Seth was sitting bored in a room at the Blackwell Keep. He started thinking about how lame being a shadow healer is. He was seriously thinking about somehow becoming a shadow charmer again. The Alderfairy had pressured him into it, and he was annoyed now for letting her convince him. Then Kendra strolled in and started practicing making light flow out of her hand. It was blinding and annoying, and made Seth think of how as a shadow charmer he could darken the light as soon as it came out. He was a little grumpy all day, but at night, he made his move. He found the demon Talizar and eventually convinced him to tell him how to become a shadow charmer again. He needed to stab himself with the Unforgiving Blade, which happened to be located in a cave filled with trolls. He returned to the room, no one noticing he was gone. But tomorrow night, he was bringing the shadows back to their rightful master. The next night, Seth slaughtered the trolls with Vasilis and grabs the Unforgiving Blade. He takes a deep breath and mutters, "Shadow healing is lame.", and stabs. It causes lots of agony, and Seth collapses to his knees. He slowly raises himself back up, with a mischievous shadow glint back in his eyes. His wings turn shadow, and he mutters, "Ah, crud." He realizes Kendra will notice but he doesn't care. He returns to the room once again, awaiting the morning argument but prepares himself and is comforted by the shadows being back. He is rudely awakened and opens his eyes to Grandpa's stern face and Kendra violently glowing with light. Seth is blinded by Kendra's light, but waves his hand and shadows reduce the light back into her hand. Kendra is momentarily startled, then regains herself. Grandpa alerts Grandma, then alerts the Alderfairy. She is there before Seth even starts to argue. She teleports all of them to the Source and shoves Seth in. Only his wings flap and he catches himself overtop the Source. He draws his swords once the Alderfairy does. Seth uses his own magic to teleport them to the Void and duels. He finally puts the Alderfairy in a sword-lock, and she surrenders. Then they teleport back to the room at the keep. Seth had won, but where they going to keep challenging him?
