GIANT :
Look what we have here.
A little pest climbing up the walls.
KAY :
Damn it, how many of you are there?!
GIANT :
What about it, Gramps?
Not a fan of surprises?
Struggling won't get you anywhere.
When we find vermin,
we crush it.
KAY :
Let him go.
Right now.
GIANT :
[amused ]
Or else what?
You can’t reach me.
[ percy kicks and fights!! ]
GIANT :
The little bugger’s fighting back.
PERCIVAL :
LET ME GO!
GIANT :
Oh?
If you insist.
KAY :
NO!
[ < text > is in Welsh. ]
LAMORAK :
< Father!
Father!
Father, why do I have to train against Aglovale?
He’s way taller and stronger than me!
I don’t stand a chance! >
PELLINORE :
< Nonsense.
That never stopped me from beating Arthur into the dirt more than once,
and he's much taller than I am. >
AGLOVALE :
< Arthur isn’t the only one taller than you are, Father. >
PELLINORE :
< Ah!
Mocked by my own flesh and blood!
Don’t laugh too hard, though. I can still knock you down without breaking a sweat,
you little brat. >
LAMORAK :
< How do you do it, then?
If I can’t beat Aglovale…
…how can I help you fight the giants? >
PELLINORE :
< The giants?
Aww, but the giants are all but gone, honey.
And they’re a special case.
You can use endurance and strength against a knight, or wear them down. A solid strategy will help you too, of course.
But a giant will toy with you like a cat with a mouse,
and that will give you unexpected advantages. >
LAMORAK :
< How so? >
PELLINORE :
< Since they’re too busy laughing at your very existence, they don’t really pay attention to anything you’re doing.
That is our greatest asset,
and their fatal mistake.
They always underestimate us. >
LAMORAK :
( Being a knight goes way beyond swinging a sword around.
It’s about showing nobility of spirit,
fighting for justice,
protecting others,
avenging those who died unjust deaths.
It doesn’t matter…
…if I’m not the best,
or the most renowned. )
GIANTESS :
Missed me, did you?
Wait, I’ll show you!
LAMORAK :
UGH!
( I am a good knight. )
GIANTESS :
You’re a tough one, I’ll give you that!
LAMORAK :
( I’ll see justice done.)
[ the giantess turns to keep her eyes on lamorak, and her feet sink into the quicksand. ]
GIANTESS :
…What…?
LAMORAK :
Say
my
name.
GIANTESS :
I don’t give a shit about your name, you little pest!
LAMORAK :
I am…
Lamorak of Wales.
…Aglovale…
…is really…
…going to hate this…
