Line 32: Line 32:
During one of many enemy assaults on 'Darsam's familial keep, his uncle was captured by the powerful sea lord and rival kaidon, [[Nesh 'Radoon]]. In response, Kel dutifully invoked the "[[right of release]]" and set off to liberate Orok. Without a navy of his own, Kel sailed alone to infiltrate 'Radoon's keep in the cover of night. After scaling the walls of the keep and slaying his rival's best swordsmen, Kel and Orok raced to make their escape. As Kel prepared to dive off the keep's wall to safety, he was mortally wounded when a spear struck him in the back. As he fell to his death toward the waves below, Kel was touched by the rising light of his divine father and was then transformed into pure light.

At least two versions of the ballad exist,and modern Sangheili are unsure who threw the spear that struck the brave hero down. One version claims that Nesh 'Radoon himself is responsible for throwing the spear. In the other version, Kel is said to have been betrayed by his own uncle. This telling holds that the entire capture was an elaborate ruse designed by Orok, who was fearful that Kel would one day decide to claim his title of kaidon.<ref name="soi23">'''Halo: Shadow of Intent''', ''page 23'' (Google Play edition)</ref>
