  1. Book 7 This Inevitable Ruin

    Carl, Katia and Prepotente storm his temple to kill Vinata, but Vinata has summoned Khepri himself. He marks Carl for death, and both Carl and Vinata get temporary immortality. Another god later banishes him from the realm.

  2. Book 8 A Parade of Horribles

    In the final arena Carl summons Khepri, falsely telling Emberus that Khepri killed his son, so his crew can use the god's immortality effect. Taranis then sends Khepri home.
