The Rise of Nagash

by Mike Lee

  Arkhan had what he’d come for: three of Nagash’s tomes, chosen randomly from the pile. It didn’t matter that he might not be able to use the knowledge contained within, so long as no one else could as well. He’d taken crucial bits from the puzzle of Nagash’s masterwork, ensuring that no one would be able to master his most potent rituals. He would take them to his tower in the depths of the great desert and seal them away in the deepest vault he had.

  There would be no other master of the undead. For the first time in centuries, he was free.

  Moonlight shone faintly down the rocky tunnel ahead. Up above, the world waited. Soon enough, it would tremble at the sound of Arkhan’s name.
