Into the Abyss

Xel'Kazur hung limply in his divine bindings, his once-mighty presence reduced to a husk of its former self. Standing before him with Kali and Amaterasu at his side, Jack contemplated his next move.

"So, what do we do with him?" Kali mused, cracking her knuckles. "I'd rather not waste the effort killing him if he can be useful."

Amaterasu smirked, her golden eyes glowing faintly. "He's already broken. We could strip his power entirely, make him a mere shadow of what he was. He would be a reminder to others who think themselves untouchable."

Jack studied the broken necromancer, tilting his head slightly. "No. He's going to help us."

Xel'Kazur let out a low, bitter laugh. "You think I would serve you? You who mock me?"

Jack grinned, kneeling in front of the bound god. "Oh, you will. But not because I asked. Because I will it."
