Description

Rukia:

Some time ago, Ekimmu built up fortifications southeast of Tarat and reinforced his troops in order to have his revenge on Birambar. Recently we were attempting to observe the orcs' troop movements when we realised that they had disappeared without a trace! Now the place is crawling with nothing but ancient Rahu. If I were the betting type, I'd bet the Black Knights were behind this, but I can't prove it. Unfortunately, I've got to stay here, so I can't verify my theory. Can you help me, Player, and make your way to the Ekim Orcs' fort to look for clues? Something very fishy is going on there and we've got to find out what it is.

[Player]:

Got it! But 'ancient Rahu', you say? Don't the orcs, goblins, and kobolds also belong to them?

Rukia:

Yes, they also belong to the Rahu tribe. However, in comparison to them these ancient Rahu are a lot wilder and more destructive! The scorpion warriors at the Altar Gate belong to them, for example. Ever since the soul piece appeared and the Black Knights got into the mix, the Rahu have changed. We're not dealing with simple orcs and goblins anymore, but with real beasts! At the same time, they seem to be very well-coordinated, so much so I suspect that someone's giving them orders or controlling them. You, Player, have to find out who is pulling the strings here!

Rukia:

Ekimmu no longer has free will, but is being controlled? Then that must mean someone's controlling the orcs as well! The Black Knights are surely behind this.
