¶ Narak
A city founded in the heart of the Naraki desert, its people are fiercely independent from other nations. Narak has weathered many hardships to become the strong people that it now is, home to a thousand wonders and a thousand hidden dangers. Many come from all places across the realm to sample this mysterious city's delights.
Endurus, a gnomen geomancer, recently returned from the far west. While looking for his father, an adventurer who disappeared over two hundred years ago, Endurus was trapped in a landslide. Once he freed himself, he soon discovered a path which led through a twisting canyon into a vast desert. Excited that he had finally found the Desert of the Four Sands, Endurus, like his father before him, struck out on a mission of exploration, leaving his magical studies behind for a time.
Sadly, when Endurus returned from the desert, he returned with little additional knowledge about his father's disappearance. However, Endurus did discover that what his father called the 'Desert of the Four Sands' was truly the Naraki Desert. Apparently a minor earthquake had sealed it off from the rest of the main continent.
Endurus also learned why his father's journals spoke of the Naraki as having four sands. For indeed, within the Naraki Desert, a barren land caught within a series of twisted canyons, Endurus found that the desert soils were of four different colors.
Each, Endurus discovered, had its own secrets and mysteries that need be unearthed. But the most spectacular thing about his visit, he has been heard to remark, was the giant stone structure situated in the middle of the desert. Though he could find no way into the structure, Endurus has vowed one day to return. Perhaps, within it, lie clues to his father's whereabouts.
