	Some time later, amidst the war against the [[undead]], the heroes [[Gem]], [[Gelu]], [[Yog]] and [[Crag Hack]] band together to combat the threat. They arrange to meet at the plains of [[Bragden]], but are ambushed by [[Sandro]] himself and forced to flee. As they regroup, [[Yog]] recalls a task he performed earlier of dispensing the components of the [[Angelic Alliance]], a mighty sword. The team of heroes decide to seek out the pieces of the sword and reassemble it. Succeeding, they push onward into [[Deyja]], eventually cornering [[Sandro]] and defeating him.
