Description and lore
An undead pursuer follows a particular grievance with relentless attention. Its damaged body matters less to it than the person or wrong it seeks.
A carried token survives beside the ruined body. The pursuer turns toward its quarry with an attention that ignores everything else.
The grievance has become a route retraced beyond death. Every arrival asks for an answer somebody has still not given.
