Chakram
- Xena and Gabrielle return, but Xena cannot remember her dark past as a warrior. Gabrielle, Joxer and Amarice try to give her reminders so that she can help continue her quests. Ares and Kal (another war god), try to get the one "pure" person to reunite the light and dark chakram, a tool that can kill a god. With the help of Eli and the others, Xena re-unites the chakram and becomes a warrior again. She destroys Kal with the chakram and then destroys it so that nobody would have that ultimate power. She is left with a new chakram that has the ability to split into two halves.

Succession
- Mavican, a female warrior is determined to succeed Xena as Ares' main warrior. She tries to defeat Xena in battle and Ares decides to make a game of the challenge. Ares' intent was to find a successor, but it wasn't Mavican, it was Gabrielle (who had been learning to be a better warrior). In Ares' game, Xena and Gabrielle share one body, Xena taking the day, Gabrielle taking the night. Xena learns of the trick and sets up a trap for Mavican. Meanwhile, Ares tries to tempt Gabrielle to become his apprentice. Xena and Mavican fight and Xena nearly defeats her when Mavican asks Ares for help. That releases Xena and Gabrielle since Ares' rule is that "anyone who asks for help doesn't deserve it."

Amarice meets a friend of Joxer named Armand and falls in love with him, but is torn because she is an amazon who has only known to hate men. Xena comes to learn from the local healer that she is pregnant and must tell the gang about it. Xena helps Talia, against her wishes, to fight Darkon, a marauder who is Talia's husband. The gang pulls together to defeat Darkon and his henchmen and ride off from town. Gabrielle has a new horse, the one she saved and communicated with from their earlier travel.

Meanwhile, when Ares tells the gods that Livia is really Eve, they decide to call upon the Furies for help. After Xena saves Eve from a group of angry Romans determined to exact revenge for the loss of their loved ones, the Furies begin to undermine Gabrielle's thoughts in an effort to turn her against Eve. One of Eli's followers suggests they take Eve to Eli's disciple, the Baptist, who initiates sinners into "the way of love." As Eve is being baptized, Xena is bathed in a heavenly light and is infused with the power to kill gods! Soon a number of deities appear and are shocked when Xena kills Hephaestus, Poseidon and Discord. As Xena, Gabrielle and Eve flee, Xena explains that Eve's spiritual cleansing gave her the power to kill gods, a power she will retain as long as Eve is alive. Furthermore, the Archangel Michael has informed Xena that Eve is the messenger who will prepare the way for the God of love. Xena suggests to Eve that she can begin atoning for her sins by visiting people she wronged and accepting their judgment. The three women go to Joxer's tavern where Virgil is mourning the loss of his father. When Virgil sees Eve, he draws his sword and charges her, but Xena intervenes.

When Xena catches a glimpse of Gabrielle plunging her sai into Eve's back, she hurls her chakram hitting Gabrielle in the back of the head and severely wounding her. Instinctively, Xena knows that the Furies are responsible and even though she can't see them. Ten gods arrive and begin to battle Xena. As Xena does her best to protect the gravely wounded Eve, Aphrodite is moved to protect the unconscious Gabrielle and drags her into the next room. Believing that Xena has lost her powers and that Eve must be dead, Hades confidently approaches Xena, who kills him. With most of the gods dead and Athena and Ares wounded, the few remaining gods retreat to Olympus. Xena pleads with Aphrodite to save her dying friend, but she insists she can only heal with Athena's blessing. Xena forces Aphrodite to take them all to the palace of the gods, where Ares intercepts them. Ares offers to make Xena a god if she lets them kill Eve. Refusing, Xena shoots Ares in the leg and uses him as a shield while she offers the remaining gods a deal. If they heal Eve and Gabrielle, she will leave them in peace. When Athena refuses, the fighting continues and Xena kills Artemis. Eve dies just as Xena is impaling Athena, so the goddess is spared. Her reprieve, however, is short-lived. In a stunning turn of events, Ares is moved to heal Eve and Gabrielle, making it possible for Xena to kill the now confident and unsuspecting Athena. Ares explains that he gave up his immortality to save Eve and Gabrielle in the hopes that Xena, whom he has always loved, will give him another chance. Xena thanks Ares and then Eve, Xena, and Gabrielle are shown on the beach together. - submitted by Brian Snell
