A fairworld criminal, Dragon Blake, brings his dwarf thugs and his brass dragon to Berlin. He breaks in, letting zombies out, which draws Doc Caliban's interest.
Blake is using a spell which resembles the Fade Power; every time he crosses over to the fair world, zombies nearby are deanimated. Apparently there are no undead in the fair world, so the lightest touch of their magic sets zombies free of their bodies.
Blake is robbing the german natural history museum of dinosaur bones, for some reason. A fight erupts, with the brass dragon breathing on Heinrich and Francis. They both go crazy!
Francis uses his Mover power to bring every gun in the building to his hands, then shoots them all at Blake and his dwarf buddies. Heinrich, meanwhile, tackles Black and Fades into the soil, then comes up without him. Blake, it seems, is marooned deep underground, probably fused with the bedrock.
Heinrich, still mad, then touches the portal spell to the fair world. The fair world is soaking in magic; it supplies him all the power he needs to Fade all of Berlin, causing all one million zombies to collapse, their long exile in their dead husks ended. Unfortunately, Fading that hard causes Heinrich to Fade completely out of existence, trading one life for a million trapped souls.
A statue of Heinrich is slated to go up on the Unter den Linden, carrying his trademark antitank rifle.
