Graphic Novel 9
Chapter 9:only the worthy bleeds
Kane returns from the Envy faction’s territory, shaken—he found no one there. Reporting to Lucien, he triggers a cascade of suspicions. Lucien, in his pride, deduces the Envy faction’s true scheme: infiltrating the other factions from within to destroy them unnoticed. Determined to act, he orders Kane to prepare for a meeting with all remaining sin factions.
Elsewhere, Aira faces a tense confrontation as the Lust leader delivers a sultry yet lethal warning to her and the Sloth leader—harm her subordinates, and it will mean war.
Meanwhile, Bjorn evades the Wrath faction with a cunning retreat, hiding inside the hollow roots of a massive tree deep in the forest. The Wrath leader, battered yet unyielding, orders his men to guard Bjorn’s abandoned treehouse site, certain his prey will return.
