Grand Prince Stavian III was alleged killed in the Exalatation Gala Massacre that he orchestrated, but the party discovered that he had actually survived. He has been locked up in Abadar’s Pillar under Pythareus’ care. His madness has grown worse, his moments of lucidity few and far between, not at all helped by his caretaker, Earl Konstantin Diakos, who used his ability to cast detect thoughts to pry into the monarch’s mind. He also drugged him with striped toadstool poison, which further damaged his mind.
