The Shifted Target

[ALANOR]

Seeing the young Wynter so broken and lost made the warlocks and the trio feel like they had successfully managed to be useless.

Nothing they had done had given him any comfort and no matter what they were doing right now, no matter how things were for them and the kid, they knew it would take a while before Alanor rebooted. Maybe all they had to do was just wait, right?

"It… it hurts, when I remember," Alanor said defeatedly after a long silence.

He had been hiding too much in, and even though he had brought down the first, he could still feel his anger resurfacing. Alanor knew he would take them all pay, he would ruin them all, even if that was the last thing he did himself.
