The Manifestation of Evil has been vanquished and the undead driven from the cities, but the fight against evil forces continues and the need to push back Veylara and the Shadow Reavers continues in Ter Mur. Demonic forces have taken over an island, access to it has been created through a portal south of the west gate of Royal City.
In place of the usual altar, a corrupted Oak tree is surrounded by Runestones.
The 16 runestones represent the usual 16 red candles which surround the altar. As the spawn progresses the runestones will activate, beginning to glow. Flames will also appear on the front four candles, representing the usual inner, white, candles.
Spawn Waves will consist of:
- Greater Mongbats and Imps
- Arcane Daemons and Chaos Daemons
- Molochs and Enslaved Gargoyles
- Shadow Reavers (initiates, acolytes, berserkers) and Balron
The Champions, Moltrog the Void Seer and Vorothal the Mindflayer are protected by the runestones and invulnerable, but the runestones themselves now become vulnerable. Destroy the runestones to end the champions’ protection to enable them to be killed. 
During the spawn Shadowblight blooms will fall into fighter’s packs in a variety of different styles and in a number of common and rare hues.
