<strong>Karrnath</strong>(http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100409043357/eberron/images/4/44/Map_Karrnath.jpg), land of conquerors, land of warriors and land of the living dead. Karrnath has many names and each one is well deserved, a country which has held many of the ancient traditions compared to other Five Nations (not including Cyre which has blown up and now refugees scrap to survive in Breland).<br/><br/>Karrnath is ruled by monarchy and present ruler is Kaius III (http://eberron.wikia.com/wiki/Kaius_III), very few even knowing that in truth he is a ancient vampire who was none other than Kaius ir'Wynarn, very man who refused accept his half-sibling to throne of Galifar and started Last War effectively speaking. Fewer even know he has a adopted daugther which he had strictly kept secret out of the public, as his enemy is very faith of his own country itself; Blood of Vol (http://eberron.wikia.com/wiki/Blood_of_Vol). A religion which he has tried slowly break down despite he originally allowed it flourish, but even with cutting off support from crown itself, his own people revered the blood cult and he also fears what Order of the Emerald Claw (http://eberron.wikia.com/wiki/Order_of_the_Emerald_Claw), his former elite soldiers and agents which only held loyalty to Blood of Vol, would do if they found out he has a daughter.<br/><br/>However, daughter has been raised and protected in shadows, but now by her will and persuasion she had convinced her father to be less protective and allow her help him with Vol herself. Kaius had heard there is a Cyran lich, a powerful undead, residing somewhere in Mournland. Kaius wishes acquire him as a ally, tricky to find and lot trickier to convince to ally with king of very nation which was sworn enemy of Cyre. So the daugther goes on her quest, but not before Kaius uses his contact to hire a mercenary to help her. Her mercenary contact is already in Korth (http://cdn.obsidianportal.com/assets/61848/Korth_Map_Small.jpg), in the commerce district in a tavern known as Skeever's Den (http://cdn.obsidianportal.com/assets/164312/tavern.jpg). Kaius does not tell description nor what he or she is alike, only told that;<strong>"Your contact is a changeling, so expect <em>anything</em>. Your contact initiates dialog by asking <em>Karrnath mornings are misty and cold</em>....you should reply then <em>but fireplace at home are warm and bright</em>."</strong><br/><br/>With that information daughter prepares and starts her journey in the palace itself, place which had been her home past years since she was discovered in ancient tomb underneath the palace after Day of Mourning (http://eberron.wikia.com/wiki/Day_of_Mourning).
