After the failed rebellion Vahr was taken in for questioning. Hearing of Vahr's arrest [[Vasher]] saw he had a chance to get another large influx of breath and so set out to contact him. He persuaded Vahr to grant him his breaths so that Hallandren would not gain them and offered to in return kill Vahr so that he could not be tortured for additional information about Pahn Kahl's efforts.{{book ref|wb|prologue}}
 
==== Blue Fingers's Manipulation ====
 
By this time VaraTreledees had renamed themselves as Denth and began working for Bluefingers to help cause the war.{{wob ref|6723}} As part of these efforts he made contact with [[Lemex]], an Idrian spy, and made him assist the Pahn Kahl plot. Lemex grew increasingly reluctant and outspoken against the plot so Denth decided to kill him with poison.{{wob ref|6795}} At the same time Vivenna decided to hold a 'rescue mission' for Siri and headed to T'Telir herself, a message from her intended for Lemex was intercepted by Denth and his crew and they decided to go meet with her. He managed to gain her trust and convinced her that Lemex was dying due to disease, he was successful enough that he managed to kidnap her without her realising it.

Siri's arrival at the Court of Gods began to worry them instead of set their fears at ease. It was speculated by some that the last second swap may have been planned from the start and that deferring to the Idrian monarchy actually undermined their authority rather than strengthened it.{{book ref|wb|7}}{{book ref|wb|12}} One God who was concerned about this, [[Blushweaver]], was manipulated by Bluefingers into thinking Hallandren needed to prepare for immanent war. Falling for this she went and shared her worries with [[Lightsong]].{{book ref|wb|7}} She eventually managed to persuade him to her cause and together the pair worked to get as many lifeless commands as they could.{{book ref|wb|30}} Siri meanwhile also was being manipulated by Bluefingers who convinced her that he was the only person she should trust in the Court.{{book ref|wb|6}}{{wob ref|6723}} It was his original plan to use Siri to persuade the Idrians within the city that a rebellion was needed{{wob ref|6723}} but he changed his plans once he learned Denth had kidnapped Vivenna and had been using her to do the same thing and decided it was best to kill Siri instead to further anger the Idrians.{{wob ref|6723}}
 
Denth managed to convince Vivenna that war was inevitable and that together they could work to undermine Hallandren from the inside.{{book ref|wb|17}} Despite pretending to entertain her own plans to prevent the war Denth in actuality undermined or cancelled her plans when she wasn't paying attention and instead did what he could to worsen the situation and support his pre-existing plans.{{wob ref|6960}}{{wob ref|6795}}{{book ref|wb|19}} He and Tonk Fah also routinely killed soldiers sent by King Dedlin to retrieve Vivenna as they arrived in the city.{{wob ref|7284}} His efforts ultimately fell apart when he was forced to kill [[Parlin|a friend]] of Vivenna's and she discovered his corpse as well as the bodies of the soldiers sent by her father.{{wob ref|7284}}{{book ref|wb|35}} She quickly worked out their true intentions and escaped them.{{book ref|wb|35}}
