Overview

Drawn from Book of Power in-game book.EQ2Primary · mirrored · best available source

A small inscription written in the common tongue reads, "May he who wishes to know of the immense power of the Awakened seek out the mystical key to the tome and return only whence he has found it."

The Book of Power: Awakened Blood

Each of the three pillars of the Awakened bring their own unique power to the table. Should the dragons wish to pass on their power to a younger age, each shall have much to teach.

Without power, the Awakened would not have had the power to claim Sky as their realm. Only the truly mighty could lay claim to Veeshan's realm in such a fashion, or so I am led to believe.

Lord Vyemm is the perfect specimen of physical prowess. In the brood war against the giantkin of Kael Drakkel, what little documentation exists suggests that only the mightiest warriors the giants could put forth finally wounded him.

Though he was injured in the battle, Vyemm returned to full health not long after the fighting ceased. All totaled, Vyemm's damage to the giant city would not be repaired for many a cold year to follow.

Harla Dar's nobility has shown her true power to be in that of the art of persuasion. Tis said that political society exists for the sake of noble actions, and not of mere companionship, and nothing could be more true of dragons.

You say, 'son'

Harla Dar says 'Have you seen him? I must find him, he has been gone far to long! If you have harmed him, I will slay you and all of your race! Tell me where he is!'

You say, 'Seen who?'

Harla Dar says 'My whelp, Frakadar. I was sunning myself and he wandered off. At first I did not worry, for he never went far before. But it has been hours and hours, and no other dragon has seen him. I have flown calling his name, but he does not answer. Klandicar was the last to see him, near the entrance of the Necropolis. I am forbidden to enter the Necropolis as long as this body draws breath, for good reason. But I must know if my son is in there!'

Harla Dar says 'This...this is not what I had hoped for. My whelp is lost, but I take some comfort in knowing that you helped destroy his killer. Zlandicar has been a blight upon our race since the beginning. Here is your reward, as I promised. It will protect you in more ways than are obvious. Leave me now, it is time to mourn.'
