   Summary

   Betrayed not once but twice, Narinder receives mercy from the Lamb following his defeat. He will bide his time for a chance at revenge, even if it takes another thousand years.

   Lambert decides to take a page out of Narinder's book and become someone willing to wait. They will befriend the now-furious god they fell for, even if it takes a thousand years.

   Too bad the Mystic Seller had to drop a boulder into still water. The Bishops get involved in their lives once more, and Narinder only gets more enraged as one by one they make their reappearance. And like some leech taking a ride for the fun of it, a disgusting illness sneaks its way into his mind.
