Rumors spread quickly from the farm at the crossroads that Tamara Roth, 23, the founder of the Scarlet Lions, was killed by the vampire Hadavi and drained until she was reanimated as a mindless thrall, which was duly destroyed by the sunlight.
The motive for the sudden move against her and the Lions is not entirely clear. Some speculate that the death of a prominent leader among adventurers is enough, others whisper rumors that she converted to the Black Hand but then returned to her old faith, marking her for death. There are more than a few that view this as yet another slip along the path to dark times, and also more than a few that are really just as glad to see her gone.
