Near Castle Black, Nocte

Agathar the Dark walked across the darkened landscape that surrounded Castle Black. The darkened and black trees held back a slowly seeping mist that cracked with magic. The ground was burnt from year old magic, and the sky for once did not rain. The man that walked forward wore garments not seen since the Warlock Wars. His armor was a dark grey, and held jagged curves and points, almost like orcish armor. A tattered black, hooded cloak covered over him.

The man removed his good to show a metal helmet similar to his armor "What do you think Shia" the man said to no one

That was until the dark tendrils of the nether opened up from the earth and a succubus stepped forth "I think it would make a very dark homested"

"I feel as though there is something you are not telling me" he said leaning on his staff

"Something is wrong within the castle" Shia said "Many of my kind are being summoned within and let lose. It would appear that someone has inhabited the old castle" she cocked her head "It appears you will need to tap into the dark to accomplish your goals"

Agathar signed, after the wars he used necromancy to only prolong his life, he had seen how destructive it could be in battles "If it comes to it"

"If it must be, the only other option is to combat his demons with your own" Shia knew this was a taxing suggestion as it would lead to a very balanced and long term battle for the keep.

Agathar held up his free hand, shadows swirled around it as a raven took form "Go see what awaits us, and find me" with those words left his mouth the raven took flight. Agathar turned to Shia "We need to start recruiting, Shia find me the nearest village"
