With the battle for medieval Manhattan turning dire and despite her better judgment, Heather turns into her bestial form but finds herself in the form of the Great Beast known as Tanaraq rather than her usual form of Sasquatch. Tanaraq cuts through the opposition until only Gath is left standing and the monster fulfills the mission given by the Tallus by returning him to his throne--forcefully. With all opposition gone, the Exiles give Selene the necklace of power and she uses it to return Manhattan to its modern state.
