"Now, I shall tell you a story. Once there was a wandering female arcaniss. She had been thrown out of her nest because her power was feared by the queen, even though she would never use it against others.

"Lost, lonely, and afraid, she flew from place to place looking for a home. One day, she found another arcaniss that was somehow trapped by humans. He was kind and gentle and she soon became enchanted by him. His name should have a warning for her for it meant to betray. She freed him and together they flew off together into the sunset.

"A few years later, she laid her first clutch. When he was out hunting, a human came and smashed each one of their eggs in the nest. She had been out for a flight oblivious to the threat. When she returned, she saw him staring at her with pure hatred in his eyes. He fought her and threw her around. When he raised his claw for the killing strike, she teleported away and ended up here and has been here ever since.

"I am the she and he is Chian or Mildew." "Why are the two of you on the same island?" Asked Astrid. "We both had made homes here with the humans before either of us knew the other was here and so we mutually decided to leave each other alone." "Yes, now we must destroy him, for he has meddled in the lives of others."
