So while hypothetically the 165 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 1: nomad's tears could be the source of the world salty 166 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:52,800 Speaker 1: oceans and seas, how do you account for the formation 167 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:56,120 Speaker 1: of fresh bodies of water? Yeah? And why would the 168 00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 1: nomads leave so soon from an oasis they were trying 169 00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:00,480 Speaker 1: so hard to find in the first place. To explain 170 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 1: that serious no care serious no in hart story true, 171 00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:09,160 Speaker 1: I don't see how you can argue with that logic. Logic, 172 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:13,680 Speaker 1: what logic? It's missing every component of a sound logical argument. 173 00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:18,960 Speaker 1: You know, have better greater story, Actually I do. While 174 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 1: you were carrying on about the Cyrisian legend. I noticed 175 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 1: the marking on the southern perimeter. Follow me, take a 176 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 1: look at this. What is it? Shure animal in rock? Close? 177 00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 1: It's a fossil. I've never observed anything quite like it before, 178 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 1: but it appears to be the imprint of a prehistoric creature, 179 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:44,600 Speaker 1: degraded over time by weathering and erosion. What's strange is 180 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:47,400 Speaker 1: that it looks more like a stained outline than an impression. 181 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 1: But I don't know what other than a fossil could 182 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:54,080 Speaker 1: result in this mark on the surface's exterior. Serious never 183 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:58,480 Speaker 1: see animal like that before. Technically, if you have, what 184 00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 1: do you mean? Well, the impression looks like an amalgamation 185 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:07,960 Speaker 1: of organic constructs. This can happen during diagenesis. Diagenesis the 186 00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:11,480 Speaker 1: physical and chemical changes exhibited in rocks as a result 187 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:14,840 Speaker 1: of exposure to extreme temperatures and pressure. It can preserve 188 00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:19,000 Speaker 1: an impression, but often distorts the figure. So what well? 189 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:20,840 Speaker 1: At first, I wasn't sure what to make of this. 190 00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:24,679 Speaker 1: It could be a combination of creatures, an ancient ancestor, 191 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:28,320 Speaker 1: or even the missing link between serious and modern man. 192 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:31,320 Speaker 1: But the more I thought about it, the more it 193 00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:34,120 Speaker 1: became clear. To me that the fossil source could only 194 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:40,280 Speaker 1: be one thing, the contour Quava. The contour Quava. It 195 00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:43,640 Speaker 1: lives deep below the surface and is unlike any other 196 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,160 Speaker 1: creature known to us. It has the head of a fawn, 197 00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:50,600 Speaker 1: body of a person, and stands upright on goatlike hind legs, 198 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 1: moving swiftly with the poisoned grace of a ballerina that 199 00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:58,919 Speaker 1: sounds like a hoax. There are countless purported sightings and 200 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 1: alleged accounts to support the existence of this majestic creature, 201 00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 1: though unfortunately none of the evidence is thus far verifiable. 202 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:08,199 Speaker 1: But that doesn't mean it's not true. Serious light to 203 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 1: meet contour Quava. No, you wouldn't. The contour Quava is 204 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:19,200 Speaker 1: a hideous beast. It has alien like ruby red slits 205 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:23,359 Speaker 1: for eyes, a serpent tongue that's always hissing and clicking 206 00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:27,320 Speaker 1: as it scans for prey, and twin serrated antlers atop 207 00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:30,199 Speaker 1: its head the size of anvils. They scrape against the 208 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:34,960 Speaker 1: cave ceiling as it walks. Six golden spikelike books line 209 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:39,000 Speaker 1: its back, and it has cloven hooves for feet. Oh 210 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:41,719 Speaker 1: and did I mention the spiral mark on its forehead? 211 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:46,440 Speaker 1: That glows crimson red in the dark. Log stop, you're 212 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:50,080 Speaker 1: scaring serious. The contour Aquava's appearance is the last thing 213 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:54,840 Speaker 1: he should be afraid of. It's nothing compared to its voice. 214 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 1: The contra Quava's voice is said to possess a magical 215 00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:01,480 Speaker 1: quality when it opens its those who hear its call 216 00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:05,160 Speaker 1: fall under a trance like state as they're hypnotized by 217 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:10,760 Speaker 1: its ballerina tippy toe dance. Hidden in the notes of 218 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 1: its siren song are believed to be the truth to 219 00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:17,840 Speaker 1: all the world's secrets. That's ridiculous. And I thought you 220 00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 1: said it lives underground. Why wouldn't have been down here 221 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 1: in this crater. It must have been uncovered during a 222 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:26,480 Speaker 1: mining expedition, which brings me to the only logical conclusion 223 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:30,040 Speaker 1: as to the crater's origin. This crater we're standing in 224 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:33,880 Speaker 1: is all that remains of an open pit mine mining. 225 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:39,040 Speaker 1: What exactly desert diamonds, sandstones, black opal and I'm afraid 226 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:51,520 Speaker 1: they dug too deep. Drill hit a snag again. Warman 227 00:19:51,560 --> 00:20:01,680 Speaker 1: Stone's not going to be happy, bottle Stone. The drill 228 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 1: must have caught on something could be opals. Why did 229 00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:08,560 Speaker 1: you say the black of the better get the digging 230 00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:19,280 Speaker 1: Sapphire Lazily, give me a hand here, sure thing, Amber Sapphire, 231 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:28,120 Speaker 1: got your pickaxe already? Headye, Captain Amber Lasily aloud clear 232 00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 1: the debris. It's not oples it's a hole. No an 233 00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 1: entrance too bad at least four and Stone can't say 234 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:46,159 Speaker 1: we didn't try. Yeah, No use fooling around here and 235 00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 1: getting ourselves hurt or in trouble. Ladies, We're not going anywhere. 236 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 1: We've just hit pay dirt. Amber, slow down. We can't 237 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 1: go in there. There's no telling how deep the hole 238 00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:02,400 Speaker 1: goes or what's even down there exactly. The potential's unlimited. 239 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:11,240 Speaker 1: That's the best part. Come on, Or had to go 240 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 1: down the hall. She just had to go down the hall. 241 00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 1: We might find something valuable down there. Besides, can't let 242 00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:35,440 Speaker 1: Amber go alone regretless? Right, where are you? Okay, get 243 00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 1: back here and get me those shappy Lazily got a 244 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:48,440 Speaker 1: match for my lantern here, one for yours and one 245 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 1: for mine. At least I always travel prepared. What was 246 00:21:56,280 --> 00:22:00,359 Speaker 1: that I heard something hiss? You? Probably just to match you? Thanks? 247 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 1: Whoa check it out? Okay, painting, I'm just some drawn 248 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:15,480 Speaker 1: ages ago by early man. Just think of the answers 249 00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:18,960 Speaker 1: to life's greatest mysteries. We'll find out here, untouched by 250 00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:22,959 Speaker 1: modern hands and just waiting to be discovered. I've never 251 00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:27,400 Speaker 1: seen such exquisite detail captured in painting before. You can 252 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:30,320 Speaker 1: make out the sheer awe on each person's face as 253 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:35,440 Speaker 1: they run towards that haven in the light. Good. What's 254 00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:41,480 Speaker 1: that thing they're running from? Whatever it is? Ship True's 255 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:46,560 Speaker 1: hugly looks deformed, must be their own version of form 256 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 1: and stone central tone branches off in the discrete past 257 00:22:56,760 --> 00:23:00,960 Speaker 1: like an underground lab. You know. Being down violates all 258 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:04,919 Speaker 1: mining safety protocol which are put into place to protect 259 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:08,879 Speaker 1: us from ending up in situations precisely like this, and 260 00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 1: we're breaking them voluntarily of our own volition. We've just 261 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:17,879 Speaker 1: discovered and as of yet unknown underground world full of 262 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 1: untold treasures, hidden knowledge, buried secrets, forgotten truths lost to time. 263 00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:29,600 Speaker 1: Turn back if you want, I'm forging forward as right 264 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:37,040 Speaker 1: be the side of a lifetime. Fine, at least let's 265 00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:59,160 Speaker 1: stay together this way. I heard something lazily quick complaining 266 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:02,960 Speaker 1: which try to at least enjoy the adventure. But I 267 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:14,200 Speaker 1: wasn't saying anything sapphire me neither. Then? Who is the 268 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:17,240 Speaker 1: words seem to float through the air and rush past 269 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:20,359 Speaker 1: us like wind. Whoever speaking must be up ahead. Sh 270 00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:31,560 Speaker 1: I've heard about this phenomenon before. Phantom whispers. Phantom whispers, 271 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:35,840 Speaker 1: they're fragments of words from conversation spoken hundreds of years 272 00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:39,119 Speaker 1: ago by the ancients who dwelled here. The acoustics of 273 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:42,359 Speaker 1: these caves have preserved their sound as echoes and trapping 274 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:45,240 Speaker 1: them in time from the bottom of this cavern where 275 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:49,040 Speaker 1: they lived. Slowly over the centuries, their words rise up 276 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:52,080 Speaker 1: through the tunnels to reach the surface, similar to how 277 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:54,639 Speaker 1: light from stars that died millions of years ago is 278 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:57,879 Speaker 1: just reaching us now. And do you know what that means? 279 00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:02,840 Speaker 1: That we're easy dropping on ancient civilizations. And I'm pretty 280 00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:06,440 Speaker 1: sure they wouldn't be happy about this. That as we 281 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:09,880 Speaker 1: descend deeper into the bowels, it's like we're traveling back 282 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:13,960 Speaker 1: in time itself. If we can puzzle together a full transmission, 283 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:17,440 Speaker 1: who knows what secrets of the universe will unravel. We 284 00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 1: have to keep going, We have to reach the source tremors. 285 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:30,439 Speaker 1: We've gone too deep. We have to go back now, 286 00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 1: for it's too late. What it's what I can't I 287 00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:58,040 Speaker 1: can't it's fun. Attention, its foment arms. What are we waiting? 288 00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:05,440 Speaker 1: I don't leave the glowing mark of the crimson spiral 289 00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:40,440 Speaker 1: on its forehead, the contra que buff it's real. I 290 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:44,480 Speaker 1: have to follow it. I have to learn the secrets 291 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:47,719 Speaker 1: of its song. If you taste that thing into the abyss, 292 00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:52,280 Speaker 1: you'll only lose yourself. She's right, you can have my 293 00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:54,879 Speaker 1: share of the opals one. We're done with the job. Please, 294 00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:59,119 Speaker 1: let's just turned back. It's not adopt the opals. It 295 00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:03,440 Speaker 1: was never about the opals. Don't you understand. We're at 296 00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:05,879 Speaker 1: the precipice of all that is known and all that 297 00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:09,520 Speaker 1: is hidden. The monumental truths that we stand to uncover 298 00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:13,359 Speaker 1: will bring forth a new era of enlightenment and forever 299 00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:16,560 Speaker 1: change the course of life as it stands. I have 300 00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:24,919 Speaker 1: to go after it ever lively. Go to the service 301 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:28,640 Speaker 1: and get out. I'll track down am No way forget prtocol. 302 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:39,360 Speaker 1: We'll find her together. Okay, where to go? She could 303 00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:52,400 Speaker 1: have disappear down any one of these tunnels. This way 304 00:27:52,680 --> 00:28:21,280 Speaker 1: we have to go. We sealed off from her, managed 305 00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 1: to clear a path in the rocks. Amber won't last 306 00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:25,160 Speaker 1: the night. On the other side of this Caden. That's 307 00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:29,520 Speaker 1: if she's even still alive. Don't talk like that. You're 308 00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 1: not giving up at her all that. Ever, we'll get 309 00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 1: you out, even if it takes us all night. We 310 00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:42,160 Speaker 1: won't stop until no stone is left a drunk Sapphire, 311 00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:47,680 Speaker 1: help me clear some box. You have to create a 312 00:28:47,720 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 1: passage for airflow. What we're not meant to know? Me 313 00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:10,120 Speaker 1: some secrets of the universe are getting open and not 314 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 1: for us to understand. I don't know. I don't tend 315 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:26,960 Speaker 1: to find up. Yes, that should find some airflow, Stamphire, 316 00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:32,120 Speaker 1: don't block the opening. Ever, can you hear me? If 317 00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:37,480 Speaker 1: you can hear me, walk towards my words, stay focused 318 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 1: on clearing the rocks. Ever, ever is that you? I 319 00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:48,719 Speaker 1: think I see her do the opening slip last one, 320 00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:53,880 Speaker 1: pass me the lantern. We can find a way to 321 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:58,080 Speaker 1: reach her if you could just listen to me. Ever, 322 00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:01,960 Speaker 1: follow the sound of my We're going to get you 323 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:08,440 Speaker 1: out of here. Nothing never look closer. I can almost 324 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:17,240 Speaker 1: make out her face. Ember, it's you. What's that mark 325 00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:26,000 Speaker 1: on your forehead? The red spiral neber Amber is no longer. 326 00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:32,440 Speaker 1: I have spoken the words to unlock the master door. 327 00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:38,120 Speaker 1: I have learned two It's beyond the conscious mind. I've 328 00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:43,040 Speaker 1: experienced the sound of silence, the color of darkness, the 329 00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:48,120 Speaker 1: size of the infinite. But what I could never have 330 00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:52,800 Speaker 1: imagined is that the path to enlightenment has always been 331 00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:58,920 Speaker 1: concealed within How twisted is reality, and that the true 332 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:02,720 Speaker 1: nature of exists it at once at our fingertips get 333 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:08,960 Speaker 1: always just beyond our grass amber. We're not meant to understand. 334 00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:12,640 Speaker 1: We're not meant to know the secrets. Coming here was 335 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:17,920 Speaker 1: a mistake. This was no mistake. Down here, I have 336 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:21,480 Speaker 1: communed with the cosmes. I have stared into the soul 337 00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:24,560 Speaker 1: of the sun and witnessed its blinding rays of light. 338 00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:32,160 Speaker 1: There's no return, there never was. This is can't be truth. 339 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:37,719 Speaker 1: I would accept it. Then you must hear for yourself 340 00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:44,040 Speaker 1: what is hidden shall always be buried. List him and 341 00:31:44,240 --> 00:32:06,000 Speaker 1: learn the truth. I'm never mind your mockery. Now that 342 00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:08,080 Speaker 1: we've come together in agreement as to why the crater 343 00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:11,760 Speaker 1: is here, I suppose we can finally get some rest. Yeah. Right, 344 00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:14,920 Speaker 1: your story has all the credibility of a conspiracy theory. 345 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:17,560 Speaker 1: It's full of holes bigger than the crater worth standing in. 346 00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:22,360 Speaker 1: No such thing as contour quava. Well, you'd believe me 347 00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:25,160 Speaker 1: if you heard its call. But I understand it's hard 348 00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:30,720 Speaker 1: for lesser minds to fathom abstract concepts such as forbidden knowledge. Fine, 349 00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:33,600 Speaker 1: the mystery of the crater's origin will forever remain unsolved. 350 00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:41,280 Speaker 1: Have it your way, Uh, I think I found what 351 00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:44,280 Speaker 1: caused the crater, or at least what's left of this. 352 00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:51,520 Speaker 1: Either that rock come from ground to probably black opal 353 00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:56,280 Speaker 1: from the open pit mine. No, this is something entirely different. Well, 354 00:32:56,440 --> 00:33:01,040 Speaker 1: let me take a look. I suppose rocks go. It's 355 00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:05,480 Speaker 1: not uninteresting. It is a green clash like appearance. Hard 356 00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:08,560 Speaker 1: to say if it's igneas sedimentary, or metamorphic. You don't 357 00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:10,760 Speaker 1: come across the specimen like this every day, but I 358 00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:13,600 Speaker 1: wouldn't say it's particularly special. Keep it as a souvenir. 359 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:18,640 Speaker 1: You're both wrong, and whatever made this crater, it wasn't 360 00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:28,960 Speaker 1: monster or machine. It came from the night sky. Joseph, 361 00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:32,720 Speaker 1: my father, it's time we must leave now. Our people 362 00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 1: look to you for guidance. What is the meaning of 363 00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 1: this ceremony? Blood magic? Father? You can't, My dear daughter, 364 00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:45,720 Speaker 1: you should not have entered my tent unannounced that the 365 00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:49,520 Speaker 1: final plague, the Plague of Eternal Night, has begun. It 366 00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:54,240 Speaker 1: envelops our city comat in total darkness. I know, and father, 367 00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:57,880 Speaker 1: do you not hear the bells tolling for us? Listen 368 00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:02,040 Speaker 1: to their chimes, Gay, sound like the most heavenly music 369 00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:06,240 Speaker 1: to my ears. Taar, my daughter, I do not hear 370 00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:10,719 Speaker 1: the music. But Darren rings the bells of freedom. He 371 00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:14,520 Speaker 1: has promised to let our people go. Yes, yes, that 372 00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:18,120 Speaker 1: is all very well. We shall finally be free from 373 00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:22,120 Speaker 1: his tyranny and oppression. We must leave from Huxlaris under 374 00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:26,160 Speaker 1: cover of darkness to receive our lord's commandments. Tar, my, 375 00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:29,400 Speaker 1: dear child, you do not know Farn like I do. 376 00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:33,600 Speaker 1: He is a diabolical man. He murdered his own father 377 00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:37,040 Speaker 1: for the throne. He slaughtered his own son in a 378 00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:40,920 Speaker 1: fit of rage. Only a fool would believe fair On 379 00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:45,680 Speaker 1: will honor his promise to free our people. But Arkhan, 380 00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:50,640 Speaker 1: our cold, watches over us. Arkhan watches over us. Will 381 00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:53,720 Speaker 1: our lord watch over us as we wander the desert, 382 00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:58,640 Speaker 1: as we scavenge the sand for scraps, daughter, This is 383 00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:03,080 Speaker 1: our land, Kumat is our home. When we are but 384 00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:06,160 Speaker 1: not even one hundred steps from here, Pharaon will send 385 00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:09,640 Speaker 1: his soldiers to hunt us down and slay us Where 386 00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:13,880 Speaker 1: we stand, Ar Khan will protect us, just as he 387 00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:17,320 Speaker 1: set the plagues upon Kumat. He will deliver us to 388 00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:21,480 Speaker 1: freedom and show us the way to salvation. When Phaon 389 00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:25,279 Speaker 1: brains a hail of arrows across the sky, when he 390 00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:29,279 Speaker 1: sends his hounds to smite us, when his stones a 391 00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:34,279 Speaker 1: fire stormed down upon us, How will our Khan protect us? Then? 392 00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:38,640 Speaker 1: Can we truly put our faith in that? Ar Khan 393 00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:41,880 Speaker 1: may have answered recent prayers, but where was he or 394 00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:45,920 Speaker 1: the lost generations who lived and died as slaves under Pharaoh? 395 00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:49,440 Speaker 1: How can you say such things? Because we must take 396 00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:53,399 Speaker 1: our people's future into our own hands, forge our own path, 397 00:35:54,120 --> 00:36:02,040 Speaker 1: fight fire with fire, You do not such vile things.

But the more I 470 00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:04,880 Speaker 1: worked with it, the closer I felt to Arka, this 471 00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:10,040 Speaker 1: is an abom nation.

You did this? 489 00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:53,240 Speaker 1: Have you lost your mind? It's all part of Arkon's 490 00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:57,040 Speaker 1: master plan. We harvested the plants, and ate, and ate 491 00:43:57,160 --> 00:43:59,680 Speaker 1: and ate, but it did not fill our stomachs one bit. 492 00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:03,480 Speaker 1: But then we realized we were wrong for expecting nourishment 493 00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:06,359 Speaker 1: from our harvest, for our con blessed us at birth 494 00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:11,160 Speaker 1: with perfectly tender limbs. So one by one we devoured 495 00:44:11,239 --> 00:44:14,560 Speaker 1: our own bodies, smiling and humming to our lord's song. 496 00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:25,040 Speaker 1: Don't you hear it? Won't you? Sing along? I? I 497 00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:29,680 Speaker 1: do not hear the music? Please please, Joseph, sing along? Please? 498 00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:40,399 Speaker 1: I must go sing sing? Oh? What have I done? 499 00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:45,120 Speaker 1: I must reach the side where the media fell, the 500 00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:47,520 Speaker 1: place where the solid began, and put an end to 501 00:44:47,600 --> 00:45:12,160 Speaker 1: this evil. At once dark, at last I found you 502 00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:17,440 Speaker 1: at the great role spire. What is the meaning of 503 00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:21,960 Speaker 1: this madness, My father, how blessed we are for you 504 00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:27,120 Speaker 1: to join us in worship with this infernal fire we 505 00:45:27,440 --> 00:45:31,759 Speaker 1: honor our Lord at the holy sight where our concert 506 00:45:31,840 --> 00:45:38,920 Speaker 1: us free. Don't you hear the music? Are you hearing? 507 00:45:39,880 --> 00:45:49,439 Speaker 1: I hear the music? Cans into the fire, my lord, 508 00:45:54,239 --> 00:46:00,560 Speaker 1: I'm coming home. That was a somber story. Their story, 509 00:46:00,680 --> 00:46:04,560 Speaker 1: no fun, terrible story. I never said I had a 510 00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:09,400 Speaker 1: happy ending. I'm ready to get some sleep. Now, sleep 511 00:46:09,480 --> 00:46:14,600 Speaker 1: after that. You give serious bad dreams? All right, you 512 00:46:14,719 --> 00:46:17,640 Speaker 1: can sleep next to me tonight. Serious? Oh, keep you safe. 513 00:46:21,080 --> 00:46:23,400 Speaker 1: We'll go. You stand up until you solve the mystery 514 00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:27,279 Speaker 1: behind the crater. Actually, I was just thinking about how 515 00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:29,880 Speaker 1: sleeping adjacent to someone can raise body heat as an 516 00:46:29,960 --> 00:46:35,360 Speaker 1: effective safety measure against hypothermia. And it is chilly out tonight. Okay, 517 00:46:35,719 --> 00:46:42,480 Speaker 1: come on, get in here. Maybe all our stories are wrong, 518 00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:46,160 Speaker 1: maybe bits and pieces of them are true. Or maybe 519 00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:49,239 Speaker 1: the answer will come to us in our sleep. Who knows, 520 00:46:49,880 --> 00:47:16,120 Speaker 1: And maybe that's how it's meant to be.
