The scouts managed to transmit a message. The leather book was telling the truth. In the mountains the undead led by a lich settled in an ancient crypt. Everything suggests that they can defeat him, their faith in the Holy Deed is strong and it will definitely help to win, but many will not return. There is a risk and at this stage of development, defeat will be a disaster. But the promised treasures can also turn his Church into a serious force in the region. He sighed and took a step along the road to the crypt. His warriors, swords drawn, moved after him...

The high priest looked at the underling and shook his head. 

"What we have here," he paused, for a thin smile - " is a failure to communicate."

With a short, sharp, shove, the priest plummetted down the shaft into the underworld with a despairing cry that went on for a terribly long time.

March, Year 2

The tides of war shift, and not always in our favor. Ciespick, a city we've kept a close eye on, has fallen. The alliance of OrTOdox and Friendly people, with their combined might and the use of mages, overwhelmed the City Guard of Ciespick. The Guardsmen stood no chance. The city's fortifications, which include two towering structures and a fort still under construction, now belong to the alliance. The economic prosperity of Ciespick, evident from its bustling caravanserai, is now in the hands of our potential adversaries.

However, not all is grim. Our battle group has reached its intended destination, and with the support of our allies, we are poised to strike at a nearby settlement. The moment is ripe, and we await the perfect opportunity to unleash our might. The fall of Ciespick serves as a reminder that in this ever-changing world, one must be vigilant and adaptive. We will learn from this, strategize, and continue our march toward dominance. The Order of Obsidian Shadow will not be deterred.

Chapter 9: The Mountain's Embrace
The mountains, apart from their strategic defensive position, revealed a new gift: vast reserves of iron. Miners and blacksmiths, with a hint of magic, began forging weapons and tools of unparalleled quality. The mountains not only offered protection against invasions but also became the backbone of Revenge of Cone's survival against the impending winter.

As snow began to fall, blanketing the landscape, Revenge of Cone, armed with their faith, technology, and newfound allies, stood defiantly, ready to face any challenge the world threw at them. The long winter would test their mettle, but with the power of Conus Mysticus guiding them, they were poised not just to endure but to thrive.
