With two of the talismans recovered and returned to the King, Tsalix and his friends face a challenge that will take them to the brink of death.  Mount Litso is completely surrounded by the Sea of Tabass, which has a whirlpool that travels across its surface.  Not only is the water formidable, but the mountain itself is guarded by giants who have pledged themselves to Abadon.

The successful completion of this task will bring them closer to the completion of the mission they were sent on by the King.  They will have delivered to him the three talismans that lead the way to the Scepter of Destiny.
