Violet doesn’t leave her bed for three days. When she finally does, it’s when Mira and Brennan show up. Her siblings get into a fight and the situation only escalates when Violet learns their father dedicated her to Dunne on Unnbriel. Mira storms off after finally hearing that Xaden turned venin.

Violet learns that her second signet is dreamwalking, a type of intinnsic. Wyvern and venin try to test Aretia’s wards (Tairn gets injured) and Theophanie shows up. Laotian fires the ward stone and convinces Andarna to break her bond with Violet and leave.

Iron Squad goes to Aretha for their rotation. Sawyer finally rides Sisleag again. Violet and Xaden celebrate Xaden’s venin-progression “stability” in the bedroom.

Quest squad splits for the time being. The cadets sit through Battle Brief, where they learn that Suniva, the Poromish capital, fell because of a fire started by Theophanie. Violet, Sawyer, Ridoc, Rhi, and Jesinia meet in the Scribe Quadrant to talk about Xaden being venin.

Andarna meets the irids on the island Trager and Sila are burned on. Andarna recounts her history, to the horror of her kin. Ridoc learns that Xaden is venin and all the irids (even though one seemed curious) fly off, refusing to help in the war with the dark wielders.

The quest squad reaches Zehyllna. Drake gets his cat, Ridoc get kissed, and Trager and his griffin die due to his arrow wound. Afterwards, Aaric secures an alliance with the isle’s queen. Violet is being forged into a strong leader through her guilt over Trager and Sila’s loss.

On the aisle of Hedeon, the quest squad has dinner with the triumvirate where there’s poisoned cake and tea. Garrick almost dies, Ridoc almost gets knifed, and it’s safe to say that Xaden & Violet were pissed.

The quest squad substitutes Aaric for Halden and travels to the Unnbriel. Violet channels on the island while she fights the Queen. Mira learned something from their grandma that she’s not telling Violet. Cat’s coming around to Trager. Violet starts to question why her hair is silver.

Violet gets her dad’s books from an old lady named Narelle. Violet & Xaden’s sex is interrupted; they have to go rescue Halden.
