**A letter is delivered by courier to the House of the Morninglord in Marsember. The courier is liveried in a particularly rich shade of green and insists that the letter be delivered immediately to the High Morninglord. When the letter is opened, the following is found written in a fine hand**
To His Eminence, the High Morninglord,
Greetings in the name of our Lord. I write to you to inform you of a dire threat that now faces the Church of the Morninglord and the kingdom of Cormyr as a whole.
Some nights ago the villages of Isinhold and Skull Crag were overrun by hordes of undead - minions of an undead illithid who is apparently bent on world domination. I counted over a thousand undead garrisoned in Isinhold alone. The priest of Kelemvor in Skull Crag has been slain, as well, and the holy place of that god appears to have been desecrated.
Your Eminence, the villages of Eveningstar and Shallybrook appear to be next on the list of conquest. I already have reports that a demilich appeared in Suzail itself, outside of the Temple of Tymora, and caused great harm there. It was not alone - according to eyewitness accounts, it was accompanied by eye tyrants, banshees, and driders. The eyewitness accounts of the invasion of Isinhold and Skull Crag make mention of a dracolich, as well. The Temple of the Morninglord in Eveningstar faces an eminent threat from these creatures, as do all living things in Cormyr.
I ask that a call be put out throughout all the lands where the Morninglord holds sway for Dawnbringers to aid our efforts to push back this horde of abominations. While we have strength of arms, there are very few priests and paladins to draw aid from. Healers and the hunters of undead are desperately needed.
I wait in Eveningstar for your reply. Please, Your Eminence, do not tarry long in your decision. I believe that we are rapidly running out of time.
I remain in service to the Dawn,
Liadan Amaethal
Priestess of Lathander
Commander of the Evergreen Militia
