(no, Eztli's just deep down in Sinka's consciousness, just like Sinka's in hers. They share a body and mind, that's why it messes with Eztli's sanity so much, they're just in sync while in the Abyss together, but Eztli can't get there without Sinka)<br/><br/>Paion sighed as she dropped out the window and took off after the stubborn wolf. She wasn't sure how exactly he thought he could do any thing in his current condition other than make matters worse if he passed out.<br/><br/>Sinka's tail thrashed and this time was able to dislodge Bran from her shoulders.

"You know, you'd probably be doing a lot better at this fight if it hadn't been for the little monster, but you just had to tell the boy to convince her to turn him. None of this would be happening if you'd just done it yourself."
