After promising to return Rian to skekMal once finished with him, skekSil destroyed the evidence of Mira's draining by drinking the contents of the stolen vial. In response, he recruited skekMal the Hunter to retrieve Rian and regain his position. SkekSo gradually wearied of the Chamberlain's calls for moderation in harvesting Gelfling essence, and entrusted his former position to skekVar. ![]() SkekSil then thwarted skekTek's attempt to out him out for the vial's loss by weaving a tale of half-truths so that the Scientist would be punished instead, later giving him a pair of Gruenak slaves as compensation. Although Rian evaded capture, skekSil managed to detain Gurjin. In the ensuing argument, Rian and Gurjin took the vial and attempted to escape. He later infiltrated skekTek's laboratory to steal the remaining essence, but was discovered.
