| - A teenage girl is being held hostage in order to blackmail Dan Briggs into kidnapping a key witness in the trial of a mobster (Frank Egan).
- The Ransom is the fifth scenario in Revolt of the Beastmasters, the seventh part of Heroes Chronicles. Earl Rambert left most of his prisoners behind when he fled from Tarnum's army, but he took Adamina and the other wisewomen with him as hostages. After settling in a hard to reach valley, he wrote a letter to Tarnum offering to free the wisewomen if Tarnum released Niven and then retreated. As Niven was now a friend and an ally, and retreating would take him right into Mad King Gryphonheart's armies, Tarnum didn't want to do either, but he knew that he needed to rescue the wisewomen to save the morale of his soldiers.

| - "I agree with Ser Hugo. Send our men to Roxton...though Rona should be prepared."
- "I have your daughter. It's careless of you to leave precious things lying around. The price of this lesson is 300 stags." - Lord Brus Roxton
- "Rona, surely you have thoughts on this."
- "Ser Hugo. I would have your advice on this."
- "We will not suffer the insult of abduction! The answer here is force, and quickly. Do not allow him to sense weakness or indecision!"
- "We'll see Rona's plan done... though Ser Ser Hugo should be ready."
- "Roxton is best handled with caution, for your daughter's safety. Allow me to send someone to negotiate."

| - A teenage girl is being held hostage in order to blackmail Dan Briggs into kidnapping a key witness in the trial of a mobster (Frank Egan).
- The Ransom is the fifth scenario in Revolt of the Beastmasters, the seventh part of Heroes Chronicles. Earl Rambert left most of his prisoners behind when he fled from Tarnum's army, but he took Adamina and the other wisewomen with him as hostages. After settling in a hard to reach valley, he wrote a letter to Tarnum offering to free the wisewomen if Tarnum released Niven and then retreated. As Niven was now a friend and an ally, and retreating would take him right into Mad King Gryphonheart's armies, Tarnum didn't want to do either, but he knew that he needed to rescue the wisewomen to save the morale of his soldiers. Droglo and Niven often practiced with their swords together, and Niven told Tarnum that he enjoyed the almost brotherly relationship. Mad King Gryphonheart had told his sons that whoever killed the other would inherit the throne, so Niven and his brother had been enemies since they were children. Niven was glad to have Droglo as a friend. Niven told Tarnum that they had to rescue the wisewomen, so they informed Earl Rambert that they would agree to the trade. Droglo dressed in one of Tarnum's armors, and together with Brellick, they put Niven in a cage and took him to the arranged meeting place. Meanwhile, Tarnum took his army close to Earl Rambert's land, hoping to draw away the majority of his army. Earl Rambert tried to ambush Brellick and Droglo with the remains of his forces, but Droglo's wyverns broke the ambush. Earl Rambert killed Brellick, but Niven escaped from his cage, picked up a weapon, and slew the noble. Niven and Droglo freed the wisewomen, and while Tarnum finished the rest of the late Earl's forces, Niven returned to Erathia to gather the dissatisfied nobles against his father.
