You-can't-sit-with-us (Mission Note)

The town of Northshire sent an S.O.S. to the guild as it was besieged by an ever-growing horde of undead every night for the past week, they estimate that they will not be able to survive the attacks for much longer. A rag-tag group of available mercenaries were gathered to heed their summons and immediately set off towards the beleaguered town.

Upon arrival, the group met with Rallier Chairon Knorbury who informed them about the relic that was kept in the town called the Izvah'Tehragarb which they believe to have kept their town safe for all these years. The Keeper, Raleighna Forge (who was tasked with keeping the relic safe), has stopped responding to the townsfolk and hasn't helped the town in their defense from the undead. The party paid the Keeper a visit and beat her into submission to reveal her motives.

She revealed that the relic was actually a phylactery of a lich that was imprisoned by the Temple of Baatei years ago. The phylactery acted as a beacon, drawing in the undead from miles away and it was the Keeper's job to keep the relic safe and do a ritual that suppresses it. Raleighna, the selfish and greedy person that she is, stopped doing the ritual and sent her acolytes away, pocketing the money that the Temple has been sending her.

The party found the phylactery and destroyed it hearing a ghastly threat coming from its destruction. With the destruction of the phylactery, the evil magic emanating throughout the town has been lifted and no undead horde attack that evening. The party deemed the Keeper irredeemable so they captured her and delivered her to the Temple of Baatei in Viveni for her punishment.

The lich now has a target set on the guild.
