      |                                                                 |
      |  After many eons of seeming emptiness, the cloaking illusion    |
      |  of the fell Sorceress Naris has been lifted from the building  |
      |  known unto men as Redferne's Residence, or alternatively, The  |
      |  Stronghold of Naris.                                           |
      |                                                                 |
      |  Redferne was a loyal knight paladin, true in both sword and    |
      |  honor. Betrothed in marriage to the lovely Naris of Thalos at  |
      |  a young age, they built a grand fortress and their lands       |
      |  prospered. Naris, alas, dabbled in sorcery, and as the years   |
      |  progressed, her soul was overtaken by the evils below.         |
      |                                                                 |
      |  When the fiend liches came to claim her body and soul, a       |
      |  mighty battle ensued, in which Redferne himself is known to    |
      |  have lost his life. Less is known of Naris' fate.              |
      |                                                                 |
      |  The illusion of emptiness was in some manner related to the    |
      |  strange location the fortress formerly held, floating in the   |
      |  firmament of Darkhaven. When the spell was broken, the         |
      |  fortress returned to its location of old, behind great dark    |
      |  gates in a quiet corner of what is now referred to as the 'Old |
      |  Marsh.'                                                        |
      |                                                                 |
      |                                                                 |
