Jace ripped the package from her hands. "Who sent you, girl?!" he demanded. "Who is it you work for?"

"I-I don't know," Faith said, quivering. "He didn't tell me his name."

"That's not possible!" Jace cried. "Was his name Medici?! Sanvi, or Jake, did he mention them?" He grabbed for her hair, to pull her closer to him.

"Ah! Yes!" Faith cried as she was dragged around by her hair again.

Jace shoved her away when she answered. "So, what was he thinking, sending a non-demon?" he said. "Probably…" He didn't finish what he was saying.

Faith fell to the floor when she was pushed away. Only then did she realize the fine mist that was starting to form around their feet.

"What's that mist?" the girl asked, noticing it now too.
"What did you do? What did he do?" Jace demanded. He moved to Faith, trying to pull her to her feet and grabbing her hair.

"nothing!" Faith cried. She didn't know what was going on either. "I don't know what the package is or what this is!"

Jace released her, angered. He tore open the package, revealing a ring and a decorative dagger. He admired the dagger. "Perfect, just only a few years late from old Medici. Oh, well, I won't hold it against him," he said.

When Jace released her, the mist seemed to pool under her and cushion her fall. "What are they?" she asked, quietly.

"A ring showing that I'm the rightful leader," Jace said. "And my favorite dagger, a small token of loyalty and a wager from a long-standing bet."

"Either because he was desperate, or he expected me to release you," Jace said, slipping the ring onto his finger. He put the dagger onto his belt. "Or both, if he's especially foolish."

"Are you going to release me?" Faith asked.
