"Well, it's why I'm here. Sir Johnson hired me to help him search for them. What do you need to know?
- What is their history?
- There was a war here decades ago. Not an official war, mind you, but a war nonetheless. The rakshasa arrived from gods-know-where and started building their city. They claimed about 500 square miles of land for themselves and forced everyone out.
- This is technically part of the Council Lands, and the Council considered the rakshasa to be "demonic invaders."
- At first the rakshasa were amused... I don't think they were expecting much resistance to their arrival. But they stopped being amused pretty quickly.
- The Council soon had them on the defensive... that's when the Crone Hegemony showed up to help.
- The crone Hegemony?
- The Crone Hegemony was - and still is! -- always looking for opportunities to disrupt the Council. So they struck some sort of deal with Rahu, and then Hegemony troops just appeared here.
- They arrived by sea, by land, by air. By magical teleportation that the Council swore was impossible. There were hundreds of thousands of them pretty quickly.
- And the Crone Hegemony knows how to dig in for a long fight. They made bunkers all over the place. Those bunkers are what Sir Johnson calls "War Caches."
- Most of the War Caches housed troops and supplies. There were two whole Legions of minotaur troops... don't worry, though: there's probably not many minotaurs left alive down there!
- They held Ilmari for a few years, but the Council rallied incredible numbers of troops and magical beasts. And then the history gets a little fuzzy...
- What do you mean?
- Well, we aren't exactly sure of the order of events. Maybe the Hegemony just called it quits and left. Or maybe they had a falling out with Rahu. I don't really know. But one day most of the Hegemony troops just left. Presumably they left via teleportation... despite the incomprehensible cost of teleporting an entire army! Or maybe they snuck away somehow. Anyway, that's not important.
- With the Hegemony gone, Rahu knew they couldn't hold out! So they destroyed the land.
- They destroyed the Ilmari desert?
- Oh, no, you see, Ilmari was a pleasant green land back then. It was mostly grazing lands and farms, with only a few cities, but it certainly wasn't a desert!
- Rahu used a device they called a 'Naturesphere' to disrupt the weather patterns. They drummed up gigantic storms... storms which lasted for almost three years!
- They made a three-year storm?
- Their magical storm just kept raining, year after yer. And lightning kept striking. Eventually everything burnable burned, and everything that could be washed away was washed away. And now we have a desert.
- Well, that's a bit reductive. There's much more to learn here, which is why I agreed to come work for Sir Johnson in the first place! I believe the windstorms are actually magically-induced. Could the naturesphere still be hidden in the desert somewhere? Now THAT would be a magnificent prize!
- I... see. Thank you for the info.
- What will I find inside?
- I've only personally explored a few of them. But I believe there are hundreds of bunkers still out there, and there's no way to predict what you'll find in each one.
- Well, there are a few similarities. For instance, you'll probably find a Minotaur Vault.
- What's a Minotaur Vault?
- Well, to explain a Minotaur Vault is, we have to step back a moment. Have you met a Minotaur? They're unstoppable bull-men in battle. They're terrifying! But outside of battle, they're different. Minotaurs have incredible memories, and exceptional problem-solving skills. And they love puzzles, riddles, and mazes! And wherever Minotaur troops are found, there's bound to be puzzles.
- The ones in the Ilmari had a system for storing their valuables in chests. I call them Minotaur Vaults, but they're just oversized storage crates with a magical lock.
- How do you open them?
- Part of the Minotaurs' fun involved hiding the answer in plain sight. You need to look for the symbols used in the vault, and then you can figure out the answer.
- Actually, if you're interested in opening Minotaur Vaults, I highly recommend you use my practice vault first.
- You have a practice Minotaur Vault?
- Yes, it's in my bedroom, in the upstairs area above Drima. Feel free to experiment with it. My notes are on top of the vault, you may find them useful as well.
- Thank you.
