| ''Only after consulting the dusty, worm-eaten tome given to me by [[Mad Mikaal]] did I grasp the nature of the killings that gripped the city for the last four months. A murder once every five days, done with varying weapons - [[axe]], spear, [[sword]], flail, [[scythe]], dagger, sickle, club. At every murder, three symbols smeared in blood. Every body marked with strange punctures.''
| |
| | |
| ''The book, a ancient history of [[Bergovitsa]], at first seemed a pointless distraction, written in an archaic form of [[Vaasi]] and so deteriorated that its title was lost to mildew. But in the midst of lists of long-dead officials and accounts of criminals hung, I found the clue Mikaal had meant for me to find. The three symbols from the crimes looked back at me from the page.''

| ''The faded script revealed that the symbols, reading 'Roh An Kaut' described a kind of spiritual belief - the details of which were over my head - subscribed to by a society or cult called the [[The Circle of Roh An Kaut|Circle of Roh An Kaut]]. The followers of Roh An Kaut plagued the city at some point in the past, killing once a fiveday. Each member of the Circle of Roh An Kaut wielded a specific weapon; an axe, a spear, and a flail were mentioned.''
| |
| | |
| ''According to the record, the entire Circle was eventually trapped in their lair and the entire structure put to the torch. After the fire had done its work, the bodies of the killers were thrown into a deep pit beneath the city and the pit filled with stones.''

| ''At the end of this tale was a drawing, without caption or explanation. It showed a gape-jawed skull of malevolent aspect with a fat, clawed worm protruding from its jaws.''
