Synopsis:
When the Warlord attempts to return to Skartaris from ancient Wizard World, he is instead drawn into a living room in New Jersey. As he attempts to orient himself to the unexpected surroundings he is attacked by a warrior woman. Just when he is gaining the upper hand, she disappears into thin air.
Next a bartender appears. He serves Morgan a drink which is drugged. Morgan is incapacitated, then nearly killed by a group of priests. He recovers and fights the priests and a fire demon which they summoned. Finally he faces Tweedledee and Tweedledum who are armed with a chainsaw.
Morgan is confused by the situation which is actually being manipulated by Jack and Mike. They are playing a game called Devils and Demons with the Warlord caught in the middle. Their boss shows up and puts a stop to the game. Travis Morgan is then returned to Skartaris, more confused than ever by his experiences.
