*Enters the Valstiir library and wanders around admiring the enormous aquarium for a moment before continuing to having a casual look around picking up a book here and there reading for a few hours before approaching Master Librarian Albert Pendragon*
Master Pendragon,
I was told this library was the finest in the lands and that it is the place to come if one seeks information. My name is Retzlaff, im just a travelling merchant but I do have a fascination with history in the lands I travel in.
*places a bag of 1000 gold coins on the counter in front of him* Consider this a donation to such a fine vault of history. As a merchant I understand the value of time but If I could have a few moments of yours it would be much appreciated.
I've heard much of the story about the conflict of two archmages, in fact I have read the book that is here in the library several times; quite thrilling a thrilling read, good verse evil, ancient creatures verse heroes of the land.
Was Archmage Valstiir the current Lady in rule or was it perhaps her mother? Does the title Archmage of Valstiir get passed down through a royal blood line? I was having issues finding how long ago such an extravagant battle took place. Rumours say that the current Lady Valstiir is over 200 years old!
*chuckles slightly before waving a dismissive hand* Of course you would never catch me asking her such a question even if such a chance arose, every gentleman knows to never ask a lady's age unless you wish her wrath.
The book also stated that this archmage Roz'dha used necromancy, such a vile magic, and that he even achieved lichdom! Is it safe to assume there was once two enclaves here? and since the fall of his enclave to the ground, was it ever proven with evidence that this evil lich was obliterated by the sun-rays?
Also what is this Mythallar place the book talked about? The details on it were very vague and mysterious.
