Rumors about the return of Dagoth Ur

Rumors have long stalked the temple halls of the return of The Sharmat, spreader of Corpus, the corrupter of hearts, the architect of the Akulakhan. I speak, of course, of the blighted one, Dagoth Ur.

We now know this word has been spread by a traitorous priest who once served Her faithfully. The Diviner, necromancer, and my former friend, Erden Relvel.

It is his creations that accosts Her temple, but I know not the source of his power. My fear is the truth may be found in the armory.

Before we began building this temple, my predecessor gave me a gift. Or rather, a responsibility. A box.

The box was to be placed in the armory, but never opened. In fact, his voice stumbled at the mere mention of it, and his hands gripped the edges as if to drop it would shatter the world. As such, I heeded his warning when he begged me never to look inside. To this day, I do not know how to open the rear gate.

Yet the restoration of this temple has required many hands, and not all of them Hers. It's possible someone has found a way inside.

Take the armory key I have given you and investigate the area. Only with the full power of the Tribunal, and our Goddess' will, can evil be vanquished.
