Malor defeats Guerin

Awoken from a deep sleep by voices, Morwath hears, “You will cede to me all that I desire, including that which was once most dear to your heart.”

“And if I do not?”

“Your life is forfeit. This time, there will be no escape Dordraug – I am not a petty bloom that will wilt and be forgotten!”

Morwath is transfixed by an oriental man , middle aged, dressed in a deep purple kimono with a black and white obi (Malor). His hair is tonsured like that of a samurai and around his neck, carved from black sapphire and opal, is a woman’s face - half white, half black (Hel). In his hands is a vast black bastard sword, covered in dwarven runes and faintly glowing a purple-blue (Rakos). On his left hand is a ring with a prominent green gem (Ring of Earth) set in a band of pure white gold. A finger is missing from his right hand.

“I have much of the power that you once had, do not test me. You have something that I desire most keenly.” The oriental man points to Morwath (as the shard).

“Death is the only way I will be parted from my treasures.”

“Another soul for my Lady then!” The sword is whipped up and, in a huge arc, comes crashing down…

Interpretation: Iki Moko (Malor) draws his sword on Dordraug to take his artefacts, particularly the shard.
