The Pillars of the Earth

The Pillars of the Earth are a series of four raids spread across all of Ibeon, each embodying the powers of the four elements. The four raids serve as the final encounters of Patch X-32.
== Attunement ==
There is no specific attunement needed to enter the four Pillar's of the Earth.
== History ==
The people of Ibeon have long revered the elements; many people revering them instead of following the faith of Phafaendan and other gods. Ancient peoples built great temples to each of the four elements, housing within great spirits that embodied the powers of the natural elements.
As the ages went on, reverence of these ancient spirits waned, only a select devoted few maintained the temples and offered sacrifice to the great spirits. Certain groups, dedicated to varying gods, began to prosecute these elemental worshippers, hunting the groups in an attempt to snuff out all primal and non-divine worship. These groups only survived by harnessing the power of their gods to fight back, but the harnessing of this power angered their elemental masters, demanding more power in return for what was stolen.
Regular sacrifice and worship did nothing to increase the elemental power however. Stuck with no hope to return the power, despair fell upon these elemental cults, until strangers approached them, offering them salvation. These strangers were of the cult of the Black Sun, and their offer of help in turn corrupted the elemental spirits, turning them to the side of shadows. 
Many of these elemental temples were lost during the war with the Black Sun years ago, and the elemental spirits falling into a deep slumber, laying long forgotten.
== Storyline ==
The cult of the Black Sun has uncovered the lost temples to the elemental spirits, once more raising these spirits in their service. The heroes must destroy the cult forces, push back the unrelenting devotees of the elements, and free the elemental lords from their dark shadows before they can be used to ravage the world.
"The land itself heeds my call! The lords of the elements shall ravage your world!"
