- What goes on here?

- What goes on here?

Deceiver!

Stop him!

Captain, getup!

- You are great.

Get on that shield!

Sorsha!

After them!

- Whoa! Hey!

They're getting away!

-Follow me, Rool. I don't know.

- Where are you?

- Aah! Ooh.

- Oh, no, where did everybody go?

Maybe it was

something we said.

Ohh-h-h-h!

Madmartigan!

- Madmartigan!

- What the hell happened up there?

You started spouting poetry.

- Poetry?

- Yeah.

"I love you, Sorsha.

I worship you, Sorsha."

You almost got us killed!

"I love you, Sorsha"?

I don't love her.

She kicked me in the face.

I hate her! Don't I?

Kael! Kael!

Nockmaar soldiers!

Hoy! Get the children! Come on!

- Get the children!

- They're after us! We need to hide.

Come on. Follow me. Quick!

Come on! Move!

I knew you'd

get out of that rattrap.

I knew you'd

get out of that rattrap.

You left me to die, Airk.

I probably saved your life.

We were slaughtered

and I lost a lot of good-

- Shh! Quiet!

Tear this village apart!

Look everywhere!

Find the child!

- Shh!

Shh-shh-shh!

Tell Sorsha

I search the north bank!

- Hah! Hah!

- Yes, General.

- Quiet. Shh!

- Sorsha!

- Back.

Back!

Back!

- Keep the baby quiet.

- She needs to be changed.

- Nockmaar scum!

- You'll never defeat us.

- Give up the baby!

- Shut up!

What does Bavmorda want

with this baby, anyway?

She's a princess.

- We're taking her to Tir Asleen.

- Tir Asleen?

Even if you could

find it, peck.

she's right-you'd never

get past the Nockmaar army.

There's an even bigger

army at Tir Asleen.

- If we can just get there-

I've lost more than half

my men fighting Bavmorda.

Now you and this peck

are gonna take her on?

You always told me you served

no one, Madmartigan.

Since when are

you a crusader?

He's not gonna help you, peck.

He's a worthless thief.

I'm not a thief, Airk.

He's not a thief.

Are you?

I serve the Nelwyn, Airk.

- Want to come with us?

- You'll never make it, Madmartigan.

Then once again

we say good-bye.

- Over here!

- Sorsha!

Weapons down or she's dead!

Hyah! Hyah!

- Hyah!

- Get to your horses! After 'em!

This way!

This way!

As the crow flies, you fools!

- You're holding me too tight!

- I don't want you to get away.

Why? Because I'm your sun.

your moon, your starlit sky?

Get your hair out of my face.

or I'll chop it off.

Did I really- Did I really

say those things last night?

- In your tent?

- You said you loved me.

- I don't remember that.

- You lied to me!

No, I-

I just wasn't myself

last night.

I suppose my power enchanted you.

and you were helpless against it.

- Um, sort of.

- Then what?

It went away.

It went away?

"I dwell in darkness without you."

- and it went away?

- Yeah.

- Whoa.

Hurry! Kael's coming!

Madmartigan, come on!

Now!

Madmartigan, come on!

They're coming! Away!

Go on! Hyah!

Whoa! Whoa!

This way!

Tir Asleen! At last, Tir Asleen!

Hello?

- Hello?

Hello?

Why did I listen to you, peck?

"Everything will be all right

once we get to Tir Asleen."

The only army around here...

is the one that's about to ride

across this valley and wipe us out!

But Cherlindrea

said we'd be safe here.

Safe?

Look at these people.

This place is cursed, peck.

It's falling apart. Open your eyes!

- And it-

Trolls.

I hate trolls.

This is the work

of Bavmorda.

Willow? The wand.

- Turn me back into my human form.

- Are you sure?

Yeah.

Good.

Hurry, Willow.

Transform me.

I can't do it.

I'm just not a sorcerer.

But you can be.

Speak...

and be one

with the words.

Avalorium, greenan,

luatha, tye-

- Oh, Willow, you're losing me.

Madmartigan.

Kael's coming!

Willow, you idiot.

- Raziel?

- Willow,

arm that catapult up there.

- Whoa! Whoa!

- Good work, Madmartigan.

- What the hell happened to you?

Assault!

Sorsha, battering ram!

Cut it down!

Faster!

Forward! Break it down!

Again! Again!

Willow, use the wand

on that troll.

- Bellalockt!

- Bwww!

Break it down! Forward!

- Whoa! Whoa!

Get him!

The other side!

Destroy the beast!

Find the baby!

Baaa!

Take tha-a-a-at!

Willow!

Madmartigan, help!

Willow!

- Get him, Madmartigan!

Here.

The baby!

Airk's army.

Get Kael!

Airk's army!

- We are here!

- You are rescued!

- Charge!

- Charge!

No mercy!

Blora!

Willow!

- Blora's gone.

- Willow.

They've taken her.

There were too many of them.

- Willow.

Can you ride?

Let's ride.

I have the child!

We need towers

and a battering ram!

Break out the tents!

Make camp!

Make camp!

We'll assault at first light.

Where's Sorsha?

She has turned against us.

Your Highness.

Turned against me?

Prepare for the ritual!

This is not an army.

Willow.

quick, hide.

Use the shelter chant.

Protect yourself.

- Why?

-Just do it.

- We've come for Blora Danan.

- You dare to challenge me?

You're not warriors.

You're pigs!

- Toa thonna mondarr!

Nocklith! vohkbar!

- You're all pigs!

- Pigs!

Avaggdu luathabairn

offhaefermore.

Sorsha!

Mother, no!

Kothon!

Avaggdu luathabairn

offhaefermore.

Avaggdu luathabairn

offhaefermore.

Begin the ritual.

This baby will not

destroy me.

Come, thunder!

Come, lightning!

Touch this altar

with your powers.

Aah!

We've come all this way

and now Blora Danan's gonna die!

No. We can still

defeat Bavmorda.

She's too powerful, Raziel.

Transform me

and I will destroy her.

Elements of eternity.

- I'm sorry.

Willow.

We must undo

Bavmorda's sorcery.

Let them in now.

Tuathagrin chnox,

Black fires

- let the second rite begin.

Quick, inside.

That won't reach the wall.

We can't get inside.

-Elora Danan will die.

-Unless we save her.

- Bavmorda's too powerful.

-No!

She cannot transform you again.

My spell is protecting this camp.

But can your magic

get us inside the fortress?

We can't do it.

Wait. Back home in my village.

we have a lot of gophers.

- Willow, this is war, not agriculture...

- I know, I know.

But I've an idea

how to get inside the castle.

-Ocht vethbordakstira.

Ocht veth bordak stira.

Come on, Madmartigan.

you and I are soldiers.

You and I know the peck's plan

will never work.

If the baby dies, all hope

for the future is lost.

I'm going to fight.

Me too.

All right, we've got to decide

who's gonna go and who's gonna stay.

Raziel.

Willow, all these years...
