A small child who was up late on the 28th day of hammer has a story to tell to those who will listen. He speaks of a big woman in red armour and horned helmet who was disturbing the graves in Kelemvor's Garden. He claims he ran off when he saw her digging "she gave me quite the scare, i were feared for me life guvnor".
Whether or not the child is believed what is true is that one of the Graves in the garden was toppled over and the ground underneath dug away, bones and debris from the coffin lie scattered on the ground.

The local cleric of Kelemvor, Loreli Gravesowner, confirms the story that she saw a woman in red armour and horned helmet. She also says that she saw a dwarf in rusty armour who smelled like a swamp, and a hooded man in mage robes, carrying a staff with a black gem at the top. "The three of them lingered in the graveyard for a while." she says, pointing out where they stood. "I told them to go away, and they did after a while. Later on, I saw the armoured woman enter the crypts." One man in the crowd steps up to Loreli, asking her where she were, and how she could so recklessly neglect her duties. An old woman then says that even clerics of Kelemvor need to eat and sleep, and can't be expected to stand in the graveyard at all hours like a scarecrow against grave robbers. "Maybe we should get some Jergalite mummy guardians?" someone suggests, but people just murmur and shake their heads. Loreli apologizes and quickly says a prayer to Kelemvor. She then explains that she went off to dinner at the inn with a friend after the red woman had entered the crypts on her own. "That's when I saw the red woman come out of the crypt and dig up the grave!" the boy quickly adds. When Loreli later came back to Kelemvor's Garden at night, one of the graves had been disturbed. She steps up to the overturned gravestone and points out some strange corrosion, saying she found traces of acid on the stone. She spreads the word to the nearby RCMH headquarters and Purple Dragons, to keep an eye out for the woman in red armour, the smelly dwarf in rusty armour and the hooded mage with a black gem-topped staff. "Please spread the word that if anyone knows of these grave robbers, they should speak with me. Grave robbers must not go unpunished."

Early in the morning, the boy who previously said he had seen an armoured woman dig up graves, now tells of another shocking sight. And this time he has proof: he found a fresh corpse in the graveyard.
Rumours soon spread from Thunderstone that Loreli Gravesowner, the Keeper of Kelemvor's Garden, has been brutally murdered. She was found in the graveyard, her chest had been cut open and her heart removed. On the wall of the Garden a short sentence had been written in her own blood: "Abii was here".
Fortunately, it was not time for Loreli to join her god, and she has now been resurrected. To anyone who meets her, it is clear that this event has affected her deeply. She often sits in silent contemplation, and she barely seems to sleep, always watching the graveyard. A Purple Dragon Blade often joins her, watching anyone who approaches the Garden, and together they turn away visitors at the slightest suspicion they might have something sinister in mind.
The local Purple Dragons spreads the word of what happened, and puts up posters asking for anyone with information concerning this murder, the previous grave robbing, or the adventuress known as Abii to come forward.
