Athena led me to the Prison of Elders: A place for all minions and champions of Darkness are captured by the Queen. Fallen, Hive, Vex, and Cabal.
Athena takes out a key card and swipes it on the side of an Eliksni door, like the ones you'd see on a Fallen Ketch.
When the door opens, I see Mara and Variks standing in front of Skolas. Skolas was restrained on a cellar of some sort.
"I'm not believing it," said Mara.
"I don't convince," said Variks. "I speak in their tongue for you."
When we were halfway walking towards them, Variks turned around, but Mara had her eyes burned towards Skolas.
"Ah... the Guardian of Devils, yes?" He told me.
It took me a moment to figure out why he called me that. It was because of my House of Devils Cloak.
"Come, come. Skolas wishes to speak with you... alone."
"Why speak with her?" Mara asks Skolas.
Variks translates in Eliksni.
"I want the one who chained me, but spared me to hear my warning," Variks translates for Skolas.
"Warning?" I ask. I stare at Skolas, wondering what he was up to.
"Skolas wishes to be alone with the Guardian he said," Variks implied.
The Queen sighed, then left, telling Athena to follow her. Athena obeyed and left. It was just me, Variks, and Skolas.
"Tell me, why do you want me?" I ask Skolas.
Variks translates, then Skolas replies, then Variks translates to me what he said.
"He knows you seek Hive God... Crota."
"How does he know?" Said Nolan.
Skolas speaks again, and Variks translates.
"He was told. He was released because of Guardian path. Crota dies, very bad for House Banner. And for Machine."
"Machine?" I ask.
"Big glowing ball," he replied. "Tiny stars as well."
"I think what he's referring to is the Traveler," Nolan said. "And I'm not tiny star!" He added.
"This doesn't make sense," I mumble. "How would Skolas know all this ahead of time before it happened? Vex tech? No, that wouldn't make sense. He only used time to pull Fallen out..." at this point, I was just monologging and pacing back and forth slowly.
"Queen is blind by traitorous feeling, yes?" Said Variks. "I think we take word from Kell tongue."
"Are you saying we should believe him?" I ask.
"Indeed. Skolas has none to lose. Kell only wishes to unite Fallen House, not take over City."
It made sense. "Okay, I believe it,"I said.
"What?! Are you serious?" Nolan exclaimed.
I stare at him. "Whether if it's a trick or not, we'll take it under consideration. If something, somewhere is out there coming for us because of what I did, then they can come get me because I'm still going to kill Crota. I don't care if it's another Hive God, or a higher being. Hell, it could be Crota's father and I still won't care!"

I ranted on and calmed down. Eris wanted me to do some other chores for her by killing off some of the Hive generals. One of them was Omnigul.
Omnigul will be my next thing to do later on. Maybe today or tomorrow. But now Ravenclaw meets with me at my room, wanting to apologize about what happened back at Palamon. I forgave her, but in my mind it's something that unforgivable. When she stepped out, she stumbled upon Athena and almost tripped.
"Hey! Watch it!" Said Athena with an irritated voice.
"Relax, I didn't hurt you," Raven replied.
"But you could've!" Athena snapped.
"I'd watch who you're yelling at," Raven Said calmly.
"Or what?!" She barked.
Raven's eyes burned down at her with such fire in her narrowed eyes. "Or I'll have you burned to a crisp in the blink of an eye," she threatened.
On the side, Athena clenched her fists and was provoked to strike a punch.
I pop my eyes with such craze on me and waved my arms around, flailing behind Raven, warning her to stop. I acted crazy to warn her to stop. It was like one of those moment where you really shouldn't do something because if you did, you'd probably be dead.
"You won't. I've been getting stronger and stronger. And with this, (First Curse) you'll be messing with the wrong person," Athena said.
Ravenclaw sighed so quietly that I only heard it. She then grabbed Athena by the neck, choking her.
"Listen little prick. You're messing with the wrong person on the wrong day," Ravenclaw growled. "I will destroy you. You hear me? I'm not afraid to kill you and your little Ghost. And it wouldn't be my first time."
