## Synopsis

Aragi is deep in the hunt. He’s still reeling from the death of Aguero, his “brother”. He returns to Camp where he is greeted by Artiss… his brother. He shrugs him off and continues to leave again. Artiss follows, attempting to tell him the story of finding him but Aragi is not phased. Darrow and Locus sneak behind, seeking gossip. Aragi eventually snaps and punches Artiss, demanding he tell him why he’s here and who he is. He tells him about their father and his mother. Aragi calms down and begins to believe him. Artiss mentions he now works for Aragi and doesn’t understand the hype behind Phylyco. Aragi breaks from his funk and immediately leaves to see Lara. Phylyco is enjoying rest in his tent. He is rudely awoken by Aragi barreling through the camp. He investigates and spots Artiss following him. He in turn, follows. The brothers arrive at Lara’s tent as she and Aragi embrace. She notices Artiss next to her man and immediately sees the resemblance. Phylyco steps in and the brothers leave, Artiss less than impressed. The tension builds. Phyl tells Lara to hold on for a second and he follows the disrespectful man. Artiss is looking for Ameila and before they can speak Phyl busts him in the knee with a metal rod. Artiss drops to the ground in front of Amelia as the Platinum Basilisks shatters his kneecap. He shows his teeth and leaves the man to suffer. Amelia rushes to him and attempts to get him to the infirmary. Aragi visits the saint and sees Echo guarding a large box. He realizes what’s inside and gets sad again, then asks Hylophagous what the plan is. The boss mentions they plan to bring it to the mausoleum.

Locus and Darrow are playing a dice game. The Halfling has no idea what he’s doing as Mal approaches. They convince him to play. Darrow wins and bumps into Aragi. They talk for a bit and Aragi respects him for his namesake alone. Mal keeps messing up Locus’ name so the halfling leaves in a huff. He finds Phylyco and demands he let him “kill them all”. Phyl just wants to sleep. He leaves and Aragi enters because of course. He asks the man not to kill Artiss because he is “probably” his brother. He agrees, barely. Amelia gets Artiss to the Doctor. The next morning Phylyco speaks to the Saint about getting blades for his team. He asks if they’re truly ready and the man says no, but they need to get back to work. Darrow and Locus go hunting and stumble upon a dire wolf at a cliffside. Aragi visits Artiss in the med tent and warns him to respect Phylyco. He is still stubborn about it, but realizes it’s benefits and complies. Darrow messes up the hunt and causes the dire wolf to fall and takes Locus with it. Before they can mourn the little one however, he reemerges with large raven wings and lands, placing them back in the poncho position they were. Darrow is not too shocked.

Phylyco visits Artiss and continues to attempt to intimidate the man. He leaves, successful. Darrow asks about the wings but Locus is not keen on telling that story. They arrive back and Aragi approaches them. They share some small talk and it leads to Darrow’s siblings. He mentions Sera and Aragi is quick to inform him of her demise. The barbarian stops in his tracks and goes silent. Aragi then mentions that she has been avenged. He does not show emotion. They move on. He approaches Phylyco and requests leave to retrieve his sister’s body. He is denied and told to wait until they arrive back in Aethel. Amelia is conversing with Mort. They talk about the upcoming baby, briefly. He also tells her to stay on Phylyco’s good side. Darrow spars with Aragi and Lara. Locus retrieves Phylyco and the man decides to join in stead of step in and stop it. He knocks out Darrow and spartan kicks Lara. Hard. This is not something Aragi appreciates and they go blow for blow. It seems like someone will definitely die if they keep it up. Hylophagous stops it and sends Lara and Darrow to the infirmary. He calls for the two “leaders” to join him in his office.

They enter the Saint’s tent, beaten and broken. The boss tells them that they cannot afford to be almost killing each other in the street. There are too many new faces that will take this as common ground which is not okay. He asks for their hidden blades. Phylyco laughs and leaves. Aragi places his on the table. Hylophagous asks for him to retrieve Phylyco’s. He tells him to get it himself so he blasts him out of the tent. Phylyco returns and has an uncomfortable speech before punching the boss in the face. The saint doesn’t flinch as Phylyco is also launched out of the tent. They wake up in the med tent, all a bit more respectful.
