Tainted Letter
The Tainted Letter is a discreetly delivered summons bearing the seal of Drusilla La Salle, a warlock trainer lurking on the outskirts of Northshire Abbey. It directs aspiring human practitioners of the dark arts to report to her for specialized tutelage away from watchful eyes.
A Covert Summons
While priests, paladins, and standard soldiers train openly across the manicured lawns of Northshire Abbey, practitioners of fel magic must operate with far greater discretion. Handed to initiates returning from the nearby kobold camps, this letter carries the personal insignia of Drusilla La Salle. Bearing subtle traces of dark artifice, the missive instructs novice warlocks to seek out their mentor discreetly near the abbey's grounds before the local town guards and clerics become suspicious of their forbidden path.
The Price of Ambition
Meeting Drusilla reveals the necessity for such secretive measures. Warlocks are viewed with deep distrust by the mundane populace of Elwynn, forcing mentors to linger on the fringes and avoid prying sentries. Drusilla uses the delivered letter to initiate a critical lesson in discipline: arcane and nether magic invite relentless corruption, requiring practitioners to temper their surging ambition with patient self-control while communing with denizens of the Twisting Nether.
