Welcome to our second covenant campaign recap!
Gather around as one of the Attendants of Oribos retells the adventures of the Night Fae aligned Maw Walkers and the battles they fought!
Now for those of you who've done this campaign or know the lore, you're probably wondering: Where's the Bwonsamdi part?!
We didn't forget Bwonsamdi. We cut his story entirely.
Let me explain!
Our goal with these recaps is to cover the large story beats relevant to both the original zone, but also whats coming in 9.1. Night Fae campaign was literally a roller coaster, constantly turning to different plot points and characters; it was a hell of a script to write.
We decided that Bwonsamdi's role, while full of great lore and iconic characters, was not super relevant to the overall plot of Ardenweald or the 9.1 stuff. But I promise: His Shadowlands story, including all of the Night Fae Loa content, will get it's own short animation! We won't leave the Troll fans hanging!

Special thanks to these awesome people:
Laytis and Shandryn for their script and writing assistance. Without them, this project never would've left the ground level.

![Who is: Edwin Vancleef? From Stonemason Hero to Defias Kingpin | Lost Codex Legends
Welcome back to Lost Codex Legends!
Today, Jesse demonstrates YET again his clear bias for Rogue characters(kidding) as he dives into the story of Edwin Vancleef!
From his youngest days as a Stormwind roofwalker, Edwin VanCleef was determined and hard working. After rising to lead the Stonemasons and helping with the rebuilding Stormwind, VanCleef found himself faced with enemies on all sides as dark forces sought to deny him and his workers his hard earned pay. Following these events, Edwin would lead his Stonemasons into exile as he formed an organization hell bent on seeking revenge against the aristocrats of Stormwind- an organization that would plague the Kingdom for decades to come: the Defias Brotherhood.
