Interlude

During their meeting with Maurits about the Black Mist, Thyra comes in yelling at Shirley. She starts complaining more and questions why she couldn't have been the Merines instead, Shirley tells her "that power is not something you wish on another". Senel goes up to Thyra explaining that Shirley didn't forget her duties or the Ferines, this causes the entire party to start insulting her calling her selfish and childish. Senel reveals to Thyra that although Fenimore was afraid of Orerines she still accepted him and his friends. Thyra could not believe Senel and gets upset and leaves the meeting room. Shirley chases after her to Fenimore's grave.

After Shirley goes to Fenimore's grave, Thyra's hate for Shirley and her friends caused a monster infected by the black mist to appear before her.
