Episode Title:
Doubt: For Love of Reason
Episode Description:
Gaff is chosen as the new king, and he receives a message from the god telling him to find the Key of Journeys in the Black Hour and Black Direction and destroy it. Belle is imprisoned and mournfully holds on to Runding's hilt. Adonis visits and threatens to destroy it, but she repels him, so he leaves her a vial of healing ashes. Adonis joins Gaff's court and Sherry asks why he attacked Belle, but he just laughs. Sherry then confides in him that she suspects their god is not benevolent. Bennett and Guinness were imprisoned too, then Guinness finds the old king has possessed him, making his eye and mouth appear on his palms and saying the old system must be destroyed. Sian appears before Gaff and berates his arrogance, ambition, and blindly obeying the god. Kitty, seeking revenge and declaring his belief in Belle to fix the system, attacks Sian with a flaming phoenix. Adonis and Dram discuss the events. Belle pours the ashes on Runding, which makes her hear a voice from the sword telling her to restore it. Gaff, Sherry, Adonis, and their court move to lay King Lowhide to rest in the sacred tree.
