Tantalizing Clues To The Quenaris Mystery
The afternoon sun sent great shafts of golden light beaming down through the windows of the library in Halo Haven illuminating the table where Vespera and Orion were at work.
Vespera had a large map of Santae unfurled across the bulk of the table, weighed down at each corner by books. With one hand, she placed small markers to indicate various locations across the map. The other hand held the stack of pages she was reading: a new report from Silvershade.
The Adventurers had taken to herding the dragon influx with skill and enthusiasm. Silvershade already had lots of information to share about where the dragons were found and where the Adventurers tamed them. They sent the compiled notes up to Vespera, who was hoping to use them to see the bigger picture about the dragons' movements.
"It's hard to say so far," Vespera said to Scholar Orion after marking each spot, "but it seems like the dragon flock is moving. It looks a little denser over here." She indicated one portion of the map with many clustered markers.
"Hmm," Orion replied, distracted with his nose in a book. "One moment please..."
Scholar Orion had a copy of the runes and symbols from the stone slab at Ascendants Shrine in front of him, and he was comparing them to something written in an ancient tome.
"Did you find something?" Vespera asked, getting up from her seat to read over Orion's shoulder.
"I think... I think I might have," Orion replied, eyes still scanning the pages. "Look, this symbol in this illustration..."
"... It looks just like the one at the Shrine!" Vespera exclaimed.
Vespera grinned widely at Orion. "We're nearly there. The Adventurers are taming even more dragons as we speak, and with a little more data I'm sure I can learn where they are moving." Vespera gestured at her map. "And with your book...do you think we could read what the symbols at Ascendants Shrine say?"
Scholar Orion didn't grin back, but his wise old face did soften into a smile. "Yes, Vespera," he agreed. "I believe we can."

Check Out Our Newest Game: Checkers!
If you feel like kicking back and relaxing after a day of adventuring, why not play a game? We have a brand new activity for you to try: Checkers has been added to the Games List!
In our newest interactive game, outwit your opponent as you traverse the grid with your game pieces. Each piece can only move diagonally, staying on the same color square as it started on. However, if the square you want to move your piece to is occupied by an enemy's piece, you can "jump" it with your piece to capture it.
If one of your pieces makes it all the way to the far end of the board, it becomes a "king" capable of moving and jumping both forward and backward. Choose your pieces' paths wisely to capture all of your opponents' pieces and win the day!
Claiming victory in Checkers comes with exciting opportunities to earn rewards. Go try your luck and test your skill today, and you may win sanPoints and sanDust in exchange!
