High Priest S'Rak is under suspicion of murder. Captain Jisten isn't sure if the Loftoni is innocent or guilty, but he's convinced that keeping Rak under guard is the best thing to do. Unfortunately, Rak doesn't agree with him. As the Lord of Madness toys with them both, their relationship grows ever more strained. Rak slips away from his guards more than once, and Jisten grows increasingly desperate to bring the wayward priest to heel.
