Synopsis

It's an otherwise unassuming day on Puerto Angel when suddenly, a mysterious Patroller arrives at the port, bypassing their surveillance. Mahad disables the Patroller with the Hyperion, and out stumbles an injured young Guardian named Alice. She is taken into custody and, after speaking with Mahad, it's revealed that she believes that Sphere are the "good guys," and the pirates are the vilains. After briefly escaping her makeshift cell, she's recaptured by Mahad, who lies to Cortes and the others about her whereabouts, as he has taken pity on her. Inadvertently, Lena finds Alice and demands an explanation. She and Alice share a Seijin telepathy moment, and after learning Lena and Mahad's story, Alice realizes how terribly wrong she has been about the Sphere. Taking sympathy on Alice, Lena agrees to help her escape when they're intercepted by the Monolith. Alice is taken aboard, promising to let her new friends go once she has double-crossed Diwan. Mahad and Lena are captured, but Alice turns the tables on her former Sphere mentor.

Production notes

In the year 2251, the earth shattered into millions of blocks that now float in orbit around the earth's core, but these blocks remained suitable for living, and life continued on them. Soon, children with telekinetic powers-the Seijin-appeared. The earth's dictatorship, known as The Sphere, raised these children to enforce their power. A resistance movement of Pirates formed, but disbanded after their leader Marcus Farrell disappears. Skyland's young heroes Mahad and Lena find themselves unlikely members of the gang of Pirate rebels after their mother is kidnapped and imprisoned. They begin a journey to free their mother, fight the control of the Sphere and unravel the mystery of their father, Marcus Farrell.

Motion capture animation (combined 2D and 3D).
