Location- Central Region, Central Capital, Secret Prison, Unknown, Interrogation Room No.12

"Field Marshal Henricks, what are you doing?" Sansa pretended to be shocked and taken aback by Henricks sudden arrival and actions.

The figure that appeared out of the portal was non-other than Henricks. Both Henricks and Sansa, one Baylor's mentor and the other his wife, were acquainted. Seeing him appear in the secret prison interrogation room and knock out the two agents Sansa was both revealed and surprised at the same time.

Revealed because both Henricks and Baylor were labeled as Freedom Fighters, so she figured she could finally get some information about her missing husband. Surprised because she knew Henricks was strong but not this strong. From breaking into the secret prison to knocking out two agents without alerting the authorities, It appeared, along with his second identity as the boss of the freedom fighters Henricks also hid his overall strength.

"..." Henricks did not bother to observe Sansa's performance instead he threw the two unconscious Agents into the portal and then sat across her waiting for her to finish her act.

"Field Marshal, where is my husband? Is he safe? Tell me what they are saying about him is not true. Tell me, my husband is not a freedom fighter. He is the most loyal man I have ever seen. Tell me, they are wrong about him," Sansa hysterically wailed contrary to when the two agents were interrogating her.

"Wow, I thought Baylor was dense. But you are a very convincing actor," Henricks finally understood that Baylor was not at fault for not having figured out the true identity of the woman who shared his bed every night. This woman was just too good.

"Field Marshal, I don't understand what you are talking about?" Sansa acted ignorant as she really did not understand the reason behind the change in Henricks's attitude toward her. If she knew what Henricks was getting at then she could deny it instead of pretending to not understand.

"They say the devil will not show itself until you call it by its true name. Is that how it works for you too? Do I need to say your true name to summon your true self?" Henricks asked Sansa sarcastically. He did not bother to be polite with her as he knew what she was capable of and what she had done.

"Field Marshal, I don't know what you are getting at and I don't care. Just tell me where my husband is?" Sansa no longer acted distressed instead her expression solidified as she enquired Henricks about her husband's whereabouts. Sansa got the feeling that Henricks knew something but she did not know how much he knew so she decided to just stick to enquiring about her husband.

"Chills, I literally felt chills seeing the switch in your expression. So I take it I am speaking to Matron now," Henricks glanced at Sansa with the expectation to see the look on her face as he reveal her second identity to her. But to his disappointment, Sansa's expression remained the same, or rather she appeared to be more confident and her presence seem to fill the room colluding with Henricks's presence. It was like two tigers were fighting to rule the same mountain peak.

"Matron? What is that?" Sansa asked, purposefully using what instead of who.

"Not what but who. You are Matron or do you still prefer Madam Web in this timeline?" Henricks knew everything Luna knew about Matron. And what Luna knew was more than just Matron's past and present, she knew what her future was supposed to be.

"It appears you know quite a lot about things no one is supposed to know. It seems I had underestimated the leader of the Freedom fighters," Matron maintained calmness despite Henricks revealing her second identity. Surprising Henricks who was trying to get a reaction from her. This was one of the reasons why he was acting so mysterious and not directly coming to the point. With that intent, he added, "That you did, no one will argue with you on that."

"What are we doing here?" Sansa saw that Henricks was trying to provoke her but she knew the one to lose their calm first will lose control over the conversation so she directly asked the million-dollar question.

​ "I don't know about you but I am wondering whether to kill you or use you," acknowledging Sansa wasn't some pushover like her husband Henricks finally spoke his mind.

Freedom Fighters stood for the people and equality among all. And what Matron represented was just the exact opposite of that. Therefore, Henricks never considered having Sansa join the freedom fighters. He did not like what Sansa did, so much so, that he was having a hard time deciding whether to use her as a tool for accomplishing freedom fighters' agenda.

With someone as capable as Matron working for them, the freedom fighters can easily accomplish their plans of overthrowing the government, royal families, and the central region nobles decades ahead of time. But at what price? Sansa's ability was one of the scariest abilities he has known in his career. If someone like her were to become a demigod or even achieve transcendence under his watch then he will become the greatest sinner of this world.

Right now, Sansa's realm was her limitation but in the future, once she manages to remove that limitation who can stop her from playing with the memories of every human in the world? In Henricks's eyes, Sansa was more of a threat than a tool for the freedom fighters. But he could not bring himself to destroy her because with her they can avoid the meaningless sacrifice of the brave brothers and sisters of the freedom fighters and they can save the people from decades of injustice and suffering. Henricks's resolve went weak thinking of an easy win. But then thinking of the price of the easy win, the people that would be victimized by Sansa's ability, his resolve grew.

The brothers and sisters of the freedom fighters had agreed to sacrifice themselves for the good of the people. But not the people who would be victimized by Sansa's ability to search for an easy win. Henricks realized what he had to do. With his resolve strengthened he came to a decision.

But just when he wanted to act on his decision, Sansa suddenly said, "Baylor is mine, nobody can take him from me not even you." Saying that Sansa dropped dead and her body turned into ash. She had committed suicide. Not finding a grimoire and an ego gem in the ashes Henricks said, "You can run but you will not escape me, for I am your death."
