Chapter 17: Fog

Several days later...

Draven still hasn't returned from his fight with Xyonex and fog has started to roll into his domain, leaving Crowe somewhat curious.

Crowe: "Welp, he probably lost against those two, which is bizarre since they are the weakest saints."

Crowe kicks back and looks at the moon.

Crowe: "If I don't see him tomorrow, I'm packing up shop and taking this place for myself."

His crows perch on the nearby walls.

Crowe: "Other than that, I'm just as bored as ever without that time bomb around."

However...

The remaining six saints are beyond furious.

Lemorse: "Great advice! We lost our only source of husks!"

Paruna: "Now Draven will be able to get to us far easier than before, even with the bunch they made before departure."

Quintzo: "(sighing) Nothing we can do. We'll just have to rely on tricks to beat him."

Vauntra: "(agitated) So your specialty?"

The Entity's voice echoes again.

Entity: "Miscalculation on my part."

Vauntra: "(agitated) You think?!"

Ralyn: "(sighing) So what now?"

The Entity examines his subordinates closely.

Entity: "Vauntra."

Paruna: "You sure about Vauntra?"

Vauntra cracks her knuckles.

Vauntra: "(smirking) Could use a skull to bash in right about now."

Lemorse: "She is a loose cannon..."

Egrenorez: "Let her go."

They all look towards Egrenorez.

Ralyn: "Then go ahead."

Entity: "All I can give is luck."

Vauntra: "(smirking) Don't need it where he's going."

Vauntra disappears in a blue light.

Egrenorez: "(in head) Draven could kill us all, but as long as Crowe remains alive, the end won't come."

Entity: "Don't let fear get to you Egrenorez."

Lemorse: "Hm?"

The voice dies out.

Paruna: "What was that about?"

Egrenorez is beginning to sweat.

Quintzo: "Some beans you aren't spilling?"

Egrenorez walks away.

Egrenorez: "J-Just return here when Vauntra goes to deal with Draven."

Egrenorez fades in a dark red light.

Lemorse: "What's going on with him?"

Ralyn: "He's been getting more and more antsy with each fight."

Paruna: "(sighing) Let's just do as we're told."

They all stand there, contemplating what exactly is going on...
