How It All Goes Down
Pressia (Promise Me)
- As Pressia's horse is galloping along the path, she comes up to Bradwell and El Capitan; they look like a three-headed groupie.
- She takes El Capitan's knife and searches for a root. She finds it, and the vines start to come loose.
- El Capitan is able to stagger away, but Bradwell is in bad shape. There's too much blood.
- Pressia is beside herself; she can't let Bradwell die.
- But he's dying, and he doesn't want any help from her. He seems at peace.
- But Pressia, who still has selfish tendencies, does what we all wish she wouldn't do. She takes some of the serum from the vials and injects him with it.
- Yeah, and she injected the birds in his back too. Hmm: we wonder how that's going to turn out.
- The chapter ends with Bradwell writhing in pain — alive — but with six wings ferociously fluttering on his back.
- From what we can infer here, it looks like Pressia gave him humongous wings.
- He basically looks like a dragon.
