This is not the first time Edwin was seeing a ritual in his life. He has seen many and sometimes he has even performed them. But those rituals were done for good causes. And the one that was happening before him was to bring out the era of destruction. Edwin didn't know what it meant—but when the Serpent King read the dark prophecy, he was enlightened by it. The Incubus named Aaron is the chosen one for this and this ritual was going to give him immense power.
Edwin realized that he had to stop this ritual at any cost. If this ritual was going to bring destruction to the people in his land, then he has to do anything and everything to stop this. But how could he do that?! He can't fight against these four people. Two of them are serpents and one of them is the mighty Fae King. He can defeat the Incubus easily, yet he will be doomed either way by the other three. They are so much stronger than him!
