Recap: When the town of Minsterhaus came under attack, the townsfolk knew that the time was now for the hero Orain to rise from his slumber and rescue them. All they had to do was ring the magic bell and he would awaken, healed of his wounds from a deadly fight with the Wyrm of Minsterhaus. When the bell was rung, and nobody answered, they began to fear.
The Party went into the foothills to find Orain's tomb, but when they got there, his body was gone. Deducing that his body had been stolen by a cult known as the Disciples of Shadow, they finally tracked down the cult to their headquarters in the city of Bloxburg.
But when they finally penetrated the depths of the ruined temple, they found Orain's body lying on a sacrificial altar, dead. He had been drained of his blood as part of a resurrection ritual that required the blood of the target's nemesis. The party carried Orain's body back to town, and his body is now being held in a Pelorian mortuary.
