Realizing what had been done and the messenger was in fact an assassin of some sort, they drew their weapons. The Dark Wizard then possessed the deceased body of Jesan, taking arms against the friends of Jesan. From a corner down the hall, Vorhen had been listening and watching to the entire event. In rage from such acts, Vorhen began to advance on the enemy. Two of his father's associates had already been slain by the reanimated Jesan. Taking up one of the swords, Vorhen took his sights on his father. As the last ally was slain, Vorhen engaged his father. Himself being wounded many times, the body of his father was in fact dead and that proved to be a weakness for his opponent. On a lucky blow, Vorhen removed the head of his father and the body fall to a bloody pile on the floor. The essence of the Dark Wizard return to its own body.

​

Vorhen kneeled beside the body of his father until a servant had found the massacre. Jorhen's head rest in Vorhen's hands. From beside him, Vorhen heard a voice of one of his father's companions speak to him. "The messenger, Gwenefiere of Ombra, she sent him," The dying words were etched in his mind. He would find this being and seek revenge. After killing five thousand citizens of Ombra Di Notta in a sneak attack, the Queen, Gwenefiere, clarified the situation, informing Vorhen that the Dark Wizard had fooled her as well. Declaring vengeance, all of Valyssop was searching for the Dark Wizard. Too prideful to stay in hiding, the Dark Wizard took on the challenge proposed by Vorhen. Fighting the attack from the Dark Wizard, Vorhen eventually, and with great casualties, subdued the Dark Wizard, forcing him to return to hiding. Taking responsibility, Vorhen claimed his place as leader. With the great Victory against the Dark Wizard and the immortality from his demi-goddess mother, all of Arianrhod desired Vorhen to lead them even at such a young age. He did so with honor and unity, passing these values on to the citizens of Arianrhod.
