Involvement[edit | edit source]
Act Two[edit | edit source]
At some point before the party's arrival, Korliss was indoctrinated into the Cult of the Absolute and made a True Soul. Charged by Ketheric Thorm with the mission to scout out and locate a nest of non-believers[2], she set out east from Moonrise Towers to the ruins of the village by the Ruined Battlefield, where she was stalked by the shadows and attempted to evade them, though she still ultimately perished later.
Casting 
on her reveals she was attacked by Shadow Mastiffs but repelled them by lighting torches with the Continual Flame spell. Unfortunately, with her protected area surrounded by Shadow Mastiffs, she was unable to leave her safety cordon and soon died of hunger and thirst before accomplishing her mission.
The party can destroy the torches which triggers an attack by three Shadow Mastiffs led by a Shadow Mastiff Alpha.
