Help on: area shadowguard keep

Spurred by his lust for power, Alester made a pact with the god Thurvun to dominate the world. With Thurvun on his side, the high priest and his lords of terror shrouded the world in darkness. Alestar took his horde north and established a throne and from there he ruled his conquered world...his reign was not without turmoil; the covenant between the high priest and god broke...cursed and abandoned, Alester grew madder by the day.

His madness would drive him to suspect every whisper and unconfirmed report. A rumor of a usurper would finally reach the throne. Fearing that the prophecy of his demise may come to pass, he commanded one of his generals, Hashak to dispatch a company to put an end to the upraising and establish a command installation in the south. The post would be vital in his efforts to quell the unruly populace.

The task would fall to a commander known for his cunning and cruel disposition. Khanzab stood above all others; a hard-nosed tactician and veteran of a hundred battles. He took this calling with great stride. Khanzab and his lieutenants slowly made their way south and laid fire to every town and village that dared voice a challenge. In their wake, the commander and his legion of apparitions left a path of scorched earth and destruction.

...It is said that true evil is born in battle���there they stood, amid the darkness and chaos���

    prime tactical position. Be wary, however, the commander and his
    lieutenants do not take kindly to visitors.
