As the story continues in the second volume of this landmark trilogy, both the warrior Drake and Rockman suffer serious mishaps as Maru seeks his revenge in his quest to destroy the last remnants of humanity. To conquer, Maru sets his sights on destroying the biggest and strongest that fights for good, namely, Rockman. As Rockman is caught in a diabolical trap, the giant begins his own battle of survival from within in response to his predicament. With Drake and Rockman immobilized, Maru takes the offensive with the use of the evil-eyed basilisk, Yarb, the stone hobgoblin, the black dragon, and an army of goblins and hobgoblins. The familiar heroes of Ariel, Cardell, Silverleaf, Tam, Moag, and Zigly return to fight the good fight in support of their friends; nevertheless, the tide and momentum of battle shift to the side of evil.
