Samson; Mindor; Sharmaine; Merlyn
Nightfall in N'Yark brings a darkness that is total and absolute except for a few wisps of eerie, glowing radioactive mist, for in this city that was once as bright by night as it was by day, no electric light has burned for countless years...
The High Priest Merlyn the Magic Maker uses forgotten technology in N'Yark to convince his tribe to make him their leader. Mindor tries to counter Merlyn's magic with "magic" of his own provided by Mighty Samson.
