[Ahgo] I have had a dream, She-Ra,
a most disturbing dream.
In this dream, I saw shadowy figures
moving toward a mound of stone.
With a great machine,
the face of the stone mound was ripped away,
revealing a doorway.
And on that doorway was a symbol
I had good cause to recognize...
the symbol of the Spider of Crystal.

The Spider of Crystal?
It was a monster from another world
which came to Etheria long ago.
It lived only to destroy,
and its power was great.
We trolls managed to seal it beneath a great mountain.
We put a stone mound on top of this mountain
to maintain the magic which held the beast.
And in your dream,
someone is breaking into this mound?
Yes, but it is not just a dream, She-Ra.
It is a warning.
I have had such warnings before, and I know.
You must stop it from happening.

In the Shadow Kingdom of Skull Path.
Hmm, that's Duke Drear's kingdom.
