And we'll all share in her fate.

Oh, no. I've got

to get out of here.

I have to find her.

Wait now.

You still have a chance.

Follow this, it will lead

you through the tunnel.

Mind, it won't be easy.

Macha has lost all hope.

And she will try and

make you lose hope, too.

The selkie will not last long

beyond dawn without her coat.

You must hurry.

Okay.

Oh. And be careful.

Why? What's down there?

Uh...

Lad go on with yourself.

Not bad.

Bye.

Who said that?

Mum.

I can't wait for

the baby to come.

We're going to be

best friends, aren't we?

You're going to be the best

big brother in the world.

Bronach?

I'm so sorry.

Bronach?

Mum?

Bronach!

Bronach!

I've no more time,

I have to save our baby.

Bronach!

I'm so sorry.

Bronach!

Bronach!

Dad?

Dad, where's Mum?

Where's Mum?

Dad?

Say hello to Saoirse.

This is your sister.

You're her big brother.

You must always look after her.

Okay, okay.

Be careful!

Be brave!

Ahh!

Down here. Be careful in there.

Beware of the jars!

Good luck.

Be careful in there.

- Watch it!

- The Owl Witch.

- Good luck.

- Be careful.

Mind her jars.

The Owl Witch, beware!

- Go safe.

- Mind yourself.

- Mind yourself.

- Beware!

Okay.

Ooh.

You look wet and tired,

human child.

Macha?

I am she.

Really?

The Owl Witch from the stories?

Well, now,

those stories always

paint me as the bad one.

But I'm not so terrible,

you know.

I'm just trying

to help everyone.

Yeah, well, what's in

all these jars then?

Just nasty things, you know.

Nobody needs them.

I know you have my sister.

Let her go!

Now, now, now, the selkie

child is safe and sound.

Don't you worry.

I have taken good care

of the poor little thing.

You're half turned to stone.

Saoirse can help you.

She can help all of you.

Ah, she can't help,

not really help.

Not the way I do.

I see it, Ben, your pain.

You're so full of emotions.

I can see them in your face.

Nasty, terrible things.

They make you feel so awful.

You worry so much

for such a young boy, don't you?

You lost your mother,

didn't you?

My son lost someone,

too, a long time ago.

But I found away to help him.

Now, if someone said that they

could take that pain away,

would you let them?

I suppose.

That's all I do, Ben.

I take away the pain.

It doesn't hurt.

It will never hurt again.

No, it doesn't help at all,

it just makes things worse.

Please, try to understand.

We need your help.

Don't take me for a fool!

I know what's best for you!

Cu!

Don't let them control you.

Now see what I've become because

of those terrible feelings.

I'm sick of feelings

that come bubbling up.

Excuse me.

Where was I now?

Cu!

Oh. Stubborn boy,
