Since the opening of the Dorgesh-Kaan - Keldagrim Train System, Sigmund took up residence in a secret basement under the mill, with glyphs on the wall preventing teleportation. When Grubfoot visited the Plain of Mud, he was abducted by the HAM agents and taken to the base. At roughly the same time, H.A.M. agent Walton was sent to Dorgesh-Kaan, disguised as a merchant and started poisoning the children of the city, until he was arrested and even killed by Zanik, who had been influenced by Bandos himself.
