Shadow Bruja Duology

Lords of Night

Chalchihtlicue approaches Ren Santiago when the girl is on the shore of Lake Zirahuén and asks to be called Jade. As Ren reaches for the blade, Jade informs Ren she is the one who gifted shadow magic to her ancestors and Ren struggles with putting the goddess to sleep or learning more about her heritage. In order to get Ren to surrender, Jade then shows her images of her friends in battle and gives her a taste of their current emotional state. As Ren reaches for the blade, she guesses the goddess wants to make a deal, but Jade rebuffs this and says it is to make her more likely surrender. Just then, Zyanya emerges from the blade, before vanishing with Jade.

Dawn of the Jaguar

Ren pleads with her not to as the goddess reveals the only way to save them, save her friends, and retrieve the two halves of the crown is to marry the Prince Lord. Seeing no other option, the daughter of Pacific reluctantly agrees.

When it is time for the ceremony, she joins the other Lords and the wedding begins. After words are said, Serena moves forward to “tie the knot”. After she is finished, Smoking Mirror inspects the knot and finds it satisfactory. She proclaims that the Prince Lord is now the King Lord. After informing Ren that the crown will call to her that night as the moon vanishes, the Lords reveal that they are aware of Ren liberating the godborns and, since they escaped, her companions will be sentenced to death. Realizing that they planned this to break Ren's part of the agreement, Ren tries to fight, but Jade is Her Skirt reveals that the vial she gave Ren allows the goddess to control the godborn as Ren collapses to her knees. Soon Edison, now in his demon form, is brought into the chamber in chains and a blade materializes in front of him. Ren realizes this is the vision she saw of herself killing Edison in the Maze of Nightmares. The Lords watch in amusement as Ren panics and begs as Ren desperately tries to stop herself from taking hold of the blade. As the girl grasps the weapon and is about to deliver a fatal blow, Ren's hand starts to glow, shocking the Lords.

Soon Ren's allies arrive and attack the Lords. In the chaos, Edison is freed as Jade is Her Skirt and Smoking Mirror are incapacitated. The Prince Lord, still believing Ren is bound to him, throws the girl into the air as she transforms into a jaguar. When she sees the Lords will soon have the upper hand, she transforms back into human form and rips the thread from her ankle. Ezra manages to trap the gods for a few minutes as Marco tells everyone to retreat. They do, but Ren stays behind to help Edison. The Lords soon break free, causing rocks to block the only exit. However, Ren uses the thread to freeze the Lords in place and Edison teleports them out. After unfreezing, she and the other Lords become aware of the godborn's plan and set up decoys to meet them.

They travel to Devils Tower and imprison Marco, Serena, Monty, Diamante, and kenji in mirrors after letting them take the blow from Zyanya's magic. They fan out to search for their remaining adversaries and all but the Prince Lord are frozen in time when Ren and Ezra combine their magic. Having heard the Prince Lord’s confession, she and the other Lords confront him and subdue him before demanding the crown from Ren. Ren refuses to say and the gods reveal they caught Zyanya as the bird tried to awaken her companions. The Lords ask again and threaten to kill Ren and Zyanya. Seeing no other option, Ren unleashes her jaguar magic, freeing Zyanya knocks down the Lords. As they get to their feet, they attack Ren, however Edison attacks from behind and they combine their magic to take on the Lords. Soon Ezra, Marco, Monty, Diamante, Serena, and Kenji arrive and Ren instructs everyone to combine their magic. Once they do, the Lords start to struggle, but Zyanya cannot get close.
