The Witch's Letter

Milady,

I write this letter to you today for I am greatly concerned about the fate of your niece. I should have come to you sooner, but I wanted to believe all was well. I hope my delay will not have been a fatal one.

As you know, in the course of our studies, Clio, Marcus and I traveled all over the land. A few months ago, we stumbled upon a Meer village. Clio became enthralled with them. In no time, she became the protégée of Adranath himself. She decided to remain in Lakeshire while Marcus and I returned to our hidden valley North of Mistas.

Shortly after, we received a letter from Adranath informing us that moments after the plague hit Yew, Clio became ill. It was hard to say what was ailing her exactly, but he believed she was somehow being affected by the Decay. Her symptoms weren’t alarming so the Meers just insisted she remained in Lakeshire and away from the diseased areas until she recovered. Marcus decided to hasten his visit to the Lakeshire and Spirituality valleys to study the fairies that live in the tree houses. This way, our poor Clio wouldn’t be alone while the Meers were fighting back the plague by our side.

During his stay in Spirituality, Marcus took Clio to Blood Dungeon to meet with Semidar. I am not quite certain what happened, but things turned sour. In a fit of rage, Semidar killed both Marcus and Clio and cursed their spirit. We were able to lift the curse off Marcus, but the Decay somehow enhanced the power of the curse on Clio and her soul was quickly failing. We had to take emergency measures so she wouldn’t remain forever locked in death. The Gargoyles put her spirit in a suspended sleep to give us more time to find a cure. Marcus believed he had found such a cure but has since disappeared and I haven’t heard from him in weeks.

Please let me know what you wish me to do. I will assist you in any way possible to rescue the young ones.

Sincerely
