Episode 17; The Rumored Girl Is Zelgadis?: While following a rumor of the whereabouts of a Claire Bible, the group end up at a town populated only by females. Sounds great... until they learn any male found there will be killed on sight. While Gourry, Xellos and Zelgadis are putting on their costumes, a girl runs into them. She is being chased by a monster and asks for help. Zelgadis quickly dispatches the monster and brings back the girl. It turns out she is running away because she does not want to take the purifying ritual becoming a priestess. They leave her alone and look around the town for the Claire Bible. While having lunch, they get attacked by an ice monster called Evia. During the fight, they get redirected to the lake where Princess Miwan is taking the test. Zelgadis and Gourry get imprisoned in the ice but Zel has had enough - he breaks out and destroys the startled Evia who thought he was a she. The Queen has grabbed Lina and threatens to do away with her for masquerading as females. Miwan throws off her clothes and says he will not pretend to be female anymore. All the other girls remove their female clothes so they do not have to pretend anymore. Episode 18; Temple Of Sand! The Secret Of The Giga Slave!: While eating, Xellos explains there is a temple on the mountain that may have another Claire Bible manuscript. While Lina is having another fit for not telling them sooner, Martina shows up to save her beloved. Later, they head up to the small temple. Upon entering it, they find themselves in massive desert. For miles and miles passed the horizon, there are rows of large monuments. Suddenly, a little old lady appears who introduces herself as Auntie Aqua. She is the keeper of the temple and explains the page they want is several day's journey. They leave to load up on supplies and come back. During the first night, Amelia has a nightmare and wakes up Lina. Unable to sleep, she talks to Gourry but gets wakened but Auntie Aqua. She asks Lina to follow her to the lake and tells her to peer in. Lina sees herself and the group; she is about to cast the Giga Slave spell but she loses control and destroys the world. Auntie Aqua explains this is a possible future. Suddenly, Zeigram appears and attacks them. A new opponent appears on the rift above them... Chaos Dragon Gaav. |
