During her brief wanderings, however, Deirane had formed a bond with Saalyn, the most renowned free warrior of Helaria. This formidable woman had already clashed with the slaver city and nearly brought about its downfall. Recently recovering from trials that had left her injured and traumatized, Saalyn had only just resumed her investigations. Though not fully healed, she remained a fearsome opponent. The king realized he must find a way to eliminate her, preferably permanently.
