Lind was exhausted but for once he had had no shortage of funds, materials, or help from any one in the Alliance. The Helion Trading Guild could not hide what happened and he already began to root out thralls in his own power.
They had been located in the far reaches but Fiends were long term monsters. Immediate losses meant nothing to them so long as the long term goals progressed. In a way, humans should learn that from them.

Lind Frey was a spirits sent answer to the problem.
Whatever else he was, his harmony stripped away any hope of hiding. The instant the Fiend Qi was touched by his harmonic Qi, it was transformed back to natural Qi. The result was instant on any thrall.
