"I'm breaking the laws of nature, I know."
"Well, don't stop now. When the Sanctum is restored, they will attack again. We have to defend it."
Doctor Strange and Wong[src]

The Battle at the Hong Kong Sanctum was a battle that pitted the Masters of the Mystic Arts against Kaecilius and his Zealots. Having attacked the London and New York Sanctum and fatally wounded the Ancient One, the Zealots initiated the final phase of their plan to merge Earth with the Dark Dimension. Their efforts, however, were ultimately thwarted by Doctor Strange, Karl Mordo, and Wong, among others, with Strange using the Eye of Agamotto to reverse the destruction of the Sanctum.

Background

Doctor Strange EW Screencap 02

The Ancient One teaches Stephen Strange

"Mordo, London Sanctum has fallen. And New York has been attacked. Twice. You know where they're going next."
"Hong Kong."
"You told me once to fight as if my life depended on it, because one day, it might. Well, today is that day. I can not defeat them alone."
"The Sanctum has already fallen. The Dark Dimension. Dormammu is coming. It's too late. Nothing can stop him."
"Not necessarily."
Doctor Strange and Karl Mordo[src]

Doctor Strange was trained by the Masters of the Mystic Arts following a car accident that ruined his hands. After spending all his money on a possible cure, he was instructed by Jonathan Pangborn to go to Kamar-Taj in Kathmandu, Nepal. He became a protégé of the Ancient One and learned of various spells and relics from Karl Mordo and Wong, including the Eye of Agamotto.

The Ancient One faces off the Zealots

Kaecilius and the Zealots, following the Theft of the Book of Cagliostro, recited a ritual to summon power from the Dark Dimension. They attacked both the London Sanctum and the New York Sanctum and wounded the Ancient One during a battle in the Mirror Dimension. She would later pass away in the Metro-General Hospital from her injuries, while the Zealots escaped to Hong Kong to destroy the final Sanctum.[1]

Battle

"Choose your weapon wisely. No one steps foot in the Sanctum. No one."
Wong[src]

Determined to prevent Kaecilius and the Zealots from destroying the Hong Kong Sanctum, Wong ordered the Masters of the Mystic Arts to prepare for battle. Despite their best efforts, the Masters were defeated and the Sanctum was destroyed, leaving the Earth vulnerable to Dormammu.

Doctor Strange uses the Eye of Agamotto

By the time Doctor Strange and Karl Mordo arrived, they found the decimated city being consumed by the Dark Dimension. Kaecilius prepared to stab Strange with a Space Shard only for Strange to activate the Eye of Agamotto, causing time to reverse.

The Zealots freed themselves and attacked Strange and Mordo. Despite their best efforts, Kaecilius was trapped inside a tiled wall and another Zealot was trapped in a fish tank and was left to drown.

Eventually, Kaecilius freed himself and managed to tamper with the Eye of Agamotto, stopping time. Strange fled the scene and confronted Dormammu inside the growing Dark Dimension. There, Strange put himself and Dormammu in a time loop to force him into agreeing to his bargain of leaving Earth and taking the Zealots with him.

Karl Mordo leaves the Masters of the Mystic Arts

The Zealots, including Kaecilius, were taken to the Dark Dimension, granting them the immortality they had longed for. While the Masters of the Mystic Arts were celebrating, Mordo, disillusioned that Strange had neglected the consequences of tampering with time, decided to depart from the Masters of the Mystic Arts.[1]

"Every day, there are reports of disturbances in Hong Kong or blue-skinned killers in Wyoming."
