Have you heard of Oshar the sorcerer? Of course you have! He's the continent's preeminent magical mind.<BR><BR>I'm his best pupil, destined to continue his research when Oshar enters the Dream.<BR><BR>Help me, and you'll earn goodwill from both the current master sorcerer...and the next one.<NEXTPAGEBUTTON>"What do you need?"</NEXTPAGEBUTTON> I want to demonstrate mastery of the intellect by uplifting the intelligence of the local fauna.<BR><BR>My first efforts focus on the most cunning creature in the refuge: sloths. No, really. From you, I need sloth claws so I can create a potion that will metaphorically "de-claw" them and render them civilized. I’ll write to Oshar that I can start testing the sloth docility potion soon.<BR><BR>Imagine returning years from now to find an entire sloth-based civilization, with sloth religion, sloth culture, a sloth economy...like the ancient empire of the giants, but with sloths. Today sloths, tomorrow the world!
