Staring down Arakis and Vainya, the Belligerents met Bao, a mediator apparently sent by a mysterious organization known as the Damiya
The group, with the help of Bao, convinced Vainya and Arakis to allow them access to the body of Gork along with the Daughters of Eve
The Daughters approached the drakadog's body and while Lily etched glowing white sigils in the floor around the body and her sister, Dahlia channeled a dark energy, reviving Gork to full life and not a necromantic facsimile
During the ceremony, Raithe and Phira felt an odd power in the chamber, and upon leaving, Phira had a conversation with an entity who called Lily and Dahlia her granddaughters
The voice claimed Phira was doing a wonderful job as a caretaker for the girls, and asked if she would accompany the girls farther, on a trip to the Kindred Isles, where a place was being made for them.
Phira agreed as far as doing right by the girls
Outside, Vainya and Arakis revealed they had teamed up because of Vainya's knowledge of Serenity Shores
They had a plan to move all the creatures Caster had made with the black ichor to a place called the Kindred Isle, south of Core Vandal. Apparently there was a power vaccuum in the isle, and it would be a good time for them to seek refuge there among many other Kindred, people who are both animal and human.
Sharing a hatred for Serenity Shores, Vainya and Flapjack made up, and Flapjack gave her his helmet, which Vainya wore with pride.
Together, the two groups began plotting a way to steal ships from Serenity Shores to take the great host of creatures from Ephemeraldion to the Kindres Isles.
