Leads Saldaean forces that open Maradon's gates to rout the Shadowspawn, rescues the wounded Ituralde, and rides him into the besieged city while fearing political repercussions for his actions.
Walks through Maradon with Ituralde, reveals he killed countrymen and staged a revolt to seize the city, and initially demands execution before agreeing to swear to the Dragon and help defend the walls.
Warns Ituralde of aid approaching from his sister's watchfire and helps organize cavalry companies for the counterattack. He questions the tactical logic of allowing the enemy to anticipate their next move but follows orders to scatter forces.
