Our fourth episode starts with the end … of Mordheim! We explore the destruction of the city, its cause, the warbands that flock to the city for Wyrdstone (TM), some of the more notable locations, and what, if any, benefits this all provides to Vlad von Carstien, the Vampire Count of Sylvania. We then pivot into the story of the First Vampire War, where the Empire is once again brought to the brink of destruction! We look at the impact this has on both the Living and the Dead as Vlad goes on his happy-funtime tour of zombie recruitment being destroyed and returning to “life” several times. We close out with the story of Felix Mann, the Empire's greatest thief who *spoiler warning* steals something of great importance from the vampire's nap camp leading ultimately to Vlad's true death.   This month's episode is sponsored by Sylvanian Childcare Programme.   Production assistance from James 'That One A*****e' Alquist.   Show Notes and Imagery for this Episode: https://layingdownthelore.com/ep26/   _______________________   If you dig what we're putting down and want more juicy content, head over to our Patreon.
