The squad secures a couple of boats to cross the lake separating them from the Jaal'darya fortress. While crossing the lake, they see the Jaal’s golems which Vayas'arn thinks are cute before they were attacked by them. She releases her own golems upon Erelice’s order. They successfully crosses the lake where they are greeted by the Jaal'darya clan members. The Jaals ask the Sarghress squad to explain themselves. After Erelice talks to the Jaals, the Jaals decide to let them stay as they arrange an audience with Asira'malika. Vayas’arn is surprised to see male members of the Jaals though unlike Erelice comments on this loudly to the amusement of the Jaal'darya. She is also impressed by the fortress. Several hours later, the squad is still waiting for somebody to see them. Vayas'arn notes that they’re like prisoners since they can’t leave the room. Briz'dra uses a spell song to put everyone to sleep upon Sabryne’s message and then helps her squad mates wake up. Brizdra tells Erelice that they have a lead and Sabryne has a map courtesy of Wafay. The squad then follow the map. They reach a room and Erelice tells Vayas'arn and Brizdra to stand guard while Filf'rae and Sabryne goes in with her. Unfortunately, the Jaals catch them.

Later, during a hearing with a council of Jaal representatives, the Jaal'darya demand that the squad explains their actions. Erelice explains Wafay’s concerns about a Nidraa'chal conspiracy within the clan and the squad has found that Femi has indeed created a flower similar to what Wafay describe. This troubles the Jaals who admit that while Femi has the right to develop such a weapon, they have had traitors before. They then allow the Sarghress to leave. Vayas'arn is concerned that the Nidraa'chal are still around and worries there might be another war but Sabryne reassures her saying that they are already at war, the stakes simply got higher. The squad leaves Jaal territory and proceed to report back to Quain.

### Defense of Felde

Vayas'arn an the rest of her squad are then ordered to infiltrate Snadhya'rune Vel'Sharen's stronghold, seeing to it that they secure samples of the Jaal'darya concoction for the clan rather than for the sake of the Jaals themselves. The job is botched when security forces are alerted to their presence, and Femi is assassinated in the process. Order is quickly restored and Snadhya'rune plans a spectacular show for the Feldian party guests that their captain is forced to watch--in the form of an execution of the Sarghress squad by mana cannons, provided by the stolen Illhar'dro ship. At first, as the cannons fire and the squad reacts differently to their execution; Vayas'arn can only wail as the cannons fire on them. She survives two blasts with Filf'rae using her body to block most of it, then she is discovered alive by a frightened Niphrendil and taken to dungeons to be held alongside Erelice.

Kiel'ndia Vel'Vloz'ress stumbles on the two while trying to break out An'jin Jie'yen, and makes a deal with Erelice to free them in exchange for creating the best damn distraction of their lives.
