Mason wakes up covered in his own blood but alive. He looks around and notices that the graveyard near by looks to be the one next to his home. He tries to stand and but his legs are too weak. He sees a dead rabbit near by and crawls to its corpse. He drinks the blood but spits it out immediately. Mason shakes his head in disgust and screams, "What have they done to me!" In the distance a passerby hears him scream and runs to town and alerts the guards. The guards pick up the broken body of Mason and deliver him to Tripower hall. Mason is rushed to the healer, Finora and his wounds disappear. When he wakes up, he slowly gets up and starts to walk his clan hall. He noticed that the clan hall is silent. The only noise he hears are the chefs cooking and the guards chatting about the barmaids. No other clan mates in sight. He realizes how much Tripower has changed over the moons. Mason walks towards the guards and asks, "Why was there no one from our clan out to find me?" The guards just shrug their shoulders and go about their conversation of the barmaids. Mason shakes his head and heads toward the main entrance. When he steps foot outside the clan door he is hit in the back of the neck with a blunt object and falls to his knees. He turns around and noticed that it is his own guards! The guards pick him up and say, "They have weakened you and we have orders to kill you. You are of no use to Tripower." The guards repeatedly stab Mason with their swords, leaving his body in a pile of his own blood. "He's dead. No pulse, no breathing and no use for us. Let's finish the job and dispose of his body." One of the guard say. They pick up Mason's corpse and drag it to the highest cliff of Torregiano and throw it into he deep sea.
