I am Aethelred the Ashen. I am the eternal one, whose mastery of death is unmatched by any living being. Though I am trapped within this phylactery, I know that my time will come again. And now, thanks to the greed of foolish raiders who disturbed my tomb, that time has arrived. I require a new host body to inhabit. Beware, mortals, for my power is vast and my patience is infinite.
