As the battle between the gods' servants and Bala's hordes rages in the slums of Sitapur, Bala breaks through to the secret labyrinth that holds the Source that will make him all-powerful. Meanwhile, finally working in harmony with her human host, Devi vanquishes the Darinde and her own doubts. Now she has the chance to finish Bala off once and for all â?? but before evil is destroyed, great sacrifices must be made.
