( he takes her to Sanyon and explains what happened. Sanyon puts her body in a preservation chamber)

Xiwang needs to find a way to calm down. He goes to a quiet place and says a prayer to the Oversoul before beginning to meditate. During the meditation he suddenly passes out and enters a strange dream; He looks around and sees what appears to be the garden he and Ana often spent time together in. Out of nowhere a towering being approaches.

Xiwang: Who are you?

Ira: I am Ira, the Lord of Wrath. Your rage calls out to me and I can hear your blood boiling in your veins as we speak. I have come to extend to you an offer to join me, not as a thrall, but as a fellow wronged soul. (extends his hand) Take my hand and I will turn your fury into raw unchallengeable power and allow you to revel in the holy ecstasy of vengeance.

Xiwang: I am not interested. I have other things to motivate me.

Ira: You speak of love......abandon it, as it has and will continue to fail you, for the secret of justice is not to give back to yourself but to take away from those who wronged you.

Xiwang: I do not agree with you and neither would Ana.

Ira: You fool! Ana is gone! You cannot save her, You watched her dye! Even if you find her jewel it will be futile! Your love has failed you and led you to nothing!! Now, take my hand and receive the power repay those who have done you evil!!

Xiwang: The memory of Ana's body falling lifelessly to the ground coupled with the fear that he will not be able to save her strikes him like a charging rhino and his rage surges. He begins to slowly reach his hand towards Ira's almost in a trance.......as his hand gets close to Ira's the plants in the garden start to burn.

While this is happening Anastasia's consciousness has evacuated to the emerald and is still active. For some unknown reason she has become linked with Xiwang's mind..........she is able to see his dream, she heard the conversation between him and Ira, she feels his immense suffering..........and she sees his hand slowly moving towards Ira's.
