 ... his palace in Jamillia for the first time in generations in a bid to settle any ill feeling, tempers begin to rise espeically when foreign Chalcedean vessels start patrolling the harbour- extensively to protect merchant ships from piracy but just as likely for their own sinister motives as well. It seems as though the winds of change have started to gather and it looks as though no goodwill is meant for anyone involved....

Unfortunately for him, a previous wound (where a sea serpent took off a large part of his leg) has turned grangeous and oozes hot pus leaving him very close to death and extremely weak.
