Murniker arrives at the Reed Flute Cave after extracting it's location from Aiden's mind, they had just sensed Akralianna assume Kara's form and attacked Aiden. They contact each other telepathically.

Murniker: "Do not engage, we'll leave soon Akralianna..."

Akralianna: "Did you find the gravesite?"

Murniker: "Yes..."

Murniker disassembles the dirt and unveils Laozi's corpse to her surprise the body hasn't even started the process of necrosis.

Murniker: "How bizzare, the body hasn't decomposed a bit! this is a 3 months old corpse... Akralianna?"

A sudden sensation of doom strikes Murniker's core, as the hyperventilation begins, this can only mean one thing... That Akralianna has met her demise.

Murniker: "THAT IS NOT POSSIBLE!! OH NO! AKRALIANNA!"

Murniker quickly pulls out the Heaven Squadron issued device and starts recording a message to send to the Empire.

Murniker: "Hear me, Council of the Squadrons, Akralianna has been killed.. At the hands of a mortal of their own creation, I've never seen or heard of this happening to any of our troops, Akralianna was the key to our mothership so my departure from this world is impossible, and this civilization has not yet invented the means to travel in hyperspace.. I am stuck, I call for thy for help and reinforcements, please summon our finest members of The Trinity Squadrons, and come deliver me from him.. He will attempt to kill me.. His name is Aiden Connor Moore, Help me!"

Murniker quickly sends the message through space to the Erragon Star System, it resides in a galaxy hundreds of thousands of light years away from Earth, Murniker performs the Undoing of Serigniya ritual on the corpse of Laozi, tiny red bolts of lightning begin to seep out of Laozi as Murniker quickly absorbs all of it, the ritual has concluded and Laozi's immortality is officially undone.

Murniker: "The message will take a while to reach the headquarters, I should find Kara Ashwinder.. Her and Aiden have a bit of history, maybe my salvation lies with her."

Murniker still in the form of Aiden transforms back to their original lightform, she summons the soil once again to properly bury Laozi but to her surprise his heart started beating.

Murniker: "What in Heaven's name!"

Murniker delivers a shock to Laozi's brain where he wakes up in terror. they quickly assume Laozi's form to prepare for conversation.

Laozi: "什么鬼!!我在哪里!"

Murniker: "你在桂林,在你的总部,已经有很长时间没用这个语言了!"

Laozi: "Guilin! What the hell are you!? Why do you look identical to me!?"

Murniker: "What is the last thing you remember Laozi Zhang?"

Laozi: "You're the one who granted my mother her wish..."

Murniker: "Yes.. Now answer my question."

Laozi: "The Almighty... He... Killed me! How is that possible!?"

Murniker: "I can sense him coming our way he's nearly here, I'm going to slow your heartbeat down to the minimum he cannot know you are alive still or he'll kill you for certain this time, lie near the grave."
