The wind continued to grow cooler and dense with the evil that the army had been spreading in its path. Weak minded people in the towns became affected by the wind's evil affect, mostly children. Those who were affected by the wind's new dark power it has come to inhabit either went mad or died within days of exposer. Kalinia was enjoying every second of this as she watched this plague spread and attack the hapless citizens of each town her army had come into contact with. With every step forth her army made cause the sky to only darken and the land die beneath their feet. Town after town, city after city, Kingdom after Kingdom, her power grew and the army's numbers increased.
Kalinia knew that the group of youngsters that she had encountered was more than just brave and heroic, they posed a dangerous threat to her efforts in her goal. She knew that if she didn't kill them quickly, they would be a problem in the future. She knew that they had the capability of stopping her... that is IF they find their power. Kalinia had plans to destroy them... one by one. She wanted them to suffer by killing off their friends and make them go through a stage of sadness and anger. The first that was to go was Jack, but unfortunately, her efforts failed and Jack managed to survive her curse. The curse, for some reason, didn't affect the others as much. Little or no changes were present in the others. It had almost gotten to Glyde the night he was staring at the sky, but shook off the curse in his sleep. DQ showed signs of increased aggressiveness; Kalinia thought she had gotten to DQ, until Kalinia eventually found that DQ was calming down a bit due to ZF.
Kalinia was becoming nervous and she had to come up with another plan to rid the heroes' existence. She knew that the only way to kill them was in battle. Though, for some reason, she wanted DQ's beloved brother to die first. DarkZero had questioned why she didn't want to kill Stalkid or any of the others first. Kalinia, grimly smiling, answered DarkZero with this answer, "Progress would be so much better if we had another powerful ally. To get the powerful, we must destroy its one true love in order for us to gain it. Jack must die first. Otherwise, we will never get to the powerful being."
