Sierra summons spirits to put into the junkyard murals that she and Robbie created, and she puts Manny’s into her dragon. The images come to life, and Sierra asks them to scatter the throng haints and protect her family: “She shut her eyes and became instantly aware of the many spirits working for her, as their vision was hers” (284). Sierra uses the energy of the spirits to locate her friends in the building, but she finds she can’t locate Wick. Wick sends throng haints to attack her, which drains her of some of her life force, so the good spirits step in to rejuvenate Sierra. Wick tries to convince Sierra that her grandfather destroyed the shadowshapers, not him, but Sierra won’t listen to his lies: “[…] you tried to take it from me. Tried to tear my own heritage away” (287). Sierra feels the spirits surrounding her, and she uses their energy to help destroy Wick’s throng haint as he watches on in horror.
