10
00:00:47,502 --> 00:00:52,802
Long ago, there lived in the steppe
an old man and his grandson,

11
00:00:53,603 --> 00:00:56,203
and they had a wolfhound
who was their faithful friend.

12
00:00:57,004 --> 00:00:58,504
They tended to their cattle

13
00:00:59,155 --> 00:01:05,205
and knew not that the black sands were
home to a cunning witch named Mystan.

14
00:01:10,956 --> 00:01:16,206
Her dream was to take over the whole
world and turn it into a desert.

15
00:01:18,157 --> 00:01:22,407
Her designs could be thwarted
only by true friendship,

16
00:01:22,508 --> 00:01:26,908
a brave heart and the Golden Bita.

17
00:01:28,459 --> 00:01:30,409
The steppe lived in peace.

18
00:01:30,810 --> 00:01:32,310
But one day...

19
00:02:31,961 --> 00:02:33,950
Like an insatiable boa constrictor

20
00:02:34,051 --> 00:02:36,801
the desert swallowed up the flowering land.

21
00:02:36,902 --> 00:02:38,602
Mystan rejoiced,

22
00:02:39,103 --> 00:02:41,103
but it was not to be -

23
00:02:41,804 --> 00:02:44,204
From generation to generation,

24
00:02:44,455 --> 00:02:47,305
the people passed along
the magic Bita

25
00:02:47,656 --> 00:02:50,406
and cherished it like
the apple of their eye.

26
00:02:50,807 --> 00:02:53,207
Old Chaban cherished it too,

27
00:02:53,458 --> 00:02:56,108
and now its hour had come.

28
00:04:18,809 --> 00:04:22,209
Mystan decided to obtain the Bita
through trickery.

29
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:28,310
With sweet sounds she
bewitched the boy.

30
00:04:29,161 --> 00:04:32,911
The wolfhound felt that something was
off about the wondrous melody,

31
00:04:34,912 --> 00:04:37,612
but the boy did not believe his friend.

32
00:04:45,363 --> 00:04:47,713
So the old man lost the Bita,

33
00:04:48,264 --> 00:04:50,014
and with it,

34
00:04:50,215 --> 00:04:53,315
dropped also the staff of life
from his hands.

35
00:05:29,166 --> 00:05:32,816
The boy remembered the words of his
grandfather that in evil hands,

36
00:05:33,067 --> 00:05:36,117
the Golden Bita would turn into
a black stone.

37
00:05:36,218 --> 00:05:38,368
If the Bita were not saved
that same day,

38
00:05:38,469 --> 00:05:42,119
Mystan would take away all its
remaining power.

39
00:05:42,770 --> 00:05:45,420
Now the boy had to find a foal

40
00:05:45,521 --> 00:05:48,721
who would not look away,
nor lower his head.

41
00:06:19,722 --> 00:06:23,522
And the foal turned into a tulpar,
a swift stallion.

42
00:06:33,223 --> 00:06:37,523
Faster than the wind he carried
the boy into Mystan's domain

43
00:06:37,624 --> 00:06:40,124
and helped save the Bita.

44
00:07:22,825 --> 00:07:26,475
The magic tulpar raised barriers
one after another,

45
00:07:26,826 --> 00:07:28,426
but Mystan did not fall behind.

46
00:07:28,527 --> 00:07:30,527
The stallion's strength was fading.

47
00:07:45,078 --> 00:07:48,528
Only the Golden Bita
could save the boy,

48
00:07:48,879 --> 00:07:53,229
but it had only enough magical power
remaining for one more wish.

49
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:55,730
If the boy used it to save himself,

50
00:07:56,181 --> 00:07:59,431
the steppe would have forever
remained beneath the sands.

51
00:08:00,582 --> 00:08:04,032
Then the boy remembered
his faithful wolfhound

52
00:08:04,133 --> 00:08:06,183
and sent the tulpar after him.

53
00:09:22,534 --> 00:09:25,384
Thus was Mystan defeated.

54
00:09:25,835 --> 00:09:27,735
And the Golden Bita

55
00:09:28,086 --> 00:09:31,936
gave up its magical power to the earth

56
00:09:32,237 --> 00:09:33,937
and the steppe became
even more beautiful,

57
00:09:35,488 --> 00:09:40,008
and people lived in it
better than before.

58
00:09:42,709 --> 00:09:47,109
THE END
