FOR PLAYERS ON NATURES BOUNTY 2:
You dream a waking dream of the lands of NOD-GORIN. You saw the long pouring headland and smoking coast with the sea high on the rocks. Gulls cried and wheeled flung away from the sea. Dark wooded hills swarming with mists as far as your vision allowed you to see. Mist hung over the sea and you’re dreaming turned into the lands heart. The wooded hills give way to the magnificent spire cap of a volcano. The long dormant mountain now sparked back into life by the geographic changes wrought into the rising lands. Called once more by the ancient dreamer, he spoke to you in the dreamscape of his ancient territory. The time has come to gain the Heart stone, the fire gates key. Your dream showed you the gate that you know of in the wilds, you know you must travel to it again to continue this quest. The dreamer speaking in a voice quiet like a whisper, talked of urgency in this task and a sense of something disturbing on the periphery of his sight. What malign thing could be walking the Fire tribe’s grounds? What type of being could gain the attention of the ancient?
The dreamer’s presence fades away, the dream retreating into the subconscious. A surge took your mind back swiftly to dreaming, another presence swift and swirling into the dreamscape. A sharp scent like that of a burning pyre, and a face, swathed in a hood, came into your mindscape. It spoke to you asking but a single question “do you know what you serve?” With that it vanished back to smoke.
You awakened, feverish with a fire in your heart and the question within your mind. Do you know what you serve? The journey is a long one to the gate, with trepidation you set out for the gate to NOD-GORIN.
FOR NEW PLAYERS:
Your allies have brought you along to a task set by an ancient to rescue his long lost sister. They have trusted you to the task, over which they seem to be very secretive and not talking about much. All they keep saying is things like you will see when you get there. Well now all this mystery will come to an end and you can find out for yourself just why they have been so close mouthed. The gate before you is ancient, what secrets are beyond it, you will soon find out.
