Chapter 5

Runaktla seeks to join the Scions of the Eternal Night.
His first encounter with anyone of the fold was with
Corilanth, a Necromancer of the Chasm. In his younger
yars he raided Akan several times with him and an orc
named Quorgan. After several raids an Orc named Thrawk
spoke to him, intending to kill and displace Corilanth
in the group. Runaktla disagreed simply because he had
enough problems trusting a single orc, let alone a pair
of them, and he had at least a small semblence of
patience when growing in power.

Runaktla later left the orc and necromancer, and he was
later attacked and slain by them. The orcs told
Corilanth that it was Runaktla's idea to displace him,
and Corilanth was angered.

Runaktla later extracted his revenge on Corilanth,
killing him and retrieving his more valuable items that
were lost. At this point Corilanth was a member of the
Chasm, and he threatened Runaktla, claiming that he
should not have made enemies with those of the Chasm.
Runaktla's retort led Corilanth to know that he intends
to join the Chasm, and he brushed aside the threat from
Corilanth that this would bar him from joining the
Chasm. His suggestion to Corilanth substantially said
that he greatly doubts that his membership in the fold
guarantees unwavering support from its leaders, both
mortal and immortal, and that he also highly
disbelieves that the Chasm's leadership would look down
on well-extracted revenge.
