??? POV: i knew Jackal had ties to that b***** of a SilkWing. I knew that he fell head over heals for her. and that makes perfect leverage. He was about to rat me out to Queen Glory but i quickly shut him up. With Crystal as my leverage there was no chance he would leave my service. I told him to kill either DeathBringer or Glory. He did neither. I had no choice except to set Crystal with Jambu. Since Jackal is dead im not going to keep her around, so i might as well give her up. Im not cruel, i just get what i want. Having Crystal with Jambu i expected them to just be friends. I never ecpected them to... hit it off right away. But since they had those children... again. i get what i want when i want it. So now lets get cracking.

???: Smoke. Stone. Red lava glowing under my talons. And grip the ash. Now i know one name. i have no idea who i am or what i was. but there is one name that i will forever curse to the winds. Curse you NightBlade. I know that DeathBringer was once my friend- Or was he my enemy? I know that i once knew him.  I stand up to my feet and feel around me. an old cell. I guess that i need a weapon now.
