== Plot ==
Hezekiah prepares for a resurrection while Banshee gains a meeting with the Saints.
== Synopsis ==
An unknown figure is dragging the unconscious Vargas to a safe location. They wrap a corner and stumble into 3 S.W.A.R.M. soldiers. They whip out two crossbows and pins two of them to the ground but the other starts to run. Thinking quick they draw Vargas’ rifle and fires at the third guy, taking him to the ground and gets above him, pinning him as well. However, one of the others pinned down blows a horn, alerting any nearby soldiers to them. Hezekiah arrives in the city of Bertiona, also in the midst of battle. He spots his target and knows Singula’s information was correct. The Prota tribe is here. He summons his berserkers and the hunt is on. 
With the S.W.A.R.M. soldiers closing in, the figure takes the flight path and tosses Vargas over their shoulders, running away and getting him against a tree, standing above him and in chameleon-like fashion hiding them. Qing Shu passes by them, tripping over the figure’s foot briefly but assuming it is a tree root and continuing the search. The S.I.L.E.N.C.E. passes beneath the bridge of Southwatch and into Tradesmen’s Bay, porting at the north end. Saint Ibis exits the ship with Banshee and Aurora close behind. They walk towards Radis and easily spot the meeting spot. Harvest is guarding the building. They leave Aurora outside with the Minotaur and enter the room. Inside is Elbije and Jenella yelling at each other while Wroth takes a nap in his chair. Elbije knocks his feet down demanding he pull back his army and discuss this without anymore bloodshed. He ignores her. The room goes quiet when Banshee interjects, asking for his reason for destroying the tunnels that thousands of people depended on. He gets no answer but Jenella steps up to him and lets him know he doesn’t really get to speak here. He backhands her and Wroth warns his brother that if his man speaks out of turn again, he expects him to be punished but Banshee cuts him off so Wroth pulls his gun on him but Banshee stands his ground. Wroth shoots off Jenella’s hand so as not to waste a draw and warns once more that the disrespect is exactly why he is taking this continent by force. He leaves, Jenella close behind. Banshee sits in his chair and begins to speak to the others about his true plan. 
Hezekiah has been having a grand old time eliminating the Prota. He comes face-to-face with a whip-wielding one that gives him quite a bit of trouble but he is still able to quickly dispose of them. He receives a message from Jenella that states “Wroth is getting peeved, the time to strike is soon”. His job done; he heads out towards the Dragon Tomb. Meanwhile, the person handling Vargas manages to safely evade the soldiers. And gets the former king to his little cubby within a few bushes and rocks. They rest his rifle across him and leaves. As they are walking, they spot a mythical Elk in a clearing. This is something they have been searching for but the being runs away, ending up behind them and charging into their back. The figure is able to use the momentum to get onto the Elk’s back, speaking to it in celestial that they mean it no harm. It only believes that mortals always wish to harm but it has no choice being here. The other planes are crumbling. It charges at a tree that the figure jumps off, the Elk vanishing into the forest. Their hood drops to reveal ghost white skin and hair. 
Hezekiah arrives at the tomb, Singula on his shoulder. It takes him numerous tries but he eventually gets the pronunciation correct and the resurrection begins. Banshee and Ibis exit the building, The Saint telling him there are no more favors. Harvest leaves as well, realizing he was left behind. Banshee informs Aurora that everything is going according to plan and they head back towards Aethel. Hezekiah is riding the Golden Blaze back home, falling asleep when Singula informs him of a message from Jenella. He tells her it doesn’t matter anymore and goes to bed.
