There was an anecdote by [[Andraax]] of the Battle of Maegris in 6825 [[Second Era]] where heralds were leading an army of tens of thousands of demons, following an [[Ordainer]], all of whom were serving the [[avatar]] of Scalu who was suddenly and unexpectedly stopped by Cay ([[Kai]]).

	Heralds were said to ride black unicorns, but those of Scalu in GemStone III used [[nightmare steed]]s. Their minds were completely dominated and controlled by their swords, which were designed to mockingly represent a similar sword held by Valris ([[Lumnis]]). This is the original premise for why they have some mental immunities. Ordinary harbingers wear augmented breastplate and carry broadswords. Rare ones wear full plate and wield claidhmores.

			Inside the Chapel and Summoning Chamber rooms of the Sheruvian Monastery, there will sometimes be a message where a creature catches you where you do not belong. The creature calls for guards which causes uncommon creature variants to show up, such as the [[Sheruvian warlock]] and a few harbingers. However, these Sheruvian harbingers wear black steel full plate, and carry black steel claidhmores. These items are cursed.
			<pre{{log2\|margin-right=350px}}>
			Summoning Chamber:
			The haon doors open slowly, and a Sheruvian warlock enters. He glances up at you in shock before bellowing, "GUARDS! The workshop is being invaded! Attend me at once and slay the defilers!" The sound of booted feet rushing down the corridor precedes the entrance of several armed guards.

			Chapel:
			A lone monk slowly opens the door and quickly enters the chapel carrying a small wooden box. As he brings his gaze up and sees you, he gasps in shock. The monk bellows for the guards as he draws his tiger-claw. The heavy tread of booted feet thunders down the corridor outside and several guards burst into the room!
