Letter to Silken

Lady Dark,
Sworn Servant of the Powers of Light,
It is with considerable reluctance that I write to you now.

Twenty years have passed since Rashak the Destroyer, Mistress of Masada was cast down and the great manifestation of the Dark Circle broken beneath fire and sanctified steel. All hoped that her evil had been wholly extinguished, yet time has proven otherwise.

You will no doubt know of the northern outbreak, wherein Rashak’s surviving acolytes bore fragments of the Circle into the cold provinces of Jurgenmark and sought to seed it anew. By the courage of adventurers of your guild and the sacrifice of loyal Western Kingdom forces, that horror was contained and burned away.

Elsewhere there have been lesser recurrences: hidden crypts, blighted fields, circles found carved beneath ruined chapels and abandoned villages. Each, by grace and vigilance, destroyed by our martial brothers and sisters before it could take root.

But now a more concerning pattern has emerged.

In recent months, our diviners and wardens have marked several manifestations of the Circle in widely separated regions. Yet when our knights and clergy arrive to investigate, they find nothing. No taint. No corruption. No lingering necromancy. Only signs that something had been there and was gone before we could reach it.

The Circle appears. The Circle vanishes. This troubles us greatly.

If this remained a purely martial issue we would send our loyal Church brethren, but as the enemy shows a new deviousness and cunning, our mind turned to your unique talents.

We have recently detected a new manifestation in the Greenwood, that forested area north of Brastor, hard against the Ildrisholm Hills and not far distant from the site of the great victory of Light at Carson's Switch.

For this reason, and by authority granted me by Tomás Xerxes, Archbishop of the Unified Western Church, I hereby call upon the oath you swore before the Inquisition in Seagate in that Year of Tribulations 800 WK.

You swore your obedience, modesty, and chastity until the Dark Circle was banished forever. Therefore, you are requested, and, by your vow required, to take up this onerous charge once more.

Gather such companions as you deem trustworthy. Travel where these signs of corruption lead you. Investigate this area. Discover whether Rashak’s evil survives in hidden form, or whether some deeper darkness now moves beneath its name.

Attend on me in Seagate before your departure. You shall have the support of the Unified Church within reasonable measure: letters of passage, access to our archives, sanctuary where it may be found, and such bounty as our treasuries can responsibly provide.

As additional inducement should this matter be resolved to the satisfaction of the Inquisition, your oath shall be considered fulfilled in full and without reservation; you shall be released from all further obligations to the Church and from the office and burden of Lady Dark.

May the Light yet guide your path and reveal what hides in shadow.

Bishop Jocelyn,
Cathedral of the Dawn
Seagate
