Chief Rygorr's Head

[Buhbuh]

If you fail to protect Garadain on the 8th ring encounter but succeed in slaying Chief Rygorr/ looting his head, will the Garadain in the hut accept it after the war is over with, or are you essentially up shit creek?

I have the head from an encounter where the script didn't fire off correctly because of "a rygorr messenger" disrupting the left side of the dwarven guards just as they were meant to charge in and protect Garadain as he walked up the middle. But I haven't tested whether or not this head will work with a different Garadain (since the event one is different/ spawned). Has anyone else tried this yet?
