While they are stuck without work, and they lick their mental wounds, Paul and Morro await their leader as they share a drink in the guild's hall.

4. ”Life, Death, and Fire: Secret Kingdom” Man’s Folly: 2

Gohdin has been practicing. With his trusted advisors believing he'd simply lost his memories after the Lichdom ritual, Christoph attempts to acquire as much magical knowledge and application as he can. Sashro is a great help, but even using simple status-effect spells on living targets is troublesome. The two do not share a moral compass.

3. ”Life, Death, and Fire: Secret Kingdom” Man’s Folly: 1

Griffon Nodure has been tasked with returning to the village of Rothmire. Now, unlike his first voyage, he brings true soldiers in great numbers. The empire was not so concerned with reports of roaming barbarian savages, yet the unknown slayer and vengeful judge of Carmoss was another story.

1. ”Life, Death, and Fire: Secret Kingdom” Prologue

The gods play their games of dice and chance. Whatever the outcome, mortals are not meant to know just how the gods worked their mysterious plans. An oddity in their game creates a moment of chaos for three gods while two others, mostly forgotten to the world of mortals, watch from a distance.
They seem to have grown bored of waiting for their names to die, and so they choose to sow some of their own chaos. They set out to the Protharian Empire.

37. ”Life, Death, and Fire: We, the Unholy Three” Dawn the New Age: 5

Christoph finishes the barbarian warriors without so much as a scratch on his person. Inspiring his guards, they relish in the victory. Yet, Christoph feels hollow in his conquest. The undead mind cares little for the fate of the living... and those that would not fight still remain breathing. Christoph gives the order.

36. ”Life, Death, and Fire: We, the Unholy Three” Dawn the New Age: 4

Christoph's body is now immortal... unbreakable.His mind is not. As the human portion of his being struggles externally against the barbarian hordes, it battles the undead and dragonkin mentally.
