The Lake Shore

...Mortanas is surprised at who Fulton seemed to mention, “I haven't seen him in ages… when was the last time you came in contact with him?”

Fulton takes out what looks like a mushroom from a bag, and pops it into his mouth. “Not two days ago, in fact. Your questions will be answered soon, my friend.” He then walks away...

Having made it to the southern end of the lake, Duindos – who has been making various travels of importance – meets with Mortanas the dwarf first, with Fulton at one point joining in on the conversation. In addition to a warrior who Fulton mentions, Duindos speaks of his old team, consisting of seven elves. Avaru, trained in leadership and battlefield tactics, though far from the strongest of the group. Galgardor, a destroyer, quickest with the blade, but also in a way the most human out of the group, perhaps forgetful of his duty. Duindos, himself... protector and guardian – oath-sworn to defend the weak and strong both. The hunter Draugheron, powerful like Duindos, and long-standing leader of Draugmir before his fall – he let his desire of the stone consume him over time. And finally Luthbereth, master in history and lore – yet still blind like unto Galgardor, abandoning the fight according to Duindos. The last two members are not discussed. Lastly, Duindos is of course informed of the death of Daltor, and how they managed to escape the island with his sacrifice.
