Wandering the halls of Arcane's castle, Swamp Thing falls through a broken flagstone. A monstrous hulking creature tries to pull him up, but loses his grip and the Swamp Thing falls to an underground river. Meanwhile, Lt. Cable who has tracked the Swamp Thing to this small Balkan village meets Abigail Arcane. Before long, Swamp Thing, Cable, Abigail and the castle creature all come face to face amidst a mob of angry villagers.
