The other cultists followed the Gnome through the portal silently while Ras turn to leave when Leena slapped him. "You hate Vyre as much as the rest of your sisters, if not more, why do you want her happy? If I killed Ashia she'd have found someone else to occupy her time. And I know you've seen the markings on Ashia's back, you know as well as I do that she's a ticking timebomb waiting to go off in this city. I'm still going to kill Ashia, and if I have to run Vyre through in the process then so be it, but you can't protect the dragon from me and her son is already in deeper trouble than he knows.
