The House of Uwanja

Civil action

The Sexiles are hired by the Merchant Prince Wakanga O'Tamu to investigate the dark magic happening in the Uwanja Villa and put a stop to it.   He sends the group with his agent, Kristoff Kallahn, who had been watching the Villa, which belongs to a wizard, M'Kufu Uwanja. M'Kufu had been dealing in dark secrets of necromancy, and his house was trapped and defended. Kristoff however turned out to be a fake, a copy by some changling shapeshifter, who seemingly worked for some other Master entirely. He too wanted M'Kufu's ritual stopped, for his own ends.   M'Kufu's ritual goes awry, he is transformed into a horrifying monster of bone and death, which the Sexiles destroy thanks to the Mace of Disruption wielded by Pheno.   Wakanga awards them with magical items and the Villa to use as their own base of operations. M'Kufu's infant son, and ritual book are given to Wakanga's care.
