What happened to the Princess of Wrath during the battle with Sophilus?
The Princess of Wrath, an ancient white dragon, engaged in a fierce battle with Sophilus. She was temporarily pinned down by Sophilus's telekinetic powers, causing her to bleed from her ears and mouth. However, she broke free and ultimately retrieved the Hexature Armament, a crucial artifact, before vanishing through a blue fissure in the sky.
What was the fate of Sophilus after the battle?
Sophilus was banished to his home plane by Taishen using the spell 'Banishment.' This occurred after the Princess of Wrath removed the Hexature Armament, which had been protecting Sophilus with an invulnerable shield. The banishment was described as Sophilus being consumed by golden dragon fire and disappearing from the plane.
What caused the destruction of Ogerton?

The city was completely obliterated, sliding into a crevasse below.
How did Yorneir deal with the tadpole that entered his skull?

What was the significance of the Hexature Armament in the battle?
