Wax and Steris have their wedding six months after Wax defeated Bleeder{{book ref|mb6|3}}. Just before the wedding Wax is visited by the Kandra (presumably VenDell) who asks Wax for his help but is met with outright rejection. During the wedding ceremony, a water tower near the church has a structural failure and collapses, spilling water into the church that they were having the wedding, thus postponing the wedding.{{book ref|mb6|1}} Later the same day Wax is joined by VenDell, Melaan, Wayne, and Marasi, Vendell shows them a few images using an evanoscope and tries to inform them about the nature of investiture, identity, and the myths surrounding the bands of mourning. Vendell then reveals to them that she needs Wax's help in retrieving a spike that belonged to a Kandra named ReLuur. To encourage Wax to help VenDell shows Wax a picture of his sister being held hostage by his uncle, this spurs Wax into going to New Seran.{{book ref|mb6|3}} Wax's group immediately made preparations to go to New Seran and Steris joins the group and they board the train. On the train Wax and Steris engage in conversation where Wax finds out about the political situation in New Seran and that he is partially responsible for it.{{book ref|mb6|5}} The train that Wax and his group is riding on gets robbed, Wax and the others fight back.
In the ensuing fight, Wax works his way up to the courier cars at the front of the train, taking out most of the robbers on the train. Eventually, Wax reaches the courier cars and encounters a group of robbers that have thrown bottles of a noxious gas into the courier cars and have stolen the money in the cars. Wax heads into the courier car upon hearing that the robbers have a metalborn with them and then realizes that his metal reserves have vanished. He then fights a brute first in the car then on the roof of the train. Steris steps up on to the roof of the train and tries to shoot the brute with a shotgun but the kickback knocks her back off of the train and Wax jumps off to save her.{{book ref|mb6|7}} After saving Steris, Wax goes to clean up the remaining thieves and the brute. Wax dispatches the brute by using a sphere device from Ranette, wrapping the cord around the brute's leg and throwing it into some trees, yanking him off the train
