The soft sound of a childs sobs have been heard echoing through the Morninglord Crypt's of late and talk of a caliban child living down there spreads quickly.

[Screams echo through the halls of the catacombs first floor after a young native girl informs the local clergy she is visiting family below. As the screams die out, there is nothing left but silence and the girl that was seen descending does not return to the temples surface]

A Lightcarrier was seen descending into the crypts with an outlander knight call Markus. The knight required the aid of his old friend to free a woman trapped within the crypts. The Lightcarrier never returned. The knight in question returned alone and wounded, claiming to have been attacked by a black robed vampire witch.

Witnesses tell of a pale-skinned wombfreak entering a confrontation with a local Garda after provoked. However, the superior training and combat experience of the soldier proved to be the greater, and the Caliban was beaten harshly, and thrown back down into the sewers to lick his wounds and learn his place.

Despite Markus's Claims, when Bratu The Lightcarriers corpse was pulled from the catacombs an unnerving sight was beheld.. the corpse's wounds resembled as if it had been stabbed form behind by a spear and then multiple stab wounds from a spear decorated the rest of his back creating a mess of a slaughter. This brings suspicion to people... However there is no proof that this was indeed markus's doing. without a doubt markus had indeed been attacked by a vampire from his wounds... But was that the only occurrence down there?.. People can only guess.

Stories begin to spread from the Morninglordian Church like wildfire of the former Sun Cultist Markus and his attempt to murder Garda in the crypts with the aid of a Vrolock, and frame the caliban Pale for it. He was last seen fleeing from the Garda back into the crypt, a sure sign of his treachery unveiled.

after hearing such rumors an outraged markus denies them all demanding proof of such a conspiracy. He then proclaims his fleeing an action based off of the truth that being blamed for such a travesty would have gotten him killed on sight as an outlander as he would likely not have been asked for his side of the story in such a situation. Markus offhandedly also comments that the pale half-orc likely finished the job with the young girl, stashed the body and then attempted to save himself by fabricating such a lie against markus. No doubt there is a vrolock below however markus also claims that such a vrolock tried to kill him not long ago... so why would he work with it?

People have by now heard about the battle in the crypts beneath the morninglordian temple. After three people,a tall 6' human, a black and red mailed and hooded figure, and a black clad woman went beneath, the three traversed and fought bravely through the hordes of undead but upon reaching near the bottom the woman, human and hooded figure were suddenly encountered by a large panther who snarled at the red and black clad man. to their horror they witnessed the man brutally shift into a wererat and battle the panther, they fled and son after the wererat emerged somewhat up to fight the brave ezrite man who in the end managed to turn him away before having to flee due to the rats regenerative capabilities. The man fled and his identity is still unknown but it is unmistakable that he is usually donned in black and red full plate, and is certainly a capable human fighter when not in his form

A native Barovian man informs the clergy of the Morninglord about the white clad vrolock with a touch of ice whom he had an all too close encounter with.  The terrifying meeting has also enticed him to seek joining the clergy of the Morninglord, and he actively seeks acceptance into the official church.  He lieaves his name for anyone who would help him.  Serghei Lacusta

The Lich was active again. A small group led by some of those Wayfarers went down into the catacombs. They foolishly leapt into some dark varja. The Wayfarers never returned but the Lich's activities have suddenly stopped.

Battle raged tonight in the Outskirts: battle of the most overt magical kind, with flashing lights and dazzling spells shattering the peace and quiet of the evening. Undead horsemen and entities threw themselves at a rag-tag collection of heroes, seeming to target a mage shrouded in shadows in particular. Wave after wave could be heard; with attendant shouting, screaming and other battle-noises. Then, just as suddenly, all went silent and the undead ceased their onslaught, as if the focus of their attention had shifted elsewhere....
“Moral wounds have this peculiarity - they may be hidden, but they never close; always painful, always ready to bleed when touched, they remain fresh and open in the heart.”

A group of hero's Returned from the Terg crypts in the dead of night, they retured triumphant after destroying the Lich known as the devoured, along with his followers. With the phylactery destroyed by A Holy Knight of the Morninglord his only comments were:

"I couldn't have done it alone, these people are the strongest, bravest and most courageous men and women i have had the honor of serving with"

Breeanna Soreaske, Ophelia Sidhel, Therion Stormwind, Casavir Lightbringer, Eleora Tealeaf, Eugene Daarkstaar and Solomon Burke; Will be remembered as the great men and women who destroyed a great evil that plagued vallaki.

The golden ex-knight, Martell, burst into the temple this evening, very badly wounded and carrying the decapitated body of another man.
When questioned, Martell stated that they had both been kidnapped by the high priest of the church of Nerull, how he survived remains a mystery.

A fight brokeout in the Santuary between Lightcarrier Trandafir and a local merchant. Shortly afterwards a notice was displayed in both churches.

The blacksmith known as Van Zandt has been banned from both sanctuaries for being caught stealing  a corpse and fighting with a Lightcarrier.

Knuckle hunters and tomb robbers have reported seeing the ghosts of lost children wandering the deeper catacombs. There presence is usually marked with a drop in temperature and the appearance of the "Lady in White".

A strange sight below in the crypts today.

A Symbol of the Morninglord has been made out of undead bones and rings. The Symbol of the Morninglord sits on top of the pentagam with a great sword in the middle sticking upright. There is a gold ring on the hilt of the sword and a message below the symbol written in chalk.

"Know that all undead that haunt this crypt will be destroyed, be it by the tortuous path of fate or at my hands. I will gladly do thy Morninglords work. -Sir Solomon Burke -

Seems Someone is sending a message.

Martell Odessyn and Joanna Silversun were reportedly returned to life in the temple recently. Rumors of kidnapping and torture abound but the two are most certsinly alive and free at this time.

The strange woman known as Elia Siger was brought into the sanctuary, her body limp, eyes open and staring.
All attempts to repair whatever harm has befallen her have seemingly failed and she is later moved to the ladies rest.
She was attended by quite a crowd, including Eleora Tealeaf, Eric Morris, as well as the Harikiran siblings.

A commotion has been sparked in the sanctuary of the Coming Dawn, after one of the Olteanu brothers, Fabrizio, carried inside a corpse of an old man, garbed in filthy robes. Olteanu brother has claimed that it was actually a wererat killed by himself, which shifted into it's human disguise upon death. A story about the "valiant" deed followed shortly, accompanied by the musical tunes of Renzo Olteanu.

A young woman, garbed in orange robes, was seen coming into the temple carrying a body, and bleeding from a bite at her neck. Relieved of that burden, she grew weary, and had been made to take rest. She is being cared for by one Ser Lucian, and a healer named Ghail.
