Fleeing the destruction of Krypton, Jor-El and Lara crash-land on Earth and are confronted by a group of archers who arrive to investigate from a nearby castle. Jor-El destroys them with his heat vision just as his son, Kal-El, is born. In the nearby Kingdom of Storms, a local peasant boy named Constantine has a vision of demons who will conquer the world while the young King Jefferson listens and orders the prophecy recorded. Nineteen years later, Bruce, a knight of the Kingdom of El, his manservant and companion Alfred, and the warriors Richard, Duke, Jason and Stephanie go on a quest to capture a banshee. Prince Kal-El asks to join them but is forbidden, due to his family's vulnerability to magic. The party locate the banshee and Bruce accuses her of being an assassin sent by King Jefferson, based on knowledge he has gained from his spy in Jefferson's court. The banshee denies this and attacks, with her scream destroying the building they are in but leaving Bruce largely unharmed. She is then apprehended by Bruce with aid from Kal-El and is taken back to the castle, where she is imprisoned in the dungeon along with other magical beings.
