The episode starts with Viren and Claudia in the cave looking at Aaravos' chrysalis pulsating and emanating white light. Claudia reaches out her hand and touches the chrysalis .
Viren So, when might we expect the emergence of our mysterious guide?
Claudia The being needs our help to arrive.
Claudia walks to the wall of the cave and uses the corrupted Sun staff to make a shimmering portal to the outside. Viren watches Claudia walk outside, then follows her. Terry pokes the chrysalis. When Viren steps outside he shields his eyes from the bright sunlight.
Claudia To open the chrysalis, we need your staff.
Viren And I take it you did not find my staff beside my crumpled body?
Claudia Unfortunately, when you fell, you left the staff up there, at the tip-top of the Storm Spire.
Viren Oh.
In a flashback, Viren can be seen screaming while falling down the Storm Spire. In the present he grips his head.
Claudia So, we have to go back up there.
Viren Uh.
Terry Such a lovely day! Who's ready for an exhausting climb?
Viren stares skyward, to the top of the spire.
Scene Change
At Katolis Castle Callum enters the rookery and finds the Associate Crow Lord staring up at the ceiling.
Associate Crow Lord Hey, you're that guy waiting for that fancy book. Well, it's here.
Callum That's great, can I please.
Associate Crow Lord So crazy. When it arrived this morning, it blew my mind! Well, m-more than my mind, actually.
Callum Uh, I have a busy day, i-if you wouldn't mind just giving me the.
Associate Crow Lord It wasn't carried by a normal crow, no. It was this wild, magical Xadian bird!
A bird with shimmering pastel plumage sits on a cage above them.
Associate Crow Lord I had never seen anything like it. Flew right in surrounded by glowing sparkles and shiny bits. I mean, when it arrived, I literally... [whispers] Let's just say these aren't the same trousers I wore to work this morning. [normal voice] Here it is!
Callum [gasps] This is just what I need!
Outside, Ezran and Corvus turn and watch Callum run to the gate with the book in his hand. He narrowly misses running into a guard with a horse.
Ezran Wow, someone's in a good mood!
Callum Sorry! Can't stop. [laughs] Ugh, I love books!
Ezran He's right. Books are great.
Corvus King Ezran, I must confess. I was impressed with your vision for using the Dragon Queen's visit as a catalyst for growing trust and peace across the continent.
Ezran Thanks, Corvus!
Corvus But tell the truth. Is it really about changing the world, or is it just an excuse to get Zym to come visit?
Ezran Can't it be both? It's been four months since I've seen him. I just miss him so much, I wanna squeeze his zappy little cheeks! [imitates zapping sounds]
Scene Change
Claudia and Terry easily ascend a trail of stone steps carved into the side of the Storm Spire. Viren and struggles behind them while panting and gasping. He stops and looks over the steep stone edge.
Viren [Gasps]
He falters backwards impresses his back to the Spire while beads of sweat fall down his face. He grips the rocks and follows Claudia and Terry.
Scene Change
In the Dragon Queen’s lair, Ibis stands with Zym.
Ibis This is a matter of utmost urgency! The situation demands action.
Zym [Whimpers]
Ibis This is not a choice, Zym. Your mother insisted that before your journey to Katolis, you must consume the proper vegetables.
A pile of vegetables lies in front of Zym.
Zym [Sniffs, gags and whines]
Ibis They're just vegetables! Fresh and delicious and nutritious.
Zym [Groans]
Ibis You do realize I'm one of the most powerful sky mages in history, a legendary master of the four winds... and I'm reduced to this, convincing you, a stubborn dragonling, to eat his veggies.
Zym [Whines]
Ibis Well, you're welcome. How about we try it this way?
He points his staff at a zucchini levitates.
Ibis Oh, look, here comes the delicious Zucchini-phoenix, flying into your mouth! Whoo, whoo, whoo!
Zym grins and shoots the zucchini down with lightning.
Ibis Oh! You shot it down!
Zym [Roars]
The earth starts to rumble and rocks fall down from the ceiling. Approaching footsteps can be heard.
Ibis [Gulps] Listen to me, young Azymondias, the Dragon Queen will be mad at you, and she'll be furious with me if you don't. [gasps]
Zubeia and Pyrrah enter the room. Ibis conjures went around the vegetables and hurls them to the side.
Zubeia Zym. Did you finish your dinner?
Zym [Whines]
Ibis Every last morsel! [chuckles] Such a good boy.
Zubeia Wonderful. Thank you, Ibis. I'm sure King Ezran eats all of his vegetables, too.
Pyrrah [Growls]
Zym [Whines]
Zubeia Almost time for our big journey.
Zubeia swings long neck around and leaves the lair. Ibis and Zym nuzzle
Scene Change
Outside the vegetables tumble down to the side of the Storm Spire. Viren, Claudia and Terry rest on a plateau.
Claudia Hey, Dad, I know what'll take your mind off the climb! Terry will tell you about some of his wondrous Earthblood elf powers.
Viren [Stammers] Really, that won't be necessary.
Terry Ah, it'll be my pleasure! See that plant right there? [cracks his knuckles]
A grid of geometric shapes glows on his skin. His eyes open and glow with a yellow light. He conjures an orb of energy and guides it to the plant. After that his skin and eyes return to normal and he points to the plant. Viren raises an eyebrow.
Viren Uh-huh.
Terry [Chuckles] It's a Xadiazalea. I just gave it a bit of extra grow-magic. [laughs]
Viren [Clears throat] Nothing happened.
Terry Yet! Should bloom a week or two early. On average, give or take.
Viren [Groans]
Claudia Amazing, baby! [laughs]
Claudia and Terry high five.
Claudia Dad, we call it a high four and a half, because I bring five and he brings four. Isn't that hilarious?
Viren looks ahead with a straight face.
Claudia Ooh, ooh! I know. Tell my dad what it smells like when you pass gas.
Viren I do not need to know this.
Terry [Clears throat] Petrichor.
Viren Uh...
Claudia Petrichor, Dad. It's the smell of fresh rain hitting dry stones! It smells so good when he farts!
Viren gives a doubtful look then follows Claudia and Terry up the stairs.
Scene Change
The city of the Sunfire Elves now lies in ruins. In the background the corrupted Sunforge of Lux Aurea can be seen. The Queen's royal tent lies among the makeshift refugee camp. Inside Janai and Amaya stand together as they are greeted reverently with Sunfire salutes. Gren enters the tent wearing a floral headpiece and sash. He approaches the couple and signs to Amaya.
Gren I am so happy for you both. You'll be the world's most formidable couple!
Gren hugs both Janai and Amaya, who both laugh. Karim comes and walks up to the three of them.
Karim Well, sister, it can finally be said. You have met your match! What a beautiful couple.
Gren [Interpreting for Amaya] "Thank you, Prince Karim. Now that you'll officially be my little brother, I'll try not to beat you up too much."
Janai [Giggles]
Karim [Laughs]
Amaya gives Gren a playful shove then walks away with him.
Janai Hey, what? Something's on your mind.
Karim No. I’m good.
Janai Tell me. I'm not above tickling the truth out of you if I have to!
Karim casts a sorrowful face to Amaya and Gren.
Karim [Whispers] I have concerns. Not here.
Karim walks out of the tent and Janai follows. Amaya and Gren spot them leaving. Amaya frowns
Scene Change
At the Storm Spire, Claudia and Terry step through an ornate gate. Viren follows closely behind and steadies himself against a rock.
Viren [Panting] Did they move this gateway higher? It seems like it's higher than it was before. This… This is absolutely exhausting.
Claudia Maybe now's a good time for a breathing spell, huh?
Terry Who likes breathing? This elf!
Claudia Three poofed-up puffer-bats, coming right up!
Claudia hands one of the puffer-bats to Viren then starts chanting.
Claudia Efil fo htaerb su niatsus. {Sustain us. Breath of life)
Purple energy emanates from the puffer-bats then rises and enters their mouths. They all exhale deeply.
Terry Ah. [clicks tongue] Dark magic's got a bit of a tingly aftertaste. Nobody ever tells you that!
Claudia and Terry continue up the steps.
Viren [Sighs]
Scene Change
In his office Callum paces with the book in hand while Bait sits on the table.
Callum I don't get it.
Bait [Groans]
Callum This tome seems like it has just about every rune and symbol in history... but nothing matches the writing on the mirror.
He runs his hand over a rune carved into the Magic Mirror.
Callum Wait, what is this? Ah!
Bait [Grunts]
Callum The whole last half of the book is empty!
Bait [Croaks]
Callum Blank, blank, blank, blank, blank, blank. Blankity, blankity, blank! [gasps] This is... This is not a Tome of Translation. It's barely a Pamphlet of Pathetic! Ugh!
Bait [Grunts]
Callum [Sighs] Now what?
Bait [Whines]
Scene Change
Outside the Storm Spire, Viren falters as he climbs.
Viren [Pants] Something's not right. Claudia, are you sure you did the breathing spell correctly?
Claudia Yeah, of course.
Viren Uh, the puffer-bats, d-did you capture each of them at peak-of-puff? Because it's tricky, and if you're even a moment off.
Claudia Dad, I did it right! You know I'm perfectionish.
Terry You mean a perfectionist?
Claudia No, "-ish." But Dad, the spell is working. You're fine.
Viren [Wheezes] No. No, I'm not fine. [gasps]
Viren clutches at his collar and then faints. Later, Terry stands over Viren as he opens his eyes.
Terry [Muffled] Lord Viren? [Normal voice] There, there, you're okay now.
Viren bolts upright and clutches his chest.
Terry Just a little panic attack. There's no shame in that.
Viren Uh, I… I blacked out?
Terry Sometimes, all the little bits of stress and anxieties come together and add up, turn into kind of a big thing, and, psh, down you go. Used to happen to me all the time when I was a sapling.
Viren peers over the edge of the cliff.
Viren [Gasps] [grunts] No. We’re too high. I can't do this. [pants].
Claudia Dad, I believe in you. And we'll be right here, by your side. But we have to keep moving, okay?
Viren stands up and walks over to the next set of stairs.
Terry You're the legendary Lord Viren. You shouldn't have a fear of heights! Heights should fear you.
Viren Terry, I died falling off this mountain.
Terry But only the one time!
Viren [Rolls his eyes and sighs]
Scene Change
In his office, Callum holds his head in his hands.
Callum I was so excited about this book, Bait, this incredibly rare tome from Xadia. I was sure it would translate the symbols on the mirror, but no luck. And half the book is blank!
Callum pounds his fist on the table and splatters ink on a blank page. The same mark appears on the adjacent page. Bait sports the mark and nudges the inkwell closer to Callum.
Bait [Growls]
Callum Wait. Why are you trying to give me ink?
Bait [Grunts and looks at the book]
Callum Maybe the blank pages are to write on, and-and-and it magically translates it on the other side! Is that what you're saying, Bait?
Bait [Grunts and nods]
Callum picks up a quill, dips it in the inkwell and turns the page.
Callum Am I about to vandalize an ancient book?
Bait [Growls]
Callum I guess it wouldn't be the first time I accidentally on purpose ruined a super rare magical artifact. [laughs] Okay, here goes.
He looks across the room at the mirror and copies the rune symbols from the mirror onto the blank page.
Callum [Gasps] It's working!
Bait [Grunts]
Scene Change
At the Sunfire Elf camp, the sun dips low on the horizon. Janai walks with Karim past tents and carts on a marketplace. She greets elves with a Sunfire Elf salute.
Janai Karim, you are my kid brother. I'm supposed to criticize your love life, not the other way around.
Karim Janai, I have nothing to criticize about Amaya. I love Amaya! She is strong and funny and she makes you happy.
Janai Yes, so why are you being strange and dour about my decision to marry her?
Karim It's the symbolism, sister! You are Queen now.
Janai I never wanted to be Queen.
Karim But you are!
Behind Karim some elves react in shock. Janai arches is her eyebrow then steps aside with Karim.
Karim What message do you think it gives the people if you choose to marry a human?
Janai There's no message. The only message is that I've chosen this amazing woman as my wife.
Karim No, it confirms their fears, that this Empire is ending, that the rising Sun is now a falling star!
Janai What is this nonsense?
Karim Look around you. We lost Lux Aurea, our great capital, and we were not able to reclaim it. Our people live in this… this camp! In makeshift tents!
Janai It's temporary, Karim. You know that.
Karim The marriage will tell the people that it is not temporary. It will confirm their fear that these humans are not our guests.
Janai They are our guests. What are you afraid of?
Karim Humans cannot become a permanent.
Janai We are done with this conversation.
Janai walks away.
Karim You can have what you want, you know. Without the symbolism.
Janai stops.
Karim You can live with Amaya as if you are married. You can enjoy every day of your lives together, just as you would. But do not make it official. Do not make it a symbol.
As Janai leaves, Karim turns to stares at a dark cloud that looms over Lux Aurea on the horizon.
Scene Change
Viren steps sideways along a narrow ledge, sweat rolling down his face.
Viren [Groans, then gasps]
Claudia You can do this, Dad! You just have to lean back and don't look down.
Viren I’m not looking down! Aah! Ugh, are you sure we're making progress a-and this "shortcut" will get us somewhere?
Terry Fairly sure.
Claudia [Scowls]
Terry I mean, totally sure. Uh, rock solid certain. [laughs] Whoop! [laughs] Ignore that.
Claudia Hey! Do I smell petrichor?
Terry Guilty as charged!
Claudia and Terry laugh while Terry keeps farting.
Terry Whoops, couple more little chuckle-puffs there.
Claudia [laughs] Chuckle-puffs is what Terry calls laughing farts.
Viren [groans] For the sake of...
Viren takes a step and rocks crumble off the edge.
Viren Oh, no. No, no, no. I-It's cracking and collapsing beneath us!
Claudia Dad, calm down, it's not crumbling.
Viren I'm going to fall!
Claudia Dad, you just need to calm down!
Viren [Whimpers]
Terry moves closer to Viren.
Viren [Screams]
Viren passes out, then falls from the ledge.
Terry No!
His body lurches, Claudia conjures a pink energy tentacle that keeps him from falling. Purple light glows in her eyes.
Viren sits on the edge of a broader ledge and stares out at the sunset. Claudia sets the Sun staff against the spire and walks over to him.
Viren [exhales] I almost died.
Claudia Again.
Viren [laughs] Again! [sighs] My whole life, I've been chasing after things I didn't have. Influence. Status. Power.
Viren stands and starts pacing.
Viren Now that I'm here, and I may have only 30 days left, do I really want to spend all those days chasing? Maybe I should stop... and appreciate what I do have, a-a month of life. Living each day to the fullest, watching beautiful sunsets together. Laughing, and enjoying every moment with my daughter, who is the most special person I have ever known.
Viren cups Claudia’s face, who cries.
Viren Uh, we could travel the countryside and try the seven cakes of Xadia! [sighs] I-I-I've spent my whole life striving to become someone different. Maybe it's time to accept that I am who I am for the days I have remaining. And when I reach the end, I will be at peace. And it... It will just be my time to let go.
Claudia covers her face with her hand. Then she reaches out and slaps Viren in the face.
Viren [grunts] Wha.
Claudia You are not letting go, Dad! Not as long as you've got me by your side. I brought you back from the dead, and I am not about to let you go!
Zubeia [Growls]
Zubeia, Zym and Pyrrah fly overhead.
Claudia You see? That's a sign! The dragons are leaving! We don't even have to sneak in now. We'll be able to get your staff back without any trouble. You don't have to have to keep climbing, Dad. You can head back down the Spire. Terry and I will retrieve the staff.
Claudia hugs Viren.
Claudia I'm going to take care of you, Dad. Everything is going to be okay.
Viren accepts Claudia’s hug, a tear streaming down his face.
Scene Change
Inside the royal tent, Janai sits at a low table. Amaya enters and gently turns Janai’s head and kisses her forehead. Amaya sits down beside Janai and signs.
Janai Of course we're not moving too fast. I love you, and I'm ready to marry you.
She gently touches Amaya's cheek. Amaya kisses Janai's hand. Amaya signs again.
Janai [Sighs] You don't mean us... you mean humans and elves.
Amaya gives a solemn nod.
Janai I don't know. I just don't know.
Janai hangs her head. Amaya moves closer and puts her arm around Janai.
Scene Change
At Katolis Castle, the full moon shines outside Callum’s office window. Callum sketches the last runes in the tome.
Callum Almost done, Bait. Just one last rune symbol.
He copies the symbols from the mirror in an ovoid shape, they replicate themselves on the adjacent page. Then the symbols on the adjacent page start to swirl. Callum and Bait watch the symbols swirl into words.
Callum It's working! The tome is giving me a translation.
Callum picks up the tome and crosses to the mirror while a creature scuttles past. Bait notices something and turns red and blue.
Callum "In Darkness, Gaze Upon a Fallen Star." In darkness, gaze upon a Fallen Star...
Bait [Growls]
Callum What is it, Bait? Why are you looking at the Cube? Wow.
A bright purple light shines from the Star rune on the Key of Aaravos.
Callum I wonder what. [gasps]
The creature pounces on the Key of Aaravos, then runs off with it.
Callum Uh, what was that? Where did it go?
Callum holds out a candle and scans the room. The creature scampers up a see-through figure holding the Key of Aaravos in its striped tail. Callum turns around and watches Rayla materialise.
Callum [Gasps]
Rayla lowers her hood and steps forward with the creature on her shoulder.
Rayla Hey.
Fades to credits.
