action

After discovering a shard of Loc-Nar (the evil green glowing orb of damnation from the first part), the miner Tyler is seized with an insatiable greed for power and immortality.

On his way to a planet with a fountain of immortality, Tyler stops in the FAKK² (Federation-Assigned Ketogenic Killzone, German: Official ketogenic death zone of the Federation) because its inhabitants have some immortality water in their bodies.

Tyler kidnaps some of them and kills the rest, but overlooks one: Julie. As the sole survivor of the attack, she furiously vows to avenge her family and kill Tyler. She takes up the pursuit of Tyler, who has since traveled on.

Julie manages, initially unnoticed, to couple her spaceship to Tylers. However, it is discovered and shot at, which has fatal consequences in high-speed flight and leads to the crash of both ships on the target planet.

On the planet Julie meets Zeek and Odin, a simple-minded speaking stone and his master. After an unsuccessful fight with Tyler and after she was able to free her sister from his ship, Julie and her companions reach the city that houses the fountain of immortality.

Only a small part of Tyler's crew survives, but he can fight for control of a local warrior tribe. With this new army he advances on the city. He fights his way to the entrance of the well and can open it with the shard of Loc-Nar . With Odin's help, however, Julie manages to kill Tyler before he can enter the well.

Thereupon Odin reveals himself to be a member of the people from whom the well was originally protected. The weakened Julie cannot prevent Odin from entering the well, but Zeek, who did not know the true identity of his master, removes the shard, whereupon the well gate closes and Odin is trapped.
