A Note
To the Chosen Mesaana:
Often, it seems that I am relegated to being the bearer of unfortunate news, and today is no exception. A great deal has happened in the last few days, as you no doubt have realized, though your absence at the Council was... unfortunate. You may very well be curious about the whereabouts of your servant, Astoreth, and unfortunately, this is the nature of the bad news.
From what I am able to gather, Astoreth was sent to retrieve some articles from a storage container, one of which was a particularly fetching dress. Asmodean, who stayed the evening here on that particular night, put a particularly devious trap on the dress. He no doubt desired vengeance for the death of Malacoda. The trap discharged and Astoreth burned to death.
I took care of burial arrangements myself. Her ashes are in the rose garden, if you care to pay your respects. My sincerest regret for your loss.
Sincerely,
Ishamael
