00:00Hey, look, the Dungeons and Dragons ride.
00:09Wow, neat.
00:11Give me a break.
00:13I don't like this.
00:15Whoa, what's happening?
00:17Whoa!
00:19Where are we?
00:22Look out!
00:26Fear not, Ranger.
00:31Barbarian, magician, thief.
00:35Cavalier and acrobat.
00:49Who was that?
00:51That was Venger, the force of evil.
00:54I am Dungeon Master,
00:56your guide in the realm of Dungeons and Dragons.
01:01DUNGEON MASTER
01:23Dungeon Master, help!
01:26Somebody please help me!
01:29She's the one! Get rid of her!
01:33All I want is a place to spend the night.
01:36The moons are in eclipse.
01:38It is time for him to return.
01:40He has nothing to do with me.
01:43That's a lie.
01:47Eric, don't let it touch you.
01:51Hank, are you all right?
01:53My legs.
01:56I can't feel them.
01:59Bobby went for help, Hank.
02:01It's going to be okay.
02:03Bobby better bring back the marines,
02:05or we're all goners.
02:07We're surrounded.
02:09Gotcha.
02:25Somebody, please help.
02:28The fog! It's attacking my friends!
02:31You see, woman?
02:33He's come back! We must hide!
02:35It's the Darkling!
02:39I'm afraid you'll get no help from them, boy.
02:45Quicken?
02:47Time to go, my pet.
02:53Climb up, son. We'd better move along.
02:59Yeah, we've got to hurry.
03:01The fog's already hurt Hank.
03:04What? I can't help you.
03:06I'm heading far away from here.
03:08Huh? But you can't.
03:10We need your help. Please.
03:16Where's Dungeon Master when you need him?
03:19Dungeon Master again, eh?
03:23All right, we'll help.
03:25I just hope we're not too late.
03:28Watch it!
03:30What's the use?
03:32We can't keep this up forever.
03:37What are you doing?
03:40I've got to fight back.
03:45Somebody help!
03:53No!
03:59There, Martha! Over there!
04:04As always, she is nearby.
04:12Look! The fog's going away!
04:18Hank!
04:21Hank! Sheila! I brought help!
04:24Sorry, Bobby.
04:26It's too late.
04:28What do you mean? Sheila? Eric?
04:31Hank's gone, Bobby.
04:34What do you mean, gone? No!
04:43I am sorry the Darkling's fog got your friend.
04:47Who is this Darkling guy, anyway?
04:50He is darkness. He creates that fog you saw.
04:54Everyone fears him.
04:57What will you do now?
04:59I don't know. Guys?
05:01Don't ask me.
05:03Me neither.
05:05Where are you going?
05:07Wherever they'll accept me.
05:09Wait a minute. What about Hank?
05:12We've got to find him, don't we?
05:14I'm afraid once the Darkling takes someone,
05:17they're never seen again.
05:19Oh, no. But we can't just give up.
05:22Maybe Dungeon Master can help.
05:25Dungeon Master? Where was he when we needed him?
05:28Help is not always seen, Cavalier.
05:31But we needed you. Hank's gone.
05:34The Darkling's fog got him.
05:38I sure hope you can help.
05:45I am very sorry about the ranger,
05:48but I can do nothing to change what has happened.
05:51Nothing? What do you mean, nothing?
05:53You're the one who sent us into this horrible forest.
05:56You must seek the Lightbearer in the forest of dark,
05:59for only when the light embraces the dark
06:02will darkness be destroyed.
06:04Listen, you master of nothing.
06:06Hank's gone, and you've got some explaining to do.
06:09Look at him. It's pitiful.
06:12He hasn't even got a poor excuse.
06:14Eric, that won't help things.
06:17Can't you do anything, Dungeon Master?
06:20Against the Darkling's magic? No.
06:23That's it. Give me that bow.
06:25Let's go look for someone who can help us.
06:28We're not letting this Darkling creep get away with taking Hank.
06:31Very well, Cavalier.
06:33But in your haste, remember,
06:35when darkness seems all-powerful,
06:38let the Forgotten Candle Flame be your light.
06:43Greetings, Martha.
06:47Cregan, come here.
06:49The last time I saw you, Dungeon Master,
06:52my life was ruined.
06:54Ah, I see. That sounds familiar.
06:57Gee, does Dungeon Master know everybody?
07:00Seems like it.
07:02Yeah, seems like Martha knows him, too.
07:05If you want to come with me, climb up.
07:08Well?
07:10Come out of here.
07:14I... I'm sorry, Dungeon Master.
07:19Now, listen, everybody.
07:21Maybe Dungeon Master's given up, but we won't.
07:24We'll find this Darkling and make him pay for taking Hank.
07:27As you wish, Cavalier.
07:31Whoa!
07:33Time for lunch.
07:36Mmm!
07:43Where are we?
07:45About halfway between Shouderon and Mindrel.
07:48Oh, yeah, sure.
07:50Martha, who's this?
07:53Well, that was my family.
07:56Now, while we eat, let's discuss where we're going.
08:01What we need to know is how to find this Darkling person.
08:05You don't want to find him.
08:08There's a town a ways ahead, Mindrel,
08:11where you'll be safe from him.
08:13We'll be there by nightfall.
08:15No way!
08:19What?
08:21We appreciate your help, Martha, but we don't want to be safe.
08:24We've got to get Hank back
08:26and stop that Darkling guy from taking anyone else.
08:29Yeah!
08:30Yeah!
08:34Well, before you attempt the impossible, you'd better eat
08:38and have a good night's sleep in a real bed in Mindrel.
08:41You'll still have time to find him tomorrow night.
08:45What do you mean, still have time?
08:48The Darkling appears for only three nights every 33 years
08:53and takes one victim each night.
08:56How do you know that?
08:58It's been for the past 1,000 years.
09:05But if it's been going on for 1,000 years,
09:08that would be almost a hundred victims.
09:12Yes.
09:13But why?
09:15His power grows during the eclipse of the moons.
09:19And when he takes his hundredth victim,
09:22his winds of darkness shall destroy all light in the realm forever.
09:26There must be a way of stopping this jerk.
09:28Remember what Dungeon Master said?
09:30Something about the light bear destroying the darkness?
09:34Yeah.
09:35Come. If we're going to get to Mindrel by nightfall,
09:38we'd better get moving.
09:39Are you all going to sit there?
09:41We must get moving.
09:45That is Mindrel.
09:47Wow!
09:48It's beautiful.
09:50All right!
09:51If we all go, we might alarm the townspeople.
09:54I'll go in alone and find a place for us to stay.
09:57You'll be safe from the Darkling as long as it's daylight.
10:04No, no.
10:05Bobby, you look after Guiguin.
10:07She might get lost in the city.
10:09No problem.
10:10You need an aisle watcher.
10:13I'll be back as soon as I can.
10:15Be careful.
10:17Guiguin!
10:18I can't look after you if you don't stay still.
10:21Take it easy, Bobby.
10:23Martha said it was safe.
10:25Ah!
10:27As always,
10:29Martha has found me the perfect prey.
10:33Just a little closer.
10:38Presto, look out!
10:46And?
10:47Yay!
10:50Let's get him!
10:56Eric?
10:59We've got to keep going.
11:01Martha said he's the source of this fog.
11:04We can't.
11:05We're surrounded.
11:06Come on, Hat.
11:07You're our only hope.
11:09Alakazam!
11:11Give me something to make this fog...
11:14Scrim?
11:16Ah, gee.
11:20It's all arranged.
11:22We've all got soft beds to sleep in tonight.
11:34No!
11:35No!
11:39Look!
11:44What?
11:45Foolish woman!
11:49Why do you interfere now,
11:51after all these years?
11:53You've already taken one of them.
11:56Go elsewhere for your 99th.
12:00Watch your tongue, old woman.
12:03I spare no one.
12:05No!
12:06You'll not take these children!
12:08I won't let you!
12:11You can't stop me!
12:30We're safe, for now.
12:41You shall pay for this, Martha.
12:46You can't hurt me, Darkling.
12:49We shall see.
13:04It's Gweekin!
13:06What's wrong with Uni?
13:08Gweekin?
13:10Where are you, my sweet?
13:12Gweekin?
13:17So, that's what he meant.
13:19The fiend took my Gweekin.
13:22Don't worry.
13:23We'll find the Darkling.
13:25And with your help, we can defeat him.
13:27Yeah.
13:28You must be that lightbearer
13:30old Dungeon Drip was talking about.
13:32Yeah.
13:33With your power, we can beat him for sure.
13:36No, I won't do it.
13:38I can't bear seeing anyone else lost.
13:44I must go.
13:46Perhaps someday I'll find a place
13:48his evil power can't reach.
13:52Martha!
13:53Wait!
13:54Don't leave us!
13:55You can't just run away.
13:57You've got to try and stop the Darkling.
13:59Dungeon Master tried to tell me the same thing.
14:02It didn't work then, and it won't work now.
14:04Don't try to stop me.
14:06Don't you care about us?
14:10No, I don't.
14:11I... I mean, I can't.
14:20If you want the Darkling,
14:22you'll find him in the Grotto of Darkness to the west.
14:26But without my help.
14:30Thanks, Uni.
14:31Well, just because she's given up
14:33we're not going to.
14:35I am very glad to hear you say that, Cavalier.
14:40Huh?
14:41What are you doing here?
14:43If you do not stop the Darkling,
14:45he will have his hundredth victim,
14:47and his winds of darkness will rule the realm forever.
14:51But you said only the Lightbearer could stop him.
14:57That is true.
14:58But remember, in darkness...
15:04there is also light.
15:08What is he talking about?
15:10Look, we've got to stop this Darkling.
15:19Foolish children.
15:21They'll only be hurt.
15:27Come on, you great beast.
15:29Get going.
15:30We must go after them.
15:34Come on.
15:41The children move too quickly.
15:47I... I can't keep up.
15:51I can't let them go in there alone.
15:55This looks like the place.
15:58I sure wish Martha was with us.
16:00Me, too.
16:01What's your plan, Eric?
16:03All right.
16:04Diana and I'll go in and draw his attention,
16:07and you'll take care of the fog with your hat.
16:10Okay.
16:11Bobby, I want you up on the roof,
16:13ready to bring it down if you have to.
16:15What about me?
16:16No.
16:17We need you to try and find Hank.
16:19If you can't find Hank,
16:21We need you to try and find Hank.
16:23If he's here...
16:28Yeah, yeah, and Gweeken, too.
16:30Here, you'd better hang on to this.
16:32Okay, Eric.
16:33Diana, let's go.
16:39Oh, no.
16:40It's almost dark.
16:41There's no time.
16:43I should give it up.
16:45One of them is probably already number 100.
16:48Well, come on, old girl.
16:51We've got an appointment to keep.
17:01Welcome!
17:04I assume Martha sent you.
17:09Well, uh, yeah.
17:11Yeah.
17:12She sent us to put an end to you.
17:15How delightful.
17:18She actually have you believing her.
17:22That's because I meant it.
17:30You're too late.
17:32One of these children will be the hundredth victim.
17:36And the winds of darkness shall be released.
17:40No, they won't.
17:44Remember what we said.
17:46You won't be taking anyone out.
17:48You are wrong.
18:09You want your hundredth victim?
18:13Come.
18:14Take me.
18:17No!
18:18Martha, you can't!
18:20I don't want you.
18:23I've chosen another.
18:29Get ready with your hat, Pesto.
18:31One for the money and two for the show.
18:36Now's the time to make this fog go.
18:42Wow!
18:43Good going.
18:45Your feeble magic can't stop me.
18:48No, but I can.
18:50There is no darkness so powerful
18:53that a single candle flame can't chase it away.
19:08Eric!
19:13Sheila!
19:17What's happening?
19:34Hank, you're okay!
19:36Yeah.
19:39About time you decided to come back and lead this little band.
19:42I don't know how you put up with these guys.
19:45Thanks, Eric.
19:47Thanks, everybody.
19:58Eric! Diana!
20:04Thanks, Martha.
20:06I never expected you to come help us,
20:08but I'm sure glad you did.
20:10I'm glad, too.
20:12But it was your courage that helped me understand
20:15how simply my light could defeat his darkness.
20:18Indeed.
20:20I should have followed your advice sooner, Dungeon Master.
20:23But until I met these children, I didn't understand.
20:27It is not the speed with which something is learned,
20:31but that it is learned at all that counts.
20:37Speaking of learning,
20:39have you, by any chance, learned of a way we can get home?
20:43No.
20:45Well, I have heard of a great magician by the name of Kryn
20:49who might be able to send you home.
20:54Now that's what I wanted to hear!
20:56Yeah, that's great!
20:58-♪
