Pahoran’s Assassination

Part of: Zarahemla’s Age of War

• Paanchi’s supporters hire employ a man named Kishkumen, who breaks into the judicial office, murders Pahoran, then escapes without being caught.
• Kishkumen reports back to his employers, and they all take vows of secrecy; they then intermingle with the unsuspecting Nephite population.
• With Pahoran murdered and Paanchi sentenced to death, the last remaining brother, Pacumeni, assumes the judgment seat.
