Synopsis

A character, seemingly the protagonist, resurrects a recently killed individual as a Death Knight, showcasing their proficiency in dark magic. They explain the process involves manipulating souls rather than mana, allowing for the reanimation of powerful individuals. The Death Knight, though decaying, provides vital intelligence about the Malone Duchy's connection to the Adventurer's Guild's inner circle called the "Committee," as well as Duke Malone's powerful position within it, before giving information about his own orders.
