Sigurd was among the captured, held was he under the examine of the masked woman as hope began to fade. Yet Strong was the magics of the Red Robed wizard that broke the wounded Rashemi band by chance, only to free the Northmen into the shackles of slavery. Under gaes he was bound by the words of Dimitri "Listen well, slave of Thay, for these words I'd say only once. You are bound now until dept is paid, to us the Red Wizards. Three things you must to for fill your sentence. Firstly Any deed, any task that is requested by Thay is to be completed. Secondly no harm bring you, to a child of Thay unless directed from men more important. Thirdly you must never speak of this contract to those who have not the marking of Thay."
All that is gold does not glitter.
All those who wander are not lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by frost.
