Nash lands on his back in his own throne room when he is pushed through the portal which has long since closed. Merag rushes to her brother's side and helps him to his feet.

"Nash are you alright, what happened?" She asks him seeing how he's a bit hurt.

"Dumon is in danger, where's Durbe?" He doesn't even answer her question and completely ignores the guests.

"He's in his room like he always is." Merag says a bit worried by how her brother is acting.

Nash rushes to get to Durbe's room, hoping that it's not to late to help Dumon. He bangs on Durbe's door demanding he comes out. Durbe is surprised that Nash is back so soon but opens his door.

"Nash you're hurt, what happened?" He asks him.

"No time to explain, Dumon's in serious danger. I need you to get me back to the Underworld."

"You're hurt you can't go back there." Durbe says as he tries to heal Nash's injuries.

Suddenly a wall near the treasure room is blown to bites, shaking the whole palace violently. Guards immediately go to see what's going on only to come face to face with Embers who's in no mood to play.

"That blast is close to the treasure room." Durbe says as he and Nash race off to that area.

Embers pushes back the guards and attacks a few that get to close to him. No one is killed just injured, he rips the door of the treasure room off its hinges and looks into the room to see an ray of gold and silver.

"This should be more then enough for Lord Blood." He says to himself with a smirk and walks into the room to grab a large bag of gold.

All of the emperors and a few more guards come to confront the intruder. Embers walks out of the room carrying the large bag of gold over his shoulder but when he sets his site on Nash all hell brakes lose. Embers drops the bag of gold on the floor and quickly grabs Nash by the throat slamming him into the wall.

"You have no idea the torment you put him through!" He yells at him.

Nash isn't able to react and gets slammed into well, he claws desperately at his throat trying to get Embers off him.

"You're lucky that Dumon even has an ounce of love left for you. If it were me I would of just left you to your fate in that arena." Embers growls tightening his grip on Nash's throat. "Because of you Dumon is bleeding to death and may never recover from the torment that was meant for you!" He slams him again the wall again.

The other emperors and guards watch as Nash's struggles as slowly getting weaker, none of them know what to do. They try to come to Nash's aid but are easily pushed back.

"You couldn't leave him could you?! First you accuse him of something he didn't do practically braking him emotionally, then you show up expecting him to forgive you which he does, by taking the worse torture imaginable that was meant for you! You're going to pay one way another for all the pain and suffering you caused him."

Embers goes to cut Nash's throat with his free clawed hand.

"Embers please, spare him..." Dumon says weakly from his cell.

Before Embers even puts a scratch on Nash he stops, hearing Dumon through their link.

"You really want to spare this piece of trash?" Embers asks angrily, wanting Nash to suffer in anyway he can possibly make him.

"I do. Please Embers, do it for me." Dumon pleads in a weak begging voice.

"Fine, but he's paying the 3000 gold coins to get you out." He throws Nash's almost unconscious body towards the other emperors who rush to his side.

Nash coughs as air fills his lungs, Embers doesn't pay any attention to Nash or his emperors and grabs the bag of gold.

"I'll be taking this, think of it as compensation for all pain and suffering you put him through."

Guilt and shame are the only things Nash feels, even though he couldn't really understand most of Embers ranting he does know that it's his fault that Dumon is dying.

"Take whatever you want, just save him."

"I plan on it." Embers leaves with the gold in hand.

Embers appears before Lord Blood's throne and bows to show respect.

"As promised, the 3000 gold coins for the mortal prisoner." Embers says.

Lord Blood gets someone to count out 3000 pieces, he takes what is owed to him and leaves the rest for Embers.

"Release the mortal!" Lord Blood snaps at one of his guards.

The guard goes down to the dungeon and drags Dumon out with a chain collar wrapped around his neck. Dumon is barely able to stand let alone walk but somehow he manages to do both. The guard throws the leash to Embers who catches it and takes his leave with his human side and what's left of his gold.
