Associates hunt down the King Graveknight and bring him home for disintegration.
Log
Apparently some bugbear guy got cursed by graveknight armor and raised an undead army. Scary stuff! Well the Hellknights and some other associates were handling that undead army situation, while it was our job to breach the fortress and bring down the graveknight for the first time on our journey. Based on what the other associates and I discussed, we're pretty sure this'll get us into the Associates Plus tier. It's what a lot of the other big names did back in the day to get where they are now, after all.
So anyway we found a broken window and jumped right in, cutting through undead hordes and eventually drawing the attention of the big man himself! His lightning blasts and all that were scary, but not *that* scary. He really liked grabbing people though, and I'm not a fan of being grabbed, so there was a lot of throwing him around to keep him off people. We eventually killed him and started hurrying him back to Onadbyr for some big name to obliterate, but along the way, I think 4 days in? He got back up. Thankfully between preemptive disarming and some tinkering by Dendra, the second fight was much easier. After that we got him back to town, and I think they got Kali or someone to blast it into non-existence? Anyway, I'm pretty excited to see the benefits of Associate Plus in the near future now that we've brought down a Graveknight ourselves.
