“I have existed since nearly the dawn of time, have witnessed countless atrocities and unspeakable horrors–I have seen kingdoms rise and fall. Many have required my intervention, but I did not meddle”

“Exactly how we like you,” Zaiper snapped. Do not interfere with the natural order, return to sleep in the coffin–bed and leave the world to ordinary mortals. Why do you persist?”

“Let us just say… this time, I choose to,” she said. “This conversation has sealed your fate, Zaiper Thoryk Dragaxlov. The next time we meet will be in the public eye, with me standing in my physical form while the world listens to tales of your crimes. And that day is near, I have nearly completed my tasks here.”

She paused, slanting her head to look at him. “Oh, and I see you are searching for ways to kill me. One dark mage and three shamans? Daring, but pitiful, really. Incompetent rat.”

Zaiper bristled, turning away, ears flushing pink. Why did she always have to know?

“I could wish you better luck in your pathetic quest,” she went on neutrally. “But it would be wasted. You will not silence me, not your way, not any way. Our ends are drawing near, you and I. Mark my words and carve them with blood; the next time we meet will be your downfall. Prepare for it.” She vanished.

Zaiper sat there, staring at the empty space where she had stood.

A laugh bubbled up in his throat, and he laughed until it hurt to breathe, and still he laughed.

But when he stopped and the silence came, her words repeated in his ears.

His reality was like a cold bucket of water dumped on him.

That bitch.

GRAND KING DAEMONIKAI

A good mood feeds the soul, and Daemonikai had been in the best of them for days.

Until the message from Mysticaria arrived.

Seated at his desk, he held the parchment.

I received your message, King Daemonikai, and have since initiated my own investigation. However, I have found nothing to suggest the condition of your mind may indeed involve mage magic.

That said, I performed a spell using the hair you sent, and something did appear… strange. There may indeed be magic involved.

I do not say this with certainty, but the possibility must not be ignored.
