There were plenty who returned from a bloodbowl season broken in body or spirit. But Mark Harrigan had witnessed horrors he could not explain. His beloved Sophie believed him when he wrote her about the things he saw - not the players killing other players, but the other things. The skulls. When he came home and went to visit her, he found the reasons she believed him: she was constantly rolling skulls, causing turnovers all over the place. As he watched in helpless horror, she rolled triple skulls against a snotling and suffered a casualty, dying horribly. Now everyone thinks Mark Harrigan is crazy. Maybe he's finally lost it, after all. But he knows skulls are real, and he will not rest until he wins the spice cup.
