A carrier is someone who's immune to the infection but carries it within their system nonetheless. If Jacob was a carrier, then he could be the biggest danger to humanity. There was no time to be happy that he was a normal human again, Viola was anxious but she didn't know how to save him. What could even be done about this? Riven was the only one to speak up to try to save him. "Nifa, come here." Iflet ordered. The bow legged - wait, when was she bow-legged? Did Iflet punish her for something recently? - came, the maid bowed and stood at Iflet's attention. Iflet grabbed Jacob, sliced into his arm and forced Nifa to drink from the knife. For a moment, nothing happened. And then nothing continued to happen. "I'm still human." Nifa said in dull surprise. She returned to Ronoue where the two would wait until they were needed.
"So I guess that means he isn't a carrier then." Iflet's voice was quiet as Gavyn watched the proceedings. Iflet drew her dagger, ready to go straight for the neck. "Don't-" Dominic was about to lunge and attack but Oliver and Elise pulled him back, not allowing him to get dragged down too. Jacob was shaking not out of fear, but his body must have taken so much damage these past few weeks. And he hasn't had anyone to come and help him. "Killing him right now would be in bad taste." The demon queen's entrance into the scene was very welcome. Next to her was her little sister, wagging her tail. "There's a ball coming up soon. Shouldn't we postpone his death until after the ball?
They had come back, they were ready for their part of the assassination plot. Baron Messiah and his group were being strategically quiet and Viola noticed that too. She nudged Riven, hoping Riven noticed. Messiah no doubt knew about their plan and chose to not get involved and let whatever side wins, win. Their only opponent would be Iflet and Gavyn Seylum. "And not in front of Riven. Traitor or not, she and him are still friends." Gavyn finally made his decision after weighing both sides of the problem. "It would be cruel to force her to watch her friend's death." Kitra walked up to Iflet then, with a little grin. "Let me keep him in Hell for now. You have a ball to get ready for."
The next morning had come. The day of the ball had finally come. Elise was back in her own room so it was just Viola and Riven waking up in Riven's room. Vi's room went unused in the end. "Kitra came back. She'll be free to help Doll and Christopher if need be." She was relieved that in the end, Jacob didn't die. "Today's the day, Riven. Then it'll all be over." One last fight. Gavyn wouldn't be a problem without Iflet as his protector. "Messiah won't get involved and neither will the demons under him. Since Echo vanished, Lipidus stopped following Iflet's orders too." The demons were out of the picture. No doubt Kitra had spoken to them. "I'm so tired, Riven. I don't want to be in stress anymore." To have to live with eyes constantly watching for any mistake, it was incredibly hard for someone like her.
