Several turns later, Domel's company arrived before the oddly shape portcullis which was drawn up as they approached it. Past the portcullis was a soldier in Lizard Leathers who saluted Domel.

A extremely holy geographical formation found deep in the Sacred Ravine in eastern Ka-Abir.

According to rumors, the Cliffs contain calcified Ziggurats from a bygone age long even before the Primordial Age.

The standard billowed in the wind for several moments as Domel gazed at the guard who moved turned his spyglass towards it. After a few more moments the guard stowed his spyglass and appeared to call out to someone to his right.

A type of writing implement known for its light weight and resistance to water. While the clay tablet is the most common writing implement, it is known for its cumbersome nature.

In history it has been adopted by several arrogant geniuses who domaniated the lands leaving their marks on the world.
