Bab 50: The Final Hour Part 5

"Untrue. Are you not our king? Through your merit you raised our banners where we could not. You simply are not complete. Let me help you.."

Duth looked up in surprise. The conviction was uncalled for. This man had died not long ago, why did he have so much loyalty now?

The wight seemed to read his mind.

"My king, mortal men are ignorant. Even I myself had been. What I learned in death showed me that."

Duth signed..

"How, how can you help me?"

"I know how to strengthen you, to show you the application of raw mana. If you're willing, I can teach you before the end of your allies' battle."
