[Forest of Moore - An Ancient and acursed forest surrounding the Western perimeter of Rahmanus. It is the home of Bonnie's resting place. Clyde stands over the unmarked grave where she has been put to rest]


Clyde Arrowny: It has been a while since I came to visit my love. It took a lot of strength to return here but I felt a visit was overdue, it has been 2 years. I went to pay your father a visit before coming here... He claimed his life weeks after your death... I'm sorry, I'm trying. Just know that I am really trying ok? I will set things right for you and your father. I hope you are safe wherever you may be and I understand you may not approve of what I've let myself become but know this, I will join you, I will come to you once I see things through.


Shadow #1: Go to her?


Shadow #2: Or go to us?


[Clyde goes silent momentarily, he remembers the deal he made with the shadows. His soul is theirs upon his death, he cannot join Bonnie even if he wanted to]


Clyde Arrowny: I may never see her again but I will not let their deaths be in vain. There were many choices I could have made, many paths to take. I took one traveled by little. The result would have been the same. I have accepted that but that doesn't mean that for a second I will allow those who took away all I love walk free.


Shadow #1: But will you find him?


Shadow #2: He who drew her last breath.


Shadow #3: The immortal...


Clyde Arrowny: I will. I will hunt him down relentlessly, I will slaughter his friends, his followers, his family, his loved ones. I will draw him out and I will kill him. The dead will have their justice, they cry for it.


Shadow #1: You have backed out so many times already, two years have passed and only three immortals have died by your hand.


Shadow #2: Do you have the strength?


Shadow #3: The strength to see it through...


[Clyde looks down at his finger examining the ring]


Clyde Arrowny: I do now.
