A group of miner's came back to the castle door.

Devlin looked toward them.
"Well.. was he right?"


The man simply nods.
"THERE'S SO MUCH GOLD THERE,
IT'S...IT'S UNBELIEVABLE!"


Devlin laughs
"AHAHAHAHA, my dear Mackeral,
you have done an excellent job of helping this Castletown,
I thank you."

Mackeral bows.
"You are welcome my liege, it is an honor to be allowed to live here."


And so weeks and months passed, Mackeral continued financially advising the King.

Until one fateful day.


I walked into a room in the back to find some of my play things, when I saw Mackeral on the phone.
"Yes Master, i'm getting closer.. i'm sure that i'll find what you're looking for soon, don't worry, Hubert Pain...
I won't have to endure these people much longer." and then after he said to himself "I'll need to get rid of any evidence I was talking to him...."
and I saw him turn his phone to golden dust.


I gasped and ran straight to my parents.
"MOTHER! FATHER!
Who's Hubert Pain? I know i've heard you've told me to stay away from him but-"


My Father cringed
"Son... who told you that name?"


I replied
"I heard Mr. Mackeral talking on the phone, and then he turned it to gold!"


Devlin growls
"!!!
OF COURSE!
It all makes sense, he was one of them!"


Some time passed, and I went with my father who watched as our army arrested Mackeral,
before they could I watched as I saw everyone around him, turned to gold.

Mackeral laughed evilly.
He was about to touch the King, but then.


General Alexander jumped in front of him.
"YOU ARE NOT TO HARM HIM!"

Mackeral stopped
"But..
Why-...
....I see...
I am no longer needed eh?
I understand."

Mackeral then lowers his arms.
I walk over to him.
"Don't leave Sir-"


My father tried to stop me.
"SON!! DON'T GET TOO CLOSE!"


Mackeral struck me, punching me in the face.
But unlike them, I was not turned to gold.


I started to cry, as a young boy, I had never been struck before, this was quite a shock.
And so some more guards came in, and put chains around Mackeral that disabled his abilities.


My Father's personal advisor walked into the room, Manny.
"What's going on here?"


I went up to him.
"MANNY!"

I hugged him tightly.

He looked down at me oddly, as I let go he screamed
"NO DEVON NO!!!"


I then went over to hug onto my parents' legs.
and watched as they turned to gold before me.


I screamed in horror, and started to cry.
"WHY DID THIS HAPPEN?!"


Manny leaned down.
I asked him what had just occured, and he explained everything.

We slowly figured out that the gold was actually stone converted into gold,
that Mackeral was given Venefy powers by Hubert Pain, and this all a ploy to acquire something.

And that in his last moments, Mackeral transferred his powers into me, to preserve them upon execution.


And he was executed, publicly.
With no parents I was pronounced King at only 7 years old, but Manny ruled over until I was old enough.


END OF FLASHBACK

Darla looks toward Devon in tears.
"So you told Melody...
and she threatened to break the statues, which is why you-"


Devon nods.
"Which is why I did as she said,
the statues still have a chance of being returned to their original form,
as long as I have these powers, and this is why I wear these gloves, for one touch from my hands,
would turn anything I see into gold..
except Manny, he is of a unique race, I know little of his origins, but he was immune."


Manny sighs
"I do not like talking of my past.. it does not matter."

And he simply walks away.
Darla hugs onto Devon.
"YOU HAVE NOTHING TO FEEL GUILTY FOR, YOU'VE BEEN HOLDING THIS IN FOR YEARS, IT MUST FEEL TERRIBLE."


He hugs her back.
"Thank you..."
