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