Those droag not killed were turned into horrible creations, persisting even past death to learn from their new masters. - Welcome to the Lyceum of Abhorrence, a new raid zone available in the Kingdom of Sky. - Brave adventurers fluent in Draconic should seek out Zhaviz Ne`pasda in Tenebrous Tangle for more information on this zone. *** Rise in Orc Activity *** - As discovered by Captain Arellius of the Freeport Militia, the Brokentusk and Lonetusk orcs in the Ruins recently acquired new weapons and armor from the Rujarkian tribe based in the Desert of Ro. The captain`s report raised concerns that other orc tribes may form similar supply treaties. - It appears the worst fears of the Militia have been realized. Field officers are reporting that other tribes of orcs are now utilizing Rujarkian armaments in battle. - Scouts have confirmed that this includes Bloodskull orcs in the Commonlands; Ree orcs in the Wailing Caves; and the Vallon, Tallon, and Deathfist tribes in the Orcish Wastes and Deathfist Citadel. It is unknown at this time if any additional tribes have followed suit. - This orc aggression must not be allowed to go unchecked. Adventurers are encouraged to take up arms against these savage beasts. Any sort of alliance formed by these previously disparate factions represents a significant danger to all of Norrath. *** Dungeon Exploration *** Wailing Caves: - The Wailing Caves poses new challenges and dangers. - New, great treasures await those willing to risk almost certain peril. - In an experiment gone wrong, Kyllik the Fated touched off a massive explosion that rocked the caves.
