Introduction

The discovery of Katalam has greatly changed our knowledge about the ancient world of Pandaemonium.

The most noteworthy finding is that there lived an ancient race called the Danuar, who are never mentioned in the History of Atreia.

It was estimated that the Danuar had lived with ancient Humans of Atreia even before the Cataclysm happened, but the presumption was never confirmed until we came to Katalam. The Katalam Detachment obtained information that the survivors of this Danuar tribe remained in the Danuar Reliquary. This report summarizes the findings of an expedition sent into the Reliquary.

Danuar Reliquary

The Reliquary is presumed to have been a magic training center for the Danuar and is hidden in ruins. The Expedition investigated the tombstones and Relics scattered in the Idian Depths to locate the Reliquary. After a long investigation, the Reliquary's location was determined.

Only Grendal, a Danuar witch, remained in the Reliquary, along with a number of vengeful souls and spirits under her control. The ecology of the Reliquary is adjusted by Grendal’s will, though it is not known how.

Grendal

The current ruler of the Danuar Reliquary is Grendal, though it is possible that this entity is simply another spirit. It requires a further investigation to confirm where she came from and who she is. All the findings of the Expedition so far suggest that Grendal used to be a high-ranking mystic amongst the Danuar.

The power displayed by Grendal is of a unique type that has never been observed. It appears to be based on the substance we've come to know as Ide.

Necromancy

Records found in the Reliquary state that even in life, Grendal was able to control spirits and cast necromantic magics. Witness accounts indicate that necromancy has never been observed in Atreia thereafter, and that it is a power of communicating with the souls or controlling them to a certain degree.

We have decoded the documents of Danuar excavated in the Idian Depths and found that the Danuar conducted an experiment to revive the dead. The record implies that the goal of necromancy is to revive the dead only with the aid of Ide.

Conclusion

No survivors exist in the Danuar Reliquary. Grendal, the only notable entity, is most likely a vicious spirit and only a shell of her former self. Do not attempt to communicate with this entity. It is hostile.

It is strongly suggested to eliminate Grendal, as she may pose a serious threat to continued dealings in and around the Reliquary.
