A strange sight is seen by all those in central Shadowdale. A man dressed in silver, purple, and black armor is seen leading another man through town and into the Old Skull. The armored man is armed and the other man is covered in blood, but shows no signs of injury. They stop long enough to inform a guard of their arrival and to give some quick instructions to him before moving on towards the inn. The guard is seen heading towards the north with a rather sick look on his face.
Several minutes after the pair enter the inn, the armored man comes out and has a quiet talk with Commander Cruven. Shortly there after, a group of militia men are seen leading the bloody man from the inn towards the Hounds' keep.
