2) Goblins are ruthless creatures, they only know how to destroy and survive. Rarely do any of these creatures bury a new member of death, but settled goblins are slightly more civilized and seek out arcane magick for purpose. Rituals of death have been spied by Arillian Scouts; they have reported gatherings south of their fortress and they have described it as a burial chamber.
Arcane Magick with a deathly race of creature is obviously a dangerous and catastrophic occurance amongst the already warring realm. Fearful the Republic of Harabec can be of difference in the absense of understanding. They feared necromancy and an attempt to raise enough goblin dead to conquer over the mountains and into royal grounds. Rangers of Harabec were dispatched to cross Bluefrost and journy deep into the Plains of Faravar where the scouts had marked and described.
The Rangers had arrived to a desert-like patch of earth, emptied by goblins and local wildlife. Only a stone totem had remained there in midst of desertion; markings describing it as the blockade to enter the burial site. Rangers in their ignorance shattered the totem, and the ground shifted; it revealed piles fresh goblin carcasses in the stairwell just below, abandoned there seemingly in a hastey retreat for the exit. The Rangers had seen no sign of struggle outside, yet a ravaged pile of goblin dead just inside the tomb.
Two of the men had stayed behind to guard their discovery, their names were Vincent Darkclaw of Harabec and Ichiro of Arilin. Vincent Darkclaw stays guard at the entry way protecting it from the animated bones that try to escape just below. Ichiro is stationed inside the southern outpost to endlessly retrieve supplies for his comrade. They know not of their companion, but only that they have no way to seal the exit from the numerous undead.

END CONTENTS
-This area was thought up from past experience in finding high level undead monsters to train on. I have suggested this area be limited to Master Characters and above in hopes to gain a slightly higher POD on these healable monsters.
-Items are just suggestions I had come up with, I am not at the moment in a position to test balancing.
-I did this for fun, but constructive critism helps. If we can conjure ideas together, it would help more than agreeing/disagreeing with this post. Cooperate to get things done!
