\nDay 77, Year 538 of the Ascendancy<\/font><\/p>\n

\nEver since the last Chaos Storm, there have been
\nfew, if any major invasions. The Darshak and T’rools seem quiet and
\ncontent, for now, and few of the greymyr have been seen out of the
\nNorthern Passes. There was a small invasion of Choco Vermine in the
\neastern fields, a few days ago, but other than that, it has been fairly
\npeaceful for the citzens of Puddleby. That is, if not taking into
\nconsideration the movements of the undine. Everyday it seems that
\npowerful undine spawn within the undine hut, and the spawns grow more
\nfrequent and dangerous. Today was no exception.<\/font><\/p>\n

\nAs I was relaxing in town today, I heard a cry for
\nhelp in the undine hut, via the sunstone, and found myself rushing
\nthere right away. What awaited me within the undine hut was a small
\narmy of corpse warriors. Luckily for me, many fine fighters and healers
\nwere present, and the undine were dispatched with little difficulty.
\nAfter the hut had been cleared out, a few brave fighters proposed to
\nscout the undine cave; they quickly descended the ladder and disapeared
\nin seconds. Their resounding screams only moments later told us that
\ntheir was a great evil within the cavern.<\/font><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\"Way<\/font><\/p>\n

\nWhat “evil” lay within the cavern came in the form
\nof an army of Skeletals. I counted at least a hundred Skeletals and
\nGiant Skeletals before I gave up. The cavern was packed to the brim,
\nand I was felled in no time, and had to wait quite a while before a
\nrescue party large enough to handle this situation was assembled.
\nNobody knows how or why the undine were present in the cavern; the
\ninfamous witch-priestess Lilit was nowhere to be found. Exiles could
\nonly shake their heads, and wonder what darkness had brought the
\nSkeletals there. By the time we were done, mountains of bones lay about
\nthe cavern, and bands of exiles went about crushing the fallen bones so
\nthat none would rise up again to form ghatly hordes Skeletals.<\/font><\/p>\n

\nAfter the cave was cleared out, we realized that
\nmany undine yet remained in the Dark Cavern. Exiles began to pour into
\nthe crevice– a grave mistake. Hordes of Corpse Warriors and Skeletals
\nawaited within, along with Greater Wraiths and Wailing Spirits. All who
\nentered were felled, and those that attempted to rescue the fallen were
\nalso masacred. Rescue attempt after rescue attempt failed, and the lot
\nof us were forced to depart; though a few stubborn exiles remained in
\nthe Cavern, and were rescued, hours later, by Gurgi. Again we exiles
\nwere made to feel the power of the undine. And I have a strange feeling
\nthat this is only the beginning…
