Faded Scraps of Parchment

I have managed to construct the blade.

Unfortunately I found that the blade is only the

first step. For now the sword is quite useless to

me, as I do not have the necessary components

to create the focus gem for the hilt. For now I

leave it in the care of Vhalen. It’s possible I

won’t survive my journey. If I don’t then

perhaps another troubadour will take up the task I

have failed. I can only hope that the records of

my journey survive to help lead those who follow

me. For now I struggle to find the method to

imbue the blade with the true draconic spirit. So

now I travel through the maws of dragons, May

Veeshan guide my footsteps

The annals of skyshrine have proven most

useful. Most people know of the 4 basic

elemental dragons, fire, water, earth, air. What

most people don’t know is that some dragons

embody the characteristics of the natural world

as well asthe higher elements. I have found

record of mountains dragons, plains dragons,

swamp dragons, and forest dragons of Norrath.

These dragons seem to tend to solitary life in the

environment they favor. These draggons often

take the form of a more mundane creature

native to their habitat, which accounts for their

perceived rarity. Perhaps that’s what I need

to create the focus crystal.
