You draw your Kai Weapon and Gildas unsheathes his sword, and together you attack the Autarch. Your heaviest blows fail to mark his armour and you are forced to retreat for fear of striking your companions.

If you choose to obey his command, turn to 35.

If you choose to refuse his command, turn to 338.
