From within the veil, Lakirk’s brow rose in recognition.

Falcon stumbled back. “What are you doing here?”

The mayor’s son flashed a grin. “Oh, it’s you. I knew you coming to K’vitch would prove troublesome.”

“Lakirk? But why?” stuttered Faith as she landed behind Falcon. “These are the children of the village. The same village your father is mayor of.”

Lakirk tossed the cloak aside, revealing a patch of untamed hair. His eyes darted back and forth between Falcon and Faith as he licked his lips. “Please. That failure is no father of mine.”

“His mind is broken,” said Falcon. “Who knows what kind of dark arts he’s been dwelling in.”

Lakirk cackled loudly as he clutched his stomach. “Oh no, not darkness. I serve something far greater.”

“Greater?” echoed Falcon, taking a step forward. Perhaps he could slowly close the distance between them and put an end to this madness.

Lakirk held up his index finger and moved it side to side. “Stay back, Rohad. If you make another move I’ll cut these roots and you can say goodbye to the poor children, including your little friend.”

Falcon froze, noticing the blue tubes permeating from each of the crystals. The blue lines all led to a dark corner of the cave. “Where do those roots go to? What are you hiding?”

“I sense life-energy inside those tubes,” said Faith. “You’re sucking it from the children, aren’t you?”

Lakirk’s eye’s twitched. “Clever little girl.” He turned to Falcon as he scratched his flaky skin. “Much smarter than this brute friend of yours. But it makes no difference. In a minute he’ll be back, and everyone in Va’siel will be no more.”

Falcon thought back to the injured Volcseck. Could it be that Lakirk was using the children’s life force to heal that monster?

Lakirk’s hands trembled as he reached for the air. “Yes. Yes. Back. Back. Back. The true master back.”

“I knew it,” said Falcon. “You’re aiding Shal-Volcseck.”

Lakirk’s hands shot down. “You truly are an idiot, aren’t you? I serve the true lord of chaos, not that cheap imitation you call Volcseck.”

True lord of chaos?

“I can tell by that look on your face that you’re still confused.” Lakirk tilted his jittery head to the side. “And people say I’m stupid.”

“Stop with the riddles and get to the point,” Falcon ordered, anger boiling within him. “There is only one chaos wielder in Va’siel, everyone knows that.”

“That’s what I thought too.” He held up his head in grandiose fashion as he paced between the crystals. “But then his voice came to me one night. He awoke me from my ignorance and gave my insignificant life a purpose.”

“And what was that?” asked Faith. “To kidnap children and kill them?”

“More or less. The energy of children is the purest there is, and it’s also the easiest to control. That makes it ideal for my father to return from his long slumber.”

“You’re just a pawn,” said Falcon, taking another step forward. That was the third step he had taken without Lakirk noticing. If he could just keep him talking, then perhaps he still had a chance to close the gap and save the children.
