Ikkūne Nattaxxawan, the supreme leader of Salmon Speaker Country, was on his way to Prefect Annu's office to discuss the events of the Hara Incident. He and his entourage had to take a detour from the main road, which had been washed out by a typhoon. They encountered Sorvin, as the path from his farm intersected the narrow road Nattaxxawan's party had taken. Nattaxxawan and his entourage ultimately ignored Sorvin and continued on their way to Biktāt, the prefectural capital. | Ikkūne Nattaxxawan, the supreme leader of Salmon Speaker Country, was on his way to Prefect Annu's office to discuss the events of the Hara Incident.
