"Ganelon had given himself up to the Ximchak hordesmen in order to protect Ishgadara and Grrff from being killed. Part of the deal was that the Flying Castle was to remain where it was now situated, with Palensus Choy promising not to enter Gompland with aerial Zaradon: in return for this, Turgo had sworn that the Barbarian hordesmen would not again enter Gray Dynast territory, or lay siege to Isle Trancore, and would respect the territorial integrity of the Mad Empire."
