Synopsis

Safely back at the Royal Palace, Neri and Jobah stand before King Nemon. Unknown to them, the King is being possessed by the evil Space Wizard, Galiel, who has the power to enter the bodies of beings weaker than himself. The "King" accuses Jobah of being a traitor, and orders that he be imprisoned. He then asks Neri to go and see Mandrool and find out the whereabouts of the three crystals. His evil work done, Galiel returns to his meteor. Neri visits Mandrool in her sacred cavern. Mandrool tells Neri that she will guide her to the location of the crystals via her dreams and visions. Mandrool later sends Neri a vision showing Galiel entering the King's body and possessing him. Neri acts quickly and frees Jobah, and they both escape through the dark and deadly "tunnel of horrors."
