After arriving in Wallachia, Siveth tried to help the poor people who were suffering from the war. Although she did not trust Razvan, the king of Wallachia, she hoped to convince him to continue negotiating with the enemy but the arrogant monarch ignored them, which reinforced the dragon's mistrust of him to the point that 'she suspected him of sending infiltrators to start the war.
One day, Razvan went to the front lines and was badly injured so he asked Siveth to share his heart with him to save him but she refused to do so. unbeknownst to all, Siveth had already shared his heart with a young boy who suffered a cart crash that killed his parents, an accident Razvan deliberately caused when he was transported to his castle. The vile king survived despite everything and made Siveth look like a traitor in the eyes of the people, driving her into exile.
During her exile, Siveth received a visit from Darius who had been guided by their bond and the young boy wanted revenge for the death of his parents whom he believed to be the work of a one-eyed man he had seen because of the standard of the chariot that the king had used to kill his parents. Knowing that he would be killed if he knew it was Razvan responsible, Siveth did not reveal the truth to Darius and help him in his quest for revenge.

Dragonheart: Vengeance[]
Thirty years after the start of her exile, Siveth receives a visit from a young man named Lukas wanting her help to avenge the death of his family killed by four vile assassins. Siveth however advises him to give up his resentment but faced with Lukas' refusal, Siveth refuses to help him.
Transformed into a white horse, Siveth joins Lukas as a means of transport without the human realizing her identity. While searching for the assassin known as the Bear, they are soon joined by Darius. Before even being able to launch the offensive against Bear and his men, Siveth reveals her identity when Darius begins to tell lies about her, leading the two to trick Lukas into choosing only one individual opinion on what to do next. After Darius ends up leaving, Bear launches a surprise attack on the trio but the minions are quickly defeated by Darius and Siveth while the assassin falls to his death. Siveth comments that death is horrible no matter who earned it. The strap and the human continue their journey to find Wolf for a few days. Along the way, Luka questions Siveth on several points, including why she didn't help the king but Siveth turns the conversation away to Oana, Luka's crush while philosophically stating that what matters is not what. but what someone does with their life. At nightfall, Luka asks Siveth what his native country looks like. She states that it's foggy and full of farms, prompting Luka to talk about her life before the drama. Siveth adds that the punishment is not an end in itself and that she especially wants to be proud of her life before joining her fellow human beings in the stars.
Upon awakening, they are ambushed by Wolf and his minions and manage to beat them, leaving only the Wolf. Before Luka can kill the assassin, Siveth advises him to keep him alive for information. Guided by Wolf, they come in sight of a house that Darius storms just to be confronted with the Snake and her gang. Siveth comes to lend him a hand by freezing the enemies. She then saves Luka from an arrow before preventing the Wolf from taking a horse, severing his arm in the process. Seeing Luka in bad shape, Siveth throws an ice shot at Snake but Luka knocks him out, letting the shot reach Darius, thus echoing on Siveth and revealing the connection between them. Darius then expresses to Luka that his resentment towards the strap comes from his refusal to help him stop the "one-eyed".
The next night, Darius urges Luka to eliminate Snake since his information is worthless, only for Siveth to remind him of his eavesdropping promise, advising him to bring the woman to town instead. When Darius continues to influence Luka towards the path of vengeance, Siveth ends up admitting that "one-eyed" never existed and that the only one responsible was the king. Following this revelation, Luka and Darius drop their assassination plan.
The next day, Snake is taken to jail and after dark, Siveth helps Luka flirt with Oana. She later finds a Darius having been beaten up by the king's men and comforts him. Joined by Luka, Siveth exposes his idea of revealing the shortage issues to bring down Razvan to prove that she had been right all these years. Unfortunately, Scorpion makes Snake escape before setting off a terrible fire. Once the fire is out, Luka blames Siveth because if he had killed Snake instead of listening to the strap none of this would have happened. When the boy leaves in anger, Darius assures Siveth that he will stay with him while Siveth tries to find the papers proving that Razvan hired the assassins.
In the form of a cat, she infiltrates the castle but drops her mission feeling that Darius is in danger. Joining her friends while flying, Siveth arrives just after an injured Darius is killed Scorpion and Snake puts Luka in critical condition. Mockingly taunted by a Snake capitulating for her ever-shrewd principles, Siveth ends up letting her anger explode and crushes Snake to death. His life hanging on by a thread, Luka apologizes for letting revenge consume his heart as Darius implores Siveth to take back his half of her heart and give it to Luka. Unable to do this, Siveth takes Luka away while Darius voluntarily stays behind them.
Siveth takes Luka to the same monastery where she had deposited Darius many years before. Some time later, Razvan and his army enter the monastery where the king orders the dragon to return to exile before falsely accusing Luka of having escaped Snake. Siveth then accuses Razvan of having ordered the assassins' attacks. Darius then arrives with Wolf and the assassin confesses that the corrupt king not only orchestrated the border wars but with the sole aim of becoming more popular. As Razvan orders his archers to prepare to shoot, Siveth pledges her protection to all who still have things to say. One by one, everyone who was involved in Razvan's plans admits the truth, ending the vile king's reign. After the arrest of Razvan and Wolf, Siveth donates the food she had taken care of preserved during her exile to the peasants, ending the famine.
Siveth is last seen at the party held at Luka's now rebuilt farm, jokingly hoping that there will be another party tomorrow.
