...Except that was a lie, and Macidus is actually one of Haggar's Druids (specifically the one that fought Keith all the way back in season one), using the signal to lure Marmoran agents to the planet. Macidus freezes the team save Keith, who is teleported away just in time by the wolf. Keith engages Macidus in battle, the two of them [[TeleportSpam teleporting through the caves throughout]], and Keith eventually finds the captive Kolivan. Meanwhile, Allura's magic frees the rest of the team, although they are [[CurbstompBattle ultimately ineffective against Macidus]]. Keith disposes of Macidus and the team frees Kolivan. Krolia decides to join Kolivan in helping reunite the Blade of Marmora, and bids goodbye to Keith and the team.

Added DiffLines:

* KilledOffscreen: Played straight with many of the Blades, who died in battle against Druids (or, depending on how much of the exposition is true, Macidus himself); subverted with [[NominalImportance Kolivan]], whom Macidus attests to be dead but is actually barely hanging on to life. Keith rescues him.

The team follows it to a planet with ruins of an ancient civilization and find Macidus, a solitary alien who has a collection of Marmora blades. Macidus explains that following Voltron and Lotor's disappearance, the Galra Empire was destabilized and Haggar's Druids set out to exterminate the Blade of Marmora. A big battle took place on Macidus's planet, and he thinks he is the last survivor...
