The Undead Commander's response was a raw outpouring of his motivations, a narrative of loss and vengeance. "I... I... I only wanted revenge. These DEMONS! They took everything from me. My family, my sense of self. And this world too. I only wanted power to make them PAY!" Tears, a surprising show of emotion from such a being, streamed down his face, revealing the depth of his anguish.
Lenny, in response, wielded his white flames, not as a weapon, but as a purifier. The flames danced around the purple stone, stripping away the corruption that tainted it. "Trust me, I understand your pain. But there are incredible forces at play here, and your pain is only their tool..."
As the white flames worked their magic, the stone transformed, shedding its dark hue for the clear, serene blue of a sapphire.
