Synopsis for "A Lonely Place of Dying"
As Warstrike lays dying in a sewer, an alarm sounds in his cave laboratory alerting Giz that his heart has stopped. Warstrike dreams he is walking through a void when his daughter Jamie and Mitsy Kline find him and lead him to his trial. A scantily-clad woman he mistakes for Mantra—actually Necromantra—tells him this is where he will die and blasts him. He punches her in retaliation, but then she restrains him with a ring of energy and forces him to sit down. A hooded judge demands order and tells Necromantra to call her first witness, Giz. Appearing as a flattened image, Giz testifies that Warstrike knows little about him and prevents him from growing as a person. Next, Necromantra calls Jamie who recalls the day some of Warstrike’s enemies attacked the Tark family in a park. Jamie’s mother Pilar replaces Jamie on the stand and recounts how the attackers’ gunshots killed Jamie and injured Warstrike’s father Joshua. Afterward, Pilar learned her husband was Warstrike and left him. Enraged, he breaks free and attacks Necromantra, but she downs him with an energy blast. Then, she calls Joshua to the stand, describes how his injuries left him in a catatonic state, and says it is Warstrike who should be in that condition. Before the judge passes sentence, Warstrike asks Joshua for forgiveness, and Joshua gives it. Warstrike declares he is taking Joshua and leaving, but the judge reveals himself to be a duplicate Warstrike and attacks. As they fight and tear the courtroom apart, the duplicate insists Warstrike is to blame for what happened to his family. Fed up, Warstrike impales his duplicate on a shard of debris and carries his father outside as the courtroom collapses. After his heart starts beating again, he wakes up and crawls out of the sewers just in time for Giz to find him. Giz helps Warstrike walk away, and Warstrike says everything is going to be alright.
