- Dar races to retrieve a rare fire lily from a valley inhabited by Amazons to save the life of a young woman, Maleena.
- The villainous Castrone steals away a woman named Hyppolyte from a tribe of fiercely-independent Amazon women. The Priestess of these Amazons, who has good cause for hating all men, vows to get her back. Meanwhile Dar and Tao rescue Hyppolyte but she's suffered a snakebite and will die unless treated with a specific flower growing deep in the forest. Leaving her with Tao, Dar finds the flower and in the process crosses paths with Maleena, an Amazon who doesn't share that hatred of all men. Together they return the now-cured Hyppolyte to the Priestess whose attitude toward men has now softened..—dinky-4 of Minneapolis

- While travelling through the Mydlands, Dar (Daniel Goddard) and Tao (Jackson Raine) find the young and beautiful Maleena (Gigi Edgley) staked to two poles. As they untie her, she tells them that Castrone (Brandon Burke), the leader of her village, forces women to marry men against their will, and those who defy his law are sentenced to death. Dar sees that Maleena has been bitten by a deadly three-fanged viper and realizes she will die within a day if she does not drink from the bud of the rare fire lily, which grows in the nearby valley inhabited by Amazons -- a place where no man has ever ventured and returned alive. Refusing to heed caution and let an innocent die, Dar sets out to find the lily and leaves Ruh to watch over Tao and Maleena. Meanwhile, Castrone discovers that Maleena has been saved and he and his men begin searching for her. The High Priestess of the Amazons (Angie Milliken), who managed to escape the wrath of Castrone, learns from the Shapeshifter (Moira Claux) that Maleena was rescued by Dar. Believing that all men are evil, the High Priestess vows to kill Dar and Castrone. But Hippolyte (Simone Kessell) feels that each man must be judged before being condemned, and after he saves her from being attacked by a white tiger, she thinks Dar might possibly help her tribe. Meanwhile, Tao continues to care for Maleena. Her fever worsens and she eventually becomes delirious. When Maleena thinks that Tao is her late love, he is overcome with emotion, for he has only experienced unrequited love.
Dar reaches the pond where the lily grows and gives the flower to the mighty eagle Sharak, who delivers it to Tao. As Maleena recovers, she tells Tao that she will never forget him. Meanwhile, Dar is attacked by Castrone, but Hippolyte joins the battle and she and Dar drive Castrone and his men back into the forest. A bond between Dar and the Amazons is formed.
