Tune in to "The Quest" as it continues THURSDAY, AUGUST 7 (8:00-9:00 p.m., ET/PT) with "Tournament for the Queen." News comes from the battlefield that Verlox (Douglas Tait) and his dark army inch ever closer to Saenctum's walls. The Paladins are called on to display their field skills under Queen Ralia's (Susanne Gschwendtner) scrutiny. On horseback, the Paladins must go through a number of tasks to prepare them for battle. Who will crack under the pressure and be sent to the Fates? Who will be the next to be banished from Everealm?

"The Quest" was filmed on location in Austria and is executive produced by Bertram van Munster, Elise Doganieri, Mark Ordesky, Jane Fleming, Rob Eric and Michael Williams.
