Return to Story Vignettes Bloodhorn Bloodhorn was the greatest of the Gurog chiefs. Cunning and ruthless, he slew his rivals and united the tribes. Geraine went to Bloodhorn's court, offering power and riches. In return, he asked one thing … his service. But the chief was proud. He Challenged Geraine, thinking to slay him and be done.

Thus, with a single spell, the Gurog becames thralls to darkness.
