[ thunder rumbling ]
SHARAK.
[ shrilling ]
SHARAK.
THE ANCIENT ONE
WHO IMPRISONED YOU IS GONE.
HIS CURSE CAN NOW BE BROKEN
AND YOU WILL BE RELEASED,
MY LOVE.
[ thundering ]
SPIRITS OF THE EARTH,
LAND AND SEA.
TAKE THE IMPRISONED ONE
AND SET HIM FREE.
SPIRITS, I BESEECH YOU.
RESTORE HIM
TO HIS RIGHTFUL PLACE
AND SET HIM FREE.
[ thundering ]
[ shrilling ]
OH, NO.
[ whooshing ]
IN AN AGE WHEN NATURE
AND MAGIC RULED 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 IS ALSO CALLED BEASTMASTER.
[ birds calling ]
[ chickens clucking ]
[ whooshing ]
AHH.
[ whooshing ]
AHH.
AHHH.
[ whooshing ]
AHH.
[ whooshing ]
[ growling ]
Tao:
CARO WOULDN'T SEND FOR US
IF IT WASN'T SERIOUS.
DOES SHE KNOW WHO IT IS?
NO, NO ONE DOES.
[ growling ]
WHAT'S BOTHERING RUH?
HE'S AFRAID.
RUH IS AFRAID?
WHAT'S HE AFRAID OF?
HE DOESN'T KNOW
WHAT IT IS.
JUST THAT
IT'S EVIL.
[ Ruh growling ]
HE DOESN'T WANT US TO GO.
HE SAYS WHATEVER IT IS,
IT'S AHEAD OF US, IN XINCA.
IF RUH'S AFRAID,
NO WONDER CARO NEEDS US.
RUH, WE HAVE TO GO --
WAIT HERE FOR ME.
I'LL COME BACK.
DON'T WORRY.
[ whooshing ]
WHO ARE YOU?
WHAT DO YOU WANT --
LEAVE ME ALONE!
[ screaming ]
[ pounding ]
WE HAVEN'T SEEN
ANY OF ZAD'S KNIGHTS.
OR ANYONE ELSE.
THIS IS MARKET DAY.
THE STREETS SHOULD BE
BRIMMING WITH PEOPLE.
THERE'S NO BLOOD.
WHAT COULD HAVE KILLED HER?
THINK IT WAS ZAD'S KNIGHTS
OR A ROBBER?
THERE'S NOT
A MARK ON HER.
SOMETHING HAD
TO KILL HER.
BRRR!
YOU FELT THAT.
IT'S ALL AROUND THE BODY.
THE LIFE WAS SUCKED
OUT OF THE AIR.
[ screaming ]
THEY DID IT!
WE FOUND HER
LIKE THAT.
SHE WAS ALREADY DEAD.
I DON'T THINK
THEY BELIEVE ME.
YOU'RE MAKING A MISTAKE.
I DON'T WANT TO HURT YOU.
I CAME HERE TO HELP YOU.
THE BEASTMASTER DIDN'T DO THIS!
CARO.
HE WAS STRANGLING HER.
WE CAME HERE
TO HELP.
IT'S TRUE.
THEY'RE FRIGHTENED --
THEY WON'T LISTEN.
Knight:
CLEAR THE STREET --
MAKE WAY!
MAKE WAY!
NEVER THOUGHT I'D BE GLAD
TO SEE ZAD'S KNIGHTS.
LET'S GO, HURRY UP.
GET OUT OF THE WAY!
TEN PEOPLE HAVE DIED SO FAR.
THAT GIRL MAKES 11.
Tao:
WHO'S DOING THIS?
Caro:
I THOUGHT IT WAS ZAD,
USING MURDER
TO KEEP HIS PEOPLE TERRORIZED.
THERE WASN'T
A MARK ON HER.
Caro:
JUST LIKE THE OTHERS.
Tao:
YOU'RE A HEALER
AND AN INTELLECTUAL.
YOU FIND THE TRUTH
BEHIND WHAT OTHERS CALL MAGIC.
WHAT IS KILLING THESE PEOPLE?
Caro:
THERE'S NO EXPLANATION
IN THE ANCIENT TEXT.
WHATEVER THEY SAW
BEFORE THEY DIED,
THEY WERE ALL TERRIFIED.
TAO.
[ squealing ]
KODO AND PODO ARE FRIGHTENED.
THEY SENSE SOMETHING.
[ whooshing ]
IT'S CLOSE.
I LIVE
BY THE WELL.
I'LL MEET YOU
THERE.
Dar:
WHATEVER IS DOING THIS KILLING
WILL STRIKE AGAIN.
I WANT TO CATCH IT.
IF IT DOESN'T CATCH YOU.
LET'S STICK TOGETHER.
I'LL BE ALL RIGHT.
KODO AND PODO
WILL WATCH MY BACK.
ANOTHER BODY!
YES, SIRE, A YOUNG WOMAN.
MAYBE IT WAS SOMETHING
SHE ATE.
PEOPLE DIE ALL THE TIME.
I SHOULD KNOW.
I KILL MOST OF THEM.
PEOPLE BELIEVE IT'S SORCERY --
THEY WANT YOU TO DO SOMETHING.
FINE --
ARREST SOMEONE.
WHO?
THE SORCERESS.
NOT THE SORCERESS!
THE PEOPLE WANT A SCAPEGOAT.
SOMEONE THEY CAN SEE
TIED TO FOUR WILD HORSES
AND TORN LIMB FROM LIMB.
THAT'S WHAT I'M GOING
TO GIVE THEM.
ANY IDEA FOR A VOLUNTEER,
BOLAK?
THE BEASTMASTER WAS SEEN
NEAR THE DEAD WOMAN'S BODY.
[ chuckling ]
THE BEASTMASTER WAS HERE.
DON'T TELL ME HE ESCAPED.
HE WAS GONE WHEN WE GOT THERE.
FIND HIM
AND BRING HIM BACK HERE.
I'LL FEED HIM TO THE CROWD
INSTEAD OF YOU -- OUT!
[ heels clicking ]
SORCERESS!
SHOW YOURSELF.
WHERE ARE YOU?
YOU DON'T HAVE TO SHOUT.
WHY SHOULDN'T I SHOUT?
DEAD BODIES ARE PILING UP
ALL OVER MY CITY
AND NOT A MARK ON THEM.
HMM, MAYBE IT WAS
SOMETHING THEY ATE.
[ whooshing ]
SELF-CONTROL WAS NEVER
YOUR STRONG POINT.
WHAT GOOD IS IT BEING KING,
IF ALL MY SUBJECTS ARE DEAD?
HMM, YOU HAVE A POINT,
BUT IT'S REALLY
NONE OF MY CONCERN.
OH, NO?
WELL,
PEOPLE SUSPECT SORCERY.
THEY WONDER IF YOU'VE HAD
A HAND IN THIS.
THAT'S RIDICULOUS.
DID YOU?
OF COURSE NOT.
OR YOU COULD FIND OUT
WHO DID THIS.
HMM.
THE LIVES OF MORTALS
DON'T CONCERN ME.
I CAN THINK OF ONE
WHO MIGHT.
THE BEASTMASTER'S IN XINCA.
I DON'T BELIEVE
IN COINCIDENCE.
DON'T BE FOOLISH.
HE NEVER KILLS
UNLESS HE'S FORCED TO.
PEOPLE CHANGE, PEOPLE GROW.
THERE MUST BE A REASON,
AND I WANT TO KNOW WHAT IT IS.
WHY, KING ZAD.
YOU'RE NOT FRIGHTENED,
ARE YOU?
JUST FIND OUT
WHO IS BEHIND THIS.
[ whooshing ]
NO...
IT COULDN'T BE.
Caro:
I'M GLAD YOU CAME.
WE'RE BOTH EIRONS --
WE BOTH STUDIED THE OLD TEXTS.
I WOULD HELP YOU
ANY TIME YOU NEEDED IT.
I WISH I HAD MORE
TO TELL YOU.
IT'S LIKE ONE DAY
IT FELL FROM THE SKY.
OR FROM BENEATH
OUR FEET.
BALMAGESH.
EXCUSE ME?
YOU REMEMBER THE LEGEND.
YOU TOLD ME YOUR AUNT SHANDRA
USED TO TELL YOU THE STORY.
SHE WAS MORE
LIKE MY COUSIN--
TAO, BALMAGESH.
THE CITY
THAT WAS HERE
BEFORE XINCA.
KING NOLOS
THE TERRIBLE.
EVIL INCARNATE.
HE'D SLAUGHTER HUNDREDS
OF PEOPLE FOR NO REASON.
HUNTED THEM FOR SPORT.
FINALLY, A GREAT EIRON SAGE
LED A REBELLION.
THE PEOPLE TORE KING NOLOS
INTO A THOUSAND PIECES.
BURIED HIM IN
A SECRET CHAMBER
UNDERNEATH
THE PALACE.
DO YOU RECALL THE CURSE
OF KING NOLOS?
YEAH -- WHEN THERE WAS
ENOUGH EVIL IN THE WORLD,
HIS SPIRIT WOULD BE AWAKENED
BY A MAGIC SPELL,
RETURN TO THE REALM OF THE
LIVING AND WREAK ITS REVENGE.
AND HUNT DOWN THE ONE
WHO HAD AWAKENED IT.
WE SHOULD TELL THIS TO DAR.
HE SAID TO WAIT FOR HIM.
YOU WAIT HERE --
I'LL GO ON AHEAD.
ALONE?
WITH THE KILLER OUT THERE?
WE'LL GO TOGETHER.
[ whooshing ]
[ shrilling ]
THANKS, SHARAK.
KEEP LOOKING.
[ shrilling ]
COME ON!
[ whooshing ]
LET'S GO!
[ shrilling ]
[ screaming ]
WHAT IS IT?
[ squealing ]
DON'T TRY TO SNEAK UP ON ME.
YOU SEEM TENSE.
EVERYONE SEEMS
A BIT TENSE RIGHT NOW.
THEY HAVE GOOD REASON TO BE.
SOMETHING IS KILLING
INNOCENT PEOPLE IN XINCA.
YES, THE KILLINGS.
THAT'S ALL ANYONE
EVER TALKS ABOUT THESE DAYS.
HOW IS SHARAK?
WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
DOES HE SEEM
DIFFERENT?
CHANGED
IN ANY WAY?
HE'S WORRIED.
HE SENSED SOMETHING EVIL.
THAT'S ALL?
COULD YOU TELL ME
WHERE IT'S COMING FROM?
WHY DOES EVERYONE
THINK I KNOW?
DO YOU?
NO --
IF YOUR FRIENDS
KNOW SO MUCH,
ASK THEM.
I DID.
THEY'RE SENSING
THE SAME DANGER.
THERE'S SOMETHING
IT WANTS TO KILL.
I CAN DO MANY THINGS,
BUT I CANNOT CONJURE EVIL.
[ shrilling ]
IT'S HAPPENING AGAIN.
[ whooshing ]
[ screaming ]
[ screaming ]
TWO MORE.
WE HAVE TO STOP THIS.
THERE'S THE KILLERS!
LET'S GO.
ARGH!
[ whooshing ]
[ screaming ]
DAR, NO!
[ whooshing ]
TAO, NO!
DAR MIGHT NEED
OUR HELP.
SOMETHING'S COMING.
DAR, ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?
YEAH.
WHAT HAPPENED
TO THE KNIGHTS?
THEY TRIED
TO RUN FROM IT.
JUST LIKE ALL THE OTHERS.
YEAH.
I WANT SLYTHIUS.
GET ME SLYTHIUS!
HE'S NOT HERE
OR ANYWHERE IN THE KINGDOM.
I NEVER GAVE HIM
PERMISSION TO GO.
DOES A RAT ASK PERMISSION
TO LEAVE A SINKING SHIP?
ARGH.
MAYBE I CAN HELP YOU.
YOU KNOW WHO THE KILLER IS?
YES...
AND NO.
I THINK IT'S A SPIRIT.
OR A GHOST.
ANYWAY, IT'S SOMETHING
THAT'S NOT LIVING.
AT LEAST
THAT'S WHAT ATTACKED YOUR MEN
AND THE BEASTMASTER.
SO HE'S DEAD?
HE'S VERY
MUCH ALIVE.
AND MY KNIGHTS?
THEY'RE DEAD.
WHAT?
ALL OF THEM?
NOT THE BEASTMASTER.
YOU'RE PROTECTING HIM.
NOT ME.
THEN WHY WASN'T HE KILLED TOO?
HE DIDN'T RUN FROM IT,
LIKE YOUR MEN DID.
PERHAPS
HIS COURAGE PROTECTS HIM.
Angry man:
WHERE'S THE SORCERESS?
[ clamouring ]
I THINK YOU HAD SOMETHING TO DO
WITH THE KILLINGS.
ME, WHY?
OH, HA, HA -- IT ONLY STARTED
AFTER YOUR ARRIVAL.
HOW DO THEY EVEN KNOW
I'M HERE?
YOU CAN'T EXPECT PALACE STAFF
TO KEEP A SECRET.
IT'S HARD TO FIND
GOOD HELP THESE DAYS.
AREN'T YOU GOING TO FAVOUR THEM
WITH A GLANCE?
I'LL FAVOUR THEM
WITH MORE THAN THAT.
[ Zad chuckling ]
THIS IS SOMETHING
I MUST SEE.
[ shouting ]
[ silence ]
YOU'RE THEIR KING.
CAN'T YOU DO SOMETHING
WITH THIS RABBLE?
SHE'S EVIL!
[ shouting ]
EITHER YOU STOP THEM
OR I WILL.
PEOPLE OF XINCA.
QUIET!
SORCERESS HAS NOTHING TO DO
WITH THESE KILLINGS.
BUT I KNOW WHO DOES.
A CREATURE FROM THE FOREST,
UNCIVILIZED, UNNATURAL.
AND HE'S AMONGST US,
RIGHT NOW.
WHO?
WHO?
DO TELL US!
THE ONE YOU SEEK...
IS THE BEASTMASTER!
BEASTMASTER!
BEASTMASTER?
BEASTMASTER?
[ clamouring ]
GO, FIND HIM!
BRING HIM BACK TO ME.
LET ZAD, YOUR KING, BE
THE INSTRUMENT OF YOUR REVENGE!
[ clamouring ]
KING NOLOS,
IT HAS TO BE.
HE'S RETURNED.
CAN HE
BE STOPPED?
WE MUST DESTROY
HIS REMAINS.
WE HAVE TO FIND
THE TOMB.
TAO'S AUNT SAID
THERE WAS A GATE
LEADING TO THE
BURIAL CHAMBER.
MY AUNT SAID MANY THINGS
THAT WEREN'T TRUE.
CALLED IT THE
GATE OF DARKNESS.
OR THE TUNNEL OF DESPAIR.
IT NEVER SAW
THE LIGHT OF DAY.
IT WOULD BE
ON THE NORTH WALL.
IT WOULDN'T SEE
THE LIGHT OF DAY.
THERE HE IS --
GET HIM.
HE'S THE ONE.
FIND THE GATE --
I'LL SEE YOU LATER.
GO.
I KNOW YOU'RE AFRAID.
YOU HAVE EVERY
REASON TO BE.
GIVE IT TO HIM!
[ grunting ]
THERE'S BEEN ENOUGH KILLING
IN XINCA.
IT HAS TO STOP, NOW.
GET HIM!
[ clamouring ]
YOU'D BETTER BE RIGHT
ABOUT THE BEASTMASTER
OR YOU MIGHT AS WELL FALL
ON YOUR OWN SWORDS.
SAVE ME THE TROUBLE.
THE MOB HAS HIM
CORNERED
IN THE NORTHERN
SECTOR.
THAT'S NOT A MOB.
THOSE ARE MY LOYAL SUBJECTS.
ASSEMBLE MORE MEN.
MAKE SURE HE DOESN'T ESCAPE.
I'LL HANDLE THIS PERSONALLY.
YES, SIRE.
[ shouting ]
HE'S
ON THE WALL!
CUT HIM OFF.
HE'S UP THERE!
CUT HIM OFF!
THERE HE IS, GET HIM!
THIS WAY!
REMEMBER,
I DON'T WANT HIM DEAD,
JUST BADLY HURT.
LET'S NOT SPILL MORE BLOOD
THAN WE HAVE TO.
TELL YOUR MEN
TO DROP THEIR WEAPONS.
YOU ARROGANT PUP --
TAKE HIM.
[ grunting ]
TAKE HIM!
[ whooshing ]
[ screaming ]
DAMN YOU!
STAND UP AND FIGHT!
WHAT'S THE MATTER --
FIGHT.
WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU?
[ whooshing ]
[ moaning ]
BEASTMASTER.
I NEED YOUR HELP.
YOU WANT MY HELP?
I DON'T LIKE IT EITHER,
BUT I DON'T HAVE ANY CHOICE.
THESE ARE MY BEST KNIGHTS.
IT'S KILLING EVERYONE
BUT YOU.
WHY?
IT FEEDS ON FEAR.
YOU AND I ARE ALIVE
'CAUSE WE STOOD OUR GROUND.
IMAGINE THAT.
ME AND THE BEASTMASTER.
BROTHERS UNDER THE SKIN.
I WOULDN'T GO THAT FAR, ZAD.
WELL,
WHAT DO YOU SAY?
YOU'RE EVERYTHING
I FIGHT AGAINST.
THE WORST OF HUMAN NATURE.
YOU WON'T TURN YOUR BACK
WHILE INNOCENT PEOPLE
ARE MURDERED.
I'LL HELP YOU.
DO I HAVE YOUR WORD?
YOU HAVE MY WORD.
WE'VE SEARCHED
ALL OVER THIS NORTH WALL.
STILL NO SIGN OF ANY GATE.
IT MUST BE HERE
SOMEWHERE.
YOU HAVE THAT MUCH FAITH
IN THE OLD LEGEND?
I HAVE FAITH
IN YOUR AUNT.
HMM, ALL RIGHT --
SHE SAID THE SUN
WOULD SHINE UPON THE GATE
ONE SPECIAL DAY EVERY YEAR.
COULD BE MONTHS
FROM NOW.
HMM.
I HAVE A CHART --
IT FOLLOWS THE SUN'S MOVEMENTS.
I'VE NOTICED THAT IT SETS
IN A DIFFERENT PLACE
EVERY DAY
AND ITS RAYS FOLLOW
A CERTAIN PATH
LIKE THIS.
CARO.
XINCA WAS BUILT ON TOP
OF BALMAGESH.
THE GATE
MUST BE UNDERNEATH.
[ groaning ]
[ exhaling ]
TAO!
OW!
I DON'T BELIEVE IT.
OHH!
AHHH!
ARE YOU OKAY?
YEAH.
Caro:
KING NOLOS' PALACE.
IT COULD BE.
IT'S CERTAINLY OLDER
THAN XINCA.
WHICH WAY TO HIS TOMB?
THIS WAY.
OKAY.
[ whooshing ]
DID YOU HEAR
THAT?
RIGHT BEHIND US.
WE CAN'T GO BACK.
DAR SAID
IT FEEDS ON FEAR.
AS LONG AS WE'RE NOT AFRAID,
WE'RE FINE.
[ whooshing ]
TAO.
YEAH?
YOU THINK KING NOLOS WOULD JUST
LET US DESTROY HIS REMAINS?
I THINK I'M AFRAID.
[ whooshing ]
NOLOS THE TERRIBLE,
BALMAGESH?
ALL THIS RIGHT UNDERNEATH XINCA?
Sorceress:
THE ANCIENT ONE WAS IMPRESSED
WITH NOLOS' CRUELTY.
WHY HAS
HE COME BACK?
BECAUSE THERE'S SO MUCH EVIL
IN XINCA.
WHAT EVIL?
THERE'S NO EVIL HERE.
THERE'S YOU.
I RULE WITH AN IRON FIST.
PEOPLE NEED THAT.
Dar:
NOLOS PROBABLY SAID
THE SAME THING.
ACCORDING TO YOUR LEGEND,
SOMETHING HAD TO AWAKEN IT.
OR SOMEONE.
WHY ARE YOU BOTH LOOKING AT ME?
WHO ELSE HERE
CAN CAST A SPELL?
WHO ELSE
CAN RAISE THE DEAD?
OH, NO, NOT ME.
NOT EVEN THE ANCIENT ONE
COULD RAISE THE DEAD.
YOU SAID THAT NOLOS WAS TORN
INTO A THOUSAND PIECES.
MAYBE HIS SOUL
NEVER DIED.
MAYBE YOU DID SOMETHING
TO AWAKEN IT.
Dar:
MAYBE YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW
YOU DID IT.
MAYBE SHE DOES --
SHE'S TRIED TO DESTROY ME.
DON'T FLATTER YOURSELF --
WHY WOULD I BOTHER?
TO HELP HIM
STEAL MY KINGDOM!
MAYBE I SHOULD CUT YOU
INTO A THOUSAND PIECES.
ARE SURE YOU WOULDN'T BE AFRAID
IF YOU HAD TO FACE NOLOS?
Sorceress:
BECAUSE
IF YOU WERE AFRAID,
NOLOS WOULD DESTROY YOU.
WELL, IF YOU BOYS ARE GOING
TO SURVIVE,
IT LOOKS LIKE YOU'RE GOING
TO HAVE TO WORK TOGETHER.
[ growling ]
[ whooshing ]
IT'S GETTING COLDER.
YEAH.
LISTEN.
[ whooshing ]
DON'T BE AFRAID.
[ whooshing ]
[ squealing ]
WHAT ARE THEY
DOING?
TRYING TO FIND
TAO'S SCENT.
Dar:
THEY FOUND IT.
NOLOS' TOMB
IS DOWN THERE?
SO ARE TAO AND CARO.
WELL,
AFTER YOU.
WOMAN, BRING ME FIRE!
[ screaming ]
UGH.
SMOOTH.
TAO?
CARO?
THEY'RE PROBABLY DEAD.
Dar:
NO.
KODO AND PODO SAID
THEY'VE GONE THIS WAY.
YOU EXPECT ME
TO TRUST MY LIFE
TO A PAIR
OF SMELLY RATS?
FERRETS.
WHAT?
THEY'RE FERRETS.
WAIT, WAIT!
I'M COMING.
[ whooshing ]
IT'S AFTER US.
RUN!
GO!
[ panting ]
IS IT GONE?
I THINK SO.
TAO!
KING NOLOS' TOMB.
THIS IS ANCIENT EIRON.
IT'LL TAKE SOME TIME TO READ.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
WE MUST DESTROY
HIS REMAINS.
AHHH!
[ rattling ]
I DON'T THINK HE LIKES EIRONS.
IT'S COMING.
WHATEVER YOU DO,
DON'T BE AFRAID.
NOTHING --
IT'S EMPTY.
TAO?
CARO?
SO, THIS IS NOLOS' TOMB.
TAO'S BAG.
THEY'VE BEEN HERE.
THEN THEY'RE DEAD.
IF THEY'VE GONE
THROUGH THAT DOOR,
THEY'D HAVE TO PASS US.
FORGET THEM --
WE'RE HERE TO FIGHT NOLOS.
WAIT.
THAT'S WHERE THE EVIL CAME IN.
OR HOW TAO
AND CARO GOT OUT.
HERE.
WHAT
ARE YOU DOING?
FINDING
MY FRIENDS.
WE HAD A DEAL.
WE STILL DO.
UGH!
I'M NOT GOING TO DIE
LIKE SOME RAT IN A HOLE.
CARO?
NOTHING TO BE AFRAID OF,
JUST EVIL INCARNATE.
[ squealing ]
OHH!
SORRY, UH, KODO?
WHERE'S DAR?
WHAT AM I DOING --
THAT'S RIDICULOUS.
THAT MIGHT WORK.
WHERE IS HE?
RIGHT HERE.
AHH!
[ chuckling ]
SORRY.
I THOUGHT YOU WERE NOLOS.
I THOUGHT
YOU MIGHT NEED THIS.
THANK YOU.
WHERE'S CARO?
WE CLIMBED UP INSIDE THE CHAMBER
AND THE TORCH WENT OUT.
WE WERE SEPARATED
AND, UH...
I DON'T KNOW.
WE'LL FIND HER
AND GET BACK TO ZAD.
ZAD'S DOWN HERE?
[ panting ]
ALL RIGHT, NOLOS.
MEET KING ZAD!
AHH!
WHO THE HELL ARE YOU?
CARO --
I'M A HEALER.
WHERE'S NOLOS?
HE'S COMING.
AHHH!
WHERE --
I CAN'T SEE HIM.
LISTEN.
[ whooshing ]
AHHH!
[ chuckling ]
I'M NOT AFRAID.
YOU WILL BE.
NONSENSE.
YOU WILL FEEL HIS HATE,
HIS EVIL.
YOU'LL BE AFRAID.
YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO HELP IT.
[ whooshing ]
MAYBE YOU'RE RIGHT.
FEED ON THAT.
[ whooshing ]
CARO?
[ whooshing ]
WHAT IS IT?
THE COLD --
RIGHT IN THIS VERY SPOT.
FEEL IT?
YEAH.
NOLOS HAS
BEEN HERE.
CARO!
SHE'S STILL BREATHING.
IS SHE HURT?
SHE'S FINE.
TAO.
I WAS TRYING
TO FIND YOU...
BUT FOUND ZAD
INSTEAD.
HE LEFT ME
FOR NOLOS.
NOLOS SPARED YOU --
WHY?
I DON'T KNOW.
I FELT
A TERRIBLE COLD.
HE WASN'T INTERESTED --
YOU WERE UNCONSCIOUS.
YOU WEREN'T AFRAID.
ZAD SAVED YOUR LIFE.
HE DIDN'T MEAN TO --
LET'S GET OUT.
WHERE ARE YOU GOING?
FIND NOLOS --
TAKE THE TORCH.
HOW WILL YOU FIND HIM?
JUST GO.
WHAT ARE YOU
DOING HERE?
SAME THING AS YOU.
LOOKING FOR A WAY
TO STOP HIM.
WHY DO YOU CARE?
ACCORDING TO THIS, HE'LL COME
LOOKING FOR HIS SAVIOUR.
YOU HAD SOMETHING TO DO
WITH THIS AFTER ALL.
I MIGHT HAVE.
I KNEW IT.
SHE DID SUMMON
KING NOLOS.
I DIDN'T MEAN TO.
WHAT WERE YOU TRYING TO DO?
I WANTED TO CHANGE SHARAK
BACK INTO A MAN.
INSTEAD I FREED NOLOS,
AND NOW I MAY HAVE--
CAN YOU SEND
HIM BACK?
NO.
IT SAYS HE MUST BE KILLED
IN BATTLE.
YOU CAN'T FIGHT A SPIRIT.
UNLESS HE HAS A BODY.
YOU THINK HE'LL TURN INTO FLESH
FOR US TO FIGHT HIM?
NO, BUT YOU CAN.
IT IS POSSIBLE.
HE WAS ONCE FLESH.
A TRANSFORMATION SPELL
MIGHT WORK.
YOU REALLY THINK
WE OUGHT TO DO THIS?
IT'S THE ONLY CHANCE WE HAVE.
TRY AND GET IT RIGHT THIS TIME.
SPIRITS OF THE EARTH,
LAND AND SEA,
FIND THE ONE
THAT WAS SET FREE.
GIVE THIS SPECTRE FLESH,
SO THAT IT MAY BE CALLED
TO ACCOUNT FOR ITSELF.
[ roaring ]
HE'S BACK.
GOOD LUCK.
HEAR IT.
[ roaring ]
[ laughing ]
ZAD,
YOU GAVE ME YOUR WORD.
YOU GAVE ME YOUR WORD TOO.
I'M JUST SEEING
THAT YOU STICK TO IT.
'BYE, BEASTMASTER.
[ roaring ]
I'VE WAITED
A THOUSAND YEARS.
I HOPE YOU'RE WORTHY.
FIND OUT.
[ roaring ]
[ grunting ]
[ laughing ]
[ yelling ]
[ screaming ]
YOU LEFT DAR
TO FACE NOLOS.
WHAT COULD I DO?
HE INSISTED.
IT'S NOT MY FAULT
IF HE WANTED TO GO IT ALONE.
I APPRECIATE YOUR CONCERN.
YOU WON?
NOLOS IS DEAD.
WE'RE ALL FREE TO LEAVE.
ARE YOU SURE HE'S DEAD?
HOW DO YOU KNOW
HE WON'T RETURN?
YOU KNOW WHAT HE FEEDS ON.
IF YOU WANT TO MAKE SURE,
END THE FEAR
AND THE SUFFERING
IN XINCA.
NO.
I'LL SEAL UP
THE CATACOMBS.
DESTROY THE FOUNDATIONS
OF NOLOS' PALACE.
THERE'LL BE
NOTHING LEFT.
YOU'LL NEVER LEARN.
I'LL LET YOU WALK AWAY
THIS TIME, BEASTMASTER.
DON'T YOU EXPECT THIS MERCY
AGAIN.
YOU'RE WELCOME.
[ growling ]
I KNOW YOU WANT TO GO, RUH.
JUST GIVE TAO A MOMENT.
[ growling ]
COME WITH US.
TAO.
YOU KNOW I CAN'T.
AS LONG AS ZAD IS KING,
PEOPLE IN XINCA WILL SUFFER.
THEY NEED A GOOD HEALER.
I COULD USE YOUR HELP HERE.
DAR NEEDS ME.
I KNOW.
BUT ONE DAY,
WE'LL BE FREE...
TO FOLLOW OUR DESTINY.
[ whooshing ]
[ growling ]
I SEE MY SPELL
WORKED OUT PERFECTLY.
I DIDN'T MEAN TO CAUSE
ALL THIS TROUBLE.
I JUST WANTED
TO SET SHARAK FREE.
MAYBE SOME THINGS
AREN'T MEANT TO BE.
BUT WE DON'T KNOW THAT.
THERE'S ONLY ONE WAY
TO FIND OUT.
[ shrilling ]
[ twittering ]
YOU'RE NOT GOING TO GIVE UP
THAT EASILY, ARE YOU?
TELL ME SOMETHING.
WOULD YOU?
NO.
[ twittering ]
[ growling ]
ALL RIGHT, RUH,
LET'S GO.
CLOSED CAPTIONS PRODUCED BY
ALLIANCE ATLANTIS BROADCASTING
SHARAK.
[ shrilling ]
SHARAK.
THE ANCIENT ONE
WHO IMPRISONED YOU IS GONE.
HIS CURSE CAN NOW BE BROKEN
AND YOU WILL BE RELEASED,
MY LOVE.
[ thundering ]
SPIRITS OF THE EARTH,
LAND AND SEA.
TAKE THE IMPRISONED ONE
AND SET HIM FREE.
SPIRITS, I BESEECH YOU.
RESTORE HIM
TO HIS RIGHTFUL PLACE
AND SET HIM FREE.
[ thundering ]
[ shrilling ]
OH, NO.
[ whooshing ]
IN AN AGE WHEN NATURE
AND MAGIC RULED 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 IS ALSO CALLED BEASTMASTER.
[ birds calling ]
[ chickens clucking ]
[ whooshing ]
AHH.
[ whooshing ]
AHH.
AHHH.
[ whooshing ]
AHH.
[ whooshing ]
[ growling ]
Tao:
CARO WOULDN'T SEND FOR US
IF IT WASN'T SERIOUS.
DOES SHE KNOW WHO IT IS?
NO, NO ONE DOES.
[ growling ]
WHAT'S BOTHERING RUH?
HE'S AFRAID.
RUH IS AFRAID?
WHAT'S HE AFRAID OF?
HE DOESN'T KNOW
WHAT IT IS.
JUST THAT
IT'S EVIL.
[ Ruh growling ]
HE DOESN'T WANT US TO GO.
HE SAYS WHATEVER IT IS,
IT'S AHEAD OF US, IN XINCA.
IF RUH'S AFRAID,
NO WONDER CARO NEEDS US.
RUH, WE HAVE TO GO --
WAIT HERE FOR ME.
I'LL COME BACK.
DON'T WORRY.
[ whooshing ]
WHO ARE YOU?
WHAT DO YOU WANT --
LEAVE ME ALONE!
[ screaming ]
[ pounding ]
WE HAVEN'T SEEN
ANY OF ZAD'S KNIGHTS.
OR ANYONE ELSE.
THIS IS MARKET DAY.
THE STREETS SHOULD BE
BRIMMING WITH PEOPLE.
THERE'S NO BLOOD.
WHAT COULD HAVE KILLED HER?
THINK IT WAS ZAD'S KNIGHTS
OR A ROBBER?
THERE'S NOT
A MARK ON HER.
SOMETHING HAD
TO KILL HER.
BRRR!
YOU FELT THAT.
IT'S ALL AROUND THE BODY.
THE LIFE WAS SUCKED
OUT OF THE AIR.
[ screaming ]
THEY DID IT!
WE FOUND HER
LIKE THAT.
SHE WAS ALREADY DEAD.
I DON'T THINK
THEY BELIEVE ME.
YOU'RE MAKING A MISTAKE.
I DON'T WANT TO HURT YOU.
I CAME HERE TO HELP YOU.
THE BEASTMASTER DIDN'T DO THIS!
CARO.
HE WAS STRANGLING HER.
WE CAME HERE
TO HELP.
IT'S TRUE.
THEY'RE FRIGHTENED --
THEY WON'T LISTEN.
Knight:
CLEAR THE STREET --
MAKE WAY!
MAKE WAY!
NEVER THOUGHT I'D BE GLAD
TO SEE ZAD'S KNIGHTS.
LET'S GO, HURRY UP.
GET OUT OF THE WAY!
TEN PEOPLE HAVE DIED SO FAR.
THAT GIRL MAKES 11.
Tao:
WHO'S DOING THIS?
Caro:
I THOUGHT IT WAS ZAD,
USING MURDER
TO KEEP HIS PEOPLE TERRORIZED.
THERE WASN'T
A MARK ON HER.
Caro:
JUST LIKE THE OTHERS.
Tao:
YOU'RE A HEALER
AND AN INTELLECTUAL.
YOU FIND THE TRUTH
BEHIND WHAT OTHERS CALL MAGIC.
WHAT IS KILLING THESE PEOPLE?
Caro:
THERE'S NO EXPLANATION
IN THE ANCIENT TEXT.
WHATEVER THEY SAW
BEFORE THEY DIED,
THEY WERE ALL TERRIFIED.
TAO.
[ squealing ]
KODO AND PODO ARE FRIGHTENED.
THEY SENSE SOMETHING.
[ whooshing ]
IT'S CLOSE.
I LIVE
BY THE WELL.
I'LL MEET YOU
THERE.
Dar:
WHATEVER IS DOING THIS KILLING
WILL STRIKE AGAIN.
I WANT TO CATCH IT.
IF IT DOESN'T CATCH YOU.
LET'S STICK TOGETHER.
I'LL BE ALL RIGHT.
KODO AND PODO
WILL WATCH MY BACK.
ANOTHER BODY!
YES, SIRE, A YOUNG WOMAN.
MAYBE IT WAS SOMETHING
SHE ATE.
PEOPLE DIE ALL THE TIME.
I SHOULD KNOW.
I KILL MOST OF THEM.
PEOPLE BELIEVE IT'S SORCERY --
THEY WANT YOU TO DO SOMETHING.
FINE --
ARREST SOMEONE.
WHO?
THE SORCERESS.
NOT THE SORCERESS!
THE PEOPLE WANT A SCAPEGOAT.
SOMEONE THEY CAN SEE
TIED TO FOUR WILD HORSES
AND TORN LIMB FROM LIMB.
THAT'S WHAT I'M GOING
TO GIVE THEM.
ANY IDEA FOR A VOLUNTEER,
BOLAK?
THE BEASTMASTER WAS SEEN
NEAR THE DEAD WOMAN'S BODY.
[ chuckling ]
THE BEASTMASTER WAS HERE.
DON'T TELL ME HE ESCAPED.
HE WAS GONE WHEN WE GOT THERE.
FIND HIM
AND BRING HIM BACK HERE.
I'LL FEED HIM TO THE CROWD
INSTEAD OF YOU -- OUT!
[ heels clicking ]
SORCERESS!
SHOW YOURSELF.
WHERE ARE YOU?
YOU DON'T HAVE TO SHOUT.
WHY SHOULDN'T I SHOUT?
DEAD BODIES ARE PILING UP
ALL OVER MY CITY
AND NOT A MARK ON THEM.
HMM, MAYBE IT WAS
SOMETHING THEY ATE.
[ whooshing ]
SELF-CONTROL WAS NEVER
YOUR STRONG POINT.
WHAT GOOD IS IT BEING KING,
IF ALL MY SUBJECTS ARE DEAD?
HMM, YOU HAVE A POINT,
BUT IT'S REALLY
NONE OF MY CONCERN.
OH, NO?
WELL,
PEOPLE SUSPECT SORCERY.
THEY WONDER IF YOU'VE HAD
A HAND IN THIS.
THAT'S RIDICULOUS.
DID YOU?
OF COURSE NOT.
OR YOU COULD FIND OUT
WHO DID THIS.
HMM.
THE LIVES OF MORTALS
DON'T CONCERN ME.
I CAN THINK OF ONE
WHO MIGHT.
THE BEASTMASTER'S IN XINCA.
I DON'T BELIEVE
IN COINCIDENCE.
DON'T BE FOOLISH.
HE NEVER KILLS
UNLESS HE'S FORCED TO.
PEOPLE CHANGE, PEOPLE GROW.
THERE MUST BE A REASON,
AND I WANT TO KNOW WHAT IT IS.
WHY, KING ZAD.
YOU'RE NOT FRIGHTENED,
ARE YOU?
JUST FIND OUT
WHO IS BEHIND THIS.
[ whooshing ]
NO...
IT COULDN'T BE.
Caro:
I'M GLAD YOU CAME.
WE'RE BOTH EIRONS --
WE BOTH STUDIED THE OLD TEXTS.
I WOULD HELP YOU
ANY TIME YOU NEEDED IT.
I WISH I HAD MORE
TO TELL YOU.
IT'S LIKE ONE DAY
IT FELL FROM THE SKY.
OR FROM BENEATH
OUR FEET.
BALMAGESH.
EXCUSE ME?
YOU REMEMBER THE LEGEND.
YOU TOLD ME YOUR AUNT SHANDRA
USED TO TELL YOU THE STORY.
SHE WAS MORE
LIKE MY COUSIN--
TAO, BALMAGESH.
THE CITY
THAT WAS HERE
BEFORE XINCA.
KING NOLOS
THE TERRIBLE.
EVIL INCARNATE.
HE'D SLAUGHTER HUNDREDS
OF PEOPLE FOR NO REASON.
HUNTED THEM FOR SPORT.
FINALLY, A GREAT EIRON SAGE
LED A REBELLION.
THE PEOPLE TORE KING NOLOS
INTO A THOUSAND PIECES.
BURIED HIM IN
A SECRET CHAMBER
UNDERNEATH
THE PALACE.
DO YOU RECALL THE CURSE
OF KING NOLOS?
YEAH -- WHEN THERE WAS
ENOUGH EVIL IN THE WORLD,
HIS SPIRIT WOULD BE AWAKENED
BY A MAGIC SPELL,
RETURN TO THE REALM OF THE
LIVING AND WREAK ITS REVENGE.
AND HUNT DOWN THE ONE
WHO HAD AWAKENED IT.
WE SHOULD TELL THIS TO DAR.
HE SAID TO WAIT FOR HIM.
YOU WAIT HERE --
I'LL GO ON AHEAD.
ALONE?
WITH THE KILLER OUT THERE?
WE'LL GO TOGETHER.
[ whooshing ]
[ shrilling ]
THANKS, SHARAK.
KEEP LOOKING.
[ shrilling ]
COME ON!
[ whooshing ]
LET'S GO!
[ shrilling ]
[ screaming ]
WHAT IS IT?
[ squealing ]
DON'T TRY TO SNEAK UP ON ME.
YOU SEEM TENSE.
EVERYONE SEEMS
A BIT TENSE RIGHT NOW.
THEY HAVE GOOD REASON TO BE.
SOMETHING IS KILLING
INNOCENT PEOPLE IN XINCA.
YES, THE KILLINGS.
THAT'S ALL ANYONE
EVER TALKS ABOUT THESE DAYS.
HOW IS SHARAK?
WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
DOES HE SEEM
DIFFERENT?
CHANGED
IN ANY WAY?
HE'S WORRIED.
HE SENSED SOMETHING EVIL.
THAT'S ALL?
COULD YOU TELL ME
WHERE IT'S COMING FROM?
WHY DOES EVERYONE
THINK I KNOW?
DO YOU?
NO --
IF YOUR FRIENDS
KNOW SO MUCH,
ASK THEM.
I DID.
THEY'RE SENSING
THE SAME DANGER.
THERE'S SOMETHING
IT WANTS TO KILL.
I CAN DO MANY THINGS,
BUT I CANNOT CONJURE EVIL.
[ shrilling ]
IT'S HAPPENING AGAIN.
[ whooshing ]
[ screaming ]
[ screaming ]
TWO MORE.
WE HAVE TO STOP THIS.
THERE'S THE KILLERS!
LET'S GO.
ARGH!
[ whooshing ]
[ screaming ]
DAR, NO!
[ whooshing ]
TAO, NO!
DAR MIGHT NEED
OUR HELP.
SOMETHING'S COMING.
DAR, ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?
YEAH.
WHAT HAPPENED
TO THE KNIGHTS?
THEY TRIED
TO RUN FROM IT.
JUST LIKE ALL THE OTHERS.
YEAH.
I WANT SLYTHIUS.
GET ME SLYTHIUS!
HE'S NOT HERE
OR ANYWHERE IN THE KINGDOM.
I NEVER GAVE HIM
PERMISSION TO GO.
DOES A RAT ASK PERMISSION
TO LEAVE A SINKING SHIP?
ARGH.
MAYBE I CAN HELP YOU.
YOU KNOW WHO THE KILLER IS?
YES...
AND NO.
I THINK IT'S A SPIRIT.
OR A GHOST.
ANYWAY, IT'S SOMETHING
THAT'S NOT LIVING.
AT LEAST
THAT'S WHAT ATTACKED YOUR MEN
AND THE BEASTMASTER.
SO HE'S DEAD?
HE'S VERY
MUCH ALIVE.
AND MY KNIGHTS?
THEY'RE DEAD.
WHAT?
ALL OF THEM?
NOT THE BEASTMASTER.
YOU'RE PROTECTING HIM.
NOT ME.
THEN WHY WASN'T HE KILLED TOO?
HE DIDN'T RUN FROM IT,
LIKE YOUR MEN DID.
PERHAPS
HIS COURAGE PROTECTS HIM.
Angry man:
WHERE'S THE SORCERESS?
[ clamouring ]
I THINK YOU HAD SOMETHING TO DO
WITH THE KILLINGS.
ME, WHY?
OH, HA, HA -- IT ONLY STARTED
AFTER YOUR ARRIVAL.
HOW DO THEY EVEN KNOW
I'M HERE?
YOU CAN'T EXPECT PALACE STAFF
TO KEEP A SECRET.
IT'S HARD TO FIND
GOOD HELP THESE DAYS.
AREN'T YOU GOING TO FAVOUR THEM
WITH A GLANCE?
I'LL FAVOUR THEM
WITH MORE THAN THAT.
[ Zad chuckling ]
THIS IS SOMETHING
I MUST SEE.
[ shouting ]
[ silence ]
YOU'RE THEIR KING.
CAN'T YOU DO SOMETHING
WITH THIS RABBLE?
SHE'S EVIL!
[ shouting ]
EITHER YOU STOP THEM
OR I WILL.
PEOPLE OF XINCA.
QUIET!
SORCERESS HAS NOTHING TO DO
WITH THESE KILLINGS.
BUT I KNOW WHO DOES.
A CREATURE FROM THE FOREST,
UNCIVILIZED, UNNATURAL.
AND HE'S AMONGST US,
RIGHT NOW.
WHO?
WHO?
DO TELL US!
THE ONE YOU SEEK...
IS THE BEASTMASTER!
BEASTMASTER!
BEASTMASTER?
BEASTMASTER?
[ clamouring ]
GO, FIND HIM!
BRING HIM BACK TO ME.
LET ZAD, YOUR KING, BE
THE INSTRUMENT OF YOUR REVENGE!
[ clamouring ]
KING NOLOS,
IT HAS TO BE.
HE'S RETURNED.
CAN HE
BE STOPPED?
WE MUST DESTROY
HIS REMAINS.
WE HAVE TO FIND
THE TOMB.
TAO'S AUNT SAID
THERE WAS A GATE
LEADING TO THE
BURIAL CHAMBER.
MY AUNT SAID MANY THINGS
THAT WEREN'T TRUE.
CALLED IT THE
GATE OF DARKNESS.
OR THE TUNNEL OF DESPAIR.
IT NEVER SAW
THE LIGHT OF DAY.
IT WOULD BE
ON THE NORTH WALL.
IT WOULDN'T SEE
THE LIGHT OF DAY.
THERE HE IS --
GET HIM.
HE'S THE ONE.
FIND THE GATE --
I'LL SEE YOU LATER.
GO.
I KNOW YOU'RE AFRAID.
YOU HAVE EVERY
REASON TO BE.
GIVE IT TO HIM!
[ grunting ]
THERE'S BEEN ENOUGH KILLING
IN XINCA.
IT HAS TO STOP, NOW.
GET HIM!
[ clamouring ]
YOU'D BETTER BE RIGHT
ABOUT THE BEASTMASTER
OR YOU MIGHT AS WELL FALL
ON YOUR OWN SWORDS.
SAVE ME THE TROUBLE.
THE MOB HAS HIM
CORNERED
IN THE NORTHERN
SECTOR.
THAT'S NOT A MOB.
THOSE ARE MY LOYAL SUBJECTS.
ASSEMBLE MORE MEN.
MAKE SURE HE DOESN'T ESCAPE.
I'LL HANDLE THIS PERSONALLY.
YES, SIRE.
[ shouting ]
HE'S
ON THE WALL!
CUT HIM OFF.
HE'S UP THERE!
CUT HIM OFF!
THERE HE IS, GET HIM!
THIS WAY!
REMEMBER,
I DON'T WANT HIM DEAD,
JUST BADLY HURT.
LET'S NOT SPILL MORE BLOOD
THAN WE HAVE TO.
TELL YOUR MEN
TO DROP THEIR WEAPONS.
YOU ARROGANT PUP --
TAKE HIM.
[ grunting ]
TAKE HIM!
[ whooshing ]
[ screaming ]
DAMN YOU!
STAND UP AND FIGHT!
WHAT'S THE MATTER --
FIGHT.
WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU?
[ whooshing ]
[ moaning ]
BEASTMASTER.
I NEED YOUR HELP.
YOU WANT MY HELP?
I DON'T LIKE IT EITHER,
BUT I DON'T HAVE ANY CHOICE.
THESE ARE MY BEST KNIGHTS.
IT'S KILLING EVERYONE
BUT YOU.
WHY?
IT FEEDS ON FEAR.
YOU AND I ARE ALIVE
'CAUSE WE STOOD OUR GROUND.
IMAGINE THAT.
ME AND THE BEASTMASTER.
BROTHERS UNDER THE SKIN.
I WOULDN'T GO THAT FAR, ZAD.
WELL,
WHAT DO YOU SAY?
YOU'RE EVERYTHING
I FIGHT AGAINST.
THE WORST OF HUMAN NATURE.
YOU WON'T TURN YOUR BACK
WHILE INNOCENT PEOPLE
ARE MURDERED.
I'LL HELP YOU.
DO I HAVE YOUR WORD?
YOU HAVE MY WORD.
WE'VE SEARCHED
ALL OVER THIS NORTH WALL.
STILL NO SIGN OF ANY GATE.
IT MUST BE HERE
SOMEWHERE.
YOU HAVE THAT MUCH FAITH
IN THE OLD LEGEND?
I HAVE FAITH
IN YOUR AUNT.
HMM, ALL RIGHT --
SHE SAID THE SUN
WOULD SHINE UPON THE GATE
ONE SPECIAL DAY EVERY YEAR.
COULD BE MONTHS
FROM NOW.
HMM.
I HAVE A CHART --
IT FOLLOWS THE SUN'S MOVEMENTS.
I'VE NOTICED THAT IT SETS
IN A DIFFERENT PLACE
EVERY DAY
AND ITS RAYS FOLLOW
A CERTAIN PATH
LIKE THIS.
CARO.
XINCA WAS BUILT ON TOP
OF BALMAGESH.
THE GATE
MUST BE UNDERNEATH.
[ groaning ]
[ exhaling ]
TAO!
OW!
I DON'T BELIEVE IT.
OHH!
AHHH!
ARE YOU OKAY?
YEAH.
Caro:
KING NOLOS' PALACE.
IT COULD BE.
IT'S CERTAINLY OLDER
THAN XINCA.
WHICH WAY TO HIS TOMB?
THIS WAY.
OKAY.
[ whooshing ]
DID YOU HEAR
THAT?
RIGHT BEHIND US.
WE CAN'T GO BACK.
DAR SAID
IT FEEDS ON FEAR.
AS LONG AS WE'RE NOT AFRAID,
WE'RE FINE.
[ whooshing ]
TAO.
YEAH?
YOU THINK KING NOLOS WOULD JUST
LET US DESTROY HIS REMAINS?
I THINK I'M AFRAID.
[ whooshing ]
NOLOS THE TERRIBLE,
BALMAGESH?
ALL THIS RIGHT UNDERNEATH XINCA?
Sorceress:
THE ANCIENT ONE WAS IMPRESSED
WITH NOLOS' CRUELTY.
WHY HAS
HE COME BACK?
BECAUSE THERE'S SO MUCH EVIL
IN XINCA.
WHAT EVIL?
THERE'S NO EVIL HERE.
THERE'S YOU.
I RULE WITH AN IRON FIST.
PEOPLE NEED THAT.
Dar:
NOLOS PROBABLY SAID
THE SAME THING.
ACCORDING TO YOUR LEGEND,
SOMETHING HAD TO AWAKEN IT.
OR SOMEONE.
WHY ARE YOU BOTH LOOKING AT ME?
WHO ELSE HERE
CAN CAST A SPELL?
WHO ELSE
CAN RAISE THE DEAD?
OH, NO, NOT ME.
NOT EVEN THE ANCIENT ONE
COULD RAISE THE DEAD.
YOU SAID THAT NOLOS WAS TORN
INTO A THOUSAND PIECES.
MAYBE HIS SOUL
NEVER DIED.
MAYBE YOU DID SOMETHING
TO AWAKEN IT.
Dar:
MAYBE YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW
YOU DID IT.
MAYBE SHE DOES --
SHE'S TRIED TO DESTROY ME.
DON'T FLATTER YOURSELF --
WHY WOULD I BOTHER?
TO HELP HIM
STEAL MY KINGDOM!
MAYBE I SHOULD CUT YOU
INTO A THOUSAND PIECES.
ARE SURE YOU WOULDN'T BE AFRAID
IF YOU HAD TO FACE NOLOS?
Sorceress:
BECAUSE
IF YOU WERE AFRAID,
NOLOS WOULD DESTROY YOU.
WELL, IF YOU BOYS ARE GOING
TO SURVIVE,
IT LOOKS LIKE YOU'RE GOING
TO HAVE TO WORK TOGETHER.
[ growling ]
[ whooshing ]
IT'S GETTING COLDER.
YEAH.
LISTEN.
[ whooshing ]
DON'T BE AFRAID.
[ whooshing ]
[ squealing ]
WHAT ARE THEY
DOING?
TRYING TO FIND
TAO'S SCENT.
Dar:
THEY FOUND IT.
NOLOS' TOMB
IS DOWN THERE?
SO ARE TAO AND CARO.
WELL,
AFTER YOU.
WOMAN, BRING ME FIRE!
[ screaming ]
UGH.
SMOOTH.
TAO?
CARO?
THEY'RE PROBABLY DEAD.
Dar:
NO.
KODO AND PODO SAID
THEY'VE GONE THIS WAY.
YOU EXPECT ME
TO TRUST MY LIFE
TO A PAIR
OF SMELLY RATS?
FERRETS.
WHAT?
THEY'RE FERRETS.
WAIT, WAIT!
I'M COMING.
[ whooshing ]
IT'S AFTER US.
RUN!
GO!
[ panting ]
IS IT GONE?
I THINK SO.
TAO!
KING NOLOS' TOMB.
THIS IS ANCIENT EIRON.
IT'LL TAKE SOME TIME TO READ.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
WE MUST DESTROY
HIS REMAINS.
AHHH!
[ rattling ]
I DON'T THINK HE LIKES EIRONS.
IT'S COMING.
WHATEVER YOU DO,
DON'T BE AFRAID.
NOTHING --
IT'S EMPTY.
TAO?
CARO?
SO, THIS IS NOLOS' TOMB.
TAO'S BAG.
THEY'VE BEEN HERE.
THEN THEY'RE DEAD.
IF THEY'VE GONE
THROUGH THAT DOOR,
THEY'D HAVE TO PASS US.
FORGET THEM --
WE'RE HERE TO FIGHT NOLOS.
WAIT.
THAT'S WHERE THE EVIL CAME IN.
OR HOW TAO
AND CARO GOT OUT.
HERE.
WHAT
ARE YOU DOING?
FINDING
MY FRIENDS.
WE HAD A DEAL.
WE STILL DO.
UGH!
I'M NOT GOING TO DIE
LIKE SOME RAT IN A HOLE.
CARO?
NOTHING TO BE AFRAID OF,
JUST EVIL INCARNATE.
[ squealing ]
OHH!
SORRY, UH, KODO?
WHERE'S DAR?
WHAT AM I DOING --
THAT'S RIDICULOUS.
THAT MIGHT WORK.
WHERE IS HE?
RIGHT HERE.
AHH!
[ chuckling ]
SORRY.
I THOUGHT YOU WERE NOLOS.
I THOUGHT
YOU MIGHT NEED THIS.
THANK YOU.
WHERE'S CARO?
WE CLIMBED UP INSIDE THE CHAMBER
AND THE TORCH WENT OUT.
WE WERE SEPARATED
AND, UH...
I DON'T KNOW.
WE'LL FIND HER
AND GET BACK TO ZAD.
ZAD'S DOWN HERE?
[ panting ]
ALL RIGHT, NOLOS.
MEET KING ZAD!
AHH!
WHO THE HELL ARE YOU?
CARO --
I'M A HEALER.
WHERE'S NOLOS?
HE'S COMING.
AHHH!
WHERE --
I CAN'T SEE HIM.
LISTEN.
[ whooshing ]
AHHH!
[ chuckling ]
I'M NOT AFRAID.
YOU WILL BE.
NONSENSE.
YOU WILL FEEL HIS HATE,
HIS EVIL.
YOU'LL BE AFRAID.
YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO HELP IT.
[ whooshing ]
MAYBE YOU'RE RIGHT.
FEED ON THAT.
[ whooshing ]
CARO?
[ whooshing ]
WHAT IS IT?
THE COLD --
RIGHT IN THIS VERY SPOT.
FEEL IT?
YEAH.
NOLOS HAS
BEEN HERE.
CARO!
SHE'S STILL BREATHING.
IS SHE HURT?
SHE'S FINE.
TAO.
I WAS TRYING
TO FIND YOU...
BUT FOUND ZAD
INSTEAD.
HE LEFT ME
FOR NOLOS.
NOLOS SPARED YOU --
WHY?
I DON'T KNOW.
I FELT
A TERRIBLE COLD.
HE WASN'T INTERESTED --
YOU WERE UNCONSCIOUS.
YOU WEREN'T AFRAID.
ZAD SAVED YOUR LIFE.
HE DIDN'T MEAN TO --
LET'S GET OUT.
WHERE ARE YOU GOING?
FIND NOLOS --
TAKE THE TORCH.
HOW WILL YOU FIND HIM?
JUST GO.
WHAT ARE YOU
DOING HERE?
SAME THING AS YOU.
LOOKING FOR A WAY
TO STOP HIM.
WHY DO YOU CARE?
ACCORDING TO THIS, HE'LL COME
LOOKING FOR HIS SAVIOUR.
YOU HAD SOMETHING TO DO
WITH THIS AFTER ALL.
I MIGHT HAVE.
I KNEW IT.
SHE DID SUMMON
KING NOLOS.
I DIDN'T MEAN TO.
WHAT WERE YOU TRYING TO DO?
I WANTED TO CHANGE SHARAK
BACK INTO A MAN.
INSTEAD I FREED NOLOS,
AND NOW I MAY HAVE--
CAN YOU SEND
HIM BACK?
NO.
IT SAYS HE MUST BE KILLED
IN BATTLE.
YOU CAN'T FIGHT A SPIRIT.
UNLESS HE HAS A BODY.
YOU THINK HE'LL TURN INTO FLESH
FOR US TO FIGHT HIM?
NO, BUT YOU CAN.
IT IS POSSIBLE.
HE WAS ONCE FLESH.
A TRANSFORMATION SPELL
MIGHT WORK.
YOU REALLY THINK
WE OUGHT TO DO THIS?
IT'S THE ONLY CHANCE WE HAVE.
TRY AND GET IT RIGHT THIS TIME.
SPIRITS OF THE EARTH,
LAND AND SEA,
FIND THE ONE
THAT WAS SET FREE.
GIVE THIS SPECTRE FLESH,
SO THAT IT MAY BE CALLED
TO ACCOUNT FOR ITSELF.
[ roaring ]
HE'S BACK.
GOOD LUCK.
HEAR IT.
[ roaring ]
[ laughing ]
ZAD,
YOU GAVE ME YOUR WORD.
YOU GAVE ME YOUR WORD TOO.
I'M JUST SEEING
THAT YOU STICK TO IT.
'BYE, BEASTMASTER.
[ roaring ]
I'VE WAITED
A THOUSAND YEARS.
I HOPE YOU'RE WORTHY.
FIND OUT.
[ roaring ]
[ grunting ]
[ laughing ]
[ yelling ]
[ screaming ]
YOU LEFT DAR
TO FACE NOLOS.
WHAT COULD I DO?
HE INSISTED.
IT'S NOT MY FAULT
IF HE WANTED TO GO IT ALONE.
I APPRECIATE YOUR CONCERN.
YOU WON?
NOLOS IS DEAD.
WE'RE ALL FREE TO LEAVE.
ARE YOU SURE HE'S DEAD?
HOW DO YOU KNOW
HE WON'T RETURN?
YOU KNOW WHAT HE FEEDS ON.
IF YOU WANT TO MAKE SURE,
END THE FEAR
AND THE SUFFERING
IN XINCA.
NO.
I'LL SEAL UP
THE CATACOMBS.
DESTROY THE FOUNDATIONS
OF NOLOS' PALACE.
THERE'LL BE
NOTHING LEFT.
YOU'LL NEVER LEARN.
I'LL LET YOU WALK AWAY
THIS TIME, BEASTMASTER.
DON'T YOU EXPECT THIS MERCY
AGAIN.
YOU'RE WELCOME.
[ growling ]
I KNOW YOU WANT TO GO, RUH.
JUST GIVE TAO A MOMENT.
[ growling ]
COME WITH US.
TAO.
YOU KNOW I CAN'T.
AS LONG AS ZAD IS KING,
PEOPLE IN XINCA WILL SUFFER.
THEY NEED A GOOD HEALER.
I COULD USE YOUR HELP HERE.
DAR NEEDS ME.
I KNOW.
BUT ONE DAY,
WE'LL BE FREE...
TO FOLLOW OUR DESTINY.
[ whooshing ]
[ growling ]
I SEE MY SPELL
WORKED OUT PERFECTLY.
I DIDN'T MEAN TO CAUSE
ALL THIS TROUBLE.
I JUST WANTED
TO SET SHARAK FREE.
MAYBE SOME THINGS
AREN'T MEANT TO BE.
BUT WE DON'T KNOW THAT.
THERE'S ONLY ONE WAY
TO FIND OUT.
[ shrilling ]
[ twittering ]
YOU'RE NOT GOING TO GIVE UP
THAT EASILY, ARE YOU?
TELL ME SOMETHING.
WOULD YOU?
NO.
[ twittering ]
[ growling ]
ALL RIGHT, RUH,
LET'S GO.
