Phase 3: Building Bridges World Event Merchants Completed Phases Phase 1: The Song of Karine Phase 2: A Strange Alliance

Before the Ward fell and the Blood Storm's power seeped into the world a great network of instantaneous travel connected all the people of Telara. The Porticulums are based on this mysterious magic but its secrets were lost in the great war.

Akylios, the mad lord of the deep, sought to sow chaos by burying the ancient Travel Stones — their location's lost to his lunacy. Now his power is failing, and as his grip on the world slips into the abyss these ancient stones have begun to stir back to life — what mysteries do they hold?

Your search will take you to the ends of the earth, heroes — steel yourselves, for you are not alone in your quest. The Golden Maw and The Wanton, the cults of Laethys & Maelforge, seek to use these stones for themselves and bring forth a new reign of fire and chaos! ^[1]

Each phase has both story and daily quests.

Phase 3: Building Bridges

The Ascended must work to build their own (safe) Travel Gate to reach Ember Isle before The Golden Maw and The Wanton can execute their evil plan!
