Ingressus fled the scene, escaping with three of the four Prime Songs. After the funerals had been held and new Masters appointed, Riza had trouble sleeping. Why did Ingressus steal the Primes? Why did he spare Master Aegus? What is he planning on doing now?

Achillean seemed to notice this.

"Here," he offered her a few pills (don't do drugs, kids) and said, "I take these when I have trouble sleeping."

She gratefully accepted the pills and downed them with some water. Achillean had been looking restless as well, pacing back and forth and thinking...

She was in the Nether, in where looks like a throne room. Ghasts were making their scary noises and Netherlands guards lined the way to their king's throne, upon which sat King Chronos. Two more Netherans stood at the base of the throne, one holding a large battle are that looked too big to carry. She couldn't see how someone ever fought with that. There was the sound of the door opening. She turned and saw Ingressus. She went to hug him, ask what he was doing there, when he began talking. Or at least, his mouth was moving. She couldn't hear a word he was saying. The same went for Chronos. All she could hear was the bubbling lava pits and their steps as they moved forward and shook hands.

She woke up and saw Achillean watching her.

"That's weird. Sleeping pills usually have a longer effect. What did you dream about?"

She told him everything.
