A dying race ruled by a dying emperor...
A dying race...
A Gelfling alive?
A live Gelfling
A shard of the Crystal
A Shard. A Crystal Shard
A slave
A thousand years ago, the Crystal cracked
A thousand years ago, there was a Great Conjunction
A thousand years ago, this land was green and good...
A tree. My mother puts me right inside, and we...
Ah, there it is
Ah, yes. Essence of Gelfling
All of you, get down!
All right. Alone, then
All right. Together, then
All the secrets
Am friend
Am I supposed to take it somewhere?
Am outcast
And a journey must begin...
And here, far from the castle...
And I can nearly forget everything that happened
And I must leave you
And now, the prophecy...
And our world split apart
And restored the true power...
And sacrifice...
And talk with flowers and all the living things
And that everything must be done before the three suns join in one
And two new races appeared:
And what are those funny marks?
And you are part of it
And you have no time
And, Master, you showed me the whole valley stretching out
Another Great Conjunction coming up
Another time...
Another world...
Anything could happen
Are you a Gelfling?
Are you afraid of me?
Are you Aughra?
Aren't these the people from your memory?
As for the whimpering Chamberlain, return his robes to him
As the first sun climbs to its peak...
As we all are part of each other
At the time...
Attack!
Aughra holds the Shard
Aughra, what do I do with the Shard?
Aughra?
Aughra? Follow the greater sun?
Away! Away!
Awful. So awful
Back!
Bad things happened in here once
Because of the prophecy, we must kill the Gelfling!
Before the three suns meet
Better have your Shard before that, Gelfling
Better when we used Gelflings
Big change
Bow!
But Aughra knows
But how do I choose?
But how?
But I am friend, save you from Garthim
But I thought I was the only one
But Master, I'm only a Gelfling
But not again in this one
But there is a prophecy
But they were Gelfling...
But today...
But what do I do with it?
But you donΓ­t know what to do with it
But you're a Skekses
But, sire, you could drink her essence
By Gelfling hand, or else by none. "
By Gelfling hand? Do you know what that means?
Careful
Chamberlain, no. Wait. Stop. You can't
Chamberlain!
Chamberlain. Chamberlain, get out
Come
Come
Come and look! Such an ugly monster!
Come on
Come on
Come on, Kira
Come on, slaves! Pull!
Come on, then
Come on. Run
Come, we'll show them. Gelflings live with Skekses together in peace
Come. Please
Come. Yes
Crystal bats, fly!
Dangle and strangle to death!
Dear friend, be well
Dear, dear Master...
Dessert! Crawlies!
Do not be afraid. I am here to help you. Yes
Do you want a Shard? Here
Don't be afraid
Don't leave me
Don't move
DonΓ­t know
DonΓ­t know
Down, down. Fizzgig, no
Easier to send your crab brained soldiers, burn my home!
Eat!
Enchanting meal
End of Aughra
End, begin. All the same
Essence. Drain her essence
Everything in the heavens is here...
Everywhere I go, I learn the shapes of kindness
Feel the power of the Dark Crystal
Fight them. Fight
Find that Gelfling now!
First Aughra's, then your village
First thing I remember is the kind one
Fizzgig
Fizzgig
Fizzgig, come on
Follow the greater sun for a day...
For a single piece was lost...
For a thousand years they have ruled...
For the prophecy says...
For this is the way of the Skekses,
For today his master lies dying...
For today his master lies dying...
Garthim soldiers, find the Gelfling!
Garthim, death to Gelfling!
Garthim, get out!
Garthim!
Gelfling, no
Gelfling, you die!
Gelfling...
Gelfling...
Gelfling...
General!
Get back, spithead!
Get down, Fizzgig. Quiet
Get him
Get off!
Get out
Get out there! Move!
Give us the Shard, and you can go tree
Go kill the Gelfling!
Gone! Gelfling gone. Stupid Garthim
Good hit, Lord Chamberlain!
Hail to the new emperor!
Hail!
Hang on
Hang on, Jen. They go fast
Harder! Pull!
Has escaped, huh?
Have made us whole...
He picks me up. He makes the monsters disappear, and I'd be safe
He saved us from his own Garthim
He shows me numbers and things called words
He'll come, make you crawl, like the worms you are
He's here! Close it, slave!
Heal the Dark Crystal
Hear it almost
HeΓ­s nervous
Here he goes
Here, Skekses are watching always. We must go
Here. I'll help you out
Here. This moss'll make it better
Hold her to you
How did you get out there?
How do you say "thank you"?
How else can I make the prediction?
Hurry
Hurry
Hurry!
I am emperor!
I am safe
I am still emperor
I can feel something
I challenge
I don't like this
I don't understand
I donΓ­t have wings
I donΓ­t think anywhere is safe anymore
I fear, to death
I hate your whimper
I have caught her. I bring you the Gelfling
I have told you of the Skekses
I know, but we have no choice
I learn from them all, except there's no one here like me
I like those gray ones that go mushy when you put them on your fork
I love them all, except I need to find...
I miss the other masters with the old, old magic and chants
I never loved them enough
I should've told you these things...
I suffered horrible, searing pain
I thought I was
I thought it went on forever. Kira, watch out!
I want to go back. I smell death here
I was there
I was wounded
I wish I'd never heard of this Shard
I...
I...
I... I have done this
I'll find the Shard
I'll get my eye to you
I'll show them
I'll show you
I'm not a hero, not the way you wanted
I'm not ready to go alone
I'm taking it
If I make peace, am outcast no more
IΓ­m having a bath
Imprisoned within themselves in a dying land
In a blur of forgetfulness
In our arrogance and delusion...
In the age of wonder
In the valley of the Mystics...
Is fulfilled
Is that all you want? A Crystal Shard?
Is that it, Gelfling? You don't know?
Is that the Crystal?
Is that what you want to know?
It always worked...
It is time...
It not, Skekses rule forever
It seems to me that Gelfling...
It should be me
It wasn't your fault
It's a landstrider
It's a prophecy. He told me that I must find the Shard...
It's a war, I think
It's called the Great... the Great something or other
It's me
It's one of these three, IΓ­m sure
ItΓ­s time to make my move
Jen, get down. Down
Jen, this way!
Jen, what's the Shard for?
Jen! Let go
Jen? Here's the Shard
Just look at this
Kill her!
Kill her! We are sworn to kill all Gelflings!
Kira
Kira, fight them
Kira, you don't have to go
Kneel!
Lay down that scepter!
Leave me?
Let go of me
Let go of me! Jen!
Let's pull that rope!
Let's see what you can do
Let's see. Her name is Aughra
Let's take her essence. Yes
Liar!
Like us
Listen, Gelfling
Look here
Look into the reflector, Podling
Look. The Garthim return
Lord Chamberlain!
Lords? Not for long
Make your world...
Many ages ago...
Master
Master, no
Master, nothing is simple anymore
Master, whatΓ­s wrong?
Master?
Master? Master?
Maybe she murders Gelflings
Me, the emperor!
Mine!
Mine!
Moldy mildew mother of mouthmuck!
More food. More food!
Mother! Mother, the monster!
Moving as the heavens move
Must seize the throne
My hand!
My Lord Chamberlain
My master is family, teacher and friend
No Gelfling ever escaped from my deadly Garthim
No one told you that, did they?
No time. "When single shines the triple sun... "
No, Fizzgig. You stay here
No, Fizzgig. You stay with Jen
No, Jen!
No, Jen. Heal the Crystal
No!
No! Leave her alone!
No! Please! Must listen
No! She's mine!
No! Wait!
No. First we take her essence, then kill
No. Garthim!
Not bad at all
Not him. I must rule
Now home gone, Gelfling gone. Nothing but Aughra!
Now I know what I have to do. How do I get to the castle?
Now IΓ­ve got the Shard...
Now it is up to you
Now it must be healed...
Now the Skekses gather in the sacred chamber...
Now the Skekses will have power over the stars!
Now we leave you...
Now we send forth Jen
Now where am I?
Now, bow down to me!
Now, by the law, he must pay
Now, Podling
Now, you donΓ­t know what to do with it
Of course I'm no Gelfling, you putrid lizards!
Of your fears, your thoughts...
Oh, all right. Come on
Oh, how crude!
Oh, Jen, they hurt your arm
Oh, Master, I remember the valley
Oh, Master, I remember the valley
Oh, Master, I'll go where you send me...
Oh, no
Oh, no. I'm sinking
Oh, no. Right in the mud
Oh, this is all writing
Oh, yes, my Lord Chamberlain...
One
One of these things?
Only Jen survived...
Only the emperor can drink your essence
Ooh, dessert!
Open the wall!
Or pass forever into the rule of evil
Or the beginning
Out! Get out!
Over here!
Ow! Oh, no
Please
Please make peace!
Please, come to the castle. Please!
Please? Wait!
Please. Yes. Please?
Position the reflector
Prophecy?
Prophecy. Prophecy cause all this trouble
Prophets don't know everything
Questions, questions. Too many questions
Quiet, all of you
Quiet, Gelfling. Be quiet
Quiet!
Receive them serenely
Receive your belongings
Release the Gelfling
Remember me, Jen
Roast Nebrie. I want the rare piece
Rotten!
Royal sire, I bring you Gelfling
Search the land! Search the water!
Shall be whole, the two made one...
She is part of you...
She was with him. She helped him. Where is he?
She will destroy us!
Show them Gelflings will not harm us. Please
Show them you want peace
Silence, animals!
Silence. Silence, animals
Slave squeezer!
Slaves
Slaves, pull!
Slaves!
So, my hand
So, too, they learn to draw new life from the sun
Some directions.
Something got in my teeth
Sometimes bad
Sometimes good
Stay. Am friend
Stop. Stop him
Suns, moons, stars...
Take her essence
Take him down
Take it from her. Now
Take the first blow, Chamberlain!
Take your hands off...
That a Gelfling will end Skekses power?
That... That looks just like the Shard
That's how I know it's coming
That's just it. I don't know. I found the Shard
That's when the Crystal cracked
That's when the Skekses appeared, and the Mystics
The Crystal
The Crystal of Truth
The Crystal Shard
The Crystal Shard?
The Dark Crystal
The Dark Crystal
The emperor is dead
The emperor wins
The Garthim have always come
The Garthim! They capture the Podlings
The Gelfling
The Gelfling all dead. Garthim kill them all
The Gelfling must die
The Gelfling!
The generalΓ­s really mad now
The gentle Mystics
The Great Conjunction comes
The Great Conjunction comes
The Great Conjunction is at hand
The Great Conjunction is the end of the world...
The prophecy didn't say anything about this
The prophecy says Gelfling will destroy us.
The pure Crystal...
The reflector will capture the beams...
The ritual gives no comfort
The Shard
The Shard
The Shard is mine
The Skekses killed my mother and father
The Skekses will vow...
The Skekses, with their hard and twisted bodies...
The story runs deeper than you know...
The Three Suns
Their harsh and twisted wills
Their treasure, their fate:
Their ways were the gentle ways of natural wizards
Then I am happy
Then strife began...
There
There is much to be learned...
There lives a Gelfling, Jen
There she knows...
There's going to be a fight
These are ruins
They were all killed by the Skekses long ago
They're my clan
They're the houses of the old ones
TheyΓ­re coming!
This is a piece of the Dark Crystal
This is how to know when, that's what
This is no Gelfling!
This is what I came for
This must lead into the lower part
This place is weird
Though I barely understand
Three suns lined up
Time to choose an emperor
Time to return to the castle
To be raised by the wisest of the Mystics
To destroy you...
To save our world, Gelfling...
To the Crystal chamber!
To the home of Aughra
To the home of Aughra
Today the wisest of the Mystics lies dying
Today they summon the one who must save them
Today they summon the one who must save them
Today, a new emperor...
Today, Jen's pipe gives no comfort...
Today, once more they gather at the Crystal...
Today, once more, they will replenish themselves...
Trial by stone
Trial by stone!
Until the Crystal cracked
Very soon, three suns touch
Very strong, sire
Wait
Wait, please?
Wait! They won't find us here
Wait. Please, sire
Watch out, Kira!
Watch over his dangerous quest
Watch your tongue, harridan. We are lords of the Crystal
We are again...
We have to go on
We just want to drain your living essence
We may meet in another life...
We shattered...
We were dreamtasted, you and I
We will live forever
We're all with you
Weak blow! Weak blow
Well, yes
What am I doing here?
What do you want of me?
What do you want with me?
What does it mean?
What in the world?
What is it?
What is the Conjunction?
What they see, the Skekses see too
What was sundered and undone...
What's happening?
What's it for, hmm?
What's so special about this Shard?
What's the Great Conjunction?
What's writing?
When I was little, I used to get fed by my new mom
When the Garthim killed my parents, the Podlings adopted me
When three suns meet...
Where is he? Around here?
Where is it?
Where the Crystal hangs above a shaft of air and fire
Where would I go?
Where's Kira?
Which one is it?
Which one of us will be the new emperor?
Which one? Which one is it?
Which way now?
Who is Aughra, anyway?
Whole world might burn up
Wings
Words that stay. My master told me
Yeah!
Yes
Yes
Yes, the angle of eternity
Yes, young!
Yes!
Yes! And now the beam will rid you...
Yes. A way into the castle
Yes. Big help you've been
Yes. My name is Jen
Yet now there are only ten
Yet now, there are only ten
You are in danger...
You can do it!
You can't be Gelfling
You canΓ­t beat that
You Gelfling, like me?
You have the gift. Call them to freedom. Loud
You know the three suns in the sky? They're going to come together soon
You look like Gelfling, smell like Gelfling
You mean, our ancestors?
You must find the Shard...
You must find the Shard...
You should be the emperor
You slime face!
You want Gelfling, why not ask me?
You want to know what this is all about?
You whimpering worm
You, Kira, call the animals
You're next, little Podling
You're very lucky, slave
You've already taken too long, Gelfling. Hurry
You've come too late, Gelfling
You've never looked at the heavens
YouΓ­re a boy
Young!
Your courage...
Your name is Kira

Yuck!
A Gelfling A Gelfling?
Ah, Gelfling! Gelfling! Gelfling! Gelfling!
Aughra, youΓ­re alive No time

Did it see us? No, I donΓ­t think so
Drain her first, then kill her Drain her!
Gelfling A Gelfling
He's dead Could be anywhere, then
I have to put it... You have to heal... the Dark Crystal
Is it ready? Very fresh
It's all my fault That Skekses...
ItΓ­s going away ItΓ­s going away
Jen, Skekses! Stay! Stay! No!
Kira, are you all right? Yes, but weΓ­ve got to get them out

Will you stop the Garthim attacks? Yes!
Yes Let go
