The trio managed to teleport inside the Doom Dragon's stomach, which brought Ravendark back to his human self. ![]() He then agreed to help Max and Virgil put the dragon back to sleep out of revenge. Ravendark refused to believe Max until he left the Doom Dragon's body, which made him revert back to a bird. While Norman battled the dragon, Max tried to reason with Ravendark, telling him that his master was really Skullmaster and he was lying about his promise to break the curse. Max, Norman, and Virgil attempted to stop Ravendark from carrying out the spell, but failed, and the Doom Dragon woke from his slumber.
