The yearslong crisis in Arena is finally coming to an end, and Vannie is asked to take the throne to help unite the country. But that would come at the cost of her life as a Draker.

Celebration for the new Quinn Zaza's completion is cut short by some troubling news.

The only way Mika and the others can stop the deal is by catching Typhon first, setting the stage for a three-way showdown. Hopefully, the upgraded Quin Zaza is up to the challenge!
