This magick shoppe smells of sulfur and the smokey residue of burned herbs. It is a well-stocked store, and through the back door you see a complex machine consisting of various spheres intertwined. <pb>The mage of this shoppe is tall and thin, dressed in dark gray robes. His skin is pale and his eyes are as black as coal. He approaches you. "My name is Valx Grayraven. You are welcome in my shop to look about."

"Do you have any jobs that I could do for you?"
"Why yes, there is. I am working on a potion that must remain stable for several years, and the only reagent that can accomplish this is teeth from a troll. It's not easy to extract teeth from a live troll, and so my crafting has been put on hold until I can acquire what I need." <pb>"I know of a person in the Elderoak Forest, east of here, who dabbles in a bit of witchcraft. Her name is Baizel, and I am sure she would have some troll teeth. It would be best not to bother asking her; just look around and see if you can find some. Bring me back the teeth I need, and you will be rewarded."

"That is a magnificent machine you have out back. What is it?"
"Ah, so you like my orrery do you? I spent 13 years constructing it, sparing no expense or effort to ensure the gears matched the movement of the firmament. A good orrery will show you the future and tell you of the past. Mine is the finest ever made, I assure you."

"I have those teeth that you requested." [Give Valx the Troll Teeth]
"Ah, and so you do. My, those are splendid samples. Troll teeth possess unique properties that are useful in alchemy experiments, and these will help me with mine. Here is some gold for your trouble, and because you have shown me that you are favorable to the Magickal Arts, I would be pleased to offer you training. Come see me when you want to know more about it."

"What does it show you of the future?"
The mage smiles at you, his pale lips parting to reveal jagged, brown teeth. <pb>"The movement of the heavens affect this world, governing the rise of tides and the flow of magma. Eschalon is under a great burden from the pull of its celestial sisters. Soon there will be a perfect alignment of celestial orbs that will put unfathomable stress on our mother-sphere. She will shake and she will crack, of this I have no doubt." There is a pleasure in the old mage's eyes at the confidence in his prediction, if not the event itself.

"What does it tell you of the past?"
"It tells me that Eschalon has existed for eons and eons before the first human or dwarven kind walked the dry lands. Our world-sphere has undergone great changes during past events, and will continue to do so. Such is the nature of the cosmos."

"When will this event happen?"
"It is hard to say. Although the gears on my orrery are nearly perfect, the slightest bit of error can throw off its accuracy by days, weeks, and even years. While I know not the exact moment of this event, I am certain that it will happen, and it will happen sooner rather than later."

"I'd like to inquire about training in the Magickal Arts."
"Well then, I can train you in the realm of Elemental Magick if you are ready. With it, you can control armies and set fire to the world. I think it is the most powerful of all the magickal practices."
