Spyro followed the squirrel's projection through the ship. The sight of the ghostly image had startled him, but he quickly calmed down afterwards. He mulled over what he'd say to Stripetail when they talked and if he should really divulge all his feelings to him, but since Ignitus was gone, Stripetail was probably the nearest thing Spyro had left as a father figure.
He stepped onto the bridge as the projection vanished and he saw the real Stripetail. "Hey, I-." He glanced around at the other people in the room and suddenly felt very shy. "Needed to discuss something with you."

Eon's spirit appeared above the group, taking the form of a floating, glowing blue head with a long, flowing beard of white hair wearing a silver, horned helmet.
He hovered to Nick and his companion. "I've heard your pickle and I'll attempt to contact Stripetail now, though in my experience that squirrel tends to give his allies methods to contact him. If you have any such device, it could be very helpful for getting your message to him sooner rather than later."

"Who are you?" Haruto asked the armored figure.
The strange creature cracked its head to the side, the joints of its armor creaking as it did. It then flexed the rest of its limbs one by one, shaking off ages of motionless. It took a step forward, coming into the light. Swirls of dark smoke continued to drift out of the armor. The metal suit covered the figure from head to toe in black.
"You... are you a Phantom?" Naga questioned.
"Wrong," the knight replied in a low voice. He glanced at Haruto. "A wizard? Interesting. Do you plan to seal me back up?"
"That depends on if you need sealing back up," Haruto replied smartly.
"Think you can do it?" the knight asked. A fountain of dark energy appeared in his right hand, extending out and forming into a large, serrated blade. He raised his arm, pointing the sword at the Rider. "Come."
"If you insist," Haruto said. Normally, he wasn't one to pick fights, but this guy gave him a bad feeling. He raised his sword and charged.
