When Hunter, Corona, Magma and their spiders regain consciousness, they find themselves deep in a forest. Aqune appears, ready to fight but her mask crumbles from her face, releasing her and Portia from their spell. After a joyous reunion between brother and sister spiders, Buguese attacks, determined to capture the Oracle Keys and Aqune. But a tear in reality opens, sucking the Spider Riders and their spiders away, one by one, and leaving Buguese behind to wonder what happened. The Spider Riders now find themselves in Paradise and are persuaded to give up fighting and enjoy their lives. Will Hunter actually throw away his manacle and leave the people of Nuuma at the mercy of the Invectids? And who is the strange old man who reveals himself to the Spider Riders once their decision is made?
