The Maps of Myrist
Adventurers who have braved and survived through the ruins of Ka Vethan report a large variety of strange creatures dwelling within the confines of the ruined city. Most notable of these creatures are the centi – beings of tangible shadow and life. These creatures, constructed out of the physical forms of Tegi prisoners and the enchanted blood of the Akheva priests, obey the every command given to them by their masters.
Shaded Stones, golems of solidified shadow and primal earth, serve their Akheva creators mindlessly. Behemoths of brute strength and unnatural speed, the Shaded Stones make deadly adversaries for even the most seasoned of warriors or cunning of rogues. However, strangest of the Akheva's servants are the Mind Burrowers – fierce creatures of mass intellect and a wily malevolence notorious for their ability to drain the spiritual and arcane essence of mana from their victims.
Beside the tortured constructs of the Tegi and other strange, dark beings to inhabit the ruins are the Akheva outcasts. Despite their conflict and differences with the greater Akhevian empire ruled by Atenha`Ra, the Akheva retain their absolute loyalty to Luclin and the ultimate cause of their existence – to abolish all intruders from the face of their divine maiden's world. Any and all outsiders are greeted with hostility, and countless adventurers or unfortunate wanderers have found their end at the arms of these deadly guardians of Luclin.
As the Akheva Ruins are the remains of a formerly great city destroyed in the pinnacle of war, many different weapons have been recovered by adventurers from the clutches of the ruins' inhabitants. Since many of the Centi weapons are common, it makes hunting here for treasure an easy task.
