The return of the fantasy-based sitcom set in Lower Earth.
The intrepid band of Questers, led by Elven Lord, Vidar, set off once again on their search for the Sword of Asnagar.
This is the only thing that can free them from the tyranny of the evil Lord Darkness.
Joining Vidar on the Quest is Dean, the dwarf, Penthiselea, an Amazon warrior princess, Sam, the human, and Amis, the Chosen One (formerly Sam's dog who took human form when he arrived in Lower Earth - he alone can wield the Sword of Asnagar that will defeat Lord Darkness).
In this opening episode, the Questers are saved from near certain death by a strong and charming loner, who goes by the name of Byorthnoth the Brave. But is Byorthnoth quite what he seems? And does it really matter when he has such lovely hair?
Meanwhile, Lord Darkness is back from the Void and has discovered that he's lost his immortality...
Written by Anil Gupta and Richard Pinto.
