EARTH:

After Nova and Capricorn leave to go up to the Otherworld to save Lunar, Eclipse hears crying in an alley and goes to investigate. There, she finds the Otherworldly who took her magic, and asks what's wrong with her. She explains that she was forced to come down and fight, and gives Eclipse's magic back to gain her trust so that they can go warn the others up in the Otherworld.

OTHERWORLD:

The Otherworldly yells "STOP!" into her megaphone to get everyone into the throne room so that she can explain. She tells her story: of how she was the dungeon guard, and noticed that something was wrong from the day that the magic barrier was set on the dungeon and she found the **Eldest** at the back of the castle. She was suspicious, but couldn't prove anything until she saw someone shapeshifting into the **Eldest** one day. He held her at gunpoint and told her to go down and fight, or else. She confirms to Nova that the **Eldest** was probably thrown into the void at the back of the castle, and Khione and Libra point out that that was where Lunar, Castor, and Dusk were last seen. The ten run to the back of the castle, Pollux and Remus at the forefront, and find a solemn Castor sitting on the edge of the cliff over the void with a guard passed out next to him. Pollux asks him what happened, and he tells him that the guard threw Dusk into the void and that Lunar went in to get him. Remus grabs the guard and smacks her awake, but all she says is that "Starstreak is the impostor" and wrenches out of his grasp to throw herself into the void. Remus stands in horror as the others catch up. Pollux explains to everyone the situation, and upon asking, the Otherworldly tells them that the void is filled with black magic and demons that do their best to tear you apart. She says that someone would need a very strong will to get themselves out, let alone someone else, but Lunar's friends are sure that she'll make it out. Suddenly, they hear a shout, and find that Dusk climbed out. There is a brief wave of relief before everyone realized that Lunar is still down there. Starstreak finally caught up to the ten and had the Otherworldly at gunpoint, until everyone ran in and Dusk held back to fight him longer. Castor stays on the cliff, praying that Lunar gets out alive, and gets flickers of a mind message of her trying to tell him that she might not make it out and for him to tell everyone that she loves them. This makes him break down in tears for a while. Meanwhile, Remus stumbles his way out of the palace, still trying to wrap his head around the fact that his dad was impersonating the **Eldest** and making all of this happen. The one moment his guard was down, an Otherworldly nearly gave him a mortal injury, but they got hit in the leg by a spear, making them fall so that Remus could stab them through and live. He turned around to see who had thrown the spear, and to his surprise, saw Pluto. They stared at each other for a bit, before Remus said a quiet thank you. Pluto just nodded, avoiding eye contact. Remus slowly began to say why he had left, and although the fact that Pluto acted like he was ignoring him made him want to just beat him up again, he knew that Pluto was still listening. While this was happening, Deimos was busy saving Dusk from Starstreak, sending Phobos after him and pulling him off somewhere. In the kitchen, the Otherworldly on their side was trying to get a frying pan of defense when an electrical fire suddenly started and quickly spread. She ran to go find and alert the people in the main hall, while Rome, who was in the vicinity of the kitchen when the fire started, ran outside to let Remus and Pluto know that they have to run. He noticed that they seemed to be in the middle of something, but the fire was more imminent. Castor, being at the back of the palace, didn't know about the fire. He suddenly heard his name called, and reached over the edge of the cliff to pull up Lunar. She was very bloody, but she somehow had bandages in her pocket and she was somehow still alive. Castor has to carry her on his back, but as they run inside to leave, they get caught in the fire. Everyone else outside realizes that Lunar and Castor are still in the palace.
