Shendu’s unmoving stone visage sits on the wall in the middle of, his current lackey, Valmont’s office. His eyes glow red, showing that he is still awake even at such a late hour.

His mind is elsewhere, remembering past events and fuming at the numerous humiliations he has suffered.

Curse that Chi Wizard! If not for him, I would not be reduced to this lesser form and would not be forced to rely on such incompetent lackeys! Curse him!
