To the clergy

I salute you, noble sires of Lord Kelemvor. A few days ago, a man called Durin was guilty for committing the abomination act of heresy called palemastery. Aided by the followers of the Triad and Sir Robert, the heretic was captured and the trail and judgment was conduced by myself.

To avoid any further mistake, I would like your advice on how to conduce such holy proceeding properly. I humbly request your mentoring on the matter for incoming events.

May His holy dogma be fulfilled.

Knight-Templar Victor Wilkinson and good brother Richard Manson

I would like to inform the progress of sister Epona, who requested to be called by the name Tannith. Today she performed a very interesting ceremonial to purge a fallen corpse of a palemaster captured by myself. It's also clear the Lord Kelemvor has blessed her with powers and strength.

This report might be short, but I would like to recommend her to get access to the ranks of the Sacred Order of Saint Elizabeth.

May the Lord Kelemvor blesses our blades against those who dare to disrupt the final rest.

Noble warriors of Lord Kelemvor

I would like to request the aid of a cleric on a matter which objective is to protect His holy Dogma. It would be a great honor the presence of a higher cleric on the matter. The details must to be discussed in person.

May the Lord Kelemvor bless us.

Warriors of Kelemvor

A few hours ago I've fought the abomination called Valkin, a powerful necromancer probably well known by your holiness. I've spotted him in the area between Bendir Dale and Cordor. He has attacked and defeated a War Knight called Kex minutes previous my arrive. I manage to engage the creature after he claimed he would be a treat to the Order. That was the first time I met such aberration. I managed to smite it, forcing the creature to flee under his spells and the aid of a small group of undeads.

According to the War Knight, he was harvesting innocents for his brutal and heretic experiments. He also claimed the creature posses the control of two constructed warriors made of bones.

In the face of the facts, I suggest we reinforce that area and make regular patrols to stop this threat for once at all.
I look forward hearing from you and your orders.

Kelemvor bless.

Brothers and sister in faith

I've noticed a terrible sign today while walking toward Bendir. I humbly ask you to apologize for reproducing its content:

"Freshly exumated, hand picked and perfectly preserved cadavers,
straight from your local graveyard, now avalible for sale! Weather
you are a professional anatomist, a thanatologist, an undertaker
who would like to put them back where you think they belong, or
you are *Kelemvorite corpse shagger just feeling lonely
matters not."

I would like to request a more regular visit to the graveyards, specially in the Benwick's ground.

May the Lord empower us to stop such madness.

Borthers and sisters

If we do not act quickly, such unscrupulous action will open a new line of trade and we cannot allow such heresy. There will be more merchants avaiable to sell fallen corpses claiming to supply the physicians' need. If the Sacred Order cannot see the urgency on the matter, I humble ask your approval to post a personal opinion about the matter, however as not as the Order's will.

To summarize, I'll claim that every single creature, human or not human, buying fallen corpses for whatever reason shall be guity of heping desecrators of the dead in act. An interrogatory along with an investigation shall be settled and the one already guilty of helping desecrators of the dead could be also guity of heresy and the proper proceed shall be conduced regarding such crime.

I look forward on hearing from you.

May Kelemvor bless our judment.Novice Mikal Stonesword.

*A message was written in papyrus and black ink and left in the Cathedral, upper rooms.*

Brother and sisters in faith.

I heard disturbing rumors - and I'm to attest the veracity of such - regarding people from the Shrine of Eilistraee raising back fallen necromancers after defending the hallowed area against the attack off demon cultists.The rumors say they were casting dark necromancy. After defeated, instead of a proper burial, they manage to give them a second chance, I presume, because they've raised them back.

Once more, I request permission to check about these disturbing rumors and to request, by a proper invitation, a meeting with those those potentially involved on such heresy to come to the Cathedral to clarify the issue.

May the Lord Kelemvor bless our sacred duty.

I call you for a holy march upon Caraigh and, next, every area where the rumors about dead raising from the graves are true. I'm about to request it in public as well, to assemble a group to visit these areas. This may be a good opportunity to spread His dogma as well, converting those without faith.

May the Lord bless our journey.

*A man with grey tunic, identified as Mikal Blacksword, would be seeing next to the place where lays the fallen corpse of Grand Master of the Order of Saint Elizabeth, Sharina Milla Fryar. He seems to be praying zealously next to the coffin, holding a rosary of Kelemvor between his fingers.*

*A few reports would be seeing in the main desk addressed to the members of the Order*

Hail to you, champions of Kelemvor.

Report 1:
During my visit to Cordor, granted by Captain Nevaeh only at the individual level, not the Order per se, I could learn and spot more about possible targets to investigate. One of them seems to be called by a false name Armand. Sister Tannith was present as well and also helped on interrogating a source about possible necromancers. She has being aiding me and the Order very often and such manner justify my recommendation to introduce her to the ranks of the Order as well.

According to source, his true name is Valkun. While in Cordor, he has stated before the Holy tabbard of the Order that he's interested on running tests with undeads rats and others sort of experiments I cannot recall. He has a white hair and also an eye path.

Report 2:
A woman called by the tittle and name Dawnmaster Llinyarrii requested a meeting a few days ago to discuss about experiments as well. She seems to be related to Lord Cory Shadowflame and also has his aid on this endeavor. She's currently searching for a "positoxin", as she calls it. It's mean to turn undead targets more permissive to positive damage, diminishing their resistances and weakening their strength. About her nature, it seems to be related to the planes above.

Her needs are limited to acquire more holy water to produce the positoxin in large scale. I'm slightly worried about her methods. She has claimed that Lord Cory is helping her, shifting to an undead form so she could run the tests. She also has promised to inform me about her progress. For now, we can only hope her work reaches a good end.

Report 3:
A mage with an unknown name has approached a small group of adventures and offered them, in the middle and opened area of Cordor, an odd task. She has requested a sample of negative elemental energy, pointing out to a place that we knows as Darkhold. A mercenary tiefling has offered to accomplish the task and I managed myself to intercept him before delivering such substance to her. But before that, when questioned about her intentions and plans by the others adventures, she offered an evasive answer about being interested on studying the nature of such energy. But the most disturbing was the fact that (revealed by the mercenary) she has demonstrated a visible pleasure on knowing that Darkhold remains there and alive. He also claimed she seems to have a history about that place.

I've managed to collect one of the mythals that she gave him in payment, for the information at least because I have the sample of the negative elemental energy. According to master Tuomas, it may be rather vague a chance to scry her using that rock.Tuomas also offered to talk with her, but without a name such diplomatic approach to get informations about her objectives may be impossible. Along with this report, you will see a bottle with a darkness substance inside it. This is the sample she has required.

Report 4:
Regarding the most important threat, the plague is taking more victims around Cordor. I cannot precise the numbers, but multiple elves were found dead. I'll investigate if they were transported to there by a macabre stratagem to spread the plague even more.


May He blesses us all to prevent the worse.

*Mikal can be seeing carying the following volumes from the library:"

Scriptum Eternus Candela
Scriptum Mortis
Of Kelemvor's Secret
The Malleus Haereticum

Music of the Church #19 Dominus firmamentum meum (The Lord is my strength)

*Templar Mikal Blacksword can be see in the Cathedral wearing a dark grey robe, conducing secular duties along with the preachers sometimes. There are also rumors about him screaming at night. A scream that would be defined as in terror. If asked, Mikal would deny and refuse to talk about it. He would have his meal in a different times from the others. Besides he would spend much of his time knelt next to the Idol of Kelemvor, praying mostly in celestial while holding the rosary of Kelemvor.*

*After a few days less active, Mikal returns to his normal activity. The reasons for that only a few may know. And without a waste of time, letters were posted in the Cathedral's board with the following title: Urgency (please, check on the external forum: http://theeternalorder.freeforums.org/index.php).*

*Another letter was left in the Cathedral where only the members have access:*

Members of the Sacred Order.

Regarding the event we were involved, helping the mulan people to delay the demon attack at the River of Swords, I've collected a few informations that had been neglected by them. After the event, the area where we held is now being visited by random undeads. And one of the chosen of Ma'at, called Talyne or something, said it wouldn't be a surprise Anubis using dark magic to fulfill his vile plan.

It seems they're well informed about Anubis and what he's capable to do, which leads me to the question: why they did not inform us properly when requested about the possibility of the use of dark necromancy by Anubis ?

If memory serves you well, good brothers, they informed us that those demons could deal with millions of life. This argument per se is powerful, but why not mentioning about the use of dark necromancy ?

During my visits in Cordor, I heard a disturbing report about the abomination called Lilith and her associates. Here is the following. I've approached Mister Rafiel and miss Rosary, after they reported the issue to a Condorian guard. They said they were attacked by them in the sewers of Cordor. Abomination Lilith was aided by a creature called Lucius Blackwave ((not sure if the last name was accidentally provided by meta)), who's description gives us no doubt about being a heretic as well. According to the victims, he wears the same muddy brow clotting, followed by a massive cloud of flys. It's also possible that he follows Falazure, but the victims were clear about him summoning an undead mummy. Later in Cordor shop, I could attest myself about the presence of such muddy creature and I also could spot a bone hand that he tried in vain to cover with a small shield.

But the list of those associate with the abomination Lilith doesn't stop. There is also a woman, average weight, shoulder-length cropped hair, known by the name Natia. Also a dragon-kin called Daegon, assisted by a female dragon-kin who's name I don't know. But she wears purple and black clothes.

Be aware of these targets and let them fear the Judge.

*Another note inside the temple where only the members have access ((so please avoid meta and being smashed by a DM))*

Brothers and sister in faith.

Mahir Muharib has informed about the next steps regarding the event. We're about to follow a large group through a portal that will be opened in Amia forest. According to Mahir Muharib, we're going deep "into the belly of the beast". The mission is rather important so we could scout ahead, but also really dangerous and the chances to survive may be decreased. We're going to travel to the plane of Gehenna with his escort.

Doing how dangerous it may be, I suggest we take measures about the possibility of a True Resurrection spell. Perhaps we could request aid from our allies from the Triad.

May the Lord Kelemvor bless our journey.
