- As the party enters the Golden Feather they hear a loud shout. "Thalgarr Stonefist! I have hunted you, and now I have found you. It is time for you to pay for your crime! You caused me this pain, and now you will pay!" The party turns to see a rather large human male dressed in plate mail and wielding a longsword approaching them. He looks to be in his mid-50s with salt and pepper hair. His kite shield bears the diamond red and white checkers of the western Harn Laranian church. He has a red and white checkered cape depending from his pauldrons. He is accompanied by four warriors who appear to be northmen.
- He tells Thalgarr to take the fight outside, and his crew leaves the inn. The warriors push poles with lit torches into the ground and clear people away from the center to make a place for combat.
- Thalgarr steps up and says "You are the one who stabbed ME in the back! You kept me as a slave!"
- The two engage in one-on-one combat. It is quickly clear that the older Laranian has superior skills. He does not hit hard, but he hits often. Thalgarr hits hard, but misses much more than he hits. In the end, the Laranian knock the Agrikan out. He takes a knee and prays loudly in thanks to Larani for granting him this vengeance. A column of dim white and red swirling light beams down on him and he looks up into the light, smiling. He spreads his arms as if taking in the glory.
- As his warrior companions drag the unconscious Drughu toward the piers, the Laranian knight empties a bag onto the ground. Pauldrons pour out, and they have red indicators of rank on them. Hjalgrim tells the rest of the party that those indicate a high rank, maybe even Grand Master. When the knight reaches down to grab the pauldrons his hands sizzle and the smell of burnt flesh fills the air. He stifles a scream, drops his head, and sighs. He nods. He pushes the pauldrons back into the bag and follows his companions to the docks.
