Coinner (amongst the many other wrongs he's done to Chiv) lifted some valuables off him in TC then ran away, I sent my bird to track him and followed him, eventually I catch up with him and his buddy Shumpster:
>n[Northward Trail, Shelf]
Strong winds blow over the shelf, bringing with them a bitter, numbing cold. A few scrub pines cling desperately to the slopes above and below, apparently the only plant life able to survive the harsh conditions of this mountain. Not far to the north, a large boulder sits on the trail. You also see a fur-lined horned helm, the Coinner disk and a fur-lined horned helm.
Also here: Shumpster, Lord Coinner
Obvious paths: north, south
>neYou can't go there.
>n[Northward Trail, Shelf]
Delicate snowflakes dance in the air, swirling. A large boulder has broken off from the mountainside and now sits upon the shelf, blocking the trail. Crowned with a layer of snow, the boulder nearly touches the slope rising up at its side. Only a slim crevice between the two allows passage beyond. You also see the Zosopage disk and a frost giant.
Also here: Zosopage
Obvious paths: south, northwest

A gust of wind tugs at your sleeves. Suddenly, a fierce wind rips through the area, scattering everything in its path and making it difficult to remain standing.
The wind knocks you off your balance and you fall over.
Your arms are forced down to your sides!

He is stunned!
Chivalrous is forced into view!
A burst of frost from a frost giant's freezing ball of pure cold flies off and hits you!
... 30 points of damage!
Icy blast to neck freezes your words in mid-speech and leaves you speechless...permanently!
You feel the extra courage wane.
You feel the aura of confidence leave you.
You return to normal color.

The air about you stops shimmering.
The powerful look leaves you.
The layer of protection fades away.

You are no longer moving silently.
It seems you have died, my friend. Although you cannot do anything, you are keenly aware of what is going on around you...
You realize that you have no outstanding favors which Lorminstra owes you, and without having accomplished a deed for Her, your soul is in danger of vanishing from the land forever!
...departing in 14 mins...
>You are a ghost! You must wait until someone resurrects you, or you decay. Either way, it won't be long now! (HELP for more details).

I just had to laugh at that, the stupid giant rolls a 99 and it blooms off Shumpster and kills Chiv. I left Coinner's laughter in there just to illustrate how annoying he is.
