Twelve years later, Einons castle is rebuilt, and Bowen has become a dragonslayer. Brother Gilbert Pete Postlethwaite, a monk and aspiring poet, observes Bowen slaying a dragon and follows him to record his exploits. Bowen stalks another dragon to its cave, but the confrontation ends in a stalemate. The dragon states that he is the last of his kind, and thus if Bowen kills him, he will be out of a job. The two form a partnership to defraud local villagers with staged dragonslayings. Bowen calls the dragon Draco, after the constellation. Unbeknownst to Bowen, Draco is the dragon who shared his heart with Einon, and through this connection, any pain inflicted upon one is also felt by the other.Meanwhile, Kara seeks revenge on Einon for murdering her father and is imprisoned after a failed assassination attempt. Einon recognizes her as the one responsible for his neardeath and attempts to seduce her and make her his queen. Disgusted by what her son has become, Aislinn helps Kara escape. Kara tries to rally the villagers against Einon, but they instead offer her as a sacrifice to Draco, who takes her to his lair. Einon arrives to recapture her and fights Bowen, declaring that he never believed in the Old Code and only told Bowen what he wanted to hear so he would teach him how to fight. Draco intervenes and Einon flees. Kara asks Bowen to help overthrow Einon, but the disillusioned knight refuses. ........
