Hallowed Scroll

Newly risen Forsaken priests find that their connection to the world has violently shifted. Delivered amidst the ongoing chaos of Deathknell's reclamation, the Hallowed Scroll directs nascent spellcasters to seek guidance within the settlement's ruined chapel. Marked with the seal of Dark Cleric Duesten, the parchment serves as both an introduction and an order to report for formal instruction, initiating the priest into the pragmatic philosophy that defines Forsaken priesthood.

Upon answering the scroll's summons, priests are immediately disabused of old dogmas. Duesten makes it clear that traditional crutches—the veneration of the Holy Light, ancestral spirits, or demonic pacts—no longer serve the undead. Instead, the scroll marks the start of an inward discipline rooted strictly in individual willpower. The teachings initiated by this parchment emphasize surviving and ruling through sheer conviction, turning religious devotion into an instrument of self-determination and mastery.
