Alexa was trembling, curled up almost in the corner. "I-I'm sorry. I lied to you."

Jhaena could feel goosebumps going up her neck. "What do you mean? Lied to us? Tell me, or you will suffer, I promise you that."

She sniffled a little. "There is one other pendant to get into the secret laboratory. It belonged to Lord Everling's only son, Ollix."

"And where can I find Ollix?"

"Damn you, Alexa!"

Jhaena and the Ebon Mask both spun around. Behind them was another figure of mist. "You swore you'd never tell anyone!"

"I'm sorry, Ollix. But I won't let you force me into any more of your twisted experiments! You're just like father was..."

"No, not quite like father was. He never hit you as hard as I'm going to!"

As Ollix's mist coalesced into a more cohesive ghost form, Jhaena stepped in between him and Alexa. "Stop now, spirit, and I may let you walk free."

Ollix chuckled. "So you're Alexa's heroine? You shouldn't be too much trouble."

Ollix darted forward, and Jhaena raised her shield. The ghost bounced off of it. Instead, it veered to the side, right into the Ebon Mask.

He twitched about for a moment, then his eyes glowed blue and he spoke in Ollix Everling's voice. "Very well. We'll do it like this."
