'Did it actually see into the past, did it realize that we would swear an oath and was helping us by giving Shadow the mission?'

"Yes, but luckily for you, there is an easy way to go around that, heh, those bastards probably never thought that it wasn't enough for only two of you to swear an oath." Aethion suddenly chuckled before speaking, prompting Reign to show a dangerous smile on his face, one that creeped out Shadow and the others.

"Hello kids, it's been a while." Aethion's voice suddenly echoed in the heads of Shadow and the others, causing them all to stare at Reign with confusion.
