Plot

The story starts off with Mare under Maven's captivity. She is displayed to look weak as they travel through Archeon, where she joins him on stage and is forced to kneel. Maven wants to "display" herase she did to his mother, while Mare wears a spiked, chained collar of silent stone.

Maven delivers a big speech to the crowd of Silver and then abandons Mare, then she is led down to her bedroom "cell". Mare assumes that he hopes for her to be forgotten and to "rot". He does that by isolating her and using the silent stone to contain her powers.

Mare battles with Maven's two-sided personality as she is held captive and finds a small part of herself searching for the boy she once loved. Maven slowly starts revealing some of his tragic and sad story in which his late mother, Queen Elara, abused him within the mind.

As he reveals small parts of himself, Mare learns that he has always loved her, in what poisoned way he can, and that he can't find it in him to let her go.

Later, he ends the war with the Lakelands by agreeing to wed the Lakelander Princess Iris. They return to Whitefire to organize a royal wedding. At the wedding, chaos strikes as the Scarlet Guard attacks, rescuing Mare.
