Description
The runeblade of a Necrolord can be a potent weapon in this realm. An abundance of souls are willing to contribute their anima to end their own suffering and bring defeat to the Jailer. Take one of my runeblades and charge it with the anima of the willing souls you find here. Once charged, use it lay waste to their forces here.
