           Sounds to me like bits and pieces of several fanfict stories .    
   Many years ago I wrote a   
   story that included Ares being locked away in the cave. And how the old   
   Chakram ended up being   
   split into two pieces. And how the 400,000 souls found their redemption so   
   Xena was restored to her   
   body.
