  • How did you get here?

    I was out for an evening stroll amongst the ganura thinking of various new enchantments and wonders, when, much to my dismay, I could no longer move.

    I knew immediately I had been stunned by a powerful force of mana.

    After I saw a group of gastly figures coming over the ridge ... that's the last thing I remember before waking up here.

    Returns to the previous choices

  • Tell me more about Ishgana.

    Don't make me describe it to you stranger ... not here, not like this.
