Leif quietly threw a blister at a grey guard. Pain shot through his body as he collapsed onto the floor, no longer able to move. Fili then unlocked the gates to the castle and the refugees stormed in with their swords and shields waving around their heads ready to face the Shadow King's empire. Suddenly all the refugees fell into a vast hole full of flesh banes and blood lilies. They had been trapped! Grey Guards grabbed the trio and brought them to the Shadow King himself.

Leif, Barda, and Jasmin were standing defenseless in front of the King. He walked to Barda first . Barda smiled and said, "You will die soon." "Oh, really?" said the King. The King took out a huge dagger, picked up Barda by the forehead and slashed at Barda's neck and heart. He collapsed, not breathing, all bloody. Leif next. "Time to die, Leif." the King spat in disgust. Leif hit the King. The Shadow Lord plunged the sword into the hero's head and he fell on the floor like a sack. With Jasmine they let out a vrall that ripped her to shreds and devoured her, while the Ak-Baba carried the belt away. The belt of deltora was lost forever. Or was it?
