00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:51,000
I would like to introduce Tyr,

178
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:52,000
from the First Land!

179
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:53,000
[crowd applauding]

180
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:58,000
Then, Lee from, you guessed it,
the Land of Lee!

181
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:01,000
Arrakore from Djinjago!

182
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:05,000
Master Suetonius from the Cloud Kingdom!

183
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,000
Baron Frye, the Pontifex Magicus
Ex Nihilo from Mysterium--

184
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,000
Hold it right there, weirdo--

185
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:11,000
Oh! Uh... my bad. [chuckling awkwardly]

186
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:13,000
I mistook your face for a Loyalist mask.

187
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,000
Uh, that-that sounded worse
than I meant it to sound.

188
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:23,000
Ugh... I'm a Serpentine,
and I totally prejudged a Devonian.

189
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:25,000
anything suspicious.

190
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,000
Don't beat yourselves up.

191
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:28,000
It happens.

192
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:30,000
[Percival] Akita from the Never Kingdoms!

193
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:31,000
[applause]

194
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:34,000
And lastly, but certainly not leastly,

195
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:37,000
Wyldfyre from Ninjago!

196
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:38,000
[crowd applauding]

197
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:40,000
I deserve this!

198
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:47,000
For countless generations,
we all lived separately,

199
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:50,000
most of us never even knowing
each other existed,

200
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:54,000
but a supernatural force
brought us together.

201
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:59,000
No one knows the reason for it,
but here, starting today,

202
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:02,000
we can make the Merge
mean something tremendous!

203
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,000
Thrust together by circumstance...

204
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:06,000
Maybe Operation Mentax isn't gonna happen.

205
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:07,000
Thoughts, Zeatrix?

206
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,000
Zeatrix? Come in, Zeatrix?

207
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:14,000
...but destiny is better shaped
through cooperation...

208
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:19,000
[Sora] <i>Frak, what's the word?</i>

209
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,000
No sign of her,

210
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,000
but no sign of any struggle, either.

211
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:26,000
It's... wait...

212
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:27,000
hold on.

213
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,000
[draft gusting]

214
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,000
Ah, never mind.

215
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:49,000
Those masked goons
couldn't have taken Zeatrix out this way.

216
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:50,000
Everyone would've spotted them.

217
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:54,000
This is an unprecedented time of fear--

218
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:55,000
fear of each other,

219
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:57,000
fear of change.

220
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,000
As you all know,

221
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:02,000
Imperium was recently the center
of an intense battle.

222
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:03,000
Some of your lands...

223
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:04,000
[making static sound]

224
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:07,000
As much as I love
and deserve this recognition,

225
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:08,000
I can't just stand there doing nothing.

226
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:11,000
We need a replacement delegate
so I can get into the action!

227

[Arin] <i>Working on it.</i>

229
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:16,000
Zeatrix isn't answering her comms, but...

230
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:17,000
maybe she still has them.

231
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,000
[Euphrasia] <i>What do you mean, Sora?</i>

232
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:23,000
Maybe I can reverse the signal
and turn it into a homing beacon.

233
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:25,000
Found it!

234

00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:32,000

242
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:46,000
The Merge has given us
a unique opportunity

243
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:51,000
to achieve unprecedented community
by uniting together!

244
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:54,000
What about natural disasters,
like MergeQuakes?

245
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,000
Uniting won't help everyone.

246
00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:58,000
For kingdoms like ours,

247
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:02,000
having to help lesser kingdoms
will just bring us down.

248
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,000
[crowd gasping and murmuring]

249
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:07,000

[Percival] <i>I see how this agreement</i>

00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:42,000
but it is.

263
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:45,000
There will be no more threats
to any of us.

If there is an issue,
the Council of the Merged Lands

we were an advanced realm

I can't believe we blew it again!

359
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:13,000
Wait, where's Sora?

360
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:18,000
You gotta be kidding me.

361
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:23,000
Sora? Sora, can you hear us?

362
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:25,000
Sora, please! Sora, please res--

363
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:27,000
[powering comms off]

364
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,000
[tense music]

365
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:42,000
I'm worried about him.

366
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:45,000
Something's troubling Zilvar.
I can sense it.

367
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,000
This whole journey's
been tough for all of us.

368
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:49,000
The sooner we get to the Abyss
and destroy that Weapon,

369
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:51,000
the better.

370
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:53,000
That thing breeds danger wherever it goes.

371
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:56,000
[internal voice] <i>You must destroy it.</i>

372
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:57,000
<i>It's too powerful and too dangerous.</i>

373
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:02,000
<i>But destroying it could prevent</i>
<i>your people from coming back.</i>

374
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:05,000
<i>Do you even trust that's possible?</i>

375
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:07,000
<i>He was one of your tribe.</i>

376
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:10,000
<i>How could you </i>not <i>trust him?</i>

377
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:13,000
[portal opening]

378
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:19,000
A scion of the tiger tribe?

379
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:21,000
How is that possible?

380
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:23,000
I don't recognize you.

381
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:25,000
You knew me once,

382
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:28,000
and I certainly know you,
Zilvar Slashclaw.

383
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,000
[owl hooting]

384
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:38,000
[Ras] I was a mere cub
when you left our tribe.

385
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:42,000
My stripes were another color
so many years ago,

386
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:46,000
and I changed my name
when my master saved me from certain doom.

387
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:50,000
Back then,
I was known to you as Zeras.

388
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:52,000
Young Zeras?

389
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,000
Is it really you?

390
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:57,000
I go by Ras now,

391
00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,000
and have since that horrific day.

392
00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:02,000
I thought you had died on your trek.

393
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,000
We all did.

394
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:06,000
Either that, or you had abandoned us.

395
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:09,000
I would never abandon our tribe.

396
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:11,000
If I'd known you'd survived,

397
00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:14,000
I would've done anything to find you.

398
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:19,000
Knowing I failed you fills me with shame.

399
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:23,000
You can still
make it up to me and our tribe.

400
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:26,000
I just need you to do a task for me.

401
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:29,000
The Weapon of Desolation was created

402
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:32,000
from the very essence of my master.

403
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:35,000
If that weapon is destroyed,

404
00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:38,000
it will greatly hurt the one I serve.

405
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:40,000
Who is this master

406
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:43,000
that would create such a horrible Weapon?

407
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:45,000
That does not concern you.

408
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:46,000
What does

409
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:50,000
is that the Ninja cannot succeed
in destroying it.

410
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:53,000
I need your help.

411
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:56,000
I'm setting into motion
a series of important events,

412
00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:59,000
and I cannot take the time to focus

413
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:02,000
on this unexpected wrinkle
in my master's plans.

414
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:05,000
Of course I want to help you,

415
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:07,000
the last son of my tribe,

416
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:10,000
but in the wrong hands,

417
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:14,000
that weapon could lead to the obliteration
of all the Merged Lands.

418
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,000
Such fears are short-sighted!

419
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:21,000
My master and I are in the process
of undoing the Merge,

420
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:25,000
and in that process,
we could bring back our tribe.

421
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:28,000
Bring them back? How?

422
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:32,000
By capturing all the Source Dragons,

423
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:35,000
and through controlling their power,

424
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:40,000
we will undo the Merge
and build a new reality...

425
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:44,000
one that will revive our people.

426
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:50,000
No, this plan is evil.

427
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:52,000
Capturing Source Dragons?

428
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,000
Blasphemy!

429
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,000
Think of our tribe!

430
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:57,000
Think of Mei!

431
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,000
Mei died with a pure heart,

432
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:04,000
and if I were to help you
to commit unspeakable acts

433
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:07,000
for a master who clearly
does not respect the Sources?

434
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:12,000
That would be an insult to Mei
and to all our people.

435
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:16,000
You should be ashamed of yourself, Zeras.

436
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:17,000
[growling]

437
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:21,000
You have no right to insult me!

438
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:23,000
I've done everything for our tribe...

439
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:26,000
the tribe you failed to save!

440
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,000
Don't challenge me.

441
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,000
If you won't do it,

442
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:35,000
then I'll be forced
to take down the Ninja myself,

443
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:39,000
after I destroy you
for betraying me and our people!

444
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:42,000
You betray our tribe, not I.

445
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:47,000
[whistling]

446
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:49,000
-[roaring]
-Ah!

447
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:56,000
I will not let you harm the Ninja!

448
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,000
[roaring]

449
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,000
[Jay] Zilvar with the last-minute save.

450
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:07,000
Thanks, buddy.

451
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,000
I knew you were a good egg
the moment I met you.

452
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:10,000
I was not hatched from an egg.

453
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,000
[Jay] Yeah, okay, noted.

454
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:13,000
What made you come after us?

455
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:15,000
I...

456
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:17,000
[internal voice]<i> You must not</i>
<i>destroy the weapon.</i>

457
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:21,000
<i>You heard Zeras.</i>
<i>He can bring your people back.</i>

458
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,000
<i>You cannot tell the Ninja.</i>

459
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:27,000
I had a feeling you might need me.

460
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:30,000
[internal voice] <i>This could be</i>
<i>all you've ever wanted.</i>

461
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:33,000
<i>Your tribe, your family...</i>

462
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:36,000
<i>Yes, but at what cost?</i>

463
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:40,000
We're here.

464
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:42,000
[dramatic music]

465
00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:48,000
[dramatic music]
