Ah, Player, there you are.

You've come to a region undergoing a sustained and severe period of change. Eltnen was once a prosperous, radiant place, a true rival to the Cantas Coast. Now though, its woodlands are dying.

I've been sent here because I'm one of the oldest Daevas, a general since before the Cataclysm. Don't let my youthful appearance fool you. I get the job done!
Your readiness will be judged by your friends and your foes, Player, not by you.

Our overall goal here is simple: to stop the desertification of Eltnen and restore the region's previous condition. This will be achieved through plenty of hard work, and as a [%userclass] you'll be required to face down and overcome a number of challenges.

There are several tasks I have already assigned to you, which I suggest you start on immediately. Others may be made ready once you have shown that you can handle yourself. Faith and arms!
