Regent Tathal to Honour our alliance with The Unicorns nation let a contingent of Tarantulas to aid our allies in finally and decisively dealing with their Bedlam issue. Under the cover of darkness our forces proceeded into the area surrounding Bedlam an area previously made uninhabitable by the Plague of Bedlam*. The effects of the plague recently mitigated to now only affect though who entered the city itself and also the transport circle at its centre the objective a small town on the outskirts of the city itself.

Scouting forces had been unable to delve too far into the area due to numerous hordes of unliving in the area. These hoards would assault the strike force for several hours as we progressed. The assault on the town itself was swift, and although the fighting did attract hordes from the surrounding area they soon dissipated away leaving the town secure. Scouting forces searched the surrounding area locating various signs of activity and three distinct set of groups operating in the area. A local temple and several mass graves had been desecrated. An abandoned library, and finally some Skaven activity in form of an Alchemical lab with trace amounts of lethal alchemical poisons affecting elementals and it was rumoured unliving. Finally a portal to the Plains of Unlife. Skaven tampering had increased its size from a single person to something wish would allow several figures to pass through.

That evening the first of the visions appeared. This one appeared to be of Bedlem being taken for sacrifice and made protector of the region or whichever role she fulfilled. A second the following day was Bedlam trying to create shrines while being heckled and broken by local villagers, These Visions were memories of Bedlam with these memories some of which had been twisted the Unicorns believed they could restore Bedlam to her former self and protector of the lands and not the corrupted being she had become.

The temple was once again dedicated to the ancestors. We saw to it that Lloth and her Pantheon were more that suitably represented in the re-consecration of that holy place.

The only thing of note found within the library was a book which allowed messages entered into its pages to be sent to a corresponding book in the Planes of Unlife. We learnt that this mirrored book was in the possession of a Skaven lich (60) who resided at the other side of the nearby portal. Its presence sustained the portal and although the methods used by the Skaven to increase the size of the portal could easily be destroyed this would significantly damage the surrounding area.

The unicorns were able to trick the lich into coming though the portal were it was quickly eliminated along with its phylactery. This complete the portal spewing out fresh hordes of unliving began to collapse ending the unliving threat in the area.

With the Unliving threat dealt with and Bedlams memories retrieved only our primary objective remained. With the retrieval of Bedlams Memories the preferred route to victory was to restore Bedlams true nature and purpose as protector. To start with we performed a rite by the transport circle to begin the process meanwhile Bedlams forces assaulted us over tie as bedlam was restored the forces assaulting use diminished in power before fading away completely. Jenny of the Uniorns a resident of the region was empowered to act as protector of the City of bedlam going forward

Additional notes Unicorns received a message that Grynd was under attack and sent a force to investigate. This force was then waylaid by pirates loosing several valuable items. The Unicorn’s reaction was to send our full force on the rescue mission. We would successfully retrieve the scout force without further losses. Incidentally a force of dollies found us while on Grynd. They were looking for a missing Dolly. We at first believed the dolly must have been taken by the Pirates, as it turned out however, during a recent Incantors guild gathering a dolly has turned up delivering a message to some visiting Tarantulas, The dolly never returned to Kyleth and instead was taken “on a tour of unicorn lands”. When the dolly was returned by the unicorn guides the dolly force left without further issue.

*The Plague of Bedlam By the time our forces arrived in the cities vicinity the curse was only found to be affecting the area within city itself which included the transport circle.
