Mercedes successfully got Horace out of Drakoen's clutches. Once she was sure he was gone, her head hung low in exhaustion, breething slowly. She begged Drakoen to allow her to open the portal. She didn't want to take chances and allow him to be the one to send him off. With power low and weak, it was quite a challenge to create a portal, and it almost drained the life out of her. Still, there was no way she was going to trust him with that. Drakoen knew she didn't trust him, and she was right not to. If she did, she would be foolish because he was not going to let him go. For the sake of his plan, he unwillingly gave in to her demands.
" I have let you do what you want, so now it's my turn. Let's not waste time anymore."
That was it? Was the way things were going to end for her? Patheti
