Comments:

This story continues in part in Warlord #113.

Synopsis:
Travis Morgan and Shakira are on a quest to find a cure for Morgan's daughter Jennifer. When their patrol sled is destroyed by a sea creature, they swim to shore and are found by a group of guardsmen from a nearby kingdom. Shakira is mistaken for Princess Orana who was recently captured by rebels. While Shakira impersonates Orana at the palace, Morgan tracks down and rescues the real princess. He then exposes the rebels and kills their leader, the traitor Baron Jergmav.

As Morgan and Shakira leave Orana's kingdom, they cross paths with Mariah. She has left Machiste in Kiro and traveled by mystic teleportation to join Morgan. An amulet she wears, given to her by a peddler on the streets of Kiro, causes Morgan to fall in love with her.
