[Diary] Devoided of Illusions

[Nerazmus 8]

You've found a book in one of the old houses in Plaguelands, as you open it a tattered piece of paper falls out:

Following is the actual diary

I see it clearly now. They are all the same, twisted, corrupted, hiding behind their blazing, shiny armor. But they won’t help you, not when you need them. They will only show up to make a good look and make a bunch of false promises. They deserve what is coming to them. My master will purge their filth from this world and restore his rightful empire.

When the scourge attacked my village, it were not the mighty paladins who showed up, it weren’t king’s knights who came to our rescue, no. It was he who saved me, my beloved master. He stopped the undead horde, he showed me where to hide. Yes. He gave power to do something, he gave me courage to stand up.

Now I will repay him. In his name I shall act. I’ll spread the word and find new followers. Because human lords tainted good people’s minds by false believe in the Light. They forgot who granted them so much. But I shall make them remember. I will enlighten them once more and they will see the truth. I will cure these poor people from their misguided beliefs and I’ll lead them on the right path. For that is his will.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                            

Today I have run into another false-believer. He was looking at me with hate, as if I was the evil one. He should have been thankful instead, it was I who saved his wife after all. But no, he was just spouting out nonsenses. His mind was clearly tainted, I could say that this was very bad case of total brainwash. This man haven’t a bit of sanity left in him, how horrible can these false priests be… I knew I had to act quickly and even then, I might not be able to save him, release him from their grasp. It turned out to be even worse than I expected. Not just his mind, but his whole body fell to the corruption. The corruption sprouted out of him and tried to get me, but I’m protected by my god, it would take much more to overcome me. There was no hope left for that man. I had to put him out of his misery. The corruption was trying to save its host, but it wasn’t strong enough. At least that man’s spirit can rest in peace, forever free from grasps of corruption. I was able to provide only this for him. I burned his body and scattered the ash. I also took all items he had on him, I’ll have to try remove the foul curses from them, and if that doesn’t work, I’ll have to destroy them. Also I have to look for his son and find him as soon as possible. He is young and the corruption may not be rooted so deep in him. I hope I will be able to save him at least, so he can carry on his family legacy, no longer tainted, but free from the grasp of evil.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                            

More to come soon
