<em>Our adventure begins three miles outside the small town of Arendel, where the temple of Elora rests amidst the green fields. Statues carved in heavens honor adorn the scenery, yet even their beauty is outstripped by the marble palace of worship that dominates the entire area. Ordained with beautifully colored pane glass windows, and perfectly chiseled monuments, it's obvious to any onlooker that this has to be largest temple for miles to come. The fields outside it are always trafficked by pilgrims and worshipers, but on this day they see even more footfalls as a large number of strangers gather for the ceremony. <br/><br/>Vendors and entertainers stand ready to serve any wealthy travelers waiting to bear witness, and the priesthood busily hands out food and drink to the volunteers lending aid. The six adventurers among the lot are different though, called on a different purpose. A personal summons from the high priest is what brought them here, and through piousness, good deeds, or the promise of wealth, each of them has come along to speak with him at length about the duties he wishes them to perform. <br/><br/>No one has been called back to see the high priest yet, and all inquirers have gotten the same answer. <strong>"The fountain of silver tears is currently being readied for the ceremony. The high priest will see to you when it is finished."</strong> Not the model response that could be hoped for, but in the mean time plenty of entertainment awaits the party. Various performers are putting on shows for the volunteers, and there are no shortage of handsome and pretty acolytes ready to serve food or drink to those who wait.</em>
