[[Image:tfr hubrid.gif|frame|left|Hubrid was roped into Xandra's plot without his knowledge.]] | |||
{{main|The Faeries' Ruin}} | |||
When questioned, [[Hanso]] accused Hubrid Nox of buying an artefact from him (which Hanso himself had stolen from Xandra) and using it to petrify the [[Faeries]]. The heroes - [[King Altador]], King [[Jazan]], [[Xandra]], [[Brynn]], [[Hanso]] and an [[Ogrin (The Faeries' Ruin)|Ogrin]] - travelled to the Haunted Woods to confront Nox about his involvement. While most of the heroes went in the front entrance of Nox's castle, Hanso slipped in through a window and confronted Nox first. | |||
Nox didn't seem to understand what artefact Hanso meant, but before he could be questioned further, Xandra fell over a trip wire and the castle's traps activated. Nox escaped down a secret passageway and out into the Woods. Too busy praising his own cunning to watch where he was going, Nox ran head-first into something: another Hubrid Nox. The real Nox | |||
After Faerieland fell, it was revealed that Xandra had cursed the Faeries, and had disguised herself as Nox to lay a false trail. She also confirmed that it was she who had "done away with Nox". In the chapter five plot comic and the dialogue for certain plot steps it was strongly suggested Nox had been killed - which was later confirmed in editorial #474. | |||
