Synopsis:
Arion has returned to Atlantis which is under attack from Thamuz, a city ruled by D'Tilluh's son M'Zalle. Arion helps defend the city against attack and defeats a band of assassins. The mage learns that a rival sorcerer working for Thamuz seeks a secret hidden beneath the city. The other mage is Garn Daanuth who has taken command of the forces from Thamuz.
Meanwhile in the wastelands, Lady Chian and Wyynde try to find their way back to Atlantis under the mistaken belief that Arion is dead. They encounter a girl named Mara fleeing from Thamuz. She carries with her a crystal ram's head which soldiers have been dispatched to retrieve. Chian and Wyynde defeat the soldiers, then bring Mara back to Atlantis.
