A long lost explorer's journal has been recovered.
An eccentric scholar the notes seem to be coded somewhat for this
last great find.
JOURNAL ENTRY:
I have found the remains of a lost civilization, here is written
the epic I have discovered.
The Rampart was constructed by three Nobel races to try and keep
the encroaching Enemy out.
But it eventually fell after a great and valiant but ultimately
doomed combined battle.
Then the people began to quarrel among themselves,
until they splintered into their last retreats.
The first deep to the earth. The second to their fires of industry.
The third to their refuge above it all.
There stood a GREAT STONE DOOR to shelter the earth, a GREAT WOODEN
GATE to guard the fires, and a GREAT MYSTICAL PATH obscured to
those below.
But these too fell with greater loss until once again the survivors
accepted their true calling and began a great working together.
They studied, planned and created a GREAT LIGHTHOUSE at the sea's
edge to guide them forever to their final REWARD.
All is different now, even the great sea has dried up. But here are
hints of the treasure, abandoned worldly goods, left at the ruins
of a great lighthouse...
