Chapter Thirty-Four

The week after the incident at the Cube passed by in a blur. Diana spent the first day asleep, as did Bryant, recovering from the stress the potions put on their systems. The rest of the team had received treatment for scrapes and bruises, and Cara for her broken nose and cracked ribs. Tony texted her hourly to tease her and Anik sent an edible fruit arrangement.

Diana sensed that there was something between him and Cara but was not inclined to press for details. She wished happiness for all her people in whatever way they could find it. As long as it didn’t impede their ability to work, of course. His gift-giving inspired her, though, and she paid a Willen a necklace she rather liked to take one of the fruit baskets to Nylotte.

The fallout from the battle was beyond disappointing, and the only positive was the capture of some low-level thugs and the dispatching of Cresnan and Vincente.

Instead, she simply tried to make it clear that she was completely available to talk about it.

She’d entrusted Rath with a vital mission before leaving. After Vincente died, a twitching snake had emerged from his stomach and transformed to merely metal and gems, a beautiful item. She knew it was one of the prized Rhazdon artifacts the instant it appeared, and its presence explained a number of things and the tentacles, in particular. Her initial desire was to burn it immediately, but Bryant had cautioned her against it, as neither of them had any idea how to deal with it safely.

As it turned out, Rath did. He’d discussed it with someone named Emanuel, who had one in his possession already and considered it his calling to keep artifacts hidden and safe. The troll agreed to deliver it to the man. Diana’s first reaction was to think
