A mysterious man in armor arrives on the lakeside of Belvedere Castle in Central Park. As he walks into the city, he is attacked by the local thugs. It's clear that he's a better fighter than the three of them are, and easily beats them. However, Police Officer Morgan decides to take him in . . . telling him he can't be using a sword like that in the city.

It isn't until later when Elisa hears of this man from Morgan, and that he's looking for a gargoyle. Not just any gargoyle . . . he's looking for Goliath, and Elisa's shocked to hear that he knows the clan leader's name.

Arranging a meeting near Belvedere Castle, Goliath, Elisa, and Bronx meet the old man. The moment the man spots Goliath, he is overwhelmed with joy. As it turns out, he's the young boy Tom from the night of the Wyvern Massacre . . . and he's come to find Goliath for help.

For as it turns out, the Archmage is somehow alive and the eggs from Wyvern are in danger. Jumping on a skiff, Tom tells him his long and strange tale from the year 996 onward to Goliath & Elisa . . . .

Episode Notes
 
In this episode, we finally find out what happened to the Gargoyle eggs that were entrusted to Princess Katherine and her friends in "Awakening, Part Two."
 
Though it's unclear, Greg Weisman pointed out in his rambles and on the DVD commentary that Princess Katherine is related to Macbeth: Her uncle King Kenneth II is actually Macbeth's great-grandfather.

King Kenneth II's son, Maol Calvim would eventually have a son named Findlaech . . . Macbeth's father.
 
 
Episode Quotes
 
Morgan: Throw down your weapon.
Tom: Is this a whole city of fools and lawless ruffians?
Morgan: I'm the law here, pal. See? Protect and Serve. And I say you can't be runnin' around my city with that sword.
Tom: You are a guardian, like myself. I will submit to your law.
 
Magus: Stand aside and let us pass.
Phoebe: You know better than that, Magus.
Selene: Oberon has named us guardians of his island.
Luna: No magics may enter here, save Avalon's own.
Tom: You cannot make us go back or the Princess could die! The eggs could die!
Phoebe: You screech like barn owls.
Selene: Meaningless chatter of meaningless lives.
 
Magus: I cannot go with you to Avalon. I cannot bring the Grimorum.
Princess Katharine: Then leave it.
Magus: It is the source of my magic. Without it, I am...
Princess Katharine: Still the Magus, and my friend.
