Synopsis:
The Warlord and Aton begin their quest to find Jennifer Morgan. Their first stop is the city of Bantuhm where Morgan seeks to find a sword to replace the Hellfire blade. While Morgan searches for a swordsmith, Aton loses his gold and their horses to a gambler, Tevalco El Cint. The man offers to give them back if, Morgan can retrieve a jewel for him.

The jewel is kept in a tower, surrounded by a maze. Morgan and Aton navigate the maze and the traps contained therein. They reach the top of the tower and find the jewel, but Morgan leaves it behind when the tower is set afire.

Morgan and Aton return to El Cint without the jewel. The gambler then tries to cheat Morgan again. This time however, Morgan cuts off his hand and takes back the horses. As they depart, Morgan is reunited with Shakira who joins the quest.

Before the search can resume, Morgan makes another stop at the site of his plane crash to retrieve more ammunition for his gun.
