The Questers are held by the ruthless barbarian, Ragnar Half-tooth. Stars Stephen Mangan and Daniel Rigby. From October 2011.

As they continue their search for the Sword of Asnagar, the noble Questers are lead to a quiet countryside town, which they’ve heard may hold their prize.

But it’s been razed to the ground by ruthless barbarians, led by blood-thirsty Ragnar Half-tooth, who’s taken the Sword taken as booty. In order to get it back, the Questers decide to masquerade as barbarians and enter Ragnar's camp...

Meanwhile, Kreech tells Lord Darkness that his annual regeneration is coming up and that he needs to get some sleep in order to avoid meeting the new Dawn which will send his body crumbling into dust.

Problem is, getting to sleep when it really matters is easier said than done. And Lord Darkness is suddenly overcome by a nasty bout of insomnia...
