Ethan looked back at Vel´Kha´Lems. "I thought you would attack me."
"I am still intrigued by what you are," the Lich replied, his glowing eye sockets fixed on Ethan. "I can still smell the Void Nightmare bloodline inside you, but there is another lineage alongside it that is equal or perhaps even more powerful. I do not understand. I have never heard of anything so powerful."
Ethan walked over to the central altar and sat down casually on one of the large stone steps. "And if I am a human? Will you kill me?"
"I do not see any fear in you," Vel´Kha´Lems countered, his skull tilting. "You could have maintained your nightmare form and left this place, yet you revealed yourself. Why, human?"
"I have plans for your army," Ethan said flatly. "I do not possess the power to break your seal and free you right now, but I can help you massacre everything on the surface. I have my own objectives, and it turns out your goals do not interfere with mine. I can help you."
