Speaker 2: Of the Death Dwarfs, into his own fiery pits.
Speaker 1: Then he and the Witch Queen raced for the Iron
Door leading to freedom. In the meantime, Dale and the
invisible Zakhov managed to enter the palace. Then Zakhov made
his way to where General.
Speaker 3: Tall was putting Khan the Hawkman into a cell.
Speaker 1: From Khan, the scientists learned what had happened.
Speaker 3: To Flash and the Zura. Although Khan had only.
Speaker 2: A theory about Flashes being still alive and.
Speaker 1: Was unable to tell Khn exactly where the Iron Door
was located, the Great Scientists decided to search for it
before his.
Speaker 3: Invisibility wore off.
Speaker 1: At that moment, Flash and Queen Azura reached the Iron
Door in their mad dash for freedom. They found it
barred from the outside and heard the cries.
Speaker 3: Of the Death Dwarf as they start to close.
Speaker 4: In on them.

howling mob of half sized men closing in on them.
As they stand at the barred iron door.
Speaker 2: They come with warves. Desorda stand behind me. I hold
them off as long as I can.
Speaker 5: You're a brave man's place, but I'm afraid there are
too many piers.
Speaker 2: We've quite a few less pigments walking around by the
time they get me.
Speaker 4: A z Ordah.
Speaker 5: They seemed to be in a conference.
Speaker 4: Why don't say a test?
Speaker 2: I don't know. I would said, hurry up and come
out of the huddle. The suspense is worse than the
actual pythons.
Speaker 4: I'm going to pound on the door again.
Speaker 5: Somebody must be out there help, he said, Surah, you're queen.
Your voice is all right, know you.
Speaker 4: I guess you are right.
Speaker 2: I know I'm right this time. But I was a
fool not to listen to you Ora in the first place.
It's all my fault that we're in this tough spot.
I know apologizing won't save our lives, but I want
you to know I'm sorry. I've listened to your life.
I only wanted to capture you as a hostage in
order to conquer Tall.
Speaker 3: And your army.
Speaker 5: I believe you cash. While apologies are in order, i'd
like to ask your forgiveness.
Speaker 4: By the way I've seated you, it was only because
I loved you.
Speaker 3: I remind you of the saying old pair in love
and war.
Speaker 2: It's only fair to remind you of Orda that I
love dale Arden, and I always will.
Speaker 4: I know that, but for once and for all I
beat her out.
Speaker 3: What do you mean, come the dwarf to attack it.
Speaker 6: You may love dale Arden, but I shall be the
one who die.
Speaker 1: In the Meanwhile, back at the palace, General Tall brings
a squad of guards to the cell of Khan Hawkman.
Speaker 4: Ah Um. Well, prisoner Khan, But I need to say
for yourself, Justice, this cell isn't as comfortable as it
might be. Tall. You are pleased to guess one would
think you were a guest of honor instead of a prisoner.
Speaker 7: Not from these quarters. They wouldn't.
Speaker 4: Perhaps you can leave that cell, never to return to it.
Speaker 7: By what means you still believe.
Speaker 4: Plast Gordon and Azura are alive?
Speaker 7: I told you I shall never believe west Gordon deare
until I see his body.
Speaker 4: M yes, well, it may not be long before we
shall have that pleasure? Is that so? Yes?
Speaker 3: That is so?
Speaker 4: Prisoner Khan, you forget that I am now king of
the Blue magic Land?
Speaker 7: Are you saying you are doesn't make you a king? No?
Speaker 4: And listen, God, am I or am I not? King? Paul? King?
Tall King?
Speaker 3: Call the person.
Speaker 4: You hear, prisoner Khan. The gards acknowledge me to be
that king?
Speaker 7: They may say so to your faith, but I'll wait
till they don't behind your back. But what does this
handful of God do call you King?
Speaker 3: Taul?
Speaker 7: They aren't the whole army, They aren't the whole.
Speaker 4: Kingdom, the whole army. I'll show you, prisoner, I'll show
you who acknowledges me to be king? Here, God, down
the call for a view, and you open up the cell.
We'll bring that prison now with us. And now, prisoner,
I'm out of that cell, never to return.
Speaker 3: General from that.
Speaker 4: Deepens, and don't call me general. God bring the prison
of this way all that I'm mad?
Speaker 7: May I ask where you are taking me?
Speaker 4: You see, you soon find.
Speaker 7: Out wherever we're going, it will be better than that
cell back there. Honestly, Tall, if you're going to run
this country, you might begin by improving your cell blocks. Well,
what's the matter, can't you hold a polite conversation?
Speaker 4: Ah?
Speaker 7: Why we're on the parade ground?
Speaker 4: God give this signal to not the review?
Speaker 2: What's all with porthole?
Speaker 7: Do you want the army to get a good look
at me? So though, recognize me in case I fight.
Speaker 4: To escape, and you are a brave soldier.
Speaker 7: Praise from General Tall is praise.
Speaker 4: Indeed, even though you are a prisoner and face death
at any moment, you are no coward on this review
for you, for me Yet, I'm having the entire army
passed before us for two reasons. One is to show
you that the troops will salute me as him.
Speaker 7: I see that sow you are getting the royal salute.
What is the other reason?
Speaker 4: And you guess?
Speaker 7: I never guess, Well, Tall, what is the other reason
for this review?
Speaker 4: To give you an opportunity to become acquainted with.
Speaker 3: Your troup, with my troop.
Speaker 7: I don't understand you.
Speaker 4: I am offering you the post of commander in chief
of my army if I will do what If you
will square allegiance to me as King Paul la First
you can call off your review tal you will not
square a legion to me most emphatically, no, very well,
God stop the review. Take the printoner back to me

carried her off through an iron door somewhere in the hills.

to follow in my search.
