Yew Courthouse
Inside the lower floor courtroom on the judge's table is a green book. It reads,
A Journal
- For two generations now my family has been carrying the shameful burden of my grandfather's folly. From nobles to destitute, nothing my family has done to prove we are in no way like Lysander has been deemed good enough. If I could undo the wrong to the families of these who died, then maybe, just maybe things could change.
- I have studied my grandfather's research on Khaldun. There was an entry which described how to call upon a Dark Guardian within the Tomb. That terrifying being apparently is a jailor to the cursed souls that wander the mausoleum. It is said that a specific word must be spoken in the centermost room within the Tomb. That word is hidden in the combined wall carvings which adorn the bloodied walls of Khaldun.
- The hardest part was finding the cursed parchments required to make the etchings of the carvings. They are made by Skeletal Liches, none of which have been seen in decades. It is said that the etchings combined in a tome and plunged into the blood of the Damned will reveal the secret incantation.
- I am concerned about the secret room. Lysander's notes mentioned two levers controlling the door opening the mechanism. But they are hidden in secret passages of the Tomb. I must find them!
- I will unseal the tomb of Khal Ankur tonight. And I, Leoric Gathenwale, will free the cursed souls of Khaldun and grant my grandfather and his three companions the peace they have been denied so long.
- - Leoric Gathenwale
Jasper the Inspector
After doing such a good job on the Royal Council Massacre, Jasper is called in on another case.
- *Routinely Shouts* - If you wish to assist in this investigation, gather what clues you can from the journal on the table, or speak to me!
- Assist - Much appreciated! This is in fact a double investigation: the death of Leoric Gathenwale and the unholy beings invading us.
- Leoric - From what we've gathered of his journal on the table, the silly man went on a foolish quest which eventually caused his demise.
- Journal - We believe the unholy presence in our graveyards are somehow linked to Leoric and the journal seems to provide at least some clues.
- Demise - He disappeared for a few days and returned about a week ago, completely changed, acting crazy.
- Changed - His neighbors had become quite frightened of him. Then last night, he barricaded himself inside his house then set it on fire.
- Frightened - They would find him wandering, ragged, covered in blood and mud. At times his voice and his features would change.
- Barricaded - He boarded the doors and windows, shut as if to prevent something from getting out, then he set the house on fire.
- Fire - It completely ravaged the house. This journal is all that we managed to salvage.
- Changed - His neighbors had become quite frightened of him. Then last night, he barricaded himself inside his house then set it on fire.
- Unholy - Skeletal Liches, Spectral Armors and Cursed Souls are now plaguing us, it cannot be a coincidence.
- Coincidence - These creatures are only known to dwell in Khaldun, yet they started appearing throughout the land just after he reopened the Tomb?
- Khaldun - A most foul place. It lies in the Lost Lands, west of Minoc Cave.
- Coincidence - These creatures are only known to dwell in Khaldun, yet they started appearing throughout the land just after he reopened the Tomb?
- Leoric - From what we've gathered of his journal on the table, the silly man went on a foolish quest which eventually caused his demise.
From the conversation it seems that Khaldun is the place of interest at the moment.
