“Thank you, Dark One,” you say.
“When you return to put an end to the kobold, the… Necromancer… I shall be with you.”

“This place shall be under my protection, also,” Death continues. “The elves who come here and pray to me shall be relieved of the burden of suffering. I shall bring them peace. Those who seek my gifts, with proper tribute… I shall hear their supplications.”

“It… Has been some time since I have had a congregation to tend to,” the Speaker of the Final Word admits. “But I will offer that which I deem appropriate, and grant their bodies and spirits succor, when the Serpent and Lady do not; I will grant knighthood to the worthy ones who desire it, in protection of this temple.”

The end of every life in and around Wevenore shall be marked by a descent into the domain of a Dark God, to a place protected by his faithful Death Knights, to find a peace granted by the Lord of Endings.
“You have done well, young one,” Death says, almost paternally. “Your mother would be proud. Your lover, also.”
You consider his words—great praise, and from a god!
