More of joined the party, I see.  First, we meet a guy who refers to himself as Brother Death and really, really likes cleavers.  Then they are joined by two mages.  One is able to heal Scian/Michelle Yeoh from a supposedly fatal wound.  The other claims to know about the monoliths and how to use one to transport them to the "mother" in the palace and... ends up teleporting them to another world instead.  Have a feeling I know which mage is the brains of this operation here.

Oh, and we also get to follow a somewhat psychotic dwarf on a revenge quest that is clearly a set up for her to be the seventh member of their team by the end of all of this.

More low rent Game of Thrones stuff at the palace, with the princess finding out that the main commander guy is having an affair with some low born merchant (I think?) and is clearly going to use this for political gain.  Yawn!

Balor is already at the "sacrifice kids" stage of his bad guy plan.  Lovely.

At least this episode went by quicker than the last one.  And, again, I'm already halfway done with this series, so I might as well finish it.

This is not a good show. Eredin is growing on me though. I feel sorry for the actors, they are way better than the script of this show.
