Biography[]
Cecil and Sill are first present in the start of the movie, attacking Gogo, a Saddle-Billed Stork in order to eat the eggs in Gogo's basket. Sill bites Gogo just as the lightning struck over the savannah.
The following day, the marabou brothers came after Gogo, who arrived to Katungu to attack both Gogo, Tini, a weaver and the assistant of Gogo, the orphaned ducklings and Kai, a young Peregrine Falcon and the main protagonist in the film. Sill is the first to attack the protagonists, but was thwarted by Tendai, Kai's father. Later, Sill realized that he was stuck on a branch, and falls to the river. Tendai was about to save the mute marabou but was attacked. This leads to Sill drowning to his death, shocking Cecil. Cecil explains that Sill and the other marabou are starving, the only reason they are living as bandits. He warns Tendai that he will pay for the lost of his younger brother while leaving.
That night, Cecil mourns the death of his younger brother, although his cousin Morton compassionate him. The death of Sill encouraged Cecil and the marabous when fighting against Budzo and his lizard army after they realize that they have been betrayed by the sinister monitor lizard.
