→Summary
They traveled to Tarrigata's home in the run down part of the Outer Palace districts, and situated above The Maw, known as the Swathe, where they dispose of Kabe's body. While harvesting his organs to help preserve their own lives, Heruk and Vezulah reflected on their prior glory as the worked. After finishing, Tarrigata told Heruk that the warrior owed a debt to Clev for interrupting the fight then ordered him to find what happened to Gairok, another Thunder Warrior who was missing and due to fight. As Heruk left, the Custodian Tagiomalchian, an Ephroi, departed in a Coronus grav-carrier from the Tower of Hegemon on orders by Valdor to hunt down someone dangerous.{{fn|1}}
Heruk experiences a flashback to the battle at Abyssna, with Vezulah calling a charge for the Thunder Legion to battle. Gairok pointed out that the Custodians were fighting besides them as they took down the northern tower. The Thunder Legion was able to penetrate the tower and enter into hand to hand combat, routing the defenders but Heruk takes a shot to the head in the dream and wakes up at the Silo, a bar in the Swathe, with Gairok standing above him. Looking around, Heruk saw the many bodies that he assumes Gairok cut down in his hallucination. Unable to wake Gairok up, he comes under attack before Heruk stabs Gairok in the chest with his sword. As Heruk leaves the bar with Gairok's body, Tagiomalchian drops from his ship, near his prey in the Swathe, and he receives his order to kill his prey.{{fn|1}}
Arriving back at Tarrigata's home, Heruk finds it aflame. As he enters the place, he immediately starts experience flash backs to Arat, Hy Brasil, Urhs, and Albia before pulling himself back to reality. Busting into the place, he was able to find Tarrigata, rescuing him as the preserved organs of the Thunder Warriors were destroyed. Before dying, Tarrigata gave Heruk a rad pistol but was unable to answer any questions. As Heruk assumes it was Vezulah who caused the destruction, Tagiomalchian arrives at the Silo and examines the destruction, finding chaos markings on a body.{{fn|1}}
