hi everyone,  good luck and have fun in Olympia

    Greetings Lords, from the Eight Mages,

    this is a small Order seeking for arcane knowledge in Olympia.
    We honor knowledge as it is our goal as it is our mean, and we
    do not have great interest in other mundane matters.
    Now we start our quest to discover old and lost skills.

    If you need something from us, you'll find us in the city of Vikos.

    Min,
    First Mage of the Circle of the Eight

                               -- The Eight Mages [pp9]

Captain Jaloy, you are directed to proceed with all due speed on board
the ship SYS Aparctias. Take on board water, provisions, and stores of
every kind and prepare her in every respect for the sea.
Man the ship and bring her to life.

                                        -- Jaroh [3308]

From the deepest caverns, from the very abyss itself
an eerie darkness has arisen, inaudible to any ear,
sleek and slender, yet more deadly then any elf,
all beware for ... the drow are here !
