To me it read like a bit of inspired luck that surprised even the author. I'd say keep it; in my experience (which, granted, is when I have control over all characters concerned) the characters usually know what they're doing more than we do. Though Harreld's going to be regretting this!!
I'm looking forward to seeing the fallout, and how this eventually gets resolved.
Getting some other writing done tonight, but if I'm on a roll I might get a post up for Wynflaed. At the very latest I'll get something done by Sunday.
