The Assiday of Raibanth family, IIRC.

Let me add something out of my campaign (so IMO, not official, YGWV etc.). Euglyptus made an enemy of Jomes Wulf, too: he envied him and so created a scandal (using a well-paid courtesan woman as the main tool) to force him abandon the army and the political career. Euglyptus married the woman (secretly) and then sent her to seduce Jomes, causing him to fall in disgrace by "discovering" the tresque. So he had an excuse to order Jomes to retire after the Telmori campaign.

Apparently, Euglyptus had a talent to choose his lieutenants well and another one to dispose them off.
