“We still need to figure out what to do with all of them,” Theo reminded us. I looked at the crowd of shapeshifters in the temple with us and back at Larog. I wanted to gauge how much of a loss this would be to him but he did not seem to be affected by it. I knew he was pretending though because he was tapping his small finger against the pillar closest to him. However, I could also tell it was not enough to disrupt his plans.

“We should burn them. They are worthless criminals…”

“Larog, how can you be so…” one of them started to say and before either I or Theo could react Larog had cut his head off.

“What was that about? He knew your name?” I quipped. I was not surprised but I acted like it.

“Do you think there's a shapeshifter impersonating you? You could be in danger. We should have you here, protected in the palace just to be…”

“I am fine. I have been a spy all my life. I can handle someone impersonating me, it could even turn out to be an advantage,” was his quick response.
