She reveals that her own body has become a living vessel for the prophecies of fear, with the legends of the Sinestro Corps now inked onto her skin. Drak informs Sinestro that his former Corps is being mismanaged by Arkillo and, more importantly, that some Korugarians are still alive and being hunted. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eDriven by duty to his people, Sinestro accepts a recharge from Drak and suits back up in the yellow light of fear.
