.

Succeeded in ruining everything.

Have you found a way yet to the other world?

I'm still searching.

Even if there is such a way, I'm begging you again to reconsider.

Speak to your sister.

Oh, I've already spoken to Zaya.

She's been persuaded to be part of my plan.

What plan?

Zaya will accompany Goran to the other world.

With her ability, she will lead him to the skull.

And Zaya has agreed to this?

You seem nervous, Zora.

Is something wrong?

No. No, I should return to my study to find a way for you. There is no longer

any need for that.

Never trust a thief.

Yes, your friend Calibor sold me the Void Key.

Though it cost me ten times what you were paying her. You have to believe me,

Cedric. I never meant to hurt you. I only wanted to save you. No!

No more lies.

You betrayed me.

And that I cannot abide.

God!

Take her to Darktube.

If you continue down this path, Vedra, it'll be your undoing.

Ask Zaya.

Listen to her.

Unhand me now.

Vedra, no.

Unhand me now.

No. Vedra, get up.

Get up. If I had a dagger, I'd stab you with it.

Low blow, bro.

You mean to sell her out like that?

Oh, please.

She was a spoiled, rich Aishi royal lying to her Aishi husband. How was I to

know that she was good and he was bad?

Seems like the only decision was between gold and more gold.

Easy decision to make.

Makes sense.

Given the context,

Master Thief would go for the money.

You're seriously Team Calibur right now? He totally betrayed Aurora.

Thank you, Oakley. Yeah, I'm full on Team Aurora.

Cavill has no team. This story is long and boring.

Then I will simplify it for you. I trusted this snake and he betrayed me.

That's all there is to know.

If you had trusted me, you would have told me what was at stake.

If I'd have known what you were actually up to, I never would have sold the boy

kids to Frederick.

So you say now.

But we all know the one thing you really care about is getting gold.

Well, Zaya was willing to tell me the truth, and yes, it changed everything.

You've done a terrible thing.

More than once.

But perhaps you could be more specific, young lady.

That money won't do you any good.

What are you after?

Who are you with? Giving that money to your village won't stop it from burning.

How do you know? We don't have much time, and we have plans to make.

Wait, so Zaya told you that your village was going to burn down?

Well, she didn't tell me anyway. And she gave him a tiny scroll.

Come on, guide this track.

He's telling the truth.

Or just part of the truth.

What did the scroll say?

Go to Eldritch Keep for that day of the Midsummer Moon and take the Voiki.

Only Zaya left out one small detail.

That Vedrick would be there slaying an army of resistance fighters.

And of course, she said nothing about the three of you.

No, no, no.

This wasn't the plan.

Where's Zaya?

Did she give you the skull?

What? Give me the boy key.

The van is lost.

It was your first.

He's a cripple.

Zaya does always seem to leave out the bad part.

But it's proof she has everything figured out.

Calibor was meant to steal the Void Key before Vedra could get to it.

You can't expect us to believe that Calibor is the hero of this story.

Not since you've been trying so hard to paint me the villain.

What is your game?

You would never just take orders from Zaya.

So why were you really at Eldred's Keep?

For gold?

Doesn't matter.

Nothing to say, hmm?

You said it yourself.

You don't regret a thing.

Regret?

Fine.

Do you want to know why I listened to Zaya?

Because she swore that if I did everything she asked me to do, that it

save... It would save...

You.

Aurora.

And that too.

Which it did.

Now here we are, me still entangled in this man.

Trying to prick my long, little neck.

And a lot of good it's done me so far.

Oh.

I see.

It's kind of hard not to be Team Calibur right now.

Alrighty. So, how is this supposed to work?

Huh?

Hold this.

I'm uncertain what will happen when I touch the skull.

I'm not normal, even amongst my own people.

Marrow flows throughout my body, and the skull may want that marrow.

Okay, I'm not following any of this.

The skull is evil. It may try to use me, hence the cudgel.

But I'm not hitting you with a bat.

Agreed.

I only meant to hit the skull from my hands.

Oh.

Ready? Not at all.

Hey.

Hey. Hey. Hey. Hey. Hey. Hey. Hey. Hey. Hey.

Well, your text, it sounded like it couldn't wait.

Yeah.

It's easy to show you.

You want to come in?

You want to follow, will you? No.

How you doing? Holding up. How's Daryl?

Daryl's all right. He's a bit shaken up, but we're all just trying to keep it

together, right? Right.

Trying not to go crazy.

Okay.

Wow, this is a lot. Right?

I got my entire sales team calling everyone and anyone looking for the kid.

IT guy got into the neighborhood and doorbell cam network. We're running

security cams, all the cams. We're running facial recognition software to

footage. Is that legal?

Yeah, maybe -ish.

I mean, it doesn't matter.

Forget I asked.

How's your wife handling all this?

Jenny?

She's, yeah, we separated a while ago, but also we're a little bit divorced

So she's glamping across Morocco with her new guy.

She doesn't even know about cash. So yeah, it's just me here alone now.

I guess I'm having a hard time letting go of something.

Sorry, this is none of my business.

Are you okay, Mitch?

Yeah, I'm fine.

I'm fine.

I'm a little bit off, right?

I'm sure I smell bad and I keep ramming them because all these energy drinks and

I haven't slept and whatnot. You know what? No, I'm not okay.

I should shower, right?

Later, maybe.

Well, at least you're doing something. Yeah. Even if...

Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah.

No any leads?

Yeah. Yeah.

What do you think?

I have a guy who had it made up so everybody knows who to... I should make

for Flynn. He could be a part of it.

Okay. How about Jimmy?

Nothing concrete, but there is a person of interest and he keeps showing up over

and over.

The hobo with the sword.

The first time he showed up was two weeks ago.

This is a doorbell cam from a house that was robbed. It was owned by a

historian. He collected ancient artifacts.

Okay, the sheriff said he was just some random nut job, and he had nothing to do

with our kids. The transcripts of the interrogation are right here.

He did say a bunch of crazy stuff, but he definitely saw our kids. It says so

right here. He knows something.

There's a whole something going on, and clearly the police aren't going to do

anything about it.

Okay, the sheriff still has him in custody.

He had.

They let him go. Look.

Did he?

I don't know. Is it a coincidence? It's weird, right?

Who is this guy?

There's literally no record of this guy.

All we know is that he goes by the name Gorin.

The police think our kids ran away.

They are not going to unravel this mystery, Shauna.

Okay. How can I help find this goring?

It's your iPad.

Just a second.

I require the dwelling place of a human, a man, a young man, Daryl of

Griffin lineage.

I'm sorry, we don't give out information to... Is that a servant?

He's still a scoundrel. You should all remember that.

Just to be clear, this doesn't put me in your debt.

I would never want you in my debt.

This changes nothing.

I will never forgive you for that, too.

We are simply working together for the greater good.

Work together for the greater good.

King Oleg had twin sons.

It's like these two murals.

Yes.

That's it.

One for each of them.

It's like... There isn't one secret button.

There's two.

I must look.

Not last.

Where's the leg?

It is near.

Ready? Uh -huh. Three, two, one.

My mouth tastes like my grandmother's ashtray.

Reminds Calvin of home.

What do we do?

What is that?

Rhombitoid extract.

The only known antidote to needle spider venom.

What are you doing?

Swallow it. I can't swallow pills. Okay, just gag on them.

Give me an aspirin.

I should do an exercise.

Intuitive, you must, but do not delay.

Korea.

Oh, man.

This is protein, bro.

Just eat it.

Eat it. Eat it.

Oh,

I'm sorry.

I didn't open up the door. Sorry.

You're the one who found the way through.

She's right.

It was the only way forward.

I must admit, you have a knack for this, son.

I mean, I was just following your lead, so... Enough to high -five, do we dine

or what? Try to be still. The poison spreads through your body with every

you make.

And with any luck, the egg sacs will take effect before the light runs out

spiders eat you.

I'm so glad we spent our precious marrow on returning you to your normal,

unbearable self. Well, just working together for the greater good.

Lynn, Oakley are with me.

You're getting rough.

Waiter. I'll be back.

Wait!

This is the address.

Just please don't hurt me.

Excuse me, sir.

Can I help you?

Sir?

Everything is wrong. Everything goes wrong.

What? What did you see?

There is no path to victory, Daryl.

Vedrick wins.

Always.

What about Flynn?

Same as the rest of us.

Vedrick will use the skull to destroy your world and mine.

And there's nothing you can do to stop it. But we have the skull.

You promised me that you would save Flynn.

I've seen every pathway and they all end the same.

The future leads only to death and destruction.

You can't just give up.

No one knows for sure what anyone's going to do.

We always have a choice.

Well, sometimes there is no choice or way to win.

The future's already written.

Okay. You say we can't change the future?

Tell me this.

Am I going to eat this cookie or not?

Doesn't matter.

Yes, it does.

Right now.

Am I going to eat this Oreo?

Look at the future.

Ant?

You do not eat it. You're right. I wasn't going to.

100%. But you know what?

I'm feeling a little... snacky.

You only made a different choice because I told you the future.

Exactly.

We make our own path.

Don't focus on what's going to happen.

Focus on what we can do about it.

That's impossible.

Maybe there isn't a way.

Or maybe that's what the skull wants you to believe.

Maybe it only wants you to see bad things so that we give up.

I feel it resisting me.

One thing I know is when things get bad, it's hard to see the light at the end

of the tunnel.

But that's when we have to stay strong, fight harder, have faith, and keep

trying no matter what.

Such horrible visions, Daryl.

And find a way for us to change them and give Flynn back.

I believe in you, Zion.

We'll need more of these cookies.

Oh, okay. More foam. Never a good sign.

And here's the other one.

Both brothers dead.

Well, I'll be King Oleg Crown.

We did it!

We actually did it!

Well, now we just have to figure out how to get in there.

Look. His sons made it here alive.

They're so close to the crown.

It looks like they died fighting over it.

See? They didn't come with these axes.

The king put them here.

They each have their own pedestal.

So they each took an axe and went full mortal combat.

Fatality.

That guy probably bled to death trying to get the crown.

But he couldn't lift this gate.

But father would do that to their son.

A ruthless dwarf came, Tiger Father. Give him your hand with this gate.

Three, two, one.

Yeah,

this gate's not gonna budge.

When my father was alive, he preferred my brother Daryl.

Oh, come on. I'm sure that's not true. It's true. They had so much in common.

Football, camping, hiking, fishing. There is no question which one of us

he would have chose to be king.

But he definitely wouldn't have us fight to the death for it.

Again, he's a ruthless dwarf king.

Yeah. But he's a father as well.

Maybe Oleg didn't want his sons to fight. Maybe he wanted them to work

like how we had to push the button at the same time. Except look what was

waiting for them. A pair of axes.

Fairly clear message, don't you think?

Unless... the king put them here for another reason.

Well, I'm pretty sure I know what this is here for.

so many holes it could be keyhole and we can use the act of this giant key

You're both wasting time. I know it's hard to fathom, but sometimes the

strongest win and the weakest lose. It's just the way the world works. They're

twins, evenly matched.

Which is why they both died.

Why did there only have to be one?

Why couldn't they rule together?

Because there's only one crown, that's why.

Yeah, but then there should only be one axe, and... What if these

two axes go together? One key.

Yeah. I knew there was something odd about this design.

This is the key.

Come on.

Say it. You can say whatever you want.

Say it. Come on, say it.

As much as it pains me to say, Flynn for the win.

You've made your mentor really proud today.

Well, I learned from a pro.

But you're still a novice.

And there's one more trap we have to deal with.

Ready?

If anything goes wrong, don't worry.

I'm right here.

Daryl?

Dyer?

You okay?

Come on, talk to me. Hey.

You all right?

My skull.

Hungry for marrow.

Tried to drain it from me.

What'd you see?

I saw it. A cookie moment.

There is one way.

To change the future?

How? We need to send a message to your brother.

What is it?

What is the dame?

I'm finding a trap.

Yes.

Some clever dwarven ingenuity I'm spotting.

I have a plan. Oakley, your bag.

No, why would I give you my bag? You don't have much time. Hurry, just give

to me. Okay.

Yes.

This is perfect.

You're like Indiana Jones.

This didn't work for Indiana Jones.

No! What?

No.

Jimin!

Wait, where are you going?

One final lesson, then.

Don't trust anyone.

Show me how to learn it the hard way.

I don't understand.

What?

Would you look at that.

Two crowns.

Right to get, Flynn.

Seems like the king did believe in working together.

Me? I work alone.

So long, Ray Finers.

Nope.

I don't want to hear it.

Not a word!

I don't understand.

Taro, we need to go.

Now. Go? But what about... No, no, no.

He knows we're here. He's coming.

He who? Who knows? Who's coming?

Gorn.

Hey, you know what, guys?

My mouth.

She's like, my mouth again.

That was mine, though.

Heavens, too.

I think that means it's so smooth again.

Thanks, Jax, for the win.

I know.

Why should I die?
