    In the early hours of Redfall 5, the Queen reported Kithri Moontender, her beloved lady-in-waiting, missing. A few hours later lady's mutilated corpse was discovered in one of the guest rooms reserved for noble visitors.   Despite thorough investigations, the culprit never was caught. Her corpse vanished before she could be buried. The Queen was so enraged that she had the members of the Royal Guard on duty in that part of the palace fired and exiled from the city.
