Glumshanks had instructed Flynn to wait on his ship while he went to talk to his previous master, Kaos' mother. The tall troll frowned as he made his way through the old castle. He looked around as he saw shadows of memories wandering around. He had raised Kaos there from the moment the boy was born, and for a few months, his twin sister as well. He remembered many things. True, he knew he wasn't the smartest creature in Skylands, but he was one of the smartest trolls. He was unique only because he was the last of his kind. He was a guardian troll, but unknown to most, he was also a type of Skylander, which was why he got along with the Skylanders so easily. He had lost his original master years before Eon had met him, and even so, he didn't let anyone know he was one.

He made his way to the throne room where Kaos' mother, Krystal, was still locked up in her mirror prison. "Hello, Ma'am."

"Glumshanks, my you're looking better. Has Kaos finally started to treat you better?"

"Yes he has, madam, but there's something that I want to know and you are the only one who could possibly answer me."

"Oh? What pray tell is that?" She didn't like the tone of his voice. It was similar to the voice he had used when Kaos was a baby. She hadn't wanted to care for Kaos, as he had powers that were mostly good, not that anyone but she and Glumshanks knew that. Glumshanks had hated himself but had managed to convince her that trying to train him as a Dark portal master would be better than whatever she had done to his twin sister.

"What did you do to Harmony?"

Krystal's eyes glowed red with fury. She looked like she was willing to give another go at breaking out of the mirror. "What do you mean?" She loathed to admit that she had even had a daughter, especially with how her son had turned out. She hadn't seen him in a while either. 'I thought I had gotten rid of his memories of that brat! She had too much light in her.'

"I mean your daughter, Lord Kaos' twin sister. The one with the birthmark on her wrist that looks sorta like the one on his head. That Harmony."

He didn't flinch as power seemed to surround him. In fact, he embraced it, letting himself absorb some of the energy. Krystal was furious. So furious in fact that Glumshanks started to notice cracks starting to form in the mirror. He frowned as he felt an ancient power awakening along with her powers. "You dare address me in such a manner? Glumshanks, I do believe you forget your place. I banished Harmony to another realm, and I can easily do the same to you."

"Like you did with your husband's Skylanders?" After finding out that she was pregnant, she had banished her husband's Skylanders and had killed him in one of her tantrums. Looking back on it, she would say that it was bound to happen anyway. Glumshanks, who had been a servant of her late husband, had become the nanny to the twins as soon as they were born, and had sworn on their late father's soul to do his best to protect them. He felt that he had failed with Harmony, but he did his best with Kaos, taking whatever punishment the boy had given him over the years as justification for failing them.

"What's brought this up anyway?" Krystal tried to calm herself down a touch. She really did like Glumshanks and respected him for putting up with Kaos for as long as he did. She just hated the fact that he was protective of both her children, and tended to have a good heart.

"I'll tell you this, Lady Krystal; a young portal master named Harmony has been brought to Skylands by accident."

"WHAT!" She started losing her temper again.

"She actually looks similar to you and Lord Kaos." Glumshanks shrugged. "She even has the birthmark on her wrist."

"WHY CAN'T THAT BRAT DIE?" This time the mirror shattered with a dark purple smoke covering the entire mirror. Glumshanks didn't move though. "I'm free… I'm free…" When the smoke cleared, Glumshanks found himself looking at Krystal, still in full power, despite the Darkness being gone.

"I have a better question." Glumshanks sighed as he headed towards the door. "Why do I keep failing?" He muttered as he felt her powers continue to grow and attack him.

Flynn was nervously waiting on his ship for Glumshanks to return. His eyes widened in horror as he saw the large explosion from within the castle. Out of the explosion came the evil laughter of the strange villainous mother of Kaos.

He turned his attention to the ground separating him from the castle. Glumshanks was obviously hurt, but the tall troll still made his way towards the ship. "FLYNN GET OUT OF HERE!"

"What?" He was shocked. The troll was telling him to go without him. "Come on, hurry up!" He shouted back. "You can make it!"

Glumshanks ran as fast as he could but suddenly some land blew up before he could make it to the ship. He did a quick glance to his master's mother who had risen behind him from the crumbling castle as a fifty foot giant. The fear in his eyes only lasted a moment before he remembered what he really was. He then glared at Flynn who was still trying to figure out how to save the troll.

"Flynn, get back to the academy and tell Kaos and Harmony that they have to protect each other."

"WHAT? Who's Harmony?"

"The Portal Master that's been sending Skylanders to help! Kaos' twin sister!" Suddenly he found himself grabbed by the giant evil queen. "TELL THEM I'M SORRY!" He called as the queen brought him up to her face.

Flynn was terrified at the sight before him, but knew that he couldn't do anything for his friend on his own. "Hang tight! I'll get the Skylanders!" Flynn started his ship and blasted away before he too could be grabbed. 'You better hang in there, Glumshanks… hang on…'

Krystal glared at the troll in her hands. "You know… if you weren't such a good servant, I'd kill you right now. But I need you as bait. Kaos will come for you, and so will Harmony. Kaos will want you back because you're one of his best minions, and Harmony? Well if I'm still right about her as I was all those years ago, she'll come to save you because she's a goody two shoes."

Glumshanks glared at the queen. "You're problem is that you always underestimate your enemies, but you underestimate your family more. Harmony was the portal master who beat you with her Skylanders, all without stepping foot in Skylands. Kaos stopped the Darkness from destroying Skylands." Glumshanks grunted as he struggled to get free. 'You also underestimate me…' He looked up to the skies above with a silent prayer. 'Master, if you still watch us, protect your twins in my stead. I'm sorry I failed as your Skylander…' Then he looked back at his captor, his current masters' mother. 'I stink as a Skylander… I wish I had my gear right now…'
