+    * [[yonlok|Yonlok]] nearly kills you before the two run out of the cave.
+  * Allow them to break free. The queen is not sure where your alliance lies anymore.

 Taking things upon her own shoulders, Queen Gimnax may very well need your aid during the [[battle_of_the_arcazion_pit|Battle of the Arcazion Pit]].
+==== The Scrying Pool (GS-Epilogue)====
+Following the [[battle_of_the_arcazion_pit|Battle of the Arcazion Pit]], the stories regarding Queen Gimnax's involvement in the actual battle vary widely throughout [[ulos|Ulos]]. Supporters and detractors of the queen tend to believe the stories that best suit their political affiliations.

+      * Some say she strangled a [[dragon|Dragon]] with her bare hands.
+      * Others claim she defeated an entire regiment of [[dragul|Dragul]] warriors on her on.
+  *  There are those who claim that during the battle, she lost her nerve and fled into the tunnels, leaving the fighting and the dying to others.
+At some point following the battle, Queen Gimnax visits [[gulpax|Gulpax]] in [[treetop_village|Treetop Village]], perhaps for the final time. She offers a dire warning:
+>//"I’ve banned the [[league of inventors|League of Inventors]]. Outlawed experimentation. I won’t let anyone else repeat your mistakes.”// - Queen Gimnax - The Scrying Pool (GS-Epilogue)
