OUR REVIEW:
An epic tale that could be its own movie, this jam packed story featuring the return of Granamyr has everything a fan of "sword and sorcery" is looking for: Demon assassins, evil wizards, dragons, a sword wielding hero and a warrior's test. If you crave fantasy, this episode is a delight. (9/10)

Tomorrow’s Episode is: “Pawns of the Game Master”
Look at this pic and tell me He-Man isn’t a virgin. 😂
This episode starts off good enough but imma be real it loses me when they introduce Torm and Granamyr is like “yo can you pass this test for my son or something?".
I honestly think this would’ve been a better episode if it had a “be yourself" message. A plot like Torm turning himself into (taking the form of) He-Man to pass the test to impress Lyra but he soon finds out he’s not a good He-Man and Adam and Duncan are off to the side observing with a “We don’t think this a good idea but we’ll try to help" attitude.
4 stars. Great action, great vibe, only weakness is the premise – why is he-man allowed to stand in? They needed a different macguffin.
