Mission:Ephram Sha - Ritual Knives
Ritual Knives
Briefing
As you must already know, the MAGI branch in Galaxy City was destroyed in the recent Shivan attack. The artifacts it held, however, were most certainly not all destroyed, and it seems that a few have made their way into Dark Astoria.
This is most unfortunate, Character. Most of the forces operating in Dark Astoria are capable of putting those artifacts to use, and few of those uses are ones we want to see happen. If you can track them down, we may be able to retrieve them before they can be misused.
- Retrieve the MAGI Artifacts
Excellent. We've detected the traces of three separate artifacts, that appear to have been moved to a nearby network of caves. Hopefully whoever brought them there does not yet understand their use.
Unnecessary Solicitation
Make haste, Character. Every second you delay, the chances of catastrophe grow greater.

Enemies
Ambush! An ambush occurs immediately after obtaining the last artifact.
Legend says that every spell that Erraton ever knew is housed within these spellbound pages. If someone were to ever manage to open the book, they would have access to a near-limitless source of arcane knowledge.
These ashes are not technically those of Corpolo, but of his latest host. If this case were ever opened, the creature would seek out a new one immediately... which would likely end up being the poor fool that opened it.
This large crystal is made entirely of arcane energy. If it remains in one place for too long, it will begin to grow 'roots' in the material world. Given enough time, the roots would spread across the world, growing into a massive crystal forest of arcane power.
