He told Nym " I ' ll have your head on a Pike " and every clan will hunt him down . It was revealed later that Nym only pretended to steal the chest from Jannik for the cameras and was in the middle of giving Jannik his share of the profits when Loreli approached them , hoping to recruit him to apprehend Sol Sixxa . Nym agreed .
