Synopsis for "Beast World: Royal Blood, Part 1"
Koriand'r recalls the day her home planet, Tamaran, was invaded by the Dominators. The trauma of losing her parents, killed by the invaders, still haunts her. She remembers standing alongside the protector Xand'r and her sister Komand'r, witnessing the devastation. She also recalls the horror of her enslavement and the strength it took to lead a revolt that ultimately freed herself and her people.
In the present, Koriand'r once again faces Black Adam. The Titans Tower is shielded by a protective barrier, with Nightwing and Oracle directing the defenses from within. Nightwing worries about Damian, but Barbara reminds him that he has an entire world to protect instead. Meanwhile, Bobo and Dr. Clancy continue their search for a cure for the infected, using Batman, who is being held in a cage, as a key to their research.
At that moment, Tempest returns to the tower and opens it from the outside, allowing Brother Eternity and the Beast-People to infiltrate. Brother Eternity is after the Necrostar. An alarm sounds throughout the tower. Bobo quickly leads Clancy and her children to a safe room. Flash and Impulse are still in Kahndaq, rescuing civilians. Donna is holding Garro to prevent him from releasing more spores, while Raven is busy exterminating those already airborne. Cyborg, reporting from Australia, assures the team that he's almost done with his mission. Starfire steps back, allowing Captain Marvel and Mary Marvel to take over.
Inside the tower, Nightwing and Batgirl/Oracle engage the Beast-People that have breached their defenses. Nightwing devises a plan to counter Garth/Tempest. Meanwhile, Brother Eternity reaches Batman's cage and sends Garth to eliminate the Titans. Garth attacks Batgirl and Nightwing, flooding the floor they’re on. In the chaos, Nightwing is infected by one of Garro's spores. Despite the dire situation, Nightwing urges Batgirl to stick to the plan.
As the battle intensifies, Starfire arrives at the tower and confronts Brother Eternity, who reveals himself to be Xand'r, the former royal guard of her family. He coldly tells her that he should have killed her rather than enslaving her. Xand'r demands the return of his god and prepares to face Starfire in a final showdown.
