| Where to find the Old Book : Complimentary Prize at the Lottery in Vinay del Zexay. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Long ago, there lived the elusive Cyndar Clan, whose ruins lie across our land. In the search for the unknown Cyndar legacy, scholars and hunters have found only death. May one of those brave souls find peace in knowning that their findings survive herein to spread their rare insights. |
My Search for Cyndar Far have I come to seek the truth of Cyndar, yet little have I found. I record my work herein now, for my strength falters more each day. The ethereal Cyndar legacy casts a shadow before us, and none can claim to know anything of their true nature. |
| Cyndar went from the north to the south, leaving ruins behind in all corners of our land. Their leader perhaps kept death at bay with a rune above the brow, but the same magic may also have forced Cyndar to remain nomadic. Beyond the many traps set within the Cyndar ruins may rest great wealth and knowledge. | Few have sought to break through to the inner ruins, for the darkness of death is said to sweep away those who try. I myself now suffer this misfortune... |
