"It will do you well not to underestimate that man. He might seem mellow, but he is stronger than you can ever hope to be. Now that Nova is on her feet, there is no reason for us to remain here. We will carry out the plan once Snow is gone. Make sure she does not leave this house before then. Our plans to draw her here all failed, so this might be the only chance that we get. Watch her closely."
The masked man nodded once before he stepped back and vanished into the shadow.
