The Draft Marauders
On the Gulitaro island, there is a great desert which constitute most of the center of the lands. The island settlers mostly live near the coasts and live from the ressources that the sea and the beaches give them.
But some of the more adventurous settlers once advanced in the desert and decided to search for ressources there. They found a lot of different metals and some precious stones. But most, they found a fountain of a strange silver liquid.
Selling the Draft
The settlers tested the produce and found that it was a very useful one with a lot of healing properties and they decided to settle there. For a century now they have been mining the strange silver liquid, that they called The Draft, and selling it to the Archipelago. Once a month, a group of four Marauders come to the shore to sell it to the market and goes back into the desert with riches and goods they need to continue to live there. For a century, since the beginning of the settlement, only the four chosen have been seen every month. Not always the same ones, but always only four men. Nobody actually know how many live in the settlement nowadays. Could be hundreds. Could be only a handful. But the quantity of Draft that comes to the shore every month is steady and has been from the beginning.Uses for the Draft
Known originally for its healing properties, the Draft is now used mostly in Magic by the Mages, mostly to create potions. It seems to be a stable base for alchemy product and healing potions. But it is rare and thus very expensive. Though the Marauders don’t seem to be rich, or don’t live like they are (not that we know off anyway), the draft is selling at a very high price, getting higher every year.Remove these ads.
