“These rumors have their foundations in fact,” said Silar. “According to the histories of my order, Castle Cravenlock has been home to three separate San-keth cults. In fact, the castle was raised by the serpent worshippers.

My home monastery was founded to keep watch over the castle so no cult would rise again.” A wry smile formed on his lips. “It appears we failed.”
