Premise
Set between the events of the Justice League: Knights of Rao episodes War of Light, Part 2: Seven Lights in Hand and Big Twisted Bomb, fugitive scientists of Project Cadmus attempt to rebuild the agency’s destroyed reputation by creating a new device which can bring the dead back to life. But when the new device falls in the hands of criminals who end up using it to resurrect deceased foes of the Justice League, Terra and her Knights of Rao work to rebuild an ancient device created by the New Genesis Gods to undo what the rogue scientists started while the Justice League and the Teen Titans work to stop the new threat which Luthor unwillingly unleashed before before something worse can be created.

Plot
10 years ago, Lena Luthor witnessed the chaotic battle between Superman and his fellow members of the Justice League against the forces of General Zod, who was planning to terraform Earth in the image of Krypton. In order to help the League stop Zod's plan, Lena found the need of sacrificing herself by piloting a war plane containing Superman's Kryptonian Escape Pod and directing it to Zod's terraforming machine, destroying it and killing Zod in the progress. While attending to Lena's funeral, her father Lex Luthor loudly blamed Superman for "having brought this on" while vowing revenge on him.

In present day, following the seven Lantern Corps’ battle against the Black Lanterns, Luthor’s employed scientists had salvaged a small shard from the Black Lantern Power Battery as paid by his secret benefactors from Project Cadmus (who are going to hiding following Amanda Waller's arrest). Using a new device the Lexcorp Engineers built called the “Heart of Anubis”, Luthor manages to resurrect Lena. However, Lena (having experienced visions of her father’s crimes, including one which allowed Vandal Savage to take away numerous innocent lives ) reprimands him in tears of rage before escaping the facility and departing to places unknown with help from Jesse Chambers / Liberty Belle, a young speedster who was spying on Luthor. As Luthor orders his men to search for her everywhere, a stranger sneaks into the facility and discreetly steals the Heart of Anubis.

Next day, Lena (disguising herself as Tess Mercer) is hiding from authorities who are possibly loyal to Luthor until she crosses paths with Terra and her teammates the Knights of Rao (whom she is aware to be related to Vandal Savage’s victims) as well as the Teen Titans. Despite aware of her true identity and parentage, the young heroes spare her and agree to help her hide from Luthor’s agents. After Tess tells the Knights and the Titans of what Luthor committed, Terra and Nightwing contact the Justice League and alert them of the situation. Meanwhile, Harley Quinn, who was the intruder who invaded Lexcorp, uses the Heart of Anubis to resurrect the Joker, who had perished during the Enchantress’ rampage in Midway City. Her act inadvertently resurrects General Zod and Ra’s al Ghul along with several other villains and dark hearted ancient mortals who perished sometime ago before it successfully resurrects the Joker.

Knowing that the source of the deceased villains and tyrants’ resurrection is the Heart of Anubis, the young heroes formulate a plan to destroy it. While the Titans go on to help the Justice League, the Knights are approached by Big Barda, who informs them that they can destroy the Heart of Anubis with the Anti-Matter Fang, an ancient sword of massive power which was once wielded by the finest of the New Gods until it was shattered into pieces during a conflict between Highfather and Darkseid. Terra and her team exact to find an collect the pieces and bring them together so that they can destroy the Heart of Anubis. Meanwhile, the Justice League (Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, Flash and Aquaman) and the Titans arrive in Lexcorp to investigate the files about the Heart of Anubis before they battle and defeat an army of Spartans sent there by Ares, who previously perished due to the instant lack of conflict (as a result of the Blue Lantern Corps and Knights of Rao’s actions against Tyranny ) until he was resurrected by the Heart.

Toymaster, New Gaia, Blue Lantern and Star Hunter are with Tess in a ravaged Project Cadmus facility of London to retrieve some shards which were buried in the debris. They are ambushed in there by Task Force X Squad members who were sent there by Luthor to retrieve Tess. The villains are however defeated with help from Liberty Belle and Hal Jordan's Green Lantern trainee Jessica "Jade" Cruz, who also agree to help with the shards of the sword. Alpha-Wolf, Black Owl, Galaxor and Omega Knight are in Vlatava where they discover some more shards in Count Vertigo’s secret laboratory (which Perdita was unaware of). The group are met there by the Justice League and the Titans just as Vlatava was to be attacked by the Ultimen, whom the heroes defeat and repel.

Terra and Sun Rose are with Barda in the volcanic lands of Apokolips, where they are searching for the Anti-Soul Ruby, which is one of the three main sources of the sword’s power (along with the Sol and Lunar rubies). There, they encounter Raven’s mother Arella, whose soul was chosen to be the Ruby’s keeper until it would be obtained by someone from Earth or New Genesis. Reaching the Ruby's sanctuary, the three are informed that the Ruby can only be obtained with the sacrifice of a human mortal with irredeemable soul. They are ambushed there by Ra’s al Ghul’s daughter Talia, who was planning to brainwash or kill her son Damian’s friends unless he abandons his father’s rules and path. The two girls and Barda, deeming her as a soulless mother who does not truly love her son, consequently thwart Talia and throw her into the fiery pits to her death, earning the Ruby.

Now after the Sol Ruby, which is in possession of the Enchantress (who has become an independent life form strong enough to live without a host thanks to the Heart of Anubis) as part of General Zod’s plans to terraform Earth into the new image of Krypton, Terra lures and confronts Zod’s forces in what was once Troy until it was invaded and destroyed by Agamemnon and his army centuries ago. She is joined in the fight by Superman, Stargirl, White Lantern, Starfire and Shazam and, after Enchantress is subdued by Starfire, Terra obtains the Sol Ruby and departs as Superman holds Zod back until the Knights complete their mission. While waiting for Terra, Tess is ambushed by Metallo, who was given a new robotic body which uses the Lunar Ruby as the battery and is seeking revenge on the Knights for foiling his attempts against Superman. Metallo severely woulds Tess, but she cannot die because of the effects of the Heart of Anubis (which will soon affect all humanity the more it resurrects the dark-hearted), which also grant her superior strength. Taking advantage of this, Tess fights back and rips the Lunar Stone from Metallo's chest, permanently destroying his body and John Corbin's consciousness in the progress.

While Batman and his proteges (Nightwing, Batgirl, Robin and Red Robin) work with Geo-Force and Flash to battle Ra’s al Ghul, Poison Ivy, Jason Woodrue (who was resurrected as Floronic Man ) and the Task Force X Squad in Gotham City and with the Joker watching, Wonder Woman and Aquaman lead their armies of Amazons and Atlanteans to aid the U.S.A. soldiers in a battle against an army of Spartans commanded by Agamemnon and sent by Ares to destroy Metropolis. The Justice League and the Titans, along with Liberty Belle, the Amazons and Atlanteans, mount a defense and a battle issues. Terra reunites with her teammates and they assemble the shards and the rubies, successfully rebuilding the sword. As the others follow Barda in the battle for Metropolis, Terra and Tess head to the Heart of Anubis.

The two are ambushed by Rose, who is reluctant to let them destroy the Heart because it had just resurrected her long lost mother Lillian. Tess holds Rose off enough for Terra to finally destroy the Heart of Anubis with the completed sword. Just then, Tara has a tearful moment with Tess, who thanks her for setting her free and peacefully crumbles into stardust in Tara’s arms as Rose desperately rushes to her mother. The Knights of Rao’s mission succeeds, with those who were resurrected by the Heart of Anubis disintegrating into ashes, including Galatea, Downpour, Shifter, Juice, Wind Dragon, Agamemnon, Ares, Zod, Enchantress, Floronic Man, Ra’s al Ghul, Captain Boomerang, Killer Frost, King Shark and finally the Joker. Rose reaches her mother, who voices regret over seeing her daughter become what Slade turned her into and for having done nothing to stop him before she disintegrates as well. Learning of his daughter’s death, the enraged Luthor again blames it on Superman, who in turn scolds him for almost wiping out everyone else’s existence with his ambitious attempts to bring Lena back to life.

Luthor starts facing more accusations on him about the incident by Steve Trevor and Rick Flag as Superman and his fellow members of the League leave. Tara visits Lena Luthor’s grave (which is now written “Tess Mercer”) as she voices regret for her death. Tara is comforted by Diana, who convinces her that Tess is in a better place now. Just then, the two are approached and greeted by Tess’ spirit, who gently encourages Tara in continuing leading her friends on their mission to save the world from Tyranny, to which a confident Tara takes off to do so as Diana watches with a smile.

Quotes

 * (Tess and Cyborg are analyzing the files about Anti-Matter Fang)
 * Cyborg: Say. Joining the pieces of this sword won't be any problem. Just gather the gems, the shards will attach themselves in no time.
 * Tess Mercer: The sooner that happens, better. And maybe enough time to stop my father from trying to find me and get me to tell about Clark.
 * Cyborg: (that said catches his attention) And I know it's not of my business, but... you really don't wanna let your dad know about Superman? You really care for him like Luthor hates him?
 * Tess Mercer: No joke about it. I've known my father for my entire life. Even before he ever knew a thing about Krypton... it was pretty clear he happened to be nothing more than a heartless tyrant who's mad with power. (scene shifts to a flashback of a young Lena; narrating) I was only 12 years old. And I once sneaked into a Lexcorp facility without letting my father know... (scene shows her watching metahumans being experimented on) And I saw what they really used to do: to make weapons out of metahumans. He didn't care about those people's lives. Like I said: he only cares about their destructive power. (scene cuts to Lex Luthor grinning diabolically and Lena watching in horror) I wasn't proud of that. Nor was I proud of the monster he turned out to be. (scene shifts to her riding her bike in the Kent's neighborhood) And there was also this day... (scene shows infant Kal-El's Kryptonian Escape Pod crash-landing in the grass) ...when the baby would who grow up to be the champion who now stands between Earth and any threat against it arrived. (young Lena sees through the pod and sees infant Kal-El crying) I knew that if I convinced my father to raise him, he would just make Clark another subject for Lexcorp. And then, Clark would grow up to become a monster like the ones he fought against. And I couldn't let that happen. (scene shifts to young Lena calling for Jonathan and Martha) So I did what had to be done. (scene shifts to Martha holding infant Kal-El in her arms while Jonathan puts the pod in the truck. Scene shifts to the two riding home before Luthor arrives in the area the pod landed while Lena watches hidden) With my luck, he never suspected a thing. And I couldn't tell a thing about it. (scene shifts to a adult Lena watching Clark speak with Lois Lane) Years passed, and I still vowed to protect his secrets. Like Lois also did. (scene shifts to Lena preparing to pilot a military aircraft contain the escape pod) But then, there was this day when Zod's forces arrived to try to terraform Earth into Krypton. My father found out what I did in Smallville years ago. (Lena sees her father coming in the hangar and seeing her in the aircraft ready to fly) It was pretty clear for me that he just wanted me to tell him Superman's identity without even caring about the family he swore to protect. So once again... (Lena takes off with the aircraft) I did what had to be done. (scene shifts to Lena flying the aircraft towards Zod's terraforming machine with Zod still in there) Even if it would cost me my own life. (Lena's aircraft crashes on the machine, destroying it and killing Zod; scene cuts to Superman standing over a dying Lena, who shares one last tearful smile with him before she passes out and dies) But at least... I did make sure my father's terrible legacy would die... for the sake of all humankind.


 * (Terra and Sun-Rose are planning to search for the Soul Ruby, one of the pieces of the Anti-Matter Fang)
 * Big Barda: If you two are going after the Soul Ruby, you'll need me.
 * Terra: You know where it is?
 * Big Barda: I haven't been there for a while, but I do. (scene shifts to the three in a scorched land with a red black sky)
 * Sun-Rose: Such an evil place. Don't you think, Terra?
 * Terra: Should've expected to have seen worse. (they see an statue of Darkseid) Is this Apokolips?
 * Big Barda: The desert of Apokolips. But, yes. Come along. (they go on. They see a a sacred temple)
 * Terra: Well... at least the only good place to go in this evil planet. (just then, they see a white-hooded figure standing in the temple entrance) And that is...?
 * Big Barda: The Keeper of the Ruby.
 * Ruby Keeper: Welcome to the Soul Temple of Apokolips, Barda, daughter of Breeda. Tara Markov, daughter of Viktor and Amelia Markov. And Esperanza Del Rey, daughter of Alejandro and Estella Del Rey.
 * Sun-Rose: You know us?
 * Ruby Keeper: It is my gift to know all who journey here.
 * Terra: Where is the Soul Ruby?
 * Ruby Keeper: You should know: it may extract a terrible price.
 * Terra: We are prepared.
 * Ruby Keeper: (slowly levitates in the air) We all think that at first. (she turns to see the three; her face is revealed as Raven's mother Arella) Sometimes, we are all wrong.
 * Sun-Rose: (discreetly; to Terra) This must be Raven's mother. She looks a lot like her.
 * Terra: Yes.
 * Big Barda: How is it you know this place so well?
 * Arella: A lifetime ago, my soul was imprisoned in the realm of the demon who took me from my child. Until the power of the Soul Ruby freed me and sent me here in this realm. Guiding others to a treasure I cannot possess. Only observe.


 * (Terra successfully destroys the Heart of Anubis. Then, she has a vision of herself in the top of a mountain. She sees someone watching the skies and recognizes him)
 * Terra: Father?
 * Viktor Markov: Tara? (he turns to see her and they hug as she starts crying. Viktor comforts her) There. There. (she looks at him in the eyes) Did you do it?
 * Terra: Yes.
 * Viktor Markov: Then why so depressed?
 * Terra: (sniffs) For the first time... my objective cost me someone. (a tear slides in her face)
 * Viktor Markov: This happens. Great victories like this one always comes with a great sacrifice. (Scene shifts to Terra back to reality. Then, she sees Tess collapsing and Rose looking at the destroyed stone before running away desperately)
 * Terra: Tess! (rushes towards Tess and holds her in her arms) Tess?
 * Tess Mercer: (weakly) Tara... (energies are spreading out of her body)
 * Terra: Tess... I'm s... (starts crying) I'm so sorry... I...
 * Tess Mercer: (puts her fingers in Tara's lips) Shhh. It's alright, Tara. You and I both knew it was the only way... So that humanity can still live... without any further corruptions. (smiles as tears slide from her eyes) I'm just glad I could still see... that despite all that my father had done... all the injustice he brought on... to you... and everybody,... there's still hope and freedom for humanity. (touches Tara's cheek) Thanks to you. To all of you. (voice echoes) Be free, Tara. And share that freedom with those you swore to protect. (she passes out and her body disintegrates into stardust. Tara lays down on her knees crying before she is approached and comforted by Lois and Supergirl)

 * Agamemnon: No! Wait! I must... I must still destroy the descendants of Troy...! NOOO!!! (he disintegrates)

 * Starfire: Superman?
 * Superman: Yes. I know. She did it. (Zod attempts to attack him, but Superman blocks his attack and pushes him away)
 * General Zod: (panting) It shouldn't... end this way! Not yet! (grunts)
 * Superman: What was it you said? Oh, yes. This is for the greater good of Krypton. (Zod crumbles into ashes)
