The Dragon Prince

Ba-bum.

Previously on The Dragon Prince...

Boys!

You're going on a trip to the Banther Lodge.

- -Aspiro.

You just did magic.

- You're a mage. -Wow!

I'm a mage!

Moonshadow elves are dangerous, elite fighters.

They will find you, and they will kill you.

It's up to us now.

We have to return this egg to keep it safe and carry it to Xadia.

And find its mother.

We could make a difference.

Just the three of us.

- - Four of us.

Unbind yourself!

Unbind... thyself.

Unbindo!

Don't judge me.

So what, I'm talking to my ribbon-thing?

How is that any worse than talking to a...

whatever it is you are?

Ugh!

A funeral so soon is madness.

It is tradition to mourn fallen kings for seven sunsets.

You've not even given him one.

I understand your concern, Opeli,

but in a time of war, we must move forward.

Hey, keep your head up.

Ugh, sorry.

Long night.

Drink this.

I call it "hot brown morning potion."

That's good!

Today we woke to a devastating truth.

Our king has been taken from us.

Slain by the forces of Xadia, vile Moonshadow elves.

To me, he was more than a king.

In his final hours, Harrow called me...

his brother.

Wait.

Where are the princes?

They need to be here.

The princes...

are dead.

We cannot let Xadia's cruelty go unanswered.

We must move forward with strength.

Light the pyre.

No.

Claudia.

When a ruler of Katolis dies, we mourn for seven days.

But we are at war.

Today, we must mourn sevenfold...

for tonight, there will be a coronation.

Callum. Callum. Hey!

That's your name, right? Callum?

-Clem? Or was it Camel? -Uh, it's Callum.

I guess I was just distracted trying to draw this... prima-ball.

-Primal Stone. -Right.

It holds the pure essence of a primal spirit inside.

- Primal Source? -Right.

You do know what the Six Primal Sources are?

Uh, if I say yes, are you gonna make me name them?

Ugh.

All magic in the world comes from the Primal Sources.

They're the original and purest forms of magical energy.

The Sun, the Moon, the Stars, the Earth, the Ocean, and...

-The Sky. -Yes.

To cast a spell, a mage needs Primal Energy.

So that wind breath spell you did?

You'd usually need a storm or at least a strong breeze.

But with that stone,

you have all the power of the Sky, any time.

-Wow. -Primal Stones are incredibly rare.

They've been sought after by the most powerful arch-mages in history.

And now, somehow you have one.

Wait, I... I've seen these before. At the Banther Lodge.

There was this little cube thing and it had these exact symbols on it.

Uh, neat.

What if it's magic? We have to go get it.

Wait, what? We have real problems to worry about.

Ending the war. Taking the dragon egg to Xadia. Remember?

Xadia's to the east, right? So is the lodge. It's on the way.

Oh, great. I'm sure it won't be crawling with humans.

Humans that are looking for you and want to kill me! Yay!

No, it's the winter lodge. It's been empty for months. Trust me.

Look... Rayla.

Princes are supposed to be good at things.

Uh, sword fighting, leadership... riding horses.

But I've always been kind of bad at, well, everything.

So, when I tried that spell,

I was sure I'd end up on fire or covered in spiders...

but it worked.

And then you called me a mage, and that felt... right.

I... I just have this feeling that cube thing could help me.

Callum?

I had a weird dream.

It wasn't a dream, Ez. All of that was real.

Are you sure?

There was this giant pink hippopotamus and I pulled its ear off.

Because it was made of taffy.

Uh... no. That... that was a dream.

I thought you meant the elves,

the smoke wolves, the dragon egg. That was all real.

Then I tried to thank the hippo for the taffy,

but he couldn't hear me, because I was eating his ears.

Hey, sad prince.

Let's go get your cube.

-Really? - Yes.

Just, please, no more detours, all right? Or heartfelt speeches.

-Hey, guys? Can we-- -We're not stopping yet.

-But I'm-- -No snacks.

I was gonna say thirsty.

Fine. Drink this.

Uh, no, thank you. We don't drink... that.

-What? -Blood.

We don't drink blood.

We don't mean to be rude, but, uh, you can keep it.

It's moonberry juice.

Is that what humans think we are? Bloodthirsty monsters?

No, no, no. It... it's not that.

I mean, I... I have heard stories, but... but I'm sure they're just stories.

Horrible, awful stories. Oh, look at that, we're here.

See? No winter, no humans at the winter lodge.

Let's just make this quick.

Tell me where the thing is, and I'll be in and out.

Okay, so this is the game room. Cube should be in there.

Like I said, no winter, no humans. Right?

Yeah, but it is kind of weird there's no one here...

since this is where Dad was sending us.

Yeah, we probably shouldn't have come here.

Aunt Amaya?

I'm so glad you're safe.

Extremely safe!

Safe and... alone!

Oh, uh, that door's locked.

So, uh, you wait here for a minute, couple minutes, few...

However long it takes. I'll go find a key.

I don't believe in locks.

Someone's here.
