Krafft explains his predicament.
Transcript:
Krafft: Krafft here. As you well know, this area is swarming with revenants. I just want to reassure you that I myself am quite safe for the moment.
Krafft: Since the day the artifacts awoke, Von List kept me by his side. After all, I’m as close as there is to an expert on the entity dwelling within him.
Krafft: When we arrived here in Stalingrad it took the locals by surprise. The last thing they expected was the Nazis to return.
Krafft: But Von List had been here when the Germans surrendered. He wants to turn the site of their greatest loss into the source of Nazi victory.
Krafft: To do this, he will raise an army of revenants from the millions who perished on the Eastern Front. But to accomplish such a feat, Kortifex must first build up his strength.
Krafft: Von List locked me in this room with my books and a radio. I watched from my window as he called upon Kortifex to seal off this part of the city. And I knew I had to act.
Krafft: Once I radioed for help, I used what I learned from the Tome of Rituals. The rune magic in its pages sealed this room.
Krafft: Of course, I have no idea how to undo the spell. But, for now, neither Von List nor his revenants can touch me here.
Krafft: And now that you have responded to my cry for help, we must work together. We must stall their progress and gather information on Die Wahrheit’s activities.
Krafft: I will continue to advise you while I formulate a plan to stop them once and for all. Until then, keep fighting, my champions. We must strengthen your demons if we have any hope of winning.
