The group joined a caravan after saving the life of Boss Jari and were taken south to the Keshin Sea. Part of the travels involved the group being locked in a plushly decked out lead caravan after they observed Jari in negotiations with a warlock - who seriously wounded one of the Clan. After that time space and time were stretched and 'jumping' occurred that invoked a similar feeling when the Monks of Oba shadow stepped.
The group joined the caravan after after a dispute has turned deadly when Boss Jari of Clan Crokuz refused a deal and humiliated an opponent, Boss Necan of Tegbotho by disallowing a marriage agreement after lengthy negotiations between his eldest granddaughter and the son of a rival. Boss Jari has instead chosen to marry his middle granddaughter to the new head of the Zentarkis Clan, Boss Tinto.
Boss Necan retaliated by sending an assassin to kill Jari and kidnap his eldest grandson for ransom from Jari's son who is next in line.
Necan’s son Mektith manipulated his father the hot-headed Necan doing something stupid. If the marriage was to still go ahead he would occupy a prestigious position within Clan Crokuz, and if failed and Necan was revealed he could push to step in as the new boss of Clan Tegbotho as part of a peace deal.
