What is, is what must be." - Lord Frith, in the film adaption of Watership Down . The Story Lord Frith is the sun, whom the rabbits deem as a god. According to the rabbits, he created the world. He is known to have several messengers, like The Black Rabbit of Inle or Prince Rainbow. He uses these to messengers to comunicate with the animals of Earth when he is unable to. Lord Frith stopped communicating with animals after the days of El-ahrairah, Prince Rainbow, and Rabscuttle were over. El-ahrairah was the Prince of the forest, with his people living in peace and harmony with the other animals of the forest. Until one day, when his people started multiplying out of control. Lord Frith told him to control them, but El-ahrairah told Frith that his people are the strongest in the world.Lord Frith saw this as arrogance and told El-ahrairah that if he won't control his people, that he will do it. So, he gave a gift to every animal and bird in the forest. However, with these gifts came predators such as a dog a wolf, a hawk, a fox, and a weasel. To each of them, Frith gave them the desire to hunt and kill El-ahrairah's people. But Lord Frith also wanted to bestowed a gift upon El-ahrairah and his people. El-ahrairah was running when Frith came to see him, for he knew that Frith was upset with him so El-ahrairah said that if there was a gift to be given then it should go to his bottom. So Frith gave him the gifts of speed, cunning, digging, and a good sense of hearing, and he told him that his people no longer cover the world, but as long as they use the gifts he gave to them, they will never perish. Trivia Frith is Old English for peace and freedom from molestation. Lord Frith is voiced by Michael Hordern in the film.
- "All the world will be your enemy, Prince of a Thousand enemies. And when they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you; digger, listener, runner, Prince with the swift warning. Be cunning, and full of tricks, and your people will never be destroyed."- Lord Frith "Long ago, Frith made the world. He made all the stars, too, and the world is one of the stars. He made them by scattering his droppings all over the sky and this is why the grass and the trees grow so thick on the world. Frith makes the rivers flow. They follow him as he goes through the sky, and when he leaves the sky they look for him all night. Frith made all the animals and birds, but when he first made them they were all the same. The sparrow and the kestrel were friends and they both ate seeds and flies. And the fox and the rabbit were friends and they both ate grass. And there was plenty of grass and plenty of flies, because the world was new and Frith shone down bright and warm all day.- Narrator "There is not a day or night that a doe does not offers her life for her kittens, or some honest captain of Owsla, his life for his chief.
