VARIOUS LOCATIONS - July 19, 1999 - Azazel
The following was written by yours truly for
UO Chesapeake. Yesterday Seer Kristos visited the Black Rose Brewery in
Corwyn. It seemed he was there to talk of the quest for his past. He did a
good job of summoning up what's happened so far, and many clues on where to
go next were provided. [Bolding not copied from original UOSS article. See
the original article for the bolded "clues".]
Seer Kristos tells the tale of his quest, "I fear my mood is dark,
for Dragar has 4 of the 6 pieces of the armor. If he acquires all the
pieces, I fear there will be no stopping him.
In my foolish search for my past, we followed the map to a building on
the Isle of Fire. There we spoke to an ankh and gather three seals to open a
gateway to a vault. When the gate was opened a man step out of it; Dragar.
He knew me and swore vengance and, I remembered him as well. Ages ago, it
almost seems like a dream, he and his dragons swarmed the land. I and many
others battled him at that place. I do not know what happened but we were
not victorious; then all goes black.
We must stop him! He had gone to that place in search of the armor of
ice. He had 2 pieces when he was freed, now he has two more. I believe many
are helping him find the pieces.
There is a druid in Yew, I saw a vampire speaking to it of one called
Treldan. Then a few days later, Dragar and his dragons raided the graveyard
in Yew. A ghost opposed them, the ghost was named Treldan.
There is a book in the Lycaeum that speaks of one who knew much of
Dragar. Unfortunately it seems he died in that battle ages ago, but his
bones still lie in the vault, on the Isle of Fire, and speak of the battle,
when Arandal's name is spoken. Arandal was from the city of Wind, and one
named Seifer searched that city, and found Arandal's Diary. The original is
till in Wind, in a house just south of the healers, but there is a copy in
the PaxLair library.
The diary speaks of many things. In particular it seems that Seifer was
able to use the knowledge in it. It says that Dragar often fled to the
southern part of the mountains of Destard. Seifer has found a cave that
leads to his lair there. It seems that Arandal talked to wisps of Dragar.
They warned that it was vital that he not obtain all of the armor, and when
he asked of Dragar's lair. The wisps would only respond with the word:
Wintersoul.
Seifer has told me that the information in the Dairy led him to Dragars
lair, but the Dragon Skorr killed him for going there. Seifer told me the
way is blocked by sealed doors. If we are to stop Dragar it seems we must
try to enter or try to find the rest of the armor before him. Since the
wisps aided Arandal all those years ago, perhaps they might aid us now. If
any know how to stop Dragar it would be the wisp. There is more I have
learned that the arms to the armor of ice were last said to have been seen
many many years ago, in the possession of an orc mage named NaGrot. If we
can find what happened to the mage before Dragar does, we might beat him to
the arms. I feel certain that the knowledge we need to stop him is there to
be had, if only we might find it.
Dragar and 5 or more Dragons have laid waste to all who oppose them in
their search for the armor. He must be stopped! The one named Auldrek fought
Dragar when he claimed the gorget in Yew. He was heard to say Dragar could
have slain 10 such as them easily. Do not underestimate him. There have been
many battles when Dragar was freed he called an army of Dragons to slay all
who were there.
That is the story as I know it to this point the end has yet to be
decided."
Seer Kristos would only go to the trouble of explaining all this if there
was something afoot. I'd try to find any clues, and take note of the words
and phrases in bold. I hope you all can come up with something, Seer Kristos
needs our help!
