After a little over 4 years, when it was time for Fangharra to leave for another world, she got a message from her friend Fraeya asking for help.
Fangharra suggested Tarkal could go to try and see what she needed and most likely help her.
Tarkal, Seera and Ivory flew to the Capital city Iyancine of the Western Empire to meet with
Fraeya.
She lived in a remote house on a land that belongs to her, roughly 1 hour out North of Iyancine where she decided to raise 3 tiger cubs (her kids), but got news that her first daughter Tabitha had been taken prisoner by Thanas, a Pirate Captain near the free city of Troker, in the south. A rune sword called Trigom. The sword managed to find its way back to Fraeya and warn her about Tabitha's capture.
Tarkal accepted the mission and they all flew south towards Troker, following the coastline from the Western Territory of the South.
They encountered a few Pirate coves on the way, asking about Thanas, but all pointed to Troker.
Once in Troker city, Tarkal found Tabitha, using a Locate spell. She was standing guard to a small merchant at the market place, the merchant turned out to be Thanas, but strangely, Tabitha didn't want to be rescued. Tarkal managed to make them speak the truth and found out Tabitha was being possessed by Thanas's sister, whom was dying of some strange sickness no one could cure, but it turned out it was a curse, not a sickness, caused by the very same magical item she was using to take possession of other people.
AT some point, Tarkal said all he needed was to find her body to make her free Tabitha so he launched to try and find their ship and ended up fighting at the docks.
Troker guards intervened and through a special Rod of Trance spell, managed to capture both Tabitha and Tarkal to bring them before the King for judgment.
King Kai listened to their story and allowed them to try and find a deal, which they did, but King Kai also took Tarkal's Rune Item Phiscode for the trouble they caused.
Tarkal managed to deal with them so she would stop possessing Tabitha in exchange for him trying his best to help cure her and get rid of that curse and sickness.
He summoned Delleh to him and she tried to remove the curse, but then they found out about the Cursed Rune Item she was using.
Tabitha was freed and returned to her mother.
Tarkal wanted to meet King Kai to try and get Phiscode back.
He made a deal to 'serve' him as an ally, proving to him he had the means.
Kai then asked him to come back a few days later where Tarkal could use Phiscode to make other important alies of Kai tell the truth, but Kai didn't even make him use Phiscode, only introduced him to everyone.
King Kai then explained to Tarkal that he used a special rune item to produce temporal loops, during which he would remember everything, but no one else would. Using this magic, he was able to make everyone speak the truth without them even knowing that they had.
Tarkal, Seera and Ivory went back to see King Kai.
