conversations.value: The plains of Kja are said to be a paradise. The glistening pale grasses rippling in a sweet breeze. The herds of vahjen sipping at the small tributaries that run like crystalline veins through the land, leading to the cold heart of Lake Idjara. And the seat of the Somë empire, expanding from the shore like a song of hope. And in its walls lay the brightest minds, a swell of art and music, the most coveted society, and... boredom.
  
  Luckily, you won't be seeing that place for quite some time. You're on an expedition deep to the south of the continent, on a research expedition for the luminaries of Idjara-Va-Röan. And yes, you'll be helping gather information for them. But maybe you'll also have a chance to do some exploring of your own.

conversations.value: A Treasure More Precious than Gold: There is something of immense value to you still in the living world. You can't rest until you find a place for it. Your presence in the physical world increases when it's at risk, and you can cast spells as well.
