Ylt has "tactically relocated" into Lower Rathalas, trusting his Lieutenants to put paid to the rebellion that our party was able to stir up and intentionally putting Taln's Honorblade far from hostile hands.
Caught off-guard and effectively betrayed by their leader's use of Surgebinding to remove himself from the fray, the gold-and-green clad "cultists" have been subdued.
While not cultists, the victors this day are still bandits, each and every one a fugitive from justice. Also, perhaps more importantly, a fanatic wielding one of the most powerful artifacts on Roshar may still be within reach, having retreated further underground.
