[@Zeroth] That is perfectly suitable! How would you feel about Auguz having been captured by the Warden herself, after having murdered the regiment King Tyronde sent to capture him?

That would work perfectly, given the creep-factor the Warden seems to give off---she's the kind of "abstract" opponent that things like strength and skill don't seem to matter against, which would make Auguz salty as all hell because whenever he's "helpless" he flashes back to that moment the old orcish swordmaster had him publicly beaten as a child. I was planning for one of his long-term goals to be "can I find some way through swordsmanship to surpass magic?" and that would only be reinforced by having one of the Kingdom's most prominent magic users be the one to personally bring him down.
