	Don Tomas and Arnviðr are forced to cut tea with Feng Yuhan short when they discover that one o the Vivisectors from Brene had arrived in the city. This was trouble because this Vivisector was one of the few people alive who knew that the real Don Diego was dead. Don Tomas quickly teleported away while Arnviðr engaged Feng Yuhan and Chief Gnarlvrock in battle outside of the pully elevator that led below the palace. Arnviðr manages to toss both the bugbear chief and the prince into the elevator shaft and is forced to retreat below the palace when the guards arrive.		Don Tomas and Arnviðr are forced to cut tea with Feng Yuhan short when they discover that one o the Vivisectors from Brene had arrived in the city. This was trouble because this Vivisector was one of the few people alive who knew that the real Don Diego was dead. Don Tomas quickly teleported away while Arnviðr engaged Feng Yuhan and Chief Gnarlvrock in battle outside of the pully elevator that led below the palace. Arnviðr manages to toss both the bugbear chief and the prince into the elevator shaft and is forced to retreat below the palace when the guards arrive.

			Below the palace the other heroes began to sabotage Project Dominion, by destroying the stabilizers that kept the unrefined ether in check and by moving all of the unrefined ether to right below the arcane engine. Prince Peng Yuhan who had survived their fall, used their last breath to summon Yeenoghu using Project Overlord, who they foolishly believed they could control. Yeenoghu laughed in the face of the Prince and revealed his deception. He revealed that he used i]his influence to modify Project Dominion to not affect Demons, meaning that when it would be activated, mortals would be helpless to save themselves from demonic slaughter. Yeenoghu easily broke from his bindings and freed the other demons under Troverth's control. At the same time, Feng Yuhan was slain when Wolf cast Finger of Death on him and turned the prince into a zombie.

			But before Yeenoghu could activate Project Dominion, the heroes of the Delvin sacrificed themself to destroy the machine by setting of the unrefined ether and causing the machine and the entire city of Quixing to be destroyed in a massive explosion. The only survivor of the heroes would be Don Tomas who managed to escape at the last moment, returning to the Delvin to share their stories and honor the memories of those who sacrificed themselves to end the Realm War.

She reveals that Project Dominion is able to remove a creature's capacity for violence. While Prince Feng Yuhan hopes this can be used to nullify opposing armies, Mae Tadako secretly plans to release it upon the entire world, and hopefully end all war forever. While investigating Mae's labs, lee discovers the remnants of demonic experimentation, and learns that he was once a test subject of this lab with demon parts having been grafted onto his body.
