Rashnov paced back and forth in Rheynoak's room as he waited for the rest of the leaders to arrive. His body was badly battered and bruised and his hands and face were caked with blood and scars from the attack, but his heart was still ablaze with the adrenaline of the events that had occurred only hours ago.

Lying on the bed unresponsive was Raebar Casvionel, the great leader himself. His body was still drenched in blood and he had lost most of his strength from deteriorating for so long, but his body was still carved with the marks of his accomplishments.

It has been five days since the attack on Elsavior. Ever since then, it has been a treacherous road to gather the necessary ingredients needed for the resurrection. Finding the immortal beings who were willing to perform the ceremony was hard enough and contacting the other tribe leaders to let them know of the resurrection of their leader was a tedious job

Even more so, the body had to be prepared, cleansed, blessed and rested for three days before the ritual could take place.

However, he was their last hope. Their only hope. Rashnov only prayed that Rheynoak would not be essential for resurrecting his father back to his former glory.

A knock sounded on the door before it creaked open and in stepped Irene, her tresses flowing behind her. Following close on her heel was Heather and Arsen Regbay, and Caldwin Tundris who had returned from their tribes to join them once again upon hearing the reincarnation of Reaebar would be taking place today. "Great news. We found exactly who we need for the reincarnation of Raebar on the desert tribes. We don't need Rheynoak" Heather announced.

A sigh of relief came from Rashnov's lips, darting over to Arsen and Caldwin. "Arsen, Caldwin. Have you contributed towards this reincarnation as well?" Rashnov asked. They both nodded exchanging looks with one another. "We will be participating in the ceremony. Caldwin will provide dark magic since he is experienced, and I will contribute the blood sacrifice."

"I have also found a hell siphon, a witch, and an Elementalist on the tribal grounds to assist us" Irene commented, going out into the hallway and pulling them into the room. The tribe members stumbled into the room; confused expressions worn on their faces. "Rashnov, this lovely gentleman here is Faex. He is a cross between a SilverClaw Witch and a Fae. His magic is strong enough to channel for the ceremony."

Rashnov nodded at the young boy with copper hair and tanned skin. He seemed unfazed, perhaps even ready for this commitment that might get him killed. He nodded his head at him, respecting his dedication to sign his death wish. His eyes moved over to the tall, lanky blonde with green eyes and dark skin. "This is Raevin. She is a full-blooded hell siphon and has aided in several reincarnations in her long years." She bowed her head towards him, simply nodding. "An honor to assist you, Rashnov."

"The honor is all mine, Raevin" he responded, smiling at her willingness to assist in bringing back the greatest threat to the Inner Circle and all Asxairo. "And this, dear Rashnov is Iresil. She is one of the few Elementalist on the tribal grounds and has worked with Rheynoak and Onyx before, so she has a good idea on how their minds work."
