You and your team enter The Ruined Lands. They sprawl before you, thick with overgrown plants that conceal wild animals shrieking from afar. You and the other enter the ruined lands with you mission. The King of Karaz has told you of a corruption that is sprawling across the land. It is up to you all to try and end the corruption and bring peace to the islands again. You hold the maps of the land, Talik having the knowledge of the Mages, Alster with Haden has new shields that are holding well. They will protect you from the dangerous corruption, but you don't dare touch anything for fear of alerting some ferocious beast.

As you explore your surroundings, you start to wonder if this task is impossible. How will you even begin to cure the corruption or stop it from spreading? You only hope the child of light can help you!
