The fear of the incoming army has many people spooked and are trying to get out of the city to go see family.   You three make your way passed the line and Jako, the leader of your group flashes a badge that says “RBC”   A small riot begins as the room fills with more and more anger, it's chilly outside but in here the sweat is palpable. The people are in their winter gear trying to take what they can to get out of the city.   A loud voice booms over the crowd, in walks an older man with the twisted staff, there is a glowing blue ball at the tip. He wears thick glasses and has various trinkets tied into his beard.   “Calm fellow SKygardians, fear and anger will not solve our problems.”   He whirls his stick around and you feel the air cool immediately rush in from the upstairs windows, calming some of the tension.   “The High Guard is working as fast as they can, the Magi Guild will also be here to expedite paperwork as we escort everyone out of the city.”   Jako nudges you to move on, mentions that was Boto Silverstaff.   Return to the boss after walking through the Merlin District A hunched mine dwarf sits in his chair counting coin meticulously His paper lits by a glowing orb floating above his head.   Tasked to retrieve an item from a man fleeing the city as he owes money to Oxford   So find a man named Toldur Toldur in the mass migration of people leaving the city.   Take his saving he is carrying with him in front of his wife and daughter   Return again as the city is atacked by Lord Teyranus of Hearthen   Find yourself in the safety of the bank but tasked to do one last job, the advisor Silver Tung owes a lot of money to the RBC.

In the Magi Guild, an item passed down to their great grandfather is housed in the guild for protection and study. With the magi helping with evacuation, it will be less protected.   Get valaurian shard,   Leave and find boto fighting in the streets as well as many other wizards   Have pyrus show up and you run   After the brief fight, malakai is seen breaking out of the magi guild holding the item   Pyrus then kills Jako   Malakai sees this, drops the artifact and it starts exploding, boto controls the blasts so everyone can run, including malakai.   As Boto used the last of his power to close the rift, he was unable to take the strain caused on his body. The Grandwizard lay motionless on the ground as the city burned around him. The Sons of Hearthen and the Manastrife Union did not get the weapon or take Skygarde but they still came out with a victory as the main stronghold for Galfin had fallen.   As people cried around, a lone figure walked his way into the burning city, unphased by the people begging for help. He shook his head at the level of irresponsibility that led to something like this.   The man knelt down at the wizard’s body and looked towards the Magi Guild. On the ground lay the little cube shaped box that Boto had been researching. The man stood up and took off his hood. He looked to a young person following behind him. He gestured for his companion to catch up then looked down at the frail body on the ground.   “You arrogant fool, this was inevitable in your hands. Rest well brother.”   His silver blew in the wind as ash stained his silver and blue outfit. Remus Silverstaff reached down and picked up the cube, placed it in his pocket and turned to his ward.   “You see Iona, this is why we must not let untapped power into the hands of those who are not worthy.   Puzzle Cube of Vlox is with Seekers   Valauric Shard is with Howl Halkstack and Tallaught
