“What are you doing?” The moment Phaso managed to avert his eyes from Lith, he discovered he had been surrounded.

Feela, Zoreth, Aalejah, Solus, Lotho, and Menadion had assumed a six-pointed formation, forming a second smaller barrier with only Lith and Phaso inside.

“I wouldn’t do this if I were you.” The Horde snarled at the Tiamat, turning into what looked like a swarm of silvery droplets. “I’m not stupid. Not all of my body is here. Even if you destroy me, I’ll recover and join forces with your dear brother, Orpal.

“I know where he is, Verhen, just like I know your dirty little secrets.” The droplets formed two rows of shark-like metal teeth bent into a smile. “You have nothing to gain and everything to lose from making me into your enemy.

“Let me go and give me the fragment in your possession or I’ll put the knowledge of the World Tree at your brother’s service.”

“Nice bluff.” Lith scoffed. “Too bad the guy who gave me this fragment had a spine on top of a horrible sense of humor. The Sapling didn’t give in to the madness and told me their fragments contained the record of Mogar’s secrets and the perfected Forbidden Spells.

“The Sapling also told me each fragment is unique so the only thing that using my brother’s name just earned you is more suffering.”
