The Vestige participated in the Footrace of the Nine Holds, along with 8 other racers. During the race, a runner called Hadring was seriously injured by an assassin who quickly and stealthily escaped the scene, and no one saw the incident because Hadring was attacked in a tower.Events of "The Konunleikar"
