Synopsis:
Etrigan the Demon has returned and battles the forces of Morgaine Le Fey in the underground tomb of Merlin beneath Castle Branek. Although, he is able to defeat most of her warriors, the Demon is the victim of a spell which transforms him back into Jason Blood.
Blood is found by Inspector Stavic, the local lawman in Moldavia. Blood discovers that Merlin's tomb is actually the Book of Eternity which Le Fey was seeking. He and Stavic track down the sorceress who is using the book to grant herself eternal youth.
While watching the ritual, Jason and the inspector are attacked by a Gorla. On the other side of the world, Jason's friend Randu senses danger psychically and is able to speak the words which once again transform Blood into Etrigan. The Demon defeats the Gorla, then attacks Le Fey who disappears. It is unknown whether her spell was successful.
