Part 1: The Death of [[Zek]]
[[Vol]], the god of death, is an old and kind god. He guards the sea of souls within the world, ensuring that everyone who dies here, be they mortal, demon, or even god, return their life force to the soul sea, to live in comfort until such time as they are drawn into the world again.
But [[Vol]] had a brother, [[Zek]], a cruel god who captured souls in his chalice - a mythical goblet that could contain countless souls. Those who died while feeling an overwhelming dark emotion, such as hate or fear, were in danger of falling into his chalice. [[Zek]] caught far fewer souls than [[Vol]], but the ones he did catch were kept in torment.
Sometimes [[Zek]] would drink from his chalice, consuming souls to amuse himself, but most souls in the chalice were sent back to the world as undead. Conjured by evil necromancers, these poor creatures were forced to live as slaves until they died again and were returned to the chalice - where they suffered renewed torment. These souls were reborn countless times, never resting, always in anguish.
