How Elam joined the Tourney

Elam shot a tree near the intruders with an arrow and told them to leave. When Daryun told Elam that its him, Elam went near Daryun and apologised for his behavior. He accompanied them to Narsus’s hideout. Narsus accepted them into his home. Elam prepared dinner for everyone. Narsus told Arslan how he defeated the Alliance of Three Kingdoms without a single soldier. Narsus then talked with Daryun about Atropatene and Daryun told him that he should stop making bad paintings and help them. When Arslan asked what he should do, Narsus told him to abolish slavery.

In the morning, Arslan tried to help him in the kitchen but ended up breaking lots of plates and making more work for him. He talked with Elam about his parents who were former slaves and asked him if he should free all the slaves or not, and Elam told him that he needs to find his own answer. Before breakfast, Kharlan’s men came. When Daryun told him that they passed near Kharlan’s castle on their way, Narsus got furious and said that Daryun was trying to force him to cooperate with them. Before the men entered, Arslan and Daryun hid themselves. They offered a position for Narsus, but he refused the offer and captured them with a trap. When he saw Arslan crying, he stated that they should have breakfast. While they were eating, Arslan wanted Narsus to join him and said that he will make him Court Painter. Narsus gladly accepted this offer. Elam also wanted to come but Narsus didn’t want him to. But Arslan also accepted Elam into their company saying that no one can cook as good as him.

Elam packed their stuff and they left the house and headed for Ecbatana, but Kharlan’s men were waiting for them, so they took shelter in a cave. They talked about their strategies and Narsus stated that Ecbatana is most likely under attack. After waiting for a while, they left the cave.

Monthes after Rajendra is taken prisoner, Elam hears the awakening of an evil spirit, Kai. Kai wants to steal the chi of those from Lusitania and Pars, starting with Elam.
