Participating Guildmembers: Aiden Harthen, Raserai, Scherbrim, Lor & Ip, Zillah, Ceun, Hanz, Grolakk
Summary: We arrived at the town, finding it entirely decimated. We did not venture in far before encountering a swarm of undead- most mindless, save for a singular leader displaying intelligence and faith. It cast divine magic and claimed to act as the vessel for an “Unborn Lord.” We put it down, captured as many of the rest as we could, and then returned the corpse of the intelligent undead to Edgar so he could try and figure out what profane process through which undead was granted the magic of the divine. Below is a sketch of the symbol of faith that the creature used to call upon its divine magic, in case the icon itself is lost.

As said, a rough sketch of the symbol is drawn here.
