Spiritual Oddities

[Valterak]

---

Those attuned to the Spirit Realm and its denizens may notice a peculiar shift in behavior of the elementals within the lands of Aphros; not a disruption or a sign of distress, but a discernible change in their movements and concentrations. It's almost as if they were attracted to a single point, drawn in by a conflux of ethereal energy, metaphysical focus placed solely upon the central keep within The City of Duality, attracting a great deal of the local elementals to this location.

There's the occasional discussion regarding the reason behind it in minor Spiritual circles, but the most popular theory suggests that a Greater Spirit has taken root there, a higher entity that acts as a natural draw to the lesser beings of the Spirit Realm. Rumors abound upon the identity of this supposed Spirit and what this will mean for the local culture of elementals, but nothing concrete has been agreed upon as of yet.

However, to those within the city and knowledgeable of its recent changes, they'd be able to make a more educated guess behind the spiritual shifts. There was an anomalous presence within the city, an itch upon the skull, a patch of empty air that fogs the mind, a paradoxical not-entity forever beyond the edge of one's perception.

And it's name is Talguth.

There's a clear shift that's happened within Talguth's realm prior to it's rise as a Greater Spirit.

A new extension of this realm of Unreality had been created, a nigh-unbearable feeling of heat flowing from the new lands of magma and sand.

Fire magi everywhere would feel a simultaneously feeling of heat enter their minds, offering flashes of what this area looked like--
drawing them in.

It was only for a split second, but that calling would remain. A promise of power, or perhaps more, should they come to hone themselves and their connection to the flames...

For the Patron of Fire has reawakened.

But will they take the journey?
Can they withstand the flames?
