The young Ewoks get back the next morning, and Paploo (Kneesaa’s
cousin) takes them to play a game away in the forest, while they are supposed
to be working. Wicket’s aunt catches them in the act, and sentences
them back to work.
In the meantime, at Morag’s cave, Morag’s spider helpers bring
in the Dulok shaman (wizard/medicine man). Together with him, Morag plans
revenge on her archrival Logray, and uses the magical firefly that she captured,
along with some magic, to bring. She turns the fly into a possessed firespreading
beast, and each other firefly that it touches, becomes evil… The flies
spread fire at the place where Wicket, Paploo, and the gang were working,
and when the elder Ewoks come, they blame it on the young Ewoks. They are
not allowed to go to the party that was to be held that evening, and had
to go to bed early.
That evening, all the young Ewoks have the same dream - that the Soul Trees,
all burnt up, were calling them for help. They all wake up at the same time,
and look out of their windows, finding the forest covered with fire.
They immediately notify the Ewok warriors. Coincidentally, one of the fireflies
drops into their hut. Wicket sprays some water over her, and the spell is
‘flushed’ out of her. They then find out about Morag’s plan.
They then go to the party, and tell Logray and Chirpa about the fire. Thanks
to a great team effort, the Ewoks manage to somewhat keep the fire under
control with the forest fire prevention technique (a magical foam that gets
rid of it) that Logray and Chirpa had developed earlier. With their Ewok
Gliders, Wicket and the gang drop water balloons (filled with the foam, rather)
all over the forest. Wicket even saves his aunt, with whom he had a quarrel
earlier that day.
The forest is damaged a bit, but luckily it starts raining, so the Soul Trees
can grow again. |
