Suspicious Vrakhir in Svartrau

This quest account follows up with Nish after his patrol: he reported a suspicious new vrakhir

prowling about Svartrau, last glimpsed near the north-east wall — one not sworn to Brencis.

The creature proves elusive, or Nish withholds what he knows; the writer cannot tell.

The old goat is hard to persuade, but the writer persists, convinced that he and his folk — villagers, not guards —

being no friends of the knyaz, they might prove powerful allies worth keeping.
