### Light Novel Volume 02

Fangas was present as a council meeting of the high elders in Maple when the elders summoned his son-in-law Dillan and granddaughter Ariane to report on the rescue of the kidnapped elves from Diento. When some of the elders criticized Ariane for murdering Marquis Diento and believed that they should formally apologize, Fangas objected to the idea of explaining themselves to the human kingdom. A few accused the dark elf of intervening due to his familial connection, which caused Fangas to intimidate the accuser. Though he was restrained by Chief Elder Briahn Bond Evanjulin Maple, though the latter agreed that staying silent to the humans was the best course of action.

### Light Novel Volume 03

Later in Maple, he met with Dillan having called him from Lalatoya. He was apologetic for making his son-in-law of wasting rune stones for the teleportation costs, but was surprised that the cost was covered by Arc, a guest of Dillan's village. Fanga was interested in the mercenary though questioned if the 'human' was trustworthy. Despite Dillan's assurances, Fangas was unsure of having an unknown travel with his dear granddaughter. At the meeting he informed Dillan that Maple had received word from Limbult that a entourage from the Rhoden Kingdom arrived to discuss with the elders about the the incident at Diento. Among the representatives that wanted to meet the elves was Princess Yuriarna Merol Melissa Rhoden Olav. This was fortunate news to Dillan who was planning in arranging a meeting with her. Fangas hearing that hoped that they would be able to find some common ground with the Kingdom.

There after greeting Duchess Seriarna Meria du Olav Ticient, they were introduced to her younger sister Princess Yuriarna. Fangas spoke to her on behalf of the Great Canada Forest. After learning that the princess was here to not just apologize for Marquis Diento's actions, but also seek his people's aid by strengthening elf and human relations by opening trade and recognizing Canada.
