[Plot Thread] The Herald of the Legion

*A notice is attached to the Church Doors, bearing the seal of the Preceptor*

People of Blackwell,
     Last evening, during a routine patrol of the village by agents of the Church, the citizens known as Sibyl Crow and Colin Hawk were found murdered beside the lamppost adjacent to the Sheriff's Office. The child, Sibyl, was dead when the Church arrived, having been stabbed with a long knife. Hawk was found alive, evidently hallucinating, and all attempts to wake him failed. He later suffered what appeared to be some form of heart failure, and his corpse soon reanimated and had to be destroyed.
     At this time, it is not the opinion of the Church that this was a murder-suicide. The relevant details will be conveyed to the Sheriff and Militia Captain with all due haste, and the townsfolk are asked to report any strange or supernatural occurrences. If you believe you believe you are in danger, seek refuge in the Church.

                                                                                  Remain Calm,
                                                                                  Preceptor Erik

*A sketch of the knife is attached, easily recognizable as a less rusty version of that used by the Exemplar of the Legion in the villagers' mass nightmares.*

Re: [Plot Thread] The Herald of the Legion

The nightmares that swept the village in the previous month have continued, growing in frequency. The most recent round features not eight robed figures seated at the tables, but nine, with a tenth being added following the ritual being witnessed. The victims seen are varying between Sibyl Crow, Colin Hawk, and Arthur Stafford, according to which one the person experiencing the dream knew best.

Rumors and whispers that one of the robed creatures seen in the nightmare has been appearing around the village are spreading.
