The Devil's Con

"...Think about it... if she cared so much for you, why would she want to leave?

I can't allow that. Not again. I would rather her end here as a happy memory for us to reminisce... 'The perfect Fel'! "

"Precisely."

Skotos returns a definite answer.

"And this was the same reason why you tried to kill mother...", mutters Gorak in consternation, trailing off in deep, bewildered thought.
