Alfonso tires of the mundane activities of managing the Kingdom and takes a wagon ride out of the city. The wagon is stopped by the bandit Gaspard Montes and his men who are based in an old castle in Lavietsla, formerly owned by Count Albert Juste. Arriving there, Alfonso finds Germán and is told the story of how Count Juste's wife Isabelle became a witch to keep her youthful beauty. Mauro believes that the castle is cursed after the Count killed his wife and himself. However Alfonso and Germán discover from Isabelle’s diaries that the Count and his rival Lord Roland were both Horrors. The two horrors reappear, and Alfonso and Germán join forces to destroy them.
