Chapter 4 Disturbing Revelations
Character Cynder
"So your real name is John," Cynder reaffirmed to the Chief, "and you and this Cortana have been fighting a war against a group of aliens for years."
"Yeah that's about the sum of it," said John.
"I still don't understand this Cortana," said Spyro, "is she a ghost or something?"
John sighed, "No she is a …"
"Yes she is a ghost," Cynder interjected quickly then aside to John, "He will never understand your explanation I have a hard time believing it myself." The Chief just looked at her and keep walking.
"Its getting lighter were almost out of these cursed caves," said Spyro with a hint of relief.
"I take it you don't like it down here?" asked the Chief.
"Not at all," Cynder answered.
"The feeling is mutual," remarked John. The trio walked out into the courtyard of Warfang. "Well this is not what I expected," stated the Chief. Stretched out before him was the vastness of the New Warfang. All of it a sprawling sea of white bricks and golden terraces with green gardens and parks scattered throughout the city whose expanse covered about one and a half square miles.
"Yes it's the crowing jewel of our achievements since the war." Cynder said. "And hopefully will remain a reminder of what was sacrificed for its freedom" she thought to herself as Cyril flew over head and angled toward them.
"Get ready here comes the inspection crew," remarked Spyro to John as Cyril landed.
Cyril looked at John and said, "I see I wasn't the only one to have an eventful day we need to talk meet me in the High Chamber with your new acquaintance."
Spyro and Cynder looked at each other then back to Cyril and finally to Master Chief. "Ok," thought Cynder, "this is not the reception I thought Cyril would have toward a stranger just appearing out of the tunnels with us but maybe it is a good sign."

"Where is Cyril and his mysterious guest," K said to no one in particular.
"Well maybe that dragon got lost in this city suggested Haggard.
"I don't think he was asking you, snapped Jackson.
K rolled his eyes and walked to the other side of the chamber. The High Chamber was a wondrous piece of engineering with its 60' high 100' diameter dome suspended by nothing but the four Elemental magics, Fire Earth, Ice, and Electricity. The dome was made of pure adamantium and radiated a continuous blue glow and the walls were pure gold. K found it relaxing especially when dealing with mysterious "visitors" as Cyril called them. Just as he was about to go and smack the one named Haggard into the wall and out the other side for his constant pointless ramblings, Spyro, Cynder, Cyril, Fenix, and John walked into the room. K started at the sight of Fenix.
Fenix looked at him and said, "yeah its me K you remember, battle of Jacinto. You left us right after it was over."
"I saved all of your lives that day I owe you nothing," rasped K.
"I'm not asking for anything yet but you out of everyone here can tell me what the ….," Fenix started. "Yes yes Ok!" yelled K. "You all are probably wondering how you got here." K let out a long slow breath, "I think someone is controlling or attempting to control the wormholes that connect the fixed points in time and space. I know of only four beings who could accomplish that feet. One myself, Two our good host Spyro here he nodded in Spyro's direction, Three the dragon who was Malafor, and four The lord of terror himself…. Diablo in conjunction with his brothers Baal and Mephisto. If any of these last two are doing this then all of time and space is in peril, but I fear that Malafor may be working with the three prime evils, Diablo, Baal, and Mephisto. If this is true than they are probably using the wormholes to bring together the most powerful forces for evil this universe has ever seen. From the four of you I would guess the terrorist and communists from Earth the locus from Serra, the Covenant of the Brutes, Hunters, Jackals, Grunts, Drones, and Prophets that the Chief here just finished fighting, Malafor's minions and the legions of hell under the command of the three."
"Then how do we stop them?" asked the Chief coolly.
