Exasperated with recent battle losses, Emperor Ladantine VII wanders
into the city of Magnagora. He arrives at the Megalith and into the
presence of various citizens. After he announces that he seeks Yishka
Feyranti, several young citizens begin asking around. When no
information about the location of this lady was found, the Emperor
informs the small crowd that Snaikka I'Xiia might know. Kalas Vibeke
pays Snaikka a visit and learns that Yishka must be somewhere in the
city. Meantime, Kalas Ixion had been scouring the city. He finds Yishka
in the Cathedral, completely uninterested in any sort of summons.

Ixion returns to the Emperor with his report and they made their way
together to Yishka Feyranti. Emperor Ladantine made his demand known to
Yishka and all present - more might for himself. After some haggling,
Yishka agrees to make a potion for the Emperor on the condition that
others like him may benefit from the concoction if they wished. Emperor
Ladantine grudgingly agrees to provide a ship for her work before
disappearing back to his cave.

Half a day passes with no sign of the ship. Getting impatient, Yishka
Feyranti seeks out Kalas Vibeke's assistance to speak with the Emperor.
After numerous trips back and forth, Kalas Vibeke finally extracts all
the needed information from the Emperor to call forth the ship. Despite
Vibeke's generous efforts to attain her fellow citizens' help, she ends
up collecting the required materials of wood and firefly squids on her
own.

Returning to Yishka Feyranti, they proceed together to the harbour to
build the beacon needed to call the ship to shore. With the fury of the
captured firefly squids, the wood crystalises into an intense glowing
beacon. Soon enough, the churning sea releases a sunken ship from its
watery grave, to dock in Magnagora's habour.

The emergence of the ship stirs up interest from others however. Kalas
Shasura generously provides a large sum of gold to hire some good
sailors for the raised ship. Lord Raezon arrives as his followers try to
claim the ship. Soon after, Lord Raezon leaves mysteriously. Finally,
things calm down and Yishka Feyranti is able to work on her potion for
the Emperor in relative peace.

With assistance from Daevos Feyranti to retrieve a flask from the
sailors, Kalas Vibeke successfully hands the potion to the pleased
Emperor some days later.

Penned by My hand on the 17th of Urlachmar, in the year 244 CE.
