During Garin's first visit to Maraqua, he overheard Swordmaster Talek demonstrating the use of Maractite weapons to a group of Maraquans. Seeing the value these unusual weapons, Garin decided to steal a Maractite dagger from Talek's supplies. He was successful in this task and managed to slip away unnoticed.

After the pirates breached the city walls, Talek informs King Kelpbeard that the pirates have gained the upper hand. King Kelpbeard then orders Talek to empty out the armory and send out the third battalion.
