The ruined temple of Nelemar was released this weekend, housing a host
of ten new creatures, spanning in level from 92 to 105. Sirens, water
elementals, and various tritons creep the halls of the once guardian
temple of the Fier'Dracus. Two of the creatures, the spectral triton
defenders and ethereal triton sentries, are undead.

The way to the temple can be found down the incline on the south end
of the Fhorian Village outside of Kharam-Dzu. A significant number of
Swimming ranks is highly recommended to maneuver to and around the
area. The creatures themselves have many new unique and varied
abilities, so caution is advised.

The efforts of many GameMasters went into the preparation and release
of the area, and I would like to thank them all. First off, Warden for
the concept and review of the creatures. Secondly, Hadlir and Aiza for
the creation of the area itself, as well as Strathspey for the coding
behind the sirens and water elementals. I'd also like to thank Gyres,
Voraviel, Liia, and Varulv for their parts in the release event.
Finally, Croe for her announcements keeping everyone informed of the
event.

-M.

Erakaya and Sarise, two scholars working to discern the fate the
Fier'Dracus from its guardians, have traced the shards of the gem to a
temple submerged off the shores of the Fhorian Village.

The two startled scholars, in the company of Mavalgnus and others,
drew the notice of Nelemar, greatest of all known water elementals,
with their summoning ritual.

Rising from a whirlpool, Nelemar deigned to speak to those assembled
upon the beach, telling them the tale of the temple which once
harbored the Fier'Dracus.

Nelemar says that the gem has been found, only to be lost again,
throughout history. In days past there was a band of people, dedicated
to Nelemar who built him a great temple near the sea on Teras Island.
These people kept the Fier'Dracus, in their place of worship, guarding
it from the fire elementals.

Drawn by its latent power, the elementals searched for the gem,
discovering its place of concealment. Fiercely angry, the fire
elementals overwhelmed the temple's inhabitants, consuming all they
could in a massive inferno.

Nelemar took his now ravaged house of worship and sunk it beneath the
seas where it became a favorite haunt of lesser water elementals.
Nelemar indicated that he had no objection to Terasian land dwellers
exploring his temple, but cautioned that the environment, and the
lesser elementals dwelling within, might prove less than hospitable.

Adventurers of even the greatest skill are cautioned to proceed with care.

An unconfirmed report states the scholar Mavalgnus and his band of
researchers recently summoned a massive, blazing fire elemental,
seeking information on the fate of the remaining pieces of the
Fier'Dracus.

The elemental, under threat of eternal confinement, whispered to
Mavalgnus and his band, that the Flame that Never Dies had been
reclaimed by the elemental beings and fiery vengeance taken upon those
who had held it, burning their halls.

Encouraged by this new information the scholars have returned to their
tomes, seeking the location of the conflagration.

Researchers in the libraries of Tamzyr have found a link between the
Fier'Dracus and a temple believed to have stood on Teras Island.

The Fier'Dracus, a gem of mysterious origin and ability, was
supposedly destroyed. According to legend, loresingers handling shards
of the gem have heard a voice declare, "I am the Fier'dracus, The
Flame That Never Dies. Shattered I am for now, child of flesh, but
dread the day when I am whole again, for you will burn for what you
know."

Residents of Kharam Dzu have mixed opinions about the search for the
Fier'Dracus. Local miners have warned against excavating the side of
the already active volcanic slopes. Barkeepers have hailed the new
arrivals, noting that research seems to be thirsty work and scholars
are good tippers. Local mothers expressed concern that the Fier'Dracus
might prove dangerous. They also declared that scholarship and
research are not suitable activities for a family oriented community.
"There is no telling what kind of questions children might ask once
they are exposed to ideas," exclaimed one anxious mother.
