Story

Mantra continues to seek Boneyard, but he teleports away. Notch and Boneyard's knights try to capture Mantra, but she manages to kill them all. The Gwendorians want their armor and the Sword of Fangs back, but since Mantra still needs them, she escapes back to Earth, taking the items with her. Since Archimage is now dead, Mantra enlists Prime's aid to create a male body for herself. He takes her to Doc Gross' old lab. They find Duey (was has Gross trapped inside him) there and force him to make the body. The manufactured body goes berserk and attacks Prime and Mantra while Duey escapes, but Mantra is able to destroy the body.
