Synopsis

Mordru's agent, the vampiric Vrykos is lamenting his orders from Mordru not to directly engage the Legionnaires he has captured, when he notices that Laurel Gand, no longer a Legionnaire has broken in to free her husband Rond Vidar, the captive Green Lantern. As Mordru's orders do not apply to her, he goes to battle her, hopefully being able to feed on her and thus gain her Daxamite powers. He confronts her at the pit where Rond is being held captive.

Rokk Krinn is having dinner with Mordru where his negotiations reveal that Mordru is not only in possession of Mysa Nal, but Rond Vidar, a fact the Legionnaires did not know.

The battle between Laurel and Vrykos breaks through many levels of Mordru's palace, waking up the captive Legionnaires who regroup and make their escape coming across Vrykos and Laurel's battle. Kono uses her abilities to send Vrykos down several levels. Still under orders not to battle the Legionnaires, Vrykos decides to feed on Rond Vidar.

Mysa laments her position as Mordru's wife and captive, as he has been inflicting his cruel revenge upon her.

Rokk Krinn uses the new information he's gained from Mordru to his advantage when Mordru, slightly peeved at his loss of advantage in the negotiations takes them out to his garden.

As Mysa attempts to help Rond Vidar, she is stopped by Vrykos who punishes her, but is stopped by the Legionnaires, who switch Rond with Cham. Desperate, Vrykos attempts to feed on Mysa, who uses a spell to nearly disintigrate Vrykos with a flash of sunlight.

Knowing the Mordru's power is stretched too thin to afford a confrontation with the Legion right now, and later battle the Khunds or Glorith, Mordru has no choice but to let the Legion leave with Mysa and Rond.

Devlin O'Ryan, Celeste Rockfish and Bounty leave Trom with Jan Arrah to go to Winath to attend Blok's funeral in the Legion cruiser Jan took to Trom.

As a parting shot at the Legion, Mordru stranded them days from civilization. Vrykos will be reconstituted by Mordru's priestess.

A research station tracks Green Energy from Earth to Trom and it is heading to Winath, just as the group that went to retrieve Jan Arrah.
