Hirokin

Where is moss?

Where is moss?

Do as you must.

Mmm.

- Moss?

- We'll never betray our own people.

Viceroy, our king, my lord,

such deeds should be left for

those better suited for them.

Arid

or human, they must

all admire you.

Admiration

is short-lived.

Then think of economics.

At this rate,

there will be no strong men for

either work or entertainment.

Take him to the pit.

Rest assured

I shall find moss.

And when I do,

I will destroy him

and his gig beliefs.

They are close.

Human.

I can see that.

Hirokin?

It's not good

to know each other.

How are we going to make

our world safe for them,

for our children?

These humans,

they come to our planet,

they steal our resources,

they spread infertility

among our women

and what did we do? We stood

idly by and watched 'em.

How long are we going to allow

the Griffin to enslave us,

to take our men,

to torture our women?

Are we that different

from these humans

because our palms

reveal our blood?

How does it come that a human

can treat an arid so warmly?

Not all humans are

the same, my beloved.

Wait here.

Viceroy?

What is your bidding?

So?

And the shavings of aradium

will make your weapon soar.

My people do not need to be told

the properties of our aradium.

So.

I have the cure here.

Apostate!

- You!

- What?

- I knew we couldn't trust a human.

- I didn't.

- Well then help us.

- Run!

Kill them all.

My advice to you... run.

Get word to moss...

he must retreat.

If word does not get to moss on

time, the rebellion will fail.

Yes sir.

Don't touch her, human!

Come on.

- Are you okay?

- Yeah.

Which one?

Finley.

That was seven years ago.

I know.

You know,

we don't have to do this.

I'll be back before first meal.

We've come so close.

We can't turn back now.

We're really close

to the horde.

Deacons could be anywhere.

We can't turn back now.

If I get this trade,

we can live anywhere.

And nuran, he'll have a future.

Blue tea.

We all do what we have to do.

Last I heard your name,

it was tied to the massacre

at the town of eleven.

You believe

everything you hear?

Only half of what I see.

It's not what we discussed.

- This is better.

- Not for you to decide.

This is all I have.

Hirokin!

You're the only man within

weeks of here with the cure.

Then you understand its value.

Mercy, brother.

Mercy.

My child is sick.

She needs that medicine.

- Those who will not help

cannot be helped.

I know who you are.

Do you?

How can you be so selfish?

We all do what we must.

- Deacons!

- Deacons, deacons!

Run, go now!

Nuran? Nuran!

Go! Get inside!

It's time to practice

our cloaking.

Quickly, sweetheart, quickly.

- It's okay.

- Completely silent, nuran,

like we practiced.

Shhh.

Show yourselves.

Come out.

Human, I'm human.

We thought you were vandals,

so we took cover.

We don't want any trouble.

We're just passing through.

Have you seen

an arid named moss?

No.

I see she wears

the arid ribbon.

Did she bear that child?

Yes.

We were just passing through. Come,

we have a long walk ahead of us.

Uh-uh-uh-uh.

Where are you headed?

East, following the food.

I have something

for you. Easy.

It's worth at least 100 gigs.

More like a thousand.

Just let us go, it's all yours.

I'll decide what's mine.

We don't want any trouble.

Trouble?

Oh, my friend,

you're in a world of trouble.

Run.

Come on.

No!

Take this one to the pit.

Perhaps he'll do better there.

- Attention,

the games will begin

in 10 marks.

Attention, place your bets.

The games will begin

in 10 marks.

My daughters...

this is the last place

I wanted to see them.

They want to know what

you're willing to die for.

- All right, keep it going.

- Take a sip.

Keep it going. Here you go.

Have it.

- Come on, speed up the line.

- That's enough.

All right. Next one.

Step on up.

- That's enough there.

Get going.

Here you go. All right,

all right, all right.

Here he comes.

Here he comes.

- Hey, one sip.

- Ugh.

- They say he's a sympathizer.

- An arid sympathizing.

Uh-hmm, close with

the rebel leader moss.

Well, I have an idea.

Let's sell him the gig blade

that the human brought.

Yeah, but what if he tries

to rip us off again?

Simple... whatever he

asks, we want five.

- Five.

- Five.

And what do you have for me

today, gentlemen?

- Love stick.

- Attention.

The games will begin...

The gig kind.

What, are you just gonna

look at it all day?

- Attention...

- It's looking good on you.

Oh yeah... really

brings out your eyes.

Two palm roots for this one.

Five.

Five.

It's worth at least five.

Five?

Seriously?

What human wants an arid blade?

They're too heavy

to be of any use.

Oh no, you don't.

If you want it, that means

it's worth something.

- You're not gonna rip us off again.

- Rip you off?

Gentlemen, have you

entirely forgotten

that precious blue tea

I brought you?

Yeah, I remember.

Oh yeah.

Oh wow, that...

- that was great blue tea.

- Really great.

- It was really great.

- Two.

I think two is good.

We should take two.

I thought you wanted five?

All right, but two's good.

Let's just take two.

All right.

Deal and we'll call it even.

Almost.

So why don't we add

this little trinket here

and we have a deal.

Two blue.

Two for two.

All right, that's a deal!

You wanted five. I

wouldn't get five.

This belong to you?

They say you were defending
