After He-Man puts an end to their latest plot, Skeletor and Beast Man plan to get rid of him once and for all; with use of invisible helmets they sneak into the Royal Palace and kidnap Prince Adam, to use as bait to lure He-Man out into a trap. Unfortunately, one of Orko's magic spells has gone wrong, teleporting the Sword Of Power away into Eternia's distant past, leaving Adam unable to transform into He-Man. While the Sorceress sends Orko and Cringer back in time to try and retrieve the sword, she has a special assignment for Man-At-Arms to trick Skeletor into believing that He-Man is about when he is not...
Episode 14: Dawn of Dragoon

On hearing the threat to his world, where he is a great magician, Orko promptly returns with Dree Elle in the pyramid. Knowing that their friend will need some help, He-Man and Battle Cat get The Sorceress to open a portal to send them to Trolla to help their friend, and find themselves in Orko's bizarre, back-to-front world, where they must put an end to Dragoon's reign of terror before sundown, or the portal back to Eternia will close...

Meanwhile, an evil sorcerer called Jarvan, who was previously defeated by He-Man and Man-At-Arms, has escaped from the prison mines and has set his sights on the Transmutator. Preying on Ileena's depression, he disguises himself as a kindly old woman and gives Ileena a 'magic potion' that will boost her confidence and strength. But the potion contains a dangerous drug, and Ileena soon finds herself addicted to the drug, and almost causes several serious accidents while under its effects.

But their task proves far from easy- for not only is Granamyr suspicious of humans and reluctant to help them, but he says he will only give them the spell if they cut down the living tree named Skytree. Will He-Man willingly take a life if it is the only way to save that of his friend?

When King Randor's beautiful but snobbish and stuck-up niece Lady Edwina comes to stay at the Palace, Orko is attracted to her and tries unsuccessfully to impress her. He thinks back to a magical medallion that he once had when he arrived on Eternia years before in a freak storm, when he saved a young Prince Adam and Cringer from the Tar Swamp, losing the medallion in the process. He heads off to the swamps to try and find the lost charm to impress Edwina, but unfortunately he is there at exactly the same time as Skeletor, who, with Evil Lyn and Beast Man, has come up with a magical potion to resurrect ancient beasts from the swamp to use in an attack on the Royal Palace...
Episode 19: The Shaping Staff
While entertaining the Royal Family with his magic, Orko finds his act interrupted by a strange sorceress called Majestra. Majestra performs a trick in which she appears to make the King vanish then reappear- but in fact, Majestra is really Evil-Lyn in disguise, and has teleported the King to the dungeon and replaced him with a disguised Beast Man!
Evil-Lyn has found a magical Shaping Staff which can transform anything into whatever the holder wishes- and under their disguises, Evil-Lyn and Beast Man set about causing havoc around the palace, turning each member of the Royal Family into helpless animals, while Skeletor awaits them at Grayskull with his latest creation- an evil version of He-Man, called Faker!
