Ancient Mines
This paragraph is not official information and partially made of legends and rumors. Although you never know what is true and what is just nonsense.
Long ago there was the book of the Four Elements. Its content speaks about ancient methods to produce weapons, spells and even planet destroying technology.
The Book of the Four Elements was long lost. But through the many excavations, more and more fragments of the book are found.
Magic had long been a part of common life on Dara again. But in this book ancient magic spells of past generations have been described in detail and explained how they work. Combined with the new technologies, this knowledge could be further developed into an ultimate weapon.
The fragments that have been found so far were mainly related to the two elements fire and earth. Information on water and air has so far been incomplete or, one could say, fragmentary.
Even now, it is safe to say that fire spells, contained in this book, held devastating potential. Various raw materials were still missing in order to restore the most powerful spells, but it is only a matter of time before they are found.
Some historians took the view that the raw materials necessary for restoration no longer existed. However, there was no evidence of this. Others held that the raw materials were hidden deep within the mines of Dara.
But why do we find mines on Dara that are over 3000 m deep. Even today it was still very dangerous and time-consuming to penetrate deeper than 2000 m into the ground.
Some say that in the many conflicts during the occupation of Dara, many bunkers were built that deep to hide from the Dara Empire. But there are also Dara Empire bunkers going that deep. And they are still digging.
But not all bunkers are safe. Most are very dangerous.Sometimes they implode when events nearby endanger their stability.
The ancient Dara Mines have been a legend for hundreds of years. When we say ancient we do not mean the bunkers… Within the deeper bunkers there must be some portals that lead to the ancient mines. At least some believe so!
Some believe that they do not exist at all.
But we have proof of an ancient spell casted by a Dara Cult Mutant that should not be possible. The effect of this spell was nowhere near any known spell and would twist and turn all knowledge about magic.
So … is it a legend ? is it a fact? Can the Book of the four elements be restored?
It seems we need to find out!
