1
00:00:33,334 --> 00:00:35,084
{\an8} Careful.
2
00:00:35,126 --> 00:00:38,376
{\an8}If anything's even a micron
out of place, Father will know.
3
00:00:38,418 --> 00:00:40,209
{\an8}We don't want
to make him angry.
4
00:00:40,251 --> 00:00:42,459
{\an8}He's always kind of angry.
5
00:00:42,501 --> 00:00:44,209
No, he's just serious.
6
00:00:44,251 --> 00:00:47,084
{\an8}Being king is
a big responsibility.
7
00:00:47,126 --> 00:00:49,709
{\an8}Aha! Found it.
8
00:00:49,751 --> 00:00:51,418
Father's secret stash!
9
00:00:51,459 --> 00:00:53,751
Of what?
10
00:00:53,793 --> 00:00:56,626
{\an8}Technically, fruit juice.
11
00:00:57,918 --> 00:00:59,709
He's coming!
He's coming!
12
00:00:59,751 --> 00:01:02,001
Shh!
13
00:01:02,043 --> 00:01:03,793
You promised
his mother, Miro,
14
00:01:03,834 --> 00:01:05,209
on your name and honor,
15
00:01:05,251 --> 00:01:07,543
to send the boy home
when he came of age.
16
00:01:07,584 --> 00:01:11,209
He is my blood!
But not your heir.
17
00:01:11,251 --> 00:01:14,168
What waits at court
for the bastard son of a king,
18
00:01:14,209 --> 00:01:17,334
except the agony
of watching his younger brother
19
00:01:17,376 --> 00:01:20,084
wear a crown denied him
by his parentage?
20
00:01:20,126 --> 00:01:22,001
It is denied him by law.
21
00:01:22,043 --> 00:01:24,751
Then change the law,
Your Majesty.
22
00:01:24,793 --> 00:01:27,501
It is more complicated
than that.
23
00:01:27,543 --> 00:01:30,001
His people do not trust us.
24
00:01:30,043 --> 00:01:32,334
They are forbidden
from leaving their shores
25
00:01:32,376 --> 00:01:34,584
and setting foot upon our own.
26
00:01:34,626 --> 00:01:38,709
If I send my son there,
I am effectively banishing him.
27
00:01:38,751 --> 00:01:41,751
Eternos is banishment for him!
28
00:01:41,793 --> 00:01:44,793
In Anwat Gar, he would have
a chance to flourish.
29
00:01:44,834 --> 00:01:47,751
Here, he will always be second
to his younger brother
30
00:01:47,793 --> 00:01:51,334
until Randor produces an heir
to make him third.
31
00:01:51,376 --> 00:01:54,543
Keldor is a part of me, Amelia.
32
00:01:54,584 --> 00:01:57,626
And Randor thinks
he hung the moons.
33
00:01:57,668 --> 00:02:00,168
Which is kinder, my love?
34
00:02:00,209 --> 00:02:02,084
Keeping him close,
35
00:02:02,126 --> 00:02:04,626
condemning him to a life
in service of a crown
36
00:02:04,668 --> 00:02:07,876
that by divine right
should be his
37
00:02:07,918 --> 00:02:09,626
or sending him home
38
00:02:09,668 --> 00:02:12,668
a home where
he can build a life
39
00:02:12,709 --> 00:02:15,626
out from behind
the shadows of kings?
40
00:02:20,959 --> 00:02:23,376
He knew she was right,
of course.
41
00:02:23,418 --> 00:02:26,126
I was gone within a week.
42
00:02:26,168 --> 00:02:30,126
After I was returned to
Anwat Gar, the Horde attacked.
43
00:02:30,168 --> 00:02:31,459
I was wounded.
44
00:02:31,501 --> 00:02:33,501
Rumor spread
that I had perished.
45
00:02:33,543 --> 00:02:36,001
But I lived.
46
00:02:36,043 --> 00:02:39,543
And I chose to let
the rumor live as well.
47
00:02:39,584 --> 00:02:42,293
I thought my death
would make things easier
48
00:02:42,334 --> 00:02:45,543
for your grandfather
and for Randor.
49
00:02:45,584 --> 00:02:48,418
So he blamed himself
for what happened?
50
00:02:48,459 --> 00:02:52,918
Yes. Well, Randor
always took responsibility
51
00:02:52,959 --> 00:02:54,334
for everything.
52
00:02:54,376 --> 00:02:58,043
So I guess he was born a king.
53
00:02:58,084 --> 00:02:59,501
But was he?
54
00:02:59,543 --> 00:03:01,668
You need to know, Adam,
55
00:03:01,709 --> 00:03:06,084
back then, I wouldn't have
accepted the crown.
56
00:03:06,126 --> 00:03:07,418
Why not?
57
00:03:07,459 --> 00:03:09,626
You're the firstborn son
of King Miro.
58
00:03:09,668 --> 00:03:11,126
It was your right.
59
00:03:11,168 --> 00:03:14,584
But not my duty
and certainly not my desire.
60
00:03:14,626 --> 00:03:16,376
Miro's blood may flow
within me,
61
00:03:16,418 --> 00:03:19,501
but it's Saryn's,
my mother's blood, Gar blood
62
00:03:19,543 --> 00:03:22,626
that made me
the man I am today--
63
00:03:22,668 --> 00:03:25,543
more accustomed to feats
of engineering and mathematics
64
00:03:25,584 --> 00:03:28,334
than diplomacy and politics.
65
00:03:28,376 --> 00:03:32,001
Not to mention the feats
you perform, Adam.
66
00:03:32,043 --> 00:03:35,626
Or is it He-Man?
67
00:03:36,876 --> 00:03:38,959
I'm no politician either.
68
00:03:39,001 --> 00:03:41,251
Just a warrior.
69
00:03:41,293 --> 00:03:43,543
Yet, soon to be king--
70
00:03:43,584 --> 00:03:46,334
a sizable burden
for just one man,
71
00:03:46,376 --> 00:03:50,001
even a man of your strength.
72
00:03:51,126 --> 00:03:53,543
My father believed
that no one man
73
00:03:53,584 --> 00:03:56,376
should carry both
sword and scepter.
74
00:03:56,418 --> 00:03:58,334
He felt that
having that separation
75
00:03:58,376 --> 00:03:59,959
between king and champion
76
00:04:00,001 --> 00:04:02,126
was the will
of the power itself.
77
00:04:02,168 --> 00:04:05,709
And what do you feel?
78
00:04:05,751 --> 00:04:08,959
Confused.
79
00:04:09,001 --> 00:04:11,001
Why would the power
reveal itself to me
80
00:04:11,043 --> 00:04:13,709
if I was only ever destined
to give it up?
81
00:04:13,751 --> 00:04:15,876
Destiny can be
quite confounding
82
00:04:15,918 --> 00:04:18,043
when it's met out of time.
83
00:04:18,084 --> 00:04:20,626
If I've learned anything,
it's that.
84
00:04:20,668 --> 00:04:25,543
I do not desire
for the throne, Adam.
85
00:04:25,584 --> 00:04:28,251
And I think neither do you.
86
00:04:28,293 --> 00:04:30,168
Still...
87
00:04:31,168 --> 00:04:33,959
...Eternia needs a king.
88
00:04:36,876 --> 00:04:39,543
And a champion.
89
00:04:43,001 --> 00:04:45,293
Mom!
I'm okay, Adam.
90
00:04:45,334 --> 00:04:47,001
He-Man--I mean Adam.
91
00:04:47,043 --> 00:04:50,793
King Ada--Your Majesty,
we have trouble.
92
00:04:50,834 --> 00:04:53,459
Duncan, who's attacking us?
93
00:04:55,126 --> 00:04:56,668
Skeletor.
94
00:05:00,668 --> 00:05:03,001
Oh, dear. I know that look.
95
00:05:03,043 --> 00:05:05,168
Everyone, stand back!
96
00:05:05,209 --> 00:05:08,001
By the power of Grayskull,
97
00:05:08,043 --> 00:05:11,876
I have the power!
98
00:05:53,334 --> 00:05:56,084
The Armistice of the Three.
99
00:05:56,126 --> 00:05:58,084
Wait.
100
00:05:58,126 --> 00:06:00,043
Four?
101
00:06:00,084 --> 00:06:02,626
There aren't four towers.
102
00:06:02,668 --> 00:06:05,293
There are no towers at all.
103
00:06:10,751 --> 00:06:13,959
Not since the cataclysm
104
00:06:14,001 --> 00:06:17,668
when Preternia fell.
105
00:06:17,709 --> 00:06:19,751
Lord Granamyr,
106
00:06:19,793 --> 00:06:22,709
Your High Eminence
and Most Excellent Grace,
107
00:06:22,751 --> 00:06:25,501
I am--
Oh, I remember.
108
00:06:25,543 --> 00:06:27,626
What did she call you?
109
00:06:27,668 --> 00:06:30,418
Ah, yes, "Little Bird."
110
00:06:30,459 --> 00:06:32,959
Taking up your mother's charge,
it seems,
111
00:06:33,001 --> 00:06:35,793
has mellowed
your late impertinence.
112
00:06:37,293 --> 00:06:39,043
Listen...
113
00:06:39,084 --> 00:06:42,709
there were days when honeyed
words would win my favor,
114
00:06:42,751 --> 00:06:44,709
but now diplomacy
115
00:06:44,751 --> 00:06:48,168
is a time-consuming effort.
116
00:06:48,209 --> 00:06:51,793
So go on before it's too late.
117
00:06:51,834 --> 00:06:53,376
Too late?
118
00:06:53,418 --> 00:06:57,626
To say goodbye, my dear.
119
00:06:57,668 --> 00:07:00,084
That is why you've come, yes?
120
00:07:00,126 --> 00:07:03,959
To bear condolences
from your king
121
00:07:04,001 --> 00:07:07,168
over my impending demise.
122
00:07:07,209 --> 00:07:08,959
You're dying?
123
00:07:09,001 --> 00:07:12,001
I'm sorry.
I-I-I didn't know that you--
124
00:07:12,043 --> 00:07:15,501
And I'm afraid
the king is dead.
125
00:07:17,084 --> 00:07:18,418
Oh.
126
00:07:18,459 --> 00:07:21,001
Well, long live the king.
127
00:07:21,043 --> 00:07:23,543
I'm actually on a mission
to help him--
128
00:07:23,584 --> 00:07:26,543
well, his spirit, really,
129
00:07:26,584 --> 00:07:30,376
and all the noble spirits
that wander, or will wander,
130
00:07:30,418 --> 00:07:33,001
untethered since the cataclysm.
131
00:07:33,043 --> 00:07:36,543
The legends tell us
that Granamyr the Magnificent
132
00:07:36,584 --> 00:07:40,876
once granted humans access
to Ka, snake magic.
133
00:07:40,918 --> 00:07:43,751
I mean to resurrect Preternia
134
00:07:43,793 --> 00:07:46,376
to restore their great reward,
135
00:07:46,418 --> 00:07:48,668
but I can't do it
without the power of Ka.
136
00:07:48,709 --> 00:07:50,668
I'm here to ask for help.
137
00:07:50,709 --> 00:07:53,001
Well, you won't
get it from him.
138
00:07:54,584 --> 00:07:58,709
So you can stop your warbling,
Little Bird.
139
00:08:19,043 --> 00:08:20,418
What is that?
140
00:08:20,459 --> 00:08:22,043
Maybe we should ask him.
141
00:08:26,334 --> 00:08:28,376
Skeletor!
142
00:08:28,418 --> 00:08:31,626
I'd say he's more like
SkeleTek.
143
00:08:31,668 --> 00:08:35,293
SkeleTek? [chuckles] I like it.
144
00:08:35,334 --> 00:08:38,209
Did you come up
with that yourself?
145
00:08:44,126 --> 00:08:45,334
Keldor?
146
00:08:46,584 --> 00:08:50,168
Ooh, heroes come in blue now.
147
00:08:56,334 --> 00:08:57,834
Is that all you got?
148
00:08:57,876 --> 00:08:59,834
Hardly.
149
00:09:04,334 --> 00:09:06,709
How is he doing that?
150
00:09:06,751 --> 00:09:08,543
It's those smoke bombs.
151
00:09:08,584 --> 00:09:10,959
They're laced with
some sort of nanotechnology.
152
00:09:12,626 --> 00:09:14,376
Wait, I don't want to hurt you.
153
00:09:21,751 --> 00:09:25,293
Long ago, Eternia
embraced only technology.
154
00:09:27,209 --> 00:09:28,668
The ancients constructed
155
00:09:28,709 --> 00:09:30,584
massive mechanical marvels
156
00:09:30,626 --> 00:09:34,459
to combat the malevolent
forces of magic.
157
00:09:34,501 --> 00:09:37,126
For eons, they've laid dormant,
158
00:09:37,168 --> 00:09:40,001
buried deep underground
and forgotten.
159
00:09:40,043 --> 00:09:43,918
But with a little help
from Motherboard,
160
00:09:43,959 --> 00:09:48,584
Eternia's great technological
age can begin anew!
161
00:09:53,626 --> 00:09:55,584
Behold!
162
00:09:55,626 --> 00:09:59,751
One of the Techno-Titans--
a remnant from an era
163
00:09:59,793 --> 00:10:03,418
of Eternia's glorious
technological past!
164
00:10:24,293 --> 00:10:26,418
Orko, I need a hand here!
165
00:10:53,168 --> 00:10:55,084
He-Man,
how are we supposed to--
166
00:10:55,126 --> 00:10:56,376
He-Man?
167
00:11:04,043 --> 00:11:07,293
Man-at-Arms! I have a plan.
168
00:11:10,001 --> 00:11:11,751
That's far enough.
169
00:11:11,793 --> 00:11:16,251
Perhaps,
but I do so enjoy excess.
170
00:11:16,293 --> 00:11:18,459
Let him go!
171
00:11:18,501 --> 00:11:20,501
Just remember, He-Man.
172
00:11:20,543 --> 00:11:23,501
Today was but an opening salvo
173
00:11:23,543 --> 00:11:26,959
from almighty Motherboard.
174
00:11:57,876 --> 00:11:59,918
Battle Cat, bring it down.
175
00:12:07,543 --> 00:12:10,376
Orko, we need
to keep that thing still.
176
00:12:13,709 --> 00:12:15,668
Man-At-Arm,
with these modifications
177
00:12:15,709 --> 00:12:17,376
from my Gar wristband,
178
00:12:17,418 --> 00:12:19,501
we can use your blaster
to upload
179
00:12:19,543 --> 00:12:22,126
the Titan's
self-destruction sequence.
180
00:12:22,168 --> 00:12:23,834
How do you know all this?
181
00:12:23,876 --> 00:12:25,293
The Techno Titans
were developed
182
00:12:25,334 --> 00:12:27,126
from ancient Gar technology.
183
00:12:27,168 --> 00:12:28,959
You'll want to aim
for the central processor.
184
00:12:29,001 --> 00:12:30,793
It should be--
Let me guess.
185
00:12:30,834 --> 00:12:32,584
Is it the big red eyeball?
186
00:12:32,626 --> 00:12:34,168
That's the one.
187
00:12:39,168 --> 00:12:40,751
Yes, it's working!
188
00:12:40,793 --> 00:12:42,751
Keep it up.
189
00:12:42,793 --> 00:12:46,918
Guys, I don't know
how much longer I can hold him.
190
00:12:51,834 --> 00:12:53,584
The sword.
191
00:13:05,751 --> 00:13:07,084
Ah!
192
00:13:07,126 --> 00:13:08,459
Eighty-three percent.
193
00:13:08,501 --> 00:13:10,293
Just a little bit longer, Orko.
194
00:13:10,334 --> 00:13:11,293
We're almost there.
195
00:13:25,584 --> 00:13:27,793
The upload didn't complete.
196
00:13:33,168 --> 00:13:34,793
Look out!
197
00:14:01,751 --> 00:14:04,126
Andra,
we have one last shot at this.
198
00:14:04,168 --> 00:14:06,918
I'm redirecting the rest
of the self-destruct sequence
199
00:14:06,959 --> 00:14:08,126
to your blaster.
200
00:14:08,168 --> 00:14:09,668
We just need one clear shot
201
00:14:09,709 --> 00:14:12,126
to finish the upload
and bring that thing down.
202
00:14:12,168 --> 00:14:13,709
What if I miss?
203
00:14:13,751 --> 00:14:14,959
I've seen you in action.
204
00:14:15,001 --> 00:14:17,334
You're the Man-at-Arms
of Eternos.
205
00:14:17,376 --> 00:14:20,584
If anyone can make that shot,
it's you.
206
00:14:31,751 --> 00:14:32,793
Now!
207
00:14:56,459 --> 00:14:57,668
Are you all right?
208
00:15:23,959 --> 00:15:26,709
Okay, so what part
of "exile on Trolla"
209
00:15:26,751 --> 00:15:28,334
did you not understand?
210
00:15:28,376 --> 00:15:30,709
The Trollans know I'm here.
211
00:15:30,751 --> 00:15:33,251
And why are you here, Lyn?
212
00:15:33,293 --> 00:15:36,334
It seems that my tampering
with the cosmic balance
213
00:15:36,376 --> 00:15:40,043
produced some
unforeseen consequences.
214
00:15:40,084 --> 00:15:42,501
You mean Granamyr's condition--
215
00:15:42,543 --> 00:15:44,751
Is because of me, yes.
216
00:15:44,793 --> 00:15:47,793
Wait, so you're here
to, what, care for him,
217
00:15:47,834 --> 00:15:50,168
like a nurse?
218
00:15:50,209 --> 00:15:53,084
Oh, my Zoar, you are.
219
00:15:53,126 --> 00:15:55,543
Why?
It's not your concern.
220
00:15:55,584 --> 00:15:58,459
Neither is Preternia,
for that matter.
221
00:15:58,501 --> 00:16:00,418
As you can see, Lord Granamyr
222
00:16:00,459 --> 00:16:02,501
is in no condition
to grant you a kind word,
223
00:16:02,543 --> 00:16:04,959
let alone access
to snake magic.
224
00:16:05,001 --> 00:16:07,334
You're wasting your time.
225
00:16:07,376 --> 00:16:09,834
Humans...
226
00:16:09,876 --> 00:16:14,501
desirous, covetous humans.
227
00:16:14,543 --> 00:16:16,918
I did grant Ka
to your ancestors,
228
00:16:16,959 --> 00:16:20,709
and they promptly used it
to rain down war and death
229
00:16:20,751 --> 00:16:22,376
upon this world.
230
00:16:23,626 --> 00:16:26,376
I learned long ago
231
00:16:26,418 --> 00:16:31,043
that the only reliable
human trait is lust for power.
232
00:16:31,084 --> 00:16:33,918
And here you are once more,
233
00:16:33,959 --> 00:16:36,334
begging for it.
234
00:16:36,376 --> 00:16:41,001
Well, the answer is no...
235
00:16:41,043 --> 00:16:45,918
to war, to death, and to you.
236
00:16:49,834 --> 00:16:54,209
She's an even bigger
fool than you said.
237
00:16:54,251 --> 00:16:57,084
I didn't say "fool."
I said "simpleton."
238
00:16:58,334 --> 00:17:00,918
What? It's nicer.
239
00:17:03,876 --> 00:17:06,626
Preternia isn't something
I can just forget about.
240
00:17:06,668 --> 00:17:10,543
And it's your problem, too.
Especially yours.
241
00:17:10,584 --> 00:17:13,209
You know, your being here,
helping Granamyr,
242
00:17:13,251 --> 00:17:15,001
looks a lot like penance.
243
00:17:15,043 --> 00:17:16,959
I don't know
if you're working an angle
244
00:17:17,001 --> 00:17:19,168
or if you're really trying
to be better,
245
00:17:19,209 --> 00:17:22,126
but either way, what greater
amends can you make
246
00:17:22,168 --> 00:17:25,293
than to help me restore
that which you destroyed?
247
00:17:27,459 --> 00:17:30,126
The resurrection of Preternia
wouldn't just mean salvation
248
00:17:30,168 --> 00:17:32,834
for the wandering souls
of fallen champions,
249
00:17:32,876 --> 00:17:36,418
but redemption for you,
Evil-Lyn.
250
00:17:36,459 --> 00:17:37,709
Help me convince him.
251
00:17:41,293 --> 00:17:43,584
Unless you really haven't
changed at all.
252
00:17:46,584 --> 00:17:49,376
The power
of Grayskull protected me.
253
00:17:49,418 --> 00:17:51,543
So I tried sharing
a small portion
254
00:17:51,584 --> 00:17:53,209
of the power with the child,
255
00:17:53,251 --> 00:17:54,834
like I do with Cringer.
256
00:17:54,876 --> 00:17:58,501
And he was cured of this
Motherboard's techno virus.
257
00:17:58,543 --> 00:18:00,334
Great.
Then you can just point
258
00:18:00,376 --> 00:18:02,751
the sword at everyone
who's been infected.
259
00:18:02,793 --> 00:18:05,126
We have dozens of citizens
already infected.
260
00:18:05,168 --> 00:18:08,584
And with those bombs,
the virus spreads too quickly.
261
00:18:08,626 --> 00:18:11,709
You'd have to use the sword
on all of Eternia at once.
262
00:18:11,751 --> 00:18:13,334
Which is unfeasible,
263
00:18:13,376 --> 00:18:16,959
but if we can somehow
amplify its reach...
264
00:18:17,001 --> 00:18:18,501
If it's possible,
265
00:18:18,543 --> 00:18:21,376
there's only one man on Eternia
who could do it.
266
00:18:24,418 --> 00:18:27,459
Orko, I'm entrusting
the Sword of Power to you,
267
00:18:27,501 --> 00:18:28,876
old friend.
268
00:18:28,918 --> 00:18:31,293
Oh!
269
00:18:31,334 --> 00:18:33,459
By the power of--
270
00:18:33,501 --> 00:18:34,959
Orko, no!
271
00:18:35,001 --> 00:18:37,626
Just kidding.
272
00:18:37,668 --> 00:18:41,584
Though maybe this isn't
a good time to crack jokes.
273
00:18:41,626 --> 00:18:45,293
Um,
I won't let you down, He-Man.
274
00:18:45,334 --> 00:18:47,334
You never could.
275
00:18:49,834 --> 00:18:52,501
There's still time
to change your mind.
276
00:18:52,543 --> 00:18:54,543
No, this is how it has to be.
277
00:18:54,584 --> 00:18:57,709
Eternia needs a king.
Eternia needs you.
278
00:18:57,751 --> 00:19:01,334
Sword, scepter, pen, and ink--
it's all one.
279
00:19:01,376 --> 00:19:02,959
Take it from an old man.
280
00:19:03,001 --> 00:19:05,876
It's not about
what you hold in your hand,
281
00:19:05,918 --> 00:19:09,001
but what you hold
in your heart.
282
00:19:17,084 --> 00:19:19,084
{\an8}You've been awfully quiet.
283
00:19:19,126 --> 00:19:21,543
{\an8}Why waste my breath?
284
00:19:21,584 --> 00:19:23,793
{\an8}You and I have been
through enough by now
285
00:19:23,834 --> 00:19:26,543
{\an8}to read each other like books.
286
00:19:26,584 --> 00:19:29,168
{\an8}Sometimes I need to hear it.
287
00:19:29,209 --> 00:19:33,001
{\an8}This decision is yours.
288
00:19:33,043 --> 00:19:35,334
And I will follow you
and stand beside you
289
00:19:35,376 --> 00:19:37,543
in any arena you choose.
290
00:19:37,584 --> 00:19:42,501
But since it is also
my future in question,
291
00:19:42,543 --> 00:19:44,001
I suppose you should know,
292
00:19:44,043 --> 00:19:47,251
though it may surprise you
to hear it,
293
00:19:47,293 --> 00:19:51,459
that I have loved
being your Battle Cat.
294
00:19:58,751 --> 00:20:02,293
I had some real
ups and downs with my dad.
295
00:20:03,376 --> 00:20:05,459
Sons and fathers, right?
296
00:20:05,501 --> 00:20:07,543
While it's no secret
297
00:20:07,584 --> 00:20:10,668
he wanted me to follow
in his royal footsteps,
298
00:20:10,709 --> 00:20:12,793
he also felt one man
should never be
299
00:20:12,834 --> 00:20:15,376
both king and champion.
300
00:20:15,418 --> 00:20:19,251
So his passing left me
with an impossible choice...
301
00:20:19,293 --> 00:20:23,334
that is, until the return
of my uncle Keldor--
302
00:20:23,376 --> 00:20:28,376
the true and rightful heir
to Miro's throne.
303
00:20:28,418 --> 00:20:32,209
And so, with the repeal
of the outdated, cruel law
304
00:20:32,251 --> 00:20:33,751
that denied him the crown,
305
00:20:33,793 --> 00:20:36,876
I no longer face
an impossible choice.
306
00:20:36,918 --> 00:20:41,584
All of Eternos today witnessed
Keldor's bravery and ingenuity
307
00:20:41,626 --> 00:20:44,751
as he risked his life
to save countless Eternians
308
00:20:44,793 --> 00:20:46,668
from the forces of evil.
309
00:20:46,709 --> 00:20:49,126
He's proven his mettle.
310
00:20:49,168 --> 00:20:51,876
He's revealed his heart.
311
00:20:51,918 --> 00:20:55,584
And if he'll give us
a second chance...
312
00:20:57,293 --> 00:20:59,959
...I can think of no better man
to lead our people
313
00:21:00,001 --> 00:21:03,876
into the next chapter
of our great history.
314
00:21:03,918 --> 00:21:08,459
It is my honor and privilege
to present to you...
315
00:21:08,501 --> 00:21:12,751
King Keldor I!
316
00:21:12,793 --> 00:21:14,459
King Keldor!
317
00:21:35,043 --> 00:21:39,668
For the last time,
the answer is no!
318
00:21:39,709 --> 00:21:41,334
Please Lord Granamyr,
319
00:21:41,376 --> 00:21:44,251
there is no one else alive
with the power to help me.
320
00:21:44,293 --> 00:21:48,709
I promise that--
Your promises are worthless!
321
00:21:50,376 --> 00:21:53,084
So is that it, then?
322
00:21:53,126 --> 00:21:54,959
Ugh, no.
323
00:21:55,001 --> 00:21:57,084
Let me make this
painfully clear.
324
00:21:57,126 --> 00:21:59,543
You, Granamyr,
are as good as dead.
325
00:21:59,584 --> 00:22:02,084
Save your treacherous breath.
326
00:22:02,126 --> 00:22:05,459
I've already made peace
with the fact that my soul
327
00:22:05,501 --> 00:22:10,418
shall wander time and space
untethered
328
00:22:10,459 --> 00:22:14,126
and then fade.
329
00:22:14,168 --> 00:22:16,376
Wander and fade?
330
00:22:16,418 --> 00:22:18,126
Your soul?
331
00:22:18,168 --> 00:22:21,334
The soul of one whose
legendarily disastrous judgment
332
00:22:21,376 --> 00:22:23,168
led to the bloodiest wars
this world--
333
00:22:23,209 --> 00:22:26,209
perhaps this universe--
has ever seen?
334
00:22:26,251 --> 00:22:28,834
You spent centuries
hating humans,
335
00:22:28,876 --> 00:22:30,959
blaming them for your mistake.
336
00:22:31,001 --> 00:22:32,834
Yes, they abused their power,
337
00:22:32,876 --> 00:22:35,209
but it was a power
that you gave them.
338
00:22:35,251 --> 00:22:37,293
Did you really think
that you could heal yourself
339
00:22:37,334 --> 00:22:38,751
of that responsibility
340
00:22:38,793 --> 00:22:42,084
by hiding in a cave
and hoping for the best?
341
00:22:42,126 --> 00:22:44,793
I didn't come here
to help ease your passing
342
00:22:44,834 --> 00:22:47,293
because I enjoy the smell
of rotting dragon flesh
343
00:22:47,334 --> 00:22:48,793
and childish bravado.
344
00:22:48,834 --> 00:22:51,793
I came to earn my absolution,
345
00:22:51,834 --> 00:22:54,501
lest my foul crimes pave
the way to an eternity
346
00:22:54,543 --> 00:22:57,334
of hellish torment
in Subternia.
347
00:22:57,376 --> 00:23:00,709
That is what awaits us both.
348
00:23:00,751 --> 00:23:02,334
It is arrogance unabated
349
00:23:02,376 --> 00:23:05,584
to assume the soul
of Granamyr the Monstrous
350
00:23:05,626 --> 00:23:09,043
would not face untold horrors
of a measure equal to mine.
351
00:23:09,084 --> 00:23:10,959
But...
352
00:23:11,001 --> 00:23:13,709
we have a chance, you and I.
353
00:23:13,751 --> 00:23:15,751
If the new sorceress
of Grayskull
354
00:23:15,793 --> 00:23:18,959
can, with our help, resurrect
the afterlife dimension,
355
00:23:19,001 --> 00:23:22,126
then, perhaps,
it could still hold a place
356
00:23:22,168 --> 00:23:24,709
for the likes of you and me.
357
00:23:24,751 --> 00:23:28,501
The universe isn't finished
with you yet, either of you.
358
00:23:28,543 --> 00:23:31,376
There's still time to do
something good.
359
00:23:40,459 --> 00:23:43,334
What's happening? Did it work?
Are you gonna help?
360
00:23:43,376 --> 00:23:44,959
First, a riddle.
361
00:23:45,001 --> 00:23:47,001
There's always a damn riddle.
362
00:23:47,043 --> 00:23:50,709
Mm, an appropriate one,
at that.
363
00:23:50,751 --> 00:23:53,751
A paradox that's blind
364
00:23:53,793 --> 00:23:56,793
to mage and king in kind.
365
00:23:56,834 --> 00:23:59,959
Unlike the snake,
the more you take,
366
00:24:00,001 --> 00:24:03,084
the more you leave behind.
367
00:24:03,126 --> 00:24:05,418
{\an8}What is it?
368
00:24:05,459 --> 00:24:08,001
Oh, obviously, power.
369
00:24:08,043 --> 00:24:09,959
No, not power.
370
00:24:10,001 --> 00:24:12,959
The more you take,
the more you leave behind.
371
00:24:13,001 --> 00:24:14,876
The answer's footsteps.
372
00:24:14,918 --> 00:24:16,709
Ah...
373
00:24:16,751 --> 00:24:20,501
perhaps you are ready.
374
00:24:20,543 --> 00:24:22,709
The staff's but a conduit.
375
00:24:22,751 --> 00:24:24,501
She'll need training
376
00:24:24,543 --> 00:24:28,043
in calm and havoc.
377
00:24:28,084 --> 00:24:30,001
Leave that to me.
378
00:25:21,501 --> 00:25:23,709
It was the perfect gambit.
379
00:25:23,751 --> 00:25:27,001
The hapless fools
suspected nothing.
380
00:25:27,043 --> 00:25:31,126
And now each piece
is in its place--
381
00:25:31,168 --> 00:25:34,376
pawns, knights...
382
00:25:36,126 --> 00:25:38,959
Queen...
383
00:25:39,001 --> 00:25:41,168
and king.
384
00:25:44,418 --> 00:25:46,543
Speak of the devil.
385
00:25:46,584 --> 00:25:49,751
Oh, my exalted one.
386
00:25:49,793 --> 00:25:53,334
I am certain you mean devil...
387
00:25:53,376 --> 00:25:55,918
in disguise.
388
00:25:55,959 --> 00:26:00,126
Long live the king.
