So Phaeroh's been absorbing aer, too.
Is he trying to restabilize it?

We owe him one for keepin' the fight up this long.

No, I don't think that's it.

My guess is he's taking in all that aer
to disable Zaude's power source.

That way he'll be able to mess with
Alexei's plans, right?

Right. ...Right, Judith?

...Who, me? What was the question?

...Never mind.

It'll be easy if we can just get inside.
We'll stop everything in one shot.

Wish it were that easy, kid. But we'll be
up to our ears in traps and royal guards.

Gotta admire his confidence.

...Do you really mean that?

...Phaeroh... Please be okay...
