EXTENDED SYNOPSIS:
King Zad (Steven Grives) is tormented by dreams of his own death at the hands of an unknown child. Unable to come to terms with this dream, he approaches the Sorceress (Monika Schnarre) with his plan to draw all the children of the lands to him to find his fated killer. The Sorceress decides to help him find the right child and gives him a magical baby mobile that will transform into the Shadow of Death when in the presence of the special child.

Meanwhile, Dar (Daniel Goddard) and Tao (Jackson Raine) find a baby that has been saved from a ravaging river by Sharak. They decide to find the child's parents and Tao notices that the baby changes color to camouflage itself in its surroundings. They arrive in the village of Samaria and are lured into an ambush by Chiron (Paul Leydon), a man with a charming smile and greed in his heart. Dar and Tao lose the baby and learn from Mara (Krissie Steen), the infant's mother, that Chiron will take the child to the Terron camp in exchange for shiny stones.

The Ancient One (Grahame Bond) compliments the Sorceress on the creation of the mobile, but warns her about playing with fate and death. He tells the Sorceress that animosities tend to last a long time and he reminds her of his rivalry with the Black Apparition of the Burning Forest as an example. Despite Dar and Tao's best efforts, Chiron gives the special child to Terron warriors. Geza (Jarrod Dean), the father of the baby, confronts Chiron and is about to kill him, but Mara intervenes. She tells Geza that the angels that gave them their son will punish Chiron in due time.

Meanwhile, King Zad becomes anxious to have the baby in his possession. The Sorceress casts a spell on Zad to quiet him down and discovers the child's mystic properties. She decides to keep the baby herself and makes Zad believe that the child has been killed. Dar and Tao execute an attack on the Terrons, but are surprised by the rampaging Geza. While Mara watches from a distance, she is possessed by the Shadow of Death, which was sent by the Sorceress to fetch the child. Dar and Tao run to intercept the possessed woman. Dar engages her in battle and Tao devises a way to shine sunlight directly onto the Shadow, causing it to disappear. The baby is returned to Mara and Geza, and Dar frees the rest of the children from the Terrons. King Zad remains convinced that his danger has passed.
