Citizens of our fare world,

I announce the completed construction of a new Infernal Fortification. It lies in the Northeastern Ithima forest near the small village of the Tasur'ke and is known as Blood Keep. While this is not necessarily a military fortification, its presence in the area will be most likely be significant.

As the Master of Blood Keep I will declare myself protectorate of this small humble village. None shall molest these poor souls, or else vengeance shall be taken.

On a side note, I have begun an intense study of the death, life, undead and unlife. Unfortunately my studies have reached such a point as I can not progress any farther with out certain, how can I say... 'tools' to work with. Those of you that are willing to fetch me bodies of unfortunate souls who have recently passed to the after life can give them to Sullust, my doorman of sorts. He will in turn give them to me for study.

It seems however that women have an unusually strong life force, small girls as well. Perhaps this is linked with the fact that women can create life themselves. At any rate, bring expired female bodies to Sullust and he shall find some way to reward you.
