Mythica: The Iron Crown Page #4

- Caia, now!

- She has blackvine, very expensive.

- See, that's what I've always said.

We need more gold!

- Faster you fools!

- Come on.

- Is that good or bad?

- Based on past experience,

I'd say it's always bad.

Hey!

- I'm not falling for that old trick.

- Kill, kill, kill!

No survivors, boys!

Go!

- It's her, it's the bloody Admiral.

- Yes!

- Oh brilliant!

- Oh, fyke.

Step aside, time to die.

- Gotcha.

Sweet mother of vengeance.

- Admiral, Admiral.

- Fyke, boys!

- Tell me, if you're so convinced

we are stuck here to die,

then why is it you care

if your pitiful team

reaches their goal?

I am defeated, nothing else matters,

wouldn't you say?

- Even one piece of the Darkspore

has enough evil in it

to be worth protecting.

- No, no that's not it.

You know how this ends,

and yet you still chose this path.

Tell me, why?

- Even if I told you,

you could never understand my way.

That is why you will fail in the end.

- No, I can see now that I merely

overestimated your intellect.

Your plan is ill conceived.

Which you will soon discover.

- Then go on, what are you waiting for?

- Marek.

You still, you still owe me a kiss.

- Shh, hey don't say that.

You're not dying.

- Marek.

- No.

Dagen.

Dagen.

Degan!

Stop!

Dagen!

Teela!

Teela, help him!

Teela, heal him!

- Oh Marek, she can't bring him back.

- Teela help him,

or I'll hurt Thane!

Don't make me do it!

Dagen.

- What happened?

- She made Teela bring you back.

It may have been too much for her.

- I was dead, I was dead.

- We have to get Marek to that temple.

She can't go on with Teela inside of her.

It's going to kill her, or me.

- Marek, It's me, it's me, yes.

- Dagen.

- You managed to keep

me around a bit longer.

- Don't explain.

- Explain what?

- She's willing to sacrifice

anything to bring you back.

That's all.

It's probably just the wind.

- You don't think those demons could

run through that storm do you?

- They don't seem to stop

at much of anything else.

- Mind if we join you?

The artifact, let's have it.

- So that's what brings people

back from the dead, huh?

Is that how you got your thief back?

- It doesn't raise the dead to the living,

it turns them undead.

- Oh, well that sounds bad.

You know, that reminds

me of that one time.

- How do you use it?

- You don't, it uses you.

It's a piece of the Lich Kings heart,

and it's power can only

be used by a necromancer.

Like me.

- Hammerhead's no necromancer.

- He'll trade it to a necromancer,

for the Iron Crown of the Dwarves.

- I've known Hammerhead a

long time, he's no fool.

- He's no fool,

but he may not believe there's

any way to stop Szorlok,

so he'll profit any way he can.

- Yes, that is his way.

- Know this.

The Darkspore is a

weapon with one purpose.

Death.

If Szorlok gets that last piece,

nothing will matter.

Not your gold, not

Hammerhead's crown, nothing.

What's so funny?

- Your dedication to Gojun's crusade.

- We can't let Szorlok get the Darkspore.

We're all responsible for it.

- That's your quest, not ours.

- We're mercenaries, true enough,

but we never take work

we don't believe in.

Hammerhead's ways may not

be in line with yours,

but what would you do that's any better?

- We're taking it to a

temple to keep it safe.

Anything's better than

letting Szorlok have it.

- I'm done talking, it's settled.

- You're making a mistake.

- Our only mistake is letting you live.

If I had it my way, you'd all be dead

with a lot less discussion about it!

- We'll drop your weapons at a safe place,

but don't bother coming after us.

We ride much faster than

this contraption ever could.

You have too much doubt in yourself.

Make your own path.

If you do wrong, at least

you made a real choice.

Don't go wrong following someone else.

- Don't cry Redthorns.

You're lucky to be alive.

- We have to help them.

- What?

- Come on.

- Can't we just watch for a minute?

- Marek.

- Go on you fools.

You owe us nothing, get

away while you still can!

We can't win, not without

Thorsten and Caia!

- Dagen, switch!

- I will not switch!

I was dead, I have earned the right

to fight the thing that only has one arm!

Thane, Thane, switch!

- Are we really going to do this?

- What's the plan?

- I'm going to take the Darkspore

to the Temple of the Owl,

and you can either help me,

or you can die trying to stop me.

- That was some quick thinking,

but your team needs a leader,

and you keep waiting for

somebody to give you the answers.

Hammerhead, Gojun, they

won't lead your team.

Their time has past.

- Thank you.

- Ha, don't thank me.

We may all yet live to be enemies again.

Let's go.

- There's our guide!

I knew she wouldn't let us down.

- There's nothing left to channel.

Looks like we're down

to brute strength now.

- You always had me

out-matched physically,

but I never had too much

trouble outsmarting you.

- You always were a cheater.

- There are no cheaters, only

the victors and the dead.

- You all right?

- He was right, you know.

- About what?

- I'm not a leader.

- Really?

Why do I keep following you then?

Why does Thane keep following you?

- I don't know.

Maybe because you like pain and suffering?

- Don't jest.

Not like this.

We follow you for the same

reason Gojun Pye does.

- What?

- Heck, Gojun doesn't

see you as a follower.

He's looking to you for answers.

He believes that you can

succeed where he can't.

- Don't be stupid, Gojun is

more powerful than I ever.

- Do you really believe it's still

about being more powerful?

It's never been that way

with us, it never will be.

That's not how we're

going to defeat Szorlok.

- Then how?

What do we do?

- Don't honestly know.

But I do believe, that

when the time comes,

you'll have the answer.

You always do, that's why we follow you.

'Cause we believe in you.

- How are you so hopeful

all of the sudden?

- Well I died,

and I was brought back to life

by a beautiful girl

possessed by a goddess,

so the worst has to be behind me, right?

- Impossible.

What's the world coming to

when you can't kill a man

and be sure he'll stay dead?

- He's a reprobate, he's got no shame.

A downright disingenuous.

- Watch 'em.

- This is holy ground.

Leave the wagon here.

- Thane, stop the wagon.

This is it, we're here.

- That's it, fight me

with all your strength.

Good, now, let me show you

the error of your ways,

as I return to our world and

usher in a new age or order,

my order.

- There's no magic, you can't go back.

- Yes, because, how did yo put it?

There is no living

thing for me to feed on.

Well there is one living thing.

You're too tired, old friend.

You've already used the

last of your strength.

Now, give me your life

force, you cannot resist.

- No, it can't be gone.

No!

- The closer we get, the weaker I become.

- If it gets much worse,

we are turning back.

I don't care if you think.

- There!

We're coming, Teela!

- Admiral.

- What?
