The Belligerents set a plan in motion to free the Drakadog from the clutches of the Golden Guard by trying to accuse Vainya of tampering with the beast before the battle
Vainya felt particularly betrayed while the Golden Guard put a stop to the proceedings to bring in a Cleric to cast spells to determine if the Drakadog had been poisoned or worse
The Drakadog reacted poorly to having spells of Detect Poison cast upon it and attacked the Golden Guard, setting in motion a battle in which the Belligerents fought against the Guard and Vainya simultaneously, Vainya still trying to prove herself, not wanting to miss her chance to join the Stand expeditions
Flapjack made clever use a Darkness spell to help cover an escape out of the arena by the group and into the streets of Serenity Shore, but not before creating a scenario in which Vainya was made out to have taken a shot at the Captain of the Golden Guard, ruining her chances to join them once and for all
Raithe ran out ahead of the group with Drakadog, who lead them both to the walls of Serenity Shores overlooking the Stand
Drakadog made a hole in the wall and jumped into the Stand below, followed by Raithe
When the others arrived, Flapjack and Huckbi jumped down with them, into the plains below, but not before Vainya also followed, intent now with fury to kill the Drakadog
Druvigan stayed behind, wanting to find the Speaker they were sent to the city to protect before giving chase after his companions into the Stand and the very edge of the realm of Ephemereldion
