After sneaking away from the guards, they find a weapon room, and ready themselves for action. They deal with the guards, and save Frogo. Along the way they find Asraar Jabal, an old but mysterious old hazel skinned man. Asraar Jabal uses some black powder to blow up a wall to a seemingly empty cave. Upon going in, they hear noises from behind, and Not'umel splits up from the party, and hands Thorne Hayes a glowing rock. The rest of the group heads for the cave, to which they discover is filled with spiders.
As they escape to the cave, they hear an explosion, blocking the way they came from. From there, they go through the cave, fighting numerous spiders on the way. Upon seeing a waterway, they temporarily split up, Asraar Jabal going with Thorne Hayes , and Frogo going with Kalahan Ostragoth, following the cave river. Along the way they fight through cave spiders, and eventually being to spot a giant spider blocking the entrance. They regroup, and formulate a plan of attack, and execute it. After salvaging the giant spider's parts, they hear Not'umel running towards them, warning them that they need to run. Looking at the direction he came from, they spot Mortum with her guards. After escaping the cave, Not'umel blows up a part of the cave roof, blocking their path, and effectively escaping Mortum's grasps. The group sees the outside for the first time in two decades, a deceivingly dark forest. After escaping, Asraar Jabal decides to part ways, and hands Frogo a letter in Thieves' kant. Asraar Jabal could tell Frogo was one like him, and told Frogo to stay tuned. The Great War, there was a stalemate between the people of Titan and what is now known as Aeternitas. However, Mortum still advances outwards towards the rest of Titan. Thorne Hayes asked what happened to the pirate clans, and Not'umel answered that ever since one of the major clans were wiped out, it has been suspiciously stable. When Frogo asked about his home Regfufio, he answers that there has been a coup d'état, a violent takeover of the state. Not much is known, but it is supposedly more religious, with a new queen. Not much is known about the previous king. As a last thing, Mortum must never get her hands on the glowing stone, and must be hidden away, given to the Fates. Not'umel greets them farewell, and says that they will meet again.
In the year of 4997, an ancient evil returned to this world, from the land of Aeternitas. Shadow beings were released from these cursed lands, corrupting the surrounding landscapes. Mortum, the ruler of Aeternitas, launched numerous assaults across Titan. The following years, the surrounding kingdoms began invading back, protecting their land, and stopping the invasion. In the year 5003, a collective push was initiated, drafting numerous reserve soldiers and citizens. The group now known as Azure, was one of the chosen ones. Some like Kalahan Ostragoth, willingly choose to fight, while others like Frogo and Thorne Hayes, were dragged into a war they didn't want to fight for. The resulting assault ultimately failed, and lead to a stalemate between the kingdoms. In the year 5023, Not'umel frees Azure from Mortum's prison. A guards spots them, and they quickly dispose of them. Thorne Hayes interrogates them, revealing that they've been frozen in stone for around two decades. They steal the key and weapon from the guard, and follow Not'umel. Frogo splits up from the group, resulting in them investigating two paths to get to the exit. Frogo is stuck dealing with a guard, while the other group stumples upon Puffer, and ultimately save her. After sneaking away from the guards, they find a weapon room, and ready themselves for action. They deal with the guards, and save Frogo. Along the way they find Asraar Jabal, an old but mysterious old hazel skinned man. Asraar Jabal uses some black powder to blow up a wall to a seemingly empty cave.
