So the treasure is real, extremely powerful, and ludicrously valuable. Portable too. Stunt hit the jackpot.

Too bad it's also wanted by an extremely powerful giant flying manta ray super wizard with ambiguous goals. That already nearly killed him.

I'd complain about the comic propping up Miranda again, but Rillian relying on her to do his dirty work has precedence. He did it in the backstory when he tried to get her to go mama bear on Helixa.
