«I was sure Raelos would be able to get some results... At least, when the venerable Cassian Thalukvar returns to Earth, I'll have some good news to give him. Akashi betrayed us. Velshekar disappeared. Velune is working with the Monster Reapers. Eskari was defeated... If Raelos failed too... how could I even report back?» Zhurvak mutters—the blue amphibious creature with dozens of yellow eyes.
Raelos warned him about the destination, so he materialized there a second after the incubus arrived.
He sits on the edge of a nearby rooftop, watching the fight with growing excitement. That excitement explodes into pure joy when Hakuto is struck dead by lightning.
«Go, Raelos! Go! You're the best!»
Zhurvak jumps and cheers like a crazed cheerleader.
«H-Hakuto...» Chantal murmurs.
Her whole body trembles as she staggers toward Raelos.
When she sees Hakuto killed by his own father, a new spark lights up in Ana's eyes.
