Official report of lawless behavior given to the city watch of Sundren, written in a beautiful script and signed in a flourish, delivered by hand.
" To The Master of the Watch, Sundren
I have the unfortunate duty to inform you of an unprovoked assault on my person, which resulted in severe bodily pain and required extensive Medical Attention.
I have taken it upon myself, like so many others, to attempt to curtail the activities of certain Organizations such as the Black Hand. To that end I was discretely keeping a watch on the undead in and around the Necropolis. Without warning I was attacked by a magically constructed undead creature, of the sort favored by Necromancers, though luck was however on my side as I was able to defeat the creature; though it was a close thing.
Without time to catch my breath I was then hit by a bolt of magical energy, commonly called negative energy in magical circles, and also favored by necromancers. In severe pain I fortunately was able to use several spells to escape from this second attack, and fled to seek medical attention. Before I left I recognized the mage who attacked me as one Loric Derthur. That he was near a stronghold of the Black Hands, and that he used necromatic magic, is, in my opinion at least, an indication of his hostile intentions. As for his unprovoked attack on me, I cannot begin to fathom the purpose, unless it means that the Hands again seek to remove me, or use me for their purposes, such as during the aborted attempt of the Goblin Invasion. I urge all the good watchmen of Sundren to be on their guard, as Loric Derthur has made it apparent that he is a dangerous man.
Sincerely Yours,
Kathryn Blake, Sorceress of Sundren
*attached below is a letter from the priests of Ilmater confirming Kathryn's injuries were necromatic in nature, a product of negative energy*
