Plot
Achren revealed to the Companions that Princess Eilonwy was under her spell. The enchantress demonstrated Eilonwy's power by torturing Gurgi, while Gwydion faced Achren defiantly as ever.
Rhun then rashly revealed that they knew she could not complete her plans, for the companions had hidden the enchanted items which Achren needed to fulfill her plan: the Book of Llyr and the Golden Pelydryn.
