In the second book of the Eon series, Eon has been exposed as Eona, the first female dragoneye in 500 years. Eona, along with Lady Dela, and imperial shadowman, Ryko, must find the young Pearl Emperor, Kygo, and help him restore his place as the rightful heir to the throne. Eona also finds herself unable to control the ten dragons who have lost their dragoneyes, and forms an uneasy alliance with Ido in order for training and help. Kygo makes Eona his Naiso, conflicting their growing romance. Eona is also tormented by memories of her ancestor Kinra, and later learns there never was a contract with the dragons and that the dragons are in fact enslaved. Kinra had tried to steal the Emperor's imperial pearl in order to help the dragons. While trying to attack Sethon, the rebels are captured and Sethon makes to move the pearl from Kygo's neck. Ryko sacrifies himself to give Eona the power to interfere. Eona takes the pearl and tries to give it to the dragons, but Ido stabs Kygo in order to persuade Eona to keep the power with him. She refuses, Ido is consumed by the power, and the dragons are reborn. The Mirror Dragon heals Kygo.
