    The Warlock appears and summons Jean and Prof. Xavier to his subterranean cavern where his headquarters was an actual medieveal castle, intending to make Jean his queen. He revealed to them an apparatus he invented that was powered by his brain. It was suppose to turn the minds of normal mortals backwards- to the level of mankind at the time of King Arthur.
