Remnants of the Sanctum Vol 2

I had been chosen to go. I should have seen it coming. I rather did. After all, it was I who had earned the honor of my people when I slaughtered the invader-King and sparked this war. Now it would be my task to calm the Jungle itself and save our missing people. The council voted, and C'Zanil stood there smugly as the decision came down. I could have said no.
