Path into the Fire
Stage 1
Location:Netherdeep (Dark Glyph) (3, 3)
You walk into a small chamber. Near the back stands a large pillar. You can see spirals carved into the surface, a dark flame runs around the base. Before the pillar, a large symbol made from the darkfire burns. You are mesmerized by the strange beauty of it. Then a harsh chuckle to your right, spins you around, an odd echo stands silently in the darkness.
The Echo bows it's head, 'I am sorry, I meant no offense mortal. I have strict instructions to kill anyone who steps near the Bridge or the Glyph. But you have done neither. You simply look. I see you are drawn to the Glyph. This is indeed odd. The Altus Spiral lures all toward the Pillar and their doom. But not you. Why do you stare at the Glyph?'

You struggle for words, 'The symbol looks like its breathing somehow.' The Echo stares at you, 'How perceptive, yeeesssss I had not thought of that. The Glyph is drawing power from the Bridge when it requires it. Not unlike taking a breath as the living do. Please do not step any further into the chamber. I do not wish to take your life.' You take a step backwards towards the door. The Echo seems to relax considerably. You ask him what would give you permission to inspect the darkfire symbol. The Echo snorts 'Only the bearer of the Keystaff may pass back through the Glyph, or allow others to use it. But only our Master carries the staff.'

You should go see if you can acquire this Keystaff, so you can get a closer look at that Glyph.
