With death looming over him , Drayen told Risha to take the crown , and take back the throne of Dubrillion for herself . However , if she was to succeed , she would have to do many questionable things , and ordered her to kill the smuggler , whom he deemed irrelevant in the grand scheme of things , thus going back on his original promise .
