I do not have this event logged, though I dearly wish I did. I, being a low-ranked healer and newly initiated into the Cult of the Ruby Scarab, arrived at the shrine of my Father to find several of those blinded by the fog of illusion assaulting the Lich Coprophagous. Scaurus counted among their number, as did a certain lightwalking felar warrior of some reknown, a transmuter, and another warrior, I believe. Four in total. They had apparently stumbled into the room by accident, and were now attempting to figure out what to do... The warrior had rescued Scaurus, and Scaurus had calmed the lich and then set it to sleep with the song Cold. I stood and taunted them for a good while, and then I awakened the Lich with my communes... and it simply stood there. I prayed to the heavens, saying, "It is not right that this Lich would stand and watch my Father's holy ground be desecrated by these scum! It is not right that he would be bewildered so! His enemies are here, and ripe for the taking! Let the Dark Gods strike these fools down where they stand!" And lo, this beast did spring to life, slaying Scaurus despite the warriors' repeated attempts to rescue him. The others fell soon after. Then I, in my jubilation, began the long process of spamming "g all corpse;whisper Embrace the Dark;drop all;u" over and over, emptying all four corpses. This was the day that I would be acquainted with the defiling powers of the Father's shrine:
