- The Capture is the fifth scenario in The Sword of Frost, the eighth part of Heroes Chronicles. Tarnum and his troops moved fast to catch up to Gelu, but Gelu's friend Ufretin prepared an ambush and caught them unaware. After nearly crippling Tarnum's army, Ufretin pulled back and gave him the opportunity to surrender. Instead, Tarnum decided to dig in and rebuild his forces. When a messenger demanded his surrender, Tarnum broke the man's jaw and told him that his boss should make sure he was dead next time, because he would never give up. Tarnum reflected on how good it felt to shatter the man's jaw with his knuckles, and how frightening that realization was.

Tarnum reflected on how good it felt to shatter the man's jaw with his knuckles, and how frightening that realization was. Neez and Kilkik, Tarnum's beholder advisors, brought some troglodytes before him and told him they'd lost 2100 gold they were supposed to transport from one of his mines. A group of elves had stolen it while they slept. Tarnum knew that in Nighon, the penalty for a mistake like that was death, but since he didn't want to kill them, he told them that he'd seen in a dream that if he killed any of his troops that day, he'd die in his next battle. He hoped they would take it as another sign of his supposed insanity, but the look on Neez's face told him he wouldn't get away with it. So he sent the troglodytes out on their own to capture Ufretin, and sent Neez along to make sure they accomplished their mission or died trying - most likely the latter. One morning, Kilkik came into Tarnum's tent with a menacing look on his face to tell him that the troglodytes had been ambushed by elves - the troglodytes were dead, as was Neez. Tarnum told him that he'd hired a new bodyguard: Trongar, a massive black minotaur king. Kilkik realized that Tarnum was twice as powerful as before. When the beholder left the tent, Tarnum thanked Trongar for arranging the ambush, and asked whether the medusas had used elven arrows. Trongar confirmed that they had, and that they were grateful for this chance to get on his good side. Tarnum could feel his guts twisting with shame when he thought about how easy this treachery was for him. With the power of his army, Tarnum defeated Ufretin's forces and captured the dwarf.
