In the northern regions, venturing beyond the immediate area of the Borealis generator reveals many peculiar and strange occurrences. Among these unusual sights are the diverse forms of ritualism practiced within the northern territories. Over time, as the land has been scarred and shaped by the passage of ages, numerous types of religious theology have emerged, each leaving its unique mark.


The adventurers, in their journeys, stumbled upon one such strange site—a mysterious altar dedicated to an elder frost elemental, a potent creature of cold and ice. This altar, ancient and enigmatic, bore the signs of a long-forgotten ritual. Upon awakening the elemental, the adventurers engaged in conversation, utilizing their skills to communicate with the ancient being. However, this creature was undeniably peculiar, possessing powers that befitted its age and status, though it was restrained by restrictions that prevented it from expressing the full extent of its rage.   The adventurers, sensing the elemental's frustration, mocked and desecrated its shrine, playing tricks and games with its summoning. Despite its growing ire, the elemental could not physically retaliate. Amidst the chaos, the adventurers made a request of the creature—to reveal elements from another theology. The elemental, reluctantly obliging, enabled an interaction that proved to be short-lived and chaotic.   During this tumultuous encounter, the adventurers discovered the presence of another creature in the area—a dragon, mutated by the powers of the north. This dragon, capable of manifesting its own rules and arcane laws, harbored a severe malevolence toward the explorers. The adventurers, realizing the threat posed by this mutated dragon, set their hearts on seeing it slain in due time, marking the beginning of another chapter in their saga.   This discovery not only highlighted the diverse and evolving theologies of the north but also underscored the dangers and mysteries that awaited those who dared to explore its frozen expanses. The adventurers, through their interactions with the elder frost elemental and their uncovering of the mutated dragon, added yet another layer to the rich tapestry of the northern lands' lore.
