In the September 14 episode, Xandra confronted another of Borgo’s soldiers, Hergis (Joko Diaz), who has been stranded on Earth for years. Hergis failed in his mission to secure the powerful Martean stone from the original Darna (Iza Calzado) — and worse, killed her against Borgo’s wishes.

Seeking to explain himself to Borgo, Hergis first had to go through Xandra, who told him that their master is displeased by the complications that arose from his actions. Not only has the stone eluded him, they now also have to contend with a new, potentially more powerful protector, Narda (Jane de Leon).
