    Rumors: The Mausoleum of Fallen Heroes in Stonewood has seen too many visitors for my liking as of late. They appear to be Dwarves but some larger cloaked figures are among them. I could just be paranoid but something in my years or service to Stonewood tells me something is afoot. Stones help us if it is what I think is happening comes true.

The Death Knights will be Killing Blow Active should they have a chance to raise more Undead. The Vampire Lord will try to Arcane Vampire Charm PCs so kill their friends. The Abominations are shock troops, they will rush and try to kill who they can. The Death Knights Will rest 2 times and the Undead Abominations will reset 4 times. This module is designed for seasoned adventurers or the town to help.
