Synopsis:
Kr'rth rampages through the streets of Atlantis. Mara tries to snap Wyynde back to reality to face the threat. When she fails, the girl leaves the palace to face the darkling prince alone.

Arion has been captured by the Abbess who seeks to use a spell to make him docile. Arion resists the spell and tricks the woman with a illusion. Once he has escaped the abbey, he returns to his tower to gain the power provided by his father's crystals. Using the power he defeats Kr'rth, but Mara is still bitter at him for all that has befallen her and her friends.
