The Prisoner: A dark being of absolute destruction and decimation, can kill by making eye contact and accessing their emotions (he can only kill those with anger), can turn into a massive power-hungry demon blob of pitch-black slime, and tends to destroy everything he touches.

I finished the chapter in time, it's been sent to my editor so she can look it over and tell me how bad it is XD Depending on what she says, I might have the chapter up in time anyway :) It is going to be short, but I think it's fine. Next chapter (chapter 54), or the chapter after that (55), I'm going back to mainly Jax, but I think using these different perspectives was very interesting and helped with my writing XD
