In Chapter 21, the raiders bring their prisoners to Torquilstone, where De Bracy seeks Rowena and Bois-Guilbert claims Rebecca, while the captives are confined separately. Cedric recalls Saxon greatness and offers ransom, Athelstane challenges their host, and a powerful horn summons interrupts their meal and stirs activity throughout the castle.
