Episode 25; Spirits Of The Dead! Lina's Final Decision!:
Lina, Sylphiel and Zangulus continue their journey into the temple
where they find Phibrizo sitting atop a giant crystal - filled with the
townspeople! Lina demands to know where Gourry is so Phibrizo brings
him out - encased in a crystal tomb. Meanwhile, Amelia, Zelgadis and
Martina are battling the ghosts. Zelgadis decides on a retreat and they
head into the sewers. Back again to Phibrizo where Zangulus attacks
him. Lina casts a Dragon Slave... and so does Sylphiel! Turns out she
decided to specialize in that one spell and at least she casts it well.
Phibrizo, not expecting a double Dragon Slave, is dissipated in the
blast. However, while they are wondering what to do, Phibrizo emerges
from the crystal. The rest of the group comes in just when Phibrizo
makes his final demand that Lina cast the Giga Slave. He summons up
several spheres and crushing them, each of the heroes falls dead. Lina
is the last one left so she casts the Giga Slave seeing no other
option. Suddenly, the sphere engulfs Lina and she is gone. Phibrizo is
delighted that he will see the end of the world. But then, Lina appears
again; however, she is glowing with a golden energy. Lina blasts
Phibrizo back and grabs him as he cowers from her power as she
announces, "I am the Lord of Nightmares."
Episode 26; Go To NEXT! And Then...:
For the first time, Phibrizo is scared. He babbles on and pleads with
her but Lina destroys him. The rest of the group awaken from their
slumber and see Lina. However, Xellos points out she is not Lina
anymore and will never come back to the world. Lina begins to fly away
among the destruction heading towards the sky but Gourry is determined
not to let her go. He leaps across the boulders trying to reach Lina.
He manages to reach her and grab his arm but Lina, being an empty
shell, just looks at him before she disappears. However, Gourry wakes
up to find himself in an embrace with Lina in some alternate realm.
They share a loving moment before they are transported back to the
real world. Meanwhile, the group mourns the death of Lina and Gourry.
Suddenly, Lina and Gourry fade back again and still in the embrace.
Thinking Gourry is taking advantage of her, she pretty much destroys
Gourry who knows nothing what is going on. Afterwards in an inn, Lina
explains she does not remember anything that happened. Suddenly,
Martina bursts in and there is going to be a wedding - between her
and Zangulus. During the wedding, Xellos appears and gives back
Gourry's sword of light. But in typical Lina fashion, she causes some
chaos at the wedding, and the entire fake castle falls down! They
decide to leave with the rest of the group running behind them.
