A wild Annie Wells appeared! She had apparently been following the group the entire time. She attempted to lie to the guards in order to convince them to let her in. They were almost convinced, but gradually began to see through her lie, and instead knocked her out and imprisoned her. While in jail, she met my other character, Rilton, who considered helping her. But ultimately he decided against it, as he himself was about to be released, and Annie refused to heed his warnings about her upcoming execution.
But while all this is happening in Dormoor, Azi's vikings arrive via riverboat to another Iron Tribe settlement called Daralt. Fifteen of them visit and stay at the town itself, where they receive a warm, but wary, welcome - they are kept under guard and forbidden to carry weapons, but the chief also invited them to a feast and allowed them to stay the night. Meanwhile, another fifteen went to explore the countryside. The purpose of both groups was to find more information about the chosen one they had been hearing so much about.
Fast forward to the next day (if a world in constant blackness even has days), and Aylin, Joric, Rilton, and a few other unimportant soldiers have set out on her journey to... she hasn't actually told them anything yet.
They, the Vikings, and a group of Blood Tribe scouts have just stumbled across each other on the road, and a fight has broken out.
Meanwhile, Annie is being tried before the King who is willing to spare her life if she sells out her own tribe. And in Daralt, the Chief is currently holding a tournament for the Vikings there.
Beneath the gold, the Bitter Steel.
