Hal: Whoa.
Tomar-Re: Have you concluded admiring yourself?
Hal: Uh...Yeah.
Tomar-Re: Well, your ring translator is functioning properly. Your mask will appear when protection of your identity is required. There is no need for it on Oa.
Hal: A talking fish.
Tomar-Re: Actually, my race is Xudarian. Our DNA1 does somewhat re百度竞价推广ble your own ichthyological species. I am Tomar-Re, protector of Sector2 2813 and home to
Hal: 80,012 galaxies3, 2.34 million sentient4 species. How do I know that?
Tomar-Re: The induction5 process. It activates6 the ring's higher functions, including a working knowledge base. In truth, we were curious. The process had never been attempted on a species as young as humans before. As you are the first to be chosen, I've been sent to welcome you here.
Hal: And here is?
Tomar-Re: Welcome to Oa. This planet has been our home for countless7 millennia8. It was created for us by the Guardians9.
Hal: Guardians?
Tomar-Re: There stands their Citadel10. They are immortals11, among the most ancient of races. They made all you see and are responsible for all we are and do. Since time immemorial, the Green Lantern Corps13 has served as the keepers of peace, order and justice throughout the universe. To be chosen to join its ranks is the highest of honors...and the greatest of responsibilities.
Hal: Yeah. Yeah, that part I heard about.
Tomar-Re: We're going to fly now.
Hal: Fly?
Tomar-Re: Absolutely.
Hal: All right. I can do that.
Tomar-Re: Join me.
Hal: I can do that. Yeah! Whoa! What is that?
Tomar-Re: It's the energy that's generated from the Central Battery. Its power comes from the will of every living creature in the universe. It, in turn, charges your lantern, which, in turn, charges your ring. Even your suit is comprised entirely14 of energy.
Hal: What's with all the green?
Tomar-Re: Green is the color of will. The Guardians harnessed will because it's the strongest source of energy in the universe.
Hal: There's so many.
Tomar-Re: The stars you can see from your home planet on the clearest night...your sector is a thousand times larger. And 3600 Lanterns, each with a sector just as vast.
Thaal Sinestro: Lanterns, I've called you here to this unprecedented15 gathering16 because we face an unprecedented danger. Our four Lantern brothers were killed by an enemy called Parallax. An enemy we don't yet fully17 understand. We do know it's powerful enough to destroy entire civilizations. Powerful enough to defeat even Abin Sur...our finest warrior18...whose light can never be replaced. The Guardians have charged me to lead a squadron of Lanterns in an assault on Parallax. We will seek out and find this enemy. And we will destroy it. Alone, we are now vulnerable. United, we are still invincible19. We have never been defeated. Will we be defeated now?
All Green Lanterns: No!
Thaal Sinestro: It was for this moment that we were created. But I don't need to tell you your duty. I don't need to tell you who we are.
All Green Lanterns: We are the Corps! We are the Corps! We are the Corps! We are the Corps!
Tomar-Re: Your will turns thought into reality. To master the ring, you must learn to focus your will and create what you see in your mind. The ring's limits are only what you can imagine.
Hal: Do that again.
Tomar-Re: Now you try. Concentrate. The ring will inform you where there is an imminent20 threat. This particular threat's name is Kilowog. He'll be your combat training officer.
Hal: Whoa!
Kilowog: Never let your guard down, poozer. Welcome to Ring Slinging21 101. Or as I like to call it: The worst day of your worthless life.
