Orvannon, Orkandus and our other key players meet to decide how to battle the Warriors. Orkandus gives a field report on the enemy, and reveals that the Warriors are the creation of One-armed Blehhm. They plan a confrontation, aided by Orkandus's unspecified magic. The battle goes more or less as hoped, although Orvannon's bomb is a dud. Orkandus pays a great price for disrupting Blehhm's magic, and an old friend turns up. While the citizens of Shelton celebrate with a great bonfire, Orvannon and Raven quietly slip away.
