Wrong Tower (Part 2)

"How am I supposed to believe someone I've never met?" Derek's paranoia ran rampant, making him doubt everything. "How can he expect me to believe such blatant lies? Someone entered my body last night just like Larry entered my mind now.

"Wrong." Ragnarök said. "You Lith. You master."

Derek wanted to question the blade's loyalty, but that name sounded awfully familiar.
