Dark Deceptions

Hunter agrees to give Mantid his Oracle Keys so long as the Invectids never attack Arachna again. Quake arrives and reveals Mantid's dark secret to Hunter.

Full Recap
Moved by the plight of the Invectids, Hunter and Shadow are ready to hand the Oracle Keys over to Mantid and end the war. The sudden appearance of the hero Quake changes everything when the old man reveals the truth: Mantid's lust for power is the reason the Invectid's have been robbed of there sunlight. And the Invectid ruler is willing to destroy all of Arachna to gain the rest of Oracle's power. Hunter and Quake escape Mantid's citadel but are pursued by Buguese's Buzzrays.

When Hunter realizes he must make a stand but no longer has the heart to fight the Invectids, Quake sees he's finally learning to be a true hero and demonstrates his mighty Sword of Surrender; the ability to defeat the enemy by taking away their fighting spirit. Hunter reunites with his fellow Spider Riders at the mouth of the labyrinth.
