[Terry narrates]
[Finnegrin] You've done this before.
Is it such a big deal dirtying yourself
with a little dark magic?
[Callum] There must be a way
to destroy the Pearl, really destroy it.
[Callum] I say, you and me take a journey
up to the Starscraper,
to the frozen north.
The path of freedom is the path of truth.
[Viren] I must face my truth
in Katolis.
Everyone leaves.
But you're never going to leave me.
Because I'm leaving you first.
Claudia, please.
I will be here for you.
[theme music playing]
[ominous music playing]
[pained breathing]
[Callum] I did one spell. One.
[steadying breaths]
I had to.
[gasps]
[wind howling]
[grunts]
[Callum panting]
Aw, look at that pair.
Sneezles and Snoozles.
[chittering]
[pants]
Wha?
- Wake up, kids.
- [yawns]
Sleepy, easy part of the journey is over.
Time for the treacherous,
perilous, hardship part.
[Callum] So this is it? The Frozen Sea.
- Seems like they named it about right.
- [chitters]
The rest of the journey to the Starscraper
is over the ice.
[crackles]
Uh, are you sure it will hold us?
Nope.
[Rayla] We need to spread our weight.
[chitters]
I know you're "widdle,"
but maybe you should walk with me
to even out the weight a little.
- [Shadowpaw grunts]
- [ice crackles]
[crackling]
[Rayla] Try to stay calm.
We'll get you out of there.
Kick your hind legs!
[Shadowpaw grunting]
[both straining]
Come on. You can
[growls desperately]
No! No, no, no, no!
Do some magic, mage.
- I know a water volcano spell.
- That.
Do that.
Mons aqueous!
[Shadowpaw grunting]
This place isn't for you.
You've been a brave companion, but
it's time for you to go home.
[grunts]
Home to the Silvergrove, to Ethari.
I'll see you again someday.
[gasps]
- Whoa, careful!
- Why'd you stop me?
- That's black ice.
- Oh.
Is it enchanted with dark magic?
Huh? No. [chuckles]
It's just It looks black
because it's so smooth.
I see.
Seems like maybe it's named
a bit over-dramatically
[shrieking]
[Sneezles chitters]
[sneezes]
Ugh!
Thanks. That was super smooth.
The ice, I mean.
Huh
[breathing heavily]
[cooing]
Is that a ship?
- How long do you think it's been here?
- No telling.
Couple centuries, maybe?
It's literally frozen in time.
It's literally frozen in ice.
It's figuratively frozen in time.
[sighs]
I'm going in,
see if there's anything useful,
supplies and such.
I'm the one who lost all my stuff,
I should go in.
No, there's no telling
how unstable the ship is
after so many years in the elements.
[ice crackling]
I'm quick and agile.
If anything shifts,
I'll be able to handle it.
Mm-hmm, very agile.
We all remember when
And don't bring up
the evil black ice incident.
What do you think?
[chitters]
Okay. Here goes.
[grunts]
[Stella chitters]
[Callum] "Ray of Illumination."
Seems like a nice name for a ship.
It's sad that this ship is stuck.
I mean, look at it.
This ship is going nowhere.
Think about when this ship
first became a thing,
people were so excited about this ship.
It was probably
some people's favorite ship.
They probably dreamed and imagined
this ship would go amazing places.
[sneezes]
Exactly. It's not moving at all.
I mean, you could sit here
and draw pictures of the ship,
but does that change anything?
[Sneezles chitters]
[Callum] The frozen ship. So sad.
[Stella chittering]
It's a diary.
I feel like maybe we
shouldn't be reading it.
Oh, you nosey little monkey.
[chitters]
True, maybe there's some untold danger
we can only learn about if we take a peek.
I have no idea if that's what you're
actually saying, but let's go with it.
[male voice] "Though our journeys to date
have been wildly successful
and I have acquired more treasure
and magical relics
than I ever dared dream,
shall I confess to you the one thing left
which I desire?"
- I think he should confess it, don't you?
- [chitters]
Actually, why am I assuming "he"?
"These are the private words
of Her Excellency
Captain Esmerelda Skall."
Let's try this again.
[female voice] "Shall I confess to you
the one thing left which I desire?"
[somber music playing]
[chitters]
[female voice]
"Here in the final gloaming of my days,
I find what I most deeply desire
is what I could have had all along,
the love of my dear Conrad."
"The voices that called me
away from him
duty, adventure, glory
are all hollow winds
that have left me cold and dying alone."
[Rayla sniffles]
[female voice] "Conrad, if you were here,
I would tell you I am sorry."
[Rayla sniffling]
[chitters]
[female voice] "Conrad, if you were here,
I would tell you that the vast mystery
I traveled the world to find
was contained in you along."
"Conrad, if you were here,
I would hold your gaze
and I would hold your hand"
[shiver s]
Rayla, it's getting dark!
You almost done?
[Rayla crying softly]
Everything okay?
[Rayla continues crying]
Is Rayla crying?
Rayla, I'm coming!
[female voice] "Conrad, if you were here,
I would tell you
all my choices were nothing,
and you are everything."
"Conrad, if you were here"
[Callum] Rayla!
Rayla, I'm here.
[Callum cries out]
I'm here.
Callum, you're here.
[door slams]
Yeah.
Rayla, all this time
Yeah?
All this time you were reading?
- Sorry, uh
- Rayla!
Yeah, I mean, I thought maybe there
was something we needed to know.
But it doesn't matter.
I told you not to come on the boat.
You were crying,
I thought something was wrong.
Nothing was wrong.
Either way, the sun's set
and it's crazy cold out there,
so we should stay here overnight,
where at least we have some shelter.
No. It's too unstable.
Nah! It's been frozen here for centuries,
it's not gonna suddenly sink tonight.
Look, she may be stuck,
but she's still a good ship.
[creaking]
Fine, we'll spend the night here.
But no punching the boat.
[breathes sharply]
Well, all my bedding plunged in
during the ice accident.
[sighs] Guess I can always use a pile
of loose planks as a blanket.
Hey, I invented a "planket."
[sneezes]
I don't suppose you want to use
the anti-magic blanket to keep you warm?
Absolutely not. I'll sleep easier
knowing the Pearl is safe.
Callum, why don't you just
share my blanket with me?
[chitters]
It's not really that big a deal.
Ooh, I'll be fine. Thanks.
I mean, more specifically, no thanks.
No offense. But no.
Okay then.
Oh, wow, I hadn't noticed before
that we had a view.
The sky is beautiful tonight.
They say the stars outlast us all
Eternal sentinels on high
But I have sought their silver hearts
And wonder if, perhaps, they die
Perhaps they gasp the cold of dawn
A final breath of living night
Then newborn sparks born of the dark
Breathe in the dusk
And breathe out light
Those are absolutely the softest,
most lovely words I've ever heard.
My dad wrote that.
King Harrow?
Uh, no, um, my dad dad.
His name was Damian.
He was a writer, a poet.
He lived with this terrible
breathing sickness his whole life.
He said it made him appreciate
every breath and every moment.
My mom said he was
the strongest person she ever knew.
Thank you, Callum.
Thank you for sharing with me.
[Callum shivering]
- Callum?
- Oh, I'm okay. I'm okay.
I'm fine. [shivers]
[stammers] I'm honestly warm, really.
[shivering]
Ugh, don't be stupid.
We're sharing the blanket.
[breathing heavily]
[exhales sharply]
- [Rayla] Mm.
- Uh, good night.
Night.
[both chirping]
[chitters]
[annoyed chittering]
[chitters]
[sneezes]
[sneezes]
- Oh. Hi.
- Hi, Callum.
- We're close.
- Yeah. We are.
I mean, our faces are.
Your breath is warm.
Oh, sorry.
- No, it's nice.
- Good.
Yeah.
[exhales sharply]
I have to tell you something.
Hm?
[stammers]
I did dark magic again.
What?
[Rayla] I can't believe
you used dark magic again.
- Because it's wrong?
- Because it's dangerous.
Because it hurts you.
But most of all,
because it makes you vulnerable
to the thing you're most afraid of.
[Callum sighs] Aaravos. I know.
So why? Why would you would do it again?
It doesn't matter now.
I did it, I'm ruined,
it's too late for me, who cares?
It's not too late for you if you quit.
I just don't understand
why you would keep doing it.
Knowing that it puts your life
in terrible danger.
- Fine! You want to know why?
- Yeah. I do!
- I did it for you!
- What?
Finnegrin was gonna kill you.
I didn't have a choice, because
[exhales emotionally]
I would do anything for you.
[sighs]
Am I supposed to thank you?
No, that's not what I'm saying. I, uh
Listen to me.
If you ever have to choose
between me and the greater good,
do the right thing.
Make the sacrifice.
[rumbles]
[creaking]
[breathing heavily]
I think it stopped.
[crackles]
- The lamp!
- Uh, we have to put it out!
Time to go.
[grunts]
[Rayla screams]
Stand back.
Sagitta venti!
[gasps] The Pearl!
[worried chitters]
Ah!
[creaking and rumbling]
Rayla, come on!
[Rayla coughing]
[grunts]
You told me to never sacrifice
the greater good for one person,
no matter who it is, well
You have to promise me something too.
What?
If Aaravos ever controls me again,
if he uses me
promise me you'll kill me.
Yes.
I promise.
[thunder rumbling]
[grunts]
[men shouting]
[horn blowing]
King Ezran, I know it's late.
There is a commotion on the bridge.
A mysterious stranger, a ranting madman.
[thunder rumbling]
[Viren] No, no. No, no, wait.
Wait, wait! Please!
Please, I just need to see the king.
I only need to see the king, please!
Don't touch me! Please!
I'm not here to cause any harm,
I just need to see the
king.
King Ezran?
My king.
I-I am a humble servant.
I-I have been humbled and brought low.
I have changed, I have [sobs]
Oh, I have changed.
Oh, my King, I have done things,
but I see
I see a different path!
Stop.
[sobbing]
Stop!
Are you begging for mercy?
[breathing heavily]
No.
Good. You don't deserve any.
[thunder rumbling]
