Synopsis: In Danwei, Alpha Flight battles Dreamqueen and the Jade Dragon has
turned against his former comrades. The Soviet, US, and Canadian governments go
on alert.
       Jeffries, observing the unassailable Buddhist priests, realizes that the dream
warriors are not real. The High Lama also tells Judd this, and he goes through
the dreams and attacks their queen directly. Laura realizes that since she could
open a portal to Liveworld, she can also close it. She does, and traps Judd with
the Dreamqueen, but not before she plants seeds of nightmares in the team (
see
iss. 67).
      The High Lama heals Heather and sends the team away. The Chinese government
calls off the attack, to avoid World War III.
