Three Traitor Elves, One Fierce Viper

After Corin pulls Aon, Dó, and Trí back from the brink, the three sprites turn their attention to his brother Julian and scheme to force Corin to let them go. Corin answers by swapping them for Julian’s snake-woman Vesper, then enters a sham marriage for a 5% stake in the family company. The wedding descends into chaos, and Corin leaves the country with Vesper. When Julian pushes the business into a crisis, Corin comes back, takes the reins, and permanently overturns the family power balance.
