Death, death knights, Deathshold, and wiccan.-From the library of the White Mages.

One of the most mysterious figures in Eilendor, is Death.  People who can see quintessence said they have seen Death on his black horse, wielding a sharp, scythe, some people say the scythe's blade is as cold as a frozen arctic mountain stream.  It is said Death is also called the 

Warlock-King, and lives on an island no one can find, called Deathshold.  The island holds Death's castle, a graveyard to the south, the Forest of Decay to the east, the Great Mausoleum, the Black Forest, and Witches' Hollow to the west, The Ebony Temple to the north, and Mt. Witchgard in the center of the island.  Deathshold is home to an underground society of undead, the majority of witches and warlocks, and the powerful order of Death Knights, the personal knight-army of Death.  Death knights are few, but have a limited spellcasting ability, have a command over undead, and dress in dark gray armor and black cloaks.  The death knights go all over the world, doing tasks for the Warlock-King, they are often seen in the Gray Plateau, keeping the pact between the High Liches and Death.  Death knights are hand picked by Death from the best warriors of all races, except nature folk, Trolls, Ellsidur, and Dragons, and are, after excepting, knighted, and are imbued with magic, then are given a crest, herald, and steed.  Witches and warlocks used to be Men and Elves, but when the Elder Ones bound magic, the wiccans refused to conform to the Laws of Magic, that, and their proximity to Death and Mt. Witchgard, has changed witches and warlocks almost into a new race.  The child of two wiccan, is depending on gender, a witch or warlock, though witches and warlocks sometimes marry into Men and have Half- Witches.  The undead society of Deathshold is smaller than it's Gray Plateau cousin, and exists on the side of Mt. Witchgard and around the Bay of Death and the Bay of Decay.  The main use of the civilization is to man the boats that transport the death knights, to take care of Death's Citadel, the Ebony Temple, and the Great Mausoleum, and many serve in Witches' Hollow and in the graveyard.  No-witch eve, Death's eve, and Midsummer are the only holidays on Deathshold, when all the wiccan stay inside, and on Eilendor, leave out candy.  On this day, all the inhabitants, even Death, of the island go to the Ebony Temple, and many wiccan from Eilendor goto Deathshold, which is strange because you can only find the island when the Warlock-King has invited you.
