Zaiapani mercenaries, like Gheen’s father Reshma (not featured here), held the sea against Hadrakahn privateers and performed military support functions like garrison duty. Many received impressive cash payouts after the war, boosting the Zaiapani economy, though the cleverest (like Arduna) joined Jarjuna’s army directly in a bid to achieve field-officer status and acquire land after the war.
Anyone notice the sharp rock the Yig is palming here?
And no one tries to stab Barabon in the back on the way out? Wow, they really must be loyal…or worried that the WPK is about to explode…. 🙂
