The Duskfort Notes

After finally gaining entry, there were several journals and notes found within Duskfort, a stone construct built into the mountain range seperating Kandain and the elven lands by Agustus Aren.

Journals of an Unknown Aren
"Agustus tells us that the walls can't be breached, that the wards will hold, that we all are safe here. I do not know if we can trust him, but Grandmaster Kendrick assures us that we can.

The Saradominists have finally begun their assault of the fort. The walls tremble as their attacks beat agisnt the mountain side. Augustus says the walls will hold, I hope for us all that he is right.

It has been weeks, but the walls still vibrate with the attacks outside. What if Agustus was wrong, what if we will die in this place? There is word that Kendrick is thinking about taking some of us out, to go get help from the Arens of Asgarnia. I hope I go with him, this fort....it flows with anger, with many, many horrid emotions. I can feel them waft through the air, like a foul odor.

The quiet of the fort is madenning. The enemy seems to have left, the vibrations ceasing. Kendrick took forty magi, told us they would return shortly. I only hope that nothing happens to them. Agustus started talking to himself, muttering something about 'The Master'. Is his worry of Kendrick's safety so great?

We have been here for months, the Sun is a distant memory to many of us here, and food is scarce. Where is Kendrick? Agustus is getting worse, I fear things are not as they appear. People are disappearing, without a word of warning.

-Much of the rest of the book is illegible, the book too blood stained to read. Only some of the words on a few of the pages are actually legible.-

....Thorvald.....

Kendrick abandonded......

...Lich.....
