I thoroughly enjoyed Lord of Runes just as much as all of your Pathfinder fiction, thank you Mr. Gross.
I've read all in order to date and unfortunately for me find that I'm craving for more of Varian and Radovan.
There were two situations though that puzzled me towards the end of Lord of Runes, which I feel could have used a little more detailed descriptions and information about what was happening from the moment the group entered the Cenotaph until the very end.
I understood that Zora had left with Kaid and the Gray Maiden mercenaries to go back to Korvosa or even potentially Kaer Maga if the ladies were feeling merciful towards the thief/mage.
But the two unexpected occurrences for me were that Zora was with Radovan and the group when they were in the Cenotaph and then later on Kaid and the mercenaries came to the rescue when the group was attacked by Orcs.
Can you please explain the surprise appearances as I seem to have missed the explanations ?
