Might I make a suggestion?

It might add a little bit if added tension to the plot if he were to be found dead? Endar obviously has enemies, otherwise he wouldn't be using a false name. And this could be a way of bringing some of that to light. None of the other gladiators need to know this is significant (aside from... You know. Death) since it's not uncommon for people to sabotage a team, but since it's Endar's team....
