"I have a lot of questions about this," Wanda muttered to herself. She further raised a puzzling question: "If Gerthzerian seems so dangerous, then why has she not made any contact with Zalem, either as an enemy or an ally?"

Rose Lai replied, "Like many in Datomir, Zalem fears Gethzeran." She added, "If she succeeds in gaining access to the Star Chamber and uses her newfound power, she will not hesitate to kill Gethzeran."

The three clan leaders nodded in agreement.

"Where the hell was she before all of this happened?"

Kamina replied, "She was trapped in an ancient valley discovered by the witches of Datomi. We theorize that her freedom came from your battle with Zalem, and that Gerthzerian felt the energy released and was freed."

After Wanda silently digested this information in her mind, she raised a new question: "Does she have followers in Datomir or beyond?"

"It would be no surprise if she didn't," Ogwen said, shaking his head. "Evil always attracts those who are foolish or twisted to follow it."

"Just like my mother's former followers," Ross muttered darkly.

Wanda sighed and rubbed the sides of her head. "It's always like this, one evil lunatic is let loose to wreak havoc, and then another takes his place."

"Last time you faced an enemy with almost no allies." Ogwen said, walking up to Wanda with a determined look. "This time, my tribe will help you, and Ross will try to help you."

While this united front sounded wonderful, Wanda reminded her, “Nothing is perfect.” So she inquired further, “What do the other clans think about this?” She knew that even though they all claimed to be witches of Datomir, divisions between the clans still existed.

Ross Lai nodded and said, "We should first understand the current views of other clans on this issue. Some people may be influenced by Gerszerian like my mother. Therefore, we must act cautiously and understand the positions and attitudes of all parties. In the face of hesitation and neutrality in action, we can no longer rely solely on everyone's self-consciousness."

"Of course." Astrinor agreed completely, "But at least our four tribes can work together. Unity is better than division."

"I will inform Talzin of the current situation in detail. She will give you a positive response to bring all of you closer together." Then, Wanda's eyes were cast like swords at Ogwen, who was the most experienced of all the witches.

"But I have to ask, why do you have to do this?"

Ogwen spoke slowly and firmly, "We must never give in to evil, and we must never let it take root." She emphasized, "This is the oldest and most sacred law of our tribe. We can even say it is the foundation of our tribe. Once we compromise with evil, even if it is a trivial step, it will help it grow stronger."

"Gethzeran is an evil that should have been eradicated once and for all, but in our complacency, it has returned. If we don't act now, it will grow even more powerful. Now is our time to save the planet and make amends for our inaction on Zalem."

Wanda stared into the old chief's eyes and saw sincerity in them, and after a moment, a smile appeared on her face.

“So, how do we get started?” she asked.

As Wanda, Rose, and the Nightsister clan unite to fight the darkness of Gth'Zerion, the dark side secretly plots its next move.

In Talzin's territory, Ventres successfully returned to the clan and obtained the "replacement" that Dooku needed - a barbarian named Savage Opress.

This person has passed her three tests and even sacrificed himself to protect his brother, which makes people wonder: How can a person with the dark side be so selfless? This trait will play an important role in the future battle. As an important weapon for her and Dooku to fight against Sidious.

Although a replacement was found, it still leaves much to be desired. He is undoubtedly skilled in combat, both in hand-to-hand combat and with weapons, but beyond that, his abilities seem to be limited to that.

Ventres could barely sense any connection to the Force from him, which was perhaps understandable, since his potential in the Force had not been fully developed in his youth, and even less so now that he was an adult.

This situation was quickly exploited by Mother Talzin, who transformed Savage Opress into a "replacement" for an unforeseen future. She modified the spell to adapt Opress to this transformation.

When they returned, Madam Talzin greeted them warmly.

"Who is this, Asajj?"

Ventres replied: "This is a barbarian who has given me his life."

Mother Talzin then placed her hands on the Zabrak male's chest and conducted a thorough examination. She exclaimed, "This man is extremely powerful... He is a perfect male specimen."

At this moment, when her eyes fell on Savage Opress and she saw him sneering at her, she sneered back.

"A great gift from the galaxy, Mother Talzin. He will serve us well."

After hearing this, Madam Talzin quickly reached out and gently patted Opreth's forehead, causing him to fall into a coma immediately. Afterwards, Opreth was placed on a solemn altar, and some tribesmen began to chant a chilling spell:

The strength given by God can be as hard as stone, the life given by God can trigger war like lightning, the fire given by God can burn blood and arouse anger, and the steel given by God will be loyal to Asajj and Dooku!"

As this was going on, a green mist began to twist around Opress and a series of strange things began to happen. As he began to float into the air, this green mist began to glow brightly.

The spell continued to repeat: Land-Lightning-Rage-Allegiance, Land-Lightning-Rage-Allegiance... Allegiance to Asajj, Dooku!

In the fiery mist, Opres was undergoing earth-shaking changes, as if driven by a mysterious force. Finally, he completed his transformation and became a huge and clumsy monster. His body grew a lot, his muscle lines became more obvious, and the horns on his head became longer and sharper, as if they could pierce the sky.

Though his connection to the Force had once been tenuous, it now seemed to be strengthened by a powerful force, foreshadowing the responsibility he was about to shoulder.

Talzin looked around and his eyes fell on Opress, his eyes gleaming with admiration. "Sisters, he is ready."

Ventres gazed upon their creation when Talzin tapped Opreth's forehead to wake him. She noticed that his eyes had turned a bright yellow, revealing his deep connection to the dark side of the Force.

Suddenly, Opress's hand shot out and tightly grasped Ventres' neck, making it impossible for her to breathe.

"Let me go!" she cried out, struggling.

"Calm down!" Talzin's voice was calm and firm.

Opress followed her instructions and released Ventres.

She began to cough and gasp violently, massaging her painful throat with her hands.

"Well," Talzin continued, "it seems like the time has come to introduce him to Dooku. What do you think?"

Ventres rubbed his throat and said, "Of course, we are pressed for time."
