Apparently Soulblighter spent a lot of time trying to recruit his former boss's allies--he convinced the Fetch that their deal still held and that he would send them home, he unsuccesfully tried to win over the Trow. One wonders why he didn't try to recruit the myrms--surely they would have been an easy sell. He could have claimed to know how to give them their looks back. They would have bought that in a second--myrms are stoopid. Maybe the processes of decay kept wearing them down and now they're little more than jawless skulls, clawing their way across the deserts with their upper teeth, completely useless to anyone.
