The arrow almost hits its mark. For a split second, Ronan wonders if Kylo isn't tired of this already, and the possibility that he'll find himself without Kylo or Hennessy by the time this is over sparks a brief but violent flash of panic through Ronan. But then Kylo, with one simple statement, soothes that fear and brushes it aside, and Ronan laughs.

"Those wizards brought me here because of what I can do," he tells Hennessy with renewed confidence. "They saved me from your bullshit because they didn't want me rotting on a dead ley line. They wanted me here, with the Singularity, so that I can use it to keep doing exactly what I'm good at."
