That night the Shelby brothers camped near the forest edge.
Thomas Shelby sat quietly thinking.
He had seen many wars in his life.
But nothing like this.
Suddenly a strange light appeared in front of him.
The spirit of Panjurli appeared.
The ancient guardian looked powerful and calm.
"You came here for power," the spirit said.
Thomas Shelby stared silently.
"But power without balance destroys everything."
For a moment Thomas felt something he had never felt before.
Peace.
The spirit placed its hand on his chest.
A divine energy entered his soul.
Thomas fell to his knees.
For the first time in his life…
The ruthless gangster bowed his head.
The Transformation
The next morning the Shelby gang gathered.
Arthur noticed something strange.
Thomas Shelby looked different.
Calmer.
Stronger.
"What happened to you?" Arthur asked.
Thomas looked toward the forest.
"This land is sacred," he said quietly.
"We are not here to conquer it."
"We are here to protect it."
The Shelby brothers were shocked.
But then something incredible happened.
The forest wind moved around them gently.
Almost like the spirits accepted them.
