[Aaravos]
Previously on The Dragon Prince
[Astrid] So that's Aaravos's plan.
He's coming here to take the sun orb
- and
- [Janai] Kill the Sun.
We can't protect the sun orb from Aaravos,
but maybe we can destroy it.
Only one person
among all the Sunfire elves can do this.
[Callum] We're gathering the archdragons.
If the archdragons can hold Aaravos down
for just a few seconds,
I can use ocean magic to imprison him
in the new Pearl forever.
When your ancestor died,
the blade was lost to history.
She took its secret to her grave.
[necromage] Your Majesty.
[roars]
[theme music playing]
[theme music continues]
[dramatic music playing]
[Karim] There it is! The Sunforge.
[gasps]
It's swarming with monsters
Karim must destroy the sun orb now,
or we will be too late.
Aaravos will be here by sunrise.
It is nearly dawn.
Get me to the orb
and keep those creatures away from me.
I will do the rest.
Remember, once the spell is cast,
we will have only one minute to escape
before the blast destroys Lux Aurea
and everything in it.
Missilem ignem!
[growls]
[grunts]
[growls]
Stella ignis!
Karim, go!
[monsters growling]
We can't hold them back for long.
Do it, Karim.
Inferi. Ruptura
[humming]
Karim!
The spell. Light the last rune!
[earth rumbles]
What are you doing, Karim?
[dramatic music playing]
The titan!
He's coming!
Yes. He is coming.
You scheming traitor!
You would betray us again? Now?
Destroy the orb, Karim! Or I'll
Or you'll what, sister?
Kill me?
I am your only hope.
Kill me and you doom the sun herself!
Lux tormento!
I am Karim,
true and rightful king of Lux Aurea,
the greatest fire mage in all of Xadia.
Great One, before you make another move,
look upon your prize.
With a single word
I can trigger the final rune,
and destroy the sun orb,
and all your plans with it.
But it need not come to that.
All I ask is that you hear me out.
We both see what this world has become.
We once had great order,
and now there is only chaos.
[dramatic music playing]
If the world must burn to be reborn,
so be it!
Let me be your flame!
Together, Great One, we can
[screams]
[Astrid] Go! We have to go.
[dramatic music playing]
[growls, grumbles]
- [panting]
- [grunts]
- [roars]
- [screams]
[grumbles, growls]
[sniffs]
[roars]
[howls]
Zym, no!
[growling]
- [sizzles]
- [growls]
[howls]
The sun's up
we should be safe.
For now.
I'm sorry.
I'm so useless.
I'm so weak.
But if I can't do anything to help,
Callum will do something terrible
[sniffs]
[coos]
Wait
Aaravos.
He gave me the answer.
He told me how to stop him.
He hid a secret in his words.
We don't have much time.
Follow me.
The stars have never smiled
upon their creations.
This is a world made
by cruel, unfeeling hands.
[dramatic music playing]
It is an instrument of pain,
of torment.
To exist within this world is to suffer.
Even death is no reprieve.
Let the vengeful blacken the skies.
Let there be dark!
[earth rumbles]
[dramatic music playing]
[roars]
Rex Igneous!
It has been too long!
[snarls] Not long enough, betrayer.
[snarls]
[roars]
What is this?
A mere human?
- [Aaravos] She is no ordinary human.
- [grunts]
She is the most powerful dark mage
in all of Xadia.
My only light in this world.
[dramatic music playing]
[chanting]
[dramatic music playing]
What's happening?
Aaravos' plan.
Eternal night.
Who is she?
[Ezran] My ancestor.
The Orphan Queen.
She stood up to Aaravos a long time ago,
she helped imprison him,
and she had a secret
that she took to her grave.
That's what Aaravos told me.
He's so arrogant
that he didn't think I'd see it.
She didn't just take
the secret to her grave,
she took the blade itself.
That's a real sword!
It's the Novablade.
The one weapon
that can kill a Startouch elf.
We have to stop him.
[dreadful music playing]
[snarling]

[Rex Igneous grunts]
[screams]
[Rex Igneous roars]
- [snarling]
- [grunting]
[thunder rumbles]
You're fond of gifts,
aren't you, Archdragon?
[rumbles]
- [thunder rumbling intensifies]
- [Rex Igneous roars]
I have a gift for you.
A reunion with an old friend.
[roars]
[gasping]
[Rex Igneous]
Avizandum, the great King of the Dragons.
[snarls]
What has he done to you?
Come now, Thunder.
Nothing to say
for yourself after all these years?
[snarls]
I can't tell what's happening down there.
Is that Rex Igneous?
No, wait, that's impossible!
You only ever really spoke
one language, didn't you?
[roars]
Avizandum!
[Soren] Zubeia, no!
Wait!
Pyrrah, we have to follow her!
No! It's too dangerous!
The storm, the monsters,
we have to regroup!
Look at you!
Reduced to this!
The puppet of a Great One!
[both roars]
You were the mightiest of us, Avizandum.
You were king!
[Zubeia] Stop!
Zubeia.
- [growls]
- [roars]
No!
- [snaps]
- [roars]
[gasps] No.
[roars]
[owl griffon screeches]
What's happening?
Karim betrayed us.
And now he's dead.
Then the sun orb Aaravos already has it.
And this is eternal night!
What do we do now?
Everything depends on Callum.
He'll be here soon with a new Pearl,
and we'll imprison Aaravos.
[dramatic music playing]
[gasps] Avizandum, it's me, Zubeia.
Are you still there, my beloved?
Can you hear my voice?
[roars]
[gasp] Please!
I don't want to fight you!
Find yourself, remember who you are!
Remember me!
[laughing]
Are you watching?
Claudia's out there somewhere.
She has to be.
We have to find her.
You and I, maybe there's still
a chance we can save her.
She's gone too far.
We can't save her.
We have to stop her.
Soren, you promised.
I know what I sap swore,
but look what's happening.
You have to let me break
my promise, Terry.
[Rayla] Here!
Callum! Runaan! We're here!
You've done well.
[sneezes]
You made it!
I'm here.
Thank you for protecting him.
He has a good heart.
He will do whatever it takes
to protect this world
and so shall we.
So you got it? The pearl?
Rayla, things didn't go
exactly as we expected, and
Well, the truth is
Complicated,
but we have what we need.
[melancholy music playing]
We're ready.
We can imprison him.
We just have to get up there.
Callum. There's one more thing.
Something else my brother said.
- Another prophecy?
- Maybe.
They might not all be true.
I I didn't even want to say it, Callum,
but I thought you should know
Just tell me.
When the hour turns black,
one with dark eyes will save us all
and choose his own end.
I know what it means.
[serious music playing]
We have to get to the top of that tower.
No matter what.
We can do this.
We've come this far.
No turning back.
For Lux Aurea
and for Katolis.
For all of Xadia.
[heroic music playing]
Let's go.
[howls]
[Janai grunts]
[roars]
[screams]
[screaming]
[suspenseful music playing]
[snarls]
[grumbles]
[roars]
[roars]
Oh, what a crowd I've gathered.
Now, this is familiar, isn't it?
Hasn't this all happened before?
Arrogant fools.
Again and again
you make the same mistakes.
You know how this goes.
Go on! Kill me!
You'll be destroying yourselves,
and everyone you love.
And as for me, you will merely send me
back to the heavens.
You know it is futile.
In seven years and nineteen days,
my stars will align,
and I shall return.
You cannot win!
[Callum] We can win.
There is a way.
[pensive music playing]
There you are.
I wondered when you'd show your face.
And what could you possibly hope
to do against me, little mage?
I'm gonna end this.
I'm gonna imprison you, once and for all.
I do not fall for the same tricks twice.
Claudia made certain the old sea witch
could not interfere this time.
[dramatic music plays]
[sarcastically] Oh, no! Dark magic?
Whatever shall I do?
[laughs]
This is your plan?
It is futile and you know it.
The moment you cast the spell,
you are mine.
Your body will become my vessel,
and I shall have my vengeance
on this world by your hands.
[Callum] I know.
That's why I have a way out.
The moment the spell is complete
a Moonshadow assassin promised to kill me.
What? No.
So the hero chooses to die
for the greater good.
How very selfless.
But I'm afraid
you've misjudged your would-be slayer.
Your beloved is an assassin
who cannot kill.
No. Not Rayla.
[suspenseful music playing]
No! He can't!
No! Callum, no!
The second it's done, he'll kill me.
You won't have anywhere to go.
No vessel to control.
You'll be trapped again, forever.
[snarls]
That's the destiny I choose.
The one I write for myself!
