Our Sillage agent has come a long way since her beginnings. She finds herself at the heart of a much larger conspiracy than her mission of apprehension of a leader who has caused the death of migrants. When Nävis finally manages to get hold of the fugitive refusing to appear at his convocation, it quickly turns out that the latter is sufficiently wealthy and has the right connections to succeed in getting away without condemnation. Nävis then goes beyond the limits of his burden by being more aggressive than necessary. Our favorite human has become more and more difficult to endure injustice.
