Get off my ship,” Venganza declared, her tone sharp and impatient.Maleek frowned, brow furrowing as he scanned the alien landscape. “Where do I go from here?” he asked, uncertainty slipping into his voice.“Must I show you everything?” she snapped, a scowl tightening her already cold features.“Well, shit!

However…” He paused, lifting the blade and letting its weight settle in his hand before resting it against his shoulder. “Before I execute you, I will parade your broken, near-dead body through the fire temples. The clergy shall see the cost of rebellion. You will not be remembered as a martyr—only as a failure. Your death will be slow, and your shame will be eternal.”As he unsheathed the blade with a ceremonial twist, ancient runes etched into the black metal lit up in brilliant orange. Th

Maleek's panic seeped into his words. "Why the distress? You are better off without the dead weight," Venganza retorted, his tone icy. "You're probably thrilled I won't be getting the Mikaelium elemental energy," Maleek accused bitterly. Venganza chuckled darkly. "You let that hot-headed fool dictate your actions. Surprising, considering you're usually one to grasp victory when it's within reach.""I'm not, but did you hear Shangus? He's furious for saving you, something I don't recall doing!"
