The Charasis Tome

“Charasis City of the Kunzar Nestled deep in the plains of the Overthere rests the cliff city of Charasis. This city of grandeur was home to the mightiest of all ancient Iksar tribes, the Kunzar. Charasis is also recorded as the birthplace of the great Emperor Venril Sathir the Uniter. Although Emperor Sathir ruled from the Kunzar city of Sebilis, he was rumored to have stored his most valuable possessions within the library of Charasis. Emperor Sathir’s beloved, Drusella, rests within a grand crypt in Charasis’ depths. After her funeral and burial, Emperor Sathir cast all citizens from the cliff city. Only the royal guard and servants where allowed to stay, forever. These Iksar were never again to feel the warmth of the sun or bask in the moonlight. It is written that Emperor Sathir crafted a spell to hide the entrance of Charasis from raiders and those who dared to steal his knowledge and defile his beloved Drusella’s crypt. Emperor Sathir would visit the cliff city frequently. What he would do inside is not known. Upon the death of one of Emperor Sathir’s royal guard was revealed the secret to gaining entry into Charasis. Upon a tattered scroll did the guard record the secret. The scroll is now lost to the world. Taken as pure babble by the mortician, it was cast aside and lost to time. After Emperor Sathir’s death his son and new emperor, Rile, was the last to hold the secret of entry. The ancient cult of Emperor Sathir known as the Arisen are rumored to have acquired the lost scroll of the royal guard. They are said to care for the crypt of the late Emperor Sathir. It was during the time known as the End Days that the spirits of Tunare, Underfoot and the Rainkeeper destroyed most of the great cities of the ancients. Charasis and its guardians and treasures are lost forever. May those entombed within guard her secrets from invaders.”
