Lastar to Yagrik v2

My Dear Yagrik,

I thank you for your help with this difficult task and I am truly impressed with what you have achieved in such a short time. I realise that I may have put you in a difficult position at last year’s meeting in Sutur, but it is important that our agreements remain confidential – not all agree with my approach or share our interest in the work of the Ancient Ones. Please accept the gift of this orb and what it offers as some small measure of recompense,

I am particularly grateful for your recent news but must confess to being somewhat confused as to why the Ancients have failed to reveal their intent before now. I hope it is merely because I have paid too much attention to Everinstar to notice what might exist in other parts of the Prime – especially in lonely mountain ranges deep in the heart of Amorsland.

This great crack in the mountain to the north of your continent know to the locals as Akhet is of particular interest. The fissure they call ‘Mordrass’ in a tongue which matches that of the Ancients quite closely – meaning ‘the way of the dead’ in common – is obviously something we should examine. If, as you say, the fissure was partially hidden by two great, tapering monoliths in front of which are placed three great obelisks, which seen to ‘hold up the sky’, we could discover something very special – I am clearly intrigued.

I would be very grateful if you would investigate Akhet further, to decide whether it is (as I sense) a Pylon, resembling that reserved for Osiris himself, and whether you and your folk would take up residence there. I can think of no better people to keep the path to Duat. I wonder too if it is similar to that which we discovered in Zundar… Of course, your assistance in this matter would be well rewarded.

On a similar note, I wonder if you and your close friends, Yarl’s Folk, would like to investigate further the information you provided concerning the Astral Intersections in the South of Amorsland? I know Yarl is keen to expand his realm and has oft spoke of seats for his numerous offspring, including here in Everinstar. He will not take much persuading, I’m certain.

I was fascinated by Yarl’s conversation with King Maedus about a new religion, born out of the East. A mythos based on a Pantheon of Gods that dwell atop a mountain and thrive on the worship of mortals. It seems to be growing in popularity amongst the second and third born. I see many parallels here and would wish to treat its emergence as a chance to extend the powers of good on the Prime, rather than a threat. What do you think, my friend?
