While tracking down the witch, Kaulder finds traces of old dark magic, not seen since before he killed the Queen. Kaulder and the 37th Dolan deduce that 36 was murdered by a witch.

The former apparently dies in his sleep that night. The 36th Dolan tells Kaulder that he is retiring from his duties and has chosen a new Dolan for him. He is aided by a priest called 'Dolan', a tradition carried from the first priest who fought in the battle to destroy the Witch Queen. Kaulder is revealed to be working as a witch hunter for the Order of the Axe and Cross, an organization which aims to keep the truce between humans and witches (allowing witches to live freely providing they do not use magic on humans) and either executes or imprisons the witches who break the law.

Before dying, the Witch Queen cursed Kaulder with eternal life. A band of knights, including a widowed Kaulder, whose family had died in the plague, storm her lair and in the ensuing battle, Kaulder manages to defeat her.
