Notes from author
Long ago, the denizens of Millwood abandoned their forest homeland for reasons unknown, though, presumably, driven away by the heinous Abyss Dragon. While most found of the drifters found themselves whisped away to a cold and lonesome painted world, it seems one remained in the material realm, and eventually found himself afflicted with the Darksign and locked away in an asylum amidst the mountains to await the end of the Age of Fire.... But this grizzled being did not stay put for long, freed by a mysterious Astoran Knight and given new purpose. He set out to break the undead curse and continue his search for his stray kin, not knowing that reunion with his only dear beings in this cruel world never would come, no matter how many shambling hollows or beasts or even gods that he smashed and crushed and shattered and ground and pulverised into red paste beneath his boots.
