It had been a week since leaving North mansion. The mission was war on the elder realm for abusing power and stealing Elias North. Progress for that goal was at a standstill.
This was due to a few reasons. First was that Sam, in his capacity as South could not order his Limon to fight for any reason that would primarily benefit those on the side of the light.
The elders had very little influence in the demon realms which made attacking them not beneficial to the dark. If he tried to do so anyway, many would try to overthrow him.
Sam worried that they might send him into the crucible to test that he hadn't been corrupted. Sam explained that he needed to be at least sixty percent demon to survive the crucible which he wasn't anymore.
Afton tested him three days ago while they were discussing what to do and he was less than fifty-five percent. Megan really had changed him. He had been around seventy-two percent dark the day that he trapped Gabriel in Tetra.
