Enchanted Castle

She-Ra, She-Ra ♪
I am Adora,
He-Man's twin sister
and defender
of the Crystal Castle.
This is Spirit,
my beloved steed.
Fabulous secrets
were revealed to me
the day I held aloft my sword
and said
"For the honor of Grayskull!"
She-Ra, She-Ra ♪
She-Ra ♪
She-Ra, She-Ra ♪
I am She-Ra!
Only a few others
share this secret.
Among them are Light Hope,
Madame Razz, and Kowl.
Together, we and my friends
of the Great Rebellion
strive to free Etheria
from the evil forces of Hordak.
She-Ra♪
She-Ra ♪
Please, everyone,
have your fill.
There is plenty of food for all.
What's this party
all about, anyway?
Don't you know?
We're celebrating the time
Mystacor was freed
from an evil power.
An evil power?
Well, it all started
when Spirit and I were riding
down a country road.
I was on my way
back to Whispering Woods
when I heard
the most beautiful music.
It's Bow.
I should have known.
Uh-oh, Hordesmen.
We'd better see
what they're up to.
You sure that's him?
Yeah, they say one of the Rebels
plays music.
It must be him.
Then let's grab him.
Hordak will be pleased.
Besides, I hate music.
Me too.
You know, Spirit,
it's too nice a day
to let Hordak's henchmen
ruin it for Bow.
Hmm, maybe we should teach them
a little music appreciation.
I'd love to teach them
a lesson they won't forget.
For the honor of Grayskull!
She-Ra, She-Ra ♪
She-Ra ♪
I am She-Ra!
What are we waiting for?
Come on, let's get him now.
Sorry, fellas,
but your little performance
has just been canceled.
It's She-Ra!
Wherewhere are you taking us?
Since your feeling about music
seems pretty narrow,
I thought I'd give you
a broader look at the world,
kind of a bird's-eye view.
Don't drop us.
I'll try not to.
Everybody off.
Have a nice slide home, fellas.
We'll show her.
As soon as we get back
to our tank,
we'll show her up.
Oh, no, we won't.
Look.
I thought you'd be lonesome
without your tank.
Give my regards to Hordak.
Oh, how are we going
to explain this to Hordak?
Uh, how are we
going to get down?
She-Ra ♪
Ah, thank you.
Thank you, my friends.
Your applause
is much appreciated.
That was a very lovely melody,
Bow.
Adora, what are you
doing out here?
I'm on my way
back to Whispering Woods.
So am I.
Why don't we travel together?
The road does lead through
the Dark Forest of Mystacor.
You'll be better off
to have a man with you.
Oh, thank you.
I'll feel much safer with you.
And so you should.
Bow and I rode
toward the Dark Forest,
unaware
of the strange adventure
which lay just ahead of us.
Did you hear that?
It's coming from over there.
She must have slipped
over the edge of the gully.
Just lie quietly.
We'll have you out of there
in a minute.
I'll have Spirit pull
while you help the woman.
- Ready?
- Pull away.
Can you stand?
Oh, yes, I'm fine
and most grateful.
I wish I could return the favor,
but I am a poor old woman.
Your thanks are more
than enough payment.
There is one thing
I can offer you: a warning.
Be most careful
as you continue on this path.
The Dark Forest can be
an evil and dangerous place
for innocent travelers.
We thank you for the advice.
And we wish you
a safe journey too.
Well, the old woman was right.
The forest became darker
and more threatening
every step of the way.
Danger seemed to lurk
behind every tree.
And then, suddenly
Take them.
That's what you think.
Let's go, Adora.
Take them to the castle.
Have you ever been here before?
I never knew this place
even existed.
Quiet!
The inside of the castle
was filled
with dark enchantment.
Whoever lived in it
had very evil powers.
What have you brought me?
We took these two
in the forest, Mistress.
They'll make fine
Who are you?
And why have we
been brought here?
Silence!
I am Mortella,
mistress of this castle
and the most powerful sorceress
in the realm.
You are here
because I require more slaves.
Slaves?
I said silence!
Your slave task will be
to keep the fire
burning brightly.
It must never, ever burn low.
Never!
If it does, you will be sorry.
Very, very sorry.
Now, I will personally
see you both
placed in the dungeon
until I need you.
The pit has no bottom.
So think twice
before you try to cross it.
Forces of magic, hear me well.
Take these two inside that cell.
Try not to get too comfortable.
I'll be back for you soon.
So you and Bow were locked
in a dungeon
behind a bottomless pit,
and you didn't have your sword.
How did you get away?
Patience, Kowl.
We tried to work out a plan,
but nothing seemed to work.
These bars are too strong
to try to loosen.
I'm afraid that
Bow.
Look!
It's the woman we rescued.
Hello, over here!
She saw us.
What do you suppose she's doing
around a place like this?
I don't know.
But she's coming
inside the castle.
And this, my lady, this,
this is ground from the root
of the magicka tree.
It is well-suited
for sleeping potions.
Excellent.
I'll take those.
And I want
the transformation powders too.
As you wish.
Your herbs have been
very useful.
Make sure you bring more
before the month is out.
But don't you ever try
to leave Dark Forest.
Remember,
my power will find you.
Now leave me.
I have more important matters
to attend to.
Yes, thank you, my lady.
My friends
your kindness
has not been forgotten.
I've come to help you.
But what can you do?
The pit is bottomless,
and we're behind bars.
Oh, I might be able
to do something.
Thank you.
You certainly have
a few surprises to offer.
Oh, you must leave this place
as quickly as you can.
Get out of Mystacor.
But we can't get across the pit
the way you can.
No, you can't.
What are those, cards?
Yes, I use them for tricks
in the magic shows I do.
Give them to me, please.
Well, now, that's some trick.
I don't suppose you'd
show me how to do that.
Follow me, and hurry.
After you, Adora.
Thank you, I think.
She-Ra ♪
This way.
Someone's coming.
Quick, behind the throne, hide.
The fire needs tending.
You fools!
You know
that it must never go out!
Why must she
keep the fire burning?
It is the source
of Mortella's power.
She even conjured up her knights
out of the magic flames.
The fire has allowed her to rule
these many years.
Bow, let's split up.
We'll lead them away.
Stay here. You'll be safe.
Seize them!
For the honor of Grayskull!
She-Ra, She-Ra ♪
She-Ra ♪
I am She-Ra!
Wow!
Those knights aren't real.
Magic, evil magic.
Obviously I'm the only one
who can handle this.
Three against one
doesn't seem very fair to me.
Who are you?
How dare you trespass here?
I am She-Ra,
and I don't like the way
you're treating my friend.
How about a game
of follow the leader?
You two, get her!
It's time to turn the tables
on these two.
Fools!
This will freeze you
where you stand.
You will pay for this outrage.
I'd better put out
that magic fire
before she frees herself.
I'll teach those fools
to toy with me.
As the fire grows higher,
my power increases.
No, Mortella.
Your evil reign cannot continue.
I'll stop you, once and for all.
You dare to challenge me?
I thought you'd learned
your lesson.
She-Ra.
I slipped away while you were
checkmating those knights.
We've got to do something
to stop Mortella
before she whips up
another spell.
I'm working on it.
And that drawbridge
is going to help me.
Drawbridge?
Stand back.
Yah!
What now?
We cross over.
Can you get a line
to that tree over there?
Easy as bibble pie.
This should drive the moat water
right into the castle.
That takes care of you.
Now I'll deal
with your friends.
No, no.
No!
Oh, my power.
My wonderful power.
It's gone, gone, gone.
The fire's out.
And look.
My true form returns.
Mortella's spell is lifted,
and it's all thanks to you two.
Oh, thank you, my friends.
Butbut who are you?
I am Castaspella,
true queen of Mystacor.
And now that I have returned,
let my kingdom be as it was
once more.
And that's the story, Kowl.
And that's
why we're celebrating.
That's a wonderful story.
I've always liked happy endings.
Adora, it's getting warm
in here.
How about you and I
taking a walk?
I could use some water.
Some water for Bow,
if you please.
No, please
Sorry, Kowl.
I forgot to ask for a glass.
You have to say
exactly what you mean
around Castaspella's
magic castle.
Hi, well, here I am again.
Did you find
where I was hiding today?
If not, here's another chance.
See me now?
Here I am.
In today's exciting adventure,
Bow and Adora
helped a woman in trouble.
By coming to her rescue,
they did an act of kindness.
That kindness came back to them
when they were in trouble.
As Adora said,
kindness is repaid
with kindness.
