Summary
For all the Shadow Lord's training, he does not understand how parents are meant to treat their children. Dain never learns the line between 'discipline' and 'cruelty.'
This means, of course, no matter how good Dain is at acting, he still manages to set off every one of Doom's warning flags, just not in the way he expected.

Summary
3-15 was not a perfect Ol. It had once thought that, with its ability to remain undetected within the resistance.
Then it had made a mistake. It told its Master about the identities of The Three, and who the captives were. Of course, it was punished for its disobedience, even if it was done for its Master's sake.
It was not a perfect Ol, because the morning before the ceremony, meant to find the Heir that 3-15 was pretending to be, it disobeyed again.
