Death's Abyss

The Arkeum Legion sent one expedition after another into Syleus's Abyss, desperate to harness the dark power residing within. None were prepared to face the countless monsters roaming the passageways, nor navigate the labyrinth. Every expedition failed. Upon discovering Heliber, the Legion seized on the idea of using him to gain control over the Abyss. They eventually managed to capture him, imprisoning him in a stone casket. Yet even stone could not hold Heliber forever, and when he broke free of his prison, he was even stronger than before. The sole Arkeum Shadowmancer to survive the encounter called upon the specter Karnix for help.
