## Backstory

*"“Quickly! Hide under your bed and don’t make a sound!” Lilithe’s mother quickly threw some blankets under the bed to obscure the hiding spot. Soon after there was a crash and it sounded like the door had burst open. Lilithe could hear her mother screaming, but as she screamed the voice grew quieter. Her mother had been taken. Just like her brothers were this morning. Her father had left the village to try and get help from Aberron Castle, but he should have been back by now. The castle was only an hour away on horseback. He should have been back by now.*

*Lilithe was alone.*

*The cultists had shown up in the village early this morning and began searching every house one by one and rounding up the villagers in the town square. But it sounded like they had nearly everyone by now.*

*“Pay attention you ungrateful worms!” The voice boomed in Lilithe’s mind. Their leader must have been using some form of magic to project his voice.*

*“You have all been granted the ability to live here in peace through the kindness and benevolence of our great lord Karthix! However, our savior is now in need, and it has come time for all to return the lives he has given. Rejoice! For you shall be among the first to pave the way for the return of the great old one! Know that you do not die today, but instead, you become part of something greater! Karthix! We send these savages to you so that you may purify them in your image!”*

*There was screaming.*

*Then there was only silence.*

*Lilithe shot up out of bed. She was alone. It was just a dream. A memory of the day when she had lost everything. But she wasn’t that scared little girl under a bed anymore. Lilithe had trained and fought and become a respected ranger. Assuming the identity of "Morta", she had hunted and learned about the cult for years. She had learned that they’re called the Dragon Purists, their leader is an Orc shaman named Karak Tonn, and their main hideout is hidden somewhere in the Eberline Mountainrange in the heart of the country of Desocra. But most importantly she had learned how to find them from a particularly chatty cultist who had recently come down with a sudden case of blunt force trauma after a meeting with Morta.*

*She knew their next target. A small time local hero from a little village in Falzer named Thiala Nemmonis. Morta had tracked Thiala to a roadside inn in Desocra called The Scarlet Slaad. Now that she had bait, all she had to do was wait and the cult would come to her.*

*Blood would be spilled. They were all going to pay for what they’d done."*
