Synopsis

Former steamlord Arthur sneaks into floating Lockheart Castle to make time with the beautiful Princess Kiri. Drach Domo discovers them and tries to makes it look like Arthur has hurt her but Arthur teleports her away. The king commands Domo to kill Arthur and recover his daughter. Meanwhile, Bryce's father sends him to the big city to sell their last breeding animal so they can pay money that they owe to Domo. Instead, Domo's soldiers rip him off and blow up the family homestead. Arthur arrives and offers Bryce an opportunity for revenge.
