The Spectral Knights are afraid of being rapidly aged by the power of Darkstorm's Staff and, when Merklynn refuses to help them, set off on a quest to find a magic spring whose waters have rejuvenating properties. During the quest, Leoric falls victim to Darkstorm's Staff and, to ensure he cannot be restored to his true age, the Darkling Lords destroy the spring. But the experience teaches Leoric (who is restored to normal by the end of the episode) that there is more to old age than being weak and feeble.
