Leader Daniel finally turned to the hooded man who had accompanied us, his gaze serious but filled with a sense of purpose. "This is Shadow," Daniel said, gesturing toward the man. "He was assigned to Bran Fortress with a crucial task."
Shadow stepped forward, his hood still partially concealing his features, though his presence was commanding. "I was tasked with infiltrating Akasha and Margaret," Shadow explained. "When we received word that Emmet and Maxwell were heading into Bran Fortress, we alerted you to expect them."
The pieces of the puzzle were starting to fall into place. Shadow's role had been more integral than I had initially realized. He had been in the heart of the danger, working undercover to gain information and influence within Akasha and Margaret.
"Shadow assisted Emmet and Maxwell in their escape from Bran Fortress," Daniel continued. "He managed to get them out safely before the Sith Dragons set the fortress ablaze."
