After slaughtering the ants Ezekiel left to find other trees since these clearings would be full of creatures to kill just like before.
It did not take long to track down another clearing which he found to be full of beasts in a death match with one another.
The dead were dragged into the nest of the ants while the rest simply fought.

Eventually he managed to obtain the affinity, he had lost more than twenty five percent of his health however.
Now he could put his plan into motion.
