When Queen Lillie is kidnapped and taken to an island of dragons, Tarn is one of the bucks assigned to stay to guard the queen. Lillie broke out of her prison when she spotted her son, Lander, knocking Tarn to the ground as she did so.
As Tarn rose, he was confronted by Lillie, Galt, Massie Burnson, and Lander, who proceeded to interrogate him. At first Tarn refused, but after receiving a fist to the face from Massie, he relented. Just then, he noticed a dead dragon in the dragons' sacred pool and began to panic. As dragons emerged from the nearby forest, Lillie and company fled the scene. Tarn, left behind, was killed by the furious dragons.
