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...
