all.
212
00:01:55,769 --> 00:01:56,010:
She
213
00:01:56,010 --> 00:01:56,340:
gave
214
00:01:56,340 --> 00:01:56,849:

218
00:01:57,989 --> 00:01:59,400:
Urania,

the
222
00:02:00,540 --> 00:02:03,090:
occasion.
And
223
00:02:03,090 --> 00:02:03,239:
there
224
00:02:03,239 --> 00:02:03,450:
was
225
00:02:03,450 --> 00:02:03,810:
much
226
00:02:03,810 --> 00:02:03,959:
to
227
00:02:03,959 --> 00:02:05,159:
celebrate,
228
00:02:05,159 --> 00:02:05,340:
for
229
00:02:05,340 --> 00:02:05,459:
the

dragon,
233
00:02:06,930 --> 00:02:07,049:
the

more
235
00:02:07,439 --> 00:02:08,129:
treasure
236
00:02:08,129 --> 00:02:08,370:
she
237
00:02:08,370 --> 00:02:08,550:
can
238
00:02:08,550 --> 00:02:09,960:
hoard.
239
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:10,169:
We
240
00:02:10,169 --> 00:02:10,349:
have
241
00:02:10,349 --> 00:02:10,590:
only
242
00:02:10,590 --> 00:02:10,800:
so
243
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:11,009:
many
244
00:02:11,009 --> 00:02:11,639:
claws,
245
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:11,819:
so
246
00:02:11,819 --> 00:02:11,939:
we
247
00:02:11,939 --> 00:02:12,120:
can
248
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:12,419:
only
249
00:02:12,419 --> 00:02:12,750:
carry
250
00:02:12,750 --> 00:02:12,990:
so
251
00:02:12,990 --> 00:02:14,099:
much.
252
00:02:14,099 --> 00:02:14,250:
For
253
00:02:14,250 --> 00:02:14,669:
most,
254
00:02:14,669 --> 00:02:14,819:
it’s
255
00:02:14,819 --> 00:02:15,120:
one
256
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:15,870:
treasure
257
00:02:15,870 --> 00:02:16,020:
per
258
00:02:16,020 --> 00:02:16,949:
body length,
259
00:02:16,949 --> 00:02:17,129:
but
260
00:02:17,129 --> 00:02:17,250:
you
261
00:02:17,250 --> 00:02:17,669:
can
262
00:02:17,669 --> 00:02:17,969:
carry
263
00:02:17,969 --> 00:02:18,509:
more,
264
00:02:18,509 --> 00:02:18,689:
if
265
00:02:18,689 --> 00:02:18,900:
you’re
266
00:02:18,900 --> 00:02:19,469:
clever
267
00:02:19,469 --> 00:02:19,590:
and
268
00:02:19,590 --> 00:02:20,009:
stack
269
00:02:20,009 --> 00:02:20,189:
it
270
00:02:20,189 --> 00:02:20,789:
just
271
00:02:20,789 --> 00:02:22,080:
right.
272
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:22,379:
That’s
273
00:02:22,379 --> 00:02:22,530:
why
274
00:02:22,530 --> 00:02:22,710:
your
275
00:02:22,710 --> 00:02:23,250:
Mama
276
00:02:23,250 --> 00:02:23,669:
has
277
00:02:23,669 --> 00:02:23,969:
eight
278
00:02:23,969 --> 00:02:24,569:
treasure
279
00:02:24,569 --> 00:02:24,715:
for
280
00:02:24,715 --> 00:02:24,990:
her
281
00:02:24,990 --> 00:02:25,259:
eight
282
00:02:25,259 --> 00:02:26,340:
segments,
283
00:02:26,340 --> 00:02:26,639:
but
284
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:27,629:
Grandmama
285
00:02:27,629 --> 00:02:27,930:
has
286
00:02:27,930 --> 00:02:28,229:
eight
287
00:02:28,229 --> 00:02:28,500:
as
288
00:02:28,500 --> 00:02:29,460:
well,
289
00:02:29,460 --> 00:02:30,060:
despite
290
00:02:30,060 --> 00:02:30,449:
only
291
00:02:30,449 --> 00:02:30,900:
having
292
00:02:30,900 --> 00:02:31,379:
six
293
00:02:31,379 --> 00:02:34,169:
segments.
Where
294
00:02:34,169 --> 00:02:34,560:
was
295
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:35,879:
I?
296
00:02:35,879 --> 00:02:37,139:
Yes,
297
00:02:37,139 --> 00:02:37,919:
Urania
298
00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:38,219:
was
299
00:02:38,219 --> 00:02:38,610:
very
300
00:02:38,610 --> 00:02:39,030:
happy
301
00:02:39,030 --> 00:02:39,180:
to
302
00:02:39,180 --> 00:02:39,300:
be
303
00:02:39,300 --> 00:02:39,900:
bigger,
304
00:02:39,900 --> 00:02:40,139:
so
305
00:02:40,139 --> 00:02:40,349:
she
306
00:02:40,349 --> 00:02:40,500:
could
307
00:02:40,500 --> 00:02:40,800:
have
308
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:41,069:
more
309
00:02:41,069 --> 00:02:41,969:
treasure.
310
00:02:41,969 --> 00:02:42,240:
And
311
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:42,509:
being
312
00:02:42,509 --> 00:02:42,629:
the
313
00:02:42,629 --> 00:02:43,139:
biggest

meant
316
00:02:43,889 --> 00:02:44,129:
she
317
00:02:44,129 --> 00:02:44,310:
could
318
00:02:44,310 --> 00:02:44,580:
have
319
00:02:44,580 --> 00:02:44,939:
more
320
00:02:44,939 --> 00:02:45,240:
than
321
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:45,750:
anyone
322
00:02:45,750 --> 00:02:46,590:
else.
323
00:02:46,590 --> 00:02:46,830:
But,
324
00:02:46,830 --> 00:02:47,009:
when
325
00:02:47,009 --> 00:02:47,280:
she
326
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:47,759:
left
327
00:02:47,759 --> 00:02:47,879:
the
328
00:02:47,879 --> 00:02:48,659:
feast,
329
00:02:48,659 --> 00:02:48,960:
she
330
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:49,439:
nearly
331
00:02:49,439 --> 00:02:50,189:
stumbled
332
00:02:50,189 --> 00:02:50,430:
over
333
00:02:50,430 --> 00:02:50,550:
an
334
00:02:50,550 --> 00:02:50,789:
old
335
00:02:50,789 --> 00:02:53,219:
wyrm.
“You
336
00:02:53,219 --> 00:02:53,849:
best
337
00:02:53,849 --> 00:02:54,270:
be
338
00:02:54,270 --> 00:02:56,250:
careful,”
339
00:02:56,250 --> 00:02:56,406:
the
340
00:02:56,406 --> 00:02:57,090:
old-timer
341
00:02:57,090 --> 00:02:59,460:
murmured.
“Why?”
342
00:02:59,460 --> 00:03:00,060:
Urania
343
00:03:00,060 --> 00:03:00,629:
scoffed,
344
00:03:00,629 --> 00:03:00,780:
for
345
00:03:00,780 --> 00:03:01,080:
what
346
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:01,229:
could
347
00:03:01,229 --> 00:03:01,560:
she
348
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:02,039:
possibly
349
00:03:02,039 --> 00:03:02,250:
have
350
00:03:02,250 --> 00:03:02,340:
to

fear?
352
00:03:03,300 --> 00:03:03,599:
No

00:03:03,599 --> 00:03:03,780:

00:03:03,990 --> 00:03:04,169:
big
356
00:03:04,169 --> 00:03:04,379:
enough
357
00:03:04,379 --> 00:03:04,530:

00:03:04,979 --> 00:03:05,250:
eat
360
00:03:05,250 --> 00:03:05,580:
her
361
00:03:05,580 --> 00:03:05,759:

364
00:03:06,419 --> 00:03:08,699:
her.
“Do

had
373
00:03:12,900 --> 00:03:14,250:
said. “It

is

the

Her

00:03:25,349 --> 00:03:26,009:
tired,
393
00:03:26,009 --> 00:03:26,610:

bitter,

nothing to me.”
“36,”

00:03:59,520 --> 00:03:59,639:
was
442
00:03:59,639 --> 00:04:00,000:
always

it

oh-so

00:04:09,180 --> 00:04:09,960:

“Pah,
470
00:04:13,710 --> 00:04:13,979:
what
471
00:04:13,979 --> 00:04:14,159:

00:04:15,689 --> 00:04:16,319:
Urania
475
00:04:16,319 --> 00:04:16,620:

past.”
493
00:04:23,819 --> 00:04:24,480:
Urania
494
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:24,839:
couldn’t

another

00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:27,930:
as

00:04:27,930 --> 00:04:28,050:
there
505
00:04:28,050 --> 00:04:28,319:
was

no

else like

her

00:04:29,699 --> 00:04:30,600:

00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:30,959:
parts
512
00:04:30,959 --> 00:04:31,769:
long, who
513
00:04:31,769 --> 00:04:32,160:
had

magic

perfect

So,

00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:42,930:
one

only

two
533
00:04:45,870 --> 00:04:46,439:
segments
534
00:04:46,439 --> 00:04:47,100:
large
535
00:04:47,100 --> 00:04:47,639:
shot
536
00:04:47,639 --> 00:04:47,819:
into
537
00:04:47,819 --> 00:04:47,970:
her
538
00:04:47,970 --> 00:04:48,269:
lair
539
00:04:48,269 --> 00:04:48,449:
and
540
00:04:48,449 --> 00:04:48,810:
bounced
541
00:04:48,810 --> 00:04:48,990:
off
542
00:04:48,990 --> 00:04:49,379:
her,
543
00:04:49,379 --> 00:04:50,009:
Urania
544
00:04:50,009 --> 00:04:51,389:
snarled.
545
00:04:51,389 --> 00:04:51,660:
One
546
00:04:51,660 --> 00:04:51,750:
of
547
00:04:51,750 --> 00:04:51,810:
the
548
00:04:51,810 --> 00:04:52,319:
hatchling’s
549
00:04:52,319 --> 00:04:52,740:
treasure
550
00:04:52,740 --> 00:04:53,100:
rattled
551
00:04:53,100 --> 00:04:53,399:
loose
552
00:04:53,399 --> 00:04:53,490:
and
553
00:04:53,490 --> 00:04:53,790:
began
554
00:04:53,790 --> 00:04:53,910:
to
555
00:04:53,910 --> 00:04:54,149:
roll
556
00:04:54,149 --> 00:04:55,560:
away.
“I’ll
557
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:55,709:
be
558
00:04:55,709 --> 00:04:56,310:
taking
559
00:04:56,310 --> 00:04:57,629:
that,”
560
00:04:57,629 --> 00:04:58,290:
Urania
561
00:04:58,290 --> 00:04:58,889:
said,
562
00:04:58,889 --> 00:04:59,100:
and
563
00:04:59,100 --> 00:04:59,430:
plucked
564
00:04:59,430 --> 00:04:59,519:
it
565
00:04:59,519 --> 00:04:59,670:
up
566
00:04:59,670 --> 00:04:59,850:
with
567
00:04:59,850 --> 00:05:00,060:
one
568
00:05:00,060 --> 00:05:00,120:
of
569
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:00,240:
her
570
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:00,600:
many
571
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:02,100:
claws.
The
572
00:05:02,100 --> 00:05:03,089:
hatchling
573
00:05:03,089 --> 00:05:03,959:
was
574
00:05:03,959 --> 00:05:05,819:
horrified. “But
575
00:05:05,819 --> 00:05:06,420:
that’s
576
00:05:06,420 --> 00:05:07,290:
mine!”
577
00:05:07,290 --> 00:05:07,529:
little
578
00:05:07,529 --> 00:05:08,100:
Helios
579
00:05:08,100 --> 00:05:09,089:
cried. “You
580
00:05:09,089 --> 00:05:09,300:
have
581
00:05:09,300 --> 00:05:10,410:
eleventy-jillion

00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:10,949:
and
584
00:05:10,949 --> 00:05:11,100:
I
585
00:05:11,100 --> 00:05:11,310:
only
586
00:05:11,310 --> 00:05:11,639:
have
587
00:05:11,639 --> 00:05:14,819:
two!”
Oh?
588
00:05:14,819 --> 00:05:15,089:
That’s
589
00:05:15,089 --> 00:05:15,360:
because
590
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:15,660:
all
591
00:05:15,660 --> 00:05:16,199:
hatchlings,
592
00:05:16,199 --> 00:05:16,439:
once
593
00:05:16,439 --> 00:05:16,589:
they
594
00:05:16,589 --> 00:05:16,860:
gain
595
00:05:16,860 --> 00:05:17,009:
their
596
00:05:17,009 --> 00:05:17,430:
second
597
00:05:17,430 --> 00:05:17,910:
segment,
598
00:05:17,910 --> 00:05:18,360:
graduate
599
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:18,509:
from
600
00:05:18,509 --> 00:05:18,600:
the

602
00:05:19,620 --> 00:05:20,699:
to “Helios,”
603
00:05:20,699 --> 00:05:20,850:
and
604
00:05:20,850 --> 00:05:21,029:
that
605
00:05:21,029 --> 00:05:21,389:
means
606
00:05:21,389 --> 00:05:21,810:
you,
607
00:05:21,810 --> 00:05:23,040:
too.
608
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:23,129:
I
609
00:05:23,129 --> 00:05:23,339:
don’t
610
00:05:23,339 --> 00:05:23,459:
know
611
00:05:23,459 --> 00:05:23,639:
when
612
00:05:23,639 --> 00:05:23,730:
the
613
00:05:23,730 --> 00:05:24,180:
tradition
614
00:05:24,180 --> 00:05:24,810:
started,
615
00:05:24,810 --> 00:05:25,050:
it’s
616
00:05:25,050 --> 00:05:25,410:
just
617
00:05:25,410 --> 00:05:25,649:
how
618
00:05:25,649 --> 00:05:25,920:
things
619
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:26,100:
have

always

00:05:26,759 --> 00:05:27,569:
been.
622
00:05:27,569 --> 00:05:27,810:
Now,
623

00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:29,250:
we’re
627
00:05:29,250 --> 00:05:29,730:
almost
628
00:05:29,730 --> 00:05:33,120:
done.
Urania
629
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:33,389:
said
630
00:05:33,389 --> 00:05:33,480:

it’s

00:05:47,129 --> 00:05:47,850:
very
663
00:05:47,850 --> 00:05:48,899:
rude.
664
00:05:48,899 --> 00:05:49,649:
Now,

“Give

Urania
713
00:06:13,804 --> 00:06:13,980:
had
714
00:06:13,980 --> 00:06:14,339:
once

00:06:14,339 --> 00:06:14,550:
been

hatchling,
718
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:15,600:
so

she
720
00:06:15,810 --> 00:06:16,079:
should

kindness,

with

she

00:06:30,389 --> 00:06:30,870:

00:06:32,250 --> 00:06:32,459:
The

triumph
754
00:06:33,870 --> 00:06:34,350:
was

00:06:34,350 --> 00:06:35,490:
radiant,

00:06:35,670 --> 00:06:35,819:
then

00:06:35,819 --> 00:06:35,939:
it
759
00:06:35,939 --> 00:06:36,720:
grew,

00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:37,529:
hotter
761
00:06:37,529 --> 00:06:38,279:
and

hotter,
763
00:06:38,850 --> 00:06:39,329:

it
765
00:06:39,449 --> 00:06:39,779:
was
766
00:06:39,779 --> 00:06:40,019:
too
767
00:06:40,019 --> 00:06:40,829:
much.
768
00:06:40,829 --> 00:06:41,160:
Then
769
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:41,339:
there
770
00:06:41,339 --> 00:06:41,579:

Urania

00:06:45,629 --> 00:06:46,199:
released

00:06:48,569 --> 00:06:49,110:
perhaps
786
00:06:49,110 --> 00:06:49,230:

her
792
00:06:50,579 --> 00:06:52,529:
life.
She
793
00:06:52,529 --> 00:06:53,129:

00:06:54,060 --> 00:06:54,240:
and
798
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:54,389:
then,
799
00:06:54,389 --> 00:06:54,449:
a

801
00:06:54,779 --> 00:06:55,110:
later,

00:06:55,110 --> 00:06:55,319:
she
803
00:06:55,319 --> 00:06:55,589:
heard

something

00:06:56,100 --> 00:06:56,430:
else
806
00:06:56,430 --> 00:06:57,779:
fall.
807
00:06:57,779 --> 00:06:58,139:
Without

holding
812
00:06:59,579 --> 00:06:59,699:
it
813
00:06:59,699 --> 00:07:00,389:
together,

the

treasure
818
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:02,430:
collapsed
819
00:07:02,430 --> 00:07:02,579:
and
820
00:07:02,579 --> 00:07:03,060:

“No!” Urania
824
00:07:07,110 --> 00:07:07,649:
cried,
825
00:07:07,649 --> 00:07:08,310:
scrambling
826
00:07:08,310 --> 00:07:08,430:

00:07:08,430 --> 00:07:08,519:
the

spheres.
829
00:07:09,389 --> 00:07:09,569:
Her
830
00:07:09,569 --> 00:07:09,990:
body
831
00:07:09,990 --> 00:07:10,230:
was
832
00:07:10,230 --> 00:07:10,379:
in
833
00:07:10,379 --> 00:07:11,129:
pain,
834
00:07:11,129 --> 00:07:11,579:
pins
835
00:07:11,579 --> 00:07:11,759:
and
836
00:07:11,759 --> 00:07:12,240:
needles
837
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:12,360:
and
838
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:12,660:
many
839
00:07:12,660 --> 00:07:12,750:
of
840
00:07:12,750 --> 00:07:12,870:
her
841
00:07:12,870 --> 00:07:13,350:
limbs
842
00:07:13,350 --> 00:07:13,740:
not
843
00:07:13,740 --> 00:07:14,819:
responding.
844
00:07:14,819 --> 00:07:15,060:
Yet
845
00:07:15,060 --> 00:07:15,329:
she
846
00:07:15,329 --> 00:07:15,629:
moved
847
00:07:15,629 --> 00:07:16,139:
faster
848
00:07:16,139 --> 00:07:16,290:
than
849
00:07:16,290 --> 00:07:16,470:
she
850
00:07:16,470 --> 00:07:16,680:
could
851
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:16,949:
ever
852
00:07:16,949 --> 00:07:17,579:
remember,
853
00:07:17,579 --> 00:07:18,240:
snatching
854
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:18,389:
up
855
00:07:18,389 --> 00:07:18,810:
orbs
856
00:07:18,810 --> 00:07:19,259:
left
857
00:07:19,259 --> 00:07:19,410:
and
858
00:07:19,410 --> 00:07:22,079:
right.
But
859
00:07:22,079 --> 00:07:22,470:
now
860
00:07:22,470 --> 00:07:22,620:
there
861
00:07:22,620 --> 00:07:22,800:
was
862
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:22,860:
a
863
00:07:22,860 --> 00:07:23,430:
second
864
00:07:23,430 --> 00:07:23,850:
dragon
865
00:07:23,850 --> 00:07:24,089:
doing
866
00:07:24,089 --> 00:07:24,360:
just
867
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:24,449:
the
868
00:07:24,449 --> 00:07:25,560:
same!
869
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:25,709:
The
870
00:07:25,709 --> 00:07:26,189:
stranger
871
00:07:26,189 --> 00:07:26,370:
was
872
00:07:26,370 --> 00:07:26,819:
larger
873
00:07:26,819 --> 00:07:26,970:
than
874
00:07:26,970 --> 00:07:27,689:
Helios,
875
00:07:27,689 --> 00:07:27,930:
where
876
00:07:27,930 --> 00:07:28,110:
had
877
00:07:28,110 --> 00:07:28,379:
she
878
00:07:28,379 --> 00:07:28,620:
come
879
00:07:28,620 --> 00:07:29,490:
from?
880
00:07:29,490 --> 00:07:29,970:
Urania
881
00:07:29,970 --> 00:07:30,149:
didn’t
882
00:07:30,149 --> 00:07:30,300:
take
883
00:07:30,300 --> 00:07:30,389:
the
884
00:07:30,389 --> 00:07:30,779:
time
885
00:07:30,779 --> 00:07:30,839:
to
886
00:07:30,839 --> 00:07:31,259:
threaten
887
00:07:31,259 --> 00:07:31,680:
her,
888
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:31,980:
since
889
00:07:31,980 --> 00:07:32,250:
getting
890
00:07:32,250 --> 00:07:32,490:
her
891
00:07:32,490 --> 00:07:32,879:
treasure
892
00:07:32,879 --> 00:07:33,149:
back
893
00:07:33,149 --> 00:07:33,329:
was
894
00:07:33,329 --> 00:07:33,629:
more
895
00:07:33,629 --> 00:07:35,310:
important.
When
896
00:07:35,310 --> 00:07:35,430:
there
897
00:07:35,430 --> 00:07:35,550:
were
898
00:07:35,550 --> 00:07:35,879:
no

900
00:07:36,329 --> 00:07:36,990:
left,
901
00:07:36,990 --> 00:07:37,860:
Urania
902
00:07:37,860 --> 00:07:38,100:
had
903
00:07:38,100 --> 00:07:38,430:
only 56,
904
00:07:38,430 --> 00:07:38,819:
while
905
00:07:38,819 --> 00:07:42,720:
the stranger had 85.
906
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:42,839:
The
907
00:07:42,839 --> 00:07:43,230:
last
908
00:07:43,230 --> 00:07:43,620:
three
909
00:07:43,620 --> 00:07:43,769:
had
910
00:07:43,769 --> 00:07:44,189:
rocketed
911
00:07:44,189 --> 00:07:44,730:
away,
912
00:07:44,730 --> 00:07:45,149:
likely
913
00:07:45,149 --> 00:07:45,629:
snatched
914
00:07:45,629 --> 00:07:45,779:
up
915
00:07:45,779 --> 00:07:45,930:
by
916
00:07:45,930 --> 00:07:46,139:
some
917
00:07:46,139 --> 00:07:46,470:
lucky
918
00:07:46,470 --> 00:07:46,889:
dragon
919
00:07:46,889 --> 00:07:47,279:
passing
920
00:07:47,279 --> 00:07:48,569:
by.
921
00:07:48,569 --> 00:07:49,259:
Urania’s
922
00:07:49,259 --> 00:07:49,649:
mass
923
00:07:49,649 --> 00:07:49,949:
felt
924
00:07:49,949 --> 00:07:50,670:
pitiful
925
00:07:50,670 --> 00:07:50,790:
in
926
00:07:50,790 --> 00:07:51,420:
comparison
927
00:07:51,420 --> 00:07:51,480:
to
928
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:51,629:
what
929
00:07:51,629 --> 00:07:51,810:
she
930
00:07:51,810 --> 00:07:56,699:
had before: 144 beautiful pieces of
931
00:07:56,699 --> 00:07:57,480:
treasure
932
00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:57,779:
within
933
00:07:57,779 --> 00:07:58,680:
her 92
934
00:07:58,680 --> 00:07:59,550:
segments,
935
00:07:59,550 --> 00:07:59,730:
for
936
00:07:59,730 --> 00:08:08,339:
a wonderful total of 236.
36! She remembered
937
00:08:08,339 --> 00:08:08,550:
that
938
00:08:08,550 --> 00:08:09,360:
number,
939
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:09,509:
the
940
00:08:09,509 --> 00:08:09,930:
old
941
00:08:09,930 --> 00:08:10,889:
timer,
942
00:08:10,889 --> 00:08:11,129:
and
943
00:08:11,129 --> 00:08:11,370:
then
944
00:08:11,370 --> 00:08:11,670:
she
945
00:08:11,670 --> 00:08:12,209:
looked
946
00:08:12,209 --> 00:08:12,360:
at
947
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:12,449:
the
948
00:08:12,449 --> 00:08:14,250:
stranger.
949
00:08:14,250 --> 00:08:14,610:
She
950
00:08:14,610 --> 00:08:15,480:
had 56
951
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:17,310:
segments…and a
952
00:08:17,310 --> 00:08:18,629:
familiar
953
00:08:18,629 --> 00:08:20,519:
tail.
954
00:08:20,519 --> 00:08:20,699:
It
955
00:08:20,699 --> 00:08:20,970:
had
956
00:08:20,970 --> 00:08:21,240:
been
957
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:22,019:
Urania’s
958
00:08:22,019 --> 00:08:22,410:
beautiful
959
00:08:22,410 --> 00:08:23,160:
tail,
960
00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:23,339:
had
961
00:08:23,339 --> 00:08:23,399:
the
962
00:08:23,399 --> 00:08:23,819:
stranger
963
00:08:23,819 --> 00:08:24,269:
stolen
964
00:08:24,269 --> 00:08:24,480:
it,
965
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:25,529:
too?
And
966
00:08:25,529 --> 00:08:25,920:
then,
967
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:26,490:
Urania
968
00:08:26,490 --> 00:08:27,899:
realized:
969
00:08:27,899 --> 00:08:28,170:
her
970
00:08:28,170 --> 00:08:28,620:
greed
971
00:08:28,620 --> 00:08:28,829:
had
972
00:08:28,829 --> 00:08:29,009:
been
973
00:08:29,009 --> 00:08:29,399:
so
974
00:08:29,399 --> 00:08:30,240:
great,
975
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:30,360:
the
976
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:30,899:
treasure
977
00:08:30,899 --> 00:08:31,110:
had
978
00:08:31,110 --> 00:08:31,500:
broken
979
00:08:31,500 --> 00:08:31,740:
her
980
00:08:31,740 --> 00:08:32,909:
in two,
981
00:08:32,909 --> 00:08:33,090:
and
982
00:08:33,090 --> 00:08:33,360:
now
983
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:33,870:
she
984
00:08:33,870 --> 00:08:34,019:
was
985
00:08:34,019 --> 00:08:34,139:
the

989
00:08:35,399 --> 00:08:36,720:
only 36
990
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:38,460:
segments.
991
00:08:38,460 --> 00:08:39,690:
She
992
00:08:39,690 --> 00:08:39,929:
was
993
00:08:39,929 --> 00:08:40,200:
now
994
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:40,559:
at
995
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:40,860:
great
996
00:08:40,860 --> 00:08:41,250:
risk
997
00:08:41,250 --> 00:08:41,370:
that

00:08:41,370 --> 00:08:41,759:
someone

else
1000
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:42,210:
might
1001
00:08:42,210 --> 00:08:42,690:
steal
1002
00:08:42,690 --> 00:08:42,960:
her
1003
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:44,009:
treasure.
1004
00:08:44,009 --> 00:08:44,309:
Even
1005
00:08:44,309 --> 00:08:44,490:
her
1006
00:08:44,490 --> 00:08:45,210:
daughter-self
1007
00:08:45,210 --> 00:08:46,049:
could,
1008
00:08:46,049 --> 00:08:46,379:
but

00:08:46,379 --> 00:08:46,559:
for
1010
00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:46,799:
what
1011
00:08:46,799 --> 00:08:47,700:
end?
1012
00:08:47,700 --> 00:08:48,059:
Fitting
1013
00:08:48,059 --> 00:08:48,179:
all

00:08:48,179 --> 00:08:48,360:
that
1015
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:48,779:

The

1098
00:09:29,340 --> 00:09:29,970:

00:09:38,399 --> 00:09:38,789:
lose
1119
00:09:38,789 --> 00:09:39,539:
sight
1120
00:09:39,539 --> 00:09:39,750:

00:09:40,139 --> 00:09:41,009:
truly
1123
00:09:41,009 --> 00:09:45,210:

Okay,

Hydragos,
1125
00:09:46,169 --> 00:09:46,350:

00:09:53,129 --> 00:09:55,019:
grounded?
1149
00:09:55,019 --> 00:09:55,500:
That’s

00:09:55,500 --> 00:09:58,830:
