The Game

 

This second episode sees all the heroes exploring under the ground in search of the Mauve Orb, a magical gem that lets people speak with dragons. They must confront the Krobs, a race of giant spider-like insects led by Queen Alkiram, and the Gharvs, huge blind reptiles that swarm in the underground rivers.
