+At some point in this century (roughly 300 years before [[1601]]), a seemingly bottomless black pit was discovered in [[Kokorin Forest]]. Locals came to believe the hole to be [[The Mouth of Hell]], after "strange lights" and "ungodly sounds" were said to have emerged from within. In order to quell the mounting hysteria, King [[Ottokor II]] had a [[Convict (Herald of Madness)|convict]] lowered into the pit and tell of what he found there, in exchange for [[clemency]]. After hearing the convicts screams, "like none any man had ever heard", the King pulled him back up to find he had aged thirty years and his mind destroyed, speaking of "madness made flesh" and "creatures that ate the souls of gods", before dying. The King chose not to investigate any further, and had what would become [[Castle Houska]] built on top of it. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Herald of Madness (comic story)|Herald of Madness]]'')
