Chapter 15 - Hylin in light

Seronn was ready to hang and so did the Xenon warriors. He was still smiling and Eldreya could no longer stand his guts. He then noticed something in the women who were in the trusks and also the queen. They had a mark on their faces. Hylin? he wondered. He was so clearly smitten by Eldreya that he could not see anyone's face except hers. Do you have any last wishes? she asked him. Yes, replied Seronn. What is that? asked the queen. Kill Zeus, he said simply. And he really did want to kill Zeus back then, as he has always done so. The queen was shocked. Kill Zeus, she stammered. Yes, he said. After all he is the one that keeps you in darkness, is he not? He asked her. The queen kept silent. How do you know who i was, she asked him. Perhaps, what you still are, replied Seronn. And for a second, she felt shame. That she has abandoned her own kind in search of freedom. Get him down! she said to them. They were all released. What brings you here? she asked him. I wanted to kill her, she said looking at Eldreya. What? Said the queen. Why? She asked him. Who are you? She asked him. I'am the dark lords ally, he said. They were all frightened. The xenon warriors got their swords out which were invisible now. Be at rest! said Seronn to them. They put their swords down. But the hatred of Zeus is more than the loyalty of the dark lord, he said. What can we do for you? asked the queen. I will tell you when the time comes, he said.
