Greer and Lord Castleroy are reunited in The Darkness. At the First Light Banquet, Greer attends Lord Castleroy's planned dinner for two, with Leith serving them. Castleroy points out that he avoided including pepper in the meal, since he knows that Greer wasn't that interested in it, and he wanted to prove that he was a man that had more going on than his occupation. Just as Leith pours them some more wine, Castleroy's sleeve catches on fire and Leith uses a table cloth to put it out; Greer checks on Castleroy before tending to Leith and Castleroy praises the boy's courage and selflessness.
The next day, Greer joins Lord Castleroy on the balcony and while she thanks him for his generosity in giving Leith the apprenticeship in Spain when she asked, she can no longer accept kindness from him and rejects his advances once again.
