==Chronology==

=== Volume 9 ===
Basal was introduced in [[Chapter 9.34]], as part of the mercenary force harrassing Drake cities after the battle at the [[Meeting of the Tribes]].<ref name=":0" />

The whole group makes it to [[The Wandering Inn]] on time for the final preparations for the winter solstice, during which Basal demonstrates more experience and foresight than Perorn's other officers. She internally remarks that he would be commanding his own unit already if he wasn't a Lizaur. <ref name=":2">Chapter 9.60</ref>

During the solstice battle, Basal is part of the Centaur force supporting the soldiers of [[Vaunt]].<ref>Chapter 9.67 (Pt. 1)</ref> As the battle progresses and things get more desperate, Perorn chooses to charge at [[Kasigna]] and, surprisingly, appoints Basal to lead in her stead.{{ref|9.67 Pt2}}

After the battle, Basal leads part of their forces to a funeral procession in Vaunt, honoring [[Gershal|Gershal's]] death. After holding a speech, he supports a vomiting [[Salvia]] and offers her Gershal's twice-enchanted sword as part of his will, which she accepts a few days later.<ref name=":1" />
