"Given how Dang Hu from Talon tried to extort information out of Sisu by threatening to lock her out of the city gates and at the mercy of the Drunn, it's not unlikely that she took the position of Chieftain from Dang Hai by tricking him, taking the gem-fragment from him, and luring him outside those gates as well and locking him out."
Okay, so someone has argued that this can't be true on account of being family and if they were removing a rival, why put the statue in a respectful position? Well, if they really were family, I'd argue that it would be more suspicious if they didn't do that. I will concede that I could be wrong but given members of Talon are quite well-known for being tricksters and the main characters encounter two fine examples of this (Noi, and Dang Hu), I really wouldn't put it past someone who is ruthless enough to leave someone to the Drunn.
