The red giant stood on all fours like his sister did. He was the physical embodiment of pain, like the creature who controls all nightmares. Erol's face was of that of a huge constrictor, serpentine all the way down until his neck met his shoulders. Unlike a suffocating snake, his lower jaw spread apart into two separate sections lined with serrated fangs. His flaming brown eyes blazed in the cool clear air like twin novas. Above his fierce eyes sat a trio of sword like horns of Dark Eco that shifted from black to purple in the light. His body was that of a hairless crimson gorilla crossed with a sturdy Tiger like cat with talons on each limb of an eagle. His spinal cord cut off abruptly leaving no trace of any form of tail. His body was scale less with the exception of the three scale plates on his forelegs. Taking a step forward, his four toed foot came crashing down atop Nhana. Dark Jak winced slightly at the sound of snapping bones. Erol's three jaws spread wide as he lunged at the young man. Dark Jak became Dark Giant and grasped Erol's jaw with one hand when he threw Daxter out of the face of danger.

"My sister." she heard a faint voice speaking to her mind. She couldn't breath, she couldn't think, she didn't even know who or what she was. Pain lanced through her mind like blue lightening.

Blue lightening? I remember blue lightening. Darkness. Who am I? She wondered, her thoughts jumbled and tangled in the darkness of her mind. "My sister, wake up."

"Who are you?" she called back into the darkness, mind to mind.

"You must get up. I can't help you anymore. It's your time now to prove that you really can fight on your own" the voice whispered to her mind. It trailed off leaving silence and the sound of her own heart. Wait. She thought. What's that sound?

Listening to the darkness, she heard it again, a faint fluttering sound.

"I remember now!" she screamed to the darkness. "Erol, you bastard! You took part of my heart! You bastard!! You BASTARD!! I'll kill you for this! Did you think that you really could control me by burying part of my heart in Dark Eco? I bow to no man!" she cried. Her atrocities in the bazaar, controlled by him. Her attack on Jak and Daxter. Daxter falling to the ground half dead.

No, no it wasn't me. He forced me to do it. She thought trying to take solace in the knowledge, but still saw his blood shining on her hands in the darkness. NO!

Shimmering trees in the early morning mist. The Air Transport came to a jouncing halt near the Great Tree in Haven Forest.

"This is your stop bitch!" a Guard yelled when he threw her from the back of the transport. The door closed as he laughed with his comrades. She laid on the whispering grass for what seemed like years. She could feel the skin on her forehead knitting itself back together. Her mind was another matter, the minor functions were healing themselves, but memories couldn't be repaired. She thought long and hard and could remember only three things, Erol, their fate, her death. When motor skills were repaired, she staggered to her feet.

"Where am I?" she wondered aloud. "Who the hell am I for that matter?"

Nhana. You are Nhana, don't forget that. A gentle voice spoke on the laughing wind. She turned and stared at the tree, snaking up its ancient bark was a bright river of Green Eco. Another river of Blue Eco danced through the air. Yet another color illuminated the morning sky, Yellow Eco. Finally flowing about her tattered boots like watery fire, Red Eco flowed all about her.

You are Nhana, daughter of the elements. You are now of the Eco of Fire. The voice spoke vanishing with the first three Ecos leaving the red shining brightly on her skin.

Pain snapped her from her reverie. Her chest imploded with such an excruciating force that she wished she were dead.

"Time to fight, my sister."
