You are refreshed and know that you must now head the shortest route to the Inn to get the feather of the Phoenix to complete your talisman.

You Look to the east and know that you must go into the Shielded Desert. You were not happy with that thought , but knew it was much faster than backtracking and risking the terror of the Dragon's fire.

The desert was always hot..always dry...but it was important to continue as the spirit imprinted the importance into your very being. Before long, you know you need to find the Magick of the Shield that the desert provides so you look toward the South and see there is a small gypsy wagon toddling across the sand.

As you approach the wagon, you are greeted with a cheery old Gypsy that greets you with a toothless smile. He offers you a cup of tea and asks what your plight be.

You exchange pleasantries and relay your story. He winks and hands you a potion and whispers some wisdom about shielding that you know will help you in times ahead. (There is a Shield article on the Ritual Workings board. Find it and choose a shield that you think you will need..then go the general board and post a thank-you to the instructors and say which shield you chose.)

You ride a jaunt in the wagon and soon you see the Chalandor Keep in the distance. You bid your new friend a Blessed Day since he was not going that way, hopped off the wagon. With a deep breath, you head to the Inn that lay a short distance from the Large Capitol of the Isle.
