== Plot ==
Rathisi returns to reclaim his stolen throne.
== Synopsis ==
Team Aguero are planning their attack as a shadowy figure steps towards them, revealed to be Rathisi. They are excited to see him and he’s excited his cousin Genna managed to get his message to them. Aragi thinks back to the Defteros he stabbed in the face and immediately denies ever running into her. That somewhat concerns the Dragon but he saves it for later. He requests their help to reclaim his throne from his usurper and aunt, Theia. They agree. Nesrin attempts to access the NBS bank account and doesn’t have the credentials so he goes to speak with Opia. She calls him out on his failed plan but he worms his way around it by revealing that he is in fact “The Raven”. She tests this by sending him with three hundred men to Bertiona to stop the oncoming army from the East. He agrees. Phylyco intercepts a letter for Hylophagous warning him about the oncoming soldiers. He sends one of his men towards the circus to guarantee no one else can get this information and prepares for the attack. Rathisi tells the boys his story. It’s basically the plot to Hamlet. Aguero also lets it slip that Aragi killed Genna. Aragi tries to shift the blame to Phylyco but Rathisi doesn’t have the time to mourn. He also informs them that his name isn’t Rathisi, but Diatarachthei. They decide to keep calling him Rathisi. The group head straight for the Defteros camp. Rathisi mentions one secret way in but it’s through a cave of spiders. 
They get to the cave and Rathisi finally notices Echo and is immediately prepared to kill it but they all stop him. He apologizes and subtly jabs at Aragi for killing his cousin before they enter the cave. Nesrin goes to a contractor and introduces himself as Joel “Buggawugga” Bogglewarg to ask for blueprints of the sewers. The contractor gives him the papers and they decide to hang out when he gets back to town. The party are travelling through the cave and Aguero notices a liquid drip onto his shoulder. They all look up and find they are directly below a colossal monstrous spider. They attempt to defend themselves but Aguero is poisoned and passes out so Rathisi puts it to sleep and they run past it towards their goal.
They are now on a time limit. They need to finish this mission and get an antidote for Aguero. Nesrin arrives at Bertiona with three hundred men in tow. Phylyco and his remaining to companions are at a severe disadvantage but prepare to take out as many men as they can until the circus arrives. They don’t have to wait very long and the battle ensues. Rathisi, Aragi, and Sirobe begin their plan to assassinate Theia while Mal watches Aguero. They are caught and a fight breaks out. It appears they are going to lose as Rathisi is knocked unconscious and Aragi is prone but Mal comes to save the day and tackles Theia, trading blows until she runs out of fight so he brutalizes and kills her. 
Nesrin and Phylyco come face-to-face once again and the halfling flees, taking about a third of the men with him back towards Pentropolis. S.H.A.D.O.W. is victorious this time but the casualties are massive. They have about thirty men left. Hylophagous hopes Aguero’s mission was a success. Phylyco says goodbye to his fallen companion and sits with Lara. They briefly rest. Rathisi awakens in the aftermath. Mal helps him up and brings him to his throne. He sits for only a moment before getting up and heading out to the balcony to speak to his tribe. They take his return very positively. Over the cheers Aragi asks if they have his support in fighting Opia. The Chief nods.
