Synopsis for "Warworld Revolution, Part Four"

In his worm form, Byla attacks Superman and his companions. He grabs Kryl-Ux in his maw and drags him away. Superman saves Kryl-Ux, despite the latter telling him he should leave him to die. Kryl-Ux is severely injured, including losing an eye, so Superman tells the children to bandage his wounds and goes on alone. As Byla destroyed the bridge leading to the heart of the Necropolis, Superman reaches it by leaping across floating rocks, avoiding Byla as he goes.

At the temple at the centre of the Necropolis, Superman meets the Fire of Olgrun, which takes the form of a small child. The child leads Superman into the temple while asking him a series of riddles. They reach a room with five doors and the Fire transforms into a koltari, a traditional Kryptonian child's toy. Superman answers the riddles and solves the koltari, and a door to a great chamber appears. Inside, Superman finds a giant figure who claims to be a "shade" of Olgrun, set to prevent anyone from taking the Fire. Superman defeats the shade, which then attempts to destroy the Fire to prevent Superman taking it, but Superman throws himself in front of the Fire to protect it. The shade stops short of crushing him and is revealed to be a construct until the Fire's control. By being willing to sacrifice himself to save the Fire, who is not even technically alive, Superman has proven himself worthy. The Fire transforms into a sword for Superman, and tells him he now possesses the power of a god.

Superman carries the Fire out of the Necropolis, but when he reaches the gate he entered in through he finds Mongul and Kryl-Ux holding Osul and Otho-Ra prisoner. They tell him to surrender the Fire or they will kill the children.
