In TEN the Chroniclar says noone can resist the temptation or somthing about Cynder. Think she'll be eval again? And what about that lava monster in the pics? Who the hell is that? (Maybe the finale boss Malefor transforms into monster to KILL sPYRO!)

Spyro runs away from his fears he's scared of malefor because he knows cynder will die because the dark master will either take her back for being a faith survent or she will die
