Is this for the Battle Cat I'm supposed to be getting?

Trust me, this is better.

So no then.
The energy that Eldress used
to displace the castle to Avion is very similar
to the Proto-havoc bleeding off of the sigil piece.
- [Cringer] But havoc is bad. - I know!
That's why this is so interesting. It's like Proto-havoc
and Grayskull energy are two sides of the same coin.
So there's money involved now?
All I have to do is trick the castle
into thinking I'm Eldress
using the same power.
Then I can re-displace us
and scoop her back up
from wherever we left her.
- [sighs] - One assumes I can get
a more succinct explanation from Eldress once we've found her.
Did you speak with Teela?
Yeah, and she needs backup to get
to the final sigil piece before Evelyn does.
Then let us make haste.
[Duncan] So I should just keep working on this
and not help Teela with you?
Finding Eldress helps Teela.

Not exactly, no.
