Most scenes together: Princess Merida & Fergus (9), Princess Merida & Elinor (6), Princess Merida & The Witch (4)
Legends are lessons. They ring with truths. Our kingdom is young; our stories are not yet legends, but in them, our bond was struck. Our clans were once enemies. But when we were threatened from the north, you joined together to defend our lands. You fought for each other. You risked everything for each other.
I'll never be like you.
Oh, dear. [notices Merida's bow starts to burn out; she quickly pulls it out and she realizes it's been burned out] Oh, no. What have I done? [weeps in realization]
Then our alliance is over! This means war!
There are those who say fate is something beyond our command. That destiny is not our own, but I know better. Our fate lives within us, you only have to be brave enough to see it.
Where are you? Come out! Come out! Come on out! I'm coming to get you! [Young Merida laughs as she hides under the table] Where are you, you little rascal? I'm coming to get you! [looks under the table but Merida quickly moves to hide somewhere else] Hmm. Where is my little birthday girl, hm? I'm going to gobble her up when I find her! [Merida comes up behind Elinor and goes to run away but Elinor catches her] I'm going to eat you! [as she and Merida play, Fergus places his bow on the table] Ach! Fergus, no weapons on the table!
Can I shoot an arrow? [picks up the large bow from the table] Can I, can I, can I, can I? Please, can I? [falls and laughs as the bow is too big for her]
Not with that. Why not use your very own? [presents her with a small bow] Happy birthday, my wee darlin'!
