"I've warned you once," Ether stated sternly.
"It's alright. I owe them an explanation," Myranda said numbly.
And so she began to recount the tale, a tale that it is my great hope shall find its way to you as well. It begins where the others believed that Myranda's life had ended, in the lowest level of Demont's personal menagerie. Had I the strength, I would not rest until every last word was recorded. But alas, the years weigh heavily upon me. You have my word. When next my stylus is put to work, all that remains will be revealed. The truth is too important to be lost to the ages.
