Draconas must also hide since he now knows that Anora is the traitor of the Dragon Parliament. He trolls the city in the guise of an innocent while gathering information to assist Ven and Marcus in bringing down the unholy trio of dragon traitors.

His intentions are to make Ven his next human host and Marcus has to help Ven fight him off in a battle that kills Grald.

Evelina is rewarded for her plots with banishment to a distant convent while Marcus and Ven start building their lives anew.
