08 Abducted

### ***Storyline:***

After the abduction of their father, Adhelion and his brother Astarion followed the intruders from Umpokta tribe to the Great desert, a vast landscape of sharp rocks and wasteland. Also a desert with not much to offer except for high temperatures and sand. It is here where our heroes decided to go to the south to meet up with Astarion's old colleague - Tsarra. They had to meet up with her so she could give them guidelines where to head after the desert in search of the Umpokta tribesmen. After a short discussion with his brother, Astarion took off to the North to follow river's flow while they search the south for any possible clues.

While going through the desert our heroes did not meet any of the important characters on the road. When they reached Tsarra's House they did not find her there, only the note saying 'Meet me at the mine'. Not happy with the news to go over to the other side of the desert Bronndin accidentally found 4 gems lying next to the small pond next to Tsarra's House. He took them and while doing so he dropped one in the pond and the magic runes surrounding him disappeared, while the gem he was holding glowed bright. Thomas and Adhelion then decided to visit other runic oasis that could be found in the desert in hopes of doing the same to the other gems. They succeeded in doing so and after that they headed towards the crystal mine to the other side of the desert.

When they reached the mine, they found a lot of Dwarves mining as well as Tsarra among them, but it seemed she was some kind of a prisoner to them. After a short talk with the Expedition leader - Maggron Oreheart, our dwarf mentioned him that he has 4 glowing gems. Hearing this the leader decided to test the gems by activating Arcane Guardians they created together over the time. After using the glowing gems, they Arcane Guardians came to life. Thrilled with this they discovered that the gems have to be activated before they could use them, and only Tsarra could make such runes. Thus while collecting these 4 gems, Maggron Oreheart decided to kidnap Tsarra and bring her back to Tarbean with them. Not happy with this Bronndin argued with the leader but he insulted him saying he is no one while he is the expedition leader. That enraged Adhelion and Thomas who said that Bronndin is more than he will ever be, which resulted in a fight our heroes won.

Bronndin commanded every dwarf that they are to collect everything they collected so far and head back to Ademre. Our heroes collected all the gems the leader took from them and as a reward Tsarra let them take the Arcane Guardians with them on their journey. She told them that to the south of here lies a great steppe and next to it is the Huchnom City - the Huchnom Tribe capital. Our heroes head towards the city with Arcane Guardians on their side, ready to remove anyone standing in their way.

### ***Tips:***

In this map, time is not on your side since there is heat that is damaging you over time, potentially killing you. However you still need to manage mana usage since there will be a lot of enemies to deal with. Use oasis shade to cover yourselves against sun and heal over time. Regroup and manage your mana and then head towards new goal.

While in the desert area, sand elementals are respawning whenever you kill them, so there is not a lot of time to waste near oasis. Kill them, collect whatever needs to be collected and onto the next target area. Once finished with the quest, regroup and head to the mine with full health bars since there are a lot of enemies until you reach the mine.
