Delgo Page #3

I think he just sees me as a silly little girl.

And he's so stuck in his ways.

I mean, the borders and the regulations.

It seems so pointless. If everyone would

just let go of the past and try to move on-

Let go of the past?

Do you know how my folks died, Kyla?

We welcomed your people to our land,

and you slaughtered us for it!

You think that's something I should just get over?

Just forget about?

But that wasn't us. It was Sedessa!

Yeah, Sedessa and your army!

And what about now, Kyla?

You think this is just ancient history?

Last night your people destroyed our sanctuary.

Last night!

Delgo, I'm sorry. I didn't know.

Trust me, Kyla.

The Lockni and Nohrin will never get along.

And if you think we can, then your father's right.

You are just a silly little girl.

Yeah, I-I guess I am silly.

Thanks for setting me straight,

Delgo.

Huh.

Hmm.

Kyla!

Wait.

Whoa!

Ah.

Apparently, today's meeting was arranged...

to return a missing brooch...

which suspiciously disappeared during

their earlier encounter.

Who is this Lockni boy?

Kurrin tells me his name is Delgo,

Your Majesty.

He is one of the two Lockni boys

we found accosting the princess near the border.

I have to assume this is somehow related

to the growing Lockni unrest.

Bring them to me.

...three, two, one.

- Here I come!

- Oh!

Where is that boy?

- Must be here somewhere.

- Shh!

Hmm. I wonder where our boy could be.

Have you seen him?

'Cause I haven't seen him.

Is he under... here?

Is he under... here?

Well, then he must be under... here!

Secure the perimeter.! Burn the village.

Leave no survivors!

You're on your own, kid.

Huh?

Delgo. Hey, hey.

- Wake up, wake up. Room service is here.

- Hmm?

Did you order the, uh-

the bloodthirsty king with a side of goons?

'Cause I know it wasn't me.

O- O-Okay! I think we're moving.

Yeah, we're definitely moving.

I don't want to die! I don't want to die!

Let me out of here! Let me out of here!

Let me out of here!

Hey, let go of me! Let go!

Ow! My wrist, my wrist, my wrist! I'm brittle! I'm very brittle.

Which one of you is Delgo?

Which one of you is asking?

- Where is my daughter?

- I don't know.

Where... is... my daughter?

Hello?

Somebody?

Anybody!

Help! Oh! Let me out of here!

Please!

Please.

What did you do with the princess, Lockni?

- We didn't take her!

- Yeah!

- If you didn't take her, then why are you here?

- Why are you here?

- Yeah!

- Oh, let me guess.

You didn't make your

beat-the-snot-outta-Lockni quota?

- You Lockni are all liars!

- Yeah-Ahh.

- No?

- Look, pal, you can believe whatever you want.

But last I saw her,

she was flying home, tailed by a guard-

some lunatic on a white razorwing.

- Are you sure it was white?

- What?

The razorwing! Are you sure it was white?

Thing nearly took my head off.

Raius.

Your guest has deslumberated,

Your Musicalness.

Splendid.

A flawed one, she is.

Just look at these flimsy wings.

- Watch it!

- Inferior to yours in all respectivities.

- Spig.

- Completely lacking in the rigidity-

- Stop that!

- Of your sturdy dependages.

- Spig.

- Why, they are not even detachable, like-

- Spig!

- Yours.

- That will be all.

- Oh!

Yes, Your Graciousness.

Come on, you blubberish nincompoop!

Welcome to your new home, Princess.

I'm afraid a royal upbringing

will not have prepared you...

for life on this barren rock.

But in time you'll get used to it...

as I did.

- Sedessa?

- Empress Sedessa!

You murderer!

How c-could you?

Oh, you miss your mother.

How touching.

Pity your father is such a light sleeper.

My father-

My father will have

his best men looking for me.

Funny you should mention that.

Come on.

Are you nuts?

They'll rip your stripes off,

iron out the bumps on your head...

and suck your guts out through your eyes.!

Yes! Got it!

Ah! Now we can finally

get some fresh air in here. Whoo!

Uh-

Does your plan happen to have a part two?

I'm workin' on it.

Lockni ingenuity at its finest.

This is great! At least we have

the delightful and lovely sounds...

of the banti frogs to keep us company

for the rest of eternity!

Banti frogs?

Wai-Wai-Wai-Wait!

- Filo, if we can get into that pit, we might have a way out of here.

- Hey!

- Hey, smiley. Let's make a deal.

I get you out of your cage- - Huh!

You fly us into the pit.

Hmm.

Come on! We'll all get outta here, and you'll be

free to beat more innocent Lockni senseless.

Or maybe I'll just beat

one specific Lockni senseless.

- Somebody needs a serious time-out.

- Look, are you in or out?

Toss me the belts.

You're gonna trust this guy? Are you crazy?

- Do we have a deal?

- We have a deal. Now toss me the belts.

Nice throw.! What now, genius?

- Oh! Ow!

- Hmm.

Oh! This must be part two-

the part where we climb on top of the cage

and plummet to our death.!

Help me swing this thing.

What? You're not gonna-

Oh, no. Delgo, no. No, no, no.

Not with my help! No, no, no.

No, no, no, no, no, no,

no, no, no, no, no, no!

Gotcha!

Hmm?

Your Majesty, we must act quickly, decisively.

General Raius may be right, Your Majesty.

- Had we not hesitated previously, we might-

- Hmm!

Perhaps we should wait to hear their demands.

Wait? They have my daughter!

Gelmore, prepare a declaration.

To the Lockni Stonesage Council.

Your resistance in returning my daughter

has left me no choice...

but to take aggressive action.

We cannot give him a princess we don't have.

He could have accepted our help-

instead, he issued an ultimatum.

- And took two of our boys!

- So we let ourselves be bullied into war?

- We have little choice.

- And our people are willing!

Our duty is to lead our people,

not to be led by them.

What do you propose we do?

Stand idly by as the Nohrin attack our villages?

As they take our children?

The truce has been broken. War is inevitable.

Members of the council,

your voices have been heard. Let us vote.

Peace.

War.

Hey, um, er-

Delgo?

Uh, I wonder if that guy had the same plan as you.

Quiet, Filo.

- Do you know a way out or not?

- Shh!

This is the spot.

Where there are banti frogs, there are yaags.

And where there are yaags, there are yaag tunnels.

Uh, have you guys, uh,

really thought this one through?

I mean, you know, yaags eat Lockni.

And if-You know, if you just-

Spiders! Spiders! Spiders!

They're all over me!

They're all over me.! They're all over me.!

They're in my pants! They're in my pants!

There's one in my pants!

Get 'em off of me! Get 'em off of me!

Get them off of-

Secure the reservoir.

Put all our troops near there.

Idiot! I knew I shouldn't

have listened to you!

If you knew then you're the idiot, idiot!

- Never trust a Lockni.

- What's your problem?

- You're my problem.

- Oh, yeah?

- You're messing with the wrong guy.

- No, you're the right guy!

I owed you that.

Huh! What are you planning to do with that?

Pick its teeth?

This is your ferocious yaag?

Oh, it's just a baby!
