Description:

This is the letter you've received from an unknown man:

"Garrett,

I don't like to do it, but circumstances made me to press you into service for
me. Thanks to my informants, I know a lot about your 'activity' in our town and
I have enough information to put you in jail for several years. However if you
carry out what I'm going to ask you to do, I will burn all the proofs and
forget about the whole matter.

Several years ago, an evildoer named Virate has settled into the mansion behind
the town. He used to be a Hammerite priest in the past, but later he got mixed
up with the forces of darkness and was excommunicated from the order. Rumour has
it that it's him to whom the army of the undead terrorizing the surrounding
belongs. In the last weeks more and more undead could be seen and moreover
people started to disappear under strange circumstances. In addition, I've
received a message recently, that the Book of Forbiden Magic was stolen from
secret Hammer library. There's no doubt that it was Virate who did it and I dare
not think about all the evil he could commit with it.

Therefore I ask you to do what's inevitable: find Virate and kill him. Also find
the stolen Book of Forbiden Magic. It must be hidden again and protected against
villains like Virate. As a reward, you can take all valuables that you find in
his mansion."
