Battle[]
Wanting to find possible allies against the Goa'uld, SG-1 travels to Cimmeria where something happened in the past that the Goa'uld will not speak of. Once there, the team is scanned for Goa'uld symbiotes by an obelisk and it detects Teal'c's symbiote and starts to beam him into the Labyrinth leading to Thor's Hammer, but Colonel Jack O'Neill grabs on and is beamed in as well. In order to find the two, the rest of the team has Gairwyn take them to Kendra a former Goa'uld host who was freed by Thor's Hammer so she can lead them to where she came out. Kendra is reluctant, but eventually agrees to lead Captain Samantha Carter and Dr. Daniel Jackson to the spot. As O'Neill and Teal'c make their way through the Labyrinth, they find the bones of Goa'ulds and their hosts eaten by the Unas Ruax and their presence wakes him up. He attacks the two, demanding Teal'c kill O'Neill, but O'Neill shoots him, apparently killing him, but Ruax's healing powers keep him alive and he quickly recovers. Ruax catches up and attacks again, but O'Neill and Teal'c shoot again and run, but Ruax quickly recovers.
The two reach the Hammer and O'Neill is able to leave, but the Hammer starts to kill Teal'c's symbiote so O'Neill pulls him out of the beam and the two get ready to face Ruax. The two manage to maneuver Ruax in front of the Hammer and open fire, trying to knock him into the Hammer, but while he's weakened, he manages to keep from falling in so after they run out of ammunition, Teal'c shoves him in and both are affected by the Hammer. O'Neill pulls Teal'c out of the Hammer and the Hammer kills Ruax. Ruax's host is mortally wounded by O'Neill and Teal'c's gunfire and dies without Ruax to heal it. O'Neill and Teal'c reunite with Jackson, Carter and Kendra and Teal'c is freed when Jackson uses Teal'c's Staff weapon to destroy Thor's Hammer from the outside. In order to protect the people of the planet, the team requests they seal the entrance so any Goa'uld or Jaffa who come to the planet will hopefully be trapped in the Labyrinth.[3]
