Synopsis:
The Warlord and Krystovar find a secret entrance to New Atlantis. They enter the city in order to confront Cykroth directly. At the same time Mariah, Machiste, and Shakira sneak into Shamballah to disable the cannons. Outside the gates, Tara prepares her army for attack.
In New Atlantis, Graemore has followed Travis Morgan through the secret entrance and been caught by the guards. An alarm is sounded. Krystovar holds off the enemy soldiers while Morgan finds Cykroth. Krystovar is killed while trying to give the Warlord the time he needs.
Morgan eventually locates Cykroth. The wizard attempts to use magic on his foe, but the Warlord is protected from afar by the magic of his daughter. Cykroth seeks more power so he pulls energy to himself using the psychic bond he possesses with his subjects.
In Shamballah, Tara commences her attack after receiving a signal from Machiste. The enemy soldiers are weakened by Cykroth's psychic drain. In New Atlantis, Morgan's shields drop leaving him vulnerable. However, when Graemore distracts Cykroth, Morgan is able to kill the wizard. Graemore also dies.
When Cykroth is defeated, the soldier of New Atlantis in Shamballah and the rest of Skartaris also fall. Machiste then finishes off Lord Sabretooth.
After the battle Morgan searches for his daughter. As a result of magical forces she used to aid her father, Jennifer has aged into an old woman on the verge of death.
