Chapter 20: Night and Day
However...
The remaining 5 Saints are afraid, almost willing to surrender to Draven.
Lemorse: "He was really able to defeat Vauntra at such an overwhelming disadvantage."
Quintzo: "(excited) He's quite the fighter! Never knew he had such a fight in him!"
Paruna: "Are you actually amazed with that traitor?!"
Quintzo: "If you were like me, you'd enjoy it."
Ralyn: "No one is as bat shit crazy like you Quintzo."
Egrenorez: "(in head) I'm the only one who's just as insane."
However, only one has the guts to stand on his feet.
Ralyn: "Entity? May I be the next one to fight?"
The Entity's voice begins to echo.
Entity: "You would've been my choice anyways Ralyn. Go on."
The voice fades.
Paruna: "Are you sure? He's far more dangerous than we could've anticipated."
Ralyn: "So am I."
Ralyn flies away in an orange light.
Quintzo: "Oh I can't wait to see what Ralyn can do! It'll be a spectacle!"
Lemorse: "What goes through that head of yours?"
Egrenorez: "Don't answer him Quintzo."
Paruna: "We'd appreciate that."
They lie and wait.
Several days later...
Draven awakens in his throne after being incapacitated for a few days, his body completely regenerated.
Draven: "(drowsy) How the hell did I get back here?"
???: "I carried you."
Crowe is leaning against the entrance.
Crowe: "I followed your battered body to Vauntra's and carried your mangled body back with me."
Draven notices the mace.
Draven: "A mace?"
Crowe: "Had a feeling you needed a replacement."
Crowe starts digging through his cloak.
Crowe: "Could also get you a new morning star if you want."
Draven twirls the mace in his hand.
Draven: "I'll use this for now."
Crowe pulls out a letter.
Crowe: "Here. You'll need this. Ralyn's up ne-"
Draven burns it away with a single jolt.
Draven: "All I needed to know."
He gets back on his feet, feeling better than ever.
Draven: "That bastard's been waiting long enough."
Draven briskly walks past Crowe.
Crowe: "At least you're not looking like your dying with every step."
Draven hoists his new mace.
Draven: "Better than last time. Easily."
Draven leaves his domain behind once again in search of his next target, Ralyn...
