"Ashes to Blood." Shinok said as he look up from the book. He closes the book and toss itaside. "Well, Qian, how is our guest?" Shinok said as his blazing eyes turn to Qian. "Our guestis very comfortable." Qian said as he smirks. Shinok's finger trace along his throne. "We have the bait. Now, we just need Lui." Shinok said. "I don't believe Liu is part of the prohecy.,"Shinok look at him. "Yes, he is the Chosen. But I have reason to believe that Liu isn't Chosen One describe in the prohecy." Qian laughs. "It doesn't matter now. We have what we need. Infour days, heaven and hell will be mine. My hell. My world." Shinok smiles as the blazes ineyes become ice.

"Someone needs a landscaper for this place" Jennie said as she look the rugged, gloomyOutworld's landscape. "Outworld has been this way for thousands of year.
