The Great Library of Palanthas

Astinus' Office

Dominating the center of this room is a massive birch desk. Legend claims this desk has supported the thousands of volumes of history Astinus has recorded. A large pot of ink, a container of sharpened quills, and a candelabra complete the desks decorations. Small windows line the room, allowing light to trickle in and gently illuminate the entire room. A comfortable couch rests against the west wall. Tapestries hang on the walls between the windows. Shelves line the walls, filled with tomes of the more recent records of heroes and villians upon the face of Krynn.

The librarian notices you aren't reading anything... Astinus hands a miniscule pocket book to an Aesthetic standing by you. You note the spine bears the word 'Mathias' scribed in burnt grey ink. As you glance down at the page you read..

From the pages of Mathias's book..


Author: Mathias Date: Fri Jul 10 22:51:02 2009 Subject Neraka and the Highlord The journey to Neraka was quite a trek, but finally Mathias set his eyes upon the gates of Neraka. Wandering down Snake Road, Mathias makes his way towards the center of Neraka, and the Temple of Lady Chaos. As the temple rises up from the city before him, he sees what appears to be a man in front of him, wearing what appears to be a helm fashioned to look as a dragon. The person standing before him spoke with Mathias, welcoming him to Neraka, and letting him know that somehow, they were aware of his arrival. Warming to this person, eminating a dark aura of power, Mathias told him of the journey he had taken, and his desire to serve the Lady Chaos. Finally, Mathias realizes this person must be the one in control of the great fighting force being assembled in the city. "I want to request the honor of serving Lady Chaos in this battle, this conquest." The Highlord leads Mathias into along a street, and into the halls of the army, showing Mathias the different wings of the army, and instructing him to get outfitted from the smith. Once the Highlord had issued his instructions, Mathias bowed to his Highlord, and left on his assignment. His path took him directly to the blacksmith, to get his armor replaced, with the armor a servant of the Lady Chaos should wear, the armor of the Green wing of the Dragonarmy.
