The five elements themselves had something in store for the girls. Their abilities were growing stronger and stronger - even the triumvirate in Kandrakar doesn't have full understanding of it. At the same time, Cedric was stripped of his magic power and got a second chance from the Oracle. He returned to Ye Olde Bookshop to live a decent life, under supervision of the Guardians. Nevertheless, he searched for a useful resource to get back his powers. He found his hope in the Book of Elements, written by Jonathan Ludmoore, a Merdianite alchemist and one of Prince Phobos' hundreds of devoted servants, in addition to Lord Cedric. Thanks to Mr. Collins, the Guardians got to know about the ancient magical book as well. But when Matt Olsen became trapped within its pages, the Guardians were forced to work with their old foe in order to open it.
