* Shortly before the climax of Volume 7 of ''Literature/TheBeginningAfterTheEnd'', [[BigBad Agrona]] reveals to Alduin and Merial Eralith that thanks to the Beast Will Arthur gave their daughter Tessia years ago (which was extracted from a failed experiment of his), he now has control over whether or not she lives or dies. He offers them a truly SadisticChoice: Either they can let in one of his Scythes into the Council Castle to kill Virion (Alduin's father and the supreme commander of the Dicathians) or he will let Tessia wither away and die. They choose the former, and in the process the Dicathians are forced to evacuate the castle and go into hiding. In the aftermath, while Arthur, Tessia, and Virion escape the attack, Alduin and Merial aren't so lucky as they along with Blaine and Priscilla Glayder are executed by Agrona's servants to mark the end of his conquest.
