High up in the treacherous Ash Mountains is the city of Hartmur. The city
lies upon a long dead trade route through the mountain range. The eldest of
the citizens can remember a time when the city was beautiful to look upon...
before the darkness came. A powerful spell, woven by the mages of what has
become known as the Undead City, keeps the sky overcast with a thick cover of
clouds. The people began to despair - the days were in twilight, and the
nights blackest pitch. Undead from the nearby city began roaming the street,
people were afraid to go outside, keeping their doors barred shut.

The Mage Guild and Black Temple came shortly after the darkness enveloped the
city. Only a few people have any scraps of knowledge about the strange tower
in the middle of market square or the hideous Temple along Royal Street.
Those who seek out the dangers of either without learning all they can are
never heard from again... a few return as gibbering madmen.
