The stairs ascend to a chamber lined with wooden racks covered with saddlery, lances, tack, and all manner of Kraan kit. A single Drakkar occupies this musty room. He is asleep on a chair near to a window which overlooks a landing platform and the city far below. You are tempted to take hold of the snoring guard and force him to tell you where Banedon is being held, but you daren’t risk being detected. If the guard should raise the alarm, your chances of finding and rescuing your friend will be greatly reduced.

If you possess the Discipline of Kai-alchemy, turn to 326.

If you do not, turn to 246.
