In the distant future, Earth is divided into “good” and “bad” areas, the result of a nuclear firestorm set ten million years earlier by five terrorists. When sunlight finally shined through the radioactive clouds, only a few humans survived. The rest morphed into mutants, who inhabited the bad areas of the planet. In the good land of Montagar, fairies, elves, and dwarves, humanity’s true ancestors, returned and prospered. Delia, Queen of the Fairies, presided over a feast celebrating 3,000 years of peace, but dark clouds appeared in every direction, and Delia fell into a trance, giving birth to twin wizards. Avatar, a good wizard, spent his childhood entertaining his ailing mother, while his brother, Blackwolf, a mutant wizard, tortured small animals and never visited. Many years later, Delia died and Blackwolf coveted her throne. In an epic battle, Avatar defeated Blackwolf, who vowed to return one day and exact his revenge. Three-thousand years later, Blackwolf is the führer of Scortch, located in the dark lands, and he informs his minions that it is time for his return to Montagar. He dispatches a team of assassins to precede him and to kill those who believe in love and magic. Meanwhile, the President of Montagar, his daughter, Elinor, the Fairy Goddess of the New World, and her tutor, the wizard Avatar, plan their defense against Blackwolf’s encroaching armies. A robot, Necron Ninety-nine, assassinates the President and then is vanquished by Avatar. Although science and technology were banned millions of years earlier, Blackwolf has discovered some ancient technology, which he uses to grow his war machine. However, he is frustrated when his forces lack the inspiration to defeat the citizens of Montagar. Blackwolf uses an old motion picture projector to show Nazi propaganda films in order to motivate his apathetic troops. Meanwhile, in Montagar, Avatar learns of Blackwolf’s “dream machine” from Necron Ninety-nine, whom he has reprogrammed and renamed “Peace.” Avatar tells Elinore and Weehawk that the “Dream machine” must be destroyed. At his castle, Blackwolf fathers a son with his blue queen, and plans to rule the world. Avatar, Elinore, and Weehawk, led by Peace, set out for Scortch and enter an enchanted forest ruled by fairies. When Blackwolf’s assassins attack, a fairy leader named Sean is killed, the robot Peace disappears, and the fairies take Elinore hostage to the Fairy Sanctuary. Weehawk falls into a chasm, where he finds Peace, and Avatar locates the sanctuary. As Avatar explains to the fairy king that Blackwolf is responsible for Sean’s death, an assassin’s arrow wounds the wizard. The fairy king decrees that the fairies will release Elinore and will neither help nor hinder their quest to reach Scortch. Resuming their journey, Avatar and Elinore travel through a snow-covered landscape, where they are reunited with Weehawk and Peace. The group passes through villages devoid of males, who have left to join Blackwolf’s army. Upon reaching the desert, Avatar encounters an old friend, a dwarf general named Abdul, who is planning to attack Blackwolf using weapons seized from Blackwolf’s troops. Avatar decries Abdul’s plans and advocates for non-violence. Peace saves Avatar from another assassin, but Elinore inexplicably slays the robot and jumps into one of Blackwolf’s tanks. Thinking she is a traitor, Avatar is heartbroken, but Weehawk convinces him that they must continue their mission. Weehawk and Avatar travel with Abdul by boat to Scortch. Abdul’s army attacks Scortch and a bloody battle ensues as Avatar and Weehawk slip into Blackwolf’s castle. As Avatar confronts his brother, Weehawk locates Elinore. She explains that Blackwolf has been controlling her actions. Avatar announces he will demonstrate a magic trick his mother taught him during his childhood when Blackwolf was not around. Instead, he pulls a gun from his cloak and kills Blackwolf. The castle crumbles, the projector is destroyed, and the war ends. Elinore declares Weehawk the new King of Montagar and she and Avatar plan to marry and start a new kingdom.
