"Stay away from my lord" The skeletal celestial warned.. "Not one more step"

"Careful.. Sasariel.." "He carries a cloak of dark" Anis grav coughed.. planted against the rocks in the barren northern stretch of owls.

"Sidel.." Lone noted.. "Feel free to.. kill the warden, but leave Anis to me" "He is the only one here who may know where she is"

It was but a short fight, Sasariel might have been the guardian of underworlds entrance.. Sidel carried a true darkness from the depths of hybernaculuüm..
It pierced even the lesser dark of the but cursed. Engulfing it blazed amongst them.. as the wings of a murder blotting out the sun.
Sidel had changed to be the master of his affliction.

"Wait.." Anis grav pleaded to Lone as he sat on the ground in defeat.. "He's not here"
"Somam.. He joined with the fallen firegod.. The one called Aenimcea.."

"What are you talking about.. you dare to act surrendered?" Lone yelled while kicking Anis grav over.
"Noone is fooled, we are 'both here for answers"

"Then tell me!" "Where is Janus?!"
Anis uttered as Sasariel fell before him by Sidel's blade. Anis did not even seem to mind it anylonger..

"That is the big joke.." Lone sighed grabbing Anis by his suit pulling him closer.. "On Hura..."

Anis sat silent.. He had traveled all this way to Edin in search of his new lord only to find out he never left Hura..
And now the only way back... was through the last Denimus that was about to be the center of battle.. Not that Aenimcea would ever let him..

"Lone" ... Anis sighed deeply.. "It was Somam all along.. he has gone to .. ..his friend Odyses.. the girl never left his house.."
"But.. I.. " "I cannot exist without a lord you see.. i was but a slave to the will of the gods.." "This was never about my alliegance"

Anis slowly took off his helmet..

Now Lone understood why Anis had done everything.. including laying waste throughout his path in desperation.

Anis his face was old and pale, even falling appart..

"I cannot exist.. without a lord.. Janus..... i was given to him by the will of the late Barheire.."

"It no longer matters.. I had but days.. with some luck.." "But to go back to Hura.. ...its over"

Anis fell backward besides his guardian.

"What will you do" Sidel queried turning to Lone as his dark cloak decreased its volume. "Tomorrow will be the day it is night, you promised the undead king"

What could Lone do.. there was only one thing to do.. join the battle against Aenimcea at the ruined capital of Emper ..

"I cant.." Lone replied against his will and honor.. "I cant hold my promise" as he started walking toward the southwest..

"The angel girl?" Sidel called after him.

Lone looked back one more time and answered; "The angel girl"
