Dormin moves to attack Eamon and his men but Wander’s spirit fights back for control, during this struggle between Dormin and Wander one of Eamon’s men steals the sword and, on the way out, Eamon thrusts the sword into the pool of water at the end of the room. As Wander dies his body is enveloped by darkness and Dormin comes forth from his new host, explaining how they were locked away and sealed in the colossi. Eamon explains that Dormin has been simply using Wander to free themselves and return to their true form but, shortly after Eamon’s explanation, Wander is shot dead by one of Eamon’s men. Eamon is furious and shouts at Wander, asking him if he knows what he has done and reveals Dormin’s true identity to Wander, claiming that Wander has been manipulated.
