By Drew Hayes. Barely escaping from Fell Keep with his life, Lusipher begins the long trek back to the First Step in an effort to recruit reinforcements for a second siege. On the way, however, Lusipher has another prophetic dream, seemingly planted in his head by a powerful individual from his past.

By Drew Hayes. As Lusiphur prepares for his showdown with the cannibalistic McLaunty clan at the Tower by the Green Shore, a young elfin thief approaches our hero with some disturbing information (at least as far as Lusiphur is concerned): it turns out this elf, who calls himself Lynn, knows everything about Lusiphur's past, and wants Lusiphur to train him. Not in the mood for an inexperienced partner, Luse scares the youngster off (but probably not for good) and storms the McLaunty clan's stronghold to find out who's been summoning him. Not content with the solution to this mystery, Drew ends issue #70 with the shocker of all shockers, as Lusiphur is transported to a locale you'll have to see to believe! Bimonthly.
