I have The Magic Book of Spells and I don't remember reading that Shastacan was alive after Eclipsa and Globgor's crystallization. If I remember correctly, the only mention of Shastacan after Eclipsa's chapter is in Festivia's chapter where she mentions that he's dead. Unless I'm missing something, I think it's perfectly possible that Globor ate Shastacan sometime after Eclipsa ran away and before the crystallization.
