Then I bask in the sun and read about elven ruins while waiting for the others to finish their tasks.
The book tells of ancient elven ruins that appeared in this area relatively recently, emerging directly from the ground. Upon learning of the emergence of a fragment of one of their civilizations, the elves of Revelon demanded that Lord Darkwood transfer the lands under the Fortress to them, in exchange for a portion of Revelon's territories. However, they received a refusal. The elves were only allowed unhindered study of the ruins. They never took advantage of this permission, considering it humiliating. At the same time, the author describes a preliminary study of the ruins using earth magic. According to these studies, the Tower that appeared above ground is only a small part of the complex, the main part of which is located deep beneath it. The passage in the Tower leading downwards is blocked by a magical door. No alternative way to access the underground complex has been found at this time. The book devotes some attention to similar structures, which are Temples of elven gods. In this chapter, a system of mechanisms consisting of eight levers is described, with which the central part of such Temples is opened.
