Our heroes left Odin's kingdom and the compass led them to a new adventure. The compass led to Caerleon's kingdom. Annis wanted her husband back and they revived him. A patrol caught and killed some scouts of Mordred, who left Ismere. The patrol took from the dead an ancient scroll about the horn of Cathbhadh.

"A powerful magic object that makes you see loved ones who died." said Zedd

"A useless horn I suppose, nothing more." said Cara.

"Not as useless as you think." said Arthur.

"What happened?" said Gwen.

"He brought the dead soul of Uther to life," said Merlin. "And destroyed all that he loved to make his kingdom powerful."

"We must find and destroy it," said Rahl.

Zedd said, "If we call the Keeper at the Stone of Nemethon, his soul will be free in our world and nothing can hurt him."

"If Sisters of the Dark revive it," said Nicci.

"We will lose the fight before we begin," said Lancelot.

"And the Keeper will rule the world," said Gwaine.

"Where is it?" said Percival. "You must find it before Morgana does."

"Release me, now," said Mordred.

Annis said, "Kill him!"

"No, confess him," said Cenred.

"I have a better idea," said Denna. "We can revive your girlfriend, Kara. And I will torture her with my Agiel in front of you."

"No... Please," said Mordred.

"Nicci, Merlin, and Cara, help me," said Denna.

"Mordred!" said Kara. "I am alive."

"Not any longer," said Denna.

"Stop it, please... Stop," said Kara.

"I will do everything you want, stop it," said Mordred.

"She remains here," said Cara. "Say, Morgana, if he tries stopping us-"

"She will suffer until she dies," said Denna. "I will resurrect her again and will torture her again. Death isn't an option for me."

"You are so cruel," said everyone else.

"Take her to prison," said Annis.

"We win in a week," said Kahlan.

"He will stop Morgana to save his girlfriend," said Percival.

"I hope so," said Arthur.

In the morning, Shota tried her vision powers. In her vision, she saw Morgana and her helpers and our heroes. That witch who gave Arthur the horn of Cathbhadh told them about a secret place. They did not know where this place was, but they asked Gaius to find it. The scouts searched Caerleon's entire kingdom. From the vision, they understood it would be a race for the horn and the horn would be the prize.

Zedd told a story about magic. "I want to tell a story about a king and his serving boy..."

"Me and Merlin," said Arthur.

"Right. Gwen told me what happened when you discovered Merlin's magic.

Shota did a vision, spell and saw what happened and I didn't expect it to happen like this when you are such good friends."

"But he lied to me all the time," said Arthur. "How would you feel if your brother lied to you about the most important thing about him?"

"He would kill me," said Merlin.

"Are you sure?" said Zedd. "You were best friends from the beginning, a lie can't ruin a friendship."

"You are not only one, Arthur," said Richard. "I was born in Brenidon. Rahl's troops killed all babies because of the prophecy. Zedd saved my life and took me to Hartland. There I lived twenty-two years knowing nothing about myself. I discovered I would become the Seeker, but I didn't know what that was."

"You never told him his destiny was to kill me," said Rahl.

"No, I let him live like a normal child."

"And how did you feel?" said Arthur.

"That isn't all," said Richard. "He never told me he was my grandfather. He told me last year. Something strange happened and I couldn't control the saber and when I tried to kill Zedd. I learned how to control the saber again."

"But you didn't," said Zedd.

"You mean, how close Arthur was to kill me when he found out I was a sorcerer," said Merlin.

"But you are my friend, whatever happens."

"A strong friendship," said Annis.

"How do you think I knew you would become friends?" said Zedd.

"Magic?" said Lancelot.

"Another strange friendship that I thought would never be possible," said Rahl.

"Between who and who?" said Percival.

"A Confessor and a Mord-Sith," said Gwen.

"Kahlan and Cara I suppose," said Leon.

"Yes," said Zedd. "Merlin represents the Confessor and Arthur the Mord-Sith."

"Why said that?" said Cara. "He isn't strong enough to hold an Agiel or fight it."

"Oh, my god! Haha!" said Zedd. "A Confessor is born with powers and a Mord-Sith is born without power, but she becomes one with the other."

"What do you mean?" said Nicci.

"People poisoned your mind making thought the magic was evil," Annis and Verna said.

"Then you discovered the truth," said Kahlan.

"I can't believe," said Cara, "but the biggest enemy of a Mord-Sith is a Confessor. Still, she is like my sister."

"Did you get hit in the head?" said Rahl.

"No, she is all right," said Richard.

"It is a great story about friendship and magic," said Annis. "We shouldn't judge a book by its cover."

In the morning, they went hunting, helped villagers, and trained with guards. Gwen practiced her fighting style with Nicci, Verna, and Annalina. They taught her how to use light and dark magic. Derian, a personal bodyguard of Annis and her husband, liked her and hugged her. Cara hit him with her Agiel and knocked him onto a door while Arthur spoke with Annis. It surprised the guards from the throne room.

"Don't watch me like this," said Cara. "If he touches me again, I will cut off that hand with a knife." She exited the throne room.

"I know you like every girl," said Annis, "but watch out they aren't your toy."

"I love her..." said Derian.

"She has been with Leo already," said Arthur. "She has a boyfriend and wants to marry him."

"I like this Mord-Sith," said Cenred. "They are so cruel. It's too bad both have boyfriends."

"You were in prison and saw Kara," said Arthur.

"Yes," said Cenred.

"If you are here," said Annis, "who rules your kingdom?"

"Uther does, my castle is near him."

Mordred returned in bad shape to Morgana and Giller healed him. Morgana, when she heard they lost the scroll, was very nervous. Mordred begged her not doing anything for a week because they had resurrected Kara. Giller used his powers and saw how Denna tortured Kara with the Agiel. She had to make a hard decision because Denna knew Mordred would ask Giller to see what happen. Morgana waited seven days to take action again and did it for Mordred.

Gaius found nothing in his books about the place that Shota saw in her vision but he found a death arena in a book. He told them about it and scouts of Annis would go there finding information. In the next second, a witch appeared and activated the power of the ring to see all.

The witch said, "A race of impossible friendship, but this friendship will come true. My light will choose who are the teams of light and dark. The light team is Arthur, Merlin, Cara, and Kahlan and the dark team are Morgana, Mordred, Helios, and Giller. Great prizes will be on this horn. Use it with your mind."

They took supplies and left the castle to find that place. Shota cast a spell to follow them. Both teams did not know where to find it. Our heroes camped in the forest and talked about this challenge. They had a big surprise when the Sisters of the Dark attacked them. A sister threw a Dacra and almost hit Merlin in the head, but Arthur jumped on him and wounded in the chest. Kahlan confessed a sister and pulled the Dacra from Arthur.

"Why did you do that!" said Merlin. "You almost died."

"If I didn't push you, that Dacra would be in your head," said Arthur.

"Ok," said Kahlan, "where are the dead bodies?"

"Where is that confessed Sister of the Dark?" said Arthur.

"She was here," said Cara. "Why is this grass burned where she was?"

"I don't know," said Merlin.

"You lie, Merlin," said Kahlan. "I felt the power of the horn during the attack."

"Many dead bodies that disappear, a Sister of the Dark that confessed disappear, is the power of the horn...?" said Arthur.

"So if the horn does that, what do you know about it?" said Cara.

"I used to see my father after he died..." said Arthur.

"Where did you go?" said Kahlan.

"To the Stones of Nemethon," said Merlin.

"If that ghost witch is a guardian, where can you hide it to protect it?" said Cara.

"At Stones of Nemethon," said Arthur. "We will take five days with horses. We leave in the morning."

In another part of the forest, the Sisters of the Dark attacked Helios, Morgana, Mordred, and Giller. They did not understand why their allies attacked them. After the fight, the dead bodies disappeared. He took a dagger and cut his hand. He wrote in his journey book to the Palace of People in Middle-land and asked about the horn. They said he had to go to the Stones of Nemethon.

Morning came and our heroes have attacked again. The biggest surprise was when they saw an old version of Nicci with an army of the Sisters of the Dark. All followed them and Nicci made a face when she saw who it was.

"Nicci-are you, all right? What happened?" said Lancelot.

"That was me after they killed me."

"What?" everyone said.

Old Nicci said, "As long as Mother Confessor's pure heartbeats, the Keeper's journey will fail."

"Who is that?" said Merlin.

"An old version of Sister Nicci," said Cara.

"With Sisters of the Dark," said Arthur.

Strange fights began. Merlin fought with Nicci and Cara, Kahlan and Arthur with Sisters of the Dark. They did not know what was going on. The same enemies as our heroes attacked Morgana, Mordred, Giller, and Helios again.

"How was she killed?" said Merlin.

"The fight was in the desert when almost lost Richard," said Cara, "Leo died protecting Kahlan. Zedd burned her and she blew up."

"Now I know why you want to kill her," said Arthur.

"History repeating?" said Kahlan.

"Or it is a fight in our memories?" said Merlin

"We should continue our journey," said Arthur.

After the fight, they left that place because they had a long way to the Stones of Nemethon. They were curious about what surprise they would find. Night came and they camped at an inn. Bad mistake, because the Sisters of the Dark attacked again. This time Nicci was in a new body dresses in Sister of the Dark clothes. They destroyed the inn in the fight. Arthur gave some money to repair it. In the morning, they left the inn.

"What we can expect to happen now?" said Cara.

"More enemies?" said Arthur.

"A rift from the Underworld," said Merlin.

"Watch out... We are under attack!" said Kahlan.

"You and your big mouth, Merlin," said Arthur.

The potential of Rahl said, "My friend, what are you doing here?"

"He is FAKE," said Kahlan. "Five Mord-Siths helped him and another five Sisters of the Dark."

"No, that is impossible... That's me..." said Cara.

Again, a strange fight happened. Arthur dueled with the Rahl potential, a Sister of the Dark and a Mord-Sith. Cara and Kahlan fought with Evil Cara, Dahlia, and another two Mord-Siths. Merlin fought with the Sisters of the Dark. All put the same question in their minds, "Is this the end, or do more challenges await us?" In a day, they would reach the stones of Nemethon. That meant they had to watch out because Morgana or the guardians of the witch might attack them. They camped there, but an army of crows attacked them. Those crows were Mord-Siths and Rahl again. At last, they beat him. Morning came, but a group of Mord-Siths attacked them before reaching. They beat them and reached the tower. There they met Morgana with her team.

The witch said, "Both teams have arrived."

"Enough with your stupid games," said Morgana.

"Where is the horn?" said Merlin.

"Mordred... Hello?" said Cara. "Do you remember me?"

"You are a monster... You tortured a girl," said Morgana.

"If Cara or Denna are monsters, what are you?" said Merlin.

"You destroyed everything," said Arthur. "You want the entire kingdom with your selfish games."

"I want everything to be good for sorcerers," said Morgana.

"You lie... Arthur is right," said Kahlan.

"You remember me, my dear?" said Giller.

"I made the biggest mistake of my life when I took you to the Druids to teach you about magic," said Merlin.

"No... Your biggest mistake was when you poisoned me," said Morgana.

"He did it because he wanted to protect his friends," said Cara, "and he could cure you but your retard friend stole you."

"Morgause poisoned your mind," said Arthur.

"You make me laugh," said Helios.

"Enough talking!" said the Witch. "You must fight to take it."

They started fighting. Merlin with Giller, Arthur with Mordred, Cara with Morgana and Kahlan with Helios. After a long battle, the enemies lost. Helios knocked down Merlin with a punch, he hit his head, and he fell unconscious. The Witch saw Arthur suffer for this. She realized that was a true friendship and stopped the fight. She gave the horn to Arthur and teleported them to Caerleon's kingdom. They destroyed the horn.

"Why did you do that?" said Morgana.

"Because you use selfish games, you and nothing more don't deserve it," said the Witch.

"Should I kill her?" said Helios.

"I am dead already," said the Witch. "You can't kill me. Also, Morgana, it was your fault. If Mordred was your friend you would ignore the mission for the Keeper and let them win."

"What are you talking about?" said Mordred.

"I mean she had to do something for you, but she refused it. I mean, if she waits much longer then, as that Mord-Sith said, you did that for your girlfriend, Kara."

"And I suppose that's the true test of friendship, right? If we let them, the horn would have been ours."

"They destroyed it!" She disappeared

"They won the battle, but not the war," said the Keeper.

After an hour, Merlin woke up and understood what happened. He fell and Arthur caught him. Cara remembered a poem and said it. She said all incompetent servants deserved that, except Merlin. He was funny and she cannot be mad about him.

"When my servants drop things or dribble the wine," started Cara.

After this torture poetry by Cara, they started laughing. Annis was happy because her husband lived again. Now the Keeper could not come into our world because it destroyed the horn.
