A Threat from the Past

Salmacis summons the fairies to deliver the prophecy of a dire catastrophe, which will befall the Meadowlands. This message casts Thalia as the fairies' only hope. It becomes evident that the trolls have opened a bottle, setting free a dangerous cloud, which sucks up all their energy and turns everything and everyone it touches into frozen statues. Drawn to Salmacis' energy, the cloud moves quickly over to the village. Only Thalia can flee to Lord Kann's citadel, where she persuades the elves and the surviving trolls to work together with herself and Phaedon. Continued in Episode 26: "Cloud of Darkness".
