Adelia Tyrell, Sanctuary Library

Adelia,

I noticed your request for information concerning Zovaldar. While I simply do not have the time at present to provide an essay concerning him-and essays without an ending are so... incomplete-I will promise you a full accounting of what I know of him after the conclusion of this threat, if you assist me in whatever capacity you may now.

I have four queries I would pose to you and your staff. Firstly, why would the former Matron Mother of Traensyr desire Zovaldar's four fell artifacts-a flaming axe, a pair of boots that left a trail of ash, a crown of magical might, and an imprisoned pixie queen? Secondly, is there any mention of these artifacts-or anything like them-in Sanctuary's historical records? Thirdly, Zovaldar is a mummified flame giant-has there been any mention of this creature or anything like it in Sanctuary's past? Fourthly, the formians traded their services to this creature in return for something he offered them; do you or your staff have any insights as to what would compel a hive of formians to serve such a creature?

Please do share this letter with your associates Cayliira and Naradin. I recognize that the three of you likely have no tangible answers to the above questions, but any insights-however slim-might still be invaluable.

-Lieutenant Sunellar

I'll continue to help with whatever efforts are needed.

-A.D.
