The dark specter appeared within the hall in a haze of purple smoke. It silently floated up behind the priestess as her attention was focused upon a scrying font. A sickle flashed, the sound of blood spurting onto the ground, and the head of the priestess rolled upon the flagstones. The undead fiend began to splatter blood upon the floor in a pattern. Then it picked up the head, methodically stripped the flesh off, and ripped the jawbone away. Carefully sitting the skull in the center of the bloody sunburst pattern it took a moment to admire the efficient artistic kill before writing the following message in gore, "The Dark Sun rises! The Harlot's minions shall be culled."
Slowly the purple smoke faded and with it the monster that was once friend and ally to so many.

It isn't until several days later that Mynian hears news of this attack and gets very pale for a good score of moments, realizing she had almost chosen to go into the shrine alone on that very same night.
The pale look eventually disappears to be replaced by a frown that simply lingers on her face for the rest of the day. Her thoughts generally kept to herself.

Xandy was perplexed as having been asleep recovering in the grove at what was likely the time. A deep earthy sleep might not have noticed their passage nor them her.
She does report she led an expedition into the Zorastryl keep on the general principle of a wide search net. No connecting evidence was found at that.

Having already been discussing with witnesses he could find of the matter, Kerator attempts to discuss with the animals of the grove if they had seen anything before attempting to schedule a time to meet with the priestess herself, however is careful to word it so that she does not feel pressured. Meetings in the grove with various adventurers of the shooting stars and other related mystran groups are seen however to increase within the grove itself where Kerator has been tending the small grove.

In the dark of night orogs attack Shallybrook. Quite a few townsfolk have been captured and dragged into the dark cave that many know leads to the Stormhorns and possibly someplace else. Bloody signs of an eye are splattered upon the gate.

*after a search and minor rescue, a small hin in colourful leathers leaves the caves, escorting two hin maidens. He sees them home and then makes his way back to the hills overlooking the bridge. He spikes a few arrows down in the ground next to him, bow in hand, and keeps watch*

*A group was assembled that went into the Cold Caverns to confront the Orogs. They had killed an eaten at least two Villagers, Likely more. Two were found hiding in the darkness and were rescued alive. They were escorted back to the Village by the Hin named Grizwald. The Hero of the day.
The group continued on through and into the Mountains. Tracks leading to the North East were followed. Some fighting with Frost Giants, Ogres and Orcs went on. Orogs had laid traps to slow their Adventurers tracking them.
After some time, the blowing snow concealed the tracks and the trail went cold.*

Kerator can be found after each assault attempting to mend and calm the animals and people of the region. When he seems to believe his work in what little healing he can do is done he is seen angrily training in the grove of mystra.

Cooper hears of the attacks and curses not being in his home when they happened as he was searching for the ever elusive Spiders Eyes.
Attending Mystras temple, he offers prayers to The Lady of Magic and also guidance from Savras. He then offers his service to the clerics there.
Pondering his recent research he knew he was getting close to the Prince of Lies as he knew "The Harlot" was his term for the Lady of Magic. It was time to speak with the others.

*Shortly after receiving and reading reports of these incidents, Swordmajor Norah of the RCMH arrives to Shallybrook. She takes the high ground that oversees the entrance to the large cavern and remains in the halfling village for the time being. If the orogs were to launch another attack, she would be prepared to neutralize any and all of their masters for good.*
