1. You cannot make your livingCopy !req
2. in the land of the dead,
my dear.Copy !req
3. The only wealth
you'll need to bringCopy !req
4. is the currency of fear.Copy !req
5. It's an old
Trollan nursey rhyme.Copy !req
6. Flee before your mind goes mad,
trust not what Subternia shows,Copy !req
7. terror fuels the fires of hellCopy !req
8. whose lord is called Skell—
Oh, what is that?Copy !req
9. Eyes open, everyone.Copy !req
10. Let's find the sword
and get out...Copy !req
11. Orko? Andra?Copy !req
12. Lyn?Copy !req
13. Tee... Laa...Copy !req
14. Ah! Where are we?Copy !req
15. Oh, Trolla!Copy !req
16. I'm home!Copy !req
17. Wait.Copy !req
18. Am... am I dead?Copy !req
19. Of course not, simpleton.Copy !req
20. This is some kind of
Subternian illusion.Copy !req
21. A very good illusion.Copy !req
22. But where are the others?Copy !req
23. Mystic observation lens,Copy !req
24. reveal where we may
find our friends!Copy !req
25. - Ahh!Copy !req
26. Imbecile.Copy !req
27. Good idea!Copy !req
28. Someone at the Academy
of Magic can help us find them!Copy !req
29. Hey, wait up, Lyn!
Can I call you Lyn?Copy !req
30. No.Copy !req
31. My lady, where are you?Copy !req
32. My lady?Copy !req
33. It doesn't make sense!Copy !req
34. She was right in front of us!Copy !req
35. Calm. Down.Copy !req
36. First, we figure out
where we are,Copy !req
37. then we can look
for the others.Copy !req
38. Roboto, access
your enhanced telemetry.Copy !req
39. Where are we?Copy !req
40. Sensors indicate
we are... nowhere.Copy !req
41. Yeah.Copy !req
42. And I suppose
we're alone, too.Copy !req
43. I detect no other
life forms in the...Copy !req
44. I smell a fight.Copy !req
45. Ah!Copy !req
46. - At last...Copy !req
47. So much anger...Copy !req
48. Masking so much fear...Copy !req
49. Skeletor?Copy !req
50. but I remember that name.Copy !req
51. Who are you?Copy !req
52. - The shadow of a ruler...Copy !req
53. now ruler of shadows...Copy !req
54. and this humble domain.Copy !req
55. Why have you come to this place?Copy !req
56. I'm looking for a sword.Copy !req
57. Ah! A collector... like myself!Copy !req
58. A keeper of relics.Copy !req
59. Once treasured,
now without purpose,Copy !req
60. abandoned to the deep end of eternity.Copy !req
61. Though some of them,Copy !req
62. the special ones,
still do glow...Copy !req
63. I will give you
that which you seek, Teela...Copy !req
64. as an exchange.Copy !req
65. Exchange for what?Copy !req
66. Your fear!Copy !req
67. Show it to me!Copy !req
68. How long I have waited here,Copy !req
69. alone and deprived.Copy !req
70. Nourish me
with your delicious fear!Copy !req
71. I fear nothing.Copy !req
72. Oh, you are dripping with it!Copy !req
73. Reveal your fearCopy !req
74. and I will give you
what you came for.Copy !req
75. All right. My fear...Copy !req
76. in exchange for
the Sword of PowerCopy !req
77. and the safe return
of my companions.Copy !req
78. Done!Copy !req
79. Enter the Well of Darkness,
Teela.Copy !req
80. Survive your demons
and gain the prize you seek.Copy !req
81. Succumb to themCopy !req
82. and you will spend
eternity here,Copy !req
83. with me,
as part of my collection.Copy !req
84. The revelation beckons!Copy !req
85. The Spellspring!Copy !req
86. - "Spellspring"?
- A great font
of mystical energy.Copy !req
87. The never-ending source
of all Trollan magic.Copy !req
88. Our life force.Copy !req
89. But... it's dry.Copy !req
90. They're all gone.Copy !req
91. How?Copy !req
92. Magic really is dying,Copy !req
93. and not just in Eternia.Copy !req
94. But why are we being shown this?Copy !req
95. The scary thing is...Copy !req
96. w-what if it's not just
an illusion?Copy !req
97. If they're really gone, then...Copy !req
98. then that makes me...Copy !req
99. the last Trollan
in the universe.Copy !req
100. You're right.
That is scary.Copy !req
101. You know,
my name isn't really Orko.Copy !req
102. Well, I mean,
it sort of is, but...Copy !req
103. My parents wanted to
set me up for greatness,Copy !req
104. so when I was born,
they gave me a nameCopy !req
105. to match the position of honorCopy !req
106. they expected
I'd achieve one day.Copy !req
107. But, when you're little,Copy !req
108. some words are
hard to pronounce.Copy !req
109. I said "Orko"
when I really meant—Copy !req
110. Oracle.Copy !req
111. They called you Oracle.Copy !req
112. All-knowing, all-powerful.Copy !req
113. No pressure, right?Copy !req
114. Well, didn't take long to see
how different I wasCopy !req
115. from the other younglings.Copy !req
116. Magic comes easy to Trollans,
even in youth.Copy !req
117. But me?
I can't do anything right.Copy !req
118. Spells, charms,
they all end in disaster.Copy !req
119. Anyway, "Orko" stuck, and...Copy !req
120. I think when my parents saw
the failure I'd become,Copy !req
121. they were glad it did.Copy !req
122. "Oracle" would've only made
people laugh at meCopy !req
123. more than they already did.Copy !req
124. No one's laughing now.Copy !req
125. I was the least of them,
now I may be the last.Copy !req
126. That's funny, right?Copy !req
127. Small...Copy !req
128. insignificant...Copy !req
129. You have to fightCopy !req
130. for everything
they won't give you.Copy !req
131. Your enemies, yes,
but especially your friends.Copy !req
132. When they say you're weak,Copy !req
133. it's because
they don't understandCopy !req
134. how even the tiniest
measure of strengthCopy !req
135. can fill an entire universe.Copy !req
136. To them, it's "sorcery."Copy !req
137. To me...Copy !req
138. it's magic.Copy !req
139. Can I ask you
a personal question?Copy !req
140. No, they didn't call me "Evil,"
I added that part later.Copy !req
141. Oh, bollocks.Copy !req
142. Run!Copy !req
143. Okay. We've covered falling
and being alone in the dark.Copy !req
144. Not my idea of terrifying,
but whatever!Copy !req
145. Let's keep this going!Copy !req
146. Come on! I'm waiting!Copy !req
147. Ah. Okay.Copy !req
148. No!Copy !req
149. Excuse me.Copy !req
150. I'm sorry. Pardon me.Copy !req
151. Sorry. Excuse me.Copy !req
152. That will require
medical attention.Copy !req
153. Anything useful you can tell us
about your friends here?Copy !req
154. Firebats are no friends of mine!Copy !req
155. - "Firebats"?Copy !req
156. Ahh!Copy !req
157. They are Shadow Beasts,Copy !req
158. but unlike any
we have encountered.Copy !req
159. They seem to be
reacting to fear.Copy !req
160. Your fear.Copy !req
161. Why not yours?Copy !req
162. As an artificial construct,
I do not experience fear.Copy !req
163. Okay, then, I envy you!Copy !req
164. Because it is hard to fight
when you're...Copy !req
165. pants-wetting scared!Copy !req
166. How enlightening.Copy !req
167. "Enlightening"!Copy !req
168. You're a powerful witch!Copy !req
169. You must have a spell
or two you could use!Copy !req
170. I need my staff to focus
what magic I have left!Copy !req
171. What about you?Copy !req
172. I told you!
If I'm good at anything,Copy !req
173. it's being good at nothing.Copy !req
174. Unless shadows can
slip on banana peelsCopy !req
175. or catch on fire,
I'm useless.Copy !req
176. Sounds like
your parents talking.Copy !req
177. - I've waited a long time
for this!Copy !req
178. Ahh!Copy !req
179. And you wonder why
I didn't trust you.Copy !req
180. But you did.Copy !req
181. In every battle,
against any rival.Copy !req
182. With your life.Copy !req
183. Not my real life!Copy !req
184. Turns out,
you never knew me at all.Copy !req
185. You have always been alone!Copy !req
186. You are not him!Copy !req
187. You're not real!Copy !req
188. You are nothing!Copy !req
189. I am fear.Copy !req
190. Your fear.Copy !req
191. - Inadequacy and abandonment...Copy !req
192. frailty and isolation...
all because of a secretCopy !req
193. I imparted to everyone...Copy !req
194. but you!Copy !req
195. So much power for one being
to hold over another.Copy !req
196. I have the power...Copy !req
197. because you surrender it.Copy !req
198. Ahh!Copy !req
199. Now I see!Copy !req
200. Now I know what
really frightens you!Copy !req
201. Most people fear
being ordinary...Copy !req
202. but you are just the opposite.Copy !req
203. - Ahh!
- They lied because they were
trying to protect you.Copy !req
204. From what?Copy !req
205. From what you fear the most...Copy !req
206. that which so
deftly controls you...Copy !req
207. your own fate.Copy !req
208. I control my fate.Copy !req
209. By hiding it away.Copy !req
210. Pretending to be ordinaryCopy !req
211. when you know, deep down,Copy !req
212. you are so much more.Copy !req
213. And how that must terrify you...Copy !req
214. Yes. Yes it does.Copy !req
215. Because I don't understand it.Copy !req
216. I never have.Copy !req
217. But that doesn't
mean it controls me.Copy !req
218. I own my power.Copy !req
219. Every part of it.Copy !req
220. My strength, my hope...Copy !req
221. Even my fear.Copy !req
222. And you can't have any of it.Copy !req
223. No, we made a deal!Copy !req
224. Feed me your fright.Copy !req
225. Give me your power!Copy !req
226. The only power down here
is the one you've given me.Copy !req
227. The power to manifest my fears.Copy !req
228. To control them.Copy !req
229. To own them.Copy !req
230. This can't be.Copy !req
231. What... are you?Copy !req
232. Oh, Scare Glow...Copy !req
233. I'm your worst nightmare.Copy !req
234. Orko... Orko! It's over.Copy !req
235. You're all alive!Copy !req
236. But where's...?Copy !req
237. Teela!Copy !req
238. You found the sword!Copy !req
239. Give it to me!Copy !req
240. That is only half
the Sword of Power.Copy !req
241. Do you know how to find
the other half?Copy !req
242. Almighty Zoar,Copy !req
243. disintegrate this rock
and open Heaven's gate.Copy !req
244. Turn to account the eyes of fateCopy !req
245. and lead us to the saber's mate!Copy !req
246. Is that...Copy !req
247. Preternia?Copy !req
248. How did—?Copy !req
249. With every last bit of magic
she could conjure...Copy !req
250. for the good guys!Copy !req
251. Turns out, nobody's born evil.Copy !req
252. But what really matters...Copy !req
253. is how you die!Copy !req
254. Run!Copy !req
255. Ahh!Copy !req
256. Not now!Copy !req
257. Yes. Yes.Copy !req
258. Your fear... crying out!Copy !req
259. Louder... louder... louder!Copy !req
260. Insect!Copy !req
261. Look! Lyn!Copy !req
262. I'm doing it! Me!Copy !req
263. Orko, you have to hold on!Copy !req
264. Teela, it's okay.Copy !req
265. I'm not afraid.Copy !req
266. He can't scare me.Copy !req
267. He can't do this alone.Copy !req
268. Huh?Copy !req
269. Demon, be gone...Copy !req
270. Go back to your shadow!Copy !req
271. Orko...Copy !req
272. I tried to save him.Copy !req
273. Not hard enough.Copy !req
274. It should have been you.Copy !req
275. Stand down!Copy !req
276. This alliance was a mistake.Copy !req
277. But one I can easily fix.Copy !req
278. Teela!Copy !req
279. Adam?Copy !req
280. By the power of Grayskull...!Copy !req
