Once the Collection was completed, Braxiatel recruited Benny to work for him, shortly after which she accompanied him to mediaeval [[Blackpool]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Many Happy Returns (audio story)|Many Happy Returns]]'') He set a trap for the [[Comparative Religion Society]] by inviting them to dinner at the Collection, knowing that they would try to steal a book in his possession, and invited Benny without telling her his true plans.

When [[Daglan Straklant]] asked for Braxiatel's help, he refused as he did not want anything to do with the [[Fifth Axis]]. He accepted his offer of finding the other half of the [[Doomsday Manuscript]] to show good faith, but was alarmed upon finding that [[Josiah Vanderbilt]], whose invitation Straklant had, was murdered. He disguised himself as a Fifth Axis commander, took Benny prisoner and branded Straklant a traitor before returning to the Collection.

Wilburton]] ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Door into Bedlam (short story)|The Door into Bedlam]]'') and encouraged her to take part in a docudrama based on her life. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Digging up the Past (short story)|Digging up the Past]]'') He questioned Benny and [[Avril Fenman]] to determine which of them was the real Benny and allowed Avril to remain in the Collection living in her former tomb, something that Benny was unhappy with.

([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Professor Bernice Summerfield and the Extinction Event (audio story)|Professor Bernice Summerfield and the Extinction Event]]'') He later introduced her to [[Rupert Alouicious Barnstable Gilhooly|Dr Rupert Gilhooly]] and [[Igron Alsabalus|Father Igron Alsabalus]] and sent her to collect data from [[Tinker's Cuss]], after which he allowed [[Jason Kane]] to stay at the Collection.

While Benny was working at the Braxiatel Collection, a conspiracy started to form around Braxiatel.
