Synopsis:	An unseen witch has killed the members of Kurtıs old circus, their
sacrifice recharging her waning mystic powers. 
	Belasco visits Kurt on Muir Island, pretending at first to be his acrobat
teacher Sabu. He offers an exchange: control of the Winding Way for Margali,
Kurtıs adoptive mother, whom he now has in a cage. He says her daughter Amanda,
who was Kurtıs girlfriend, is the one who massacred the circus, and tells him to
go home to learn more.
	Kurt doesnıt know if he can trust any of these dark magicians, and doesnıt
want to involve the rest of his team, Excalibur.
	Belasco gloats in Limbo: he has Magikıs Soulsword and is taking charge. What
he doesnıt know is that Margali has switched bodies with her daughter. But the
Limbo version of Nightcrawler does, and he blackmails Amanda into helping him
steal the sword.
	Kurt finds ³Amanda² in the circus; she is oddly cold, and makes Kurt swear a
blood oath to help her rescue ³Margali.² She ports them to Limbo; Sıym confronts
them, reveals her true form, and captures her.
	Kurt ports into Belascoıs stronghold to save Amanda; his Doppelganger gives
him a sword, thus betraying his master, who disintegrates him with a wave of the
Soulsword.
	Amanda and Kurt fight Belasco, with sword and sorcery. He asks Kurt how he
can help Margali, who killed his friends. Amanda knocks the Soulsword away.
Margali arrives, having defeated Sıym, and sucks up all of Belascoıs power, then
closes him up in a pit. She switches bodies back with Amanda, who restores the
circus people, whom Margali only pretended to kill.
	Amanda is mistress of Limbo now, and stays to guard the Winding Way. An
armored hand emerges from the ground in Limbo, holding the Soulsword aloft.

Toupee and claims Helen, who barely knows him.

building. Now Melvin is worried: the demons are coming, and they will want to eat
someone. But Guido dons the Hell Toupee and orders them back, so they leave.

of the night by tossing a dead rat on her bed. Kitty, who sleeps in a Dazzler
