In City of Swords, Fabio suspects that Fortezza will be going through dark times as Prince Jacopo is dying of illness.

Just as Laura arrives in Fortezza, Prince Jacopo dies. When a succession struggle results between forces supporting Jacopo's legitimate elder daughter, Lucia, and his previously unknown illegitimate son, Ludo Vivoide, Fabio becomes preoccupied with forging more weapons and working with Rodolfo Rossi, Luciano Crinamorte, and Laura in coordinating efforts to communicate with the di Chimici army and Princess Lucia, who is trapped in the Rocca di Chimici.

As a result of the chaotic events in Fortezza, Fabio is unable to fully supervise Laura's training as a Stravagante and warn of her of various dangers and risk of traveling between worlds.
