Sarabayle

Sarabayle is a necromancer of the Cult of Myrkul found in Act Two. She can be found in the Moonrise Towers Prison after the party launch ⁠the assault on the cult.

Involvement

Sarabayle is always hostile when encountered. Along with her allied necromancers  Willinx Jindlebee and  Duckie Verish, she flanks the army of undead that greet anyone who trespasses into the prison.

Unlike the Zealots, Adepts, and other members of the Cult of the Absolute, it appears Sarabayle and the other Mistresses of Souls are fully aware of what the Absolute is and the religious hoax they're perpetrating. This greater understanding (and accompanying disdain) is shared by the other high-ranking Myrkulite necromancers serving  Ketheric Thorm, with  Kressa Bonedaughter bemoaning the weak servility of the infected she's presented with, and  Balthazar using the player character's worm-infested status as an expletive.

Winning the battle gains ⁠A Bone To Pick for party members with the  Soldier background.
