Willa O'Neill

Xena journeys homeward determined to make amends for the sins of her past, but her efforts to begin a new life are challenged by the vengeful warlord Draco. Though she has lost her hunger for power and destruction, Xena cannot stand by when a group of warriors under the command of Hector, a vicious lieutenant of the cruel warlord Draco, threatens to slaughter the peasants of a small village. Xena single-handedly drives off the brutal attackers. Though the villagers are grateful, they are also fearful of her reputation and ask her to leave right away. All, that is, except a spirited young woman named Gabrielle who, bored with life in the village and the prospect of a loveless marriage, pleads with the warrior princess to take her along on her journey.

Gabrielle joins forces with the warrior, Meleager, to save her home village from the ruthless brigand, Damon. When Gabrielle and Xena are ambushed by a group of armed highwaymen, Gabrielle becomes paralyzed with fear and is almost killed before Xena can intervene. Thoroughly shaken by her failure to act, she decides to leave Xena and return home to try to sort out her feelings. On the way to Poteidaia, she learns that Damon, who demands periodic tribute, is headed for her village with his band of thieves and she races to warn the citizens. Upon her arrival, however, her younger sister, Lila gives her an oddly restrained welcome. Gabrielle soon discovers that the villagers have placed all their hopes for survival on Meleager the Mighty, a famous warrior they summoned for help, who unfortunately arrives in town drunk.

Xena (Lucy Lawless) finally finds Gabrielle (Renee O'Connor), and they reunite to battle the evil Hope (Renee O'Connor) and the Destroyer.

Xena and Gabrielle's (Lucy Lawless, Renee O'Connor) bitter conflict reaches its climax when both are transported to the dream world of Illusia to settle their mutual differences. With Ted Raimi and Hudson Leick.

Family and friends gather for Gabrielle's surprise birthday party only to become suspects in a murder investigation instead when a bounty hunter who is after Xena winds up dead. Discord, newly appointed as Goddess of Retribution, gives Xena until sunrise to find the killer or everyone she loves will be taken to the Underworld.
