[Balanor]

Hope remains! As elements of Szass Tam's new undead army are recalled from Rashemen and make their way south, it has become apparent to the commonfolk of Thay that the zulkirs of Evocation, Conjuration, and Necromancy have put aside their differences and are now working together to end the Salamander War and end the Salamander threat once and for all.

While a few battle reports from skirmishes between the undead forces and Salamanders have not proved encouraging for the flame-vulnerable undead, the Lapendrar legion and those in the fight are confident the zulkirs will overcome their enemies by overwhelming might and force of will. And in the end the Salamanders will pay dearly for their betrayal!
