Ascension of Darkness

---

When I came upon Marshal Kain, he and the traitor Alsbeth were quarreling. She laughed and welcomed him to stand at her side, and he slapped her for saying such things but did no more than that. He then turned to depart and saw me watching. He only paused a moment and said not a word to me. Then he walked past and left me to Alsbeth's minions. Do not worry for me - return to Thalin Tor and tell the others what I saw. I can get out of here on my own.

No! I will not believe it! Sir Isaak must be mistaken. He said himself, he slapped that witch Alsbeth for suggesting such nonsense! Captain Ledisko, Dame Levitia, and Sir Martyn are still searching for the Marshal. Perhaps they will report more hopeful news.
