lady mercy won't be home tonight - written by Hart on the 11th of Cylus, 719 | 1 |
"116 undead attacked our house last night. they were stopped by our very dear friend, Qit'ria, who lost her life in the process. her baby, Caza, is here and is being protected. i found Qit, and i've spent last night and part of to-trial investigating the murder.
i have detailed notes on placement, measurements, we've retrieved wells? and i have experienced the death of each and every one of them. the majority of them were simply reanimated from death and had no information. however, there were 5 which gave us information. 5 tortured individuals, chosen to be made into specific and truly horrifying types of undead.
the woman in question is called Ellasin. i have seen her, i know what she looks like. i believe she is a lich?, but how in the name of all the immortals she gets to look so pretty and be one, i do not know. she's powerful. very powerful.
we have the soulstones? and the wells that she used. i am hoping that these will be able to lead us to her. so. cards on the table. they attacked because i am Famula's champion. i have been for a while. i have recently developed the ability to remove the necromancy spark from mages. i've used it here, in Rharne, when a necromancer had been working with an alchemist and created a plague which killed and then trapped souls. i guess we drew attention. so. that leads us to the plan.
the plan is to protect this place, these people. our children.
once we are sure that the people here are safe, which is being done as we speak, we investigate. we find her. i take her spark from

her and we bring her to justice. in whatever form she forces us to do it. i suspect she will not go down without a fight and frankly that's just fine with me."
