The shouts of pilgrims, bards, and scholars cut through the air,
transforming what would have been any other day into one of massacre.
With the looming presence of Kethuru, the Almighty, weighing heavily
upon the Basin of Life - it was found that one loboshigaru pilgrim of
the Tosha Monastery had in fact succumbed to a most certain bloodlust.

Bodies of wandering figures were laid upon the highways, and an
interested Solanis Talnara found the culprit between his next kill.
Soon, more adventurers managed to find their way. With Hyde n'Kylbar
egging him on in his destruction, the pilgrim slipped by the
adventurers, and quickly slew Rahrah, the River Rafter in cold blood.
Many began to pile in to Rahrah's home, trying to calm the pilgrim with
words - however, that seems to only irritate and enrage him more!

While others puzzled about what this enraged loboshigaru meant - some
believing it was a herald of a racial disease - Arath of Gaudiguch
accurately surmised to speak with someone of knowledge: Master Quettle.
With some cryptic words, Quettle told Arath of the Golden Lotus - a
flower from the time of Tosha, the Meditative, founder of the Monastery
- and that to acquire it, he must travel to the tombs of the former
masters.

Not soon after Arath discovered the tombs and the spirits that inhabited
it, did Solanis and his wife, Rika Talnara, travel to speak with
Quettle, and discovered the tombs. The three of them - later assisted by
Kalas Iytha, a rather worried Tully, and an intrigued Lawliet Letara -
worked their way, aiding the spirits of Master Kaleg, Alilak, Aylat, and
Letep, while dodging the loboshigaru who managed to return to the
Monastery, discovered the Golden Lotus and eased the pilgrims mind.

It was discovered that the pilgrim was on a quest to Weeky Pedia, and
once he was true of mind, he asked if you could be taken there. Rika
obliged, and upon arriving, many of the adventurers that the loboshigaru
attacked appear. Sorrowfully, the loboshigaru gave Weeky what he was
quested to do: a stack of ancient pages. Weeky, excited for new
additions, quickly grabbed a book and pasted them in.

And while questions remain of the source of the loboshigaru's bloodlust
- such as how did he happen to succumb to it? Nonetheless, all questions
disappeared upon hearing the recitation of the final chapter in the
History of the Elder Wars: the Book of Meridian.
