Aliens attack planet Janaidar to enslave High Adept Alahna's people. In search of a hero, she awakens a long-inert artificial-sapience. Silent and sinister, The-Creeping-Darkness tears a transdimensional-arc between universes and abducts innocent Elijah.
Alahna's desperate search for a techno-warrior-sage to teach the people of Janaidar the ways of interstellar war also inadvertently summons the Guardian Dragons of Orion. Arriving at the scene too late, the dragons find the Pillars-of-Thoth already cooling. Fearing that the NuliZhu slavers will rediscover their ultimate weapon of war, hidden by the Elder Dragons over five millennia ago, the current guardians decide thy must once again deactivate the WuShi.
In fear of losing its new-found hyper-sapience, The-Creeping-Darkness turns on the Huan Long Shui Sisters and Guardian Dragons and creates deadly mayhem.
On Earth, a swirling gateway penetrates Elijah's studio. The very moment he peers through the terrifying transdimensional-arc, a fire-dragon swoops out of the sky above the Pentakulum on Alahna's side and tries to kill her and her fire-dancers, but accidentally flames Elijah instead. Abducted into Janaidar to save his life, events take a terrifying twist when the WuShi manifests a dark-energy monster, tears Elijah apart, and revivifies him as a cyborg Tech-Master.
