"Records in the Imperial Archives indicated that Isran, a former Vigilant of Stendarr, was found slaughtered, along with all of his Dawnguard soldiers, on the day the sun darkened in the sky. All of them had been completely desiccated, and each a look of horror on their face. Those men did not die easily." --excerpt from official report delivered to the ruling council after the assassination of the Emperor at the hands of the Dark Brotherhood, linking it to the vampire menace.
