The Theran Mystique - Volume 3, Issue 5
Dartheryn talks with Thkot:

In return for aiding his release from the Keep of D'al Kaddar, Thkot granted the Heralds a brief interview, and told a captivating story about a recent battle. I arrived in the realmth rethently to find that I wath not allowed into my guild. I wath not allowed in due to an urgent tathk of the Dark Lord. The Warlordth had taken thomething important to uth, and I needed to get it back. I athked Nathi to return it, but he refuthed, even thaid he couldn't.

I went to their fortreth to retrieve it mythelf. Nathi thtopped me, but I went back and forth many timeth, wearing down the thyclopth. Eventually Taurth arrived. Unaccuthtomed ath I am to violenthe, I wath quickly thlain. I wath fighting the Thyclopth when Taurth engaged me. I fled into the fortreth, but I wath badly hurt. Taurth quickly killed me there.

I found mythelf in my temple, with Nathi waiting, but I wath a ghotht. All of my thingth were inacthethible within the fortreth. But I felt compelled to continue. I had to go back. I really wanted that thkull. It'th the motht beautiful thkull. Have you ever theen it? It'th amathing. It'th made of crythtal and filled with dark red blood. Thometimeth, when I don't have other dutieth, I thit and look at it for hourth.

I picked up a chieftan'th ththeptre and went back. They weren't ekthpecting thith, tho they were thlow to arrive. I finithed off the thyclopth. I retrieved that thkull, that beautiful, prethiouth thkull. That thkull that thowerth me with countleth other thkullth. Nathi attacked me even before I left the fortreth. Then he retreated to the bridge thouth of Timaran. Together He and Taurth fought me though I tried to get patht. Taurth dealt the final blow.

The thkull wath lotht again. A thecond death, and no beautiful thkull. It wath terrible for me, but more terrible for Taurth. Interethtingly, not long after he made himthelf an enemy of the Dark Lord in thith way, he died hith final death. A thtrange thing happened to Nathi ath well. Not long after thith inthident, he mythteriouthly dithappeared. The nektht anyone thaw of him wath hith ghotht. Nobody knowth where he went or how he died. It doethn't pay to make onethelf an enemy of the Dark Lord."

I hope you'll agree, it makes an interesting read, if one can get past the idiosyncracies of pronounciation.
