Fire and Water and the Wand
The truth of what happened to Marnek Jaull the day the Wand of the Burning Dead caused a mighty explosion can only be told by one -- Hagad Starshine, the only survivor of that day. Hagad was a young Deepwater Knight and squire to the great Sir Toran.
| During those times, there was a foul Erudite named Kenox who joined the Burning Dead many years prior. During the years of war with the paladins of Prexus, he chose to betray Marnek by making a deal with the Deepwater Knights. He would tell them where Marnek was if they would promise him freedom. Kenox told the paladins of his great plan to
|
| steal the Wand of the Burning Dead, which would leave Marnek helpless.
But the Knights betrayed Kenox. When they arrived to meet Kenox in a secluded bay, they took Kenox and the Wand of the Burning Dead that he had successfully stolen by replacing it with a false one.
| But Marnek had played them all for fools. As Sir Toran laid his hand on the wand, it exploded with great force and tore the ship to pieces and killed all the men, but one. As the explosion occurred, a small splinter of the wand lodged itself deep into Hagad's cheek, somehow protecting him as the flames
|
| burned around them all.
As Hagad watched the ship and his crewmen burn, he prayed to Prexus to save the sailors, but the god did not. Instead, Prexus moved the tides east so that Hagad's body would be found by a passing sailor named Whent. While Prexus protected Hagad, Solusek Ro chose to use Kenox as a vessel
| for his power so that Prexus' pet would never gain control of his faithful Kenox.
With his newfound power, Kenox was able to lord over the undead knights and command them as he wished, but they are all condemned to remain under the sea else they experience great agony. He sent them to Deadbone Reef
|
| until their time would come, a time when they would find themselves engrossed in rebuilding the Wand of the Burning Dead and seeking out Marnek so he may feel Kenox's vengeance.
