Recently I found out an old friend of mine was kill. The reason is still unknown. Yet the few clues I had, already gave me and Narmaru reasons to believe the old legend of the Seven Red Moons is more than a mere legend.
For those outside my nation, the legend must be a rumor if not still unknown.
What I can remember of this legend is the following:
"The time will come when the red moons cover the night with their crimson light and the beast of the dark abyss come to the land.
It will be the time the Soul Masters will try to rule the caves and the valleys.
Yet where there is despair their is also hope. There is a way to seal the evil back but the method is not simple.
The Soul Master must be defeated using the Blood Sword of the Tribes."
That is more or less what I can recall... yet I don't have a clue as to where the sword is or when will we face the Soul Master.
The first step on this search is to travel back to Merstau Karmuna the sacred town between the valley and the temple caves. It is far from here. It is near the Nakalis, known to humans as Death Mountain.
Now that formalities are done, who will join this adventure.

Then we should start our journey ...
There are two ways to Merstau Karmuna:
1) A two moths walk around the mountains and then pay at the entrance and exit gates of the Dermatu tribe.
or
2) A two weeks "walk" through the Nakalis.
The second one is full of monsters and dangers so be warned.
Either way we will leave tomorrow so you better rest tonight.

We should go to where more monsters are. More monters = more killing = more XP = me very happy.
I choose option 2.

Well fellow travelers, the roads of Nakalis are full with dangers and abnormal creatures. I know what lies there....shadows....and flames. We better go to the other place, the tribe, sounds like a place to get some information, or mystical amulets

Seems as we have a draw for now.
My opinion is that both roads have advantages. The Nakalis ofer a lot of combat and I mean a lot. Few are those who manage to cross alive. But those who do, get stronger and wealtier. That is why the Dermatu Tribe is able to charge travelers. That is the only other entrence to Merstau Karmuna.
So what does the Dermatu tribe offers besides a safe path? Well, since they charge at both gates they are one of the most rich citeis near the valleys. Many merhcants travel to Merstau Karmuna to sell and buy unusual items. We could easily find new equipment for us there. It would cost much more than on other stores but it would be worth it. Since the only place to find them is this city; they often decide sell and buy values fro many things. They even got their type of currency. The Chefils "æ". A æ as of rigth now is worth 15 GP. Yet every two years it is remeasured.

Ok, time to use my secret card:
Tsukasa, if you're not a wussy choose to go through the Nakalis.

Please do not force others into your choices. Even if he doesn't vote for Nakalis he is no coward. Perseus decided to go through the Dermatu because there we can find new equipment but he does like the idea to figth in the Nakalis. Even I would be ready to take some action there, but I prefer to get information and items from the Dermatu.

You know what? If that makes you do the quest faster, let's go through Dermatu.
Hope my dwarf friends never find out I cowered..........

And so after some trouble deciding the path, we finally departed.
It was a normal summer day. We left early in the morning before sunrise and we kept walking for sometime under the sunlight. The first part concisted of open fields. Not much to se nor fear.
As we continue we enter the Lurmor Forest. There the trees were as bright in the night as stars and as black as charcoal during the day. This strange morphing forest gives home to many animals some of them could become a menance.
It was already noon when we encontered what seemed a little girl.
Tsukasa: Look!! A little girl!! She seems lost maybe we should help her.
Mephistopheles: If she got here by her own then she must be able to go back the same way.
Perseus: We could at least see if she needs our help.
Saying so they started walking towards her

I would prepare my weapons upon approaching her..... if I had a weapon, guess i don't need it.
"Who are you and what are you doing here?"
