The Dragon Prince

I kept the magical map to the Garden of Innocents

in Kpp'Ar's secret basement.

Wow.

It's gorgeous.

The map.

It's completely blank now. There's nothing on it.

Young Terrestrius has what we need.

We must let him guide us.

You killed my father!

Soren, arrest him!

I have to stop this. I'm going to get Runaan out.

I won't let you have him.

Frigus pedes!

I'm sorry, Ezran.

Traitors of Lux Aurea.

Today, you face judgment.

You have followed a betrayer down a path of violence.

Our laws dictate the punishment is death.

However…

Queen Amaya and I believe in second chances.

We believe compassion will build a stronger, brighter future

for the Sunfire kingdom.

So we have decided…

on forgiveness.

Each and every one of you will be pardoned.

Oh. Oh, my goodness. Oh.

Oh, thank you so much. Thank you.

Let today be remembered as the Day of the Great Amnesty.

Understand that you must earn back the trust, respect,

and honor of your fellow elves.

That is how we heal.

Do not stray again.

There will be no third chances.

All hail the queens of mercy!

Queens of mercy!

Queens of mercy! Queens of mercy!

Queens of mercy! Queens of mercy! Queens of mercy!

Whoo! Whoo!

That was so beautiful.

I'm so proud of you.

But, Janai, you can't avoid making a decision about your brother forever.

-Will you pardon Karim as well? -No.

Karim's army was led astray, but he is the one who led them.

If I choose not to blame the thousand elves who turned against us,

then I have to lay the blame upon Karim a thousand times more.

But he's your brother.

Yes, he is.

My brother tried to take everything from me.

From us.

How can I ever forgive him?

I'll never forgive him.

Callum betrayed me. He betrayed all of Katolis.

We can't let him get away with it.

Corvus, I need you to track them.

King Ezran, we already know where they're going.

The Silvergrove.

Right. And that's why I need you to intercept them before they get there.

You're the bread.

- -Not now, Zym!

King Ezran.

Could I have a word?

The unicorns had many secrets.

And their oldest secret was the Garden of Innocents.

A beautiful place hidden from prying eyes

where unicorns could find peace and tranquility.

Sounds absolutely lovely.

- Hmm. -What's wrong, Terry?

We should be at a bridge.

A bridge next to a tree and over a rainbow river?

Seems hard to miss.

See? Take a look.

Ah, sure is weird.

These look like hoof prints.

I remember!

Uh…

Claudia, watch out!

Yes! The tree is the bridge!

- Mwah! -

Come on. It's easy!

Um, Claudia. I don't think I'm doing this right.

You have to run and jump, Terry.

Run and jump!

Callum and I used to feed the ducks old bread.

The ducks told me they like berries better but Callum didn't believe me.

I know it hurts right now, Ezran,

but you need to know that you and Callum are not broken.

The both of you will heal one day.

-You're brothers. -

It's okay to be angry, and it's okay to be sad.

But I think you should let this go, for now.

You are the king of Katolis, and your people need you.

You're right. I need to protect them.

There's something I want to show you. A secret place in Duren.

What is it?

My Queen, it's about General… that is, it's about the other prisoner.

-Miyana. -Miyana, who conspired with Karim?

Who stole the Sun Seed and our future?

She may be one of your own, but I will not be swayed.

She will be granted no amnesty.

I understand.

But, Queen Janai, circumstances have "changed."

Circumstances? What? What circumstances?

Miyana has informed her guards that she is…

-with child. -

Oh! That's the rainbow river.

Imagine what it was like when it was full of unicorns.

It's too bad they're all gone now.

It is beautiful, indeed,

but there's work to be done.

I have a favor to ask, young Terrestrius.

A favor?

To make a primal stone,

Claudia and I will search for an ingredient here in the garden,

but I need you to go back to the forest to find something just as important.

Uh, what is it?

Two shimmercrow feathers.

A large feather and a very small one.

Two feathers? That's all?

That is all.

Oh, thank goodness!

I thought you were going to ask me to find something weird or creepy.

You know, the usual.

Find us the prettiest, fluffiest feathers in the forest, Terry.

We'll explore the garden when we're done with all this mage work.

Right. Easy-peasy.

I'll be back in two wiggles of my waggle.

Come, Claudia. Let's begin.

How much do you know about the Mage Wars?

Only what my tutors taught us.

When humans were banished from Xadia,

they found that the western half of the continent

was almost completely barren of magic.

That is not the whole truth.

-What do you mean? -The West wasn't barren at all.

Before the Mage Wars, the land was the same as all of Xadia,

full of life, full of riches, full of magic.

In the new lands,

the humans who rose to power were those who knew how to use its magic.

The mages became warlords.

The mage warlords waged bitter, bloody battles

for control of the lands they claimed.

Their armies scoured the lands for magic and bled it dry.

And they hunted the magical creatures to extinction.

When one mage rose to power, another was quick to dethrone them.

It was a violent, terrible cycle.

The wars only stopped when there was nothing left to fight for.

All the magical resources were consumed or destroyed,

and magic all but disappeared from the West.

How could I not know that? What really happened.

History has a way of burying the ugly truths of those who write it.

So, why are you telling me about all this now?

After the Mage Wars, some things were hidden.

What I'm about to show you is a secret Duren has kept concealed for centuries.
