[edit] Summary
The first ever earthquake rocks Eternia as Skeletor and King Hiss cause Grayskull Tower, Central Tower, and Viper Tower to rise from beneath the ground. The three hold the secrets to ultimate power, Grayskull Tower representing all good, Viper all bad, and Central holding both. While both Skeletor and King Hiss plan how they will deceive each other, the heroes help those wounded in the quake. The Sorceress then notifies He-Man of the rise of the towers and explains the Ancients sunk them to keep them from being captured by King Hiss during his siege. Meanwhile, King Hiss hopes Skeletor will be caught in the trap at Central Tower's entry. But Skeletor is suspicious and lets Tung Lashor lead who gets caught clearing the way for Skeletor. King Hiss enters Viper Tower. He-Man arrives, captures Rattlor in Grayskull Tower's prison and heads to Central Tower. There, He-Man and Skeletor fight, both empowered by the ultimate power of the tower. He-Man prevails, and realizes the significance of these towers: they are now the ultimate battleground.
[edit] Notes
Grayskull Tower holds power to good, so Skeletor and King Hiss shouldn't be interested in it. However, they let Rattlor guarding it anyway.
