| - | Ælfric walks forward to be blessed by Warden [[people:Danfael Connors|Warden Danfael]]. The prayer and sermon is long and arduous, stretching beyond an hour. Although Warden Danfael is not a gifted orator, the strength of his faith is on display. After months of troubles and hopelessness, the true strength of The Light is felt by all in attendance. Standing just inside the door, Belenus starts a shout in support of young Ælfric, which also has the grace to cut short the rest of the sermon. | + | Ælfric walks forward to be blessed by [[people:Danfael Connors|Warden Danfael]].

| When Ælfric ascends the dais and receives the personal blessing by Warden Danfael the shouts reach a fever pitch. He turns to face the crowd and raises his hands to silence them. He speaks out against Lady Hapsteng, demanding the release of the [[people:Donat Lange|Lord Marshal]]. He has personally met with the Lord Marshal on several occasions and can speak to his godly nature. The Lord Marshal and now The Light has recognized his claim to the throne, which causes Warden Danfael to blanch, as the true son of Crown Prince [[people:Corwyn Reiner|Corwyn]]. | When Ælfric ascends the dais and receives the personal blessing by Warden Danfael the shouts reach a fever pitch.

| - | Belenus, Xarth, and the assassin are brought before [[people:Valten Scholz|Inquisitor Valten]] who has all three of them chained.

| Valten goes to the chamber where they are caring for King Æfric and orders everyone out of the room. When Gia passes by him his witch reacts and tackles the old woman to the floor.
