LORD ASRIEL:
Gentlemen, there is a war raging
 right now with the Magisterium
between those trying to keep us
in ignorance
and those willing to fight
for truth and freedom.
Who will stand with me?
FATHER MACPHAIL:
 This kind of heresy
 is of the highest priority
 to the Magisterium.
I need to know where he's going
and what he intends to achieve.
Your uncle's packing up
to leave.
-You're not leaving!
-LORD ASRIEL: I can't stay!
The North is no place
for a child.
MARISA COULTER: Lyra.
 The Master has asked
 if I can find a place for you.
And I want you as my assistant.
You're an explorer, too?
Just like my uncle?
I can teach you
to wield power,
 but you must let me mold you.
FARDER CORAM: We believe
 there is an organization
that is stealing children...
and taking them north.
MRS. COULTER: Sometimes...
children can just...
-(SNAPS)
-...disappear.

I promised to everything I could
to protect you from harm.
 This...
 It's an alethiometer.
 It is illegal unless approved
 by the Magisterium.
LYRA BELACQUA: What does it do?
It tells you the truth.
(BIRD SCREECHES)
 She has to make a journey.
One which, I'm afraid, includes
a great betrayal.
-(DAEMON SNARLS)
-(LYRA YELPS)
You're hurting us!
MRS. COULTER: Lyra. Lyra!
It's trying to warn me
of something.
I suspect it's trying
to warn you of everything.
LEE SCORESBY:
 Lee Scoresby. I can fight.
 And I can fly.
LYRA: What question should we
 be asking you that we're not?
DR. LANSELIUS:
 The Magisterium have muscle.
I would ask where I could obtain
services of an armored bear.
LYRA: Iorek Byrnison.
-(GROWLS)
-I'm ready to fight.
These people need our help,
Iorek. Let's go give it.
(ROARS)
How am I supposed to trust you
when no one tells me the truth?
(MUFFLED SCREAM)
(PANTS)
-WOMAN: It's time.
-I know.
