Lord Balar,

We intercepted a gnome going by the name of Smutch. After a brief interrogation we released him as harmless. Later on we have heard reports of disease ridden skeletons walking the land. We request aid in investigating these reports.

Feir'dal Rangers watching the pass into Lesser Faydark have intercepted the following:

A scruffy gnome carrying an encoded message to Neriak. The gnome died shortly after capture from a violent disease. The Rangers who caught the gnome were able to deliver the note before they two fell to the same disease. Koade'vie priests of Tunare were able to contain it before any harm to the Populations of Greater Faydark could occur.
