  • Wretched Spire, on a table in a shack east of the Innkeeper, in the southern part of the town (map)
When the Spires Fell
A song describing Dagon's attack on Mournhold

Thunder pealed and the sky split open wide
The beast arrived and he brought his fiends
Ripped a hole where the temple stood
But we refused to fall to our knees

The storms keep roiling overhead
And the beast stalks around outside
But as long as I stay in Wretched Spire
I can keep my hopes alive

Slammed down with a boom and a shriek
Clouds of dust filling our lungs
Crying gets you nowhere
Keep your heads down and hold your tongues

The storms keep roiling overhead
And the beast stalks around outside
But as long as I stay in Wretched Spire
I can keep my hopes alive

Let me tell you, wretched listener
Though this town may protect from strife
No one can say how long we'll last
Standing on the edge of life

The storms keep roiling overhead
And the beast stalks around outside
But as long as I stay in Wretched Spire
I can keep my hopes alive

The spire's bell no longer tolls
No answers found in any tome
Outcasts all, hiding from Dagon's sight
Praying we can find our way home
