However, both Mal and Alina are kept safe from physical harm as Sturmhound declares to the darkling that neither one of them shall be harmed or the deal that they struck would be canceled. To help him find Rusalye, The Darkling blackmails both Mal and Alina to cooperate with the search or he will hurt either one of them. The Darkling is aware of Mal’s tracking abilities and that he is an equally capable tracker on the sea as he is on land. The second amplifier is a sea dragon known as Rusalye or otherwise known as The Sea Whip. The Darkling takes them to Sturmound’s ship, who is a notorious privateer, to find the second amplifier which he plans to give to Alina. He later reveals that he was able to track them because of the trail of expensive payments that Alina and Mal left behind while they were fleeing from Ravka.
With his newly found power, the Darkling was able to capture Alina and Mal. Alina tries to fight the Darkling but she realizes that he has grown stronger and he now can summon creatures that are unafraid of sunlight, the Nichevo’ya. However, their plans fail because the Darkling manages to track them in Cofton. During their stay in Cofton, they started to take odd jobs to finance their escape from their Darkling. They managed to escape and find refuge in Cofton, a town in Novyi Zem. The second book of the Shadow and Bone trilogy is Siege and Storm and it takes place after Alina and Mal flee from the Darkling.
