Loose Threads: Who is "D" and why he sent the orcs to desecrate those bodies?
Short Summary:
Tasked with delivering an invitation for First Landing's New Year Tournament to Eudosiusof The Coalition, the party journeyed through the Portal Shrine and towards the east. On their path through a forest, we encountered a dozen of bodies hanged for trees. These catfolk corpses had been left to rot by some evildoer. The group decided to give a proper burial to the victims but, before the task was accomplished, we were assailed by a pair of orc ruffians. The strangers took credit for the massacre, so we charged them. To our surprise, the deceased catfolk rose and attacked from the rear! They had become the host for a demonic vermin that burrowed inside and took control of their bodies.
After dispatching the villains, we recovered a note from their pockets:
"Go to the forest near the town of Ryker's Crossing and start messing with the bodies. Rip em up, hang em and bleed em, throw em all around. Kill anyone who interferes and add em to the pile. Do all this, and you'll be rewarded."
Taking note, we put the bodies to rest, finally, and continue with our mission. We arrived at New Hezrath in time, and looked for an audience with catfolk leader. Inside the cathedral we found him, and the letter was delivered.
