07 A Warm Welcome

### ***Storyline:***

After being unable to sail towards Pharras with the villagers, Thomas had to take a reroute. Bronndin & Adhelion both suggested their homeland but since Ademre was not an option they sailed to Vintas. And that's where they are about to meet the elves and all of their race. While drawing near to the shores our heroes saw a whole squad of Elves. When they landed they met King Folduin, his right hand man Madriendil, and king's guardian Eialana. After a quick chat regarding the events that occurred once they were all at the first three kingdom meeting our heroes discussed the situation they had with the villagers. The king offered them a nice land next to the city known as the Research Hill. But they would have to ask for a permission from the villagers over there first.

After the discussion with the king they ran into Adhelion's brother - Astarion. After demoralizing everything that his brother did so far, Astarion took off in unknown direction, claiming he will always be better than him in every way possible. Bronndin and Thomas consort Adhelion and they head towards to meet his father - the wisest of all Elves. His house was just outside of Junpuri where he lived a solitary life. Adhelion's father Athillien that in order to visit the village it will be better to get a good reputation with the king first. After listening to him he gave his staff to Adhelion.

And then our heroes met with every important elven general in the city, Madriendil wanted to help Thomas by empowering his Dragon Lord's sword. He needed two herbs nearby which our heroes provided. After that he took the sword to the elven well in the city center to empower it. Later they met with elven master mage Talilia who needed them to collect snake eggs from the desert to the south. She told them about the brief history of Junpuri and how Adhelion's father was the wisest elf that ever lived. He purified the water of the poison orb long time ago. The orb that Umpokta used to try and kill off the elves. Luckily he cleansed it before anyone could get hurt. While helping her out Thomas was challenged by elven master guardian Eialana to a duel. Luckily Thomas won and she gave him an elven seal as a reward.

The king was pleased to hear about everything they have done for the fellow comrades of him and he commanded the elves at the Elven research hill to accept the villagers among them. He dispatched our heroes to go over there and ensure everything goes well. But when they reached research hill they found out that everyone over there was already murdered. So they took one piece of evidence to show it to the king once they return. In the meantime they spot a suspicious man standing to the south. But before they arrive he was gone.

After showing the hammer they found at the Research hill the King immediately recognizes it as Huchnom tribe weapon - the ally that is working with the Umpokta tribe. While in the middle of discussion he also mentions their leaders name - Sasama. In the meantime strange looking men dressed as elves came from the research hill. Not knowing the research hill was razed to the ground the gate guards let them inside the city. Turns out they were actually Umpokta tribe in disguise and they took the Orb in this quest along with Dragon Lord's sword that was inside. After clearing every intruder in the city our heroes were sent to hunt down their leader that fled to the south along with the orb. And that is where they all headed.

To the hill on the south Umpokta Warlord Tak'aresh was planning with his colleagues what to do with the elements that are about to hunt them. These colleagues were Jumano sisters - Nithotep & Shetu, Umpokta warlock - Themba, Huchnom tribe leader - Haggar and Umpokta master scout - Hazzar'amat. He ordered his master scout - Hazzar'amat to make a quick work of them and then join them on the way back. Of course our heroes defeated him since he was almost no match for them, but his actual goal was to slow them down - which he did.

After a brief discussion with the dying Umpokta master scout our heroes were shortly accompanied with none other but Adhelion's brother Astarion. He and 5 other master warriors of elven kingdom were sent to hunt the enemies down as well. This is the moment when Astarion informed them that they actually kidnapped their father and that is the top priority to hunt them down as fast as possible. And this is where they head towards the deadliest area of Vintas - the Great Desert.

### ***Tips:***

This is unique map, so far only in this map you don't have that much of a dangerous enemies nor time limits to do things. However enemies that you kill in here before the main mission where you reach Research hill they respawn every minute at the exact spot where you killed them. Take care.

When encircled by scorpions the best way to deal with it is to escape from it and try to collect them for AoE spells and kill them. Heal, use spell immunity and you will survive. When the city is invaded try to be in the back rows, don't engage and take aggro because you will be overwhelmed. Kil them all and the mission is over. Heal nearby elven units and help them kill the invaders.
