Ladies and Gentlemen of Faeo,

With the May Bank Holiday over and the sun shining over Faeo, competition time has arrived. Serious competition. We've got a minimum of  5000 to give away in clan-based competitions! Members of the Human Guards and Magmar Guards clans are not eligibile for either of these competitions.

"What must I do to earn such riches," I hear you cry?! Well, the path to wealth and glory is never an easy one, but the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow is no unattainable mirage...

Oh, what horrors stalk our lands! Skeletal forms from another time terrify the new lands with their jangling bodies and bitter minds, dreaming of when they were a force on Faeo... But, dear warrior, what beauties, what treasures, what wonders they possess! A wanderer has told the Antiquarian many tales of the shining armour these beasts wear and now the Antiquarian wants to get his hands on it.

The exceptional strength and twisted fury of these beasts means this a quest only for the bravest and most experienced warriors of level 5 and above. If this is you, then Magmars should head to  Menachem the Antique Dealer in the Valley of Fire and Humans should make their way to  Samary the Antiquarian in the Outskirts of Klesva.

Forthcoming: More level 2 and level 5 quests and weddings...Keep an eye on the news pages for more.

New quest for Magmars and Humans.

Level 4 players and above only!

The forests are crawling, absolutely teeming, with destructive little beetles, known as Krobz Bark Beetles. They take up residence in the bark of bushes and trees, chewing it up and killing the plants. If things carry on as they are,  Hawken the Forester and  Vaslav the Ranger will soon be out of forest to protect and need some level 4 warriors to come to their aid!

	Krobz Bark Beetle
	Miscellaneous Level 3  10 Duration 2hr A serious pest to the forest environment, this small beetle lives in bark and wood and devours weak and sickly trees. Received: small possibility when killing an Arboris and very small possibility when killing a Young Arboris.

 Hawken the Forester can be found in Zviglod Grove and  Vaslav the Ranger is waiting for assistance on Light's Edge.

And if you're lucky enough to find a Queen Krobz, it might well prove very handy if some dastardly enemy dares to lay a hex on you. Find out more on the Bringers of Evil library page.

	Queen Krobz Bark Beetle
	Miscellaneous Level 3  1 Duration 1d A serious pest to the forest environment, the queen bark beetle lives in bark and wood and lay their eggs in the tunnels they gnaw in the trees. They differ from normal Krobz beetles because they possess a unique quality - a Queen Krobz beetle can be used to cleanse an organism of all medium strength negative energy. Therefore, they can be effectively used to remove the curse of a Simple Hex. It may also possibly work on the curse of Swamp Hex, but there is no chance of it removing the curse of a Gehenna Hex. Received: very small possibility when killing an Arboris and an even smaller possibility when killing a Young Arboris.

The time has come, indefatigable warriors, to learn more about your people, more about where you came from, more about the enmity which so divides Faeo.

For months now, the historians of Faeo, under the guidance of  Flavviy the Wise and  Pandrik the Wise, have been toiling over pages of chronicles in some ancient script, translating and researching the knowledge contained within.

Of particular interest to the Humans will be the sections The Battle of the Humans and the Dark Elves, The Murder of Phyonius the Sage and The Human Empire, whilst Magmars will no doubt be interested to read what the sections The Magmar Empire and The Assassination of Andelvan have to say. But ignore each other's stories at your own peril.

Read the latest history of Faeo now and understand the devastating impact of the Era of Change.

Dear Esteemed  Guards of Faeo,

The craftsmen of Faeo have long been working to perfect a set of armour suitable for those who protect the  Humans of Ogriy and the  Magmars of Khair.

Whilst you may have seen the foot patrols sporting prototypes of this armour, it is only now that the craftsmen are willing to release it to the finest  Guards of Faeo.

You can use the Ancient Coins you receive for your work as a  Guard to buy this armour. Humans can speak to  Warlord Damirus about acquiring a set of Judgement Armour; Magmars should have a word with  Warlord Gidver about the Justice Armour he has available.

We thank you for your work and hope that you will stay with your clan for a long time yet, so as to allow you to acquire a complete set of this fine and distinctive armour.

In a new quest for level 6 players, the old hags of Faeo,  Brugil'da the Sorceress and  Gredeya the Witch, have run out of the special Shizka mushroom because there is so much evil being brought to Faeo at the moment. The Shizka is a rare type of mushroom which only grows on the oldest of Arboris trees. If you fancy yourself as a bit of an expert on mushrooms, then pop along to the witches and offer your services. There may even be a brew in it for you.

Magmars can find  Brugil'da in the Village of Maettro and Humans will find  Gredeya in the Wild Forest.

There will be new quests for lower level players soon.
