This is to inform you that Ignatiev has killed the deep gnome Machinists. He has been in contact with, and making deals with the Chosen for an unknown amount of time. They have promised a new town, a "safe land" where they would let us live in peace, in exchange for this murdur of the deep gnomes.
Their death is what sparked the eerie Chosen celebrations.
This group of Murdurers includes the fat warrior who uses a dwarven axe and svirfneblin shield as well as the priestess of Chauntea.
A Black Chosen has also been conversing with this group about a tunnel thought to be Bresley's way.
