Godfall

In the morning, Kendell hunts down some rabbits, and they share breakfast. They talk about where they should all go, deciding that they will try to sneak in to the necromancer's house to get Salix' things.

Salix asks Kyrie about themself, getting somewhat vague answers. She asks who they serve, and they say that they usually refer to as "The Queen". Kendell asks Dev asks how long they've been drawing maps.

Salix and Kendell lead the group toward their camp. Kendell gets quite lost, but Salix begins recognizing things and gets them there. They collect their things and find the tracks that Kendell followed previously, which they follow back to the graveyard.

Kendell sneaks up to the mausoleum and inside, finding a large chest inside the front door. He noisily opens it, finding Salix and Kyrie's belongings. He hears two people arguing, with one calling the other "master", apologizing for not digging the graves, and asking to continue to serve the Mad Lich King together. Kendell puts their things outside and goes back in. Kendell makes his way back in, spotting some strange books along the way. He grabs 6 of them, and runs.

Kendell gives Salix a set of 3 books, telling her that he got them for her. Unfortunately, those are written in a language that she doesn't understand. Kendell flips through some others looking for pictures, and it turns out to be a handwritten journal, describing zombies and skeletons. He finds a map of an area in the northeast of the continent, labeled "the army".

Over the next five days, the group travels together. Kendell reads through the journals without anyone knowing. The journal talks about how necromancy is misunderstood. It points out that Quan Mal Macierre's wife, Zandaria, was a necromancer. He realizes that they are actually heading toward where the army is marked on that map. He wakes up Salix and tells her about it.

He also pulls out another book, made out of skin. Over breakfast, they show Dev and Kyrie the map, and the 4 debate what to do about this army. Kendell wants them to go check it out, but the others convince him that they should get help to deal with it. Salix and Kendell also show the others the book made of skin, which has the title "The Godfall".

It talks about how gods get their powers - the importance of worship and souls. It also begins to talk about how to kill a god, including weaknesses of each individual deity. Kyrie asks if they can see the book, because they are trying to find out if their queen is still out there. Salix hesitates, but they talk her into both looking at the section about Kord and allowing Kyrie to look at it too.

As she flips through the book to find the section on Kord, she passes a Pelor section, noticing a list of cities that have Sun Trees, with one crossed out. She finds the section on Kord, where she finds a note, saying "This god's weakness can not be exposed until the godfall".

She gives the book to Kyrie to look through too, and they find a whole chapter dedicated to Archfey. They find a list of Seely and Unseely court members, including a note that Eachthighern is deceased. They find their queen's name, along with a note that says "Dominion Shackled". It also says "The way to destroy Mab is to learn her true name." Salix and Kendell notice who Kyrie looked at, but don't say anything.

They throw the book into the fire, but it doesn't burn. She also tries to rip the page about Kord out of the book, but feels a gash in her chest open up, causing her to collapse. Kyrie quickly heals her.

That night, Kyrie goes out and finds a moment to pray to their queen. Voice breaking, they plead for her to show them that she is still there. They say that they have been praying every night for fifteen years. They hear a voice that says "Make your vow", and they vow to be there waiting until she returns.
