'''Unofficial Summary:''' King Alendria and Queen {{5ed|Zanobis}} ruled at the peak of {{5ed|Cynidicea}}'s glory. After their deaths, the people of Cynidicia built a step pyramid. Under this pyramid was discovered an obelisk with a black horn stuck in it. When the horn was removed, it released an {{5ed|Elder Evil}}, {{5ed|Zargon}}.

If her sarcophagus is opened, Queen Zanobis escapes it. She is now a wight. The queen-as-wight is filled with rage that her tomb has been looted.
