Read MoreThe Search
Zodac comes to Grayskull and tells The Sorceress that Eternia is in great danger as Skeletor is searching for the Starseed, the single most powerful object in the universe- a small chunk of cosmic matter left over from the big bang, which can turn its holder's thoughts into reality. The Sorceress summons He-Man, and together with Battle Cat and Orko, he sets off on a race to reach the Starseed before Skeletor does. But given that the Starseed is able to give anyone all the power that they want, is even He-Man strong enough to resist being corrupted by its power?

In the village of Chander, Trap Jaw and Beast Man break into the Shrine of the Gryphon to steal the Gryphon jewel, and place it in the grounds of the Royal Palace. Myth says that 200 years ago, the Gryphon – a giant fire-breathing dragon with a lion's head – entrusted the people of Chander to guard the jewel, and will return to cause destruction if anything happens to it. The evil duo plan for the Gryphon to attack the Royal Palace, but a young paige called Thad, who is upset that no-one ever seems to notice him, discovers the hidden gem. Feeling that it makes him someone important, he refuses to part with it, and soon, the Gryphon is wrecking destruction in search of the missing jewel...
Read MoreGolden Disks of Knowledge
The Sorceress summons He-Man to Castle Grayskull, which appears to be being haunted, the jaw bridge smashing repeatedly against the edge of the abyss, and the eyes flashing! Inside it is even weirder, full of grotesque holographic images of demons! The Sorceress has no idea what is going on, and Orko suggests that someone from the spirit dimension may be trying to contact The Sorceress. Using the window of the ancients, The Sorceress manages to trace the source of the haunting- the spirit of a magician called Zanthor, who was formerly a member of the Council of the Wise, but was exiled into the spirit world when he sold the Golden Disks of Knowledge to Skeletor, giving him the knowledge he needed to enter Eternia and build Snake Mountain. Zanthor wishes to amend for his crime by helping He-Man get the Disks back.
So The Sorceress summons Zodac- the only remaining member of the Council of the Wise- and Zodac grants Zanthor temporary entrance into Eternia, though he must remain in spirit form until he can prove he is sincere. Zanthor then accompanies He-Man, Battle Cat and Orko to Snake Mountain, to find where Skeletor is keeping the Golden Disks of Knowledge.
