30-second TL;DR
Adventure Guide says
- Stages named in the Adventure Guide: The Mail Must Flow.
Background
Adventure Guide says
Malown didn't become the Postmaster by not caring about the mail. Even in his current state he is dedicated to maintaining the stability of the postal system. Should that system be disrupted to the point of threatening instability, Malown might just have to take matters into his own hands.
Encounter phases
Adventure Guide says
- The Mail Must Flow Postmaster Malown sends Undead Postmen after any who disturb a postbox. After three disturbances, the Postmaster himself arrives to address the issue.
