Story
Talhand takes part in Paul's expedition into the labyrinth on the Begaritt Continent — a desperate attempt to rescue Zenith. In a deadly fight with the labyrinth's guardian he is gravely wounded (blood pouring from him), but he survives. After the tragedy that claimed Paul's life, he stays close: he carries the wounded Roxy up to the surface and regrets being a burden.
After the party that included Talhand disbands, he does not vanish from Rudeus's life: together with Geese he repeatedly commemorates the fallen and throws drinking parties (for instance, before a grave), for which the caretaker scolds them both. Rudeus's friends often dream of inviting “Talhand and Geese as well” to a real celebration.
