He would encounter the last vestiges of Septiego's troupe, and eventually discover their master's fate. His adventure though the ancient city would lead him to many discoveries long since lost after the collapse of the Holy Land. With strong resolve, Devian embarked on his quest to return the cursed idol and return prosperity and vitality to his neighboring kingdom. If the idol remained outside of the ancient city, Heladin, and possibly Azalin, was doomed to mirror the twisted metropolis that spanned the vast caverns of the Land of Disaster. The idol was originally taken from the ruined depths of the Holy Land, now known as the Land of Disaster, and given to the unsuspecting king of Heladin.

From within his cloak, the dark stranger produced the object of Heladin's corruption: The Idol of Sorrow. Meanwhile, in the adjoining kingdom of Azalin, a shrouded figure appears at the doorstep of Prince Devian. The idol was presumed lost forever, but the decay of the nation continued. Alas, the party was neither seen nor heard from again. Fearing for the life of his king and home, the sword master Septiego took a battalion of his best men to return the idol which was believed to be the source of this tragedy. Ever since the idol was brought into the kingdom, the once prosperous nation fell into a state of corruption and decay. The country was enveloped with a strange sorrow, a certain darkness that stains the soul of man. Their king, smitten by a strange idol that was given to him as a gift, lies dying.

In the land of Heladin, something is amiss. It was released in North America by Agetec in 2002 and in Europe by Metro3D in 2003. It is the fourth and final game in the King's Field series.
