” After a pause he added “Did you see any difference in me?” “No, you are as arrogant as ever!” and I went to my room, hearing him laugh a s...ort, rough laugh. I heard him preparing the bath and after he had his soak, which took 20 minutes or so, I relaxed in the hot water. When I got out and dressed in my pajama, the light in his room was off and I heard his snoring. I browsed the internet, chatted a bit with friends and just as I was about to call it a day, I heard strange sounds from his. For the first time since we'd both been working there, Monday morning couldn't come soon enough. We'd agreed to show up early ourselves, something we likewise knew that Beth would.

Why did he have to ever return from ... wherever he went? Anger and disgust swirled through me. I pushed them down. I couldn’t let myself show my contempt, my disgust, for my father and his actions.So many heinous acts. Allowing the nagas to take his own people as slaves. Murdering Sven and Kora’s family. The ominous kennel he had hidden in the realm of Faerie along with his Lodestone. His madness had to be stopped. He’d drown.
