» Quest.
THE PLIGHT OF THE DAMNED ─ Iorveth will be hailed on the road to Caer Scima by a cadre of three neophyte (recently turned) vampires who are also traveling to Caer Scim: Mandli, Tean, and Aindrea. Their dayguard (seven soldiers) had vanished during the day, and without them, these creatures are easy prey to almost any creature or thief when they go into torpor over the course of the day. Their mission is one of haste (delivering important messages from their sire), and they cannot linger in the forest to search for the vanished men: instead they offer to pay Iorveth handsomely to guard them on their way.

 

» Involvement.
On the evening of November 7th Iorveth was approached by the three vampires and agreed to defend them the rest of the way to Caer Scima. He decided the best way to do that was to tie them to the horse he had stolen from the Caer Scima stables not long after he first arrived. There were a few hiccups, in the form of beasts and bandits, but by the evening of November 9th he delivered all three women to Caer Scima safely.

 

» Results.
As thanks for his aid, the three vampires gifted him with 50 gold pieces as well as the tattoo of a white snake on his right forearm that will only appear under the light of the moon. This is a mark well-known in the criminal underworld, and would gain Iorveth immediate status among the undead, thieves, rogues, assassins, and others of that like, as well as act as his 'pass' into monthly Midnight Courts.

» Event.
THE UPRISING DEAD ─ All over the land, unmarked graves are blooming with green sod and bright, fragrant tulips. The fairies whisper that Black Shuck is returning the Long Dead to the notice of the land, and will urge everyone to rebury the bones of champions in the crypts of the castles before fourteen days have passed. The fairies won't say why, but will be moved to tears if their pleas are not carried out. Even the imps will be frantic over the accomplishment of this task. The monarchs will issue decrees for each shard-holder to follow the instructions of the fae. On the seventh day, midway through the deadline, they will be persuaded by the monarchs to speak plainly: Black Shuck wants his dead honoured by Caer Glaem and Caer Scima alike, even within the Station's mile radius. If the mounds are not exhumed and the contents properly laid to rest, the Dog of Death will lay a sickness on the six lands.

The tulip mounds rot with the sunrise of the fifteenth day. From them rise up large spectral dogs with blank fiery eyes that roam the six realms and attack anyone with a shard. These, the monarchs will inform the realms, are the restless souls claimed by Black Shuck, cast out and damned until felled by the fearless; the trouble with slaying the hungry beasts lies in their ability to inspire ones greatest terrors to grip the heart. As a result, they are difficult to destroy. A royal command will be issued to all shard-holders, instructing them to fortify the castles and all those who are able to ride out and destroy the demonic dogs. Seelie and Unseelie alike will be granted a royal favour at the end of the month.


» Involvement.
Iorveth was already on his way back to Caer Scima with collected bones when the three vampires begged for his aid. After seeing them to their destination the elf headed straight for the crypts and buried the bones of the dead.
