-My father, as you know, the [[Barony of Guildford|Baron Guildford]], has a small forest in the eastern edges of the barony in the Bishophill - a beautiful place with creeks running clear and cold out of the Shadowyarns.  Well, we haven’t had any trouble with orcs or raiders from the south recently – thanks to your lordship, Mr. U-Gene, sir.  So, I was sent there to gather some roots and berries – I’m kind of a potion-maker you see.  And, well, I came over a small rise, and there was… well… a hill there that had never been there – a right spire of rock with a castle sitting on top of it.  I saw hundreds of, well, ratmen pouring from the castle and into the woods and hills.  Well, I had a magic draft of invisibility with me, and I drank it and got home as fast as I could.  Dad is sick right now, some sort of fever, but he thought that I should report this to you straight away.

 The Masters of the Wind are the rulers of the caste known as the Runebound Warriors – the greatest fighters of the Tang Empire.  Shrines across the Tang Empire are imbued with the spirits of ancient warriors – bound by the runes carved into the temples.
-In desperation, the Emperor has broken the seal on the four temples of the Masters of Winds.  The Winds are the source of Chaos in the Tang Empire – unpredictable and wild.  The Emperor, under the advisement of Baron Valdemar, has ordered these warriors to destroy the Reaches.

 The Masters of the Winds appear as wizened ratmen dressed in robes that shimmer with runes.  Each will teleport their castle into the Reaches and begin to summon their armies.  Surrounding the Masters of the Winds are both Rune Marshals (generals) and Grey Mages.

 Second, I bring you a mysterious device - this copper rod.  It is rumored to be from an ancient Artifacer.  I, errr, found it along my way, but I cannot seem to open it.  It has the magic of summoning about it.  The owner told me that only the clever and patient will be able to open the rod and gain the Raiments – a gift that is said to be well worth the struggle.  A word of warning, however, once you put the rod down, you will forget all you know about it.   I wish you the best.  Remember, patience is key – whole life.
