Dyluck is finally found deep within the Mana Fortress under Thanatos' spell yet again. The evil sorcerer reveals that his own body has reached its limit and needs another worthy vessel to house his spirit. As he couldn't take a normal human because his earthly envelope would tear apart, he went on a search for a human born in the shadow of darkness every few decades. It happens that Dyluck's body is one of them and is capable of augmenting his powers beyond comprehension. While the young soldier's powers were sealed as a child, he is no more than a puppet to Thanatos now and will be housing his evil soul and using the Mana Fortress to rule the world. The magic knight is suddently growing weaker by the minute and must now inhabit his new vessel before collapsing. Primm then lunges towards Dyluck as a way to prevent his possession going further attacking the evildoer in the process. The latter's body vanishes almost instantly but unfortunately, Thanatos's soul has become one with the major's body. Gloating about his newfound vessel, the possessed Dyluck tries to further his modus operandi, but suddently finds himself unable to do anything. An otherworldly but familiar voice resonates across the room, telling Primm to listen to it as it is Dyluck's spirit. His echo says that he cannot speak for too long since Thanatos's energy is too strong, but he knows a way to defeat the sorcerer. He reveals to the party that Thanatos was once an ancient sorcerer who sold his soul to [[Maviola]] in exchange for eternal life. While his spirit became eternal, his body slowly decayed and he must periodically find a new suitable host to possess. With each new body, his spirit grows ever darker as it feeds on hatred and destruction. Dyluck's spirit then apologizes to Primm, as he cannot join her in the mortal realm anymore and entrust Randi to take care of her. As he finishes his speech, Dyluck uses his last bit of strength to destroy his body, leaving Thanatos without a host and revealing his true [[Dark Lich|face]]. Desperate to find an new host, the dark entity heads for the heroes in vain as he is eventually defeated. | Dyluck is finally found deep within the Mana Fortress under Thanatos' spell yet again.

Thanatos is shown mutliple time to possess immense magical powers related to mind control, telekinesis and life leeching. He orchestrated the soul sucking experiment in Pandora as means of gaining more power and weakening the kingdom without direct intervention. He manipulated Elinee into sending him more life energy by telling her she would keep her magic as a bargaining chip. He did the same procedure in Northtown and tried consuming Primm's soul while preventing Randi and Popoi from moving momentarily. He used ancient magic to revive Geshtar's body to stall the heroes from stopping him activating the Mana Fortress. Finally, he is well versed in elemental magic and can also inflict multiple status aliments during his boss fight. | Thanatos is shown mutliple time to possess immense magical powers related to mind control, telekinesis and life leeching.
