Dialogue
Following the attack on town by an army of angry dragons, led by a ravenous and rare Were-Dragon, Galanoth, Lord Cyrus and VampireSlayer E discuss our next move...

E: I fear that this is only the beginning of something far more sinister... Galanoth: What was that? You actually FEAR something E? Cyrus: For once, tin-can man, you would do well to actually listen. The Vampireslayer tracked something from Darkovia-- the Were-Dragon. But what MADE the Were-Dragon? Cyrus: And what sent it to Battleon? And perhaps most importantly-- What is going to happen NEXT? E: I know the answer to the last question, Blue one. WE GO TO DARKOVIA.

Meanwhile, in Darkovia...

A castle rises from the ground.

????: Ahhhh yes. THIS shall be a fine, fiiiine place to stay, indeed.........

Enter Safiria and Were-King.

????: .......... YOU... have ruined a perfectly nice evening. Safiria: mmmm... I KNEW it was him. Were-King: rrrrraahhhh...... Your insticts are nothing compared to mine, undead witch!! Safiria: Let' us keep the small talk to a minimum, hairball. Shall we address the reason why we are here? Were-King: Whatever you say. NightBane, we're here for you! ????: If that is so, then I fear...

The shadowed figure reveals himself.

NightBane: ...you are dreadfully ill-equipped. Were-King: You don't scare us!! Safiria: Do not forget who you are talking to, King. NightBane nearly destroyed all Vampires and Lycanthropes once before... Were-King: But not here!! THIS is Darkovia!! This is my home! And no one will drive me from it! Not vampires, not monster-hunters! NO ONE!!! NightBane: I am tired. If you want me to kill you tonight, make it quick. Safiria: We are not here to fight you. Or rather, I am not. If the King here wishes to be mauled, so be it. I want to make a deal... NightBane: HEHEHEHEHE. I do not bargain. I do what I please. You, vampiress, seem to know what. BOTH of you, LEAVE NOW. ???: They will not leave! They will stay--

Enter Wolfwing.

Wolfwing: --and witness the fall of NightBane at the hands of WOLFWING!! NightBane: I know that voice. I did not think you would be awake-- WOLFWING. But since you are, perhaps it is best. Were-King: Let's fight NightBane together!! We can destroy him!!! Safiria: The time for me to fight is not yet here. But if you wish, wolf king, go ahead. I will enjoy the spectacle. Wolfwing: NO!! I will be the only one to put this whelp in his place! Your bridge, NightBane-- now!!! Wolfwing: You had to return, didn't you? Of all my children, you held the most promise. BUT NOW-- look at you! NightBane: You have grown pitiful. Allowing the elder races of Vampire and Werewolf to remain the rulers of Darkovia.... NightBane: If it wasn't for me, you and your WerePyres would be nothing but memories. Wolfwing: And I thanked you, with more power than I had given any other! And what did you do?? YOU DRANK THE BLOOD OF A THOUSAND DRAGONS. NightBane: Don't forget the part where I became more powerful than even you. Wolfwing: We'll see about that.

Wolfwing and Nightbane fight.

NightBane: It seems we have a case of the student teaching the master. NightBane: How I fondly recall your lessons, Wolfwing. And how you will remember this day... Wolfwing: It's not over yet, pup.

Wolfwing grabs Nightbane and flies away.

Safiria: It appears the old dog still knows a few tricks after all. NightBane: Hehehe... Wolfwing: I wouldn't laugh if I were you-- NightBane: You may be able to fly... but I can do something you can't...

Nightbane uses his breath weapon on WolfWing.

The swamplands of the southeastern end of Darkovia...

«You»: Oh no, not YOU. Listen, we have enough enemies to fight. Can you just stay out of this war?? Zorbak: Listen. I don't want to fight you. At least not now. Maybe later, but I want to help! «You»: Why do you want to help us?? Zorbak: I am EBIL. If I was pure evil, I would simply use my massive necromantic powers and turn you into an undead to serve me. But being EBIL, I will sometimes help you. «You»: Okay, okay-- so what can you do for us? Zorbak: You are trying to find NightBane. You probably will. But almost nothing can kill him. ONE WEAPON has the necessary power... the DARKLAW. «You»: Let me guess--- Only you know where it is? Zorbak: It's not hard to get-- once you defeat hundreds of thousands of vampires, werewolves, and undead. It's DEAD CENTER in Darkovia's eastern mire. Pun intended.

War! The evil force that created the Weredragons has been tracked to Darkovia. Vampireslayer E realizes that the creature who made the Weredragons could only be the legendary NightBane. Zorbak knows the location of a weapon that can do extra damage to NightBane. To get it, we need to fight through an army of deadly foes: Vampires, Werewolves, Undead and Weredragons!

Twilly: Uh-oh!! We need your help to fight these ebil dwagons!!! Twilly: If you need to be healed I can help you.
 * Heal me please.
 * Twilly: There you goes! All healed up!

''Artix, Galanoth, Vampire Slayer E, and Cyrus can be obtained as guests. Guardians can collect Zorbak (Fire Version) as a guest.''

Cyrus: Hmm.. a black war chest?


 * CLICK HERE!

The Darklaw rises from the chest.

E: With the Darklaw in our grasp, we may have a chance to defeat NightBane! Cyrus: Just a CHANCE? E: Yes. You see, NightBane is the deadliest monster to ever be born of Darkovia. Galanoth: Hmf. From what I know, the werepyre Wolfwing is the strongest creature here. E: That WOULD be an interesting match. I know the two of them have a close history. If NightBane is back, he may have joined forces with Wolfwing...

Meanwhile, at NightBane's castle...

Safiria: Do you see anything, Were-King? Were-King: mmf-- no. They have been out of view for a while now.

Enter Phelicia.

Phelicia: M-My Queen... we have failed you... The army from the East has broken through our defenses. Safiria: If Wolfwing failed, or if NightBane will not ally with us, than your failure may actually be a GOOD thing, Phelicia, my dear. Phelicia: M-My Queen? May I go now? Safiria: No. Stay here. I may need bait for NightBane. Phelicia: ......... Th--thank you. My Queen.

Wolfwing can be seen battered laying upon a dead tree.
