The domain of Maridrar languishes in the Mists to this day. The happy ending of the book was not the one that occured, but instead the vampire darklord slew Randar and Krug with the bloodknife they hoped to use against him. Only too late did Velkaarn realize that the brothers had prepared a dying Vistani curse in the case of their failure: as Velkaarn had condemned the land to perpetual night, so he would be condemned to grope in darkness for his prey. Velkaarn and his vampire legions cannot see the living whose blood they crave.
With the most intelligent undead in the domain unable to find them, and the other undead easy to fool, the human population has rebounded. Humans still struggle in perpetual darkness, but they cling to hope, and pass down the legend of the gypsy-princes that gave their lives to cripple the blood-tyrant. With human pickings slim, Velkaarn has been forced to destroy all of his vampire servants and even hibernate while his undead servants round up enough humans to feed him. During one of these hibernations, a few daring villagers stole the bloodknife and fled into the Mists following visions of the reincarnated heroes of long ago.
