1 Chapter 10 - "The Unknown" Oh! Huh? - Greg? - Did you fetch for me - the Golden comb? - Will that work? - This is a honeycomb.
- Golden comb of honey.
Greg! Oh! Oh! - Gre-e-g! - Huh? Never mind that, Gregory.
You've brought me the first two items a golden comb and a spool of silver thread.
It's just spider web on a stick.
- Now I want the sun.
- The sun? Here.
Lower the sun out of the sky - and into this China cup.
- Uh, well, that sounds impossible.
Anything is possible if you set your mind to it, right? But hurry, the sun will - be setting soon, and - Hey, yeah, that's it.
Duh dih-dunh dunh-dunh din-dunh duh din-din dunh See, that old sun's going right down into this old cup.
You have figured it out, and I thought you might give up.
Give up? I'll never give up.
Just got to wait, just got to wait.
Yes, just sit there in the cold and wait.
Huh? - Ohh.
- What the - Ohh.
Ohh.
- Beatrice? - Wirt! - Beatrice! - What are you doing out here?! - I saw Greg! - What?! - I saw Greg.
He was w-with someone.
This way! - Or wait.
Um - Beatrice, you should go home.
I can't not yet.
Not until Greg is safe.
- Okay.
- We should hurry.
- I I think it was that way.
- Thank you, Beatrice.
Ohh.
Here! Edelwood! You see? This will give us some oil, won't it? Yes, we'll keep that light of yours shining, won't we? Come on.
Ohh! Aw! You Oh! Oh! darkness there is a light for the lost and the meek hard woe and fear are easily forgotten when you submit to the soil of the Earth Woodsman, I knew you would come.
I have something for you.
Oh! Oh! What have you done?! Why, I've given you another edelwood.
- No!! - He will burn nicely in the lantern.
No! I won't do this! You've been grinding up lost souls for years.
I didn't know! I didn't know this is where the edelwood trees came from! And would it have mattered? Would you have just let your daughter's spirit burn out forever? Feed the lantern.
- No.
- I suppose, after all these years, you just don't care for her anymore.
Hold your tongue, or I'll remove it from your mouth! Do not speak of my daughter.
She would not wish this.
- Let's get you free.
- Ahh.
No.
I only wish to help you, woodsman.
You need oil, - or else your daughter will - I told you to hold your tongue! Greg? - Greg! - I thought it was this way.
- A light.
- A lantern.
It looks like the woodsman's.
- Whoa.
What happened here? - Greg! Greg! Are you - Wirt? - Oh, Greg! Wirt, I did it.
I beat the beast.
Aw, geez, the leaves are even - growing inside of him.
- No.
I was just eating leaves.
I'm sorry, Wirt.
No, no, Greg.
It's my fault we ended up here.
Everything's been my fault.
- I-I should have been more - No, I mean - my rock facts rock.
- What? I I stole it, Wirt.
I stole it from Mrs.
Daniel's garden.
I'm a stealer.
- And that's a rock fact.
- What? - No, Greg, that doesn't matter.
- It does matter.
You have to return it for me, okay? No, you can give it to her yourself.
Come on, we got to get Jason Funderberker home, right? Jason Funderberker the perfect frog name.
- Greg? Greg?! - Let's get him out of this! Come on! Yeah.
Yeah - Come on! - It's gonna be fine, Wirt.
Give me my lantern.
- Your lantern? - No way.
We need this thing.
Yeah, I'm keeping this.
I have to get Greg home.
Your brother is too weak to go home.
He will soon become part of my forest.
- I won't let that happen! - Well, then, perhaps we - better make a deal.
- Deal? - Ohh.
- I can put his spirit in the lantern.
As long as the flame stays lit, he will live on inside.
Take on the task of lantern bearer or watch your brother perish.
Come here.
- Okay.
- Wirt! Wait.
That's dumb.
- What? - That's dumb.
I'm not just gonna just wander around in the woods - for the rest of my life.
- I'm trying to help you.
You're not trying to help me.
You just have some weird obsession with keeping this lantern lit.
I-It's almost like your soul is in this lantern.
Are you ready to see true darkness? Are y Are you? Don't! Don't! Here, woodsman.
I've got my own problems to take care of.

- What?! - The scissors that'll make - your family human again.
- You had them all along?! I-I used them to escape Adelaide, and then then Yeah, I-I was sort of mad at you.
Oh, you wonderful mistake of nature! You see, woodsman? All who perish here will become trees for the lantern.
Cut them down with your ax.
Go! Now! No! Stop! You'll never see your daughter again, woodsman.
