(we're fighting for life, yes we're fighting for life)

about

In Namaha they tell of Kleitus the Covetous, a cautionary tale of of avarice and recklessness. All his life Kleitus wanted to be a hero, rich and powerful. He went searching for the lost golden helmet of the ancient Aabernaths, rumored to be buried beneath the catacombs of Namaha in a secret vault. The helmet had held the wine shared between the Aabernaths and their hostile neighbors the Gruffald as proof of their treaty. This same helmet was worn by King Kipp of the Aabernaths as he led his armies to battle with the Gruffald after the treated was violated. It is disputed who violated the treaty.

Kleitus believed that discovering the helmet would solve all of his problems and make him a hero who’s legend would be passed down through the ages. Once underground, Kleitus had to fight the undead to get beneath the catacombs, a warren of dark, dank tunnels. He and all of his companions were killed. After an eternity, an Elder snatched Kleitus out of purgatory and ascended him to The Painted Mountain.
