Realm

Messenger meets and briefs the team in the realm of Thuseus Echo, a blighted realm given to a whole lot of dust and kaiju. Debreu fights off a couple of tunnel trolls and Paradigm meets Knight Palidrox Gold; with his help, they fight off a kaiju. Gold is a draconid paladin who has been tasked to help them by "The Shiny One," whoever that is. He'll be around to help them occasionally.
The mission is to remove the four Anchors of the realm. In Realm they manage to gather the first from the border town of Almadan after Paradigm and Polidrox defeat the Kaiju and shrink the fusion generator.
