While Sola's Vanguard camped on the Western shore of Eastlake, ser Tyon Cray discovered a battered, ragged man shadowing their camp.
This turned out to be ser Edam Bracks, Duke Brennar Hayford's Marshal, who had been missing since The Battle of Allerton.
He revealed that he had been captured by ser Kyra Crowler alongside ser Edgarth Hayford, Duke Brennar's son.
They had been transported by boat to Tayach Dam, from which ser Edam had just escaped. He was wracked with guilt that he had fled the castle before he could rescue ser Edgarth.
ser Sola Somercrag and ser Tyon decided to split the Vanguard - a small party to accompany ser Sola, ser Edam and Duke Brennar to the capital with all the haste they could muster to stand before the queen, and the greater part to accompany ser Tyon in riding to Tayach Dam to rescue ser Edgarth and, if she is still there, arrest ser Kyra Crowler for her treasons.
