"Glemos had prepared an Awakened Fomor wife for me and he strongly believed that our child would have gained an independent Spirit Eye like Lith."

Morok didn't mention Garrik, preferring to keep him a secret from both the Council and the Hati Queen. The former might demand custody of the child due to his unique condition and Morok didn't want his half-brother to trade one prison from another.

The latter, instead, might have harmed the young Fomor in case the negotiations went awry.

"Talk about envy." Raagu clicked her tongue in annoyance. "Are you telling me that Fomors can really Awaken? Where is she now?"

"Yes, they can and their bloodline abilities are further strengthened as a result." Morok nodded. "Sadly, she died. Due to their unstable life force and core, Awakened Fomors can't survive without a Harmonizer, not even while above a mana geyser."

"I can vouch for that." Ryla said. "Glemos established the order of the high priestesses to try and mix the two bloodlines. He achieved several partial successes and he was still working on it when he died."

The Hati Queen's eyes went wide at those words, suddenly feeling deep compassion for the Warlord at the thought of what might have happened to her and her children.

"I see." Raagu was clearly disappointed. "Still, it's good news. It means that Fomor can Awaken and become full members of the Council. We only need to find a cure for them. Feela?"

The Behemoth felt hurt and shocked by the manipulation of the Tyrant bloodline.

To make matters worse, Raagu's newfound zeal irked her to no end. The human was shamelessly asking her for help in a deal that would make the beasts lose a powerful bloodline.

"I haven't changed my mind." The Behemoth snorted. "The warg and Hati are still under my protection. Also, I propose not to reveal the truth about the Tyrants until we have a solid lead about how to further human evolution.

"Otherwise beasts would reject the Tyrants and some of your kin might look for a shortcut. We have had enough Forbidden Magic with Thrud for a lifetime and we've already lost too many people.

"We can't afford an internal struggle that might further reduce our numbers. The colonization of Jiera is nigh and we need to act as a united front. Any internal division would favor the Undead Corts and ruin the hard work done so far to eradicate them."

"Agreed." Raagu enthusiastically nodded. "I'm sure that with a little persuading Lotho will vote with us to protect the ogres. I was also thinking about keeping all Balors and Fomors in Garlen to keep them safe.

"After all, their reproduction cycle is slow compared with other monsters.""Thanks, but no thanks." Urhen stepped forward. "Our colony survived only because we shared our talents and resources. Without Balors, trolls would age quickly and goblins would be little more than cannon fodder.

"To you, we are different races descending from beasts, elves, humans, and even Odi, but to us, we are all the same. My people have already enjoyed preferential treatment under Glemos and I won't let the others fight and die for us."

"Damn, I've known you for just a few minutes and I already like Balors more than humans. Involution my ass. What they lack in magic they more than make up for it in spirit." Feela clicked her tongue while glaring at Raagu.
