Shadow from the Beyond
Synopsis
Mael Salach talks about love and glory and killing all mortals with the help of Focii and you learn what it all means as a Tuath'de. Their love is not the same as mortal love. Killing him "saves" Scatheran Forest" for the time being. Oh, and you get to kill Fionn again because that's who they're trying to bring back from the dead.
