Cleansing the council

Seth lifted Panther from the ground, smiling at her as he said: “There’s no need for you to do that. I’m content to know that you’re alright. How are things in the Curse Kingdom?”

“My source can now freely contain the horrors inside. Also, now that my core crumbled, the spread of death inside it is meaningless. I’ve already killed the ones doing death favors deep underground.”

“That’s good. It might still take time until I can take care of those horrors and free you from your watch. Can you please hold on for a while longer?”

“Now that I don’t have to worry about my lifespan, keeping them contained won’t be an issue. Do you want me to help you fight the death armies? I can spare some of my energy if you want.”

“No need. I already have a plan to strike back. You can return to Curse. Also, pay Andrea a visit. She was worried about you. No matter what, don’t return to the Council for a while, and don’t spread your energy north. Avoid death territory entirely.”
