In order to cure Nightcrawler from his monstrous mutation, Legion and his team prepare for a ritual with Mother Righteous for exorcism. When Doctor Nemesis criticizes Mother Righteous for using magic over science, he gets killed for it. As Doctor Nemesis revives in Arbor Magna, Pixie informs the team that he is back to normal which means that they may have a chance in curing Nightcrawler. However, Legion still doubts over his friend's state and he asks Mother Righteous to give the Soulsword back but she refuses. Mother Righteous shows her true nature when she drains Legion and taunts him with knowledge of what happens after his ascension. Then, Legion's teammates - Pixie, Banshee and Lost to fight back with the help of the telepathic Blindfold. This allows the monstrous Nightcrawler to slowly wake up and slice a few magic tendrils off from Mother Righteous. As she starts yelling and burning the mutants to crisp, Nightcrawler stops Mother Righteous with a blade on her throat. When Mother Righteous finds that Legion had disappeared, she screams again in a hissy fit and burns Nightcrawler too.
Some time later, the mutants - Banshee, Lost, Pixie and Nightcrawler were eventually resurrected by The Five in Arbor Magna of Krakoa. Even though he is back to normal, Nightcrawler learns from Xavier that Legion is missing. Also Nightcrawler gets a bad news from Emma Frost and Cyclops that Orchis took advantage of his feral form and they used him as a weapon to kill the human politicians so that they could manipulate the public with anti-mutant propaganda. Thus, Nightcrawler decides to leave Krakoa as a way of figuring out how he could fix public relations.

This is a post in which I summarise books read, reviewed and currently on my TBR shelf. In addition to a variety of literary titbits, I look ahead to forthcoming features, see what’s on the nightstand and keep readers…
It’s been a while since I made a Merthur vid and I always love showing their devotion to each other so that’s what this video is about. Hope you enjoy it!
In order to save Nightcrawler, Pixie, Jackie Chopra and Doctor Nemesis who had been held captive by Orchis; the mutants - Legion, Blindfold and Banshee seek help with Mother Righteous even though Legion doesn't trust her. Then, Legion and Mother Righteous set off to Orchis space station where Legion breaks the captives out while Mother Righteous holds Nimrod off by using her magic and talking down to him. The rescue mission goes well for Legion until he encounters Margali who beheads him with a sword before throwing Legion, Doctor Nemesis, Pixie and Jackie Chopra out of the airlock. Margali tries to take back Nightcrawler until Mother Righteous appears and sucks the magic/soul out of Margali. After a brief fight, Mother Righteous brings Legion and the mutants back from the orbit.
