The last ingredient slid into the simmering cauldron. A soft bellow of haze was emitted, the liquid cleared producing an aroma reminiscent of peroxide. He breathed it in deeply and an unfamiliar smile crept across his face. The past… filled with betrayal, servitude, and his own martyrism. A lifetime of willful suffering for past sins, of the tinted joy he found in his own misery... was over. The Dark Lord gone, the debt repaid, and now he could finally be selfish. The ladle submerged into the brew and the Potions Master consumed his creation; in return it swiftly consumed him.
