You send a message to him via ghostly courier and in the next day you get one back. He says he’ll be there soon, which relieves you a bit. In the meantime you continue to try to break through the capital’s defenses and repair some of your more salvageable troops that have fallen.
About a week passes and the Ghoul King hasn’t shown up yet, you’ve suffered a counter attack which allowed you to temporary replenish your troops, but you lost quite a few necromancers in the process. The strain of commanding such a large army is making you a little more fatigued than it would if you had some support. You send a message to the Ghoul King again as well as to Catalina. You don’t get anything back from the Ghoul King, but Catalina tells you she hasn’t heard from him either and she’s had to defend the home territory from Velzix who heard about how preoccupied you are with the Grand Alliance and is taking advantage of the situation.
A month passes and you have to retreat from the siege. You’re the last remaining necromancer and you’ve been running on empty. The Grand Alliance along with the Zalan military has completely decimated most of your troops with holy magic and powerful gunpowder weapons. You have to make your make back to Aftermath mostly through hostile territory now since most of your recent conquests have been liberated.
By the time you get to Aftermath you find it in ruins. It has been thoroughly raided by Velzix’s elite demon warriors. You rush in to check on Catalina, but you find her ripped to shreds by demons.
You cry out vowing revenge as you hold on to her body, but there will be no revenge for you. Your back is suddenly home to several stabbing blades. You attempt to turn around to face your attacker, and when you do your throat is slashed open. Clutching your throat you bleed out onto the floor before the vampire assassin completes the job and severs your head from your body.
