[178 AR, Month 3] The Looming Shadow That Was
The vile Victoria Helbrecht and her wicked husband, Andras, arrived on Skaljard circa 177 AR, Month 11 and began taking control over the small town while facilitating pacting to Orcus. Over the coming months, Victoria would build a large following and make regular sojourns to the crypts of Dun Marle, where she bathed the mummified remains of the first Laird in the essence of Thanatos. Once the remains had been adequately prepared, she led her fellow cultists in bringing the heart to the surface, where they raised the Laird under Victoria's command and ordered him to destroy Skaljard.

In Skaljard, adventurers were caught unawares as they sat in merriment around the village's central campfire. The first wave of the Laird's forces assaulted the village, resulting in a massive battle as legions of the undead poured from the mountains into the town. Wave after wave of skeletons, zombies, flesh abominations, and skeletal giants came in the scores until, finally, the village defenders managed to repel the assault.

Gaining the advantage, the village defenders pushed outward to follow the hoards of undead toward their origin at the cultist's ritual site. Once the adventurers found the cultists, Victoria destroyed the Laird's vessel in a final effort to curse the land. Soon after, a skirmish ensued, and the cultists were overwhelmed and fled the island of Skal. Meanwhile, the adventurers managed to create a new vessel and purify the Laird's remains, returning him to rest once more.
