A mistaken identity leads to a run-in with a couple of mercenaries. Meanwhile, Ghim travels to find Karla and free Leylia from her control. After she tries to sway Parn to join her crusade of neutrality, Ghim faces her head-on.
Parn's group takes a back entrance into the mountain where they run into Ashram, his Dark Elf companion, and the great dragon who intends to leave no intruder unscathed.
