In return, Hasdrabul, a Carthaginian warrior over a thousand years old, uses his Hell-developed power to blend into the shadows to first vanish before Stone can take him down, and then start killing the widows of ""fallen warriors"" (i.e., policeman killed in the line of duty), as Carthaginian ritual demands.
