"So, Ophiuca," I say, "this flute…it will give me control over snakes?"

Indeed, my little Lee…simply play it, and think your orders and wishes…and they will do whatever it takes to see that it is fulfilled!

I put the flute to my mouth and begin playing.

Come, my little pets, to your ruler, Ophiuca Avenger…attack everyone but me, including on the way here…

"Eek!" a voice cries, "Snakes!"

I see snakes coming through the vents, their bodies making me long to have their ingenious design.

Good thing I obeyed the order to turn the cold air off, Ophiuca.

I exit the room and play, walking down the stairs until I reach the first floor.

People are trying to evacuate, but it's all in vain…

Kill them all, my pets! Show them no mercy! No mercy to the ones who dare say that I am not Sonia's child!

Every last human dies, each kicking and screaming.

Now, destroy the rest! Every other human besides myself must die! Do it, my dearest pets!

Screams come from upstairs as I hear the work being done for me.

When the screams die, I stop playing and sigh.

"Where is she?" I shout, "Lyra…where is Lyra?"

Lee-sama, don't be so angry…Lyra is in a place known as Garden Wake, along with the fugitive I told you about.

I begin playing once more.

Garden Wake…One of you, go to Garden Wake and keep an eye on the one who lives with the fugitive…I will watch your progress…and catch up soon enough.

One of the many snakes disappear, obviously following my orders.

Good. Aquarius should be nearby, my pet, so keep an eye out for him.

I stop playing and nod in satisfaction.

Thank you, Ophiuca, for helping me play a new song. A song…of revenge.
