The Purists' Second Wind - Young Justice (2011)

 Garth: 

Victory is at hand.

Nanaue Sha'ark:

And then we feast.

Lori Lemaris:

No, we do not. 

Lori Lemaris:

Lemaris, you really ... are ... a ... 

Kaldur'ahm:

Suddenly ... so ... weak.

Atlantean Purist #1: 

The Master has succeeded! The impure are cleansed. The tide of battle has turned.

Atlantean Purist #2:

Finish off the fish-heads, the race traitors and the Earther!

Superboy:

I'm not an Earther. I'm, uh ... Kryptonios

KPΥΠTΩNIOΣ

Kryptonian

Atlantean Purist #3:

Shall we begin with the so-called "king" of Nanauve? That will send a message to every city-state of Atlantis.

Nanaue Sha'ark:

Do ... your ... worst ... soon my people ... will feast ... on all of Poseidonis. 

Atlantean Purist #3:

What new sorcery is this?!

Kaldur'ahm:

That ... is not ... sorcery ... It is ... Topo!

Atlantean Purist #3:

Where is he?!

Nanaue Sha'ark: 

No... chum ... never ... rescues ... Sha'ark.

Topo: 

Quiet... He will ... hear you ... besides ... I'm too weak ... to argue... Let alone ... fight. 

Tula: 

We may only have won a reprieve. I can see nothing and cannot take advantage of this.

Superboy:

That's okay. I can. 

 

Tula: 

Superboy has won the battle.

Kaldur'ahm:

But we are ... losing ... the war ... unless ...

The Search for Mera - Young Justice (2011)

 Kaldur'ahm: (Telepathy)
M'gann. Are you still in range?

M'gann: (Telepathy)
I'm here, Kaldur. Following the Purist, we allowed to escape as planned. Sending you a mental image of the location now. 

Kaldur'ahm: (Telepathy)
Yes. I see it. S'atiroman Cave. Wait for us.

Kaldur'ahm: 
Topo, Sha'ark, La'gaan and Blubber are in no condition for battle.

Tula: 
Neither are you and Lori. Leave this to Garth, Superboy and I.

Kaldur'ahm: 
No, Tula. Ocean Master is too dangerous. And his Purists, too great in number.

Lori Lemaris:
Besides. If we "fish-heads" fight, not our own battles, it becomes but a new excuse for the Purists' contempt.

The Purists' Ambush - Young Justice (2011)

OLD ROMAN'S TRENCH September 7, 01:31 UTC-2

Kaldur'ahm: (Narrator)
I have hardly had time to think. I bring my friends to Atlantis and discover that in the short span since my last visit. a radical group of "Purists" has risen to torment Atlanteans who do not appear human! Now, these Purists have allied with Ocean Master to abduct our pregnant queen. There is a piece missing I do not yet see ...

Kaldur'ahm: (Telepathy)
According to Orm, one of the Purist Strongholds is deep within this trench. So, stay alert!

Kaldur'ahm: (Narrator)
Ambush! I feared this. I did not doubt Prince Orm's intelligence. But I did doubt the loyalty of his inner circle. Fortunately, I have my own inner circle. Garth, Blubber, King Nanaue Sha'ark, Lori Lemaris, La'gaan, and of course, Tula. 

Nanaue Sha'ark:
Let's get that hood off ... the tasty way.

Lori Lemaris:
Sha'ark, no!

Nanaue Sha'ark: 
Lemaris, don't ever try that again unless you truly want to be my chum!

Lori Lemaris: 
Uh, you have something ... stuck ... in your teeth.

Nanaue Sha'ark:
Nothing good!

Ocean Master's Scheme - Young Justice (2011)

S'ATIROMAN CAVE, September 7, 01:34 UTC-2

Queen Mera:
What do you want with me?

Ocean Master:
What do I want? Only what is mine, but first I want your power.
 

Queen Mera:
Stop... Please. You drain ... my lifeforce... and I am with child. 

Ocean Master:
An heir to the throne of Atlantis? Yes. A tragedy if such a child survived not this night. But at least the babe will be in good company!

Ekkathariste migades kaiakatharta! 
EKKAΘAPIΣTE MIΓAΔEΣ KAI AKAΘAPTA
Clean the impure and half-breeds!

The Prince joins the search - Young Justice (2011)

POSEIDONIS, September 7, 00:41 UTC-2

Prince Orm:

Kaldur'ahm! Kaldur? ... Kaldur, are you alright?!

Kaldur'ahm: 

Prince Orm? ... The Queen?!

Prince Orm: 

I have sent word to King Orin. But Aquaman is on a mission with The Justice League and cannot be reached. So, it is up to us to save our queen. 

Kaldur'ahm:

And the heir she carries.

Prince Orm:

Of course. Now, my sources inform me of two possible Purist strongholds. But as members of The Royal Guard may have been complicit in the abduction, I will investigate one location with the few guards I trust implicitly, while you and your two surface friends investigate the other.

Kaldur'ahm:

Agreed. But swim carefully Prince Orm. Ocean Master s formidable and dangerous.

Prince Orm:

So, it is said.

Queen Mera Kidnapped - Young Justice (2011)

POSEIDONIS, September 6, 23:45 UTC -2

Ocean Master:
Sweet dreams, my queen?

POSEIDONIS, September 6, 23:50 UTC-2

Kaldur'ahm: (Telepathy)

Superboy, M'gann, perhaps you'd prefer the Bio-Ship to sleeping in Atlantean Pods?

Superboy: (Telepathy)

I'd be fine ... If you'd just stop calling them "pods."

M'gann:

I prefer this, Kaldur. It reminds me of being back in the womb. 

Queen Mera: (Telepathy)

Kaldur'ahm! Se echō anankē!

KAΛΔΥP'AM! ΣE EΧΩ ANAΓKH! 

Kaldur'ahm! I need you. 

Kaldur'ahm:

Anassa Mera!

ANAΣΣA MHΡA!

Queen Mera!

Kaldur'ahm: (Telepathy)

There! It's Ocean Master! And he has the Queen!

Kaldur'ahm: 

Hold traitors! Release Queen Mera! … Unhand her!

Ocean Master:

Delay them! … 

Ocean Master:

You know where to take her.

Kaldur'ahm:

You will not take her anywhere!

Ocean Master:

So now the fish-head issues commands? A little time among royalty, and he believes himself royal as well. But proximity does not create majesty, fish-head. Nor wisdom apparently. The Royal Palace has spells in place, allowing only the use of defensive magic ... But outside the palace is quite a different story.

The Leader of Purists is revealed - Young Justice (2011)

ATLANTIC OCEAN, September 6, 20:09 UTC-2

Ronal: 

If Kaldur and his friends had not intervened, those fish-heads would all have been marked impure! Especially Lemaris!

Ocean Master:

Then it is fortunate Aqualad did intervene. For anonymity is the Purists' greatest weapon. Put on your hoods, my children! They are to you what Neptune's Trident is to The Ocean Master. The hour is close at hand. Good King Orin is away and by the time he returns, Poseidonis will be purged of the impure. And since the King himself is pure, he will soon recognise the wisdom of our actions. 

Ronal:

But what of Kaldur'ahm and his surface dwellers?

Ocean Master:

Fear them not but be ready. And so, depart.
