"I slew one," he answers, and unbidden launches into the tale. "Umaril the Unfeathered. In a bygone age, when the old elves ruled the land and held all others as slaves, one of their patrons was Umaril the Unfeathered. A human, Pelinor Whitestrake, was driven by his hatred of the elf tyrants to strike against Umaril, and he Eight Divines gave him their blessings, in the form of sacred armor and arms, relics which I now bear. He slew Umaril, and was slain in his turn by the elvish wizard-kings. It is said that his head imparted his last testament to his brother after it had been severed from his body, and all the other pieces scattered."

"Umaril returned to the world recently, having recovered in Oblivion enough to once again act upon the world. He sought to punish the gods he felt had turned against him by sending his minions to murder the priests in their temples. Many were tasked to try to recover the Crusader's relics, and by the grace of the Nine, I succeeded. When I faced Umaril in battle, I slew him as did Pelinal before me. And where eight gods had blessed Pelinal, there was now a ninth who could add his blessing, allowing me to pursue Umaril's soul into Oblivion and smite it there."
